May 2024 Wrap-Up

The Highlander's Wild Flame

The Highlander’s Wild Flame Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

A twist on Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, The Highlander’s Wild Flame is a wonderful (albeit somewhat “spicy”) Scottish retelling of the age-old story of true love. What follows is a tale of deceits and betrayals, truths and trust, a bit of fantasy, … and love. Will there be a happily ever after?

Magic and Medicine

Magic and Medicine Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

Magic and Medicine by Olena Nikitin is a captivating blend of urban fantasy, romance, and Slavic mythology. Set in Gdansk, Poland, the story follows the intense and steamy relationship between Sara and Leszek, the Tricity Mafia boss. With vivid descriptions and engaging dialogue, the book promises an exciting series ahead.

The Heiress Masquerade

The Heiress Masquerade Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

With tropes such as enemies to lovers, forced proximity, he’s her boss, she’s a secret heiress, and she (surprisingly) falls (begrudgingly) first, there’s a lot to like about Maddison Michaels’ The Heiress Masquerade. Aimee’s determination to prove herself in a man’s world is both admirable and relatable, and the tension between her and Harrison—both romantic and otherwise—is well-executed.

Heritage Main

Heritage Book Review

ByLiteraria Luminaria

Heritage by Holli Gregory follows seventeen-year-old Grace Chamberlain as she discovers her lineage as a descendant of Greek gods, facing sinister attacks and impending supernatural powers. While the concept is compelling and reminiscent of Percy Jackson, the execution could benefit from smoother pacing, deeper character development, and a more satisfying conclusion. Overall, it offers an entertaining blend of mythology, adventure, and contemporary challenges.
