Review: Wishes & Wings by Nina Lane (Birdsong #3)


Note: An advance reader copy (ARC) was provided by the author via Give Me Books Promotions.

Though I can envision a life without him, it's not one I would pick--if I had the choice. I will always, forever, endlessly, throughout time and across universes...choose him.

My heart. My poor, bruised and battered heart. After everything Nina Lane put it through with her Birdsong trilogy, I have two words for her: thank you. Nell Fairchild and Darius Hawke's love story consumed me. Spanning three books, Lane maintained a steady pace throughout, weaving a story that had my thoughts ensnared and my emotions entangled. There was no resisting this tale of love, family, and intrigue, and now, with the release of its conclusion, Wishes & Wings, everything comes to a head. Secrets will be uncovered and choices must be made--but at what cost to Nell and Darius?

If there is one series that I hope my fellow readers will pick up this year, it's Birdsong. If you're familiar with Nina Lane's writing, this is her at her best; if you've yet to read something of hers, I highly encourage you to read this, beginning with Sparrow & Hawke, then Feather & Flame, and Wishes & Wings. Prepare to become emotionally invested as you get swept away with Lane's words. Yes, Nell and Darius get their happily-ever-after, but it's one that they had to fight for--one that they had to believe they deserved. If I could give Wishes & Wings more than five-plus stars, I would, but I'll have to settle for that since that's as high as I can go with my rating system. Oh, who am I kidding? All the stars for this book and this series! One of 2022's best!

Girl Breaker (Break on Through #3) by Harper Kincaid Date Released: January 17, 2017 Samhain Publishing About Girl Breaker Sometimes the best thing a good girl can do is make a bad decision.  Jessica has always been the girl with her head in the clouds and her nose in a book, only dating the "nice guys". But when rough-around-the-edges Viking-biker-god, Mad Max, and his precocious little girl move onto her street, Jessica falls hard and fast for both of them. Max is no stranger to women wanting to share his bed—and he's always been more than happy to oblige them all. He's lived wild all his life—that is, until a daughter shows up on his doorstep and he meets a redheaded angel down the block. There's nothing more he wants than to claim Jessica as his, to bring the gorgeous spitfire to his bed. But a man like him doesn't get a happy ending with a woman like her. He's got a whole other life, one he's kept secret for good reason. If Jessica

Blue Skies (Blue Skies #1) by Marie Sinclair Release Date: October 11, 2023 About Blue Skies Greg loves his job as a flight attendant. If only his love life could make him as happy, he’d be all set. Asexual and HIV-positive, Greg has had a series of untrustworthy boyfriends who saw him as a challenge or told him they could accept his sexuality and status. Until they couldn’t. Still reeling from his latest breakup, Greg’s romantic heart beats a little faster when he meets Holden at a club, even though his brain whispers caution. For Holden, relationships are something he can’t afford. He’s been in the closet his entire adult life because it could cost him his job if anyone finds out he’s gay. At forty-eight, hook-ups, one night stands, and quickies in a bathroom are as good as it gets for him. It’s all he’s looking for when he goes to Neon. Instead, he finds Greg. Drawn to each other from the start, the two experience a bit of a bumpy take-off. But then Holden ends up on Greg

Review: Him by Sarina Bowen & Elle Kennedy (Him #1)

Image
Four years' worth of meaningless sexual encounters flash through my head as I break the kiss and slide down his body again. All those guys I hooked up with in the past...they're a blur. They're faceless. Sometimes they were faceless even when I was with them. I got off, they got off, but I wasn't fully present. I always held something back from them. Not with Jamie. I can't hold back with him, and never could. Holy book hangover. It's confirmed: there's something seriously wrong with me to have waited as long as I did to read this novel, though I'm counting getting it on sale as an absolute bonus. I get it now. I seriously and absolutely get why Him , the first book in the series by the same name from the writing tandem of Sarina Bowen and Elle Kennedy, has received and continues to receive the stellar reviews and accolades it's gotten since its release in July of last year. I've read many an M/M romance novel and yes, I've read
