Forever Enchanted by Maggie Shayne

Forever Enchanted by Maggie Shayne

2 stars — First things first, I got lazy and didn’t contact Amazon to force whatever update to whatever latest version I could get (now entitled By Magic Enchanted).  So this cover above, this is the version I read, and I truly think it’s a pretty early one.  Honestly, I don’t think the blurb on […]

By Magic Beguiled by Maggie Shayne

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4 stars — ON REREAD: 3.5 stars — Since this was one of my earliest indie Kindle reads, I really wasn’t sure how it was going to be rereading it over a decade later.  And while I definitely didn’t get as sucked in or emotionally invested, it actually wasn’t as bad as I […]

On the Otherside Duology by D.G. Swank

On the Otherside Duology by D.G. Swank

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 3.5 stars — OK, that was actually pretty entertaining! I had some problems here and there with the science and concept, but if I just let go of that crap, it was easy to get sucked into the story. With the prologue at the beginning, I was able to easily guess what the […]

Love in Tune by Bria Quinlan

Love in Tune by Bria Quinlan

3 stars — Knowing this was in one of those charity anthologies before helped me to know what to expect — which is a short story, not even a novella.  Just a fun little taste.  And it went okay. The problem was that I didn’t really fully understand the conflict between Melissa and Kyle, like […]

Out of Time by April White

Out of Time by April White

5 stars — Since I’d read the box set of the first 3 books and they weren’t updated with the new epilogues, this was the first time I was able to read them.  I kind of loved getting a Ringo-related summary and then getting to see the epilogues in a row like that, it really […]

Southern Kicks by Cassie Mae

Southern Kicks by Cassie Mae

3.5 stars — This was a pretty cute little story, dealing with topics of life change and grief, but ultimately still left me feeling light.  There were moments that I wish I had understood the changes more, but I think that was partly because I was distracted while reading. I appreciated that both Austin and […]

Smut by Karina Halle

Smut by Karina Halle

3.5 stars — There were parts of this book that were fantastic, but alas I think this author and I just aren’t quite a match.  For all that this one is billed as a romantic comedy, I didn’t really laugh that much…mismatch.  And as I’m sure you’re tired of reading and wondering why I still […]

Jasper Vale by Devney Perry

Jasper Vale by Devney Perry

4.5 stars — This one started off solid, and I definitely enjoyed the wildness that was their night in Vegas.  Things got a little sticky after that for a bit, but I was still enjoying myself.  But at a certain point about halfway through the book it just really shot up, and I loved the […]

Awkward Love by Riley Hart

Awkward Love by Riley Hart

4.5 stars — OK, this one was absolutely fucking adorable, and I loved it from start to finish. Jameson was so cute and awkward and nerdy, he was just delightful.  He was also brilliant, thoughtful, and caring. Honestly?  Will was the surprise hero for me.  He had that facade of cockiness, just like his friend […]

Stupid Love by Riley Hart

Stupid Love by Riley Hart

4.5 stars — This one started out cute, but I also wasn’t necessarily connecting with their bantering as well as I’d hoped…it was a 3.5 star type book.  But about half way through this book totally skyrocketed into 5 star territory for me, and I loved the ending!  So I settled on something in between. […]
