Review: Wicked Fall – Sawyer Bennett

Review: Wicked Fall – Sawyer Bennett

Hot! Also darker and naughtier than Bennett’s usual stories, Wicked Fall was enticing and intriguing as hell! My Wicked Fall review: Wicked Fall is a naughty, hot and still quite romantic tale! Bennett managed to have me intrigued and very interested in both Woolf and Callie, and while I don’t see myself ever visiting any kind of sex club, I was quite pleased to be a secondary voyeur at The Wicked Horse! At first, Woolf definitely intimidated me, but he also really intrigued me, as he was both a very savvy business man and cowboy, and at the same time trying to build a kinky empire for those with the same wants and needs as himself and Bridger. I have […]

Review: Ride Steady – Kristen Ashley

Review: Ride Steady – Kristen Ashley

Ride Steady was an amazing story! Ashley took me on a tender, tough, sweet, sad, funny, happy and very hot ride along with Carissa and Carson. My Ride Steady review: Ashley certainly has a knack for writing stories in which my emotions are fully invested, with characters that might be strong, but that are also utterly vulnerable. Where there has been (or still is) a lot of heartache, but hope is still important. Ride Steady gave me all I expected and more! Chaos is a series in which the characters seem very hard and unmoving, but underneath that tough exterior, there is so much love, loyalty and strong ties to family, friends and the club. Carissa and Joker both had […]

Review: Trouble on Tap – Avery Flynn

Review: Trouble on Tap – Avery Flynn

In Trouble on Tap we finally get to meet the third triplet, and the second chance trope that is prevalent made my heart happy. As with the first two installments in Sweet Salvation Brewery, I buddy-read Trouble on Tap with my friend Brandee @ Bookworm Brandee, and our e-mail exchange is basically my review. We had a lot of fun chatting about this, and it makes us feel like we didn’t live on opposite sides of the world when we read the same book at the same time – and then chat about it afterwards. My Trouble on Tap review / book chat with Brandee: Brandee: I finished this morning. I’ve already had an early morning cry. *sniff* I’m so […]

Review: Never Never #2 – Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher

Review: Never Never #2 – Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher

Oh my goodness, Never Never is killing me! That is a flipping strong cliff-hanger right there, and I just don’t know if I’ll be able to wait for the next installment! My Never Never review: In Never Never Part 2, I got to know Silas a lot better, as he was the main narrator of the story. He was frantic in his search for Charlie, and the mystery and the suspense was truly palpable, until the very last word of the story! The character development was really well done, especially when taking into account that Silas didn’t even know who he was at the beginning of the story. However, as he followed his own clues, he started having some strong […]

Review: The Veil – Chloe Neill

Review: The Veil – Chloe Neill

The Veil is filled with magic, friendship, treason, and quite a bit of hurt. In this new world of hers, Neill managed to keep me pretty much at the edge of my seat for the duration. My The Veil review: In The Veil, New Orleans is like a different place on earth, because there has been a war between magic and military, and now, the paranormals are imprisoned in a place called Devil’s Isle. Soon after her father’s death, Claire realized she had some magic, too, and she had to hide it at all costs, lest she’d be imprisoned in Devil’s Isle herself. The story started with a commemoration of the war, where Claire went with her best friends Gunnar […]

Review: The Piano Man Project – Kat French

Review: The Piano Man Project – Kat French

Fun, flirty, but still pretty deep, The Piano Man Project was a very good story. My The Piano Man Project review: Honeysuckle (yes, that’s her name!!) has not had a lot of luck when it comes to men, and when she tells her best friends she’s never had an orgasm in her life, they decide to help her find a man – one who is good with his hands. And that’s how the piano man project was born, over drinks after a visit to a sex-shop. However, even with her friends’ intervention, and with her best interest at heart, Honey is so intrigued by her new neighbor Hal that any other man just seems kind of bland next to him […]

Blogtour Review: Shades of Treason – Sandy Williams

Blogtour Review: Shades of Treason – Sandy Williams

Shades of Treason is a gritty, dark Science fiction / Fantasy novel with harsh tones and a definite thriller-like feeling as well. My Shades of Treason review: Political intrigue, betrayal, war. Shades of Treason is a fast-paced story where the two main characters, Ash and Rykus are like two planets, with all the other characters in orbit around them – reacting to their actions and trying to follow in their wake. The action happens both through discussions and thoughts as well as actual fights, hand-to-hand combat, scaling cliffs and shooting. Ash is strong, she’s not completely human, but called an anomaly. On top of that, she’s been given drugs to make her stronger, faster, and more cunning. Shades of Treason […]

Review: Sworn to Protect – Katie Reus

Review: Sworn to Protect – Katie Reus

Sworn to Protect is a fast-paced contemporary romantic suspense, and the characters were quite enticing. My Sworn to Protect review: Sworn to Protect takes the readers back into Red Stone Security, with the hunky men and capable women who are a part of this universe. Athena was a great character to follow, strong-minded, smart and decisive, I enjoyed her both when it came to her work and her personal life. Quinn was seemingly the strong and quiet type, especially in the beginning. When he let up a little, he was pretty great too, though. The interactions between the friends and family working together at Red Stone Security were great, their easy camaraderie made me want to go work with them. […]

Review: Chasing River – K.A. Tucker

Review: Chasing River – K.A. Tucker

Chasing River took me on a beautiful and dangerous trip to Ireland, with good-girl Amber and bad-boy River, filled my heart with adventure, romance and love. My Chasing River review: I loved everything about Chasing River so much! It was about time Amber got her own story, and to see it unfold mostly in Dublin, Ireland was a real treat. I sadly haven’t been to Ireland yet, but it is definitely on my list of places to visit. While her time in Ireland definitely didn’t end up being at all as she had planned, Amber did try to make the best of it. If what happened to her on her first day there had happened to me, I’m pretty sure […]

Review: Second Chance Summer – Jill Shalvis

Review: Second Chance Summer – Jill Shalvis

Second Chance Summer is yet another winner from Shalvis! Amazing characters, a great story, and red-hot romance filled with both hope and a little dose of fear. My Second Chance Summer review: Everything that happened in Second Chance Summer appealed to me! I loved the characters, Lily and Aidan are both strong, stubborn people, and the characters surrounding them were well done and complex as well. The story itself was really good, Lily finally got back home to Cedar Ridge ten years after more or less fleeing and leaving everything and everyone she knew behind. And it was definitely easy to understand why she felt the need to leave. Her younger sister, Ashley, had been killed in a climbing accident, […]
