Review: Victoria by Daisy Goodwin

Β Β Β Β  After reading Victoria by Daisy Goodwin, I can’t wait to watch the PBS production! I learned a lot reading this one and further expanded my vocabulary. I enjoyed the descriptions of the gowns worn in the book and that will be something to forward to seeing on TV series. The best part of the […]

Review: Roman by Sawyer Bennett

ROMAN is the seventh book in the Cold Fury hockey series. Β Each book in the series is a standalone, although all the characters are interconnected. This is a charming story about Roman Sykora, the enforcer for the Cold Fury hockey team. Β He is the bad boy on the team and his antics keep getting him […]

I love a good second chance romance and Make Me is that and more. Β Originally it was 8 novella’s that have now been combined into one full-length novel and I am so glad I found the full version; it is quite a ride. Harper McFadden is looking for a change of pace – leaving her […]

Review:  Dare to Lie by Jen McLauglin

I have enjoyed the Sons of Steel Row but I was a bit nervous about Scotty’s story. Β He is an undercover DEA agent and I was worriedΒ that it may not be accurate or true to life for me. Β Jen McLaughlin did an excellent job at moving this romantic suspense along and making it seem probable […]

Review:  I See You by Molly McAdams

I feel like I need to start thisΒ review with I absolutely adore Molly McAdams but IΒ didn’t love this book. Β Not every book by a beloved author is for every reader and I See You wasn’t for me. Β I felt this book wasΒ overly angsty, the characters didn’t communicate, the jumping around time frame just did me […]

Review: Waiting For an Earl Like You by Alexandra Hawkins

Alexandra Hawkins always provides guilty pleasure historical romances. The heroes are generally wicked and the heroines headstrong to stand up to that wicked hero. This book was no exception. The interactions between Thorn and Olivia were delightful. I couldn’t wait for the next interaction because they completely threw each other off-kilter. And let’s not talk […]
