Not Guilty of Books

  TASTE Feed and Feast - Book Two by EM Lindsey Release Date: June 12, 2026 Review Taste is even better than the first. Cielo’s story will tug at your heart. The sweet guy has been treated terribly by his own government. Forced into servitude, then beaten for following orders. And his punishment continues. But under Dante’s care you can be sure he will thrive, find a found family, and experience comfort and joy. But it will take time, and Dante must be patient. Which is difficult with the pull he feels to Cielo. I love the emotion to this one, not just the world EM and Cora have created.  Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis When portals from another world split open the sky, humanity braces for war… only to discover the monsters from Erethar aren’t here to conquer. They need something from humans. Something oddly specific in order to survive. And I’ve spent the last few years working at my little shop and doing my part to help humanity by donating what the monsters cr...

  THE DROP Subtle Deceptions - Book Four by Elle Keaton Release Date: June 11, 2026 Review I’ve loved Gabe & Casey’s romance, and the murdery, suspenseful shenanigans they get themselves involved in.  Darkness lurks in this small town, and Gabe’s past brings plenty of opportunities for problems. And I love that Casey was the one to get into ‘trouble’. Gabe’s been rubbing off on the straight-laced man. It was missing a bit more of the actual romance, but the storyline was entertaining, and I’ll never tire of Elton. The snarky old man makes me smile.  And I loved the ending. I’m sorry to see them go, but like Gabe’s family, I won’t be surprised if we see them again sometime. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Curiosity might just kill Gabriel Karne after all. It’s only Monday morning and Gabriel Karne is already knee-deep in murder. Roy Wilson, a Westfort pastor with a murky past, turns up dead. Was the man a bad guy turned good? Or was he, as Gabe and Elton s...

  HIS CRUELEST MOVES Barcelona Nights Novella by Kieran Lamour Release Date: June 11, 2026 Review I love the setting, definitely need more non-North American/UK settings in my life, and the characters were intriguing. It’s a novella, so things move quickly, but they feel meaningful, not fluffy. Brought together by mutual necessity, but reluctant acceptance turns to heat, turns to a deep love. I’m definitely intrigued by the writing and the world, so I’ll be back for more. Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Alex can defend himself against anything... except love. Having finally scored his first big role, Isard’s only passion is for the screen. Isard Muntaner, Catalan actor, has finally scored his first decent role, and nothing will distract him from the film’s success. Except that his agent forgot to tell the director that he isn’t actually a martial arts black belt as the part requires. Alex Zhao, Catalan-Chinese, is a martial arts champion who now hopes to earn his livin...
