HaBO: Paranormal Romance Trilogy

by Amanda · Apr 23, 2024 at 10:00 am · View all 4 comments

This HaBO comes from Alexis, who wants to find this trio of romances: I read this series of books when I worked at a public library somewhere between 2010 and 2015. There were three different books, each about a different friend in a group of three. The first has a one night stand with what turns out to be a vampire, and they become a happy couple. The second does the same with a werewolf. … Continue reading HaBO: Paranormal Romance Trilogy →

The Rec League - heart shaped chocolate resting on the edge of a very old book

This Rec League is from Elizabeth. Thanks so much! After reading this one and The Worst Guy (also reviewed on the site, also hilarious!), I discovered I have a thing for romance novels about villains, or at least jerks who find happiness with other jerks. I wonder if there is a whole genre of those. Amanda: We have a Villains Redeemed Rec League, but I definitely want to focus on the jerks 4 jerks part … Continue reading The Rec League: Jerks in Love →

Welcome back, everyone! I am still in South Korea and tomorrow I will celebrate my thirty-fifth birthday! Wowza!

Oh captain, my captain! Also, we’re in mid-April now! How did that happen? The spring always feels like it flies by. Maybe … Continue reading Links: Higher Ed, Little Golden Books, & More →

This HaBO is from Raina, who wants to find this older historical romance: Looking for a really old romance novel. Probably 20-30 years or so. It was a historical with the hero taking over the heroine’s castle by force. I believe the hero’s name was Royce and the heroine was Bethany, but don’t quote me on that. One was a Saxon and the other a Norman? The heroine tried to save all of her people … Continue reading HaBO: Bethany & Royce K-I-S-S-I-N-G →

Hey ho! Let’s go! Though I scheduled this post a couple weeks ago, I’m an officially in South Korea by the time you’re reading this. I’m sure I’m having a great time. We plan to do an overnight stay at a Buddhist temple and I’m most definitely going to load up on Korean beauty and skincare products. There’s also a chance some areas will still have cherry blossoms. Karaoke and ungodly amounts of Korean BBQ … Continue reading Links: Anne Hathaway, Rat Music, & More →
