  • Cowgirl Up or Sell The Horse on Jan. 27, 2011
    (no rating)
    Tired of all those glossy lipstick lesbians with their fancy apartments, high paying jobs, gorgeous clothes and fantastic figures? Want to read about real, hard-working gals who get their hands dirty and their hearts broken? Then 'Cowboy Up or Sell the Horse' is the book for you. Genuine likeable characters along with great descriptions of life on a working horse ranch make this an enjoyable read. As to what happens when Coal meets Mary Leah, well you'll have to buy the book and find out for yourself, just like I did. You won't be sorry you did.
  • ISO (In Search Of): The Art of Dating, Relationships & Sex for the Discerning Lesbian on March 09, 2011
    star star star
    Whether you are a 'baby dyke', a newly out older woman or someone who has just been away from the 'dating scene' for a time, this book is an essential tool in your belt. Not only does Ms. Baeli provide thought provoking answers to all those obvious questions we all have, but you might find some information here about scenarios you had never even considered. Read it cover to cover or jump to the section you're most interested in, either way you will come away with plenty to think about. And a few chuckles along the way!
  • As You Were on March 09, 2011
    star star star star
    Review by: Noni Nelson on Mar. 09, 2011 : (no rating) (Remove) Four years ago, as a newly-out,mature lesbian and an avid reader I was staggered by the dearth of quality gay fiction for women. So disappointed in fact that I resorted to writing my own. If I had discovered Kelli Jae Baeli back then I may not have bothered! I was hooked from the first few pages of As You Were. Her characters are natural, their lives are believable and I devoured this book eagerly late into the night. And put it down with a genuine reluctance to part company with it's two main protagonists, Tru & Brittany.
  • Hopes All Things, Endures All Things on March 23, 2011
    star star star star
    There is one thing wrong - very very wrong - with Hopes All Things, Endures All Things. It is, quite simply, not long enough. I didn't want it to end, I didn't want to leave those mismatched lovers, Beatrice and Sylvia so soon. What an exquisite peon of praise to the power of love. J.K. Latimer-Read's delicate touch kept a smile hovering on my lips despite the occasional tears in my eyes.

    Mickey Derringer sometimes punches first and asks questions later; a habit that can get her into a lot of trouble. But, for me, her big heart and vulnerable underbelly made up for it. This author makes you care about what happens to Mickey, her love-interest and her friends as at the same time she takes you on a rip-roaring yarn full of suspense, twists and some thoroughly scary bits - all the hallmarks of a good detective novel. All told to a background of what kind of society gays might face in a future socially-engineered civil rights compromise. I was hooked from the get-go!
