Yep, it's true - I was so shocked I didn't know what to do next.
To Beguile a Beast by Elizabeth Hoyt is $1.99! This is book three in the Legend of the Four Soldiers series. There is definitely a Beauty and the Beast element here. Have you read this series?
I had to step away from Karin Slaughter as an author a few years ago because the discussions around sexual assault in her books were too graphic for me. When I saw she had a brand new series coming out, I decided to risk it and I’m glad I did. We Are All Guilty Here is the first book in a new series set in North Falls, GA so readers can go into this one … Continue reading We Are All Guilty Here by Karin Slaughter
Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Melodie: I can appreciate not all cover models being waxed, but I’m not sure this is the alternative. What is going on? Flocking gun accident? His girlfriend practicing her eyelash extension technique on his chest? The grown result of all those half werewolf/half human babies that the urban fantasy genre finds in their epilogues? Sarah: I think I could sand down splinters with his pecs. Amanda: I’m giggling at … Continue reading Cover Snark: Covered in Eyelashes

Happy Saturday! We’re speedily approaching the end of August. Here’s how we’re capping off the month: Lara: I’ve torn myself away from Nalini Singh’s Guild Hunter series to try new-to-me authors. I’m reviewing Cynthia St. Aubin’s Love Bites and Love Sucks. I enjoyed both (ridiculous) books with some caveats. At the moment I am reading Love at First Fright by Nadia El-Fassi. I usually don’t enjoy books with twee cosy witches. I like my paranormals … Continue reading Whatcha Reading? August 2025, Part Two

RECOMMENDED: Don’t Want You Like a Best Friend by Emma R. Alban is $1.99 and a Kindle Daily Deal! Carrie read this and gave it an A:
Every time I think of this book, I smile. Dear readers, I regret that I have forgotten so many of the finer points of the book. However, I can promise you that it will leave you smiling.
It’s July 2016, and we’re back in the time machine to check out the ads & features from this issue of Romantic Times Magazine! We spot an SBTB friend in the letters to the editor, and we talk about romances translated into English, the appeal of the wounded hero, and we spot an ad that’s very clearly some Tay-fic, as I’m calling it. We also discuss an article about Kickstarter in romance – and this … Continue reading 681. RT Rewind: July 2016 Ads & Features
RECOMMENDED: A Duke by Default by Alyssa Cole is $1.99! We read this for my book club and we all agreed there wasn’t enough blacksmithing and sword-making. Carrie enjoyed this one and gave it an A-:
This is such a solid book – it’s tear-jerking, it’s inspiring, it’s sexy and romantic, it’s interesting (sword history!) and it’s funny. I can’t wait for the next book in the series.
