Romance Book and Audiobook Reviews and Deals
Midnight Sun by Stephanie Meyer Read by Jake Abel Twelve years ago I was subbing for middle school and noticed students were sneaking reading time in class. I’ve always been a reader, but at that time I was more into TV and some occasional funny mom-lit. As I got to know the students, they convinced me to read Twilight. I… Read More
My Favorite Souvenir by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward Narrated by Andi Arndt and Sebastian York Standalone Romantic Comedy I highly advise not reading the blurb of My Favorite Souvenir by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward unless you want the whole story basically spoiled for you.

Gypsy King (Tin Gypsy #1) by Devney Perry Narrated by Ava Erickson and Teddy Hamilton 1st in a series of connected standalones. I didn’t review Gypsy King by Devney Perry right after I read it because quite honestly, I just didn’t have much to say. I enjoyed it but forgot it the next day. Since I review every book I… Read More

The Mister by E.L. James Narrated by Dominic Thorburn, Jessica O’Hara-Baker Contemporary Romance. Currently a standalone, but a little open-ended for a follow-up. I loved Fifty Shades. Sure, there were some issues, but overall, how the books made me FEEL overruled everything. E.L. James changed my life in many ways, so it was with a bit of trepidation that I… Read More

Neighbors and The Neighborhood (Twin Estates 1 and 2) by Stylo Fantôme Narrated by Grayson Ash New/Adult/Adult Contemporary. These two must be read together. It’s been a while since I listened to Neighbors and The Neighborhood by Stylo Fantôme, and I am catching up on reviews, so this will be a little less detailed than usual. Interestingly enough, I like… Read More
The American Queen Series (AKA the New Camelot Series) by Sierra Simone Narrated by Stephanie Rose and Guy Locke Erotic Political Trilogy, must be read in order. None stand alone. I don’t usually like to commit to three books, but so many people insisted that I read the American Queen (New Camelot) Series and everyone I know loved it. I… Read More

Under Locke by Mariana Zapata Narrated by Callie Dalton Standalone New Adult Romance Under Locke by Mariana Zapata has been on my radar since it released. But at over 800 pages, this wasn’t a book I could just squeeze in. I do, however, enjoy a longer audiobook. So when I saw this was out in audio (16+ hours!), I grabbed… Read More
Arrogant Bastard by Winter Renshaw New Adult Taboo Romance Narrated by George Wickham Jr. and Angela Moore Standalone start of an Interrelated Series. The story continues, but it can stand alone because the next is about another couple. I need to start by saying I stupidly didn’t even read the blurb before jumping into Arrogant Bastard. Winter Renshaw is constantly… Read More
