Review: Lyon's Price

Lyon's Price Lyon's Price by Mina Carter
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Just full blown erotica disguised as sci-fi romance. Not bad but not good either. Average at best. Readable but lacks excitement. Also rushed.

Review: The Barrier Between

The Barrier Between The Barrier Between by Stacey Marie Brown
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am not happy with the ending of this book. First of all, Amara's betrayal was a given. I don't know how they didn't see it coming because it was obvious as all hell. Secondly, I expected better from Zoey. The way she was captured at the end was really just the last drop of a long fall. I expect her to get better any time now but she just seems to reverse her progress every few pages. It's annoying. Thirdly, the lab? Strapped? Again?? I still want to read more but it's getting repetitive. Zoey gets caught. Ryker saves her. Zoey gets caught. Ryker saves her. Zoey gets caught...you get my drift. Worst of it all is that Zoey is actually more than human now and, despite years of training against fae and having more stamina and better healing abilities, she still gets her ass kicked all the time. Despite all of this though, this story is still incredibly compelling and I had a hard time putting it down. I hope the next book comes quickly. 3.5 ★

Review: Better With Sugar


Better With Sugar
Better With Sugar by Katrina Kirkpatrick

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Great work but I honestly expected better. I liked the main couple well enough but never really connected with them and never really felt their attraction/love for each other. I was hoping for a more heartfelt love story and it kinda disappointed.

Review: Tiger Mine


Tiger Mine
Tiger Mine by Angela Castle

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



The background was different and compelling but the story was typical and predictable erotic shifter romance. Cute but nothing special about it.

Review: Fallen


Fallen
Fallen by Violette Dubrinsky

My rating: 0 of 5 stars



Not much but I liked the mythology. Thanatos was quite awesome and Simone, while incredibly naive, was entertaining enough to provide me with some laughs. I enjoyed it.

Review: Panahasi


Panahasi
Panahasi by Lynn Hagen

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Not bad but not that great either. Better perhaps if I'd read the other novels but I didn't so the references went right over my head, the background meant nothing to me and the characters were all jumbled together apart from the three MCs. I did like Panahasi a lot though and it ended up compensating a bit. His mates were...maybe not undeserving but...unsuited maybe? I didn't connect with either of them the same way I did with Panahasi. He alone made this book worth finishing for me. Weird but accurate. Overall I think this book is reserved solely for those already engaged in this series.

Review: Take it Like a Vamp


Take it Like a Vamp
Take it Like a Vamp by Candace Havens

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Oh my God. The puns were so bad but so entertaining. And I liked Casey a lot. I didn't much care for vampire Nick but best friend Nick was fun too. Overall, it's not a great novel but it had all the right ingredients to give me a good time.

Review: Koishi


Koishi
Koishi by Annie Nicholas

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Mostly erotica but I quite enjoyed the romance. The "plot", if it can be called that, was ridiculous of course but entertaining and I had a good time. I had fun.

Review: A Scent of Greek


A Scent of Greek
A Scent of Greek by Tina Folsom

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



The ending was not terrible but, overall, the whole book was incredibly ludicrous. Worse than the first.
