Kiss and Tell starts out with a TSTL moment by the heroine and doesn’t quite manage to recover. Marnie Wright is spending a little time with her dog Duchess at her late grandmother’s cabin in the woods. She’s trying to sort out her life – does she want to keep taking the easy way out,…
Miss Chadwick’s Champion has two elements that I usually prefer to avoid – supposed amnesia and a Big Secret. However, author McRae manages to weave these elements into a plot that is entertaining and believable. The end result will please most fans of Regency Romance Susanna Chadwick is an heiress who stands to inherit thousands…
Lydia Chin thought her latest case was going to be fairly simple. All fashion designer Genna Jing asked her to do was drop off the ransom so she could retrieve her stolen designs in time for her upcoming showing. At least it looked very simple. But the drop goes terribly awry, shots are fired, and…
I have a special place in my heart for traditional Regency Romances about married people. Unrequited love is tragic, but unrequited love within an indissolvable marriage is doubly so. Maybe that’s why, in spite of some problems, the story of Emily Delaforte and Baxter Delaforte, Marquis of Sedgley touched me. Lady Delafont’s Dilemma takes place…
Argh! Yet another person’s title given wrong. Emily Delafont, Marchioness of Sedgely is not Lady Delafont – she’s Lady Sedgely. It’s Lady Title, not Lady Surname! Is that so hard?! Plenty of other writers of both Regency Romance and historicals set in the regency period get the titles right. Where is that editor…. But you…
Gentle Persuasion is the sequel to Sharon Sala’s Always A Lady and like that book it is a very nice comfort read. The characters are all charming and likable, and the story moves along quite nicely. It isn’t until after you finish the book, that you realize that if Cole had only talked to Debbie…
I don’t know what’s worse – a book that starts out badly and stays bad or book that starts out terrific and goes down hill. Emerald falls under the latter category; this book starts out wonderfully, right in the heart of the action with a chase scene. It even manages to keep the momentum going…
Companions of the Night has a little bit of everything: action, adventure, suspense, and romance. It is written at the young adult level, so the gore and sensuality are more subdued, but it is fast-paced and interesting enough to keep any adult turning the pages. Kerry Nowicki is sixteen and the de facto caretaker of…
I’ve always liked Whitney, My Love. But recently, it has become a very guilty pleasure – kind of like buying a pint of Ben and Jerry’s and eating it in one sitting. In the years that I have been on line, I have seen it discussed countless times, and it comes up every so often…
You Belong to Me is the third in the ambitious twelve book Montana Mavericks series from Silhouette, and the only one in the series written by Jennifer Greene. It is also another “man finds out about his love child” story, which, although done tastefully by Greene, is a storyline just tad bit overdone to my…
