VIRGIN'S NIGHT OUT by Shiloh Walker is a quick stand-alone
read. This book is listed as 213 pages, but there is
a bonus novella Tempt Me included, so VIRGIN'S NIGHT OUT
clocks in at 106 pages. Due to the short format, the
story is compressed, but there Read more...
THE DUKE'S DISASTER by the lovely Grace Burrowes appears
to
be a standalone Regency romance, although with a
brother-in-law and a twin brother, I can see the potential
for this to develop into a series! As with so many
Burrowes
books, the heroine has some significant anguish Read more...
DARKNESS ETERNAL is novella #7.5 in the Guardians of

CAPTIVE PRINCE by C.S. Pacat was initially released as an
original web serial under the pen name S.U. Pacat. It's
slave fiction erotica, with a male/male

the Lymon Chronicles from Dorothy Dunnett, which is Read more...
CURSED BY ICE by Jacqueline Frank is book two in the
Immortal
Brothers series. I've been a longtime fan of Frank's

with her more recent books. I was thrilled with Cursed by
Fire, book Read more...
Oh my god, The Others series by Anne Bishop just
keeps
getting better, and I'm not sure how that's even possible,
because books one and two were so fantastic. And yet,
book three,
VISION IN SILVER is even more incredibly, mind-blowingly
extraordinary. There are werewolves Read more...
THE BEDDING PROPOSAL by Tracey Anne Warren is a lovely
Regency romance, book one in The Rakes of Cavendish
Square
series. The beginning felt a little stilted, and I got
the
sense the Regency setting was a bit heavy-handedly drawn.
There was lots of scattered Regency cant Read more...

MISTRESS FIREBRAND by historical romance author Donna

do in-depth research Read more...

OF SILK AND STEAM by Bec McMaster is London
Steampunk book
number five, a marvelous piece. Enjoyment of this book

the characters from the prior Read more...
CURSED BY FIRE is book one in fabulous Jacquelyn Frank's

Sherlock
Holmes series by beloved Laurie R. King, one of my

ahead of me on Read more...

Knight provides that darkness in abundance. As are Read more...
LETHAL CONSEQUENCES is book two in Elisabeth Naughton's
Aegis Security series. Too often, I think romantic
suspense books fall prey to completely unbelievable plots
that pull me out of the story. LETHAL CONSEQUENCES does a
fantastic
job of inducing me to keep my willing suspension of
disbelief Read more...
