In the Shadow of the Past by J. E. Leak

This book has the perfect summer energy I just finished reading In the Shadow of the Past and wow. This book has the perfect summer energy, sexy, sultry heat abounds.

Queen by J. S. Fields

Queen by J. S. Fields

An exciting new series by the author of the Ardulum trilogy I’m never going to look at rabbits the same way. Nor beetles but I don’t look at beetles much, I’m squeamish that way. I love Fields’ Ardulum books but I’m not going to lie, I didn’t enjoy Foxfire in the Snow as much, and […]

AITA? by Cassie Alexander, narrated by Avery Caris

AITA? by Cassie Alexander

Color me pleasantly surprised! After reading and thoroughly enjoying this novel, I was happily surprised to see it released on audiobook. I’ve never heard of Avery Caris, it seems that this is her first f/f story though she has narrated quite a few m/f novels. I have to admit that this wasn’t at all what […]

Perks of Office by Liz Rain

Perks of Office is a dream debut you really don’t want to miss Perks of Office by Liz Rain is a dream debut, really. I want to congratulate Ylva for their good taste in publishing this fresh new Aussie author. I super enjoyed this one. For some reason, I always feel that down-under writers bring […]

If I don’t ask by EJ Noyes

If I don't ask by EJ Noyes

An absolute pleasure to read My feelings after finishing this book can be summarised in a four-letter word: sigh. I’m an unashamed fan of the Ask, Tell series and when Ms. Noyes announced that she was writing another book, I did a happy dance. This novel feels like a belated birthday present, so thank you, […]
