Emily Henry and Julia Whelan are favorites and really bring characters and worlds to life. Great Big Beautiful Life in a way similar to other books is a character growth and love story. Alice goes to see a wealthy woman who she found after she disappeared 20 years ago after her husband died. The husband […]
I’ve enjoyed the Library trilogy. In the first book, Livira and Evar meet and get to know each other. They find that although their species are at war, they can love each other. They are separated at the end, Livira amd Malar end up as assistants and goes back in time to help Evar and […]
The Molly the Maid series is delightful as a character study. The mysteries and plot lines are not too complex. Some of the characters might be seen as cliche. But not Molly. Molly is unique and so hard-working and positive. I would recommend reading the series in order for the character development. We get two […]
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 […]
My current favorite genre is mysteries. I’ve always enjoyed this author and narrator so I was happy to try them in a new genre for them. The start was a bit slow since some of the characters were over the top cliché which, honestly, I accept more easily in paranormal romance than I do in […]
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 […]
I had always wanted to read this author and really enjoyed Killers of a Certain Age. I was thrilled the Killers of a Certain Age would continue as a series. The women seemed to be retired without being erased after the last adventure about two years ago. We have Helen, Natalie, Mary Alice and Billie. […]
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 […]
I really enjoy the STEM aspects of the romances by Ali Hazelwood. Deep End has two other aspects. First, the main character Scarlet is a competitive athlete at the college and Olympic level, as is her love interest. Second, she and her partner are both fans of BDSM. I have read much more dark BDSM […]
I love the Molly the Maid series. Molly is unique and so hard-working and positive. Her practical attitude and hard work, along with honesty have seen her promoted to head maid. She has developed personal relationships with staff, her boss, Mr. Preston (her grandfather and her boyfriend, Juan Manuel. In The Mistletoe Mystery, we are […]
