I don’t dabble in BDSM, and I certainly don’t consider myself to be a submissive, but I’ll be damned if Marriage Games didn’t dominate my thoughts during waking hours and my dreams while sleeping. This story is tenacious in its refusal to let me go.
Let me preface this by saying I don’t read a lot of novellas. The length just doesn’t allow enough time to sufficiently develop characters, and the thin plots typically leave me feeling unsatisfied. It’s impossible for me to hold them to the same standards as full-length novels. That said, Fling is the first book I’ve read by Jana Aston, and if she can write a novella this entertaining I’m excited to read one of her full-length novels.
I freely admit I’m one of those greedy readers who looks forward to a good epilogue. I’ll take a HEA whenever I can get one, and the ending in Turbulence is mighty fine. However, it doesn’t have the coveted epilogue!
Ohmygosh! This book! I freely admit I’m an angst whore, but Low takes angst to a whole new level. It is, without a doubt, the most anxiety-producing novel I’ve ever read. At one point I had to reach out and phone a friend. (Thanks, Christy, for the hand holding.)
Dear Penny Reid, You can stop trying to dominate my list of favorite authors now. I get it. Your writing is hilarious, smart, effortless, and super romantic. Given your prolific body of work, it’s just not fair to other romantic comedy authors out there. Now you’ve gone and shoved your brilliance in my face once again with Beard Science.
I’m surprised by how much I enjoyed this. The childhood boyfriend who goes away to college and comes back a changed man plot is nothing new, and I either enjoy or loathe love triangles depending on my mood and the story. Black Swan Affair is decidedly different though. Mystery, backstabbing, and selfless love elevate what could be your typical love triangle into something wonderfully complex and unpredictable.
Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward have delivered another fun and sexy story with Playboy Pilot.
I love Whitney Garcia Williams. Her stories are refreshing and her characters are usually fun, unpredictable, and relatable. I liked the premise of the Mid-Life Love, but my frustration with the main character, Claire, prevented me from loving it.
If you have a weakness for single parent romances, go ahead and exercise that one-click finger right now because The Sexy One features one of the dreamiest dads I’ve ever had the pleasure of drooling over.
Twisted Palace is the highly anticipated conclusion to the New York Times bestselling Royals series. To say that fans have been anxious to get their grabby little hands on this book is a huge understatement.
Audio Book Review My previous Karina Halle reads have involved lots of drama and angst, which made me curious. Can she pull off romantic comedy? Smut proves that the answer is yes—extremely well.
Perhaps my expectations for Thief of Hearts were a tad too high. When I read the synopsis, I had visions of Julia Roberts and George Clooney in Ocean’s Eleven dancing in my head as I envisioned a massive heist/love affair placed in a fine art setting. The book may lack the wow factor I anticipated, but it is still quite charming.
