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

The Griffin’s Flight by K.J. Taylor

8 November 2011 Nikki R 0

I love mythology, I love history, but The Griffin’s Flight by K.J. Taylor kicked my butt and took me weeks to read.  It really was a love/hate situation.  I told Jackie, it’s like watching Dancing with Wolves, the movie was good but good gravy it was long and all of […]

Bound by Moonlight by Nancy Gideon

29 September 2011 Nikki R 4

Dear Ms. Gideon, I’d like to announce my complaint.  You made me fall in love with two characters, Max and Cee Cee, and the next book in the Moonlight series isn’t about them, it’s about someone else.  I’m shell shocked.  I’m already missing these two immensely.  Tell me it won’t […]

Captured by Moonlight Nancy Gideon

26 September 2011 Nikki R 1

If I could, I’d shove Captured by Moonlight by Nancy Gideon (and the others in the Moonlight series) at you right now and stand by as you read them.  I’d be tapping my foot, telling you to hurry it up because we HAVE to talk about them right now.  Sadly […]

The Dark Griffin by K.J. Taylor

8 September 2011 Nikki R 0

When I read the synopsis for The Dark Griffin, I have to admit, I wasn’t all that excited.  I’m a history nut, and so I’m also very interested in mythology, but most of the time mythology in fiction, for me anyway, ends up being a big mess.  However, while I […]

Lover Avenged by J.R. Ward

18 August 2011 Nikki R 2

‘The king must die’ is the first sentence in Lover Avenged by J.R. Ward.  I have to say that when I read that sentence I said ‘oh hell no’ out loud to no one.  That sentence alone, told me this book was going to be major….and I wasn’t wrong. Caldwell, […]

Chased by Moonlight by N. Gideon

17 August 2011 Nikki R 2

I am happy to say I’ve found a new love, Nancy Gideon’s Moonlight series.  I sadly have not read the first book of the series, Masked by Moonlight, but it is now on my to-read list.  I’ve been sitting on her second novel in the series, Chased by Moonlight, for […]

Lover Enshrined by J.R. Ward

28 July 2011 Nikki R 1

One reason for loving older books, is that it’s ok if it takes me a while to get to the last one of a series.  With new books however, it seems I’m always two books behind…if not more, haha.  I just finished Lover Enshrined by J.R. Ward, I’m ever so […]

Mad Skills by W. Greatshell

26 July 2011 Nikki R 0

You ever read a book that leaves you speechless?  With loads much information, twists and turns that hits you so hard that you’re still trying to figure out what just happened after you’ve read the last page?  Well that’s what happened to me with Mad Skills by Walter Greatshell. Equal […]

Lover Unbound by J.R. Ward

18 July 2011 Nikki R 4

Up until the last book, Lover Revealed, I haven’t been that interested in Vishous.  He has been one of the few characters in the Black Dagger Brotherhood that I was ‘eh’ about.  Yet I finished Lover Unbound in a day (not my normal speed) and have to say it’s my […]

Memories of Envy by B. Hendee

17 July 2011 Nikki R 0

When I sat down to read Memories of Envy by Barb Hendee, I was all prepped for blood and terror and action, which is usual for vampire novels.  Sadly that’s not what happened. A reluctant predator, Eleisha Clevon is determined to locate all vampires still existing in isolation, so she […]
