Barbarian’s Prize is the fifth story in the Ruby Dixon’s Ice Planet Barbarians series. Already popular with readers when the series was published independently by the author, a subsequent explosion in popularity on TikTok resulted in its being picked up by Berkley and re-released in print format (I have seen print copies of the series…
Described as Anastasia meets The Bodyguard, Queen of Dust by H.E. Dare is a sexy science fiction romance that kept me hooked from the very first page to the last. A rather eye-opening voyeuristic scene sets the stage for Mara Leanor, a Balti Temptress, her partner, CEO Liam Pent, and Calvy D’Aldiern, an enemy soldier…
I’ve reviewed Rachel Bach’s three-book Paradox trilogy (Fortune’s Pawn, Honor’s Knight, and Heaven’s Queen) together here because, first, they are one complete story, and second, because I binged them so hard and fast I didn’t have time to review them one at a time. I think maybe three days elapsed between me starting the first…
If mediocre Clan of the Cave Bear fanfic is a brand that calls your name, Ruby Dixon’s Barbarian Mine is the read for you!

I gave a DIK to the first book in Jessie Mihalik’s Starlight’s Shadow series, Hunt the Stars, when it came out earlier this year. This sequel, Eclipse the Moon, has not let me down.

SF romance fans, your next great read is here! I got the ARC for Jessie Mihalik’s Hunt the Stars back in summer 2021, and it’s been KILLING me to have to sit on this review for SIX MONTHS before I could share it with you. If you like space adventure, action, intrigue, plot twists, and…

Science Fiction romances tend to battle sequences and spaceships, but Homebound by Lydia Hope is set on a dystopian Earth. In The City, an urban ruin that reads like a Dickensian slum, Gemma works for a pittance scrubbing prison cells. A surprise reassignment to the third floor, where the alien prisoners are housed, leads to…
Here’s my one sentence review of this book: “Ice Planet Barbarians is predictable, ridiculous, and a damn good time.” You’re looking for more, however, aren’t you?
