We’re kind of bamboozled by this book. It is completely out of any boundaries and expectations set for lesroms. It is twisting, twisted and throbs with secrets clawing to get out. It is intense and entirely immersive. 
First off: trigger warning – this book has rape driven by homophobic hate as its central theme. Having said that, this book is extremely well written and gently handled. 
This book is sheer awesomeness. Thoroughly immersive it just makes inroads into the mind and heart making it thoroughly unputdownable. 
This book is all sorts of wonderful and demands repeated readings. 
Short and sweet, this story of a single mom and a doctor is traditionally romantic. No angst, likeable MCs, a good cast of supporting characters, it is easy and cute. 
Sweet and smart…this is a children’s book aimed at 4 to 8 year-olds but it is just so awesome. Irrespective of your age, have a look at this one!
A light romcom aiming to entertain without any convoluted angst and succeeding in this goal.
DNF! DNF! DNF! And will never finish this one.
Fun, funny and likeable characters – Robin Alexander is a fail-safe choice for a light feel-good read. 
The opening scene? Funny, funny, funny. Moving further…totally got goosebumps with fluttering butterflies of emotion while reading about the growing attraction between the two MCs, Joslyn Simonini and Raven Malvolio.
Actually, 2.5 stars
Okay, we cannot be reviewing lesfic without touching the first lesfic writer that we ever became completely mesmerised by. While scouring all the Xena fanfic sites, we came across Melissa Good (aka Missy Good and Merwolf) and were completely captivated by the relationship she built between Xena and Gabrielle. Naturally, we devoured everything we could find by this writer. 
This was Melissa Brayden’s debut. Set in the world of theatre and film, this one has celebrities and co-stars falling for each other. 
We loved – absolutely LOVED – Jericho and went into this one with high hopes. But though the writing is strong and all the characters are still there, we were more than a little disappointed. What we expected was a new romance set in the town with the characters from the first book being present in supporting roles. What we got instead was just life going on with the same characters. 
This is a fanfic of a fanfic. Not too long back there was barely any lesfic and lesbian romances were even more scarce. Into that world, Xena exploded and spawned a number of sites dedicated to fan stories about Xena and Gabrielle. From pure fanfic, the Xena stories expanded into what was termed as ‘uber’ fiction where the MCs were still Xena and Gabirelle but with different names in different settings. Melissa Good* became one of the most popular authors and her uber fanfic introduced Dar and Kelly in Tropical Storm (published in 2006). Under a Falling Star is essentially Tropical Storm. The characters, the characterisations, the relationship, the relationship development, the interactions between the MCs and even some important plot points are all Tropical Storm.
Though this is the third book of a series, it is the first one we read, and rather liked it. In fact, it felt like a standalone book, which by itself is quite a win for the author.
