When the romance isn’t too believable

Moonstruck Vlume 3 Troubled Waters by Grace Ellis, Shae Beagle

by Leave a Comment

I wasn’t too sure about the Moonstruck series after volume 2; volume 3 has redeemed things a bit. Even though it kind of splits of the coffee shop gang a little, with Chet (centaur) going off for an internship and Julie goes with Selena to a mermaid Festival. Most of the volume follows Julie and Selena, who meet up with Selena’s friend and roomie, the mermaid Skyla (Julie apparently has never met her and didn’t know Skyla and Selena live together). Naturally things don’t go […]

Twisty mystery and snarky humor

Cry Wolf by Charlie Adhara

by 2 Comments

“Dreams change. People change. Please just don’t stop giving me the chance to change with you.” I absolutely adore this series! Five books in, Oliver and Park feel like old friends, and I know to expect a good twisty mystery, lots of snarky humor, and a steamy and sweet relationship between them. This series can’t be read out of order, and this review will contain spoilers for previous books. “Ignorance and influence are rarely as unrelated as they should be. You have a lot more […]

Dear readers, I’m not going to lie, I’m racing against the clock to get all of my reviews finished in time for the CBR12 deadline (12 noon EST – or 6 pm Oslo time). I also need to finish 25% of the final novel I’m reviewing, co-parent my autocratic, demanding, and rather clingy almost-three-year-old, plan and prep a three-course New Year’s meal, and possibly do some last-minute shopping. No pressure, right? So when fellow Cannonballer Pixifer posted a review with all of her DNF’s for the year, […]

I started the Mercy Thompson series when Moon Called was selected for the VF book club in 2015. I enjoyed the first book but got caught up with other urban fantasy series from Ilona Andrews and Kim Harrison. Over the summer, I was reminded of the series during a virtual Mocha Girls Read meeting. I decided to dive back in with the audio narration and ended up reading three in a row. Mercedes (Mercy) Thompson isn’t looking for trouble in the tri-cities area of Washington. […]

These fierce Honey Badger sisters are not meant to be underestimated

Hot and Badgered (Honey Badger Chronicles #1) by Shelly Laurenston

In a Badger Way (Honey Badger Chronicles #2) by Shelly Laurenston

by 1 Comment

Since I enjoyed Shelly Laurenston’s Call of Crows series, I started her new trilogy focused on shifters rather than Viking warriors. We got a very small peek of the shifter world in the Crow books, so I was intrigued. The Honey Badger Chronicles follows the misadventures of three sisters who can’t seem to stay out of trouble. I fell in love with these feisty shifter women almost instantly. I thought the Crow warrior women were intense and uncouth, but these fierce sisters are fearless AF […]
