I’ve really loved the Lost Fleet and spin off series by this author. They have action with military battle, along with military politics and the morality decisions of battles. The Doomed Earth series has the military and politics with its fast paced action but also a romance. It’s not a romance novel more a sideline […]
When you are the monster, how can you trust someone will come to save you. I Am Made of Death is the third book set in the world of The Whispering Dark (TWD). It is a stand alone, however a few of the characters from TWD make and appearance and play a role so as […]
I needed to figure out a way to start reading series where I am not current or the series is finished but haven’t read them yet. So it’s a way to commit myself to read my backlist, particularly series. I have been wanting to read the Brothers Sinister series for awhile after reading […]
The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). This is a collection of freebies I have read which are in the romance genre. I start with the Boys of the Bayou series since I have the first two books in the series. The theme in this series […]

As usual, Stephanie Burgis has created a charming whimsical story. It took me a little bit to get into the characters. But Fabian / Felix was so kind and earnest, both Saskia and I appreciated him. His acceptance of the crows, trolls and goblins was endearing. Saskia seemed scattered at first. She took so much […]
I’ve really enjoyed the Emily Wilde series. Emily is the heart of the story and yet she is bookish and devoted to her study of the different Fae and their stories. She has strong opinions and has made some great friends particularly among the common fae. Now she comes with Wendell to his kingdom as […]
Runaway brothers, a treasure map, fortune hunters, reunited family, and a gentle romance in exciting post-Gold Rush California. Mary Connealy is settled in and writing strong frontier era slow-burn romance with inspirational themes and I’m there for it. Whispers of Fortune is the series opener of the Golden State Treasure series with a tie-in with […]
The Wraith King, the first book of the Rise of Northgall, is a romantasy that is more heavily invested in the romance than the fantasy. I think this is important to mention as I will let romances get away with some things that I would never let fantasy get away with. The Wraith King is sort […]
