Cover of Charlotte Stein’s My Big Fat Fake Marriage

He constantly reminds me of a dark-haired Steve Rogers, not entirely grasping that Hooters isn’t really just a hot wings place.

My Big Fat Fake Marriage by Charlotte Stein

March 11, 2025 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

Ahhhhhhh! I loved My Big Fat Fake Marriage! It is so delightfully bonkers, and sweet, and filthy. Charlotte Stein has become an auto-buy author for me. Her books are so joyful while also digging into very relatable anxieties. Connie has a lot of experience with the modern London Nice Guy, and she knows better than to trust a nice guy. Her neighbor, Beck, is just so nice. He says “howdy neighbor” and leaves her pies that he baked himself. Beck is so nice that Connie is […]

Don’t say what the heck at me as if what I said is so absurd, Seth. Yesterday you told me vampires exist. I watched your face grow fifty extra bones and a thousand more teeth.

How to Help a Hungry Werewolf by Charlotte Stein

December 17, 2024 by Emmalita 3 Comments

Charlotte Stein’s How to Help a Hungry Werewolf is one of the horniest books I have ever read. It is incredibly innocent and filthy at the same time. I laughed and I blushed. I also felt like this book was written just for me, which has made it very difficult to review. Cassie Camberwell doesn’t know she’s a witch until she inherits her grandmother’s house, meets her ex-best friend again, finds a notebook with recipes and brews up a potion. And it turns out that […]

All I did was phone you. Then be in the same restaurant as you. Then watch you from across a crowded coffee place. Then follow you down a street when it’s getting dark and there’s no one else around and oh okay right yeah I’m seeing it now yep it’s dawning on me…

When Grumpy Met Sunshine by Charlotte Stein

February 6, 2024 by Emmalita 9 Comments

I don’t even know how to talk about this book. One of the things I loved best about it was the way Charlotte Stein used words to illuminate her characters, but I’m reading an advance reader copy so I’m not supposed to quote from it. I’m going to have to share a quote though because otherwise I’m just going to blather a bunch of dumb words at you. She saw it happen, almost immediately. All in one big rush, like he couldn’t contain it. Her […]

Mega Review!! Three pieces of crap, one unremarkable episode, and a nugget of purest green!

June 1, 2017 by FyreHaar 5 Comments

Now, I know what you’re thinking “Fyre, you know you HATE billionaire romances!” I know! So over done! But I love me some menage so I was willing to wade into these treacherous waters for a bargain price. I present my real time notes from this collection. This is a long review but, I hope, worth your while. Drilled by Opal Carew Already stilted dialog. I’ll come along. Gah. Show don’t tell. Stop using the word glided for everything. It’s a horrible word, it sounds […]
