129 - Seduced by Moonlight by Kenya Wright
Wednesday Feb 08, 2023
Wednesday Feb 08, 2023
This book is HOT. Aiden is the alpha of a wolfpack trying to find a safe place to settle down and move on from the supernatural wars that have left magical creature populations decimated. He and his pack mates have arrived in Crystal Lake where he runs into Imani. The attraction between the two of them is instantly palpable to everyone around and leads to conflict in the pack and with Imani’s friends and family. But the way their bodies respond to each other cannot be denied. As Imani is introduced to this unknown world of magic and shifters she is also figuring out how to let down her walls and let Aiden in. We get lots of hot sex and fun moments to discuss and explore.

128 - His Fate by A. K. Graves
Wednesday Jan 25, 2023
Wednesday Jan 25, 2023
This is the first book in the Bound Beyond Blood series by AK Graves and a super fun introduction to this world and this author. We loved these giant cinnamon roll Dragon Shifters, especially Kai. After fleeing their homeland when attacked by a rival dragon clan and losing much of their family Kai and his 3 brothers expect to lay low in the sleep mountain community in the Pacific Northwest. Surprise surprise when all 4 find their fated mates among the women in town and uncover a larger lot by their enemy Cyril. This story includes found family, insta-love, cinnamon roll heroes, and all the steamy scenes we could want! Don’t miss the final steamy scene, and our favorite, the “why doesn’t every dragon shifter book include this” dragon hoard sex scene.

127- Shades of Wicked by Jeaniene Frost
Wednesday Jan 11, 2023
Wednesday Jan 11, 2023
This is our favorite Jeaniene Frost book yet! We cannot get enough of Ian and Veritas. This couple is seriously too hot to handle. We love all the tropes in this book: fake relationship, lost memories, false public persona, past trauma, and secrets! It is so nice to have two equally strong bad ass paranormals as the main characters. Veritas doesn’t need to be brought up to speed on the whole vampire/supernatural thing. And she can give as good as In when it comes to kicking ass. Their sex is literally an explosive force that destroys their physical surroundings. Ian is the sexy debauched vampire I want to spend a smutty month with! And drunk Veritas is my kindred spirit! We can’t wait to continue their story in the next 2 books.

126 - Unhinged by Helen Hardt
Wednesday Dec 28, 2022
Wednesday Dec 28, 2022
It has been a while but we finally return to the Blood Bond Saga by Helen Hardt for Dante and Erin’s story. This whole book is a battle between logic and emotion, head versus heart, closely held beliefs against newly discovered information. Erin wants to accept Dante for everything he is but her heart and logic keep getting in the way, I mean vampires can’t be real right?!?!? There are some tough themes in this book, torture and abuse, lying by omission, using glamor to ‘protect’ someone from their own emotions. Dante and Erin have a lot to overcome as the series continues. One thing we can say, Helen doesn’t hold back on the sex in these books. The steamy scenes are plenty and very hot. Even with the vampires and werewolves and ghosts, the illogical way both Erin and Dante were acting during this honeymoon stage of their relationship is totally relatable.

125 - Waking in a Witchy Wonderland by Juliette Cross
Wednesday Dec 14, 2022
Wednesday Dec 14, 2022
This is a collection of short holiday stories in the Stay a Spell world by Juliet Cross, best read between book 3 and 4 of the series. We cannot express our love for this series in words. These 5 stories give us a fun peek at some of our favorite characters who we have already watched fall in love plus the bonus story of JJ and Charlie finally getting together. If you haven’t had a chance to listen to the audiobooks for this series you are missing out. Aiden Snow’s voice is a wonder to behold and him doing both voices for JJ and Charlie is a beautiful thing! These were fun, sexy shorts and helped get us in the holiday mood.

124 - Rejected by Jaymin Eve
Wednesday Nov 30, 2022
Wednesday Nov 30, 2022
This is our first ever rejected mate book and wow did we start out BIG! This book is just the beginning of the Shadow beast Shifters series and we are totally here for it. To say that a lot of this book is world building and background would be an understatement. But still, we got the beginnings of an interesting relationship dynamic. Mera is the pack punching bag and can’t wait to leave as soon as she can, but the pack isn’t ready to let her go. When she finally shifts and it is revealed that her mate is the pack leader's son Torin, despite all expectations, her life gets crazy real quick. Torin rejects her, she tries to escape and calls upon the power of their god Shadow Beast. Guess who shows up?!?!?! Right, so Shadow is unbelievably hot, but also seriously damaged and there is so much backstory we aren’t even given yet. Can we live in the library of knowledge? I have always had some difficulty with fated mates and this (new to us trope) really helps upend the idea of fate. We will be returning to this series and looking for more rejected mates books in the future.

123 - The Vow by Dannika Dark
Wednesday Nov 16, 2022
Wednesday Nov 16, 2022
In this book we follow as Melody tries to make a connection with a local tribal leader in Oklahoma, only to stumble across her friend’s older brother on an undercover investigation of recent deaths in the area. Lakota and Melody haven’t seen each other since they were kids but the sparks start flying immediately. We really enjoyed the tension of their situation, him undercover and her not supposed to know him. Lakota had some amazing qualities we have seen lacking in other shifter males; he was protective but respectful, he cared about her dreams and skills. The pie scene is absolutely worth bookmarking and coming back to again and again! Plus, who doesn’t love a story of falling for a friend’s older brother? We were not disappointed with this book and can’t wait to read more by Dannika Dark.

122 - Betwixt by Darynda Jones
Wednesday Nov 02, 2022
Wednesday Nov 02, 2022
We are excited to read another book by Darynda Jones after a much too long break. Betwixt gives us another story with a protagonist who has lost everything and is trying to rebuild her life. Defiance Dayne has inherited a mysterious house from an unknown lady who turns out to be her grandmother whose ghost is using a website for communication from beyond the grave. Defiance discovers her magic powers that have been hidden for 40 years and begins to find the person she thought was lost. Luckily a smoking hot handyman in a kilt lives in her new house and is around to give her a hand. Unfortunately, like in Midlife Bounty Hunter, our heroine doesn’t get the super sexy time we are hoping for but there is promise of some to come in the steamy, tense scenes between Defiance and Roan. We appreciate the way Darynda approached her ‘older’ (ha! she is only 44) main character. Unlike Brina in Midlife Bounty Hunter, Defiance does not harp on being too old or her body not working like it used to. Defiance is beaten down by what she sees as all her ‘failures’ especially her divorce, but as she starts to develop her powers and the people in her life continue to stand by her side she gains confidence and strength. We enjoyed this book and look forward to following Defiance and Roan as the series continues.
