Romance Book and Audiobook Reviews and Deals
The Storm (The Storm 3.5) by Samantha Towle Adult Contemporary Novella. Does Not Stand Alone. The Storm Series by Samantha Towle is one of my hands-down favorite series. Jake and Tru are such an amazing couple and I love the whole band. I found out she had a novella coming out just the day before release and I can’t tell you… Read More
Wrapped In Lace by Prescott Lane Adult Contemporary. Takes place over the Holidays. Standalone. Wrapped in Lace by Prescott Lane is a perfect holiday read, but can be enjoyed all year long. It has all the things I love in a book: It’s sweet, sexy, has a little angst, made me laugh and grin throughout, has side characters I absolutely love,… Read More
Changing Course (Wrecked and Ruined 1) by Aly Martinez Adult Contemporary. Standalone. Aly Martinez sure knows how to deliver the feels in a super unique story. I enjoyed the audio version of Changing Course because it was narrated by both male and female, and I enjoyed both of their voices. Brett and his friend Caleb are hot young cops. One… Read More
Perfectly Imperfect by Harper Sloan Adult Contemporary Standalone Perfectly Imperfect by Harper Sloan is an intensely personal book both for Harper and myself. You see, #IamWillow. Willow was perhaps the most relatable character I have ever had the pleasure of “meeting” in a book. I think everyone can find a little of themselves in this book, but for me it… Read More
Reapers & Bastards: An Anthology by Joanna Wylde 4 stories in the Reapers world. Can stand alone. Erotic MC Joanna Wylde’s MC Series, Reapers, and the spin-off Silver Bastards, is one of my favorite series. Reapers and Bastards is a collection of short stories (one is a bit longer) and some cute recipes and tips. This can be read whether… Read More
Walk Through Fire (Chaos 4) by Kristen Ashley Contemporary Biker Romance. Can stand alone, but better read in order. I’m starting to feel like a broken record, but Kristen Ashley has done it again! Walk Through Fire is a nice and long, sweet, sexy, super emotional and totally engrossing second chance romance. This is High and Millie’s story. Given my… Read More
Tied Together by Z.B. Heller M/M Romantic Comedy Standalone To start off the review, I must qualify this with the fact that I am not normally an m/m fan. Nor have I read the Moxie books by ZB Heller beyond a short story. But the promos were so cute, and I just love Zolie, so I wanted to get out… Read More
GREY: Fifty Shades of Grey as told by Christian Companion to Fifty Shades of Grey (Book 1) I know that people may think badly of the Fifty Shades books by EL James, but funny thing is, many of the people that do might not be popular authors today if it weren’t for the books. It was a genre-busting trilogy, making… Read More
Identity Crisis by Rochelle Paige Adult Contemporary. Stands Alone. Identity Crisis was my first Rochelle Paige book and it won’t be my last! It has mystery, action, a likable heroine and a hot, dirty talking Navy SEAL. What more do you need? I read this book so quickly, I feel badly that I am only just writing up my review… Read More
Rock Chick Rescue by Kristen Ashley Book 2 of 8. Each story stands alone, but builds on previous characters. One of my favorite series is the Rock Chick Series by Kristen Ashley. They took me a while to read, but they are pure KA gold. I prefer my audiobooks to be a little cleaner than my kindle books (yes, I… 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
Rock Chick by Kristen Ashley 1st in a series of standalones that build on each other. If you’ve read my blog for any length of time, you know that Kristen Ashley is my favorite author. With over 40 amazing books filled with delicious alpha men, I have loved each of them. Rock Chick is the book that started it all,… Read More
Shuttergirl by CD Reiss Adult Contemporary Romance. Standalone. I have only read a little of CD Reiss in the past, so I honestly didn’t know what to expect at all with Shuttergirl. This is her first contemporary romance (not erotic), so it’s a little different than the dominant Jonathan Drazen. In fact, the hero wasn’t really dominant at all, but… 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
The Virgin Romance Novelist Romantic Comedy. Standalone. I am a huge romantic comedy fan. In fact, I think it may be my favorite genre. But it’s hard to do it right. So many are completely over the top, or the main character is funny by being nasty, which is an absolute no in my book. To me, the perfect romantic… Read More
Deep by Kylie Scott (Stage Dive #4) Can stand alone, but this is the final in the series. Contemporary Rock Star Romance. I’m so sad that the Stage Dive Series has come to an end! I love this series! The books are filled with all of my favorite things: romance, sexy times, lots of humor, and a little angst. Deep… Read More
Blocked by Lisa N. Paul Adult Contemporary standalone Sweet, sexy, and funny, Blocked by Lisa N. Paul was just a pleasure to read. Lisa approached me a while back, asking be to read an early copy. Because of Wicked Book Weekend, I wasn’t able to give it a read back then, but I’m so glad I got to it by… Read More
Until Trevor (Until #2) by Aurora Rose Reynolds Adult Contemporary. Interconnected Standalones (brothers) At the time I write this review, I had already listened to Until Lilly after this. So it has been a while since I listened to this, and I honestly don’t have a lot of detail memory. But Until Trevor deserves a review, because I LOVED it…. 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
The Gallos – The Beginning by Chelle Bliss Short Prequel to the Men of Inked Series. Can stand Alone. The Gallos by Chelle Bliss is a short prequel story to the The Men of Inked Series by Chelle Bliss. I think you will look at it very differently if you are already a fan of the series, vs. if this… Read More
Wildest Dreams Fantasyland Series: Book 1 by Kristen Ashley  1st in a series. Can stand alone. This series is AMAZING. Fans of paranormal and fantasy or not, if you enjoy Kristen Ashley, you will enjoy these books. I originally read this entire series about a year ago, but I recently decided that a reread was in order…as it often is with all… Read More
Branded (Ignite #2) by Tara Sivec, Second in a series of interconnected standalones Contemporary romance Burned by Tara Sivec was one of my Favorite Books of 2014. So when Branded came out, I jumped on it right away, looking forward to another mix of hot, suspenseful, unputdownable Tara Sivec. This time it’s about DJ and Phina and takes place right… Read More
Wild and Free (The Three Series #3) Paranormal Romance. Though the story can stand alone, you need to read the first two for full enjoyment. If you follow my blog at all, you know my absolute love for all things Kristen Ashley. I had saved her paranormal books so I would have something different to read that I know could… Read More
Until November by Aurora Rose Reynolds Contemporary Romance. 1st in a series of interrelated Standalones. When Megan tells me I HAVE to read a book, I always listen if I can. We have the same taste, and she has never steered me wrong. I didn’t listen to audiobooks a lot when I started this one (I just started to listen… Read More
