Emily Kirkland and Christopher Delgado are two high powered people who need to keep their relationship secret in Rochelle Alers’s Private Passions. If you are absent-minded and forget titles easily, no need to worry, because every other chapter ends with the heroine wondering why she can’t give in to her private passions. <!– var browName…
Unbreak My Heart combines romance, women’s fiction and romantic suspense in a novel that is a bit slow to start, but quick to pick up speed. For some, it may try to be too many things for too many people, sacrificing character for storyline. Shortly after nine year old Allie Bennett’s sister Megan was killed…
If you’re in the mood for something that’s not a romance but will still make you feel good, have I got the book for you! Ladies with Options is a delightful story about a group of women who make successes of themselves. The Mostly Methodist Club is a “mostly married, mostly middle-aged” group of ladies…
Lost and Found is a hardback by Jayne Ann Krentz that takes her farther from the romance genre and deeper into the arenas of mystery and suspense. While earlier releases are romances with suspense or mystery sub-plots, this new release is the reverse; the romance definitely takes a backseat to the elaborate mystery/suspense plotline. Longtime…
Don’t pick up this book looking for a fast read. Instead, expect a lovingly told story that can meander at times but makes you want to soak each word up and maybe appreciate your family a bit more. Because On Bear Mountain is above all other things a story about the power of family. Ursula…
I appreciate a good Gothic romance; as a teenager I cut my reading teeth on the works of Mary Stewart, Victoria Holt, and Phyllis A. Whitney. So I welcomed the news that LoveSpell was going to publish a line devoted to Gothics. But I gotta tell you, if Devil in the Dark is any indication…

Twins bring their parents back together, but with more disastrous circumstances. Daisy Tucker’s daughter, Sage, has run away. Daisy and Sage live in Connecticut. Daisy’s ex-husband James lives…
There are parts of The Blue Viking by Sandra Hill that I really didn’t care for, but there are also moments that are so funny that I didn’t mind too much. My impression of her writing is that it’s rather odd, at least for me; I don’t want to run out and buy all her…
As in The Veiled Web, author Asaro once again delves into a future where artificial intelligence is a reality with all the moral and ethical dilemmas it brings. Dr. Megan O’Flannery is an expert in the field of artificial intelligence, particularly where androids are concerned. When MindSim offers her the chance to head the team…
I’ll admit that this book puzzled me. It tried to be so many things at once that at the end I was hard-pressed to classify it properly for the review. Is it a romance? Not really; there are a couple of love stories in the book, but not really a romance as we know it….
