Review: The Navy SEAL’s Christmas Bride – Cora Seton

Review: The Navy SEAL’s Christmas Bride – Cora Seton

There is a little bit of everything in The Navy SEAL’s Christmas Bride; humour, romance, hotness, silliness and some very competitive characters to drive the story forward. My The Navy SEAL’s Christmas Bride review: First of all, I have to say that my visit to Crescent Hall was a very pleasant one! From the very beginning, it was easy to see that Dan and Sarah were going to compete about everything, and it was really funny to read about how far they went to make sure they could show of who was stronger than the other. I found it especially funny that Sarah had been competing like this her whole life, and if she had been a man, she’d probably […]

Review: Sudden Backtrack – Kim Harrison

Review: Sudden Backtrack – Kim Harrison

Sudden Backtrack is like a little bonus for the Hollows-lovers out there, as we get a little something from Al after the final full story. My Sudden Backtrack review: Sudden backtrack is very short, but oh so sweet! We get to see Newt, and the beginning of the war between the demons and the elves, and Newt truly is ready to go all the way to save the few demons who can still live and thrive in the ever after. I have to say that I wasn’t necessarily a huge fan of most of the elves during the whole Hollows series, and my reluctance with them was confirmed in this story. Newt is shown as an extremely strong character in […]

Review: Six Months – Dannika Dark

Review: Six Months – Dannika Dark

Six Months follows April and Reno, and with all of April’s problems, I kept wishing she would do the smart thing and tell her close friends what was going on with her. My Six Months review: Six Months definitely had big shoes to fill, because I have truly loved all of Ms. Dark’s other stories, and Seven Years was actually one of my favourite books of 2013. If you say gritty UF / Paranormal romance, I will say ‘yes please, pretty please, with sugar on top!’ And I really enjoy the shifters and the whole universe that is part of both the Seven series and the Mageri series. Alexis was present in Six Months as well, and her character development […]

Review: Play Me Right – Tracy Wolff

Review: Play Me Right – Tracy Wolff

Everything comes together in Play Me Right, the secrets are out in the open, and Aria and Sebastian both feel like they can be completely themselves with each other. My Play Me Right review: Even if office romances aren’t usually my thing, this whole Play Me series totally got to me. The characters were believable, the sexual tension and their chemistry was amazing, and the overall story and plot was compelling, too, In Play Me Right, everything comes together, even if not everything is solved. Knowing about the things Sebastian and Aria have kept from each other, and to a certain extent from themselves brought a satisfied smile to my face. As a reader, I love it when I get […]

Blogtour Review: Walled – Anne Tibbets

Blogtour Review: Walled – Anne Tibbets

  Welcome to my stop on the Walled blogtour, hosted by Xpresso Booktours. I also participated in the Carrier blogtour a few months ago, and I was amazed by how twisted the story was, and how relevant to our society. Today, I am sharing my review of Walled, some of my favorite quotes as well as a giveaway where you can win some fantastic prizes! My Walled review: Walled is every bit as emotional and strong as Carrier was. Naya shows just how far she is willing and able to go to save herself, her children, and all the people living under Auberge’s rule. Once she realizes that living in hiding is not truly better than living in hell, she agrees […]

Review: Coming for You – J.A. Huss

Review: Coming for You – J.A. Huss

Coming for You is pretty epic, both as an ending in the Dirty, Dark, and Deadly series, and because the whole team from Rook and Ronin and the spinoffs show up. My Coming for You review: Where do I even start a review about the awesomeness that is Coming for You? In Come, I really didn’t like James at all! He made me so uneasy, and I thought he was obnoxious and forceful. However, in Come Back, I got to know him better, and especially the way he was with Sasha won me over completely. Let me just tell you that in Coming for You, he totally blew my socks off! The whole story was very eery, mysterious and filled […]

Review: The Earl’s Defiant Wallflower – Erica Ridley

Review: The Earl’s Defiant Wallflower – Erica Ridley

Can true love conquer all? The Earl’s Defiant Wallflower has really sweet main characters, regency London and a despicable grand-mother. My The Earl’s Defiant Wallflower review: Oliver and Grace really weren’t meant for each other at all! Grace only needed to get married so that she could get her dowry and get on the first boat back to America to help nurse her mom back to health, and Oliver didn’t want to marry at all. The Earl’s Defiant Wallflower is filled with romance and really good chemistry anyway, though. When Oliver and Grace met at a ball, he was instantly attracted to her, even as she was trying to hide against the wall to stay away from the old rakes […]

Review: Play Me Real – Tracy Wolff

Review: Play Me Real – Tracy Wolff

Play Me Real is very tense, and both Sebastian and Aria come face to face with their pasts. My Play Me Real review: Starting at the exact same moment as the ending of Play Me Hard, Play Me Real gets right into the cliffhanger, and it’s really tough to deal with Janet for both Sebastian and Aria. I really enjoyed the way Sebastian dealt with the guy that got Aria on his radar in the first book of this serial, because he showed that he was true to his word, and really wouldn’t accept any clients in his casino who weren’t playing by his rules. Ethan Frost and Chloe from Wolff’s Ethan Frost series show up here, too, and they […]

Review: Play Me Hard – Tracy Wolff

Review: Play Me Hard – Tracy Wolff

In Play Me Hard, Aria shows that she can totally be in control, at least out of the bedroom, ultimatums are not at all appreciated by her. My Play Me Hard review: When Aria tells Sebastian that she doesn’t respond well to ultimatums, the readers see yet another side to her, and there is more than a hint of something dark hidden in her past. At the same time, during Play Me Hard, Aria feels so confused about Sebastian! He’s everything she always thought she wanted to run from, and here she is, taking orders from him, feeling safe and wanting more. Sebastian is mostly very sweet, he pours her a bath, takes care of her and shows her nothing […]

Review: Call Me Mrs. Miracle – Debbie Macomber

Review: Call Me Mrs. Miracle – Debbie Macomber

Sweet and warm Christmas stories with romance and chemistry; there you have Call me Mrs. Miracle in a nutshell. My Call Me Mrs. Miracle review: There are actually too very cute, warm and engaging stories in Call Me Mrs. Miracle – in the first one, Holly struggles to make ends meet since her nephew Gabe came to live with her while her brother was in Afghanistan. Jake Finley hasn’t celebrated Christmas for the past 21 years, ever since his mom and his sister were killed in an accident on Christmas Eve. When Holly and Jake meet, they feel vey comfortable with each other straight away, and there is a strong attraction between them. As different hurdles are thrown at this […]
