Accidentally Amy by Lynn Painter @LAPainter @lynnpainter8.bsky.social  @BerkleyRomance @berkleyromance.bsky.social

Lynn Painter is the absolute master at banter.  I  would enjoy her books just for the humor.  The dialogue is generally a bit blunt and sassy.   The characters go a bit wildly silly and add in pop culture sometimes in some of the banter and it’s just fun. It’s meant to be a bit outrageous. […]

I’ve been more attracted to reading cozy fantasy this winter.  I really enjoyed The Teller of Small Fortunes and now,  The Rainfall Market.  The story was written in another language originally and is translated.  The main character is a teenage girl, Serin,  who has many problems disadvantages in her life.  She hears of a ticket […]

I love the Sunrise Cove series which is a newer one.  Not that I don’t love the older series because I do.  This series is set in a beautiful place and has characters which shine.  They have the quirky, realistic foibles one can love. The humor and banter is always enjoyable. Olive is a very […]

This Haunted Heart by SL Prater #SLPrater @booksirens @SnyderBridgeFour #KindleUnlimited

I’m growing to enjoy S.L. Prater and her catalog of books with broken characters and worlds brushed lightly with magic and mysticism.  This Haunted Heart’s main characters are both broken by their shared past and the choices made that destroyed them for the last twenty years they spent apart.  This second chance romance with ghosts […]

The Pets in Space series of anthologies have delivered some of my favorite sci-fi romantic adventures and introduced me to several series that are top reads for me.  I adore how there is a theme of pets and a vast majority of sci-fi worlds and situations.  Like with previous anthologies in the series, I’ll be […]
