Madame X by Jasinda Wilder

Madame X

Madame X isn’t going to be for everyone. There are quite a number of things it has that I know will be automatic turn-offs for people. It’s written in first person. It does end on a cliffhanger. It deals with abuse (trigger warning) – physically, financially, and psychologically. There’s no HEA in this book as it’s an ongoing series following the same heroine. And there are also themes of infidelity. But, if you’re still with … Continue reading Madame X by Jasinda Wilder

Stripped by Jasinda Wilder

Stripped by Jasinda Wilder

I bought Stripped by Jasinda Wilder because the blurb on the cover said “He’s a movie star sex god. She’s a virgin…and a stripper.” Sign me up for that shit, right? Virgin stripper plus movie star sex god? How could I resist? Sadly, due to some clunky pacing and some strange character behavoir, Stripped just didn’t work for me. So how does one get to be a virgin stripper, you ask? Grey is the daughter … Continue reading Stripped by Jasinda Wilder

Now it's .99c, likely because the parallel sequel, Falling Into Us has been released at $4.99 (it takes place alongside Falling Into You and features different characters from the same circle). So many of the reviews say, “Prepare to Ugly Cry” – so expect angst and emotion. Given the genuinely excited fan reactions to Jasinda Wilder and Falling Into You that I saw at … Continue reading Books on Sale: New Adult & Contemporary Romances Plus Urban Fantasy

 Falling Into You is $1.99 until 12 May 2013.   I sat next to Jasinda Wilder at RT's book signing and watched as readers came up to her and positively shimmied with excitement at meeting her.

HEA ending.”   I wasn't always in love with … Continue reading Books on Sale: New Adult, Paranormal Historical, and Something Different
