Four stars:
Pets of Park Avenue by Stefanie London (2022) is the second book in the Pets of Park Avenue series. Scout Myers works for Paws in the City and is trying to save up the money to take custody of her much younger sister. Her grandparents, though, feel she isn't up to the task especially since she got married on a whim in Las Vegas some years back.

I picked this up because both narrators are fantastic, but had way more fun with this than I thought I would! City of Thorns, by C.N. Crawford. https://share.libbyapp.com/title/9887545 #Books #Romance #RomanceLandia
Once again, I find myself at ods with Goodreads and not just because Gabriel Michael is the voice of the love interest, but I had loads of fun with this book! Even after completing the book, absolutely none of the good reads reviews made any sense to me whatsoever. Give this a try if you want a very lighthearted, comedic, paranormal romance with a awkward protagonist trying to solve the death of her mother, a extremely deliciously cute and witty deamon that tries to be brooding, and a lot of psychology humor. https://share.libbyapp.com/title/9887545 #Romance #RomanceLandia #Audiobook #Audiobooks

Finn - The Silk Rope Masters, 6
https://www.evernightpublishing.com/finn-by-suzy-shearer/
Claire Reynolds, 55, never believed in soul mates, or love at first sight, until she literally ran into Finn O’Malley, 55. Something happened—something primeval, something like destiny calling, as they stared at each other.
A ‘happy ever after’ was theirs for the taking—and they grabbed it joyfully with both hands.
Mysterious floral gifts. A hidden agenda. A faux saviour. A watcher who finally acts. An act that intends death to Finn. An act that neither Finn or Claire may survive.
Be Warned: BDSM, anal sex, sex toys, public exhibition

It occurs to me that I haven't been talking up the audiobooks I've narrated in a while. Other more urgent projects are at the front of the queue at the moment and there are only so many hours in the day.
But! That said, if you ever have questions about the books I've narrated or you'd like a free review copy (I always need reviewers), ask away!
Also, if you're curious about my voice, there are free samples of all the books in their store listings, too.

reading recommendations wanted:
I'm looking for a romance author who is at least queer friendly (and some queer relationships!) I don't really want a series. I want the beach read kind of books where there's a main thread but also a friend thread and maybe even a few others. It all comes out happy in the end, and no one is annoyingly perfect. Contemporary setting would be nice, but not required.
(Having read _22_ books by Jill Mansell in the last 6 years, I think I have binged her stuff as hard as a I want to - I specifically want something similar but more queer)
"This is making my heart beat faster, almost like a… like a warning. As if something bad is about to happen.” My eyes widened.
“Yeah. That’s anxiety. Are you feeling anxious for my safety, or are you worried you’ll be caught out?"
His gaze shuttered. “Don’t be ridiculous. I’m a lethal four-hundred-year-old demon of chaos, imbued with godlike powers. I fear nothing.”
This is so funny and cute!
My only head shake, was about the D Day jokes but even so, this is so fucking fun!
Tried tackling the grumpy and sunshine trope but I keep making my grumpy hero two grumpy, so much so that even I hate him as an author. How do others keep the balance? Nothing I am doing regarding this trope seems natural. It feels like I’m swinging a hammer way too far to the left, and then when I try and correct it, it goes way too far the other way. Are there like romance writing exercises you did to help you flush out these tropes? #AmWriting #Romance #RomanceLandia
