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

In the three years since Ana’s Attic began, I… 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

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
