Review: Seal My Fate - Book #3 The Oxford Legacy - Roxy Sloane - April 2025 There’s something wonderfully satisfying about reaching the final book in a trilogy you’ve been invested in, and Seal My Fate by Roxy Sloane definitely delivers that dramatic, heart-thumping finale.

At the heart of the story is Tessa, who is finally experiencing the joy she thought she had lost forever , her sister Wren is alive.

He loves Tessa, but helping her and Wren means potenti...

Review: Love in the Time of Serial Killers - Alicia Thompson

Review: Love in the Time of Serial Killers - Alicia Thompson - August 2022 For the past four months, I have tried for 2023 to try and make a dent in my bookshelf as it was starting to pile up and I have been neglecting it and reading more ebooks. I decided that this year was my goal to stop this and go back to reading more print books. I have had a lot of fun rediscovering the books, especially in the Winter season as I get home, have dinner and then curl up with my books as my partner goes to work. Love in the Time of Serial Killers caught my attention with the "true crime" aspect. I did enjoy this book, but again at the same time felt a little disappointed as the main female for someone who loves true crime annoyed me. I get that she is a geekish introvert and studying for her Ph.D. but seriously are all academics like this? Do I come across this way, I sure hope not. As someone who loves true crime, I did love the references and the books and it did get me thinking about ...

They’re a Match by Chloe Liese blitz with Xpresso Book Tours.

Image
They’re a Match Chloe Liese (Tough Love #3) Publication date: August 12th 2019 Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense One blazing relational bond formed by two fiery lovers. And a new element just joined the formula. Chemistry calls it covalence. Shakespeare named it the “marriage of true minds.” Historically speaking, Nairne never liked the impractical notion of marriage, and Zed never thought he’d live to see the day when tying the knot was even an option. After a decade of entanglement in the mafia, Zed’s now free to play the game he loves and love the woman who owns his heart. Problem is, the spitfire’s been a loner her whole life. Independent, self-reliant, and driven. And she wants nothing to do with marriage, since statistically it fails more than it succeeds, which to her scientific mind is the universally acknowledged definition of an experimental bust. But the elemental pull toward matrimony between the sexy scientist and her dark and handsome soccer star is stronger th...
