About Nikki R

SAHM of 2, happily married bookworm, blogger and aspiring author. If I could read/write all day, every day, I would. Luckily I have a very understanding, and patient, husband who lets me get away with it as much as possible. Now if only the kids would understand my obsession, and the house would clean itself, then I'd be all set.

Here are my most recent posts

Hunter of Shadows by Nancy Gideon

3 May 2012 Nikki R 0

I’ve been half dreading, half anxiously waiting to read Hunter of Shadows by Nancy Gideon.  A book in the Moonlight series without Max and Charlotte, don’t you do that to me!  Who wants Silas and Nica?? Not me, I want Max and Charlotte!  I was ready to send off a […]

The Wolf Who Loved Me by Lydia Dare

28 April 2012 Nikki R 0

I had the pleasure of finding Lydia Dare’s Regency Vampire Trilogy series last year.   It had three elements that I love: historical romance, werewolves and vampires.  I fell in love and bought every book of this series and Dare’s the Westford Wolves series.  I just now got back into this […]

When Darkness Comes by Alexandra Ivy

27 April 2012 Nikki R 0

Anytime I get a new vampire book in my hands, I’m giddy with glee.  I’m a vamp girl.  Jackie assured me I’d love Alexandra Ivy’s Guardian of Eternity series and sent all she had my way.  I’ve FINALLY gotten to her first book, When Darkness Comes, and while I can’t […]

Left Hand Magic by Nancy A. Collins

31 March 2012 Nikki R 0

After just finishing Nancy A Collins Right Hand Magic, I wasn’t all that excited to read the next book in the Golgotham series, Left Hand Magic, but I gave it a try anyway.  It was easier yet harder to read this book. Since I knew what to expect, it meant […]

JEnge-Wolf Age

The Wolf Age by James Enge

30 March 2012 Nikki R 1

Magic, werewolves, adventure…I thought that was a good combination, but not this time.  I tried  to give The Wolf Age by James Enge (#3 in the Morlock Ambrosius series) a chance, I made it all the way to page 362 (there are 451 pages) before I tossed my hands in […]

Blood and Bullets by James R. Tuck

17 February 2012 Nikki R 5

I’m starting this review before I’ve finished Blood and Bullets, because I am enjoying it THAT much.  To say you won’t be disappointed if you pick up this book is an understatement. He lives to kill monsters. He keeps his city safe. And his silver hollow-points and back-from-the-dead abilities help […]

Stud by Cheryl Brooks

21 January 2012 Nikki R 1

I was told this was an interesting read and although Stud is the #8 book in the Cat Star Chronicles by Cheryl Brooks, I decided to give it a shot.  I wasn’t disappointed….exactly. Stud is eighth in the hugely popular Cat Star Chronicles, the sexy paranormal romance series featuring heroes […]

That Thing at the Zoo by James R. Tuck

27 December 2011 Nikki R 5

After the string of not so great books I’ve had, I was afraid That Thing at the Zoo by James Tuck would be another to add to my give away pile.  I’m happy to announce, I was wrong about the book and it will be joining my expanding library. Right […]

Night Reigns by Diane Duvall

3 December 2011 Nikki R 0

Vampires, check.  Immortals who aren’t vampires but slay vampires and are bad ass fighters, check.  One tough female lead who can slaughter vamps with little effort, check.  Romance with a hottie Immortal, check.  Yup we are all on board in Night Reigns by Dianne Duvall. Ami isn’t much for trusting […]

House Name by Michelle West

19 November 2011 Nikki R 1

I was digging through my big box of books to review and saw House Name by Michelle West, which is the third book in The House War series.  I know you aren’t supposed to judge a book by its cover but this cover is kinda cool and it’s why I chose […]
