Review: Perfiditas (Roma Nova #2) by Alison Morton

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Review: Perfiditas (Roma Nova #2) by Alison Morton

A lot has changed in the seven years since we first met the very unlucky Karen Brown.

She has now completely embraced her true identity of Carina Mitela and she is now living as a Roma Novan.

Carina has married Conradus (AKA Conrad) and since the last novel, they have advanced in their careers within the PGSF (Praetorian Guard Special Forces).

Conrad has just been made Legate which is basically the Chief within the PGSF and Carina is also a Captain in the Strategy Section.

Their marriage is solid but their careers are complicated.  They also have their children to protect and provide for….but that is a fact easier said than done. Carina must prevent a conspiracy that not only threatens her country, but also her marriage and children!

Review: What A Lady Needs For Christmas (MacGregors #4) by Grace Burrowes

by The Lit BitchLeave a Comment on Review: What A Lady Needs For Christmas (MacGregors #4) by Grace Burrowes

So here we are….almost to the holiday season and I have yet to read a single holiday book though it was on my ‘to do’ this year for reading.

That’s when this book came along for review…..I was originally looking for something like Lauren Willig’s Mischief of the Mistletoe but hey….I’ll take what I can get!

Since this month seems to be romance novel month for me…I figured this was better than no holiday read!

Lady Joan Flynn is heading to the Highlands in order to escape a scandal. A potential client of her’s got her intoxicated and attempted to take liberties with her.

Now she is making a run for the Highlands before her reputation can be tarnished. There she decides she must find a husband by Christmas!

My guest writer Spencer Blohm wrote this fantastic article for us today about your favorite holiday films and the books that inspired them….please welcome Spencer to The Lit Bitch!

Review: The Raven Prince (Princes #1) by Elizabeth Hoyt

by The Lit BitchLeave a Comment on Review: The Raven Prince (Princes #1) by Elizabeth Hoyt

I’ve recently read some pretty heavy novels so I think it was long over due for a fluff fest!

With December being so chilly and long, it often ends up being my steamy romance month. This month I’ve read a lot of historical romances of the ‘bodice ripper’ persuasion…and not necessarily on purpose.

I’ve never read anything by Elizabeth Hoyt so I didn’t really know what to expect.

She has been recommended to me by other historic romance fans and after looking through some of her titles, The Raven Prince caught my eye. I think mostly because I liked the title, it sounded interesting and it sounded almost like a fairy tale.

Release Day Book Blast: FEEL by Karen-Anne Stewart

by The Lit Bitch1 Comment on Release Day Book Blast: FEEL by Karen-Anne Stewart

01_Feel CoverPublication Date: December 15, 2014

Genre: New Adult, Paranormal Romance

Add to GR ButtonThe one whose emotions I can’t feel is the one who makes me feel the most.

I was a sensitive, at least that’s what I was told by the boy who saved me from the overwhelming emotions that consumed my soul, the boy who saved me from myself when my gift became stronger. Through the years, he was my redemption, my reason to take my next breath…then, he was gone.

Jensen always told me I was strong, but I didn’t believe him until I was forced to be strong on my own, and I kept breathing without him. I’ve taken 42 million breaths since the moment he sent me away. Now, four years later, he’s standing in front of me, and I can barely breathe.

This isn’t just a story about the abilities I possess; it’s a story about something much stronger…the love of the man who possesses every part of me.

***Disclaimer – Feel is intended for readers 18+ due to strong language, mature scenes, and some violence.
