“You could have kissed me or slit my throat and either would have made as much sense.”

A Dowry of Blood by ST Gibson

January 13, 2023 by Pooja 2 Comments

CBR15 Passport Challenge: Books you already own #1 In a lyrical letter to the lover she killed, Constanta recounts their history together, as well as that of his other ‘brides,’ and what drove them to do as they did. I had high hopes for this book. I don’t usually love vampire romances, because I feel like they often underplay the dark and twisted nature of the vampires of myth – so the fact that this book promised to go back to those terrifying roots drew […]

I enjoyed this book so much that I am upset on behalf of the author that it isn’t more widely read. #CBRBINGO – Rec’d

Three Part Harmony (Plot Twist, #2) by Holley Trent

November 2, 2022 by narfna 2 Comments

I never go in expecting too much from romances written by new to me authors, because I never know what I’m going to get, but I should have trusted Emmalita’s taste, because this book was really lovely. (Though it does bother me that the dude on the cover does not resemble either male love interest.) Our three characters are: Raleigh, a book publicist with trust issues; Everley, the daughter of Raleigh’s boss, who everyone sees as having it easy just because she’s the boss’s daughter; […]

And she was never ours to claim.

Wicked Beauty by Katee Robert

August 15, 2022 by Pooja 2 Comments

CBR 14 Bingo: Rec’d Katee Robert is probably not an author I would have gotten into without all the hearty recommendations of her that I have read! Helen Kasios wants to be more than a pawn, and competing in the trials to become Ares seems to be her way out. But her family has other plans for her, and her brother offers her hand in marriage to whoever wins. Of course, I love Katee Robert’s books, and I really enjoy her more plot-heavy Olympus books. […]

I deserve more than to be a prize

Wicked Beauty by Katee Robert

May 23, 2022 by Emmalita 5 Comments

I was asked why I wanted to read Katee Robert’s Wicked Beauty and I said it was because I wanted to see a Helen who wasn’t a pawn, and definitely a Helen who got better partners than Paris and Menelaus. Wicked Beauty delivers that with a Helen who is determined to dictate her own future, and finds herself in a competitors to lovers relationship with Achilles and Patroclus. Katee Robert’s Dark Olympus series is less a retelling of Greek mythology and more in the style […]

A Romance All About Expectations

The Life Revamp by Kris Ripper

November 20, 2021 by faintingviolet 2 Comments

I received an ARC from Carina Press via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The Life Revamp publishes November 30th, 2021. This was a first for me, a romance featuring a polyamorous relationship, but one I had been looking for. Kris Ritter’s The Life Revamp tells the story of Mason, who wants to fall in love, get married and live happily ever after. You know, live the fairytale a little. His luck has been less than stellar, including being left at the alter as […]

“This sort of thing happens more and more as I age out of ‘attractive and unattached’ territory and into ‘destined to die a spinster’ territory.“

The Life Revamp by Kris Ripper

November 6, 2021 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

What do you do when what you want more than anything is to get married, but your perfect man is married to the woman who set the two of you up on a blind date? Mason has been dating a man who seems perfect, but they keep not taking the step from casual to serious. Meanwhile, his friend Claris has finally nagged him into agreeing to a date with her husband, a fashion designer named Diego. They are in an open relationship. While Mason is […]
