Letting Go the first book in the Surrender Trilogy was my first Maya Banks novel and my first foray into the world of Dominance and Submission. Mini review: Touching, sensual and edgy. Letting Go was a passionate and heated romance that was hindered by secondary characters.

The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon
I was immediately drawn to the synopsis for The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon. It shares a tale about a mother and daughter bond, loss, grief and wishes that should never be granted. A farm shrouded with a tragic history, a superstitious rural community, and a mother with secrets all added to this atmospheric tale. Mini review: A spine-tingling, hair raising thriller. McMahon held me captive and made me shiver.
I See London by Chanel Cleeton
I See London is the debut novel for author Chanel Cleeton and the first in the, I See London series, a new adult contemporary romance. A coming of age novel with friendship, firsts and romance this proved to be an interesting tale. Mini review: Romance, friendship, parties and exploration abroad made this a fun read.
Must Love Dukes by Elizabeth Michels
Must Love Dukes is the debut novel of author Elizabeth Michels and the first in the Tricks of the Ton trilogy. This was a delightful Regency era romance that made me giggle and swoon to my HEA. Mini review: Humorous, swoon-worthy and well paced with colorful characters that left me anxious for more by this author.

Alienated is the first novel in author Melissa Lander’s Alienated trilogy. I was drawn to the beautiful cover and concept of aliens. It delivered a light entertaining romance with the potential for greatness. Mini review: Fast past with interesting concepts and a solid start to the trilogy.
