When the demon doctor met the demon-slayer

Pleasure Unbound (Demonica #1) by Larissa Ione

by Leave a Comment

Pleasure Unbound by Larissa Ione builds an interesting world of demons that aren’t all evil. The first book in this older paranormal romance series follows Tayla a demon-slayer who meets a demon doctor named Eidolon. He runs a secret demon hospital where he vows to help anyone who is hurt who is in need. Even the beautiful and dangerous ones who plot to kill his kind. Early in the book, Tayla has a shocking revelation that turns her world upside down. She is forced to […]

A supernatural Romancing the Stone

Pleasure of a Dark Prince by Kresley Cole

by Leave a Comment

I’m still working through the Immortals After Dark series from Kresley Cole. This series thrives on both the “enemies to lovers” and “fated mates” tropes. Two supernatural beings have a violent encounter, then spend the rest of the book fighting the passion between them. It can be formulaic, but always entertaining and often comforting. Never difficult to finish. Pleasure of a Dark Prince is the 8th book since the first novella, but the 11th novel that I’ve read from Cole. We go deep into the […]

A small town paranormal romance reminiscent of Northern Exposure

How to Date Your Dragon (Mystic Bayou #1) by Molly Harper

by Leave a Comment

Molly Harper’s paranormal romance series kicks off with How to Date Your Dragon. I previously read a novella from this universe for CBR11 called Even Tree Nymphs Get the Blues. The world was hilarious and the story didn’t skimp on the heat. I meant to go back to the beginning last year, but the ‘Rona made me totally forget about it. Mystic Bayou, Louisiana is a small town where humans and magical beings coexist in this unique harmony. Jillian works for a secret organization that […]

Cozy mysteries that will make you hungry

Death by Dumpling by Vivien Chien

A Deadly Inside Scoop by Abby Collette

by 1 Comment

Sometimes you need a cozy mystery (or two) to relax your mind. If you’re looking for low-stakes mysteries featuring female amateur sleuths, give the Noodle Shop or Ice Cream Parlor books a whirl. Coincidently, these are both set in Ohio. A Deadly Inside Scoop by Abby Collette is a newer series with only two books released. In book one, we meet Bronwyn, Win for short, as she re-opens the family’s ice cream shop in the middle of winter. Not the best time, but her home-made […]

CBR Diversions – Literary Couples That Make You Swoon

by 48 Comments

With Valentine’s Day swiftly approaching, romance is in the air. To complement our featured romance book reviews, this week’s CBR Diversion celebrates our favorite literary couples. Who makes you swoon? I know many of you are historical romance fans who love a reformed rake who meets his match. Daphne and Simon have become quite popular in the zeitgeist after the Netflix adaption of Julia Quinn’s The Duke and I premiered. Personally, I’m a sucker for the slow burn courtship in urban fantasy series. In the […]
