REVIEW: Dreamer by Ann Mayburn

REVIEW: Dreamer by Ann Mayburn

Dear Ms. Mayburn, I’m always on the look out for Paranormal Romance stories that don’t feature the usual set up of vampires vs werewolves or angels vs demons. Though I haven’t read your work before, the blurb for Dreamer, the new book in your Chosen by the Gods series, intrigued me because it offered a(…)

REVIEW: Velvet Submission by Violet Summers

REVIEW: Velvet Submission by Violet Summers

Dear Ms. Summers. I picked up this book because it was a romance with a female dominant and a male submissive, which is about the only reason I read straight romance nowadays. And while I enjoyed it, it has solidified for me that BDSM romance is mostly about fantasy fulfillment rather than verisimilitude. I’m becoming(…)

REVIEW: Falling Star by Olivia Brynn

REVIEW: Falling Star by Olivia Brynn

Dear Ms. Brynn, Who is it who said that books about rock stars don’t sell? Well, in the case of this book, I hope that saying is wrong. Adam Nash parties like a rock star – even if he’s a country and western rock star. And he’s got the headlines and tabloid stories to prove(…)

REVIEW: A Hearing Heart by Bonnie Dee

REVIEW: A Hearing Heart by Bonnie Dee

Dear Ms Dee, Thanks for offering Dear Author the chance to review your latest historical from Liquid Silver. And then for following up with me to be sure I got the book. I do fall behind on my reviewing at times. After the death of her fiancé, Catherine Johnson, a New York schoolteacher in 1901,(…)

REVIEW: Falling Through Glass by Barbara Sheridan

REVIEW: Falling Through Glass by Barbara Sheridan

Dear Ms. Sheridan, When Tina submitted a list of new books to Dear Author for possible review, “Falling Through Glass” grabbed my attention. Hmmm, time travel to 19th century Japan in the waning days of samurai warriors. Can’t get much more different than that. Since I’m feeling lazy this morning. I’m just going to steal(…)

Four Ways NOT to Write BDSM Romance

Four Ways NOT to Write BDSM Romance

As there are many ways to get romance wrong, there are exponentially more ways to get BDSM romance wrong. BDSM is tricky. If you’re writing it because it’s hot, but you’ve got no experience with it, you’re almost bound to get it wrong. Almost, but not always, I hasten to add. Examples of successful BDSM(…)

REVIEW: Hearts Afire: April by Emery Sanborne and Jaime Craig

REVIEW: Hearts Afire: April by Emery Sanborne and Jaime Craig

Dear Ladies, It’s taken me far too long to finally review this offering which I got in ::winces:: April. Bad moi. But here it is at last. Once Burned by Emery Sanborne Dear Ms Sanborne, Hot firefighters, hot attraction, hot sex. “Once Burned” has all three. Plus lots of local Philadelphia color. Andreas Sullivan has(…)

REVIEW: Jessie’s Girl by Amber Scott

REVIEW: Jessie’s Girl by Amber Scott

Dear Ms. Scott, I’m so glad that The Powers That Be at Liquid Silver offered me a chance to read your novel. And so sorry it took me seemingly ages to get to it. But the book is more than worth it to read. I only wish the title didn’t bring to mind 80s heart(…)

REVIEW: Alien Communion by Xandra Gregory

Dear Ms. Gregory, What can I say but, my goodness, that was different from what I normally read. Honestly I’m not even sure what caught my attention in the book blurb. I guess I thought this might be some kind of alien mild meld, meeting of two different cultures kind of thing. Well, it’s that(…)
