I continue to love the Remington Medical series which is set in North Carolina. It is the same world as the Station Seventeen series. I enjoy seeing some of those characters briefly again. I really enjoy the circle of friends these co-workers have become and how they support each other in the various things happening in […]
Pricked, by new author Scott Mooney, is a really fun idea. It sorta falls into the realm of Shrek, where we are in a fantasy world that makes fun of fairytale tropes while also giving us a brand new story. Briar Pryce is just one of the twenty-something girls living in the Poisoned Apple […]
Covert Vengeance picks up where Stealing Vengeance left off, in the new series, Vengeance. There is a new couple but the overall feel with action and romance is similar. The Valkyries don’t expect to have relationships, to be free enough or trust anyone to stay with them. The setup also mirrors Stealing Vengeance as the […]
I am a big fan of the recent works of Kristan Higgins. These books contemporary romance but they also might be classified as the dreaded women’s fiction (everyone could benefit from this type of book). The reason I say this is because they tackle more realistic social topics than just focusing on the romance. I […]
Fairytale re-telling’s or re-imaginings are totally my jam. I’m always looking for another really good one. Slumber is Sleeping Beauty re-imagined if two princes were sent to wake Aurora at the same time and then needed to figure out who really is her true love. The premise is super promising and a new take, so […]

The Raven’s Mark series is dark and gritty. The main character is Ryhalt and he is a soldier in a long-term war. At the beginning of the third book, Crowfall, he has isolated himself out in the Misery, which is sort of a wasteland partially caused by the war. It was a bit of a […]
Salvation Day is a space opera thriller set in the future. The story is told in alternating chapters by the two main characters. Zahra and Jas are linked by their past and now in the present. They have never met really, but some of the same events are key to both their lives. I had […]
Michael J. Sullivan (MJS) is one of my favorite epic fantasy writers. He is dependable, great at tying threads together and always gives his reader something a little unexpected. Age of Legend is the fourth book in the the Legends of the First Empire series. This is technically a prequel set thousands of years before […]
I really enjoyed Kill the Queen last year and was very excited to read more. I’ve had Protect the Prince for a few months and finally read it. I hoped for a romantic background to the action but it was mostly angst. The gist is assassination attempt, political bs, assassination attempt, political frustration, assassination attempt, […]
