It's Contemporary Romance week at SVZ!

"Boring"
"Bland and mushy sweetness."

These phrases used to be uttered by my lips, but NO MORE!

I used to think Contemporary Romance was for the sweet at heart.
The safe vanilla fiction for those girls with sparkly pink lip gloss and pedicures to match.

Color me surprised to find a few of my favored reads taking place in the plain ol' normal world.
No super powers or vampires.
No aliens or space ships.
Just normal.

Don't believe me? Try them for yourself!

I fully expected this to be just another smuttfest to satisfy my literary menage lust. WRONG! Amazing phrasing and unique insight into multiple relationships makes this peek inside the college dorm room more than a fling.

Emotionally intense moving on to deliciously smutty, menage again.

Starts light and morphs into a menage heartbreaker that I keep coming back to.

Hot. Dirty. Powerful. A favorite author of mine and luscious in audiobook format.
(Not menage. Ha! You thought there was a secret pattern. Maybe just a tendency. *wink*)


Happy Reading!


F U
by Mia Watts

When a screw-up by the Fullerton University Housing Office leaves Parker Galloway shacked up with four sexy men, Parker thinks four just might be her lucky number... as long as she can get Kei Yamamoto to join in the fun.

But will taking advantage of FU's mistake end up getting all five roomies kicked off campus, or will it be the closest thing to heaven Parker has ever experienced?
My review guidelines can be found HERE.

COVER ART
  • Nice representation of characters and location, though I'm not quite sure what the designer has against Dan to cut his head off!
  • Typographic clues suggest college life, sweet.

SEXUALITY
  • M/M/M/F including slight M/M play
  • DP
  • Rape, attempted
  • M/F

REVIEW
  • Smokin' hot flirting and sexuality

  • Amazingly adorable scenes with Henry

  • Intimate scenes well detailed but a little quick for me... expected more hesitation

  • Surprised me with beautiful phrasing, whether crass or sweet

  • Cultural references added an unexpected layer to this love story

  • Certainly brought back to mind the stress of my college days

  • A quick hot, sweet read - I finished it within a day!
