One Hit Wonder is a novella by Elyssa Patrick I found in my digital TBR. (Must have been sample binging that day?) This is a light contemporary with a higher heat index than I go for but more than enough story to keep it on the romance side of the street…. Read more »

Lord Carew’s Bride by Mary Balogh
You’ve probably noticed that we’ve been pretty bad at posting reviews lately. We’ve all either got stuff going on or we bought new videogames we just can’t seem to stop playing and reading books and writing reviews has just not been happening. I didn’t want to go a full week… Read more »
The Game and The Governess by Kate Noble
Two strikes and we’re out. Something about Kate Noble’s voice doesn’t work for me at all. The Game and The Governess is my second Kate Noble attempt. Previously I failed to love The Summer of You. Although The Game And The Governess uses two of my least favorite tropes (exchanged identities and bets… Read more »
When I Was A Mall Model by Monica Gallagher
I loved When I Was A Mall Model. I’m not even going to pretend otherwise. Back in the way back days of the American 1970’s every middle school girl thought she was going to be a model. (Well, except me. I was absolutely certain I wasn’t, which made me one… Read more »
Three Weeks With Lady X by Eloisa James
Three Weeks With Lady X was not only a DNF read for me, but a Kill It With Fire experience. Yes, James and I have been in the process of a very difficult breakup, and yes, I wish I had read this USA article before trying just one more time… Read more »
The Necromancer Chronicles by Amanda Downum
I was swayed to give this fantasy trilogy a try when I learned that one of the books would have a trans woman pov character. The numerous characters of colour, including several pov characters, were an added bonus. The books are written in third person limited voice. The one character… Read more »
Midnight Crossroad by Charlaine Harris
What happens when a roller coaster author stops delivering that giddy can’t-believe-you’re-still-reading thrill? A DNF at page 123. I generally tear through a Charlaine Harris book in a few hours, reaching the end with the same unsettled feeling I get after inadvertently eating an entire pint of ice cream. Three weeks into Midnight Crossroad, I… Read more »
Trapped At The Altar by Jane Feather
Trapped At The Altar has a street date of July 22nd but I can’t wait. (Sorry, kids.) Jane Feather was highlighted in June by NetGalley. While the synopsis didn’t grab me, the advance chatter did. This is an awful, terrible, no good book with a slut heroine whore? TELL ME MORE! (Well… Read more »
Flight by Kate Christie
Author Jill Sorenson stops by today with a review of a coming-of-age/New Adult f/f book that she really enjoyed. I have no idea why I bought this book. I think I found it on Amazon during one of my endless searches for affordable, well-edited lesbian romance. By the time I… Read more »
All They Need by Sarah Mayberry
I was talking on Twitter yesterday about how books with tattooed heroes with violent tempers are frequently described as “edgy” and how it didn’t make sense to me. How can a violent construction of masculinity be “edgy” when it’s clearly the norm? Wouldn’t a straight hero who’s really into musical… Read more »
