Queen B’s Decree: Tessa Hale books are like crack to me. I have no chill, I just read them literally the minute I get them. Anchor of Secrets was no different. It’s 0-60 immediately, full of action. Leighton’s learning more about this paranormal world and the hits keep coming. Her relationship with each of her mates […]
Queen B’s Decree: Charming The Devil had all of my favorite things. Sarah continues to amaze me with her growth as a writer. The depth of emotions I felt while reading Charming The Devil were unexpected. I got so attached to the characters, that I felt my own heart breaking at times. Lilith is a […]
Queen B’s Decree: Juneau was a bit of a slow start for me. It just had a lot of tropes and plot devices, I was worried it was going to be too much for me. It was…a lot. But the characters grew on me and eventually, I was fully invested. I was surprised by the […]
Queen B’s Decree: I don’t know what it is about Tessa Hale’s stories, but they are like crack to me. I get so invested and sucked in. Legacy of Shadows has a few of my favorite tropes: reverse harem, fated mates, paranormal chosen one vibes. Fated mates and I adore the heroine? Win win! Leighton […]
Queen B’s Decree: The Dalwick Demon was originally featured in a Monsters in Love Anthology and was restructured as a novella, but it still is a relatively quick and short read. It suffers a bit, like all novellas do, from the minimal character and relationship development. But for a short story? It’s fun and spicy. […]
Queen B’s Decree: Willow Hadley has some kind of magic; I’m obsessed with her YA books. 100%, totally obsessed. Shadows and Curses was no different. I was enthralled with Harriett and her boys and I couldn’t put it down. All the characters felt like they had individualized voices and I loved getting everyone’s point-of-view. There […]
Queen B’s Decree: The Queen of Quintessence was such a great end to the trilogy. A good mix of suspenseful plot, intense relationship progression, and a bit of magic. Aura and her mates go through the wringer and it feels like they can’t catch a break. They’re getting attacked on both sides and just struggling […]
Queen B’s Decree: Haverhill Burning was a fun and light read. It starts out fast with some immediate action and a bit of a murdery meet-cute. Renny is attacked while on a run and our cinnamon roll hero, Pogue, comes to assist her. They’ve both been sending each other looks at the local gym…but what […]
Queen B’s Decree: Another read from Tessa Hale that I devoured. The Last Aether continues right after the cliffhanger ending from The Lost Elemental. Aura continues to deepen the bonds she has with her elemental boys, even the standoffish Riven (my broken boy!). The suspense and action keeps coming, and the mysteries keep growing. I […]
Queen B’s Decree: We first met Reece in Muscles & Monsters, and he was a character you just didn’t like; prejudiced against the monsters integrating, condescending to his sister. So I was fully prepared to dislike him the entire book, despite him being the hero. At the beginning of the story…you do still dislike him. […]
