Romance Book and Audiobook Reviews and Deals
The Gamble is another amazing Kristen Ashley book that kept me up for almost two days straight. I began reading Kristen Ashley’s books with the book after this in the Colorado Mountain Series, Sweet Dreams (OMG—TOTALLY AMAZING!), then I read the one after, and moved on to The Burg series without ever reading The Gamble. Honestly, the reviews on goodreads… Read More
I read The Unidentified Redhead (Redhead #1) a couple of weeks ago and  absolutely LOVED it. It made me so happy when I read it, that I dreaded not having another book by Alice Clayton to look forward to. So I decided to have a little self control and wait till I need a happy-making book to read #2. I knew… Read More
I am in my mid forties. It is getting to time when the “change” begins. Maybe I shouldn’t have been so looking forward to not getting my period anymore. Because getting there sucks! Just when our sex lives are better than ever, I become irregular and we never have a “safe” time to look forward to. Due… Read More

Yay! I loved Frenemies (A Girl Next Door Novella 2). When I read C.C.’s first book, Friends With Benefits,  a couple of weeks ago, I was so excited that I was the first to review it on goodreads and second on Amazon. I felt like I discovered her (even though she found me). So when C.C. send me Frenemies, this time I… Read More
For this “Top Picks” List, I will only choose from books that were released and I read in the first six months of 2012. That includes about 60 of the 82 books I have read so far this year. This is SO HARD to pick 6! Book covers and titles lead to AMAZON. 1-Fifty Shades Freed by EL… Read More
HOT SEXY ROCK STAR AND HOT SEXY SEX ALERT!!!! Olivia Cunning, author of two of my favorite books Backstage Pass and Rock Hard, brings us the first novella in a new series, about another hot rock band! This review is based on knowing Try Me (One Night with Sole Regret series) was just a novella going in. It is very hard… Read More
Here are the dozen books (or series starters) I recommend for any adult woman to read this summer. There are quite a lot of books to choose from, and picking a top 12 is not easy, but I will pick this list from books I have read over the past  year and a half (That is about 150-200 books!) (Actually,… Read More
The Colorado Mountain Series by Kristen Ashley. Interconnected Standalones. To say that I love Kristen Ashley would be an understatement. Her books all have hot Alpha men, hot sex (but not over the top at all), great heroines, love, suspense, and great epilogues. They are all nice and juicy and long. Her heroines tend to be a bit older and… Read More
Favorite Dom/sub BDSM Romance Books See a more updated list in What to Read After Fifty Shades of Grey I love me some alpha men. I love a man who can take control in the bedroom. I like like to play in the bedroom and get fairly kinky. But I really enjoy reading about the more intense Dom/sub relationships. The… Read More
First off, props to the guy on the cover! Holy hell, what a bod! Very important: to get the best experience with this book, read the first: Masters at Arms. Nobody’s Angel by Kallypso Masters builds on the story started in the first book about Marc and Angelina, but also brings in a new character, Luke. In the last book,… Read More
Masters at Arms by Kallypso Masters is a great start to the Rescue Me series. Beware, that’s what this is……a START. This FREE book is actually a prequel to the next three individual books. The book reads like an anthology until 60% through when the characters get together. All of their stories begin before they are shipped to the Gulf… Read More
Holy Sweet Nuts! I absolutely LOVED The Unidentified Redhead by Alice Clayton!!!! Are you PMS-ing? In a bad mood? Just read a depressing book? Do you need to feel good, laugh, smile, and just plain enjoy a book without angst? This is the book for you. This is definitely in my best books of the year list, and Alice Clayton… Read More
I read Flat Out Love by Jessica Park last summer. I have probably read 150 books since then, easily. But this book has remained with me as one of the most unique, special books I have ever read. 5++++ stars for story, 1/2 H for heat. Julie is starting college in Boston. When her campus housing falls through, she has… Read More
Kristen Ashley has officially ruined me. No other books leave me feeling like hers do! I am so glad I have been pacing myself through her books. They are an indulgence, and need to be treated as such. If I read them all in a row they might lose that special feeling I get when I read her books. You… Read More
The Dream Man Series Reading Order by Kristen Ashley BEWARE!!!!! Kristen’s books are a little long, and so, so good you don’t want to put them down. My advice? Don’t start them at night if you want to get to sleep. Her books all have a similar feel. Each one of them so far have been “unputdownable”. While there are a… Read More
Holiday Bound by Beth Kery is a book that I’ve read a few times. I read it last Christmas and the Christmas before (a few times). It still stands out as one of my favorites. Alex’s estranged father is coming to visit his ski resort and meeting his much younger girlfriend there. When a blizzard closes the roads, Angeline (the… Read More
On the Island by Tracey Garvis-Graves kept coming up on my recommendations from Amazon. For some reason, I kept avoiding it. I think it is because of the cover–a lone woman on the beach. Even the description wouldn’t have sold me (I like my men alpha, not boys) but when a few of my goodreads buddies said they loved it,… Read More
OMG. I abso-freakin-lutely LOVED Games of the Heart by Kristen Ashley!!!! LOVE-LOVE-LOVE!!!! So, I say this about almost every Kristen Ashley book (because I love them all) but this one, I think, may be my favorite. I loved Mike in At Peace, but I really loved him here. He is an amazing, protective dad, an honest cop, and a HOT,… Read More
The Burg Series by Kristen Ashley Kristen Ashley has a way of writing cool, tough, HOT alpha males like nobody else. Almost all of her men are good guys in security, policework or something similar. They are straight shooters who are old fashioned in many ways. They pay, they protect their women, and they always man-up. The heroines are… Read More
Unleashed Ross Siblings #1 (but there is a prequel, see below) by Cherrie Lynn was a great friends-to-lovers, second chances story. Kelsey found her husband in bed with her best friend from college, Evan’s fiance, leading to the break-up of both of their relationships. Kelsey always had a crush on Evan, but by the time Evan came around, Kelsey was already… Read More
Backstage Pass (Sinners on Tour #1) by Olivia Cunning is one of my favorites. If you like ‘kinky fuckery’ Â then you will like this. But it isn’t just about the sex, there was actually a great story! Brian is the lead guitarist for top Rock Band the Sinners. Myrna (ugh, poor girl with that name) is a Psychology Professor who… Read More
Updated January 2023 The Night Huntress and Night Huntress World books by Jeaniene Frost are my absolute favorite book series ever. Fifty Shades of Grey is up there too but I’m not sure anything could knock down Cat and Bones. You say you don’t like vampire books? Have you ever really tried? Bones is rich, impossibly handsome, strong, dangerous, controlling,… Read More
Love Unscripted by Tina Reber is one of those books that has remained on my favorites list despite reading a whole bunch of other phenomenal books since. I have also become her facebook friend and her sense of humor and creativity keep getting better. On to the book. Ryan is a MEGA star (I picture him like Brad Pitt). Taryn is… Read More
