The Governess Game by Tessa Dare

The Governess Game by Tessa Dare

4.5 stars — I can’t decide if I liked this book more than the first, or just the same?  I think I might have enjoyed it even more!!  Which is yay!!! Mary Jane Wells continued to do a fabulous job with narration.  I occasionally found it hard to determine the speaker, specifically because she would […]

Meet Cute Club by Jack Harbon

Meet Cute Club by Jack Harbon

4 stars — OK, this was just freaking adorable.  And I learned a new romance book term — a cinnamon roll!!!  I LOVE CINNAMON ROLLS!!  Both the actual baking treat and the adorable heroes!!!  BRING THEM ON!! Ahem.  Anyways.  I thought this was just exactly what I needed for a fun romance.  Both Jordan and […]

The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare

The Duchess Deal by Tessa Dare

4.5 stars — I’m not a historical romance reader…I just don’t gravitate towards it.  But damn, I am definitely putting Tessa Dare on my list of “always take a chance on her”!!  I LOVED this one! I thoroughly enjoyed Ms. Wells narration — even the male POV as well!  Sometimes it was hard to initially […]

Real Men Knit by Kwana Jackson

Real Men Knit by Kwana Jackson

3 stars — I was so excited for this book.  1) Guy knitters??  Yes please!  My hubby is a sexy male knitter, so I’m all over that.  2) Look at that cover!  3) #ownvoices book with main characters of colour??  WOOP! But…well…I kinda had to push myself to finish this book, and if it hadn’t […]

Love in Deed by L.B. Dunbar

Love in Deed by L.B. Dunbar

3.5 stars — This was a tricky book where there was a LOT to it, a lot of depth in parts, but there was enough disconnect from what I want personally (as a reader), that it may just not have been the best fit for me…if that makes any sense. I had a hard time […]

Always a Bridesmaid by Cindi Madsen

Always a Bridesmaid by Cindi Madsen

4.5 stars — The banter and playfulness between Violet and Ford was BAR NONE my favourite part of this book.  It just delighted me the witty rejoinders they would come up with.  I laughed out loud at a few of them.  They both had stellar senses of humour. I felt for the number that Violet’s ex […]

Arctic Bite by N.J. Walters

Arctic Bite by N.J. Walters

3.5 stars — This book was definitely entertaining, but it was missing just…something to make it a true hit for me.  I’m still having problems concentrating, so maybe I *gasp* need to take a break from reading.  *sigh* Honestly?  I actually really loved Alexei.  I don’t know if he’ll be many people’s favourites, but he […]

Dirty Charmer by Emma Chase

Dirty Charmer by Emma Chase

4 stars — I totally didn’t realize this was a spin off from the Royally series!  That made my heart happy, and honestly I don’t know why Wessco in the blurb didn’t clue me in, but I guess I just wasn’t thinking.  It was great to get glimpses of the other happy couples in this one, […]

Knox by Brenda Rothert

Knox by Brenda Rothert

3.5 stars — *sigh*  These books are super fast to gobble up, and I do enjoy that in some ways.  But it does mean that, again, not a lot of time is given to certain plot points to really expand on the emotional impact.  In this case it was Knox’s father, and Reese’s healing. Knox […]
