Angels Can't Swin by Alexandra McCann

GENRE: Contemporary Coming of Age

This was a very well written coming of age novel which deals with many heavy issues through the perspective of three friends. The characters were likable and also elicited sympathy. Anyone who has had that awkward phase or experinced a traumatic event can relate to at least one of these characters. The way they intertwine and grow is an inspiration.

Exposed by M.J. Williamz

GENRE: Contemporary Lesbian Romance

I had high hopes for this book although the cover almost turned me off. The blurb made it seem like a quirky type of romance but it was very repetitive and contrived. This could have gone somuch better if the book didn't seem to have an identity crisis between being a cute romance and an erotic novel.

Force of Nature by Kim Baldwin

GENRE: Contemporary Lesbian Romance

So I have a weakness for firefighters and disasters. This book has both and a pretty good love story as well. The characters are likable and real. The setting is amazing, I want to live there. The plot flows really well with a slow burn romance. Nothing to cheesy or contrived. It just seems to happen because it is meant to be.

Darkness Falls by K.C. Luck

GENRE: Dystopian, Lesbian Romance

As a major fan of dystopian fiction and lesbian fiction Darkness Falls is the best of both worlds! Each character is unique and developed there is no unnecessary fluff it all flows. The event that causes the world to collapse is plausible, which is important to me in my dystopian fiction. The reactions of the characters is also realistic. From the resourceful ones to those in denial. I highly recommend this book and believe you should have K.C. Luck on your list of up and coming authors to watch out for!

Turning On a Dime(Addy and Karen, #1) by Tey Holden

GENRE: Contemporary Lesbian Romance

Tey Holden creates characters that you want to cheer for, hug, and tell to open their eyes. The story flows very well and bother characters have to make tough choices. I am looking forward to continuing the story with them in Scotland.

Take a Chance (A Pine Cone Romance #2) by D. Jackson Leigh

GENRE: Contemporary Lesbian Romance

This is a sweet, little romance. It is part two of a three book series written by three different authors so all have their own quirks even if the characters are the same. I really enjoyed reading about Trip and Jaime but I have to say Petunia was my favorite. I finished this book with the warm fuzzies and a smile.

Take My Hand ( Pine Cone Romance #1) by Missouri Vaun

GENRE: Contemporary Lesbian Romance

Take My Hand is a well developed contemporary romance of the accidental sort. The characters are an interesting blend and the secondary characters in the small southern town lend to the setting. This book provided laughs as well as warm fuzzies and perhaps a bit warmer feelings as well. It is part one of three books that three authors worte together each focusing on one of three best friends and their relationships.
