If you're triggered by the word rape, then stop reading this. This story is all about rape. The word features, I would guess, at least 200 times. The rape happens, the rapist is caught and convicted and the victim eventually recovers enough to have a relationship, and of course a great orgasm! It's very much … Continue reading Conflict of Interest by Jae

Kick Back by KJ
Another book by KJ! We liked her last one, Coming Home. Again set in Melbourne, this time we visit another side to the city, the women's AFL. That's Australian Rules Football for those who don't know. It's a heavy-impact, fast, sweaty team sport played outdoors in skimpy outfits. Think lots of high kicks and jumping, … Continue reading Kick Back by KJ
Bend For Me by Jessica Yeh
Despite its awful, snigger-worthy title, this book is not a shag-at-first-sight-and-all-the-rest-of-the-time-too story. It could be more literally titled In Which The Artist And The Yoga Teacher Sort Their Shit Out. Our heroines are both in their mid-to-late twenties and both are old enough to have lived through some Shit that really wants Sorting Out. Neither … Continue reading Bend For Me by Jessica Yeh
The Haunting of Heatherhurst Hall by Sebastian Nothwell
This 'historic' (Victorian?) novel opens with our orphaned American heroine choking back sobs of distress at her ex-girlfriend's wedding. A pair of lovely young English aristocrats (brother and sister) help her blow her nose. Friendship ensues. Within a ridiculously short space of time, the brother proposes.

Love all by Rachel Spangler
I'm a bit of a tennis fan, so when this popped up on my Kindle recommendations just a day or two after Andy Murray announced his imminent retirement, and I was lying in bed with a cold in need of some comforting fluff, I didn't need to think twice. Tennis Mom is a powerful, black … Continue reading Love all by Rachel Spangler
Ask Me Again by E J Noyes
This much-anticipated sequel to the brilliant Ask, Tell, picks up shortly after the first book finished. The Major surgeon Bec and the Captain surgeon Sabine have got together despite the outrageous difficulties of the US Army's 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy. Bec has left the army to become a civilian surgeon. Sabine has had to … Continue reading Ask Me Again by E J Noyes
Being Hers by Anna Stone
I hesitated to write this review because I am the first to admit this is not a genre I'm familiar with. I'm not even completely sure what this genre is correctly called. It's lesbian romance, but there is dominance and submission and handcuffs and whips. Is this S&M? Is this bondage? Are those the same … Continue reading Being Hers by Anna Stone
Paper Love by Jae
Set in Jae's own Germany, the location is probably the most interesting thing about this book. Uh oh! Woman A is a hotshot business consultant who quits her job after being passed over for all the cool projects by her sexist workplace. Woman B is the assistant of Woman A's uncle, helping to run his … Continue reading Paper Love by Jae
