Horny Dragon Book

Consort of Fire by Kit Rocha

November 15, 2023 by Emmalita 6 Comments

I am very fond of Kit Rocha’s books. When asked what they wanted readers to get out of their books, the two authors who make up Kit Rocha, Donna Herren and Bree Bridges, said hope and joy. I think they deliver. I found them in 2019, and I genuinely do not know how I would have made it through the last few years without the chaotic, supportive, and fiery communities they have built. Their new series, Bound to Fire and Steel, is pure romantasy (fantasy+romance). […]

I am reviewing this just so I can recommend a different book.

Pucking Around by Emily Rath

July 3, 2023 by Emmalita 2 Comments

I’ve seen Emily Rath’s Pucking Around mentioned a lot in my romance circles, so I took a look. I love a high heat romance, and Why choose? can be a fun trope. I am dnfing at 47%. It has a couple of issues that bother me, and I’ve read a version of this I liked better so I’ve lost interest in finishing it. I’m trading in Rachel, Jake, Caleb and Ilmari for a reread of Rachel, Ace, Cruz and the horny denizens of the Sector 4. […]

You glorious, murderous, dangerous goddess.

Dance With the Devil by Kit Rocha

July 19, 2022 by Emmalita 1 Comment

Dance With the Devil delivers on the promises made in the first two Mercenary Librarians books, Deal With the Devil and The Devil You Know. Rafe has been pining for Dani since she stabbed him a little bit the first time they met. Dani would have liked to work off the sexual tension between them, but once she adopted Rafe as one of her people, she couldn’t just tromp on his feelings. This is their book and Kit Rocha doesn’t make us wait too long […]

What I read when everything is falling apart

Deal With the Devil by Kit Rocha

The Devil You Know by Kit Rocha

July 8, 2022 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

The consequence of the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v Wade and their signaling that they will be paving the way for the fascists is having immediate consequences in my life. In a few months my life will be very different and possibly significantly worse. It might be ok, but I have an anxiety disorder, so I’ll be catastrophizing for a good while. I feel like everything is falling apart and there’s nothing I can d to stop it. Since I can’t do anything […]

The Devil You Know

“You don’t know how many forks I’m packing.”

The Devil You Know by Kit Rocha

September 20, 2021 by llamareadsbooks Leave a Comment

CBR13Bingo: Rep – Maya has several sensitivity triggers, including certain noises and textures I’m a longtime Kit Rocha reader, so of course I was beyond excited to see the next book in the Mercenary Librarians series. I went in expecting lots of found family goodness, steamy scenes and maybe a little murder-by-fork. And, oh boy, did I ever love this book! As a warning, this is the second in the series, so there will be spoilers for the first book. It’s basically super soldier Brady […]

The Importance of the Library

Deal With the Devil by Kit Rocha

September 5, 2021 by CoffeeShopReader 1 Comment

Bingo 18: Shelfie I knew there was going to be some romance going into Deal with the Devil, but I was really hoping the series title “Mercenary Librarians” would be more the focus. Sadly for me, this was definitely more romance than librarian-ness. Set in a somewhat generic dystopic US potentially within my lifetime (maybe, assuming I get close to the triple digit age) after humanity has been devastated by some massive solar flare activity (I liked how this was put in; not a big […]
