After hearing a few friends RAVE about this book, I used one of my Audible credits to order the audio book to listen to while traveling in the car and walking to and fro from work.

It was an ok book, but I must be the only person on the planet to think it was ho-hum and pretty non eventful. You have an old man ruminating about his past in the circus with a young mans perspective.

I just don’t get the hype. Perhaps romance novels have warped my view of great future classics. I don’t think so.

I am on a new fantasy kick to replace the lack of kick ass heroines from my favorite romance authors. Anita Blake the one trick pony is down the tubes and at this time I have not found any new releases from my other favs.

Daughter of the Blood

Initially, I have not favored fantasy novels, but after seeing reviews of this book describing the tortured heroes of Daemon and Lucivar I knew I would love it.

The Dark Realm has been waiting for the arrival of their fated Queen for many centuries. The women in this tale hold the power to rule the males and have been very ruthless and hungry. Many of the current queens will do everything within their power to hold their positions of terror and authority. When rumors of “the Queen” start flowing, many are scrambling to find her to be their savior or to eliminate her.

Cantalope anyone?

What an horribly bad cover. I wonder if the artist/publisher was afraid that we just might miss the topic of the book so they decided to make it glaringly clear incase we don’t get the obvious.

Dear publisher, I get that this is a gay regency romance but the bulge down the shirtless guys pants is just plain scary. Thankfully this man is gay because what women would not run screaming from Mr. Monster Ball guy. A phallic shape portray an aroused male, a cantaloupe suggests ball cancer.

Caution: I wanted to stick my neck out here and review something a little different. If you are under 18 or do not want to read about adult videos, stop here.

A few years ago my husband picked up one of my romance books read a few pages, looked my straight in the eye with this funny look on his face and said this is chick porn…. We then got into the debate of whether it was porn or not.
