Lesbian romance reviews updated most Fridays. Our sort of something for the weekend…
In my distressingly distant youth, before I had the pleasure of meeting the Long Tall Sheriff, I was in love with a closeted woman. Reading this book by Jae brought back some of the unhappiness and trauma of that period, and I would Not Recommend this for anyone who has had similar experiences. What occurs? … Continue reading Not the Marrying Kind by Jae

You now have all the information you will ever get about the personalities and characters of these women. Oh, except they like Chinese food and one of them used to have a cat. It's rare to find a … Continue reading By Design by J.A. Armstrong
After my wild enthusiasm for Lee Winter's The Brutal Truth, I decided to give another of her books a go. Big mistake! Or rather, big insight into how many attempts at the same plot and characters it takes before you hit the version that works. The similarities between The Red Files and the Brutal Truth … Continue reading The Red Files by Lee Winter
What has happened to Gerri Hill? Once a favourite author of mine, this is one of the rare books to make it onto our "don't bother" list.

Her next, and final role before her planned retirement from acting, is … Continue reading The Locket by Gerri Hill

In no … Continue reading No More Pretending by Bette Hawkins

In my mind, this series is totally named the "Love Doctors", not the rather dull "Rivers Community Romances". I enjoyed the first one so much I read it twice. The second one was good. The third … Continue reading Love After Hours by Radclyffe
Very odd book. This is essentially a short story with some fairly graphic sex, some conversation between our heroine and her friend, and virtually nothing in the way of chemistry between our lead character and her love interest. Our heroine has MS, which means she uses a wheelchair for her 'running' but is otherwise mobile … Continue reading Roll with Me by Elizabeth Andre
