This is a joint review between Robin and me. We both are big fans of The Invisible Library series since the beginning. The world-building is exceptional, with new worlds in each book since Irene travels. Irene is an awesome character, and all the characters are very well-developed. The writing in these stories is excellent, more […]
ICYMI is a post from my early days of blogging at Yummy Men & KickAss Chicks. You can see the original review here. . This is an anthology of Christmas romances. I think it can be difficult to develop characters sufficiently to care about them in shorter stories. It is also challenging to have the […]
I’m finally reading Christmas and holiday stories. Cowboy under the Mistletoe has a nice intermix of holiday activities along with its being set at this time of year. I had not read the two previous books in the series, which is not my usual way, but I still was able to enjoy this story. The […]
Elemental World is a PNR spin-off series from the Elemental Mysteries which was more urban fantasy following one couple. Elemental World series starts during the Elemental Mysteries but has a different couple in each book. I don’t recommend reading the series out of order – I never do – but with the ongoing story throughout, […]
I am always happy to come back to Silver Springs. There is, however, an overall theme of people making some bad choices or being in bad situations and having to live with the consequences. The school is a key part of helping the very young be in a better place and have improved chances in […]
I enjoy this author and she writes some excellent romantic suspense. I read this since I wanted some holiday themed stories to read for the beginning of December. The romantic suspense portion of Christmas Past was suspenseful and exciting. The characters did have some development with a view to their internal thoughts, rationalizations and justifications. […]
The Heirs of Chicagoland series continues with a new adventure where we get Connor and Elisa spending a lot more time together on a trip out of town. Connor is going to a Pack event and takes her along as his date. They haven’t spent much time, even as friends as adults so an out-of-town […]
I have enjoyed every book in Penny Reid’s Winston Brothers series. Now we are down to Billy. Next to Cletus, he is my heartbreaker. Although the book before this was Beard With Me which was Scarlet and Billy’s early high school years, ending with her leaving town at age 14.. Beard Necessities begins 20 years […]
The Elemental Legacy series builds upon the very beginning which is Elemental Mysteries and then the Elemental World. I would classify Elemental Mysteries and Elemental Legacy as urban fantasy as they deal with one couple primarily, whereas Elemental World is more paranormal romance with a different couple or character in each book. You could read just […]
Here we are in the final book of the Green Valley library series, for now. They are all in Kindle Unlimited. These are set in Tennessee in the town where the Winston Brothers grew up and the library is where Bethany Winston worked. Finley and Zeke both come to town and work at the library. […]
