Queen B’s Decree: It’s no secret that I love hockey, therefore Made For Us felt like it was made for me (you see what I did there…). It’s the third novel in a series, and as I hadn’t read the first two, I did feel like I had been thrown into the deep end of […]
Queen B’s Decree: I’ve always enjoyed Sarina Bowen’s foray into M/M relationships and The New Guy was no different. I was immediately drawn to Gavin.

Queen B’s Decree: So you’ve probably gathered by now that I’ve forced Sarah Blue to be my friend. We were chatting about One Pucked Up Pack and she told me her alpha/beta readers were crying while reading. I scoffed on the inside; I don’t cry nearly ever when reading romance. Dear Reader…I should have taken […]
Queen B’s Decree: On Thin Ice had a bunch of tropes that you might think are a bit much. But it all works together well. While I categorized this as a hockey book, I would say that the focus is on the relationship building, and that the sports aspect is minimal. And frankly, the relationship […]

Drake and Charli have a drunken and fun night celebrating in Vegas and wake up married. But that’s fine, they can just get un-married, right? Drake and Charli were obviously meant to be together, even if Charli […]
Queen B’s Decree: Boyfriend was a fun and easy read that made your heart smile.
