I sincerely hope this book isn’t indicative of future offerings from ImaJinn books. I applaud the publisher’s effort to bring more paranormal elements into the romance genre, but if this is the best they can come up with, I foresee – even without the benefit of past-life regression to help me – problems in their…
A Springwater Christmas is a warm-hearted, rather sweet and predictable tale about acceptance, love and forgiveness that will get you in the holiday spirit. If you’ve read the previous books in the Springwater series, you’ll no doubt be thrilled with the reappearance of these fertile ladies and their numerous offspring. But if you’re like me…
Since A Heart Untamed is published under the Jove Friends Romance line, it is not surprising that friendship is a major theme in this book, which was co-written by Sherri Eddington and Donna Smith under the pseudonym Adrienne Burns. Rural Kansas in the late 1800s is the setting for this tale of four friends who…
I decided to read White Chocolate because I found the book’s cover interesting. It contained a close-up of the beautiful author, Elizabeth Atkins Bowman, and the synopsis was intriguing: a bi-racial TV journalist must face her past when the white supremacists she helped put behind bars are released and threaten her life. In this case,…
For once, here’s a paranormal book where the paranormal element is truly creepy. No cute ghosts out of the Funky Phantom cartoon. These manifestations are scary. Unfortunately, the main characters get caught in a cycle of deception and distrust, and unneeded details slow the pace unnecessarily. Devon James stays at the Stafford Inn with her…
Some romances are like popcorn – a light snack before you move onto something more substantial. Others are wonderful confections with spun sugar or air inside. And some are more substantial treats, where it’s not just what you are tasting but how you partake of it. If I had to equate reading My False Heart…
Spirit of Love is an entry in the Jove Haunting Hearts series, which suggests what to expect: a fairly light story with a ghostly slant. And indeed, this is what the book promises. I started reading anticipating a fluffy Western with a broad humor element, as well-bred Georgina heads West to deal with her supposedly…
If you’re looking for a gritty, suspenseful series romance and enjoy stories where love manages to bloom amidst darkness, you might want to keep your eyes peeled for Zebra’s newest entry in their Bouquet line, Somewhere In The Night. Bridget McKenzie is cursed with precognitive clairvoyance. She calls it a curse because her visions aren’t…
Time of the Wolf is dark. Anne Rice dark. Laurell K. Hamilton dark. Blood is drunk. Humans are tormented. The dead are rising. Creatures from the pit are called forth. Dark. Hey, I like dark. Dark is good. Even though publisher ImaJinn’s website states “ImaJinn Books specializes in romances dealing with the supernatural, paranormal, fantasy,…
When I was a girl, my grandmother used to give me paint-by-number kits for Christmas. I’d follow all the instructions and when I was finished I could see that what I’d accomplished was obviously a picture of something, but I never fooled myself into thinking I was Leonardo da Vinci. Reading Second Chance reminded me…
