Tentacles & No Thanks
Honeysuckles by January Rayne wasn’t my cup of tea. I wasn’t crazy about the plot/creature, but from a writing perspective, it was well written. The spice was good (until the author reminded us that his dick was purple and red with suckers. Send help. This image won’t leave my brain.)

Soft Curves & Sharp Arrows
Between Wrath & Mercy was probably one of my favorite Romantasy novels as an adult. While it is a long read, I was captivated by the plot and the world-building. Jess Wisecup keeps you engaged by not revealing the character’s past all at once; you only get snippets of it throughout.
