REVIEW: Jilted by Vi Keeland
Sandy M’s review of Jilted by Vi Keeland
Contemporary Romance published by Bramble 6 May 25
I’ve read just a few Vi Keeland books, and I’ve enjoyed each one quite a bit. This story is no exception. And I really, really like Wilder Hayes. The he-falls-first trope is moving its way up my favorites list. And Wilder doesn’t let up one bit, once he knows this jilted bride is the one for him.

REVIEW: An Ember in the Ashes Series by Sabaa Tahir
Kaitlyn‘s review of An Ember in the Ashes Series by Sabaa Tahir
Young Adult Fantasy published by G.P. Putnam’s Sons Books for Young Readers Apr 2015 – Dec 2020
An Ember in the Ashes is a pretty great series. It has all the elements of an awesome young adult fantasy story. And I’m fully recommending it, even though there were TWO love triangles in the beginning. 😂
REVIEW: Just Beachy by Wendy Wax
Sandy M’s review of Just Beachy by Wendy Wax
Contemporary Romance published by Berkley 3 Jun 25
I’ve enjoyed a number of Wendy Wax books over the years, including some her 10 Beach Road series, of which this story plays a small part, eventually bringing in a few previous characters. It’s a fun read, but there are other issues that just kept me from really liking this book like I have so many others of the author.

Paranormal Romance published by Berkley 03 Jun 25
Leona and Oliver meet under interesting circumstances. She’s a guest brought to authenticate an alien artifact; he might have been the one to supply the artifact.

Of course, there’s more to come, since this is just the beginning.

REVIEW: My Loving Husband by Sheryl Browne
Sandy M’s review of My Loving Husband by Sheryl Browne
Psychological Thriller published by Bookoutour 7 Apr 25
I’ve been into psychological thrillers over the last couple of years, all thanks to Darby Kane, who’s been a favorite of mine for years under her HelenKay Dimon pseudonym. Her new foray into this genre has been the perfect direction for her. So when I saw this book by Ms. Browne (my first by her), I thought maybe I should expand my own horizons. But I’m not sure she’s the right choice for me.
