Reviews of APATHY


Scarlet Blackwell has captured the essence of true love. Two people who are meant only for each other, and who manage to be apart are a painful pair indeed, and Kristian is at the mercy of his pain and loss.

Rating: 5 out of 5 HEARTS

Apathy by Scarlet Blackwell is a very short novella at only twenty five pages, but it is packed with such intense emotions. This book shows us that we can’t help who we fall in love with, and sometimes, you just have to let yourself love, and not care what others think.

Rating:  41/2 Delightful Divas

This is a story about stubborn foolish misplaced reactions. There’s more than a large helping of loss. But dessert comes in the form of second chances. 

Rating:  41/2 stars

At moments, my indecision and failed attempts at love reminded me so much of Kristian I thought Ms. Blackwell wrote this story about me.

Reviews of LIFE CLASS


I enjoy the way Scarlet Blackwell writes a book. This is the second one I have picked up and both books have had compelling and complicated characters that rang true. I can feel her characters and get emotionally attached to them. They aren’t perfect. They don’t make the right decisions all the time. In this book Ryan, a straight painter’s model/gigolo struggles so hard to understand himself without really trying to understand himself. I know so many men and boys that try to shortcut their emotions like this.

I
I closed LIFE CLASS with a sense of satisfaction and the slight disappointment that it was over. That hasn’t happened to me in a long time.

Reviews of JUST DESSERTS

This is one of the funniest romances I’ve read in a long time.  The characters have a sharp, naughty wit that they use like master warriors.

Just Desserts is awash in layer upon layer of sensuality and flavours, so much so that I couldn’t tell where one left off and the other began....Pick up a copy of Just Desserts – you won’t regret it. Highly recommended.

Reviews of AND SO IS LOVE

Scarlet Blackwell has created two amazing characters and set them in one of the most difficult situations a human can find themselves in...Read the story and you’ll love it as much as I did.

Rating: 4 1/2 out of 5 kisses

I’ll begin simply by saying I loved this story. Dane and Bailey are two complex well-developed characters...The story gives us a glimpse of the social injustices that inmates face, but it also showed how love can be formed even under less ideal circumstances. I hope to read more from this fantastic author in the near future.

Reviews of SECOND HELPINGS

Scarlet Blackwell has scored another hit with Second Helpings, the second release in her new Table for Two trilogy. It’s a humorous and fast paced look into the quirky and often volatile relationship of new lovers Luc and Daniel....There are many pleasant moments in this short gem but the one that truly stands up strong and proud is when Daniel confronts his personal demons.

Rating: 4 1/2 out of 5 nymphs

Let me begin by saying I am a huge fan of the first book Just Desserts and the second in the series was no exception. I love Miss Blackwell’s writing and I enjoy her imperfect characters a lot. Second Helpings offers up a great sequel and stays true to the main characters, delights with great humour and sizzling sex.

Reviews of A VAMPIRE IN WHITECHAPEL

In a time when the market is heavily saturated with vampire tales, Scarlet Blackwell provides us with a refreshing twist of horror. This short tale is slick and icy cold.... A Vampire in Whitechapel is a recommended read for any fan of vampires and the horror genre.

Reviews of SECONDHAND HEART

Secondhand Heart is a labor of love. My advice is to have some tissues handy when you read this book...I’ve read several books by Ms. Blackwell, and so far, this is by far my favorite.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars (Top Pick)

Read more at Night Owl Reviews


...Secondhand Heart is a deep, rich story about life while grieving that switches mid-book to a story about coming out of grief. It has a happy, life-affirming ending that just might have you reaching for your hanky. It's one of the most satisfying stories I have read in a long time...

Reviews of INTO THE LIGHT

Ms. Blackwell has written a moving tale of tragedy, guilt, self-hate, love and hope. For the first book in a series, I can only hope the rest are just as amazing.

Reviews of ANTHOLOGY VOLUME 1

...Through the use of characters who each embody our own strengths and weaknesses, Anthology (Volume One) examines the difference between what it means to be alone and to be lonely. It explores the wants and needs, the thoughts and desires, the black and the white, and the sometimes gray area of love, sensuality, and desire, and does so in stories that range from fabulous to outright stellar...

Reviews of THE CAPTAIN'S BELOVED



...Ms. Blackwell kept me on the edge of my seat for one afternoon. It was impossible to stop reading. I had to find out what happened next. This story is wild passion, conflict, fury, tenderness, one steady, outrageous roller coaster ride for the emotions. This is erotic romance at its best. It’s definitely got a special spot reserved on my keeper shelf.

Reviews of THE GOLDEN HAIRED BOY

I loved this book! Both characters are interesting and I thought the story itself had a unique spin to it that made it read very fresh and entertaining read... I LOVED watching these two men fall in love and I hated to see the book come to an end. Golden Haired Boy has earned a place on my keeper shelf where I know I’ll be re-reading it again many times in the future.
