★★★★ @jeffekennedy #TheStormPrinccessandtheRavenKing The last pairing of childhood friends in the Heirs of Magic series is brutal. Salena and Rhyian were the first of their set of friends to match together. Sometimes when you find your right soulmate early, you might not be ready for it. Rhyian's lack of maturity damages a potentially beautiful relationship beyond repair. Honestly, Salena should have walked away and never looked back. What Rhyian did is kind of unforgivab

@megelison @HarperCollins #NumberOneFan ABOUT THE BOOK: A headlong rush of a thriller/horror that is Misery for Millennials, about a bestselling author who is abducted by her biggest fan and must figure out who he is, where she is, and how to survive and escape, set against the backdrop of fan and convention culture, the literati and the #metoo movement. Bestselling fantasy author Eli Grey gets into a cab without checking it's hers, and unquestioningly accepts a drink from th

★★★½ @joelysue #EvilEyed The conclusion to Her Irish Treasure ties up all loose ends. Riann's entire life comes together as her stolen memories start to surface. missing pieces start to paint a very ugly picture of what happened to her and why she is the current treasure keeper. Lately, the books Ms. Burkhart has written feature black and white when it comes to good versus evil. This is different than some of her books I loved where it paints an antihero in a questionable

★★★★★ @daniellemwong @RAPublishing #LastLiarStanding #MustRead Thirteen secrets seem to be a lot of secrets to remember. Is it a large number or a small one? I never thought about it until reading this book. Last Liar Standing came into my purview via Red Adept Publishing's email. I generally do not read pure mystery/suspense/thriller, but this cover caught my attention. Then I actually read the blurb which intrigued me. For long-time followers, you know my MO is to go

★★★★★ @Mercys_Garage #SoulTaken #NetGalley My mind is blown. So much happens in this latest book in the series and I thoroughly enjoyed every chapter of it. This should not be read as a standalone. At least read the last 3 or 4 books preceding this book to experience the full effect and understand some of the references. *nudge* (keels over laughing). Mercy cannot get a break. The fae, witches, vampires, and werewolves just seem to want to make her life complicated. I

★★★ ½ @Becca_Zanetti #HolidayRescue Returning to the Albertini family, this one is actually a cute holiday one all about Quint instead of Anna. A cousin of Anna, Quint is best described as an adrenaline junkie. He makes his job sound super boring and staid. What he really does and what he says he does is totally different. I kind of like a guy who doesn't brag about his awesomeness. Heather Davis is a well-prepared hiker who finds herself in a dire mishap. Fortunately f

★★★★ @kezarthur #BeneathaDarkeningMoon #TBRPile This can be read as a standalone. I read the first book several years ago and wanted to read about the twin, Savannah. Ms. Arthur's foreword explains that this book is not in the Riley series but is in fact its precursor. This I can definitely see and I like it. Savannah is a ranger who is trying to keep the peace for her people - werewolves. When a brutal murder occurs, her unresolved past comes to bite her. Can see a bit o

#FriendshipDayonRosyLane #RoseElaine #WomensFiction A genre I do not usually read, I picked up this short story for a slice of life moment in Rosy Lane. From what I can tell, this is a short story in an established series featuring an idealistic place called, Rosy Lane. To avoid spoilers, I will focus on my general feeling about this book. The author is new to me, Ms. Elaine. The concepts she puts in this book are sweet and completely unrealistic for a jaded businesswoman

★★★★ @jeffekennedy #RoguesPawn #ReRelease Catching up on prolific writer Ms. Kennedy is a challenge I seem to be losing. I am not sure if I am sad about losing because it just means there are so many more delightful books for me to read. From what I understand, this is her first book published over a decade ago. Whilst I knew who Ms. Kennedy was from a kinky author perspective, I do not believe I fully appreciated her roots in fantasy. Comparing her early works to her more

★★★ #TheGeekJob #ThrowbackReview Has it been 4 years already since Shameless? My first and only trip to Shameless was in 2018. I came home with over 50 books. It is a good thing I packed an empty suitcase to ensure I had all that I could bring all my newfound treasures home. Ms. Langlais is an author I have read before going to the book convention so I was very excited to see her in person. I ended up getting this book whilst I was there. Anything romance with computers
