Lauren’s Barbarian by Ruby Dixon

Lauren’s Barbarian by Ruby Dixon

4.5 stars — I LOVED the introduction of a whole new setting and new clans.  This one was super suspenseful with all that was going on.  In some ways it reminded me strongly of the first IPB book, with the inability to communicate.  Sometimes I have a hard time suspending my disbelief for how they […]

Barbarian’s Tease by Ruby Dixon

Barbarian’s Tease by Ruby Dixon

3 stars — I was NOT a fan of Brooke.  I was bummed that we finally got Taushen’s story, and he ended up with Brooke.  Which is not to say that she’s horrible, but she had a lot of horrible human moments in this book, and it wasn’t the love story I wanted for Taushen.  In […]

Afterglow by Aria Wyatt

Afterglow by Aria Wyatt

4.5 stars — Wow, this book was an intense rollercoaster ride.  And I mean that in more than one way. The book started off solidly, I was pretty hooked and intrigued.  Then I had some…concerns and my interest was kinda conditional (I’ll get there).  BUT!!!  Then the plot fucking took off and I was all […]

Fireproof by Delancey Stewart

Fireproof by Delancey Stewart

3.5 stars — This book had a super strong start, I was so intrigued by both characters, I connected with them, and I was excited to see them break through each other’s walls.  And for the most part, I got great stuff…but for me, it dragged a bit and I got impatient with our MCs. […]

Safeguard by Stephanie Rose

Safeguard by Stephanie Rose

4 stars — In some ways this book was really easy to read.  There wasn’t a lot of conflict, just bits here and there.  It was kind of nice to get a lot of happy getting together time.  They resisted and resisted because of their pasts, but once they gave in I really enjoyed seeing them […]

The Duchess War by Courtney Milan

The Duchess War by Courtney Milan

4.5 stars — Well shit…I think maybe I do like historical romance.  At least when it’s in the right hands.  And look at that, I’ve added another author to my list. Seriously though, I really really really enjoyed this!  Minnie was a delightful heroine — so complex.  She was bright, could be feisty, down to […]

The Governess Affair by Courtney Milan

The Governess Affair by Courtney Milan

4.5 stars — Wow, this one really surprised me!  I don’t even know why exactly, it’s not like I had low expectations necessarily.  I think I was a bit wary of it initially based on not knowing what happened to Serena until part way through (not usually a fan).  But I just kept getting sucked […]

One Good Reason by Sarah Mayberry

One Good Reason by Sarah Mayberry

4 stars — I wasn’t sure how I was going to appreciate this book with their initial antagonistic relationship…especially because I just finished a book recently where it played a large role in not being a fave.  And it’s not going to be a Sarah Mayberry fave either, but for some reason I could tolerate their […]
