You know what more books need…More sentient inanimate objects. Some of my favorite things in some of the other fantasies I’ve read have been things like Nightblood, the sentient sword in the Cosmere series of Brandon Sanderson. Beauty and the Beast had an entire castle full of sentient everyday items – that was awesome. So […]
Occasionally the Audible daily deal tempts me to give a chance to a book I wouldn’t normally try, like say a story about the administrative assistant at a company for superheroes. I’m a girl who loves a deal and so when this was the daily deal I picked it up. I mean, who isn’t looking […]
What do you get yourself for your birthday when you are going to be a thirty-year old virgin? Well, a night with a man, of course. No sense sitting on the shelf, never touched, when there is a perfectly good Madam who can provide just the man to see to your curiosities. Except what if […]
Rose Marshall is far from sweet sixteen and never been kissed. She has been sixteen for over 60 years now, so kissing is the least of it. She is the phantom prom date, the girl in the green silk gown and depending on which ghost story you are listening to, she is either a protector […]
I Think I Love You is the finale to the Stiletto/Oxford series by Lauren Layne, which also just happens to be my favorite contemporary romance series to date. It is bittersweet to say farewell to all the characters I’ve come to know and adore. It is also the friends to lovers trope I usually crave […]
A woman trapped in a harem for years has come home, only to marry a man believed to have killed not one, but two wives, well count me in since that isn’t something I see in historical romance ever. I’m not one to be really caught up on how true to the time something is […]
The tears are still in my eyes when I think of this book. Dang you Michael J. Sullivan, dang you. Age of War encompasses all the emotions one would feel during a war. Not everyone makes it through battles and some sacrifices are as beautiful as they are heartbreaking. This is a wonderful continuation to […]
A tale of underwater changelings and the human who volunteered to be their science experiment. Bowan has been a character I’ve had mixed feelings about in prior books of this Psy-Changeling Trinity series. I didn’t get all of Bo’s motivations to put a dangerous experimental chip in his head that protects him from psy manipulation […]
Two similar and yet different romances told side by side is a cute premise. The contemporary couple discovering the history of another romantic couple was interesting. I couldn’t wait to find out more about the history and potential identity of ‘The Siren’ depicted in a much sought after painting series. The problem with having two […]
Sparrow Hill Road is a bit disjointed. Now I’m not sure if that is literary genius because the main character is a ghost and so her life/afterlife IS a little disjointed time-wise or because that is just the nature of this collection of stories. Rose is dead and she has been for about sixty years […]
