Though I rarely read sci-fi romance, I made an exception and picked up The Star King after we recently reposted a B+ review and it was free on Amazon. I was entertained by the story but not as fond of it as my fellow reviewer. Underdeveloped relationships and world-building, combined with one too many significant plot…
Every now and then I like to depart from the mainstream of contemporary romances that I usually read and pick up an erotic science fiction romance. These are not to be confused with something of say, an Arthur C. Clarke variety of sci-fi. Generally speaking they are rather irreverent fantasies, products purely of an author’s…
Narrated by Christina Delaine Quite a few of my fellow reviewers have raved about Michelle Diener’s Class 5 series. So, when the audio version of Dark Horse, the first book in the series, became available for review, I was eager to give it a listen. I’m pleased to report the story was everything I was hoping…

I first heard of R.L. Smith when I read The Last Hour of Gann, one of the finest science fiction romance books I have ever read. It was difficult to read Cottonwood without similar expectations, but that would be doing the book an injustice. Twenty years ago, an alien spaceship came to Earth, only to…

This is easily my favorite book of 2015. What makes it absolutely perfect to me are the likable, intelligent characters, the superb handling of the subject matter and the excellent writing.Most people I have recommended it to have loved it as well, which sort of doubles my pleasure. I hope this review will introduce it…
When I picked up this book to refresh my memory before writing my review I found myself rereading the whole thing. A rare space adventure romance this is a completely enthralling story about courage, love and the indomitable human spirit that the best of us convey. Just call it the Unbroken of the romance genre….
I love stories about aliens. I have ever since childhood when I discovered authors like Andre Norton and Isaac Asimov. While sci-fi novels have been out of style and fantasy and paranormal books have reached ascendancy recent publishing trends have me hoping we are about to see that change. Senior Cara Sweeney hasn’t reached Valedictorian…
