Full disclosure, I am a huge Courtney Milan fangirl. She is simply the best at writing fun, swoony, smart romances. So when I found out she was writing something modern, I had to get my hands on it. She did not disappoint! In some ways, I actually liked this modern story better than her historical romances. Trade Me alternates viewpoints between billionaire Blake Reynolds and overworked Tina Chen. Tina is just trying to make it through college so she can get a good job and […]

Note to Self: Always Trust Courtney Milan!
I admit, even though I absolutely adore everything I’ve read by Courtney Milan, I had a teeny moment of hesitation about picking up Trade Me. I’m usually not interested in contemporary romance, and “New Adult” as a genre name irrationally bugs me. I’m so glad I decided to check out the first chapter when she posted it on her website, though, because I was instantly hooked. And of course the full book was amazing too. I should never have had a doubt.
Even Lesser Courtney Milan Is Better Than Most Romances
Wrapping up her brilliant Brothers Sinister series, the novella Talk Sweetly to Me, wisely centers on one of Milan’s most charming characters: Stephen Shaughnessy. Readers know him as the sole male writer for the newspaper in the penultimate book in the series, The Suffragette Scandal. An irreverent iconoclast, he makes an unlikely suitor for an astronomer’s computer (mathematician) and also the perfect one to help her seize her chance at happiness on her own terms. Courtney Milan continues to play with tropes and write spectacular […]
Courtney Milan does it again. Now with New Adult
4.5 stars Disclaimer! I was given an ARC of this through NetGalley in return for a fair and unbiased review. Of course, it being a Courtney Milan book, I had also already pre-ordered it, because I will buy anything she writes, even if said thing is a scientific treatise on spiders and cockroaches (the things that creep my out the most). If Ms. Milan ever reads this – please don’t ever write a book like that. I will buy it, but I might not like […]
Two five stars in a row from me for this series. I love it so much!
The Marquis Who Mustn't (Wedgeford Trials, #2) by Courtney Milan
As often happens with books that I five-star love and gobble up in a mindless pleasure fest of reading indulgently, I am finding it hard to have anything to say beyond BOOK GOOD READ NOW. But let’s try anyway. This is the second book in Courtney Milan’s Wedgeford Trials series, about a small town in Victorian England that is full of mostly Chinese emigrants (as always, the author’s notes are a must-read for historical context) but other members of the Asian diaspora as well. The […]
Lovely and Charming Christmas Novella
Some Winter's Evening by Erin Langston
This was a lovely and charming sequel novella to Erin Langston’s Forever Your Rogue. If you haven’t read Forever Your Rogue yet, you really should. You will understand Gavin’s reluctance to endanger Emilia’s reputation, and if you enjoy a man who falls head first into love and domesticity, Nate is that in spades. Gavin Sinclair is Cora’s brother, the barrister who worked tirelessly on her suit to reclaim guardianship of her children from the relatives intent on bleeding her son’s inheritance dry. Since succeeding on Cora’s case, […]
