Narrated by Darcy Stark I enjoyed this slow-burn, veteran/rookie romance even though I know nothing about baseball! Most of that detail went over my head, but the leads have strong chemistry and I liked the fact that this wasn’t one of those stories that basically goes “we can’t do this” – they do it anyway…
The Pairing is without a doubt Casey McQuiston’s horniest book – it’s also their most sensual one, filled with lush descriptions of food and luxury locales and tourist spots. And yet it’s also the weakest book I’ve read of theirs. The author knows what they’re doing when the book opens with a quote from Mr….
Narrated by Gary Furlong We’re slowly seeing more characters in their forties appearing in romance novels, even though they’re still a fairly small minority. Romantic leads in their fifties, however, are still quite rare, and to find two of them in the same book – as the central couple – is even rarer. Jay Hogan…
Like its predecessor (Something Fabulous), Alexis Hall’s Something Spectacular is a delightful read with some very pertinent observations to make while being a witty, laugh-out-loud funny, campy, over-the-top and unabashedly queer romance that takes place in a very modern “Regency” setting. As with the previous book, “basically everyone in it is LGBTQ+”, the author (in…
Do you like a boss/employee taboo scenario that takes consent and power equality seriously? A hero who wants the heroine’s submission to come from a position of choice and strength, and to also make space for her own pleasure? Are you open to a ‘meet cute’ in a glory hole? Then Suzanne Clay’s Release may…
This is only the second book I’ve read by Romeo Alexander, and to be honest, the first one was just average, so I wasn’t expecting to enjoy To Love and Protect as much as I did. But I’m always on the look out for good romantic suspense so I decided to give it try, and…
It’s pretty much impossible for me to not love Scarlett Peckham. Her original plots and strong characters are my catnip, my raison d’être as a romance reader. Thus, The Portrait of a Duchess pleased me to no end. There are a few hinky spots here, but it’s still a great read. Cornelia Ludgate is an…
In the first few chapters, Flip the Script by Lyla Lee seems like it isn’t going anywhere special: heroine Hana Jin has landed a lead role in the K-Drama Fated Destiny opposite K-Pop star Bryan Yoon in his first acting gig, and to boost ratings for their show, they are asked to have a fake…
Sera Taíno’s The Best Man’s Problem is an enemies-to-lovers slow-burn romance between two guys who are to undertake best man duties at the wedding of their sister and best friend respectively – Val and Philip, protagonists of the first Navarros book, A Delicious Dilemma. I haven’t read that one, but The Best Man’s Problem works…
Nope, apparently it’s not too early for the first wave of Christmas-related romance novels to hit the market. In The Event of Love is sweet and just a touch quirky, making it a fun and fast-paced intro to the season. Morgan Ross is an event planner extraordinaire. She’s busy and successful, but when she gets…
