My Review

I just finished the 4th book in the Immortal Guardian series by Dianne Duvall Darkness Rises. I love this series. I've also been working on catching up with the Argeneau series with #18 Immortals Ever After and I just finished up #16 Under A Vampire Moon (I've been reading them out of order lately). They haven't wowed me since the beginning 6 or 7 but are average 3 Stars. I also just finished Wrapped Up in You #8 in the Heartbreaker Bay series by Jill Shalvis. I wasn't super wowed by it either, but it was a nice fluffy romance.

Christina, that’s great feedback about the Immortal Guardian series! I have the first book on my schedule.

my review


I’m reading The Bad Boy Experiment by Reese Ryan.

Recently finished Night Unbound the 5th book in Dianne Duvall's Immortal Guardian series. So good. I really want to jump into book 6 but neither my reading challenge games was courteous enough to call a weekly prompt that worked for it 😕 I've also finished an ok book from Eve Langlais called When an Alpha Purrs her books are decent 3 star reads. Nothing super OMG fantastic but good fluff.... good smexy fluff. Not sure if anyone else has heard of Morning Glory Milking Farm or not but apparently it's trending on Tiktok. I had no idea about that when I picked it up. I found it on Amazon when I was looking at the second book in the Spider's Mate series by Tiffany Roberts after finishing Ensnared this last week. Ensnared's world building was interesting but it definitely isn't for everyone. Erotica with an alien... an alien that resembled a spider...an upright walking man-spider aka Spider-Man. I tell you, my reading got weird this last week. So back to Morning Glory Milking Farm.... underneath all of the minotaur sex and...other smexy things, there was a really sweet romance. The book had some issues.... the time-line jumped around a bit with no warning and the cover is terrible but I'm 100% looking forward to the next book...whenever it gets published.

I finished listening to Morning Glory by LaVyrle Spencer and it is a lovely story.

I've read several series by Rebecca Zanetti. It's interesting to me that the books are inconsistent. Some are absolutely smashing - high energy, creative, dramatic and then others are so, meh. I'm happy to say that this books ranks up there with one her best. (Although my favorite is still .

I've never heard of Mercury Striking. I'll have to check it out.
