Tessa Dare has once again delivered a truly charming, sexy and humorous romance with her latest title, Romancing the Duke. I admit there were a couple of points which bothered me a little, but they didn’t spoil my overall enjoyment and I really can’t fault Ms Dare’s writing or characterisation. Isolde Ophelia Goodnight is twenty-six,…
My husband likes vanilla. I like chocolate. Neither of us can really explain why we like that particular flavor, we just know we do. With books I can normally tell you what makes it work or what makes it not work but every once in awhile I will find myself liking a style of story…
Narrated by Mary Kowal The first thing you need to know about Collide (which I didn’t know when I requested it for review) is that it is not the complete story. There is at least one other book. The next thing is that, even though the audiobook is professionally published by Brilliance, the book is self-published….
Narrated by Roger Hampton This audio novella is quite short, coming in at around the two-and-a-half hour mark, but even so, the story is replete with the emotional punch I’ve come to expect from author Grace Burrowes. The events of Mary Fran and Matthew run concurrently with those in The Bridegroom Wore Plaid, the first of…
Love Your Entity is a tricky book to grade. Most of the time, it walks that fine line between adorable and annoying as readers get to follow the latest round of antics in Chicago’s Vamptown. However, since I got more eyerolls than chuckles out of this one, it’s not something I’d recommend. Sierra Brennan comes…
Time travel is hard. When your time travel is about someone from the distant future going into their past, which is still your near future, the level of confusion-potential skyrockets. But here’s the thing – if you keep the action moving, give the reader just enough science to follow along without needing a phD in…
Narrated by Kate Russell Hello, my name is Melinda and I’m a KA addict. I went 9 months without reading a KA book but then they were released on audio and I just had to inhale… Yeah, KA is one of romance’s most contagious, cracktastic authors – without realizing it, without even knowing why, readers…
Narrated by MacLeod Andrews and Cassandra Campbell When snow is falling and the temperature is well below zero, nothing makes the time pass faster than a good book with an enthrallingly suspenseful plot. With this in mind, I eagerly began listening to Hunted, the latest novel by Karen Robards. I was hooked from the very…
Narrated by Arika Rapson I don’t know what it is about shape shifters and dream walkers that fascinates me so much. It’s been that way since I began reading urban fantasy and paranormal romance. Vampires are awesome, but give me any kind of shifter, and I can almost guarantee I’ll be hooked. If you add…
I think the best word I can come up with to describe The Unidentified Redhead is try-hard. It simply tries too hard to be glib and quirky. What we end up with are people who don’t feel like real flesh-and-blood humans engaging in a romance that seems based primarily on mutual sexual attraction. That said,…
