What the Heck Did I Read This Week? An Erotica Short Story Side Podcast
Heidi didn't have a book ready to do her normal review this week so she decided to talk about a short story she downloaded on Valentine's Day.  It's erotica, so this is a non-traditional podcast. Be prepared for a conversation about taking a trip into an alien-human world... ! We are talking about Thirst by Addison Cain. It's 85 pages of Glabrx the alien.Minutes 1-8 - Discusses erotica as a general genreMinute 8.50 - Heidi talks about her journey into discovering this taleMinute 11.25 onward goes into the description of the bookOther book mentioned - Parasite Rex: Inside the Bizarre World of Nature's Most Dangerous Creatures by Carl Zimmer (this is NOT a romance book but a fascinating Non-Fiction book on parasitic creatures). ***Side note trigger that wasn't explicitly described in the podcast - the story Thirst is dubious consent due to the dynamic at the start of the story. Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall - A sweet contemporary romance to warm your soul on Valentine's Day
This contemporary romance topped the charts of best romances in 2020. Listen to the podcast to find out if Heidi agrees with this assessment and what score she gave it on the 1-10 scale. This sweet romance (kissing only described so rated PG) is between two men, Luc and Oliver, who enter a fake relationship so they both have a date to important events coming up in their lives. As you may expect... the romance starts to not feel so fake. Both men are vibrant and wonderful characters you will fall in love with through the story. The emotional development of the main characters with the hurdles that make them so fearful of love, yet desperate to find it, is incredibly well done.  This is an appropriate book to present on Valentine's Day as it was a book that moved Heidi to tears (and she has a heart of stone.)Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

Phoenix Pack Series Book 1 'Feral Sins' by Suzanne Wright - A Wolf Shifter Book Wahoo!
Love fated mate stories? Love wolf shifters?  The Phoenix Pack series comes up as a recommendation whenever someone asks for a good fated mate or wolf shifter story so Heidi checked out Book 1 Feral Sins.  This is a "marriage of convenience - or mating of convenience" trope in order to help out both the heroine and hero and is definitely a STEAMY insta-lust book! Heidi provides a deep dive into the book to give you a breakdown on the overall premise so you can see if it will appeal to you. Heidi then gives her opinion of the book and the things she connected with, or that didn't really hit. The end of the podcast (after a musical interlude) starts the "spoiler section" where Heidi gives more details on things she liked/disliked and gets into the sexy times details. The Ratings:Heidi uses a 1-10 system with 10 as the best. Each of the following categories can get a point: characters, romance, plot, climax, pacing, dialogue, world building, mechanics, overall impression, and authorial voice. She did give one book a 0.She also let's you know if it is PG, PG-13, R, or X!  WOWZERS!Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

Omegaverse Follow Up - Revisiting Addison Caine, looking at two books and correcting a statement from the last podcast
Last podcast we broke down the omegaverse and at the very end (57 minute mark) discussed Addison Caine the foremother of the omegaverse and a lawsuit she was involved in, as well as the first book in her breakout series Born to Be Bound. This podcast revisits both of those topics. Heidi dove deeper into the NYT article (not well done and pretty shoddy research), and presents her findings. Despite her adamant stance, Heidi DID read Book 2 in the Born to Be Bound series and she discusses how amazing Addison's writing is. She also read The Golden Line by Addison Caine and discusses that book and what she enjoyed about it. Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

What is the Omegaverse? A subgenre of Paranormal - this universe is tough to navigate so Heidi helps you through it
Heidi recently learned about the Omegaverse and has dived in. Reading about ten books in this subgenre in the past month, she breaks down what the Omegaverse is (first half hour). She explains the main themes:1. Alpha's, Beta's and Omega's2. Knotting3. The power dynamic4. The bond* This episode has more sex talk than most episodes* You have been warnedBooks mentioned in the podcast:Hired for Heat by Leann Ryan - Omega's are on top in this book with Alpha's being caged and kept away from society. Heidi felt this was the most 'romance-like' out of all the ones she read.Choosing Her Alpha by Isoellen - The first book Heidi read. Another good book to start with. Starts slow and not overly sex heavy. Get a good introduction into Alpha/Omega dynamic. Her Broken Alpha by Isoellen - This book has BDSM elements in it, has much more sex throughout than her other book. Heidi had issues with the BDSM occurring while the heroine was pregnant. Beholden Duet by Zoey Ellis - Not a bad series but Heidi felt there were some plot holes when there is a reveal from the hero at the end about things that he knew all along and his treatment of the Omega when they are together their first nights.  It did not feel consistent and either she missed something, or it wasn't resolved properly.The Knotted Book Series by Laxmi Hariharan - Four book series with Zeus as the hero. Good Alpha/Omega dynamic but this series was a bit too long. Didn't need to be this many books. Good full Omegaverse experience.Fae Series by Laxmi Hariharan - Stolen by the Fae - Heidi loved the hero Dante, but thought that the sex moved a little too fast. First encounter a little much for her. Heidi didn't read second book, didn't connect with heroine in book one. Seduced by the Fae - Book 3, packaged as a BDSM book but does not deliver with this. This book fell flat for Heidi and she did not finish it (maybe only a few chapters left.). The Sacred Omega's Book 1 - December - by Merel Pierce - Great writing, great description of how the Alpha/Omega relationship works but this book contains very graphic rape halfway through. The second half of the book is about the trauma of dealing with this encounter. Heidi wished she'd passed or that the book had gone a different direction. She will be looking at other books by this author that hopefully don't have this theme.  This is a good author to keep an eye out for.Rite of the Omega - Eva Dresden - Hard pass for Heidi. The heroine was very weak and cried or was afraid the entire book. Difficult to connect with or root for. She had no personality and was completely unlikeable. As the hero is a dark hero, he is unlikeable too. No reason to buy Part 2 in the two part book series for Heidi. Additionally, Heidi had issues with the writing, the prose is heavy handed and bogs the book down. The writer does not do a good enough job of describing where the people are in space, in particular even in sex scenes you are not sure where the person is facing in relation to the other. That is a problem. Born to be Bound - By Addison Cain - The first book in the 4 or 5 Part Shepherd series. Heidi detested this book. At the very end the hero randomly cheats on the heroine. WHAT?! WHY? Alpha's and Omegas are supposed to have very strong bonds so this came out of left field and literally left Heidi feeling like she'd been slapped in the face. She has no desire to read the rest of the series. Also, she didn't like the hero even before this moment, forced pregnancies are pretty repulsive. Addison Cain and Zoey Ellis law suit article:  https://www.nytimes.com/2020/05/23/business/omegaverse-erotica-copyright.htmlSupport the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

The Missing Podcasts- Heidi Discusses why she removed her podcast review of The Hidden Legacy Series by Ilona Andrews
This podcast deviates from the normal one book, one review format. Heidi was going to be discussing The Hidden Legacy Series by Ilona Andrews Books 1,2, and 3 with Nevada and Connor over a two part series but she removed the podcasts. Why? As a teaser, it involves a suppression of discussion of the books on the Ilona Andrews fan page including the author themselves. If you listened to Heidi's intro podcast you know that she values discussion of all books and having a critical review and discourse. Romance books should be no different. In some ways, romance books are even tougher because they engage a covenant with the reader. Romance book readers expect things like a happy ever after, a hero to adore, a heroine to be friends with. Heidi always evaluates characters and if they are true to how the author has represented them throughout their entire book/series.  As a fan, Heidi has her opinions on when these expectations are not met and she discusses them in this podcast series. Being able to discuss books openly, politely, and with clear points on why we feel the way we do, is incredibly important and makes us all better readers. When this is suppressed, Heidi will not react well.  This is Heidi's favorite series and favorite couple so it is disappointing for her not to reveal all of her love for Connor to pod listeners, but for now, the podcasts are being yanked. There is also a random three minute side track in the middle of pod where Heidi talks about Boston and some famous Bostonians like Chris Evans. She talks about the recent Sam Adams commercial. Yes this all makes sense and ties into the podcast.

Review of Slave to Sensation by Nalini Singh a Paranormal/Urban Fantasy Romance
Holy cats this book is fantastic!  Nalini Singh creates a dramatic world in her Psy-Changeling series that starts with this book. This book details the world of the Psy - a race of creatures that have removed emotion from their population for the last hundred years in order to cure the insanity that was causing murder and suicide rates among their numbers. Our heroine, Sascha, is a Psy of the highest strength, a cardinal. Her power has never manifested in any of the typical power lines acceptable for her race. Lucas Hunter, the hero, is a black panther shifter, alpha of the leopard clan DarkRiver. He is working on a construction project with the Psy as an undercover operation to infiltrate them in order to find out what they are hiding. A Psy has been killing changelings and he will find out who. This is a fated mates story. This is an investigation story. This is an urban fantasy/paranormal story. Wowzers!  This has world building that will take you away from daily life and a high paced action that will keep you reading late at night.  What an incredible hero and heroine! It's got it all PLUS it's got sexual tension that is written so well you will want to read everything Singh has ever written immediately.This book may get an elusive perfect 10!Heidi breaks it all down for you in the podcast and then gives you her ratings.Part I - A spoiler free review of the book to help you discover if you want to read the book.Heidi gives each book a Steaminess Rating using the PG, PG13, and Rated R system.Heidi also ranks each book using her own ranking system.Heidi uses a 1-10 system with 10 as the best.

Review of the Historical Romance Daring and the Duke by Sarah MacLean
Daring the Duke by Sarah MacLean is the third book in the Bareknuckle Bastard trilogy by MacLean. In Heidi's opinion it is by the best of the three (although Heidi did not read Book 2). This trilogy recites the stories of four children all united by a sadist Duke who wanted an heir. Ewan, our hero, is the child that was chosen by the Duke to take the title. The other three, Devil, Whit, and Grace, must flee for their lives and live in the seedy underbelly of London despite Ewan and Grace having loved each other their entire lives. Grace feels Ewan betrayed them. This story is a hate to love and also a story about redemption and misunderstanding over a very tragic past and truly horrible circumstances. For a historical romance we have women in the drivers seat which is a nice change. Heidi very much enjoyed this. Heidi also loved Ewan. She's a sucker for men that want to be worthy of their women. Heidi couldn't put this book down and couldn't wait for the HEA. Join her to learn about this story and see if it is a book you may enjoy too.Part I - A spoiler free review of the book to help you discover if you want to read the book.

Review of the Medieval Romance WarWolfe by Kathryn Le Veque
Heidi wanted to continue exploring Kathryn Le Veque's books and chose this book that was a USA Today bestseller, RONE finalist for 2018, Book Excellence Award Winner for Romance 2018, and Kindle Book Review Finalist for 2018.  Le Veque is a master at medieval romance and Heidi is enjoying joining her in the medieval time period, even if she is wondering just how smelly these people are. This book joins Gaetan, the hero, who is the WarWolfe of the Norman army as they are conquering the Anglo Saxons in England. He leads a team of ten Knights in an elite squad that decimates its enemies. Our heroine Ghislaine is on the Anglo Saxon side and she decides to help Gaetan rescue one of his fallen nights from her sadistic brother.  Heidi didn't enjoy this book as much as Highland Gladiator. She again found some problematic themes with the hero that she had trouble surpassing in order to root for him and the heroine as a couple in the end. She wasn't crazy about the heroine either and found some inconsistencies in her character.  The romance aside, you will want to read this book for the plot and the action alone! Heidi stayed up all night to find out what happened. One of Heidi's main criteria for romance books is that they need to be great books and have great writing - and these books have that! Come and listen to the podcast and see if you agree.Part I - A spoiler free review of the book to help you discover if you want to read the book.Heidi gives each book a Steaminess Rating using the PG, PG13, and Rated R system.Heidi also ranks each book using her own ranking system.

Bonus Mini Podcast - Romance Crossover - Mystery Book The Mountains Wild
In the mystery debut novel The Mountains Wild by Sarah Stewart Taylor Heidi shares that she felt the romance story in this book was superior to the mystery story. The romance moved her emotionally in ways her desiccated heart rarely allows. This book is told in flashbacks. Twenty years ago Maggie's cousin goes missing in Ireland. While there, Maggie meets Connor and they fall in love. They are torn apart and are not able to reconcile when they both think the worst of each other. Maggie never gets over him. Twenty years later, Maggie's cousin has never been found and when some of her cousins clothing is found she is back in Ireland and back near Connor. The flashbacks dole out their story line in small sips which was infuriating because Heidi wanted to know as much  as possible as quickly as she could because she loved them. It is well done. Heidi believes this author should switch to romance because she did a good job twisting Heidi's heart. Heidi loved the romance more than the murder story. If you enjoy mysteries, Heidi wanted to share this mini podcast about this book in case you may be captivated by this book too.  Support the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

Review of the Medieval Romance Highland Gladiator by Kathryn Le Veque
This podcast is the first of two books that Heidi is reviewing by this author.  Kathryn Le Veque is the Queen of medieval romance and in this tale she provides a love between rival clans that can barely get off the ground when the hero's village is burned to the ground. To get his revenge against the heroine's clan he goes off to learn how to fight gladiator style.  The action scenes in the ring are heart pounding. What really charmed Heidi though, was that the hero, Lor, was a gentle giant. He was a big, Viking looking man, but he didn't want to learn how to fight. He just wanted to be a blacksmith. He was gentle and kind. He was a hero Heidi really loved and rooted for. Isabail, the heroine, is feisty, if a bit one dimensional.  This story is really Lor's and Heidi loved following his story as he goes to the elite, secret, Ludus Caledonia fighting school. Heidi really enjoyed the romance threaded through this story and was surprised to find how sweet and charming the romance was. Lor really put a sparkle in her eye. Part I - A spoiler free review of the book to help you discover if you want to read the book.It includes the Steaminess Rating using the PG, PG13, and Rated R system.It also includes Heidi's ranking system. Heidi uses a 1-10 system with 10 as the best.

Review of A Heart of Blood and Ashes by Milla Vane a Fantasy Romance
This lush and intense fantasy romance features Yvenne, an intelligent and courageous heroine that Heidi really rooted for and wanted a happy ending for.  However, this romance also features Marrek, the "hero".  The uneasy truce that has settled on the land is on pins and needles as the death of the King and Queen of Parsathe, and Marrek's parents, starts this tale.  If you enjoy Barbarian swashbuckling romances, this may be your kind of book.Heidi was really conflicted on his book.  It brought forth a lot of negative emotions around having such a superior heroine in a subordinate role.  This podcast is a bit longer because Heidi takes some time to reflect (minute 14ish) that she really does not enjoy reading romance books where the romantic partners are not equals.  She found the authors world building incredibly impressive but the romance between the hero and the heroine was very disappointing.  Come and find out why and see if you agree with her.  Each podcast is broken into two sections, separated by a music interlude to let you know when Part II - with mild spoilers has started.Spoilers start at minute: 30.00  Part I - A spoiler free review of the book to help you discover if you want to read the book or not with Heidi's ranking of 1-10, and the steaminess rating.  Part II - There are mild spoilers about the book as Heidi does a deep dive to explore what she liked or didn't like and give you the details on why.  There is a brief music interlude to break up the podcast to let the listener know when the spoilers start.  Listen to the first half of the podcast to find out if you want to read the book... then listen to the full review when you have finished the book to see if your review aligns with Heidi's!  Join us at:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/637531733526838/Follow me on instagram at:  @romancebookreviewpodcastSupport the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)

Review of The Historical Romance The Rakess by Scarlett Peckham
The Rakess is a refreshing historical romance that pushes the boundaries for the categories that women are meant to be in during this time period.  Seraphina Arden, our heroine, takes what she wants and fights for women’s rights for education and equal treatment.  She is strong, she is not without her flaws, and she is relatable.  Our hero, Adam Anderson, is understandably bowled over.  Heidi has a lot that she really enjoys about this book and wants to share, but has some really strong thoughts and discussion about the sex scenes.  There is some frank discussion on the use of language and some of the sex acts that occur in this book (explicit content for sure).  There is a reason why this podcast is one of the longest so far!  Come and see what the buzz is all about regarding this book and what Heidi gave it as a rating.Each podcast is broken into two sections, separated by a music interlude to let you know when Part II - with mild spoilers has started.Spoilers start at minute: 30.00  Part I - A spoiler free review of the book to help you discover if you want to read the book or not with Heidi's ranking of 1-10, and the steaminess rating.  Part II - There are mild spoilers about the book as Heidi does a deep dive to explore what she liked or didn't like and give you the details on why.  There is a brief music interlude to break up the podcast to let the listener know when the spoilers start.  Listen to the first half of the podcast to find out if you want to read the book... then listen to the full review when you have finished the book to see if your review aligns with Heidi's!  Join us at:  https://www.facebook.com/groups/637531733526838/ Follow me on instagram at:  @romancebookreviewpodcastSupport the show (https://paypal.me/romancebookreviewpod)
