1. Kissing The Pearl by Jamie Loghan (2025)
Theme: Contemporary Romance
Review: Let’s kick things off with Kissing The Pearl. Set against the dreamy backdrop of the coastal town of Saltmere, this story dives deep into the sizzling, emotionally-charged connection between Alex and Lucy.
They come from wildly different worlds but their chemistry is unstoppable. What follows is a magnetic, slow-burn romance filled with tension, passion, and all the delicious chaos that comes with falling hard when you least expect it.
This one’s written for grown-ups who like their love stories with a bit of bite — bold, sexy and unapologetically steamy. If you’re after a contemporary romance with edge, heart, and a heat level that hums long after the last page... Kissing The Pearl is calling.

2 Moonbreak - Author: Lise MacTague
Theme: Science Fiction
(Post-Apocalyptic Werewolf Romance)
Review: If you're in the mood for something moody, fierce, and dripping in supernatural tension, Moonbreak by Lise MacTague needs to be on your list.
It's a sapphic fantasy where power, trust and attraction all circle each other like wolves before the pounce. The atmosphere is thick with danger, the pacing is tight and the chemistry? Off the charts.
This isn’t your average paranormal romance—it’s raw, magnetic and smart.
I devoured this one with a glass of red and zero shame. It’s the kind of story that pulls you into its world and keeps you right on that delicious edge, wondering what will happen next.
Sexy, sharp, and full of attitude—Moonbreak doesn’t just bite, it lingers.

3. All the Painted Stars - Author: Emma Denny
Theme: Historical (Medieval Romance)
Review: All the Painted Stars caught me completely off guard—in the best way possible. Emma Denny’s writing feels like stepping into another time, but with emotions so raw and real they hit you right in the chest.
This isn’t just a love story; it’s about finding light in the shadows, about courage in quiet moments and the kind of connection that stays with you long after the last page. The atmosphere is richly painted, the characters deeply human and the longing? It hums beneath every sentence like a secret waiting to be told.
I found myself reading it curled up on the couch late into the night, the kind of book that demands your full attention—not because it shouts, but because it whispers with such powerful truth.
If you want a sapphic romance that’s tender, moving and layered with history and heart, All the Painted Stars is a gem you shouldn’t miss.

Shields crafts a world that feels both familiar and enchanted, where every moment bubbles with tension and possibility.
The characters are richly drawn, with enough depth to make their joys and struggles feel deeply personal. It’s the kind of story that stays with you long after you close the cover, making you want to believe in a little magic yourself.
I found myself completely absorbed, savoring every twist and turn like a rich, dark honey dripping slowly—deliciously unexpected.

Theme: Science Fiction (Space Adventure Romance)
Review: Blast off into a sapphic space saga that’s anything but subtle—bold, brilliant, and ready for liftoff.
The Fleet Admiral’s Daughter kicks off The Black Hole Saga with high-stakes adventure, political intrigue, and a fierce, layered heroine caught between loyalty, legacy, and her own desires. Gaudio builds a galaxy that’s as complex as it is dangerous—where every decision echoes across star systems, and trust is a currency few can afford.
There’s action. There’s snark. There are ships and strategy and the kind of sharp, simmering energy between women that makes you read just one more chapter… then three more after that.
If you’re craving a sapphic space journey with grit, heart, and a whole lot of firepower, this one’s got warp drive written all over it.
