Audiobook Review ♥ Mercy by Debra Anastasia

Audiobook Review ♥ Mercy by Debra Anastasia

February 25, 2019 Angela Audiobook, Contemporary, Reviews, Romance

I was looking for a book by a “new to me” author and stumbled upon Mercy. It has high ratings, but I was on the fence about reading it because I don’t like my romance on the super dark side. Don’t give me a book full of kidnapping and torture and then try to make me fall in love with the victimizer. Zachary Webber and Muffy Newtown narrate the audiobook, though, and I love them hard so I figured it was worth a shot. I was pleasantly surprised. Mercy is actually a heart melting love story with the perfect amount of darkness to shake things up and suck you in.

Romance & Love Celebration

February 13, 2019 Angela Guest Feature

She invited me to share a personal love story, and I had so much fun writing about how my husband and I grew closer while reading the In Death series together. It’s a pretty swoony story, if I do say so myself. You can read the full post here. While you’re there, be sure to check out the other stories written by authors, bloggers, and readers!

Review ♥ Unblocked – Episode Two by Marni Mann

February 3, 2019 Angela Erotica, Reviews

Contains spoilers from the first book. Things are clicking along at a nice pace in part two of this 5-part serial. Frankie is still reeling from her decidedly less than professional encounter with Derek at the end of Unblocked – Episode One. Although Derek is her client, she can’t stop fantasizing about him, so she decides to allow herself a little short term sex-only release.

Mini Review ♥ Left Drowning by Jessica Park

Mini Review ♥ Left Drowning by Jessica Park

January 27, 2019 Angela New Adult, Reviews, Romance

Yes, Left Drowning is a romance and yes, some parts are erotic, but it’s also a compelling story about loss, redemption, forgiveness, and the healing power of friendship. And while there is tragedy, it’s not depressing. In fact, there were moments when I found myself laughing out loud. The characters are so fully developed and real that I completely fell in love with the Shepherd clan. How could you not love Sabin & Estelle? The love story between Blythe & Christopher is truly moving. The book comes to a satisfying conclusion, but I was sad to let the story and the characters go.
