First, the title caught my attention, then that eye-catching cover, and then the blurb sealed the deal. I was all set to have a good time with the start of a new cozy mystery series. Diversity, family, food, and murder- what more could I ask? Arsenic and Adobo introduces the main character, Lila Macapagal, a […]
After encountering Luther Pell and Raina Kirk from the beginning of the Burning Cove series, I was semi disappointed they hadn’t gotten their own story yet and seemed to be relegated to fascinating side characters as new characters were introduced. Not that I didn’t love these new stories and characters supremely well. Imagine my excitement […]
Edinburgh is whispering behind their hands about Kiera once again, but this time it because her name is tied to the town’s most infamous criminal, Bonnie Brock Kincaid. This is a series I eagerly jump on each new installment for the colorful characters, the riveting plot, and the well-drawn historical backdrops. A Wicked Conceit is […]
The Heirs of Chicagoland series continues with the gang back in Chicago. I appreciated the last book because it gave us more time with Connor and Elisa alone, so we got to see their relationship building. Their relationship continues to develop in Shadowed Steel. Her friend, Lulu, still seems silly but loyal. The primary story […]
I loved The Roommate so I decided to continue the Roommate series. The primary character is Naomi Grant who was Josh’s partner when they were porn stars. I could imagine how much more difficult it is to be a female sex performer. I appreciated getting Naomi’s history of how she ended up in the business […]
There were so many things st in Dead Space. Our main character, Hester, is an investigator after being on a space ship which was hit by terrorists, and the rescuing company has her in a work contract to pay for her life-saving but mediocre medical treatments. She is a talented builder of artificial intelligence but her […]
Hot Mama is the second book in Jennifer Estep’s Bigtime series. This series follows superheroes in a fictional town of Bigtime. In this book, we follow Fiona Fine, aka Fiera. She’s a fashion designer by day and superhero with fire powers by night. She’s also a member of the Fearless Five, led by her father. […]
Caressed by Ice by Nalini Singh is the third book in the Psy-Changeling series. The series delivers a hot paranormal romance with an overall arc involving Psy, humans and shifters. In Caressed by Ice, the roles are reversed and our Psy is male. Intense and filled with banter Singh gave me a couple I could sink my […]
Quiet in Her Bones is a different genre than her long established series. Nalini Singh seems to be branching out into these mystery thrillers which are standalone and I’m really enjoying it. The story is set in New Zealand (as was the previous one) and includes some different cultural groups. Our point of view for […]
I like the small town characters in the Wyoming Cowboy series. We didn’t get too many updates on characters / couples from other books. We did see the Jack’s brothers and their women briefly. Thankfully, we did not see Greg, unless he was the unnamed realtor. I read these books mostly out of order and […]
