Reviews Dungeons and Dating, Book #1 & Book #2
Heat Factor: Three detailed encounters in the last chunk of the book—they have a lot of pining to get through first

The Rajes, #4
Reviews of The Rajes, Book #1, Book #2, and Book #3
Heat Factor: They have a lot of sex, but it’s almost entirely fade to black.
Character Chemistry: They critique each other out of love.
Plot: They’re working together to make the world a better place, but their families would have a conniption if they dated.
Overall: A nice finish to a solid series.
Heat Factor: Chapter 1: Glory Hole. Chapter 2: Phone sex. Chapter 3: Banging on his desk.
Character Chemistry: She takes care of him, he takes care of her.
Plot: Danielle uses anonymous sex as a stress release. Except this time, it wasn’t anonymous. It was her boss.
Overall: Very sexy with a nice message, but you must be prepared for a heroine with baggage to work through
The Laneways, Book #2
Heat Factor: In the first chunk, there’s one chaste kiss and one toe-curling kiss
Character Chemistry: Butterflies
Plot: Toxic Family + Corporate Shenanigans + Astrology + Chocolate
Overall: I struggled through the first third before giving up
Bishop Brothers, Book #3
Review of Bishop Brothers #1, Bishop Brothers #2
Heat Factor: The sex is very complicated on account of the power dynamics and the lies
Character Chemistry: I bought it
Plot: Emma is a plant in Connor’s office, so she’s a lying liar. Connor is just a billionaire trying not to bone his employee and failing. Can you guess what happens next?
Overall: My HR brain was screaming, but also somehow I was shockingly sympathetic to these protagonists.
