The slogan for this book is as follows: Can you fall in love in thirteen hours? Well, in ‘lust’ maybe. But ‘love’? Answer: certainly! This is certainly the case in Thirteen Hours . Even if you wouldn’t think of that in advance. But leave that to Meghan O’Brien 😉. It’s workaholic Dana Watts’s birthday. Naturally, she celebrates her birthday at the office by working overtime. A co-worker…
A novel with a psychic in it, is that possible? And then also a real one that can be taken seriously? Because unfortunately it is getting pretty silly against Dr. Grace Jennings and about her gift. But leave it to Gerri Hill to write a nice story around this. Do not worry. Even in Gillette Park, Gerri Hill manages…
I’ll be honest. It took me some time getting used to this understated novel by Eliza Lentzski. But just like the wine that Sour Grapes is about, the book had to mature a bit in my experience. This metaphor is a bit far-fetched, but accurate nonetheless 😂. In Sour Grapes, June St. Clare is heading towards a promising future. She…
Despite the fact that I’ve read a whole lot of books in the last two years. I still have a long to-read list of books I’ve already bought. I’ve also downloaded a lot in the case of fanfic. I still love to read my favorite books a second time. So, The Goodmans is one of those. Because this book…
I think this is Gerri Hill’s first novel, or else one of the first published novels. For me, this one is a favorite because it’s a guilty pleasure 😏. Johanna and Kelly flirt with each other. They give in to the attraction they feel, with or without an audience 😉. To me, it’s, let’s say, nostalgic….
Available at Harper Bliss webshop The cover of this book is so good! When I think of this book, I also think of a swimming pool. Among other things 🤭. In any case, Seasons of Love is a great novel to read during the summer holidays. During the winter holidays also works in keeping you nice and warm 🥵😂….
Xena as a bandit in a western story? Yes, anything is possible in fanfiction 🪅. And luckily so! In Towards Sunset, the bandit Jess resides in the town of Meyersville. To pass the time, she goes after the good schoolteacher Mattie. Mattie is intimidated by the arrogant Jess, who seems to care about nothing and no one. But looks are…
In The Target, Gerri Hill takes you on another exciting adventure. I do remember seeing this one but was waiting to buy it. It was the fact that the story was set during a walking tour with a group of women. Usually, I like it better when not too many characters appear on stage. But I finally bought it and…
This novel is slightly different from the others. It is a kind of diptych, there is a part that takes place during a holiday. Sun, sea, and other fun things. And there’s a part that takes place in ‘back to reality’. In The Midnight Moon, Accountant Peyton Watts goes on a beach vacation at her assistant’s urging. There she meets…
I think Harper Bliss is a very interesting author. That may not come off as enthusiastic, but I truly am about her. I have read many of her books. She writes books that regularly deal with controversial topics. These topics include alcoholism, suicide(tendency), body positivity, extreme sex, and polyamorous relationships, to name a few 😉. Age-gap is also…

I like novels, romantic, sweet, sexy, angst, everything. So in general I like sweet and sultry stories. Having said all that, it seems my tastes have changed slightly. I find that I find ‘dark stories’ that are edgy, so to speak, extremely interesting. That’s why I enjoyed this novel by Lianyu Tan so much. And also the beautiful cover! In The…
Jazzfordshire has written a lot of great Supercorp stories, but this stood out for me. It’s cute. And romantic🥰. Take Miss Congeniality, one of my favorite movies and not at all because of Sandra Bullock 😇, dip it in a Supercorp sauce, et voila. Brilliantly conceived. If you’re not familiar with the movie, let’s put it in a nutshell. Kara Danvers…
It’s almost time, the tennis season is starting again! And which fic is better than Grand Slam Thank You, Ma’am (GSTYM) by faithtastic to get you in the mood. There is none 😊. In GSTYM, Lexa Woods is a tennis star on her way to the top of the rankings. During the Wimbledon tournament, however, an old injury threatens to throw…
Eliza Lentzski is also one of my favorite authors. Moreover, she seems like a very nice person although I don’t know her at all, except a little bit on social media. I suspect it’s because of how she writes. Her characters are not always easy but always so very decent and sweet, or at least nice. In Don’t Call Me Hero,…
Apparently, I’m in a nostalgic mood. Because I was recently thinking about this novel by Jennifer Fulton, originally published in 1993. I read it in the late 90’s and then read it a few more times. I thought it was such an impressive novel, not least because of the complex main characters. It is a book that is…
Della Street is one of my favorite XWP authors. She knows how to describe the Xena/Gabrielle dynamics so beautifully. And her stories are so romantic 🥰. Her story Resistance is a classic for me. Literally now because she wrote this in the late 90s. It’s a Conqueror story, a timeline in which Xena didn’t choose the light. And I like…
Thorne is a wonderful retelling by Anna Burke of The Beauty and The Beast. Sort of, because the beast is actually the beauty 😉. Rowan’s father steals a rose from ‘the Huntress’. The Huntress believes “a rose for a rose” is nothing short of fair. Rowan was given the rose as a gift from her father and…
