Star Cruise: Chef’s Kiss by Veronica Scott @vscotttheauthor  @veronicascott.bsky.social @sophiarose1816

      A starship five-star chef is forced into a bargain with a demon lord and experiences an extra spicy Halloween night for the ages.  Veronica Scott’s latest entry in her Star Cruise-The Sectors series is a novella-length tale blending paranormal and sci-fi romance in a far future holiday-themed tale that I was eager […]

The Dangerous Damsels series began this world with its witty, hilarious antics.  The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love continues the tradition in a new series in the same world, Love’s Academic. It isn’t necessary to have read the previous books as they are not mentioned at all.  Those books are so fun I wouldn’t miss […]

What if those running the Roman Empire were dragon shifters?  That is the loose premise of Firebird the first book in of the new series, The Fire that Binds.  Juliette Cross has built a new world on the bones of Roman history and their gods.  It is a re-imagining where Minerva, goddess of wisdom, justice, […]

🎧 Scythe & Sparrow by Brynne Weaver @brynneweaver.bsky.social  @ms-brentmoor.bsky.social #EricNolan #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

It has been a wild ride with much murder and mayhem, but Brynne Weaver’s The Ruinous Trilogy has come to a satisfying conclusion with the third and final installment, Scythe and Sparrow.  I loved every minute I spent in the minds of the dark and twisted heroines of the first two books, but I think […]

Star Cruise: Stowaway – Rescue – Golden Token – Thanksgiving by Veronica Scott @veronicascott.bsky.social @sophiarose1816 @vscotttheauthor

      Gathering together novellas and short stories which had once been part of separate anthologies that have gone out of print since their release, Veronica Scott released this slim collection of three novellas and a short story for her The Sectors’ fans.  Each story comes with an author’s explanation for why it was […]

🎧 Leather & Lark by Brynne Weaver @brynneweaver.bsky.social  @ms-brentmoor.bsky.social #EricNolan #LoveAudiobooks @4saintjude

I had so much fun reading Butcher and Blackbird, I could hardly wait to begin Leather and Lark, the second installment in Brynne Weaver’s The Ruinous Trilogy.  It is just as dark, just as swoony, and I loved it just as much.  The trigger warning was, again, hilarious, and should definitely be heeded, because, as […]

I love the Romantic Suspense series. I’ve read them all. I started the series with the first Cincinnati book, with Faith and Deacon.  It was actually #16 overall. Then I went back and read the previous 15 books. I would not jump into this in the middle of a series. One could start at the […]

Star Cruise: Captain’s Story by Veronica Scott @vscotttheauthor  @veronicascott.bsky.social @sophiarose1816

      After the Prequel which told of how they met and their relationship came to be, I was more than ready to move on and get a ‘present’ day story of Maeve the AI and Nebula Zephyr Captain Gil Fleming.  Veronica Scott’s world of far future space and planetary adventure accompanied by sizzling […]
