Lights, Camera…Monsters by Lila Dubois

Lights, Camera…Monsters by Lila Dubois

3.75 stars — You know what?  I was mostly pleasantly surprised by this one!  I mean, it’s basically a monster erotica…I guess I had pretty low expectations.  But I love me a shy sweet guy, and strangely, that’s what I got in Luke.  Well, shy meets super fucking dominant in bed, but that works too. […]

Lost Girls by Merrie Destefano

Lost Girls by Merrie Destefano

3.5 stars — This book had a lot of ups and downs, but it mostly pulled it in in the end. I will admit that I was initially intrigued by the mystery…but then I started not really liking or connecting with Rachel and for a good chunk of the beginning-middle I kinda just wanted to […]

Hiding Lies by Julie Cross

Hiding Lies by Julie Cross

4.5 stars — Oh dude!!  This book took me through the ringer.  I swear, my poor hubby.  I was about to start reading again, and gave a huge anxiety induced sigh and my hubby made the mistake of asking me what’s wrong…and after I finished explaining how I wasn’t sure of this person’s motive, and […]

Bring Me Their Hearts by Sara Wolf

Bring Me Their Hearts by Sara Wolf

4.5 stars — You know what?  That was totally lived up to my high expectations for a fantasy book from Ms. Wolf.  I was honestly worried it wouldn’t, which is why I kept avoiding reading it.  But nope, it was chock full of the same fantastic snarkiness that I’ve come to expect…mixed with a fascinating […]

The Purest Hook by Scarlett Cole

The Purest Hook by Scarlett Cole

4 stars — I don’t know, this one just worked for me.  I really loved that even though Dred and Pixie were seriously SO DIFFERENT, there was an undeniable connection and attraction between them that they couldn’t help exploring. This book definitely suffered from moments where I was like “OMG, investigate that!  Doesn’t that seem crazy??”  […]

Flashed by Zoey Castile

Flashed by Zoey Castile

4 stars — I loved the first half of this book, it just hit all of my reading buttons, you know?  There’s something about a damaged man and a strange friendship that develops without seeing one another that just…it’s a guilty pleasure.  I will admit that it got a bit slow for a bit, but […]

Not Your Average Fairytale by Chantele Sedgwick

Not Your Average Fairytale by Chantele Sedgwick

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — LOVED IT! It was different and refreshing…the characters developed feelings for each along the way instead of insta-love (which I don’t mind, but it’s nice to have a balance). And the paranormal world was well-built and interesting! I especially love that the ending wasn’t a cliffhanger, but a solid ending […]

Nocturnal by Chelsea M. Cameron

Nocturnal by Chelsea M. Cameron

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — I must say that this book broke the mold for me for paranormal romance. For one, the romance was really slow and in some ways more realistic b/c it started out with an innate curiosity about the other…something that tugged them together, for reasons they could not explain, and made […]

Muses & Melodies by Rebecca Yarros

Muses & Melodies by Rebecca Yarros

4.5 stars — Wow.  This was exactly the kind of rockstar romance I was really looking forward to.  There was a rawness about it that just had me desperate to find out how things were going to turn out.  But it was married with a sass and humour that I’ve come to know and love […]

In Service of Love by Laurel Greer

In Service of Love by Laurel Greer

3.5 stars — There were so many things I absolutely LOVED about this book, but it was also missing something to push it over the top, kwim? I am in LOVE with Asher.  He was unique, adorable, almost too good to be true.  He swoonily always said the right things when it came to his […]
