Margaret Brownley starts off a brand-new series of humorous historical westerns with Cowboy Charm School, the first book in the Haywire Brides saga. From the back blurb: Texas Ranger Brett Tucker hates to break up a wedding, but the groom—notorious criminal Frank Foster—is a danger to any woman. So he busts into the church, guns…
Début author? Western romance? Why yes, sign me up please. Bound for Eden is quite unlike most of the Westerns I’ve read, but once I got into it, I quite enjoyed myself. This novel has plenty of adventure, but pairs it with a light and humorous tone which makes for quite the wagon train romp….
Emma Barry and Genevieve Turner’s continuing series about life and love among astronauts and aeronautic engineers working on the American space program in the 1960’s continues with Free Fall, a charming entry about an emerging society girl and the up and coming astronaut who impregnates her. Vivian – Vivvy – Muller, college student and sorority…

All Decades novel are standalone books, so you…
In this sweet romance from Kianna Alexander, it’s 1946 and Warner Hughes has just returned from war. He’s got what we now know as PTSD and most of the town gives him a wide berth due to it. Our kind-hearted heroine, Elizabeth – Betty – Daniels is the exception. She’s a gifted musician and her…
Fabulous historical tales can be hard to come by which is why I treasure the work of Elizabeth Camden. Able to combine real history with sweet romance, she is a master of her craft. Her latest novel, A Daring Venture, continues the story of the history of clean water in New York begun in A…
A Touch of Flame is the kind of book you want to disappear into. A strong-and-silent-type sheriff meets a clever, independent doctor, and sparks fly. Set in a lively town with well-developed supporting characters, this story has Ms. Goodman’s trademark mix of emotion and humor; I was more than happy to forget the world for…
