Queen B’s Decree: I love a reverse age gap and Lady Boss did wonderful at it. Our heroine, Penelope, is 12 years older than Kai and used to be his babysitter when she was in high school. He’s now graduated college and worked as her intern—so there’s extra taboo. Boss/employee and age gap. Give all […]
Queen B’s Decree: One thing that has been great about 2022 so far is the emergence of more main stream sapphic and diverse romance. The Romance Recipe features headstrong and micromanaging restaurant owner Amy and her grumpy chef, Sophie. Usually, I am all about a bossy and headstrong heroine. But Amy was too controlling and […]
Queen B’s Decree: Dating the Duke was a light-hearted read. It didn’t have the same over-the-top ridiculous antics that some of Emma Hart’s stories can have, but it was still funny and sweet. I do have some complaints. I thought the pacing was a little slow; the story seemed to drag on for the first […]
Queen B’s Decree: Talia Hibbert has been on both my and Queen J’s “to-read” list for a while. When I got notification that I would be receiving a copy of Act Your Age, Eve Brown, I mildly panicked. I hadn’t read the previous in the series, Get a Life, Chloe Brown nor Take a Hint, […]
Queen B’s Decree: My Saving Grace took the boss/employee and secret/taboo relationship and turned up the angst. We met Grace and Jaxson in A Merry Vested Wedding so I knew going into their story that a breakup was coming. Before that terrible time, the romance between the two was so sweet and adorable. Grace is […]
Queen B’s Decree: Turns out this is not a duet, it has instead been extended into a trilogy. Should have realized when I got to 80ish % and so much was still unresolved. The lust/love story between Winston and Ash continues. Winston is still clinging to this as a business transaction while Ash keeps forcing […]
Queen B’s Decree: We have been waiting for Piper and Ollie’s story since they were first introduced. It has been so obvious (to everyone but Ollie) that they were meant to be together. Piper has been Ollie’s (and the rest of the Fluke men) assistant for a few years and has been dealing with her […]
Queen B’s Decree: I hadn’t been looking forward to Semi-Sweet as much as the others in the series. And that’s because it’s of the dreaded “second chance” trope. I should have never doubted Erin Nicholas because Semi-Sweet was so much more than a generic “second chance” romance. Whitney and Cam fell in love while they […]
Queen B’s Decree: Maxx was such a grump. Y’all know I can’t resist that. Maxx is looking for an assitant/office manager/cook and places an ad online for a “Girl Friday.” When he receives an application from what he believes is a young man named “Charly,” he offers him the job. Charly is actually short for […]
Queen B’s Decree: Surprisingly enough, I loved Henry. I didn’t care for him as a side character in the first book, Loved You Once. He was cold and unfeeling. This emotionless robot. At the beginning of A Moment Like You, that’s still who he is. But the longer he’s in Baker’s Creek and spending time […]
