For The Telling (WeHo 13) by Sherryl D. Hancock

GENRE: Lesbian Fiction, Romance

Hancock's books are like meeting up with old friends and feeling you never left. In this she introduces new characters that will meld into the WeHo clan and become family. She never shy's away from conflict but shows with support you can get through anything. These are my comfort books.

The Word Shimmer by Jenn Matthews

GENRE: Lesbian Romance

This was a VERY slow burn book. The characters are well developed and the writing is excellent but I think the plot may have taken some scenic routes. Matthews does bring it all back together but it wasn't as well formed as her debut book. This said her amazing insight into emotions and being able to put them into words to create amazing characters makes her books enjoyable. Overall I would recommend this. She is a young author and we all know that authors improve with age.

Ticket To Love by Donna Jay

GENRE: Lesbian Romance(Sexual Content)

Donna Jay does a great job of creating characters with flaws but still likable. With Ticket To Love both Tara and Kathryn have issues but they find they work well together. This was a fast moving relationship that I would have like to see a slightly more slow burn on. As usually Jay's sexual contact is very fantasy provoking but not crude, very well done.

44 Hours by Donna Jay

GENRE: Lesbian Romance

Enemies to lovers is always an interesting theme. This was not a slow burn really like a lot are but I am not sure Donna Jay knows slow burn (not a bad thing). The characters and their quirkiness was endearing. As usual Jay has an amazing description of her setting which transports you to New Zealand. A jungle setting would normally freak me out but the lack of nope ropes(snakes) in NZ make it more of an adventure than a nightmare. As the sex scenes go it is pretty mild for Jay but the innuendo of adventure in the bedroom is there are well.

Remember Me, Synthetica by K. Aten

GENRE: Science Fiction, Lesbian Fiction

Aten has an incredible repertoire when it comes to her writing but she excels at true science fiction. This is not an easy genre to write and do well but previously with "Waking The Dreamer" and now with "Remember Me, Synthetica" Aten masters it.

This book has all the tech you want in a true science fiction but not at the expense of the character development. In fact the tech builds the main character Alex, a genius scientist, who may perhaps be a little on the Autism spectrum. The growth of this character throughout the book was organic as was her blossoming relationship with Emily. It was a thoroughly enjoyable read and I hope there is a follow up.

Oh, and there is a cat.

Night Cap (Whiskey Springs #3) by J.A. Armstrong

GENRE: Lesbian Romance

Fall brings warm and cozy feelings to Whiskey Springs. Love is in the air as relationships grow and develop. These characters are so well developed you can see and hear them. It is a strength of the author from all the books I have read by her. She does an amazing job of catching the human spirit and making the words come to life.

Cigar Club (Whiskey Springs #2) by J.A.Armstrong

GENRE: Lesbian Romance

It was great to see the women of Whiskey Springs again. This book had a few bumps in the road and we learn more about Riley. As usual Armstrong creates delectable characters who ooze personality. I can see this being a movie or a TV series.
