REVIEW: Shadow’s Claim by Kresley Cole

Dear Ms. Cole: When I first read the review thoughts of Mandi from SmexyBooks on this book and she sounded, well, bored by a book that she described as a classic Cole, I thought to myself that it was impossible for a book to be a signature Cole and be boring. But after reading the(…)

REVIEW: Pleasure of A Dark Prince by Kresley Cole

REVIEW: Pleasure of A Dark Prince by Kresley Cole

Dear Ms. Cole: It is no secret that I am a big fan of your Immortals After Dark series, and I have certainly made no secret of the fact that the Lykae "fated mate" books are not among my favorites. In Pleasure of A Dark Prince, I really enjoyed the way Lucia and Garreth had(…)

REVIEW: Kiss of A Demon King by Kresley Cole

REVIEW: Kiss of A Demon King by Kresley Cole

Dear Ms. Cole: One of my favorite things about the Immortals After Dark series is that all the books are different.   Sure, there are some unifying themes – justice v. retribution, finding one’s place in the world and in love, independence v. autonomy, just to name a few – but the stories and the couples(…)

REVIEW: Dark Needs at Night’s Edge by Kresley Cole

REVIEW: If You Desire by Kresley Cole

So here's the thing about Kresley Cole's books: they completely blow my nice, logical grading curve, and the most recent re-issue of the second MacCarrick brothers historical, If You Desire, is no exception. Use whatever tired metaphor you want –" this is where the rubber meets the road, caught between the devil and the deep(…)

REVIEW:  If You Dare by Kresley Cole

REVIEW: If You Dare by Kresley Cole

Dear Ms. Cole: When this book first came out, I was really attracted to the cover. It’s very sexy. [note to self. Must remember to tell Maili about this cover]. Yet, I recall telling someone that I was interested in buying it and the response wasn’t positive so I didn’t. Now, after having read and(…)
