A new Saturday post where you can share with us what you are currently (or just finished) reading and I will share my brief thoughts on books that I read during the previous week.
January 15th - 21st:
The List by Tawna Fenske
![]() |
Kindle | NOOK Goodreads |
eARC
Rating = 3.5 Stars
- Soil scientist heroine
- Tech millionaire hero
- Heroine told fake, wild stories about her sex life (aka, The List)
- They decide to work on crossing the items off her "fucket" list
- Had some minor issues with it but over all it was fun
Favorite quote:
Forever Your Earl by Eva Leigh
![]() |
Kindle | NOOK Audio Goodreads |
Audiobook from Overdrive
Narrator = Carmen Rose
Narration = 4 Stars
Rating = 4 Stars
- Heroine is the owner and editor of a newspaper (mostly gossip, but high end gossip)
- Hero is an Earl (obviously)
- Hero seeks heroine's help: write about his rakish ways
- He wants the ton's yes to be on him that way while he looks for his friend
- Great banter and overall writing
- Good chemistry -- heroine is no meek virgin (yay!)
- LOVED the strip limerick scene
- They take turns writing limericks and each round = loss of clothing
- Narrator was good, would definitely try another from her
- Will be continuing this series
- THAT COVER THO is 😍😍😍😍😍
Favorite quote:
Privilege had a way of holding the world at bay.
*Um, yeah, that hits home considering our current situation....
Be My Fantasy by Alisha Rai
eBook
![]() |
Kindle | NOOK Goodreads |
- First in a two part serial so there's not a HEA when this one ends
- Hero works for heroine's father
- They have a past but it never really went far
- They thought the other was vanilla and tame
- In reality their fantasies match up very, very nicely
- Heroine is all about claiming her sexuality (even if only in private -- still, yay for agency!)
- Some sexy role playing
- Loved seeing a hint of Akira in this one but now I want to do a reread, damn it!
- Find all the quotes I shared on Twitter
Favorite quote:
She just couldn't be only Elizabeth, tucked into that tiny box. She'd always wondered if that made her an anomaly. How could she want dirty, filthy things and a serene, pretty life? Weren't you supposed to want one or the other?
No. That was dumb, she'd learned. Women could want many things. And he was a dick to make her feel otherwise.
Stay My Fantasy by Alisha Rai
![]() |
Kindle | NOOK Goodreads |
eBook
Rating = 4 Stars
- Conclusion to their story -- HEA!
- A bit of voyeurism fun
- Conflict as heroine believes that hero is only with her to get a promotion (he's not -- at all)
- Leads to hero showing her how wrong that is
- Grand gesture is truly a grand gesture
- A sexy epilogue -- more role playing
- Overall: Enjoyed this duology but it is a very quick story and I would have loved to see it fleshed out more into one longer novel or something
- Love Rai's writing and yes, I'll be back for more
- Find all the quotes I shared on Twitter
