This is more a list of what I read last week because I don’t know what I am going to read this week. Last week I read: Never a Mistress, No Longer a Maid by Maureen Driscoll. This was sent to me by the author. The pitch was really good. The book not so much. [...]

Oh dear. Yes, that’s what I said when I finished reading this book. During the various stories I also said the following: WTF!?, Shut UP!, No way…, and Huh? Three to Tango is a collection of four novellas all featuring m/f/m ménages and the tag-line on the cover says “sex is best when it’s one-on-one [...]

Dear Ms. Holly: The problem I’ve run into with reviewing this trilogy is discussing the book while trying to avoid spoilers. I’ve decided that it’s close to impossible. You’ve been warned . . . Saving Midnight begins soon after the events of the second. Edmund has been rescued thanks to Graham, Pen, Estelle, Ben and [...]

Dear Ms. Holly: When I first decided to read and review your latest upyr trilogy, I had the idea that I would write a single review of all three books together.

Dear Ms. Holly, A few years ago, I read your historical romance Beyond Innocence. While I didn’t love the book, I thought it was better than average and I especially liked your writing voice, so much so that I quoted from it in my opinion piece on style.

Dear Ms. Holly: Whenever I think of erotica, my list always includes you. I remember that the first modern erotica book I read was menage. It was such a different story for me at the time. It was the first story I ever read that featured a menage. Since that time, you have moved from [...]

Dear Ms. Holly: This is probably my favorite book you have written so far. It’s a fairly traditional romance set in the Far East featuring young friends who have a close friendship and then are torn apart by one child’s family. While it is marketed as a paranormal and your worldbuilding is based upon the [...]
