I have another review at AudioGals today – The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black, narrated by Christine Lakin. I went a bit outside my usual reading zone with this one and I’m so glad I did. There are layers and subtext and beautiful prose as well as a great story with excellent worldbuilding. I recommend.
with a review of the third book in Jessica Sims’ Midnight Liaisons series, Must Love Fangs, narrated by Leah Mallach. I liked it but there was one thing that made me roll my eyes. Go here to see what it was.
Why I read it: The author sent me a copy her latest anthology of short stories, for review. I think it takes special talent to write short (not a skill of mine really!) and sometimes, a story of only a few pages is just the ticket when I am pressed for time, having trouble deciding what to read next or I’m just feeling flighty.
What it’s about: (from Goodreads) What do a graffiti artist, a nerdy virgin, a lunar cop, a handsome devil, a sexy boater, a disgraced aristocrat and a misbehaving valet all have in common? Bestselling gay romance author Josephine Myles, of course! In this collection of nine short stories you’ll find all these characters coming together (quite literally sometimes).
The collection mingles contemporary erotica with a hint of a happy future with historical, paranormal and futuristic kinky romance. There are even a couple of stories that are sweet romance. One thing you can be sure of, though: the blokes in these stories will always get their man!
Buckle up for Jo’s British sense of humour and fun, and don’t be surprised if there’s sex in the potting shed, because with Jo, anything can happen.
NB: all these stories have been previously published in anthologies or on the author’s website.
Blooming Marvellous This delightful story is about graffiti artist, Ky, completing community service who meets up with newcomer, James, a clean cut professional type who had an embarrassing incident with a policeman while under the influence and thus finds himself planting flowers in the middle of a roundabout. On the surface the pair have little in common but looks can be deceiving. It has an appropriately hopeful ending for the story length and I liked it quite a bit. And Ky could totally be the guy on the cover.
