Romance and Urban Fantasy Book Reviews
Not long ago I read Wanderlust by Skye Warren. It was a pretty intense read and after I finished it I was in the mood for more from this author but not quite ready for something as dark as Wanderlust was. I came across a short story written by the author called Beauty Touched the [...]
The Summer He Came Home by Juliana Stone is the first book in the Bad Boys of Crystal Lake series. Although the hero is a rock star you shouldn’t expect any rock star, tour bus antics. This is a small town contemporary romance featuring the town’s bad boy who has come home for the funeral [...]
Seth and Erin have known each other for many years but only in a casual sense. They grew up around each other and now work in the same field so they run into each other now and then. When they both attend a funeral for a beloved family member/friend, they end up taking one night of [...]
After finishing Blood Roses I had to sit down and really think about how to write this review and what rating I wanted to settle on. I very much enjoyed the first book in the series, Blood Shadows. Dark, very well written, with fully fleshed out characters that were so intriguing. I also enjoyed the world building [...]
Oh, that tricky Ms. Kery. If you have been following my mini reviews then you know that I am quite hooked on Ian and Francesca. I scour the pages for the slightest mention of their names.

Katie Porter seems to be popping up on my radar a lot lately. I have heard some good things and some mixed things in the reviews I have read. I decided to go ahead and try one of her books to decide for myself. I will tell you one thing, there are no lukewarm feelings in [...]
In the hospital ER where she works, Mary is used to chaos. But lately, every aspect of her life seems adrift. She’s feeling disconnected from herself. Voices appear in her head. And the vivid, disturbing dreams she’s had all her life are becoming more intense. Then she meets Michael. He’s handsome, enigmatic and knows more [...]
Two major things took place in part IV of When I’m With You. One event I did not like and then other one was a long time coming and was driven by the first event. In part III Lucien learned that Elise was living in a dump. At the beginning of this installment he insists [...]
Part II’s installment ended with Elise catching Lucien eavesdropping on Ian’s phone call. We still don’t know what Lucien is trying to accomplish with Ian and I don’t like that. Ian is my boy, you know? Somehow Elise catching Lucien turns into a sexual encounter with her on her knees. I have to say that Ms. Kery writes [...]
