REVIEW: The Vampire and the Virgin by Kerrelyn Sparks

ShuzluvaC Reviewsvampires / virgin2 Comments

The LiveJournal community of “Found Objects” posted this awesome 1965 publication “The Recently Deflowered Girl” with illustrations. Set aside about 30 minutes and all beverages. I would like to see a recreation of this for all romance sub-genres. Thanks bec and others for the linkage.

REVIEW: The Darkest Kiss by Gena Showalter

JiaB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book Reviewsdemons / Gena-Showalter / Lords of the Underworld / myth / opposites / Paranormal / scarred-people / virgin12 Comments

Dear Ms. Showalter, Even though the prequel and first book of your Lords of the Underworld series failed to impress me, I wasn’t ready to give up on such a great premise. I hoped one of the later installments would work better for me. With this second book in the ... more >
