Twice as Hard by Amber Bardan is billed as a dark, taboo romance. In reality, there’s a significant plot twist halfway through that changes the course of the book. There’s also quite a bit of angst thrown in for good measure. While portions of the story are super hot, the twist threw off the story […]
ALERT: Dirty Talk, Secret Pleasure by Opal Carew is HOT HOT HOT. This book is super short and ends on a cliffhanger but I DON’T CARE. I loved this novella and can’t wait for the next installment. Sonny lives in fear of men. She has some type of trauma in her past–it hasn’t been revealed […]
There’s something about Shayla Black’s writing that really appeals to me, even when the plot is over-the-top and kind of wild. Naughty Little Secret has that type of plot, but I just went along with it and ended up really enjoying the book. Divorcee and single mom Lauren is crushing pretty hard on Noah, who […]
Bedding the Highlander by Sabrina York is part of James Patterson’s BookShots Flames collection. If I’m not mistaken, this is the first historical in the Flames line. I had hoped that this would be a quick and fun read, but unfortunately I found it boring and I struggled to finish it. Following a declared truce […]

Here’s the thing about Charlotte Stein’s books: they’re just so damn good. I savored my read of Never Better, a slow burn romance that masterfully builds a sense of longing and intensity between its main characters. Never Better is book #3 in Stein’s Dark Obsession series, but each is a standalone. In this book, Lydia […]
It’s Romance Reveal Book Box time! Unlike previous months, I got impatient and peeked at other people’s boxes on Facebook and Instagram, so I had a good idea of what I would be getting this month. This was another great box! Here’s everything that I received: Signed copy of Crazy Stupid Love by Melissa Toppen […]
Under Her Skin by Adriana Anders blew me away. Its raw sincerity, combined with a romance that I can only describe as urgent and primal, completely pummeled my heart. Uma is on the run from an abusive past. Her ex-boyfriend, Joey, was a manipulator who controlled Uma’s life, cutting her off from family and friends. […]
People call me Ruthless for a reason. Whether I’m in the court room or in the bedroom, my reputation is well-earned. I’m either working hard, working out, or working my way into some woman’s panties. But none of them share my particular kink, and I walk away feeling unsatisfied. Until I met her. She’s a […]

It follows Catherine Rousseau, an Army veteran turned U.S. Senator, and Harrison Parker, Catherine’s Senate colleague and romantic interest. Catherine served as an Army Judge Advocate General attorney and was wounded in an attack by a suicide bomber in Iraq. She […]
