REVIEW: Northern Twilight by Samantha Young
Sandy M’s review of Northern Twilight (Highlands, Book 5) by Samantha Young
Contemporary Romance published by Amazon Digital Services 8 Aug 24
We’re nearly to the end of The Highlands series, which is a sad day coming, but with these last two books, we get to see how the second generation is living life and falling in love. Though we met both Lewis and Callie in the Adair series, they have come together here in another emotional and heartfelt story from one of my favorite authors.

Veena’s review of Book of the Month by Jennifer Probst
Contemporary Romance published by Blue Box Press 22 Oct 24
What an interesting theme for a love story. Aspen Lourde wrote a book about her heartbreak and became an insta success. Despite writing a couple of excellent books subsequently, success eludes her. Could it be that she needs another heartbreak in her personal life to write her next bestseller? Who better to break her heart than the local bad boy, who’s broken all the local women’s hearts in the little town where she’s spending her summer.

REVIEW: The Fullness of Time by Jeff High
Sandy M’s review of The Fullness of Time (Watervalley, Tennessee, Book 4) by Jeff High
Contemporary Fiction published by Jeff High 26 Mar 19
I read the first book in this series back when it released in 2013. I finished the next two books, and then waited to get my hands on this fourth one. Somehow, though, once I had it ready to go, I apparently got sidetracked for quite a while. I’m just now getting to it a number of years later. It’s okay, however, because I got what I needed from this series and its characters just when I was supposed to.
REVIEW: Fire in the Sky by Sophie Jordan
Kaitlyn‘s review of Fire in the Sky by Sophie Jordan
Fantasy Romance published by Avon 24 Sep 24
This isn’t perfect, but it is very unputdownable. A romantasy that very much focuses on the romance, not so much the fantasy. But I’ll always love an enemies-to-lovers arranged marriage, so I can’t complain.

Heading her own security business, giving others like her who wish to go legitimate a chance, she’s unaware of the dangerous currents that surround her.

REVIEW: Every Day of My Life by Lynn Kurland
Sandy M’s review of Every Day of My Life by Lynn Kurland
Time Travel Romance published by Kurland Book Productions 20 Sep 24
It’s been a while since I’ve read Lynn Kurland. I’ve been telling myself I want to get back into time travel, one of my favorite subgenres of romance. The last one I tried didn’t work for me, so when I saw Ms. Kurland published this book last month, I jumped at the chance to get lost in a really great read. And that’s definitely what it is. Her writing is a good as ever, and despite a few hiccups, I thoroughly enjoyed this story.
REVIEW: Deeper than the Dead by Debra Webb
Veena’s review of Deeper Than the Dead (Vera Boyett, Book 1) by Debra Webb
Romantic Suspense published by Thomas and Mercer 01 Aug 24
The story starts out slow, but then it picks up the pace and it seems like you’re running to catch up to all the little clues and twists and turns. Unfortunately, it becomes a bit convoluted before the grand finale.
REVIEW: Night of the Witch by Sara Raasch & Beth Reavis
Kaitlyn‘s review of Night of the Witch, (Witch & Hunter, Book 1) by Sara Raasch & Beth Reavis
Paranormal Romance published by Sourcebooks Fire 3 Oct 23
This story weaves the German witch hunts in the 1500s and the Roman empire’s influence over Europe with fantastical elements. It is such a cool concept, and I thoroughly enjoyed the plot and setting. It’s Serpent and Dove vibes, but German instead of French.
REVIEW: A Stone in Time by Kim Allred
Sandy M’s review of A Stone in Time (Mordha Stone Chronicles, Book 1) by Kim Allred
Time Travel Romance published by Storm Coast Publisher 2 May 18
I’d been thinking for some time about getting back to time travel romance, one my early genre loves. It’s been a while, since I got sidetracked with new romantic suspense authors over the last several years. So when this series popped up on my radar, I thought it might be a great place to start again.
