When you read a Christine Feehan book, you know what you’re getting. No matter the series, no matter the hero, no matter the heroine, you know the formula, and it’s either one you loathe or one you can’t live without. But the added wrinkle here – a D/s relationship with full-on kitten play – is…
The alpha president of a motorcycle club (MC) and a bartender-turned-badass heroine fall in love and raise a little hell in the newest installment of Chantal Fernando’s Knights of Fury series. A moderately affecting romance with thrilling action, Temper tells an entertaining, at times soap-operatic, story about a young woman’s journey to self-discovery. Abbie (whose…
Before starting this Megan Crane’s Make You Burn, I suspected that I didn’t like motorcycle club romances. Now that I’ve finished it, I know for sure that I don’t, because if I did, this is a book I would love. Sophie Lombard’s father – ‘Priest’ – led New Orleans’s Deacons of Bourbon Street motorcycle club,…
It’s hard to be objective when your heart’s involved, and Penny Reid definitely got my heart involved with her Winston Brothers series (not to mention my feet, which occasionally danced me across my bedroom floor when she wrote something so wonderful that I just had to get up and wriggle with all the feels). But…
Like all fans of the Winston Brothers series by Penny Reid, I’ve been awaiting the release of Beard With Me (the origin story of the series) with equal parts excitement and trepidation. I knew this would be a sad story, and part of me really did not want to read it – a big part…
Where to start with Judgment Road?

This is an often visceral book that will generate strong reactions from readers, and my…
In the mood for something spicy as the dead of winter surrounds us? Jackie Ashenden gives us a heated but somewhat difficult story in Ruined, her first release for Harlequin’s new Dare line, about a will-they-or-won’t-they relationship between two childhood friends who fake a relationship to protect her daughter. Cat Livingston is in deep, deep…
I have mixed feelings about Ride Rough, the second story in Laura Kaye’s motorcycle club series Raven Riders. I’ve read and enjoyed books by this author before, but this one didn’t quite ‘click’ with me – which I’m hoping is just a one off. Ride Rough is a sexy second-chance romance for the club’s vice…
If you’d told me six months ago that I would read motorcycle club romances, I would have called you a lunatic. I assumed these stories would not be relatable and – for lack of a better word – icky. But after reading Maria Rose’s review of Megan Crane’s Devil’s Honor, I decided to give these…
Starting off the first book in a new series with a hot and steamy sex scene is a risk. You’re either going to entice readers to want to read more about the two characters in question, or turn them off with the blatant images presented. Ms. Crane seems to be doing her fair share of…
