Enjoyable, sweet romance with two people who seemed so different at first, but really had similar core values. I liked the time they spent getting to know one another and loved their conversations. There were little twists in the story, with some making the story interesting, and some making it slightly unbelievable. An easy read that made me smile.

Cat Scratch Fever by Jane Davitt (3.5 Stars)
Cute little romance with a human, a slightly magical elf, and a cat who is turned into a human. It includes some light humor, hot sex, and working through some relationship issues. It bothered me that Simon got so upset when Garin used his magic, until I found out why. After that point, it became a little sweeter. It would have worked even better if there hadn’t been so much happening or if the story had been longer. There were underlying problems with the relationship that I felt needed to be resolved.

Poacher’s Fall and Keeper’s Pledge (Midwinter Manor #1-2) by JL Merrow (4 Stars)
Reviewing these together made more sense, since I didn’t get the feeling of completion I wanted after the first one. The first story was sweet watching Danny help Philip appreciate life again. They spent a bit of time together while Philip helped Danny recover from an injury. Unfortunately, the second story was focused on family drama, and we rarely saw Danny and Philip together. I also didn’t understand how they could be together for four years and still seem to know so little about each other. It didn’t quite work as a romance for me, but I enjoyed the story and the characters. I also got the happy ending I was hoping for.
Moving in Rhythm by Dev Bentham (5 Stars)
I found the story fascinating and the character development completely absorbing. I can’t imagine how hard it would be living with such debilitating shyness, although the author did an excellent job putting me in Mark’s head. Mark stepped up to the plate when needed by his family no matter how hard it was for him. It was nice to see him finally take a small step forward for himself when he reached out to Seth. Seth was so understanding and went out of his way to try to make Mark more comfortable. These two made a wonderful couple, and I would love to see more of them. Fortunately, the author just posted a lovely snippet about them for Valentine’s Day here.
