5 stars — I don’t know what it is about Ms. Bowen and this world, but I’m seriously loving it… and loving where it’s going with this spin off. So many possibilities!! Eric and Alex are both delightful and easy to connect with. Alex is so hardworking and brilliant, it really comes across in the […]
Favorite Quote: There’s a sad beauty to this place, like a rainbow in an oil slick. I don’t know what draws me to these dark romances, maybe its that loves seems to almost always redeem them in the end. Whatever the reason this is by far the BEST dark romance I have ever read. Callie […]
I’m not very familiar with japanese mythology so this was pretty new to me. The title, cover art and blurb really pulled my attention in. The story was so rich and descriptive and filled with many traditions that were explained in great detail. The emotional bonds the characters develop so intense and serious yet playful […]

4.5 stars — I’m having a hard time getting my thoughts together and out of my head, this book just shook me like that. I didn’t bawl in like I was expecting to…and I think all the warnings and such made me wary of this book, so my reading of it was very drawn out. But […]
Favorite Quotes: “I was the arts and entertainment writer for an online news site but they just laid off most of us in order to concentrate on video. Something quick and easy that doesn’t require any thought to absorb.” “Sounds like a metaphor for the current state of the world.” We’re so imperfect, ye see. […]
This book immediately pulled me in with the dark undertones of both the characters and the plot itself. It was mysterious and addicting. Callie seems broken and unable to deal with the traumas that she experienced at such a young age. When nothing else seemed to work she turns to the bargainer to ease her […]
3.5 stars — Well…. I enjoyed myself, but not as much as I was expecting to. First, the presence of dual narrators confused me as the book went on with only Charlie’s POV. So just FYI, we only get Duke’s POV in the epilogue. Despite that, I really enjoyed Ms. Hart’s narration in this one. […]
4.5 stars — I had a few hiccups with this book (which was not helped by my reading of it being broken up during travel/vacation), but despite those hiccups I still really enjoyed myself! It was steamy, it was funny, it was heartfelt and made me cry…so I’m giving it an extra half a star […]
