Lola’s Kitchen: White Chocolate Mini Cheesecakes Recipe

Lola’s Kitchen is a feature on Lola’s Reviews where I talk about all things related to food, cooking and baking. These usually are recipe posts or more discussion type posts about food. I love cooking and spend some time in the kitchen almost every day, so I wanted to give it a place on my blog as well. The banner for this feature is designed by Michelle from Limabean Designs. While I don’t eat a lot of white chocolate, I can definitely appreciate some good white chocolate and combine it with cheesecake? That sounded like such an great idea. And […]

A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog. What happened this week? This week just didn’t go smoothly. There weren’t any big things that went wrong, I am not even sure why this week felt so off, but just the way the days progressed didn’t go smoothly. There were also some little things that threw me off my schedule a […]

Review: The One and Only Crystal Druid by Annette Marie

The One and Only Crystal Druid (The Guild Codex: Unveiled #1) by Annette Marie My Rating: 3 stars Genre: Urban Fantasy Age Category: Adult Type of romance: MF Blurb: I’m not your average girl. My best friend is my switchblade. My favorite hobby is using it on the cruel, the abusive, and anyone who gets on my bad side. I’m a convicted murderer with a chip on my shoulder and a dangerous lack of restraint. And then there’s Zak. His rap sheet makes mine look tame. The bounty on his head is worth more money than I’ll ever make, and […]

Review: Vampire Bound Book One by R.A. Steffan

Vampire Bound: Book One (Vampire Bound #1) by R.A. Steffan My Rating: 3 stars Genre: Urban Fantasy Age Category: Adult Type of romance: MF Blurb: Become a bartender at The Vixen’s Den, they said. The owner isn’t really a vampire, they said. It’ll be fun, they said. And suddenly I’m neck deep in a world I’ve never really believed in, no matter what my crazy Great Aunt Mabel used to say. Seriously, I have more than enough drama in my life already, without adding an irresistibly mesmerizing nightclub owner to the mix. My boss—a man with a penchant for trouble […]
