Review: Matrimonial Merriment (Valor and Doyle Book 7) by Nicky James
Rating: 3.75🌈 I had real trouble arriving at this rating. Matrimonial Merriment is the last Valor and Doyle book by Nicky James. It’s a 7 book series that I found incredibly strong and emotionally compelling at the start, only, imo, to chart a very strange path for the characters and their various storylines. This story has its strengths and its weaknesses, much like its characters. Quaid…

Review: Slay Ride (Saint Brothers Book 1) by Davidson King
Rating: 4.5🌈 I have to admit that early on, my thoughts were that Slay Ride was just one more story about a group of psycho revenge killing brothers, a trope gaining popularity in LGBTQIA romance. The elements haven’t varied enough, 5 brothers, killing, torture, etc, so that only one or two authors have made it really fascinating. But Slay Ride turns into something else that is side adjacent…

Review: The Hitman's Guide to Codenames and Ill-Gotten Gains (The Hitman's Guide, #5) by Alice Winters
Rating: 5🌈 I believe this is the last in The Hitman’s Guide series and if it is, it’s a fantastic way to see this series off. I laughed out loud, and at the end, I may have sniffled a bit, because Winters layered in some moving, emotional scenes of deep love and growth for retired hitman Leland and his now husband, Jackson, along with those of outrageous hilarity. But before we get to those…

Review: Black Flagged (A Lights Out Novel) by Emma Jaye
Rating: 3.75🌈 Black Flagged (A Lights Out Novel) by Emma Jaye is a book that had me waffling over the rating because Black Flagged is actually two different novels, one that’s a tad more successful than the other. Unfortunately, the better one doesn’t really have much of anything to do with racing but rather with past murders, current murder attempts, and the mercenary brotherhood, the orta,…
