Victoria Recommends 25 Lesbian Novels For Jae’s Book Bingo The Lesbian Review Podcast Sheena is joined by Victoria today to talk about Victoria’s recommendations for all the categories in Jae’s Book Bingo.   Women In Uniform - Dangerous Waters by Radclyffe Audiobook Available: Yes Publisher: Bold Strokes Books Army National Guard Colonel Sawyer Kincaid has served her time dueling with death in the deserts of Africa. Now that she's home, the only sand she wants to see is on the beach in South Florida. Too bad Tropical Storm Leo, swiftly gaining strength out over the Atlantic, is about to draw her in to another life or death war, this time on home soil. Dr. Dara Sims has too many critical patients in the intensive care units at Miami Memorial to consider evacuation, no matter how determined the battle-hardened colonel is to make her. As far as Dara is concerned, evacuate is just another word for abandon. When a state of emergency becomes a state of siege waged by Leo, all she can do is hope the rising waters relent before she loses everyone, herself included.

Lucinda Hamilton settles down in sleepy Reverie, South Carolina, because she's running from the troubles of her past. But when her dangerous ex-husband evades law enforcement, she fears that no amount of running will ever make her safe again. Two women are determined to keep Lucinda's past at bay - the mysterious young nurse living on the other side of Lucinda's duplex, who won't even tell Lucinda her name, and Ardie Brown, an ex-marine who's recently moved back to Reverie herself. It's hard for Lucinda to trust either one of them; it's even harder to admit to herself that she's falling for both of them. What will happen when Lucinda's ex-husband finally catches up to her? Will the girl next door or Ardie have the power to stop him? Or will Lucinda finally have to face her past all by herself?   Get It On Amazon https://amzn.to/2UzDWh0 (link works for US, UK, Canada, Germany and Italy)   Fake Relationship – Casting Lacey by Elle Spencer Audiobook Available: Yes Publisher: Bold Strokes Books Coming out is easier when you've got someone by your side. At least that's how the hyper-private Quinn Kincaid sees it. When her publicist suggests a good old-fashioned sham of a Hollywood relationship, Quinn reluctantly agrees. And that's how the star of Jordan's Appeal, TV's highest rated legal drama, ends up with a fake girlfriend - the very real, very sexy, and very gay soap star Lacey Matthews. In Casting Lacey, Elle Spencer gives us a hilarious new take on a classic storyline, complete with nosy mothers, fawning assistants, and two beautiful actresses who might learn about true love. If they don't kill each other first.   Get It On Amazon https://amzn.to/2Ux99BK (link works for US, UK, Canada, Germany and Italy)   Romantic Comedy – Scissor Link by Georgette Kaplan Audiobook Available: No Publisher: Ylva Publishing In this kinky romcom, Wendy Cedar is an employee at Savin Aerospace with a massive crush on her boss, recent divorcee, Janet Lace. After Janet accidentally stumbles upon Wendy’s email about a sex dream she’s been having, she decides to see if the reality can live up to the fantasy. But when the relationship starts to be more than a kinky office romance, the two have to decide if they can make it as a couple or if they were better off as boss and employee.   Get It On Amazon https://amzn.to/2QGuARQ (link works for US, UK, Canada, Germany and Italy)   LGBTQIA – Perfect Rhythm by Jae Audiobook Available: Yes Publisher: Ylva Publishing Pop star Leontyne Blake might sing about love, but she stopped believing in it a long time ago. What women want is her image, not the real her. When her father has a stroke, she flees the spotlight and returns to her tiny Missouri hometown. In her childhood home, she meets small-town nurse Holly Drummond, who isn't impressed by Leo's fame at all. That isn't the only thing that makes Holly different from other women. She's also asexual. For her, dating is a minefield of expectations that she has decided to avoid. Can the tentative friendship between a burned-out pop star and a woman not interested in sex develop into something more despite their diverse expectations? Contains mature themes.   Get It On Amazon https://amzn.to/2L7HNh3 (link works for US, UK, Canada, Germany and Italy)   Science Fiction – Compass Rose by Anna Burke Audiobook Available: No Publisher: Bywater Books In the year 2513, the only thing higher than the seas is what’s at stake for those who sail them. Rose was born facing due north, with an inherent perception of cardinal points flowing through her veins. Her uncanny sense of direction earns her a coveted place among the Archipelago Fleet elite, but it also attracts the attention of Admiral Comita, who sends her on a secret mission deep into pirate territory. Accompanied by a ragtag crew of mercenaries and under the command of Miranda, a captain as bloodthirsty as she is alluring, Rose discovers the hard way that even the best sense of direction won’t be enough to keep her alive if she can’t learn to navigate something far more dangerous than the turbulent seas. Aboard the mercenary ship, Man o’ War, Rose learns quickly that trusting the wrong person can get you killed―and Miranda’s crew have no intention of making things easy for her―especially Miranda’s trusted first mate, Orca, who is as stubborn as she is brutal.   Get It On Amazon https://amzn.to/2QqIZSP (link works for US, UK, Canada, Germany and Italy)   Friends to Lovers – None So Blind by L.

But the world is a harsh place for anyone who is different.  Bri’s Aunt Olivia is a vet with a thriving practice. She is set in her ways, single and surviving, channeling her emotions into her work and her love of Bri.

But everything changes when Kyle starts having those kind of thoughts about her soccer teammate.  Things don’t get any easier when college starts and she heads off to play for a Division I squad. Figuring out how to pass her classes is one thing.

A born-and-bred city girl, Kennedy is sent to cover fishing in Alaska, which has her feeling just like a fish out of water. When Brynn Coleman, director of Alaska's Wildlife Rescue and Sanctuary, comes to her rescue time after time, Kennedy can't help but lower her guard and open herself up to Brynn's standoffish charm.

She's not expecting that the first girl to ever steal her heart, the pretty, popular Fallon Lewis is still around, and in a town this small, their paths continue to cross much to Remy’s dismay. It's hard enough seeing her first love, but it's exponentially more difficult when she can barely stand to look at the woman. Remy's trip back has the possibility to open up doors she believed were shut long ago, but she's never planned on staying, and she definitely never planned on letting Fallon back into her life.  If she thought being a teenager in a small town was hard, she's about to find out how much harder life is when there's no one but herself to blame for her problems.   Get It On Amazon https://amzn.to/2L62SbL (link works for US, UK, Canada, Germany and Italy)   Erotica – Knotted Legacy by Brenda Murphy Audiobook Available: No Publisher: NineStar Press Martha McLeod, Head Mistress of Rowan House, Skye’s most exclusive pleasure house, is heartbroken.

Only, she’s not a teenager anymore.
