Unbroken by Alli Temple
Can sapphic pirates ever retire? This book got my adrenaline pumping and my heart beating fast. In Uncharted, Lady Georgina Elizabeth Millicent Cressida Wright reunited with her childhood friend Lou (just Lou) who had, in the meantime, become the infamous Captain Cinder.

The Raven and the Banshee by Carolyn Elizabeth
A fun swashbuckling adventure! A fun swashbuckling adventure! What a great way to start 2022 off with a Carolyn Elizabeth book. While Elizabeth has only been published since 2019, all of her books have been great, if not wonderful, ranging in the 4-5 stars range. Elizabeth is not only an automatic read for me, but […]

This novel was in my top ten […]
A dark and bittersweet romance between a pirate and a princess
Review of Uncharted by Alli Temple Alli Temple usually writes m/m contemporary romance (as Allison Temple) so I can’t say I was familiar with her work before this book came along. I don’t know why, maybe the cover? Maybe the blurb? Whatever it was, I couldn’t let this book pass me by. I mean, lesbian […]
