I absolutely loved it. I wished it was longer...I wished I could delve more in the characters. There was such a contrast between the two major female characters that some more background would just have added more depth to it all.
The story was well structured. Reminded me of Harry Potter, that is magic as an everyday happening with an infrastructure to it. This time not a school but sort of a military force.
Liked the idea of combining mages and warriors, the ethereal with the brute forces. And obviously the romance, which was quite credible and sexy.
Honestly I couldn't get enough.
Can we have a sequel please of where the story finished? There can be many! Or a prequel?

Review Book: Hidden Truths
I was asked by the author to review this book. In this review, please bear in mind that I did not read the other two books preceding Hidden Truths so, much of the pathos and details I could only partially savour.
What I can presume is that this book is sort of an epilogue of a very intense and troubled relationship between the two women protagonist in the second world war period with all its atrocities. And from what I can guess, in the previous books our heroines had their personal stories laced in such barbarities but also graced with great acts of courage, love and patriotism.
Eva and Zoe have an incredible love forged through unspeakable events that only in this last book the details from behind the scenes emerge. This book comes through to me as the volume that brings healing to wounds both physical and physiological, individual and family wise and as a fresh start to many questions that were left unanswered.
So I would suggest to read the previous books if you would like to enjoy to the full the dramatic plot that unfolds in a very heart rendering saga.

Review Book: Because of Her
I
finished Because of Her, 24 hours ago and still I do not have the
courage to start reading another book for the fear of loosing the
feeling Ke Payne has evoked in me.
Tabitha
and Eden have lovingly crept under my skin and snuggly found a place
inside my heart to stay.
I
found the book real and authentic. Raw in its feelings as crudely
unprocessed, are those emotions that make us break from adolescents
to young adults, from rebellious teenagers to conscious bearers of
future generations.
Yes
it is a book I would recommend to any young lesbian out there (and not so young one too!). For
hurdles are made to be jumped and only in that leap for love and
through love, we can start a change that is the passport to a better
us, a better world...just because of her.

Review Book: Safe Passage
What
a delightful book. Kate Owen knows well how to weave a story that
captivates the reader's attention from the very start.
A
narrative which we live through the main character, Julianna
Delacroix, by being witness to a endearing story straddling two
different time periods with a common denominator.
An ancestor's murder
that paves the way to a family secret and an untold love tragically
cut short.
The
account is ably sprinkled with enrapturing details sure to elate your
curiosity, luscious romance with a beat and a lesbian sex scene
piquant to the right point (at least for me).
Well
done!

Book Review: The Beginning of Us
Coming
of age is always difficult. Becoming aware of one's sexuality is
always a battle of endorphins, thoughts and social structures.
Becoming aware that one's sexuality does not confine to those
“normal” social structures makes it more complicated.
Becoming
aware of one's homosexuality while falling in love with your
professor...well that drives the experience to over 9 magnitude
earthquake on Richter scale.
Such
turmoil is written as full-immersion diary after the events happened,
making the reader partake in a personal and touching prose.
Delicately written on a gushing river of feelings, this story
has all the naivety of first love whilst discovering the me through
the beginning of the us.

Christmas Dreams (Santa, Honey's Book Review)
Loved the humour and spicy sex sprinkled amongst the words of these three short Christmas romance stories.
A bit far fetched, at least for me, the speed with which people in these stories seem to all fall in love. But aren't we all entitled to dream a bit while we read, now and then, especially under the mistletoe?

A Seamless Concerto
I got this book as a freebie form Amazon. It is not my usual cup of tea but I enjoyed it.
I was curious to read a book written by three authors and I have to say I wasn't disappointed. A seamless concerto that interwinds perfectly.
It is a light read, with some hot detailed sexy parts & humorous phrases that just cuts through the pages of the book.
An all-ends-well story, ready to be read in cold winter days preferably nearing Christmas.
