I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Reaper’s Fall by Joanna Wylde. A bit dark for my liking and some aspects of the story didn’t feel cohesive. I liked it, but not as much as the earlier books.

I’m over at AudioGals with a review of Tall, Dark and Wicked by Madeline Hunter, narrated by Lulu Russell. The narration was kind of average, but the story was good.
I’m over at Dear Author with a review of Fangs for the Memories by Molly Harper. Written for fans, this novella tells the story of how Andrea finally accepted Dick’s invitation for a first date.
Why I read it: I’m a fan of the series and buy these whenever there’s a new one out. Rocky Retreat is a novella length audio I’ve had on my TBL for a little while.
What it’s about: (from Goodreads) Finding white-hot love in a white-out…
Eight months ago, Lee Coleman met the woman of his dreams…then lost her to another man. He buried his disappointment by throwing himself into work on the family ranch, but when a winter storm leaves him stranded, Lee finds more than shelter in the rustic safety of a hunter’s cabin—he finds a second shot at love.
Rachel Malone’s heart has been broken and stomped on by her cheating ex, and she’s determined to never fall in love again. But a rebound fling? Doesn’t sound like such a bad idea, especially when she’s snowed-in with a gorgeous, sweet-talking Coleman.
Despite their off-the-charts chemistry, Lee makes it clear he wants more than a temporary romp. In fact, he’s made it his mission to put a smile back on her face, even if it means taking it slow and resisting the scorching heat between them. This time around, he wants forever, while Rachel is positive that forever is a fool’s dream.
Lee can’t wait to prove her wrong…
What worked for me (and what didn’t): Rachel Malone is licking her wounds after finding out her husband of only six months had been cheating on her for at least five of them. She takes a few days off to regroup, staying in a remote hunter’s cabin. When Lee Coleman is stuck in a storm and takes shelter in the same cabin they are forced to hang out together for a few days, until the weather clears enough for them to get safely down the mountain. Lee has had a thing for Rachel since he first met her but because he’s 24 and she’s 33, she shrugged off his advances, thinking they weren’t serious. Lee realised his mistake (ie not persisting) when Rachel married douchebag Gary. Now that Gary and Rachel have split, Lee sees his chance and he’s not going to make the same mistake twice.

Some friends and me did a kinda-sorta buddy read of Walk Through Fire by Kristen Ashley (it wasn’t entirely synced – I had to play catch up but the ladies kindly waited for me). After, we met in a Google document to share our thoughts about Kristen Ashley books in general and Walk Through Fire in particular. Here it is, at Immersed in Books by Ana Coqui. Thank you to Ana for organising the shared document and hosting the post.
I’ll have my own slightly more detailed review of Walk Through Fire going up here in a few days. I’ll add a link when it’s live.
I’m over at AudioGals with a review of Dair Devil by Lucinda Brant, narrated by Alex Wyndham. I have run out of superlatives to describe the narration. Alex Wyndham is all the things.
