Dire Straits by Melissa Pearl & Anna Cruise

Dire Straits by Melissa Pearl & Anna Cruise

Dead Set by Melissa Pearl & Anna Cruise

Dead Set by Melissa Pearl & Anna Cruise

3 stars — This one was more light on the romance, focused more heavily on the plot and mystery surrounding Alaina’s brother’s death.  I was enjoying the mystery for the first half, but unfortunately I kept wondering about certain things, and I couldn’t get out of my own head.  I was still fully entrenched in my […]

4.5 stars — Another fabulous beta read!! DAMN!!  Like holy shitsnacks people.  I was curious about this book from the first moment Ms. Higginson hinted at the blurb in her street team.  I mean, seriously…how can you not be intrigued by that??  It was both everything I was expecting and totally took me by surprise […]

4.5 stars — OMG you guys, I was sucked into this one from the first chapter all the way to the very end of the epilogue.  I didn’t want it to end!!  And this love mostly came down to the characters.  I am in love with both Juliet and Felix!!  I tend to develop book […]

First Grave on the Right (Charley Davidson #1) by Darynda Jones

And it’s her job to convince them to “go into the light”. But when these very dead people have died under less than ideal circumstances (i.e. murder), sometimes they want […]
