  • The Queen’s Council: Rebel Rose Review

    What happens after happily ever after? That’s what this new series focuses on because while the Disney Princesses line are famous for the latter part, being a Princess, but that’s just a stepping stone. After all, most princesses are expected to promoted to queen by marriage or by their own rule. This series delves into…

  • Ranking The Union of the Rakes

    This regency romance has a special 80s twist as each novel takes homage from big screen classics like Flashdance, The Breakfast Club, and so on. I’ll confess I did not realize this until I read the Acknowledgement pages, and since the only 80s movies I’ve seen were Flashdance, and The Breakfast Club, I cannot tell…

  • 10 Things I Hate about Pinky Review

    Some might describe Pinky Kaur as “a temptuous bitch.” No, no one has. But she can be bull-headed, impulsive, and a provoker, always on a short fuse ready to fight for a worthy cause. And much like everyone’s favorite heroine, Kat from the movie 10 Things I Hate about You this has the case of…

Obviously, not the biggest priority for Mia’s family like Grandmere who is…
