Sarah Castille – Redemption Series Reading Order

By 1 Comment

<— This is one of THE funniest (yet super alpha-intense) romance MMA books I’ve ever read. Not a comedy-romance per se, but it’s got its hilarious moments that had me snorting with glee. Yep. One of my absolute favorite ones of the bunch (here’s my review – you’ll see. Total giggle-fest). 😛 And now, there are more, with another one on the way. YAY ME! YAY US!

LauraB: 59% in! I love it when I find myself giggling out loud. It means the characters are ‘real’ for me. I felt like spending the money because sometimes I NEED books with Alpha males and funny female leads. read more

Gina Maxwell – Fighting for Love Series Reading Order

By 4 Comments

For those of you that are into the MMA fighter romance books (like me!!), here one that’s already 3 books in (book #3 was just released a week or so ago)! I read #1 and enjoyed it (here’s my review), and I hear #2 is really good as well. These have been touted as great “in between” reads, because while there is romance and steam and a touch of angst, none of it goes too overboard.

Kristina: Seducing Cinderella by Gina Maxwell… yummy quick read. MMA fighter makes a deal with best friend’s younger sister to help her become a seductress & win the heart of a Dr. she’s been pining for at work if she helps him recover in time for his major fight.. hmmmm.. yeah I’ll leave it at that.. *droool* lol.. Nothing too heavy & great inbetween read =) read more

Not really a review, but a “to be finished” later… “Fighting for Irish” by Gina L. Maxwell

By 19 Comments

Just a quick update on one of my latest reads that I announced I’d be reading on Friday (with many of you reading with me).

There are some books that, in theory, have everything I want (good solid writing, an extra “Maryse-like” hero ;), an issue to overcome, misunderstandings, steam, etc…) and yet despite that, I find myself struggling to connect. I can’t pinpoint it exactly, but I just know, at a certain point, I need to put it down and go onto something else. And usually I don’t officially review those, I just make a note on my “reading progress” page, instead. read more

Kresley Cole – The Game Maker (The Professional) Series Reading Order

By 8 Comments

One of my favorite authors from my “paranormal” days (Kresley Cole), is writing a er… contemporary romance? And by “contemporary romance” I mean a hero (or is he an anti-hero?) Russian Mafia enforcer/ex MMA-fighter bad boy/bad guy series!

Tee hee!! Could she have chose a lot of more “up my alley” qualities in a “bad guy” book hero? 😉 Book #1 is out, and two more to come in just a few weeks!

Thank you so much Tracie, for bringing this one to my attention! read more
