Review: Black Rook by Kelly Meade

Posted 18 July, 2014 by Lori @ Romancing the Dark Side in Reviews / 12 Comments

Kelly Meade has solidified my love of werewolves with her refreshing new alphas of Cornerstone, the McQueens are beyond SWOON-WORTHY! Kelly Meade has definitely changed the game with her new world of werewolves. I’ve read plenty of books with werewolves, they’re my second favorite supe, but I haven’t come across anything like this fascinating world of loup garou and magic Meade’s created. World building can sometimes overpower a “first in a series” book, but I found myself devouring every detail […]

DNF Review: Ghouls Rush In by H.P. Mallory

Posted 24 June, 2014 by Lori @ Romancing the Dark Side in Reviews / 14 Comments

I’ll start off this review by saying that I very rarely mark a book DNF, I think I’ve only done it twice before this book so that says a lot. H.P. Mallory is not a new to me author, I’ve read most of the books in her Dulcie O’ Neil series. She tends to write lighter paranormal romances with plenty of humor which I enjoy reading from time to time. I didn’t love every book in that series but was […]

{Blog Tour} Review: See You in Hell by Demelza Carlton + Giveaway

Posted 21 May, 2014 by Lori @ Romancing the Dark Side in Blog Tour, Giveaways, Reviews / 5 Comments

A humorous tale of an angel who gets a less than heavenly assignment and unexpectedly finds romance with the Lord of Hell! SEE YOU IN HELL is a light and fun read that’s two parts office satire and one part paranormal romance. Set in a corporate environment, it’s a unique premise to the usual angel vs. demons with tons of sexual innuendos and plenty of wit. Anyone who’s ever worked in an office can identify with Carlton’s parody of HELL! […]

{Blog Tour} Mini Review: Alabaster Nights by Elle J Rossi

Posted 13 May, 2014 by Lori @ Romancing the Dark Side in Blog Tour, Mini Review, Reviews / 6 Comments

Sexy Irish vampire meets his match in a smart-mouthed supernatural huntress! ALABASTER NIGHTS is a short but fantastic introduction to Ms. Rossi’s characters Josie and Keller of The Josie Hawk Chronicles and tells the story of how they initially met. Told by alternate POVs, we get a feel for the hero and heroine’s distinct personalities through Ms. Rossi’s great character development. I’m not always a fan of dual narratives (this book includes third and first person), but in this […]

Review: Ember X by Jessica Sorensen

Posted 8 April, 2014 by Lori @ Romancing the Dark Side in Reviews / 8 Comments

Loved the premise but was a little frustrated by the characters! I’ll start my review by saying this is my first book by the author and I don’t really read too much of the New Adult or Young Adult genres, so bear with me if my review seems a little critical. EMBER X is a revamped and “uncut” NA version of the author’s original YA title. Had I realized this before reading it I would have prepared myself for some […]
