Queen B’s Decree: Queen J and I recently took a field trip. It turns out we live only mere hours away from half of the writing duo Alexa Riley. And since I stalk her facebook I definitely noticed the event she co-hosted with a local artist (who was totally awesome, by the way). So here’s […]
Queen B’s Decree: Oh Alexa Riley. I had been disappointed with her (technically their) last few releases. I had wondered…have I grown out of this phase? Am I done with instalove novellas with multiple epilogues and happily ever afters? Then Keeping Her Warm came out. And faith was restored. It was wonderful! Exactly what I […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’m gonna be the dissenting opinion here. I know this is a universally enjoyed book. Emma Chase wowed me with her Royally Series. But Drew. He was one of the biggest assholes I’ve read about in recent memory. I couldn’t finish. I hated him. Dear Drew, You were a prick and ruined […]
Queen B’s Decree: Not too long ago I had a four day weekend with very few obligations scheduled. So I made the most of my time and reread the entire Billionaire Boys Club Series by Jessica Clare. A quick synopsis: a bunch of billionaires are best friends in this “secret society” and one by one […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’ve got a life lesson for you: don’t start a Mariana Zapata book before bed if you work the next morning. Unless you have coffee! Then it’s survivable so go ahead and read on. You may know by now that I love Mariana Zapata and everything she writes. But I’m afraid of […]
Queen B’s Decree: One of my most recent accomplishments was finishing this book. At the time I bought the book, it included 2000+ pages of pure smut. It includes the title book (an erotic novella loosely based on Cinderella) and about a million other stories. (SIDE NOTE: As of today, the page count has decreased…so […]
Queen B’s Decree: Our Heroine is a middle-aged mom and her Hero is her college-aged son’s friend. I have no problem with massive age gaps (looking at you Diana Palmer!) so this didn’t bother me. What bothered me was how boring it was. Plus Heroine’s best friend was over the top. I just couldn’t imagine anyone […]
Queen B’s Decree: Have I ever mentioned my love of obsessive heroes? In case you don’t know me, I have a deep love for obsessive, stalker-ish behavior. In books. Not real life. I don’t want my real life to be Forensic Files material. But in books? Love it. And Gray fits the bill. *SWOON* Book: Notice […]
Queen B’s Decree: So. You’d think I’d love this one. Prisoner of war? Angst? Childhood sweethearts? No. It was too cliched. I just couldn’t finish. Of course she marries some other childhood friend. And of course he’s abusive. Oh surprise! He’s a cop! :/ Book: Tortured by Nicole Williams Series: standalone Genre: Contemporary Hotness: mild salsa? […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’m a little late to this one (like three years late!). Normally, musicians aren’t my favorite sort of characters. But Taryn and Trace are different – a country music singer and a rap artist. I couldn’t resist the dichotomy. Well. It worked. Loved the chemistry between Taryn and Trace. Their difficulties felt […]
