Carmilla - The web series Season 1 - Co-created by Jordan Hall , Steph Ouaknine and Jay Bennett Laughter will have it’s sacrifice This is a guilty pleasure of mine. Don’t get your hopes up too high - this is a low budget web series, but darn it’s good....
Perfect Rythm, Jae, YLVA Perfect Rhythm By Jae When love strikes without lust 5/5 So yeah. I gave it a 5/5. I would even give a 6/5. I want it in paperback. I need it. I loved it that much. Plotwise, PERFECT RHYTHM does not bring anything new to the genre,...

The Wrong McElroy By KL HUGHES Who doesn’t like a nice Rom-Com? You? Well pass your way then, neither this review or the book is for you then. Boom time save! For my part, I enjoy every now and then a cheesy Rom-Com, especially when it’s a fake dating...
1st Edition Cover The Roommate Arrangement By Jae Or how to use tropes Jae is an author that does not need an introduction anymore in the lesfic microcosm. The quality of her writing is well established, no one could argue with that. The Roommate Arrangement...
Pot Luck www.potluckwebseries.com A revelation Must Watch. Seriously. You must. I started it out of boredom. It won me over so fast, and so hard. Quality queer representation is so rare that, well, we try and accept about anything remotely queer for crumble...
Sweat (Moving On #2) By Adan Ramie A stand alone into a series For full disclosure, I did not read the first book of the Moving On series. Nor did I read any other books by Adan Ramie. That being said. Here’s my review. The whole point of this book (and...
Fake It Till You Make It : A User’s Guide M. Ullrich A refreshing proposal This book has an interesting proposal. Many Queer people have to lie, to pretend being something/someone they are not - cis and straight- in order to keep their jobs and live their...
Definite Possibility (Bay West Series #3) by Maggie Cummings Definite intolerance This book was a big disappointment. I had high hopes for a such highly-praised series. I wanted to love it and I didn’t, but let's start with the good aspects before highlighting...
Blurred Lines (Cops&Docs1) Crossing Lines (Cops&Docs2) KD Williamson The 2 that should have been 1 Blurred Lines & Crossing Lines are a single story split between 2 novels. It took me a while to figure out how I would review both of those books separately...
Rescue Me By Michelle Teichman Truly Canadian This is the first Canadian-based story that really feels like everything-Canada. Speech patterns, words choices, descriptions, everything was on spot on - without conforming to the maple-syrup buck-hunter...
Between the Line By KD Williamson New Orleans, post-Katrina. One psychiatrist MD, one beat cop. Written by KD Williamson -the author behind BAM 1 . Do I really need to give you more information before you rush out to buy it? Still here? I’ll guess I’ll...
Book series The Chronicles of Alsea by Fletcher DeLancey A Journey Bigger Than Life When I first heard about The Chronicles of Alsea , I was less than convinced. Yet they kept praising it. "You must read it" they said, "It's the best Sci-Fi book series...
Journey’s End (Flight Series Book3) A.E. Radley Noooo I don’t wanna it to end! Journey’s End , as the title suggests, is the conclusion of the adventure of the family love story. * Grunt* To me it felt anything but time for the end. Probably because I...
Dear Taylor (Book 1 - Letters to War) by E ija Jimenez Unexpected Bond Dear Taylor is one of my all-time favorite books. Fair warning, bring out the tissues, you will need it. This story is an emotional rollercoaster. It can and will leave you scattered...
Carmilla By Sheridan LeFanu Dracula, but older and lesbian Carmilla is a gothic novella published for the first time in 1872 - 26 years before Bram Stoker’s Dracula. When I heard about the book, I knew I had to have it. I mean, come on, lesbian vampire...
Little Dip - Garoul series Book 5 - By Gill McKnight The beginning I have not read any other book in the Garoul Series and will so be reviewing this book as a stand-alone while trying to give it context. Cant it be read as a stand alone? Yes. Does it...
Pink KD Williamson A path better walked alone Wow. This is a book I’ll probably read again. Yes, it is that good, and I feel like one read is not enough to get all the subtlety of the story. Pink is the story of Shawnna “Shawn” Green and let’s be real,...
Vellmar the Blade (Book #5 The Chronicles of Alsea) By Fletcher DeLancey Who is the real hero? The narrative style in VELLMAR THE BLADE is extremely different from the other books of the series. The chapters alternate between two timelines, the present...
Outcaste By Fletcher DeLancey The road to hell is paved with good intentions I was eager and anxious to read the new Chronicles of Alsea - a series dear to my heart. I can’t say that it is my favorite. I can’t even say that I loved it. I like it, that...
The Art of Us by KL Hughes Another soulmate story The Art Of Us is a romantic drama - I am in two minds about whether or not I liked it. I guess I am lukewarm about it because it uses the soulmate/true love trope that I don’t particularly love. I could...
Four Steps By Wendy Hudson Clever title My expectations were pretty high for this book and mostly delivered I was under the impression that Four Steps was well liked for the quality of the crime-mystery intrigue - while the book was good and well done,...
The Brutal Truth By Lee Winter A free psychotherapy lesson Wow! I didn't think a romance could swallow me like that, even less, one using the Ice Queen and May/December tropes. It was a page-turner. The writing style is just so beautiful that wraps you...
OUT Claire Highton-Stevenson A story about luck The character of Michelle charmed me. Their is something so true about her, about her doubts and her fragility, she is almost the incarnation of every awakening not-straight person. OUT is definitely a love...
The Music & The Mirror Lola Keeley Center Stage but with women loving women So better! Keeley ace her literary debut. The Music & The Mirror is a delight from prologue to epilogue. The reader dive into a very hermetic world: Classical Dance. If you thought...
