REVIEW:  Dark Soul: Volumes 3, 4, and 5 by Aleksandr Voinov

REVIEW: Dark Soul: Volumes 3, 4, and 5 by Aleksandr Voinov

Dear Mr. Voinov, Your Dark Soul series has been a roller-coaster ride for me. It is not a genre romance, even though it has some very romantic moments. It features themes I rarely seek out, including menage, BDSM, and protagonists in organized crime. Purchasing all five volumes is not inexpensive. It is quite brutal in(…)

REVIEW: Simply Insatiable by Kate Pearce

REVIEW: Simply Insatiable by Kate Pearce

Dear Ms. Pearce, I read and reviewed your book Simply Wicked last year and gave it a C+. Since I mentioned in that review that I was interested in reading the series further (in spite of the mediocre grade I gave the book), you were kind enough to offer me Simply Insatiable. I think having(…)

REVIEW: Double Dare by Jeanne St. James

REVIEW: Double Dare by Jeanne St. James

Dear Ms. St. James, This book put me to sleep. I mean, I’d had four hours sleep the night before I read it and I was in bed trying to nap, but srsly, this book totally put me to sleep. In the middle of (one of) the (many) big sex scene(s). This is Not Good.(…)

REVIEW: When Alex Was Bad by Jo Davis

REVIEW: When Alex Was Bad by Jo Davis

Dear Ms. Davis: I picked up this book at B&N because of the cover. I bought it because of its premise and because I’m fascinated by full triad m/m/f menage books actually being sold in the romance section at bricks-and-mortar stores, so I wanted to support that. Once I did, the book was…well, okay. Nothing(…)

REVIEW: Simply Wicked by Kate Pearce

REVIEW: Simply Wicked by Kate Pearce

Dear Ms. Pearce, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I began your latest book, Simply Wicked, not having read you before and having only the vague idea that you write erotic romance, a term that has come to be applied a bit too broadly to provide much useful information for me as a reader.(…)

REVIEW: The Claiming by Trinity Blacio

Jane: Maili, I understand you just finished reading (or is that too generous of a word) the words compiled into one PDF known as The Claiming by Trinity Blacio published by Siren Publishing-Bookstrand, Inc. The Claiming is ostensibly about a young woman whose family was killed in a bomb explosion on the family boat 10(…)

REVIEW: The Huntsmen 2: Backtrack by Amber Green

REVIEW: The Huntsmen 2: Backtrack by Amber Green

Dear Ms. Green, Holy batshit, Batman, here we go again. It’s back to the alternate reality world you’ve created with the Hunstmen – hot men who roam in twin brother pairs looking for a good woman who likes it like that. Trying to keep sane via the emotional energy they can unleash from her following(…)

REVIEW:  Sex, Spies and Sapphires by Shelley Munro

REVIEW: Sex, Spies and Sapphires by Shelley Munro

Dear Ms Munro, For a book as short as this is, with three main characters, lots secondary characters and several long sex scenes, I should have gotten the feeling that every word was being used for a purpose, that every scene counted, that maximum use was made of the entire story. Instead, what I felt(…)

REVIEW: CB: Dare Me by Leigh Ellwood

Dear Ms. Ellwood: You have a fun sense of humor and your prose is quite readable. The romance, however, seemed rushed and pushed aside for the sake of the explicit sexual content. I had trouble believing that this couple truly loved each other or whether they just enjoyed the sex. Cal Briscoe is a studio(…)

REVIEW: Blackmailed by Annmarie McKenna

Dear Ms. McKenna: It’s a bit ironic that I would write the following because yours is a story where I would recommend to readers to skip the story and just read the sex scenes. Because your sex scenes are pretty good. It’s when the three of the characters step outside the bedroom, or dressing room,(…)

REVIEW:  Menage a Magick by Lora Leigh

REVIEW: Menage a Magick by Lora Leigh

Dear Ms Leigh, Thanks to a friend, I got to read your ebook all about twin wizards, princess consort of same, a dragon (thank God he’s not in on the sex part) and magick. Not magic, mind you, but magick. Blue green magick that erupts whenever the twin wizards and their princess consort get nekkid(…)
