Trigger warning: Rape. I read this for Romance Book Bingo 2017: Twins square. Please note that I gave this book 3.5 stars and rounded it up to 4 stars here. I have to say that the third book in this trilogy is my favorite. Maybe because this book calls back a location from one of Coulter’s medieval books, I want to say “Fire Song”. I have to look it up. Either way, I loved the little Easter eggs that are dropped. Plus we get […]
Second Book in Magic Trilogy Better Than the First
I read this for Romance Book Bingo 2017: Rogue square. Please note that I gave this book 3.5 stars and rounded it up to 4 here. I was tempted to just say slavery is bad and be done with this review, but no, I have to elaborate. Honestly this is not as bad as the first book in the Magic Trilogy, but it’s still about a 3 out of 5 for me. Maybe because the whole slavery aspect of this book was so distasteful. At […]
Another Goodbye Girl
I read this for Romance Book Bingo 2017: Guy/Girl Next Door square. Though I really did enjoy 2 out of the 3 Dessen books I reviewed yesterday, this one fell very short. It has classic Dessen moments (or what I consider classic). However, the flow of this book was pretty bad. It took me a while to get through it, and I am not going to lie, I started skimming a bit last night because I was seriously bored the whole time. I think the […]
There is More Than One Way Into a Keep
I read this for Romance Book Bingo 2017: Man in a Kilt square. I have to have some happy right now and this book is it. I have been reading this since I was 12 or 13 and still have a copy of it on my shelves. The heroine (Johanna) kicks butt. The hero (Gabriel) kicks butt. We actually have a hero/heroine who thank God do not have any rape scenes between them. They reluctantly fall in love with each other which I thought was […]
Romance is Not for the Faint of Heart
Trigger warning: Rape The only thing that this book had going for it, was that it kept making me think of the Jem and the Holograms song, “Midsummer Madness.” I maybe played that song a lot while reading this book on Saturday. I needed some happy heading my way. Think of this book as the reverse “She’s All That.” Heroine is actually hot and smart young woman (Frances) who doesn’t want to marry the hero (Phillip). Hero marries her anyway though because he thinks she’s […]
King Mark Does Not Equal King Arthur
Trigger warning: Rape The heroine saved this book. Also though the hero did too eventually. A legacy of husbands only bedding their wives for an heir, and for them to wander along the moors being all sad and aloof was just flat out stupid. I maybe said that a few times. A family tradition of being cuckholded is some alt-right (you are Nazis!) crap. We have an appearance by Marcus and the Duchess (also we get to read about Marcus talking about how much his […]
