About Willaful

Willaful fell in love with romance novels at an early age, but ruthlessly suppressed the passion for years, while grabbing onto any crumbs of romance to be found in other genres. She finally gave in and started reading romance again in 2006, and has been trying to catch up with the entire genre ever since. Look for her on twitter or at her blog at www.willaful.wordpress.com

REVIEW: Phoenix Inheritance by Corrina Lawson

WillafulC+ Reviewsautistic character / contemporary romantic suspense / Paranormal / Reunited Couple6 Comments

Dear Corrina Lawson: Phoenix Inheritance is a action-packed (Navy SEALs,) family issues oriented (autism,) paranormal (psychic powers) romance, and it does all of those things pretty well. Renee Black and Daz Montoya are no longer together, but Daz is part of their son’s life, although his security work keeps him ... more >

What Willaful’s Been Reading and Listening To, Winter 2015

WillafulBook Reviewsaudiobooks / Reading lists2 Comments

This is a selected list rather than my entire reading; if I included every Harlequin Presents I read over the last few months, it’d look like I’m on the take.   A Christmas Gone Perfectly Wrong by Cecilia Grant Janine wrote a lovely review of this; I don’t have much ... more >

REVIEW: Vanilla by Megan Hart

WillafulB- ReviewsBDSM / BDSM Lite / erotica / femdomComments Off on REVIEW: Vanilla by Megan Hart

Dear Megan Hart: I try not to have any expectations when starting a Hart book, unless it’s the expectation that it won’t be a traditionally structured genre romance. That’s definitely the case here. The blurb centers on two people named Elise and Niall, but our narrator Elise doesn’t meet Niall ... more >

REVIEW: Summer Storm by Joan Wolf

WillafulB Reviewsactor / college / Contemporary romance / marriage on the rocks / Reunited Couple10 Comments

Dear Joan Wolf: When I started browsing through this book and saw that the heroine’s husband asks her to get an abortion, I had to immediately check the end to see whether he could actually be the hero. In most of the romances I read, if abortion comes up at ... more >

REVIEW: A Clean Break by Keira Andrews

WillafulC+ ReviewsAmish / m/m / New Adult / San-Francisco / Series2 Comments

Dear Keira Andrews: Examining oneself in a mirror has become a huge cliche in fiction, but for the character of David Lantz, it’s more than a convenient way of describing what he looks like: it’s his first opportunity to see himself naked. To be admiring his own body was sinfully ... more >

REVIEW: Trade Me by Courtney Milan

WillafulB- Reviews / Book Reviewsclass-difference / college students / interracial-romance / New Adult / POC / POC author32 Comments

Dear Courtney Milan: It cracked me up to read the GoodReads comments of people who are waiting for this, because most of them follow exactly my own thought processes: “New Courtney Milan, yay! Billionaire hero New Adult novel…. err…” I don’t think most of those readers will be sorry they ... more >
