Spotlight Indie Romance: Magic & Mayhem #urbanfantasy
The kick-@ss heroine is a staple of urban fantasy and paranormal romance, but often she is overshadowed by a bigger-and-badder hero. Not so in Jami Gray's Shadow's Edge, where Gavin is Raine's match but by no means superior. Their slow-burn romance adds dimension to the characters without slowing the fast-paced, suspenseful narrative. Raine's spent a lifetime hunting monsters,... Continue Reading →
Spotlight Indie Romance: Steampunk Fairytale Retelling #dystopian
I love genre-blending/genre-bending fiction that includes sci-fi or fantasy. Lindsey Pogue categorizes her Ruined Lands series as dystopian science-fiction since it takes place a century or so in the future. However, the societal behavior and technology are more consistent with Victorian-era steampunk fiction. A super intriguing spin on post-apocalyptic science fiction. Add a touch of 'earth magic', a romance... Continue Reading →
Spotlight Indie Romance: Orc Magic
There is an increasing trend in fantasy and paranormal romance to cast orcs as the heroes. In Krista Luna's Bound to the Orc Ranger, the big green guy with tusks is a deadly warrior and cinnamon-roll by turns. With a mix of action-adventure and rom-com, the story is engaging and creative. And who doesn't love a talking... Continue Reading →

Once upon a time, in something that loosely resembles Regency England, a duke rescued a damsel from a terrible fate. Except he's a mage and has two life long friends and all three of them get the girl. Until she is kidnapped. By evil fae. There's torture. And a dragon. Somehow, Minette Moreau makes it all work...

Spotlight Indie Romance: Star Cruising
It is cold in the northern hemisphere and--as winter drags on--many flee to warmer climates, often via a cruise ship. In the far future of Veronica Scott's The Sectors, those with means can take a luxury cruise between star systems. The most recent addition to the Star Cruise series, STAR CRUISE GHOST SHIP released, in my opinion, is the best so... Continue Reading →
Spotlight Indie Romance: Military Suspense
Most military suspense focuses on active military personnel. In K.M. Fawcett's spin on the trope, our hero is retired military, disabled in the line of duty. So few romances deal with main characters with disabilities, let alone the hero, but Dean definitely hits all the hero buttons. Lacey is great as the determined heroine, with... Continue Reading →
