review 1: I liked this book. I liked the idea, I liked the characters and I liked the plot. BUT...it all happens so quickly and so easily that it became almost forgettable and...well, not boring, but not intriguing or 'can't put this book down' either. There is an attempt at angst, but it ...

review 1: The big arc is progressing well and has had a mini-resolution. I'm upset by what happens at the very end, but based on the name of the next book title, I expect it to be fixed quickly!There are some universe inconsistencies that bother me: inner tiger that purrs, the time frame,...

review 1: I enjoyed it but I did feel it was a bit rushed in the beginning with Peter & Justin though it slowed down a bit after when Justin tried to avoid Peter in an effort to protect him from the trouble he was involved in. The plot isn't rushed though as I suspect it will carry over at...

review 1: This was the third book in a series that I've come to enjoy as a nice light weight hit of sci-fi romance. It has some steam, some intrigue, creative worldbuilding and enjoyable characters packed into what I'm coming to realize are like serial story installments. The abrupt endi...

review 1: I read Amber Kell's Wooing Master Jones and Considering Carlyle back to back. It's good that I did because the books build the characters.The action centres around the BDSM club but I wouldn't call them BDSM books, just light BDSM mentions here and there.The books are short but w...

review 1: Baby, baby, honey, baby, sweets, baby you get the message? Men do not talk like this in almost every sentence! It is beyond irritating and so unrealistic. The dialogue between the 2 MCs was so contrived and cliched it read like a middle school romance for teenagers not 2 strong a...

review 1: 2.5 StarsHonestly, I bought this because it was on sale at Totally Bound Books for $0.99. It was alright. It's short. It's pretty one-dimensional. The characters were entertaining but the author glossed over the main points: 1) the relationship development between the MCs and 2)...

review 1: Ah. That was actually pretty disappointing.To begin with, some inconsistencies. If they only met that one single time, when did they have those “few more conversations” that John alludes to? Also a bit odd how Lewis goes without any sort of explanation from “I can’t be with a guy...

review 1: I liked this book, I really did. Sometimes when two authors team up, the result can be less power packed plot, and more like two styles trying to fight their way out of the literary paper bag. Amber Kell and RJ Scott have put together a story that has a multi-layered plot that ...

review 1: About 2.5 stars. This story was okay. While I liked Callum, I found that Sinclair was a bit of a strange bird. He's depicted as a badass former merc and his over possessiveness is all alpha male (and a bit annoying). But then he also disgustingly shmoopy with Callum which jus...

review 1: This got an extra star because the human was not a wimp-o-rama who needed constantly to be saved. That does not mean this little book is without issues. On the contrary - there is much tell, little show, and less depth to the characters. In spite of that I got totally into it. I ...
