A twist in the classic story leads to a Pride & Prejudice variation story set against the backdrop of Regency London and puts a vulnerable, shy young lady at the heart of matters. I’ve enjoyed a handful of Jann Rowland’s heartwarming, low-angst Austenesque romances and I was particularly eager when I saw that a favorite […]
The Psy-Changeling Trinity the spin off series to Psy-Changeling. Overall, it is like one big series. I didn’t and wouldn’t read the later books without the foundation of the first series. Singh has a style which is a great blend of paranormal romance and urban fantasy. Each book has a romantic couple and we […]
Obviously, I enjoyed everything about this next in the Porter Beck series. The main point of view being a sheriff, with lots of military intelligence training, set in a small town with lots of natural beauty, are all positives. Shades of Mercy has both spies, from China, and drug cartel gangsters from Mexico causing problems […]
The entire Red Winter trilogy all in one great audiobook. This trilogy is steeped in Japanese culture and lore. It follows a young girl, Emi who has always known she would be a vessel for a goddess Amaterasu on earth one day and the sneaky fox she saved who has tricks up his sleeve and […]
I read the first book in the Coyote Run series, The Dog Thief, when I was looking for K9 books and loved it. I saw the series is being released on audio and jumped right in for the second book, Mad Dog Down the Road. The main character Maddie runs a rescue shelter and training […]
I always enjoy a police procedural and new settings. Trouble in Queenstown is a private investigator who used to be a cop. Vandy has moved back to her hometown to deal with her grief and take care of her father as he ages. At first, it seemed somewhat quirky and cliche, more like a cozy […]
Mulan is one of my favorite Disney movies so I looked forward to this retelling. Be forewarned The Night Ends with Fire is not the feel good version. The basics of the plot are similar. The details are much grittier and more misogynistic. This time period allows women nothing. Meilin is to be married off […]
Wow. I love this Lady Sherlock series so much. I started by wanting to write Amazing! Brilliant! in the largest font I can use here. Then I thought about creating a huge graphic. But that just tells you how much I enjoyed it and how impressed I am with this author but not why. I […]
I always enjoy Allison Brennan and was excited to start this new Angelhart Investigation series. I wasn’t able to read the prequel before this first book, but the author’s newsletter assured me that would be fine. I will read it if it ever comes up in my library hold. You’ll Never Find Me has the […]
Not in Love didn’t feel like other Ali Hazelwood books I have read. At first, it felt like a porn over plot type I used to read. Rue and Eli start as a chance hookup and quickly find out they are on opposite sides of a corporate takeover. I was more interested in the corporate […]
