I have never read a shapeshifter romance before. While I love fantasy, romantasy, and romance books, but have just never had the desire to pick one up. But I’ve heard great things about Lana Ferguson’s books so when Berkley sent me a copy, I decided to give it a whirl. From the first chapter, we…

The Gentleman’s Gambit
After not enjoying Portraits of a Scotsman too much (Hattie is the worst), I was leery going into the newest installment of The League of Extraordinary Women. Have no fear though because Catriona Campbell has saved us. We finally get to get inside Catriona Campbell’s head in The Gentleman’s Gambit. Catriona is spending the summer…
Portrait of a Scotsman
I adore this series. It’s educational, charming, spicy, and filled with independent women during a time when women were seen as property. I’ve loved all our couples (Lucie and Tristan, Annabell and Sebastian) and I have loved Hattie’s character since Bringing Down the Duke, so I was extra thrilled to finally get a love story…
Black Sheep
Another weird, page turning novel from Rachel Harrison. Her books, while usually labeled horror tend to be campier in nature than truly scary.

A Little Ray of Sunshine
Welp Kristan Higgins did it again, she made me cry, and I’m pretty upset by it. People told me this one would be lighter, so I read it on my flight up to New York last week. It’s a good thing I had a window seat and nobody next to be because I was bawling…
Love, Theoretically
I love a book, especially romances that focus on women in STEM. I’ve spent my entire career in the Technology arena, and I generally am the only female on my teams. I’ve been lucky to have always worked with a great group of engineers who treat me as an equal, but I know this isn’t…
