I cracked open Keira Andrews’ Honeymoon for One in the expectation of a solidly entertaining, well-told story – and that was exactly what I got. It’s a slow-burn, hurt/comfort, age-gap romance between Ethan Robinson, who ends up, as the title indicates, going on his honeymoon alone and Clay Kelly, the driver/guide of the tour Ethan had…
E.M. Lindsey’s Safe and Sound is a second-chance romance between two guys who were deeply in love as teens, but who went their separate ways due to a variety of circumstances and spend twenty years apart.

Oh, my heart. I loved this book. I see the Christian side of my family reflected very often in romance, and in fiction in general. However, very rarely do I see stories where I recognize the Jewish side of the family. Matzah Ball Surprise is just such a book. It’s sweet, hilarious, uplifting, and made me…

This second volume of erotic short stories written by women is an interesting collection that ranges from erotic romance to erotic horror, mainly with a D/s or bondage-centric themes. The quality of the content varies quite widely; so while the book contains twenty-one stories, I’ve selected the best and worst of the bunch to give…
I’m not sure why it took me so long to read Tessa Dare. She’s certainly a well-respected historical romance author. This is largely why I selected Three Nights With a Scoundrel to review, and man, am I glad I did. I loved every page. When Lady Lily Chatwick’s twin brother Leo is murdered, she is…
