Queen B’s Decree: While the cute and adorable cover (I ♥️ u Samson) would lead you to believe this is a light-hearted romcom, it reads more like Women’s Fiction. Sydney and Austin are paired up for a song composition class and they clash immediately. Austin is popular, has survived through college with minimal effort, and […]
Queen B’s Decree: Long story short…Ronan and Justine have to get fake-married on a reality show to save Ronan’s TV network from going under. And Ronan does.not.like.it. And naturally Justine is a hopeless romantic—what could go wrong? Ronan was pretty frustrating. He kind of seemed like a terrible boss to Justine at times, while she […]
Queen B’s Decree: I like the “wounded, damaged FMC” trope we get in Glass Omega. It always means we get some gruff MMCs that dote on her. Adding a third to an already formed relationship doesn’t always work for me. It sometimes makes it feel like the third is literally a third wheel. But it […]
Queen B’s Decree: Tessa Hale knows how to wrap up a series while teasing you with the next. Dawn of Flames is nonstop—full of action, romance, and spice. Even though I was concerned that all would work out, somehow it all gets wrapped up. The relationships and bonds between Hayden and her mates continues to […]
Queen B’s Decree: Well this was delightful. Fated mates, transportation to a new world, grumpy/sunshine trope, and a dragon BFF—all things I love. Dravarr is a super grump that doesn’t initially appreciate his bride, but his self-flagellation made up for it for me. I like a man (or orc) who recognizes his mistakes and works […]
Queen B’s Decree: You may remember how enthralled I was with the first in the series, A Kingdom of Bitter Magic. A Court of Wicked Fae picks right up where that one ended and runs with it. We ended on a major cliffhanger in AKOBM but ACOWF (so many words to type!) really worked through […]
Queen B’s Decree: Adam Sass, I believe it’s time for me to read your backlog. This is my second from this author and I want more. Cursed Boys and Broken Hearts is a dreaded second chance romance trope, but I still couldn’t get enough. Grant is an 18 year old queer boy and he’s questioning […]
Queen B’s Decree: I wholeheartedly adore this book and its characters. Mark—the prickly reporter, just starting to get back to life after losing his partner; and Eddie—the newly-traded, golden retriever baseball player in a slump that Mark is reporting on. While You Should Be So Lucky is about Mark and Eddie’s gradual fall in love, […]
Queen B’s Decree: The Dead Romantics was a book club pick, and it’s one that I’ve kept my eye on since it released two years ago. But it didn’t take long for me to lose interest. The older I get, the less tolerance I have for the “FMC is a hot mess” trope. Florence is […]
Queen B’s Decree: Sword of the Seven Sins features a society ruled by a restrictive religion based on—you guessed it—the seven deadly sins. Relationships of any sort are forbidden; no friendships, no romance, no lust. When Eva is selected as the newest and only female Bellator (the compound’s military), she’s paired with Ari. But they’ve […]
