I’ll preface this review by saying that I feel uncomfortable talking about a Riptide Publishing book right now. (I read this book before I heard about the racism and harassment happening behind the scenes at Riptide.) That being said, it’s a shame to punish all of the authors involved in this press (also, the editorRead More
Julie Thompson reviews Heart of the Game by Rachel Spangler
Sports journalist Sarah Duke lives for the crack of a bat and a deep hit caught at the wall.

At the season opener, she meetsRead More
Julie Thompson reviews Ask, Tell by E.J. Noyes
Just in case you’re unaware, author Jae is hosting Lesbian Book Bingo. There are twenty-five genre categories, including a free square in the center of the board. If you’re like me, some of the squares will challenge you to give books you might otherwise skip over a second chance. Celebrity romances and hospital dramas, forRead More
Shira Glassman reviews Moon-Bright Tides by RoAnna Sylver
First of all, do I really need to say anything other than “sweet romance novella between a witch and a mermaid” in the first place? But I have lots more to say about Moon-Bright Tides by RoAnna Sylver, which rocketed to the top of my f/f fantasy recs list as soon as I read itRead More
Rebecca reviews Dreams Unspoken by R.J. Layer
R.J. Layer’s Dreams Unspoken is an okay read with a dull and dragging plot and the slowest burning romance ever. The book features two very different protagonists. We have rugged lesbian cowgirl Jo Marchal who has moved back home to be near to her dying father. Her parents do not accept her sexuality and after years ofRead More
Tierney reviews Can You Hear Me? by Geonn Cannon

Shira Glassman reviews That Could Be Enough by Alyssa Cole
That Could Be Enough, the lesbian offering in the early American romance collection Hamilton’s Battalion, is everything a gentle historical f/f romance should be. Both characters, Mercy the servant/secretary and Andromeda the dressmaker, are fully fleshed out even within the novella’s small scope — it feels fully complete and I truly felt like I watchedRead More
Megan Casey reviews Swamp Girl by Iza Moreau
There was a recent article in The Washington Post about young adult novels written from the queer perspective. The gist of the article was that these novels “have begun to feel mainstream.” I’m sure that this is true to some extent; that a queer point of view is becoming increasingly more accepted by today’s readers,Read More
Elinor Zimmerman reviews Set the Stage by Karis Walsh
When I picked up this book, I wasn’t sure if a romance set in the Oregon Shakespeare Festival would really be my thing because I’m not a theater person. But Walsh’s vivid descriptions of Ashland, Oregon, of the festival, and of her lead’s clashing career paths were so charming that I was transported. If youRead More
Sarah reviews Intersection by Nancy Ann Healy
Intersection is a romance/thriller featuring an FBI agent and a politician’s ex-wife. Although I wanted to fall in love with the book—the first in a series—it fell short for me in a number of different ways, and I don’t see myself picking up the sequels. The novel kicks off with Agent Alex Toles andRead More
