#Awestruck by Sariah Wilson

#Awestruck by Sariah Wilson

4 stars — This one had the opposite effect of the previous two books…I spent a lot of time wary and annoyed with the decisions that Ashton was making early in the book, but she redeemed herself and the ending was satisfying!!  So weird. I saw a few reviewers mentioning how they feel like Evan […]

On the Brink of Passion by Tamsen Parker

On the Brink of Passion by Tamsen Parker

4 stars — Quite a few of the books in this series start off in such a strange manner wrt the romance…and this one was not an exception.  I was initially super uncomfortable with the arrangement between Beckett and Jubilee.  It was awkward, and not hot, and just…fucked up.  But here’s what’s funny.  It was awkward […]

Moonlighter by Sarina Bowen

Moonlighter by Sarina Bowen

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 […]

Power Play by Maria Luis

Power Play by Maria Luis

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.  […]

Fire on the Ice by Tamsen Parker

Fire on the Ice by Tamsen Parker

3.5 stars — I will admit I was a bit concerned when our MCs jumped right into bed, and what followed were a lot of very descriptive and hot sex scenes, with only sprinklings of emotions (mostly leftover from their previous encounter).  I guess I was expecting a steamy romance, and really got more an […]

Superfan by Sarina Bowen

Superfan by Sarina Bowen

5 stars — Welp, it’s official.  I think I have a new favourite Sarina Bowen hero.  Also, this book was amazeballs. Silas is….SWOONTASTIC.  He is everything I LOVE in a fictional book boy.  He’s got some major beta boy vibes going on, though I suppose he’s a bit more gamma…but I’m gonna group him as […]

Luca by Brenda Rothert

Luca by Brenda Rothert

4 stars — This was a strange one for me, b/c I loved both Luca and Abby’s individual stories, and their eventual together story, but it took me a bit to be invested in their romance…but I was still satisfied in the end. I was so intrigued by Luca and his situation when we met […]

Home Run by Heidi McLaughlin

Home Run by Heidi McLaughlin

3 stars — This book started off pretty good, even with the insta-attraction and fast moving feelings.  But unfortunately the characters didn’t behave consistently, and I got a little bit cranky with them. At the start of this book Cooper comes across really earnest, hard-working, and sweet!  I mean, there were some moments during training […]

Fumbled by Alexa Martin

Fumbled by Alexa Martin

3.5 stars — Another book that brought me a lot of joy, but again…had a few tiny moments that made me cringe.  And I will admit that reading this one directly following reading book 1, I did notice some similarities of jokes on occasion…not often, but there was at least one memorable instance. Let’s get […]
