Review: An Unnatural Vice (Sins of the Cities #2) by K.J. Charles
My favorite thing about this series is the overlapping mystery, in which each of the romances develop as a part of that plot. Charles’ talent for writing truly shows as each book in this trilogy feels complete even without the over-arching story yet solved.

Review: An Unseen Attraction (Sins of the Cities #1) by K.J. Charles
Thanks to real-life drama dragging me down, I’m back on a kick where I just want to read about happy endings. Therefore, K.J. Charles is the perfect author for me to binge-read right now. I’m so glad that a friend recommended that I check out the Sins of the Cities trilogy next, and I read…

For the next two months or so, please enjoy this ride through my adventures with the excellent writing of author K.J. Charles. This novella was a delightful read, perfect for a quiet…

Review: Escaping Solitude (Escape #2) by Sara Dobie Bauer
Disclaimer: I received an ebook in exchange for an honest review. The moment I finished part one of the Escape Trilogy, Escaping Exile, I was already clamoring to the author that I needed part two right away. Of course, having completed part two, I’m begging for the conclusion immediately. While some middles of stories or trilogies…

Review: Counterpoint (Twisted Wishes #2) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I am friends with the author; however, I purchased this ebook for full price. My favorite thing about this series is that it doesn’t follow the traditional romance script. While the story is inherently about the evolving relationship between two characters, the big climactic moment is not the two characters breaking up because one…

Review: Ouroboros (Circuit Fae #2) by Genevieve Iseult Eldredge
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend; however, I purchased a hardcopy version of this book for full price. Unfortunately, life got into the way of me devouring this book as quickly as I did the first one in the series. However, the characters and action are vivid enough that I never missed a beat…

Review: Perfect Day by Sally Malcolm
Disclaimer: I received a free electronic copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. Having never read the original Austen novel, Persuasion, this book is based on, I was a bit tentative when Malcolm reached out to me and asked for a review. However, she knew that I’ve been on…

Review: Born to Love Wild edited by Cara McKinnon
Disclaimer: I received an electronic advanced reader copy of this anthology in exchange for an honest review; I consider the editor and some of the contributors friends. Normally I keep my short story reviews, well, short, and only call out two books when I review anthologies (favorite story and story I’d like to see expanded…

Review: A Gentleman Never Keeps Score (Seducing the Sedgwicks #2) by Cat Sebastian
I guess I’m a bit lucky coming to this book as a reader who doesn’t have a lot of experience with “Regency” romances. To me, this is merely an unexpected romance set in an historical era, so I was a lot more forgiving of aspects of the plot that seemed to bother other readers based…

Review: “The Unexpected Infatuation” by Sara Dobie Bauer
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend; however, I purchased this short story ebook for full price. I wasn’t sure about this short story at first. I’m not keen on the idea of anyone cheating in a relationship, nor do I particularly find the “gay for you” trope appealing. The writing of this story, however,…

Review: Unmasked by the Marquess (Regency Impostors #1) by Cat Sebastian
The most interesting and appealing thing about this book is that it did not follow what I’ve come to realize is the traditional romance plot structure. I thought I knew exactly how this book was going to go. I was completely wrong, and I loved it all the more for it.

Review: Syncopation (Twisted Wishes #1) by Anna Zabo
Disclaimer: I consider the author a friend; however, I purchased this ebook for full price. I’m one of those people who gets goosebumps from listening to music that affects me. Reading about the music in this novel, the way it’s described and the way it connects the two heroes, literally made the hair on my…

Review: Lord & Master (The Billionaires #3) by Emma Holly
I had a great time reconnecting with my favorite trio, but this book threw me for a bit of a loop. Not in a bad way, whatsoever. But it was a distinctly different sort of story than its predecessor. Part of what I loved about Beck & Call was that the three characters grow into a…
