Musings of a Romance Author
Maiden Lane Book 7 I’ve spent quite a bit of time trying to think about what to write in this review. The thing is, this book was not bad, but it didn’t make me feel a great deal either. The characters didn’t draw me in even though Apollo, a convicted murderer on the run following … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: ”Darling Beast” by Elizabeth Hoyt
Ice Planet Barbarians Book 1 Trigger warnings:- Abduction- Imprisonment- Rape (secondary character) Who would have thought a romance featuring blue aliens would be so compelling? I gave this a try because it was highly recommended in an FB group and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I need something light and … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “Ice Planet Barbarians” by Ruby Dixon
Rules of the Rogue Book 2 Yes, it's June, but I did read this last Christmas. I'm six months behind posting my reviews. I don’t normally do Christmas books at Christmas (yeah, I’m weird), but I thought this might help me feel more festive. Plus, as a Brit, I’ve been longing to read a Regency … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “Merry Christmas, My Viscount” by Emily Windsor
Oh, how I love Lucy Hutton and Josh Templeman. If you want a slow burn romance with all the feels, then this is the couple who will give it to you. The writing style makes this quite difficult to get into because it’s very chaotic. I’m not certain if it’s deliberate because it’s told from … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “The Hating Game” by Sally Thorne
Bow Street Book 1 It took me ages to read this book. Every page felt like a slog, but I forced myself to read it, well... most of it. I skimmed a lot at the end. When I first started reading historical romance, I would have listed Kleypas as one of my favourite authors, but … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “Someone To Watch Over Me” by Lisa Kleypas
Victorian Rebels Book 4 This book started with a bang. We're taken straight into the action where Cole and Imogen meet at a gambling den. Imogen is working (using the name Ginny) to pay off her father’s debts and take care of her family. However, I should warn you that it’s a little bit seedy … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “The Duke” by Kerrigan Byrne
Note from Bianca: Something went wrong with the original blog page so I had to re-post this review. Please accept my apologies if you receive this notification twice. A Court of Thorns and Roses book 3 Feyre is now acting as a spy in the Spring Court. Tamlin is as strange as ever; he’s not … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “A Court of Wings and Ruin” by Sarah J Maas
I didn’t enjoy The Savage and the Swan as much as I thought I would for several reasons. First, I found the writing very disjointed. I kept having to re-read sentences because they didn’t make sense the first time. Second, there were so many plot holes that had me questioning the story. The plot was … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “The Savage and the Swan” by Ella Fields
If you enjoy sci-fi romance with scarred heros then look no further. Bianca's Book Review Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Olmi Warriors Book 1 Warning: Strong sexual language in the book and this review. This is the first ARC I've ever reviewed! If you're not familiar with the book release process, an ARC is an advanced reader copy. Pre-release, authors give out ARCs for their book in return for honest reviews. As I will one … Continue reading Bianca’s Book Review: “Claimed in Orbit” by Brianna Everly
