Strut is the second book in Jay Hogan’s Style series of romances set in the world of high fashion, and in it, the action moves from New Zealand to New York as we follow events in the life of model Alec Williamson. We met Alec, an up-and-comer, in book one, Flare, where he made his…
Narrated by Richard Stranks Fearne Hill’s To Hold a Hidden Pearl is a lovely, character-driven contemporary romance featuring an eccentric grief-stricken earl and a big-hearted regular bloke who, in the time-honoured way of romance novels, hook-up one night only to discover, a week later, that they’re going to be working together. It’s warm, funny, poignant…
The first two books in the Hot Cannoils series (Hot Seat and Hot Wings) were co-authored by Eli Easton and Tara Lain, but circumstances have led to the authors writing the next two books individually, so Eli Easton is flying solo for this third book in the series. Hot Pursuit is a fast-paced and entertaining…
Vortex Conundrum, the second book in Louisa Masters’ Ghostly Guardians series, picks up a few months after the events of Spirited Situation, and I really would advise reading that first if you plan on reading this one. It’s an easy read, but it’s very insubstantial in terms of both plot and characterisation. Please note that…
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. It’s a heartbreaking and gut-wrenching story – especially when reading about the shitty hand life has dealt one of…
Set in Paris shortly after the end of World War One, Lost & Found is the story of a traumatised young American doctor who returns to Paris to search for his best friend, who has been missing since before war ended. It’s the compelling story of one man’s search for so much more than an…
In G.B. Gordon’s By the Book, a young accountant becomes a target when he stumbles across a money laundering operation, and ends up in the protective custody of a gorgeous FBI agent. Although I suspect some of the procedural elements are off, that’s not unusual for the genre; many movies and TV shows condense or…
The publisher’s blurb for this début romance from S.R. Lane drew me in immediately. Eight Weeks in Paris revolves around filming the big-screen adaptation of The Throne, a classic queer novel set in Paris during the Belle Époque, and it promised an enemies-to-lovers romance between the two stars – one a Hollywood bad boy, the…
Layla Reyne begins a new romantic suspense series with Dead Draw, in which two FBI agents who turn out to be working the same case from different angles enter into a marriage of convenience so that they can continue to work it under the radar after an operation goes badly wrong. MoC is one of…
The fourth book in Con Riley’s excellent Learning to Love series is Austin, a touching and heartfelt story about learning not only to love, but to forgive, let go of the past, and move on. Austin Russell had a significant role to play in the previous book, Luke, when he was sent by his employer,…
