The Ravenels, Book #6
Reviews of the rest of the Ravenel series: Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, Book 4, Book 5
Heat Factor: This is the most chill sex I think I’ve ever read
Character Chemistry: Heart eyes.
Plot: Antihero catches feelings for angel woman
Overall: I don’t think I’ve ever read a Kleypas with less drama, but it was extremely satisfying
Wallflowers, Book 4.5
Heat Factor: Get cozy on the rug in front of the fire heat level
Character Chemistry: Very solid, considering it’s a novella that also involves all four Wallflowers
Plot: I shouldn’t love you, you rogue, but I can’t help myself.
Overall: Very good for a snuggle with a blanket and a cuppa
Capitol Theater, Book #2.5
Heat Factor: Had me raising my eyebrows
Character Chemistry: Too short for enough development to buy it
Plot: Fake Relationship → Real Relationship
Overall: syrupy
Gamblers duology, Book #2
Heat Factor: Toe-curling
Character Chemistry: Mousy woman with steel spine brings worldly man low, and he’s totally into it
Plot: “We come from different worlds so I’m going to save you from yourself by refusing to be with you even though it’ll kill me to live without you.”
Overall: It’s basically a replacement for chocolate.
The Ravenels, Book 5
Reviews of previous books in the series: Book 1, Book 2, Book 3, Book 4
Heat Factor: It’s a slow warmup, but when it gets going, it really goes
Character Chemistry: It acts like hate to love, but it’s really just getting to know and like what you see in another person
Plot: Does she hate him? Is he not good enough for her? Does she face a threat? So many options here
Overall: I was looking forward to this one, and I was not disappointed
