Queen B’s Decree: The first book, The Flame King’s Captive, was a slow burn story, focusing on growing the emotional connection of Zabriel and Isavelle. This book…is the opposite of slow burn. Insert bow chicka bow wow music. While the primary plot and storyline is still progressing, so much of The Flame King’s Bride was […]
Queen B’s Decree: Sometimes I want a sweet and fluffy paranormal novella. And Lucky Cupid scratches that itch. Juliet is a newly-made cupid and just doesn’t seem to fit in. She’s not making matches, her bow and arrow skills are middling, and how can she create a love match if she hasn’t felt it herself? […]
Queen B’s Decree: Bewitched was a book club selection, and the blurb definitely hooked me. Bewitched has an interesting premise: Selene is a young witch who constantly loses her memories due to her magic use and she inadvertently awakens a long-asleep warlock…who thinks she is his soulmate from long ago. It’s definitely a bit of […]
Queen B’s Decree: As the great T. Swift says “There is nothing I do better than revenge.” Petty Cupid is a great mix of schadenfreude and romance/sex/connection. So you get a little bit of everything! Love is a cupid who recently dumped by her boss, and even though she isn’t heartsick…she is humiliated and wants […]
Queen B’s Decree: Time travel may not be my favorite trope, but it always makes for an interesting story. Eleanor is a newly-emerged omega that travels through time and ends up on a ranch in the future…around 4 alphas. But everyone is more than their instincts, thankfully, so their relationship progresses slowly—at a more realistic […]
Queen B’s Decree: I think I’ve mentioned before how the few Ali Hazelwood books I’ve read are suspiciously similar, so I was interested in seeing how she went outside her box with a paranormal romance featuring an arranged marriage between a werewolf and a vampyre. In short, it worked for me. Bride had the humor […]
Queen B’s Decree: I read Wolfsong years ago (and loved it, as a matter of fact) so once I saw the re-release of Heartsong on Netgalley I decided it was time to attempt to finish the series. Ravensong was a second-chance trope that was angsty and heartbreakingly painful, so I was excited for Heartsong and […]
Queen B’s Decree: How does Tessa Hale do it? Gather all my attention and keep me so enthralled I read in a single sitting? It’s magic. Twilight of Embers has all the things I love in a Tessa Hale book. There was action and suspense, ends on a cliffhanger (as expected), and I was entranced. […]
Queen B’s Decree: Wolf shifter health professionals? Is the author literally looking inside my head for my dream book?!? I listened to The Fake Mate as an audiobook and I highly recommend it. The narrators were both outstanding and gave such life to the characters. There was so much about The Fake Mate that I […]
Queen B’s Decree: Yes, I know, this is a conscious choice I made. Our Utahraptor is sentient here (unlike the Triceratops book I read earlier this year) and went to high school with human, Holly. Her long term relationship is not going well, and she runs back into 12 FOOT TALL Rocky when she visits […]
