Sucker Punch – Pretty Devils (Wrestling Girls #2) by Kayla Faber
A feel-good romance with sweat and bruises Liv is pretty desperate: she hates her job as a nightclub waitress and her home feels like a prison, with her alcoholic and gambling-addict mother spending all Liv’s hard-earned money. On a whim, she tries out for a spot as a wrestler at the Beatcave and lands a […]
Hotshot by Clare Lydon
Another entertaining romance by Clare Lydon I’ve listened to Clare Lydon talking about this book in the podcast Lesbians Who Write which she co-hosts with TB Markinson. Since then, I was intrigued by this novel. Sports is one of the favourite tropes for Sapphic readers and with the Women’s Soccer (Football in the UK) World […]
Catch by Kris Bryant
Kris Bryant always writes characters I can’t help loving Being a woman in the NFL is no mean feat but Sutton McCoy made it. Not as a quarterback like when she was in high school but as the next best thing: she’s the new offensive coordinator for an NFL expansion team. Little does she know […]
Line Chemistry by K.R. Collins
This slow burn really was worth the wait Do not read this review if you haven’t read the previous books in the series. I’m not spoiling this book itself, not more than the blurb does, but this part of the story is the result of everything that happened in the six books before. Go read […]
The Game Changer by Finley Chuva
A promising debut novel The Game Changer is Finley Chuva’s debut novel and the beginning of a series. It is a nice romance novel set in the world of soccer and board game cafes. Elena Torres is a professional soccer player and that means everything to her. She also has a hobby that she loves […]

Calling the Shots by Kelly Farmer
Excellent chemistry and character growth aplenty Calling the Shots is the third book in Kelly Farmer’s Out on the Ice series. Some twenty years ago, Regan and Tierney had a week or so of great sex and possibilities but Regan flaked out and Tierney moved on. When they meet again as coaches to rival teams […]
Schuss by E.J. Noyes
A really nice YA book It’s Halloween eve right now and instead of ghosts, vampires, and witches, I’m thinking about skiing, Winter Olympics, and first real love, and that just shows the power of E.J. Noyes because there is no other author that could have made me abandoned my spooky movies and books, right before […]
The Clinch by Nicole Disney, narrated by Keira Grace
The audiobook version didn’t meet my expectations fully When this novel was released, I have to admit that I wasn’t convinced of reading a novel about Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) fighting even with the promise of a lesbian romance but I’m so delighted that I did because it was my favourite book of 2021. Since […]
