Lord of Rage by Jill Monroe

19 February 2012 Casey 0

Of the four authors participating in the Royal House of Shadows series, Jill Monroe was the only one I hadn’t read before. Because of that, I wasn’t sure what to expect but Lord of Rage was a funny, sexy story and easily my favorite book in the series (so far). […]

Sweetly by Jackson Pearce

18 November 2011 Casey 1

Of all the fairy tales, the story of Hansel and Gretel is my least favorite. Something about it has always rubbed me the wrong way. Yet when I read Jackson Pearce’s retelling of the story in her latest novel, Sweetly, there was nothing I didn’t absolutely love about it. As a […]

Snow’s Blood by Jaiden Robert

11 November 2011 Nicole 0

It’s no secret I love me a good, debauched faerie tale, so when I got the chance to read Snow’s Blood by Jaiden Robert, I totally jumped on it.  I’ll be honest, I have a few mixed feelings and I can definitely say that if you have an issue with Mature […]

Cat’s Tale by Bettie Sharpe

1 October 2011 Casey 1

I absolutely love fairy tales. I love seeing each author’s different take on a classic tale and how they make it their own story. With her latest novel, Cat’s Tale, Bettie Sharpe has instantly become one of my new favorite authors with her clever yet hilarious retelling of Puss in […]

My Unfair Godmother by J. Rallison

29 July 2011 Casey 0

When I heard that Janette Rallison wrote a sequel to My Fair Godmother I started squealing. (I even did a happy dance or three.) Then I started to worry – could a sequel possibly exceed the high expectations set by My Fair Godmother? But I shouldn’t have worried. My Unfair Godmother was just […]

The Sleeping Beauty by M. Lackey

30 December 2010 Casey 3

As a lover of fairy tales, I was slightly apprehensive about reading Mercedes Lackey’s The Sleeping Beauty. Some authors simply replicate the overused cliches and “traditional” Disneyesque characteristics, but I shouldn’t have worried. Mercedes Lackey created a vivid world full of classic fairytale elements with her own unique, personal twist to it all in her latest addition […]

Crazed Hearts by S. Walker

15 October 2010 Jackie 1

I really do love Shiloh Walker’s Grimm Circle series, and ever since we met Ren in No Prince Charming, I’ve really wanted to know who he was.  He didn’t get his HEA with Elle, but he did at least get some closure in I Thought It Was You. Now, with […]

I Thought It Was You by S. Walker

14 October 2010 Jackie 1

I love Shiloh Walker’s Grimm Circle series, but I Thought It Was You was really short.  Granted, it was suppose to be and it accomplished what the blurb says, but I’m not fully with it. The events of this free short story take place between the events of No Prince […]

No Prince Charming by S. Walker

14 August 2010 Jackie 2

I am a huge fan of fairy tales with new twists and Shiloh Walker has a new fascinating series called the Grimm Circle and the novel, No Prince Charming was a great addition. Her Happy-Ever-After has been a long time coming… Elle spent years trying to get over her so-called […]

The Stepsister Scheme by JC Hines

4 August 2010 Jackie 2

One of my favorite types of stories are twisted fairy tales, where an author takes a classic and gives it a makeover. Sometimes they don’t turn out all that well, but I can’t say that with The Stepsister Scheme by Jim C. Hines. It was fabulous! Cinderella–whose real name is […]
