Here’s a collection of Christmas Romances I read over the Holiday Season: A Merry Little Meet Cute by Julie Murphy & Sierra Simone A porn producer wants to branch out and make some movies with the wholesome streaming company, the Hope Channel (think Hallmark meets Netflix), but the majority of the cast and crew are injured at a Burning Man-type festival.

Snakes. Why did it have to be snakes? Sexy, sexy, snakes!

Entranced by the Basilisks by Lillian Lark

It’s been a long time since I posted a review, and even longer since I read this book, so I’m a little fuzzy on the details. Life got in the way, but I have a little more spare time now, so prepare for a deluge of reviews of books I read as far back as April! This is the third book in the Monstrous Matches series, but you don’t have to have read the previous two to understand this one. You should though, because they […]

by 1 Comment

Yeah, not only am I back on my Monster Smut bullshit, but it’s Katee Robert Monster Smut at that!

In this case, the women are auctioned off to the half-human lords of the different monster realms. They are not allowed to be harmed or coerced into doing anything […]

by 4 Comments

WHAT in the VICTIM-BLAMEY BULLSHIT did I JUST READ??? Okay, listen, I’m on board with the consensual monster-fucking. No question. I will read ten bajillion versions of the same basic Beauty & the Beast plot where we literally or metaphorically marry the creepy creature, and then discover that that there is actually a soulmate. Great! Gets me every time! I am even fully down for the variations where the monster love interest has totally non-human anatomy – it requires authorial creativity that I enjoy, and […]

A Delightful Diversion

That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon by Kimberly Lemming

by 1 Comment

See what had happened was I woke up with a migraine. A real doozy of a skull-splitter. And there I was, in bed with medicines and comfort objects and drawn curtains and agony. Days like this I can’t watch tv, can’t do much of anything besides lie still and quiet and wait for sleep or sweet release of death. I open my kindle, throw it in to dark mode, bump up the text size until the words aren’t blurry and hope to find a story […]

She slowly comes to realize just how lonely she is. When she was a young child, she was saved from a demon by a Duskwalker.
