Under Loch and Key by Lana Ferguson
Queen B’s Decree: A monster romance where one of the main characters is the Loch Ness Monster? OF COURSE I’m gonna read it. This book was the perfect mix of ridiculousness, hot chemistry, romance, and true emotional depth. Key is in Scotland to spread her father’s ashes (and meet her estranged grandparents for the first […]
Phantasma by Kaylie Smith
Queen B’s Decree: Phantasma was my kind of fantasy/paranormal story. The story goes from zero to sixty in like two seconds and bam, shit goes down. Ophelia participates in the Wicked Games, and those are basically the paranormal version of the Hunger Games mixed the Dante’s Inferno and the seven circles of Hell. I ✨ate✨ […]
Dating & Dismemberment by A.L. Brody
Queen B’s Decree: I never thought I’d be smiling so much during a creepy monster story, but Dating and Dismemberment was delightful. Darla is the Duchess of Death and haunts the camp near her forest, when she develops some ennui, feeling bored with hunting humans. After a sabbatical, a new monster is in town to […]
A Devil in Every Dark Corner by Amanda Braun Boe
Queen B’s Decree: A Devil in Every Dark Corner was simultaneously funny, dark, morbid, and creepy and I couldn’t put it down. You know, it reminds me of the Scream movies a bit: some gore, some death, funny one-liners, and characters you root for. I loved Imogen; she wanted to get away from the paranormal […]
Bombshell by Calliope Stewart
Queen B’s Decree: I was so into the first in the series, Dragonfly and I’ve been interested in this pairing since we first met them. And I still really loved Dallan. I enjoyed his protectiveness, how he takes care of all his employees (essentially his family!), his patience…and also face tentacles. But I had a […]
Howl by Meg Alivien
Queen B’s Decree: Cozy werewolf book with a fated mate vibe? And a cat? And a coffee snob? Is there anything in this book I don’t like?? *the devil on my shoulder whispers friends-to-lovers trope* I kid, but in reality the friends-to-lovers trope was done very well here. Raegan and Jamie were legitimately best friends […]
Deja Brew by Celestine Martin
Queen B’s Decree: Deja Brew had potential but didn’t really deliver. Sirena was difficult to relate to. She basically has a Groundhog Day-esque month as a do-over and is reliving the month of October. She wants to get her magic-y witchy cooking mojo back and somehow that includes Gus, an ex-reality star magician trying to […]
The Marriage Hex by Sarah Blue
Queen B’s Decree: This may be my favorite of Sarah’s books. It’s got everything I love. The Marriage Hex was hilarious (can I get an entire book from Thorin’s POV plz), sexy, fun, and with enough mystery or suspense to keep you hooked. The characters are all so well-written, I got so invested in attaining […]
Forgotten Ashes by Kathryn Covens
Queen B’s Decree: Forgotten Ashes has this nostalgic feel for me. Shifters, magical mystery, and a cliffhanger that leaves me wanting more. It’s like the author can read my mind and know all my favorite things (spoiler alert: she can). Briar is such a strong FMC. She’s harboring a secret, one that could be the […]
