Her brother was killed due to gang violence. Beatriz wants to be loyal to her gang but knows she has no future if […]
Review: This book was such an enjoyable read. Even though I started the series in the middle I didn’t feel lost or confused as I read. I like the main characters Roarke and Annabel and the whole forbidden love aspect. They have good chemistry and I loved the banter between the couple as well. I enjoyed reading about the secondary […]

Review As a fan of the t.v. show “Doogie Hoswer, M.D”, I was excited to read this book. Saira is an Oncologist working with children that have cancer. Not going to lie, this was a tough subject for me to read at times. I had a good friend that passed away from cancer and reading about kids with this […]
Review In this book we are introduced to a 25 year old, Queenie Jenkins who is the middle of a crisis. Her long term boyfriend wants a break and from there things go downhill. I really liked Queenie’s character but at times I wanted to shake some sense into her but then I had to remember she’s 25 and bound […]
Review This was a nice anthology that features diverse characters. We had a few f/f stories and a transgender story that was written by a transgender author. As a reader of color inclusion is very important to me. I wish I had a book like this when I was teenager but as an adult I still appreciated this story and […]

The stigma. The day to day. What the future will bring? The ups and downs of it all. Emoni was a very refreshing character and I loved […]
Review Olive has spent her whole life being the “unlucky” twin. Nothing seems to go her way and if it wasn’t for bad luck she wouldn’t have any luck at all. Olive and Ethan are forced to spend their siblings honeymoon together or it will go to waste. Even though this isn’t ideal they are both too petty to let […]
Review: Jack meets Kate at a party. They hit it off and have four wonderful months before she dies. Jack is given an opportunity to go back in time and change events. So I did like the way the story started but at times I find the story to be long and drawn out. Even repetitive at times. A large […]
Review: I was really excited to see that we would be getting about Reggie. For those that don’t know, Reggie is Portia’s twin sister and you can read about Portia in A Duke by Default. I liked the fact that even though they are twins, they are so different. Reggie is a full time blogger, content creator and geek. I […]
