Queen B’s Decree: If We Were a Movie was a pretty cute read. Rochelle is a very dedicated student, who wants a summer job to make her college applications look better and gets a surprise job at the local black-owned movie theater. And let me tell you, this girl doesn’t even watch movies! But surprise, […]
Queen B’s Decree: Okay, I definitely need to go back and finish the Lethal Vows series. I was hooked on Vengeful Lies. Vengeful Lies was my kind of premise: Jewel is a hit woman, hired to kill mafia boss-heir, Eli. But this is not a straightforward job, she’s to toy with him first. Definitely some […]
Queen B’s Decree: Jasmine Mas definitely has a style and I 100% dig it. I was obsessed with Blood of Hercules. The story is told primarily through the point-of-view of Alexis, our ‘surprise you’re not a human’ FMC who is thrust into this crazy world of Olympians. She’s the only woman who is currently attending […]
Queen B’s Decree: I lived for the banter in Beg, Borrow, or Steal. Emily and Jack have been rivals for YEARS and it’s like they don’t know how to live without each other, even if all they do is bicker. As an eldest sibling, Emily was a little too relatable at times. When you’ve been […]
Queen B’s Decree: I honestly couldn’t put this one down. Enemies-to-lovers where they both actually hate each other, but damn, the chemistry can’t be denied? Yes, sir, I’ll take some more. I loved the back and forth between Callum and Aida. Their hate for each other led to some dangerous (and somehow hilarious) antics but […]
Queen B’s Decree: This one had the best tropes: city girl x cowboy, enemies-to-lovers, he falls first. Mollie was a hard character to like at first. She was such a spoiled rich girl. But…grief and regret are immersive emotions, I understand how she struggled with her distant relationship with her late dad. And she showed […]
Queen B’s Decree: I love an enemies-to-lovers trope, and Gus really delivered on the “asshole MMC that becomes a softy.” Teddy/Theodora is the “fixer;” she takes care of everyone, chips in and helps, but who is there to take care of her? And Gus is the same, never wanting to ask for help. It really […]
Queen B’s Decree: If you ever wondered how the son of Santa finds his own Mrs. Claus, look no further than Elfemies to Lovers. The enemies-to-lovers trope is pretty mild—the man buys the last of her favorite muffin and that’s all the “hate” there is—but there is a lot of cutesy-ness. Filled with holiday puns, […]
Queen B’s Decree: I never thought I’d be smiling so much during a creepy monster story, but Dating and Dismemberment was delightful. Darla is the Duchess of Death and haunts the camp near her forest, when she develops some ennui, feeling bored with hunting humans. After a sabbatical, a new monster is in town to […]
Queen B’s Decree: I have to admit, I didn’t adore this one as much as I did its predecessor Don’t Want You Like a Best Friend. So much of the story was basically a long miscommunication that could have easily been prevented had any of the characters just talked?? But of course, it’s Victorian England—we […]
