REVIEW: The Warlord’s Wife by Sandra Lake

KatiB ReviewsFinland / Historical / Sweden / Viking10 Comments

Dear Ms. Lake: As a deep lover of Elizabeth Vaughan’s Warlords of the Plains series, I’m always on the lookout for stories that feature a fish out of water heroine trying to make her way. I read the blurb for The Warlord’s Wife and immediately requested it because it seemed just ... more >

REVIEW: The Club by Lauren Rowe

JaneB- ReviewsContemporary / Erotic-Romance5 Comments

Dear Ms. Rowe: I’m adverse to books about sex clubs. They’ve been done so many times that I feel certain I’ve read every iteration of them at least once if not twice, but the blurb to this book caught my eye and as the book began to climb the Amazon charts ... more >

REVIEW: The Fighter and the Fallen Woman by Pamela Cayne

JaneB- ReviewsAthlete / courtesan / Fighter / Historical3 Comments

Dear Ms. Cayne: The blurb says that King and Lady have the choice of staying spoiled and safe or breaking free but I felt like that wasn’t the real conflict.

REVIEW: A Fireproof Home for the Bride by Amy Scheibe

JayneB Reviews1950s / coming-of-age / immigration / New Adult / racism / reporter / Womens-Fiction2 Comments

Emmaline Nelson and her sister Birdie grow up in the hard, cold rural Lutheran world of strict parents, strict milking times, and strict morals. Marriage is preordained, the groom practically predestined. Though it’s 1958, southern Minnesota did not see changing roles for women on the horizon. Caught in a time ... more >
