Perfectly You by Claudia Burgoa
Queen B’s Decree: Perfectly You and I did not jive together. It contained one of my least favorite tropes (OF ALL TIME) and I just couldn’t get past that. Fisher is fun and I enjoyed his banter with Nathalie. It was obvious that they were both ignoring their attraction so their “enemies-to-lovers” was all in […]
Always Meant to Be by Siobhan Davis
Queen B’s Decree: This review will be short and sweet so I’m not tempted to reveal any spoilers. Always Meant to Be is best read by going in blind. Kendall and Zander have such chemistry. Their journey is a mix of the forbidden and taboo, adoration and love, temptation and passion. Always Meant to Be […]
Delilah Green Doesn’t Care by Ashley Herring Blake
Queen B’s Decree: I wasn’t sure I was going to finish this book initially. Delilah was a very unlikable character to begin with. In the first chapter, she was essentially a female version of an alphahole, constantly forgetting the name of their current bed partner. It was this weird, forced into your face feeling of […]
Always Waiting by Calliope Stewart
Queen B’s Decree: I’m still deep in the world of the sweet Omegaverse trope and I don’t see that ending for me anytime soon. Always Waiting is the story of Eloise. She’s been living at what is essentially an Omega boarding school since she was a child and is their oldest resident. She’s refusing to […]
Say It Like You Mane It by Erin Nicholas
Queen B’s Decree: I’ve been anxiously awaiting Zander’s story for a while, but I don’t think I quite understood how serious he really was. Caroline rolls into town wearing a designer wedding dress and carrying an illegally obtained lion cub. But instead of being the pampered, runaway heiress she appears to be, she’s actually collecting […]
Ramón and Julieta by Alana Albertson
Queen B’s Decree: Ramón and Julieta is (surprise!) a play on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, with a Chicano twist. Ramón’s father is this fast-food restaurant conglomerate that grew after bringing the Mexican fish taco to the masses, and Ramón has spent his life making deals and working for Taco King. He lets loose one night […]
Tell Me This Is Forever by J.S. Scott
Queen B’s Decree: I think this might be one of the first J.S. Scott stories where I really wanted to shake the Heroine. Macy and Leo meet when her best friend marries his older brother. When Leo graciously takes her on an emergent (rich billionaires all have private planes, didn’t you know?) flight home, they […]
The Commander by Melanie Moreland
Queen B’s Decree: Julian (aka The Commander) is the man behind the scenes at Hidden Justice and he’s looking to hire a new part-time secretary for his cushy, “make this look legal” office. He’s expecting older, near retirement-age women until Taliyah crashes into his life last-minute. Sparks fly and Julian is immediately smitten, unable to […]
Until Next Time by Claudia Burgoa
Queen B’s Decree: Oohhhh man, I was definitely concerned towards the beginning of Until Next Time. I believe I’ve told you in the past, but I watched Sleepless in Seattle for the first time last year and was heartily disturbed by it. And I like stalker books! Until Next Time started off with some Sleepless […]
