Romance Book and Audiobook Reviews and Deals
The Dirty Girl Duet by Meghan March Must be read together. Spin-off of the Dirty Billionaire Series, but it is not necessary to read that first. Meghan March is totally a new top favorite author. Seriously, Cav, the hero in these books, is the perfect book boyfriend for me. Mr. Ana likes to call me his dirty girl, and now I… Read More
Sidebarred by Emma Chase Audiobook Review Novella. Does not stand alone. I thought Sustained by Emma Chase couldn’t get any better. I was wrong. The addition of Sidebarred as an extended epilogue novella to both Sustained and the Legal Briefs series as a whole could not have been more satisfying and enjoyable. With Sebastian York again as the narrator, it… Read More
Lawless and Soulless by T.M. Frazier Narrated by Rob Shapiro and Molly Glenmore Recommended to read after King & Tyrant I loved King & Tyrant on audio. But I knew early on that Lawless did not stand alone, so I waited until I could listen to both Lawless and Soulless in a row. I am SO GLAD I DID! OMG,… Read More
Thrown Down by Tessa Bailey Standalone 2 in the Made in Jersey Series. Erotic Adult Contemporary Romance. No. Words. This book reduced me to speaking in one word sentences. I was so incredibly overwhelmed with emotion, I couldn’t string words together to form complete sentences. When expressing my feelings while reading, my thoughts looked a lot like this: Fuck. I… Read More
When I’m With You (Hope Town 3) by Harper Sloan Interconnected Standalone. Adult Contemporary. Harper Sloan has a perfect (I hesitate to say formula, but I can’t think of a better word) to her books. They are the exact things that appeal to me the most. Slightly over-the-top alphas, feisty fun females you want to hang with, and no-doubt about… Read More
Underneath It All (The Walsh Series #1) by Kate Canterbary Adult Contemporary. Standalone in a series of interrelated standalones. Dual POV with Male and female narration. Boy do I love a dirty talker! If you do too, Underneath It All by Kate Canterbary may be the book for you. Currently free on Amazon, I didn’t have time to read it,… Read More
Porn Star by Laurelin Paige and Sierra Simone Adult Contemporary Standalone. As soon as I saw the title and authors on this book, I thought “I NEEEEEED THIS BOOK!” After reading the blurb, I thought so even more: You know me. Come on, you know you do. Maybe you pretend you don’t. Maybe you clear your browser history religiously. Maybe… Read More
Sebring (Unfinished Heroes 5) by Kristen Ashley Contemporary Romance. Related Standalone. Last in the Series. HOW DOES SHE DO IT??? Seriously, with close to 50 books under her belt, Kristen Ashley has never failed to give me a book I love. Sure, some I love more than others, but they all have the magic. That special something that only a… Read More
The Gamers Series by Megan Erickson Erotic Romance. Each can stand alone. Book 1 – Changing His Game by Megan Erickson I absolutely do not understand how Megan Erickson has coasted under my book lovin’ radar for this long. Her books are right up my alley. I was recommended this series by a book buddy who told me I would fall… Read More
Wicked Fall by Sawyer Bennett Erotic Romance. First in a Series of Standalones. Wicked Fall by Sawyer Bennett was a great combination of super hot and sexy, sweet and romantic, and light and easy. Did I say HOT???? Woolf is a rich, hot Wyoming rancher who had to take over his father’s oil and cattle business when he died. Though he… Read More
Priest by Sierra Simone Erotic Taboo standalone Priest by Sierra Simone is as taboo as I have read. It also had some amazing sexual tension. Priest is hot and so very dirty. I’m going to give a warning here: If you are a religious person, especially a Catholic, I don’t recommend this book. Since I am neither, none of that… Read More
Asking For It by Lilah Pace Adult Contemporary, Dark. Asking for It by Lilah Pace came with some really strong warnings, and though I don’t usually enjoy very dark books, the blurb and warnings appealed to me. There are definitely some triggers you need to know about right up front. This is about non-consensual sex/rape fantasies, but there are also… Read More
Up In Smoke by Tessa Bailey Connected Standalone. Adult Contemporary. Up in Smoke is the second book in the Crossing the Line series by Tessa Bailey. The first book, Risking It All, was a 5+++ star read for me…leaving big, giant shoes to fill (see my review). But, as always, Tessa Bailey did not disappoint. This series features the anti-heroes…good… Read More
The Other Man by RK Lilley Standalone Romantic Suspense. Related to The Wild Side Series. Wow. RK Lilley really outdid herself on The Other Man. The Other Man is a standalone book with light ties to most of her other books. It’s a spin-off of a spin-off, and while I don’t think it’s necessary to read any of her other… Read More
Big Love Abroad by Jasinda Wilder Contemporary Erotic Romance. Full length, complete standalone, can be read as #11 in the Big Girls/Rock Stars Do It Series As much as I love Jasinda Wilder’s writing, I haven’t read all of her books. In fact, I haven’t read beyond book 2 in the Big Girls Series. Since I’m OCD about never reading… Read More
Assumption and Obligation by Aurora Rose Reynolds (Underground Kings 1 & 2) Adult Contemporary, Interconnected Standalones . ASSUMPTION Aurora Rose Reynolds has yet to disappoint me. I adore each and every one of her OTT alpha males and her strong female leads. Assumption was no exception. I loved Autumn’s spunkiness. And Kenton? Oh, Kenton. So rough on the outside, so… Read More
Throttle Me by Chelle Bliss (Men of Inked #1) Audiobook and e-book review. Can stand alone. Contemporary/erotic romance Why did it take me so long to read Chelle Bliss? She writes books that are perfect for me, filled with alpha men, sweet, likable women, dirty talking tattooed (and pierced!) men, and hot sex with a little kink. Just what I… Read More
Risking It All by Tessa Bailey Part of a Series but can stand alone Risking It All is the first full length novel in the Tessa Bailey’s new series Crossing the Line. For those of you who have read Tessa’s Line of Duty series, you have met the main character, Bowen. I was really hoping he would get his own book, and… Read More
Riskier Business by Tessa Bailey 2nd in a series, recommended you read His Risk to Take (novella) first. A Megan’s Musings review Riskier Business is book #0.5 of Tessa Bailey’s new series, Crossing the Line. It is actually a sequel to His Risk to Take, Troy and Ruby’s story from her Line of Duty series. This book sets the scene… Read More
Owned by Fate (Serve 1) by Tessa Bailey First in a series of standalones I was in a reading rut. Usually the only guaranteed thing that pulls me out is a Kristen Ashley book, but I only had a day before I had to read my next book, so Megan said I HAD to read Owned by Fate by Tessa… Read More

Trashed by Jasinda Wilder Set in the world of Stripped, but it’s a complete standalone. Contemporary Romance. Jasinda Wilder. Wow. That woman can write so many different types of books. From rip-your-heart-out emotional, to hot-as-fuck exciting, to light and sexy fun. Trashed was the latter. It was a perfect easy-reading break for me, and despite it being 450 pages, it… Read More
Perfect Ten by Nikki Worrell *New Cover and the author switched back to her real name* Erotic Romance Standalone Perfect Ten by Nikki Worrell may be the most relatable book I have ever read. The heroine is a size 16 and completely down on herself. She has 2 skinny sisters and a skinny mom who are absolutely horrible people and taunt her… Read More
Beta by Jasinda Wilder (Alpha 2) Adult Contemporary. Must read Alpha first. I loved Alpha by Jasinda Wilder. It was one of the hottest books I’ve read this year, and I loved the commanding alpha presence of Valentine Roth. But Beta took it to another level! Beta took the sexy, erotic romance, and brought in lots of elements of some… Read More
