Narrated by Kate Reading Mia Vincy’s Longhope Abbey series continues with book four, A Scandalous Kind of Duke. Friends-to-lovers and second-chance romances are two of my favourite tropes, and the glimpses we’ve had of the two protagonists – free-spirited, bohemian artist Juno and stuffy, duty-conscious duke Leo – in the previous books have been intriguing,…
Criminal Intentions by Cold McCade: Season One, Episode Three: The Man With the Glass Eye Narrated by Curt Bonnem I listened to and reviewed the first two books in Cole McCade’s addictive Criminal Intentions series when they came out in 2022, but didn’t get around to reviewing the third for some reason – so I…
Narrated by Simon Goldhill Individually, Joanna Chambers and Sally Malcolm are two of my favourite authors, so I was delighted when, back in 2021, they announced that they were collaborating on a series of contemporary m/m romances set in and around the world of TV production.

Narrated by Nick J. Russo Note: This is a same-couple series in which the relationship development is ongoing, and there are references to events in earlier books in this review.

Narrated by Teddy Hamilton & CJ Bloom Wyatt Ford returns to the small town of Cold Springs for his brother’s wedding. His brother, Winston, said please. That’s the only reason Wyatt deigned to return after leaving town after dropping out of college. He wanted to get away from the Ford family influence and make his…
Narrated by Greg Boudreaux Lord of Leaves, book two in Nazri Noor’s Wild Hearts series of fantasy romances, picks up about a week after the end of Prince of Flowers, and, like its predecessor, is a fun, inventive and light-hearted adventure romp through the magical worlds of the Black Market, the Wispwood and the Verdance…
Narrated by Nick J. Russo Nicky James has become one of my favourite authors over the past couple of years, her well-structured stories featuring complex, well-drawn characters and – usually – mid-to-high levels of angst – have made her a must read. Radio Static is a standalone romantic mystery (originally published in 2021) in which…
Narrated by Kale Williams C.S. Poe’s Subway Slayings was one of my favourite books of last year, a wonderful combination of clever, tightly-plotted mystery and gorgeous slow-burn romance that gave me a book hangover of the very best kind – and now I get to experience the story all over again with the added benefit…
