Contemporary Romance
I had the huge honor of beta reading Faker by Sarah Smith, and I can tell you right now… it was utterly delightful even in its infancy. But the final, polished, published version? 😍 Guys, gals, and NBs… It. Is. To. Die. For. No, but seriously. Smith’s voice is gripping and witty and takes you on a romantic journey of enemies to lovers that’ll leave your heart melting into a simmering puddle of starry-eyed goop.

Erotic Paranormal LGBTQ+ Romance
Hot mama, y’all… this week’s read was utterly phenomenal. It also left me with some major grabby hands because Temper: Deference by Lila Mina is book one in a trilogy… and it ends with a gotta-know-more cliffhanger. 😱💕

Historical Romance
Felicia Grossman is the singular reason I, as a non-historical romance junkie, have developed a new appreciation for a genre I had all but written off.

So, needless to say, I was champing at the bit for the next in The Pruitts series from Carina Press—Dalliances & Devotion. And just as her first book left me swooning and in love, so did this one.

Paranormal Romance
Tides of Time by Luna Joya—released by City Owl Press—was one of those reads that kept my hands locked around my e-reader and my butt firmly planted in my chair. This book promises witchy mystery and romance, and it doesn’t disappoint.

New Adult Gay (M/M) Romance
I had the pleasure this week of reading the delightful Cut to the Feeling series by Noah Steele. He offered me books one and two plus a companion novella several months ago as a sort of “package deal.” It was so much fun to start with Aiden and Derrek in Racing Into Love, then follow Oliver into his own love story with Seth in Fighting for Love, while rounding out the experience with the tasty treat of Beckett and Alex’s darling first time romance in Act of Love.
