Review of ‘Bait and switch’ by Blythe Warren.
This is an enjoyable lesbian rom-com with emphasis in the comedy part. Written in first person from the point of view of marine biologist Liv Cucinelli, the story starts when she meets her former college nemesis Mira. To say that Liv holds a grudge against Mira for ruining her college career is an understatement, but […]
Review of ‘Definite possibility’ by Maggie Cummings.
This is book 3 of Bay West Social series about a group of friends living in a lesbian condo in Staten Island. I haven’t read the previous two so I feel that I lost a bit on the background story of some characters. However, ‘Definite possibility’ reads as a stand alone novel. The story revolves […]
Review of ‘A time to die’ by Anne Laughlin.
This is the first book I read by this author and was pleasantly surprised. It’s an entertaining mystery with a bit of sweet romance in the background. It’s got all the ingredients for an enjoyable read: mystery, plot twists and romance. Even though there are some gruesome parts they are well balanced with humour. The […]
Review of ‘Mine to keep’ by Wendy Hudson.
Three things made me read this book: its cover, the title and Ms. Hudson’s excellent debut novel ‘Four steps’. So I had high expectations that unfortunately didn’t quite deliver for me. ‘Mine to keep’ is a romantic suspense with the romance sweet and tender but the suspense quite predictable. Because the reader can guess where […]
Review of ‘Summer’s cove’ by Aurora Rey.
This is the second book in the series A Cape end but it reads fine as a stand alone novel. It’s the story of Darcy, a single-mother of an 8 year-old boy and Emerson, a single artist and photographer. As their attraction develops, so does Darcy’s reluctance to open up to a relationship that could […]
Review of ‘Strike a match’ by Fiona Riley.
This is book number 3 of Fiona Riley’s Perfect Match series, this time featuring hot firefighter Sasha and reluctant millionairess Abby. Even though it’s ok to read it as a stand alone, you’ll enjoy it more by reading the series chronologically. This book is entertaining, romantic and downright hot. The chemistry between the main characters […]
Review of ‘Twice in a lifetime’ by Clare Lydon.
Clare Lydon is a pro writer of feel-good lesbian romantic comedies. Her books are the equivalent of a hot chocolate in front of a fireplace: they leave the reader all warm inside. Normally her stories are inspired in London and have a British feel, but this time Ms. Lydon decided to depart from her comfort […]
Review of ‘Who’d have thought’ by G Benson.
This author is writing better and better every time and this book in particular is getting on my list of the best 2017 books so far. The theme of sham marriage is not new in lesfic but Benson presents it here so skillfully that makes up for the lack of originality. Both main characters are […]
Review of ‘Lesbian romance: The energy between us’ by Josslyn Scott.
This is a debut novella about Erin, an allegedly straight office worker, and her yoga instructor Dione. Erin starts practising yoga because she feels the need for a life change but gets a different outcome than the one she expected, a change that questions her sexuality. As a yoga enthusiast myself, the book’s main idea […]
