Shades of Lust

A new series, moving from a tattoo shop to a… brothel?

Shades of Lust by E.M. Lindsey

February 4, 2022 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

I wasn’t really sure what to expect with this series. I’d read and loved one of the author’s previous books, but, I mean, a brothel based on all of the seven sins? It seemed like an interesting concept, but one that could go full bananapants rather quickly. Well, I shouldn’t have doubted them! The book completely sells the concept and the individual characters very well! After a traumatic vehicle accident at nineteen, Stone bought an old abbey a short distance from a small town and […]

“I’m a bounty hunter. I hunt criminals and murderers; I don’t work for them.”

Hunt the Stars by Jessie Mihalik

February 1, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 5 Comments

I have basically two responses to a book I absolutely, ridiculously love. I either make tons of highlights because I just love every single line of prose, or I highlight almost nothing because I’m too caught up in the story. This book is definitely of the second variety. It also hits all of the right notes for me, with a focus on found family, a twisty plot, and just enough romance to keep my HEA-loving heart interested. “I’m a bounty hunter. I hunt criminals and […]

It’s a cozy trashy romance!

Match with the Demon by Chace Verity

January 30, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 2 Comments

It’s a cozy trashy romance! All of the author’s cozy demon romances have been an absolute delight, and this one is no different. While past books have dealt with single parents of teens and elementary schoolers, this one has an empty nester. “It was probably too late to freak out over having a greasy Valentine’s Day meal in a sports bar with an actual demon. But it was not too late to be thoroughly confused. How had he matched with a demon on his first […]

An Operative's Last Stand

A thrilling end to an action-packed series

An Operative's Last Stand by Juno Rushdan

January 25, 2022 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

Needless to say, after the last book, I was dying to know what was next for Topaz unit, especially after that tantalizing hint about who Hunter’s love interest would be. Let’s just say that she didn’t come off so great in the last book, so when I read the blurb and saw that my suspicions were confirmed? Whoa. Needless to say, the author knocked it out of the park with a rollercoaster ending to the series. Bound by the intensity of their missions, the Topaz […]

Love and Other Disasters

Baking, love and LA traffic

Love & Other Disasters by Anita Kelly

January 21, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 8 Comments

That cover is incredibly gorgeous, and it actually accurately represents the main characters! Dahlia’s hair! London’s freckles! And like the cover, this book is just plain adorable. The authenticity of their feelings was such a breath of fresh air and I loved every bit. Dahlia is still reeling from her divorce, but cooking is the one thing that makes her feel in control of her life, the one thing she’s good at. She quit her job to go on Chef’s Special, an amateur cooking reality […]

Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves

“We race the cold and night, my wolf and I.”

Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves by Meg Long

January 14, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 1 Comment

I’m a sucker for kid-and-their-dog books, and this is a high-stakes scifi version of that. It’s the perfect book for reading while snowed in and cuddling your own dog. “No wolves. No sleds. No racing.” I say it automatically despite the lump in my throat. “Foolish rule for life on a planet that revolves around those three things,” she quips.” Tundar, an Edge World, that has near constant electrical storms and a frigid climate. Corpos – giant corporations – attempted to terraform the world once, […]
