And Then There Was You is not your typical contemporary romance and is unlike anything Cousens has written before. I’ve loved Cousens’ romcoms and, initially, wasn’t sure what to make of this quirky, unique science fiction romance. I’m so glad I read it! The story explores how the rise of AI is changing our world…
(this review contains spoilers for Book of Night, the first book in this duology) Thief of Night is the rare sequel that not only improves its predecessor—it redeems it. I came to this duology as a fan of The Folk of the Air, expecting something equally dark and irresistible. Instead, the first book, Book of…
I Think I’m in Love with an Alien is silly and fun. It’s a book for nerds, and it could have come from the AO3 fan fiction universe (maybe it did?). The premise is delightful – and potentially hilarious but somehow not all the jokes landed for me. It’s a tender romance set in the…
The dust bunnies are back for more action and mayhem in the latest addition of Jayne Castle’s Harmony series. I enjoyed being back in this world and am happy to report that the story has plenty of suspense – especially in the second half. I would love to see a little more romance, but there…
If you’ve been following along with the Ice Planet Barbarians series by Ruby Dixon, we’ve made it to book ten! But Barbarian’s Hope comes with a twist – instead of a human and Sa-Khui relationship we instead get a second-chance romance between a Sa-Khui male and female. It’s a story of loss and recovery, so…
I will admit to being swayed by social media on rare occasions. That’s how I wound up reading the first book in Kimberly Lemming’s Cosmic Chaos series, I Got Abducted by Aliens and Now I’m Trapped in a Rom-Com. Everybody’s talking about it, and I’m glad I joined the conversation. I won’t lie: it’s weird….
Barbarian’s Heart is the ninth full-length novel in Ruby Dixon’s Ice Planet Barbarians series. I wonder if when the author started self-publishing these books back in 2015 she could have imagined that the series would take off and become a hit, and she’d end up getting a print deal with Berkley. From the viewpoint of…
In The City Without End, Kelly Jensen returns to the universe she created for 2018’s To See the Sun, although this story is set at the other end of it! The romance centres around the arranged marriage between two scions of the First Families of the glittering city of Zhemosen, and is set against a…
Barbarian’s Taming is the eighth (yes, you read that right, we’re about halfway through!) book in Ruby Dixon’s Ice Planet Barbarians series. You’d think that by now the plot would have become stale or the sex routine, but truthfully it’s moving along quite nicely, and there are some significant plot developments that will have implications…
Phase Shift is the thrilling final instalment in Jenn Burke and Kelly Jensen’s fantastic Chaos Station sci-fi romance series, and it’s a terrific last hurrah for Zed, Felix and the crew. But of course, there’s no way any swan song featuring these characters isn’t going to put them – and us – through the wringer,…
