Forrest for the Trees by Kilby Blades

Forrest for the Trees by Kilby Blades

4.5 stars — Well shit, that was good to the last drop my friends! Sierra was a delightful heroine, which is kind of a weird thing to say because she’s a bit closed off on the surface.  She was smart, thoughtful, hardworking, and had a genuine love for her job that you could feel.  I […]

Code of Ethics by April White

Code of Ethics by April White

4.5 stars — OK, I’m just going to say it.  This is my favourite series in the Smartypants Romance Universe.  It never lets me down.  It always brings so much more than just a romance (which, there’s nothing wrong with romance — I fucking LOVE romance…it’s all I read).  But seriously, it introduces me to […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
