Review & Excerpt: Us by Sarina Bowen & Elle Kennedy

March 8, 2016 Angela Excerpts, LGBTQ, Reviews, Romance

It seems like I’ve been waiting forever for this sequel to Him, and overall Us is a success. Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy do an admirable job of integrating endearing protagonists, humor, and steam—with a smidge of angst on the side—into an enticing storyline.

Review ♥ Hearts in Darkness by Laura Kaye

March 7, 2016 Angela Reviews, Romance

The truth is I tend to be more lenient in my reviews of novellas. There’s just no way you can pack enough character development and storyline complexity into a book that is under 150 pages. I dive in knowing that it won’t measure up to a full-length novel, so it’s unfair of me to judge it by the same standards. That said, Hearts in Darkness is a well-done, sexy little story.

Review ♥ The Baller by Vi Keeland

March 5, 2016 Angela Reviews, Romantic Comedy, Sports Romance

The Baller has everything I look for in a sports romantic comedy: a ballsy heroine, a cocky athlete, banter up the wazoo, real integration of the sport, and a mature relationship. Placing a checkmark in all those columns makes it seem formulaic; however, the characters really help elevate this story.

Review & Trailer ♥ Licked by Brooke Blaine

March 3, 2016 Angela Reviews, Romantic Comedy, Trailers

Licked is the first book I’ve read by Brooke Blaine, and I’ve got to say I love her writing style. It’s very reminiscent of Alice Clayton in its sexy humor, but with a quirky, irreverent flair.

That’s a Wrap! February 2016

February 29, 2016 Angela Wrap Up

February 2016 was an ARC heavy month, but I managed to sneak in a couple books that have been on my To Be Read List. Luckily, the majority were 4- and 5-star reads. Here’s a wrap-up of my February reviews. February Book Haul I hit the jackpot in the bargain aisles this month, and I bought 12 books. Well, I received a signed copy of The Fall by the lovely Kate Stewart as a gift, so I didn’t actually buy that one. I only paid full price for one book though. The rest cost $4 or under. I love a good bargain! Bring on March!

Review: The Year We Fell Down by Sarina Bowen

February 27, 2016 Angela New Adult, Reviews, Sports Romance

This is such a sweet story. It’s a different type of sports romance where the sport of hockey is integral to the plot, and yet not a single game is played.

Review, Excerpt & Giveaway ♥ The Ground Rules Undone by Roya Carmen

February 25, 2016 Angela Blog Tours, Erotica, Giveaways, Reviews, Romance

The Ground Rules Undone is the thrilling conclusion to The Rule Breakers trilogy. When we left off, Mirella was in one hell of a pickle. Told entirely from her point of view, this story focuses on the consequences of Mirella and Weston deviating from the rules. Unlike the previous books, there’s very little sex, yet the chemistry is still insane in this combustive love triangle.

Review ♥ Sex Love Repeat by Alessandra Torre

February 23, 2016 Angela Erotica, Reviews

Whew! Well, this book is aptly named. Virtually every chapter in the first half contains sex scenes. We’re talking panty melting, grab your fan, look-up-erotica-in-the-dictionary-and-see-this-book’s-cover sex scenes.
