The Red King (Wyrd Book 1)
The Red King (Wyrd Book 1)

Review:I don't normally read zombie fiction but this one was so well done and captivating I couldn't put it down. Nick Cole writes like a master, with a nostalgically noir prose that makes you fall in love with his characters even when they are flawed like Holiday. Can't wait to read the next installment in the Red King. Read more

Ashfall (Ashfall Trilogy)

Review:This book is well written and keeps you engrossed through the very last page. You are "there" experiencing the events with the characters. This book is well worth reading, thought provoking, and will not be soon forgotten. Read more

Wherein Magic Gourd Advises Young Violet on How to Become a Popular Courtesan While Avoiding Cheapskates

Review:Nice little titillating read. I was expecting a plot though. I enjoyed the lesson and found it somewhat erotic, but I expected the story to develop. I understood that this was meant to be a prequel to a novel. I am still hopeful. Read more

Symptoms of Being Human
Symptoms of Being Human

Review:This book was even more heartbreaking than I anticipated, but also so hopeful & uplifting. And the characters, my lord. The characters in SYMPTOMS OF BEING HUMAN are the type that make a home in your heart.

Aside from my undying love for Riley's clever snark, there was Solo, a football and Star Wars loving jock nerd, and Bec, Riley's stunning, perceptive, and mysterious crush (mine too now.) Honestly all the supporting characters were amazingly written, with deep feeling and a light t... Read more

Thrown By A Curve (A Play-by-Play Novel Book 5)

Review:Thrown By a Curve by Jaci Burton
Contemporary Romance- March 5th, 2013
4 1/2 stars

This contemporary romance is part of a steamy series about the Rileys. An extended family who are all somehow related to sports.

In this story, Alicia Riley is a sports therapist working on the St Louis Rivers professional baseball team. Her group is working with the troublesome star pitcher Garrett Scott. Garrett has not been doing his therapy and is obviously being coddled. When she point... Read more

Hope Burns (A Hope Novel)
Hope Burns (A Hope Novel)

Review:I have to say I’m disappointed with this series. I’ve read most of her other books and they usually come with an in depth story and emotions. These are lacking. These come across as an early writer before they develop. It makes me sad since these had such a good chance of being better stories. I would not have wrote this if I had not read her wild riders and knew she could do much better. Read more

Changing the Game (A Play-by-Play Novel Book 2)
Changing the Game (A Play-by-Play Novel Book 2)

Review:Before you get started, you will need to be prepared. I advise the following. A glass of wine, a cold shower and a man on stand-by.

Sex. Sex, sex, sex. Sex.

Ok, now that I got that out of my system... Where should I start?

I have to admit, I wasn't crazy about the idea of Elizabeth being the heroine in this book. I hated her in The Perfect Play and I would have been okay with never seeing her in another book again. So, while I was excited about Jaci Burton's next book ... Read more

Straddling the Line (A Play-by-Play Novel)

Review:STRADDLING THE LINE was a nicely spicy sports romance featuring Haven Briscoe and Trevor Shay. They have known each other since college. Haven's dad and mom were the house parents to a house full of athletes. Trevor was one of them. Haven had a massive crush on Trevor but he didn't even notice. He was too busy being charming, skating around his schoolwork and developing his skills in baseball and football.

When Trevor gets a call from Haven's mother saying that Haven isn't doing well afte... Read more

Offside (The Barker Triplets Book 1)

Review:Interesting reading about female hockey players. I know hockey is a lot of meanness on the ice. But reading it like a story makes it more real. The character's and plot is good. Good book for light reading. Read more
