Running Wild ranks as the weirdest erotic romance I have ever read. I can only describe it as Swan Lake meets The Dread Pirate Roberts meets Romeo and Juliet meets Aladdin meets an I’ve-eaten-a-funky-mushroom dream sequence. It also reads a little bit like a high school health class, with ovulation and impregnation scattered all over…
Considering the talent behind Dogs and Goddesses, I’ll confess that I expected more than an amusing and fun story. I didn’t get it, but I did enjoy the ride. To put my reaction to this one in perspective, I liked it better than The Unfortunate Miss Fortunes, the first collaboration between Ms. Crusie and Ms….
Savannah Russe’s Dark Nights, Dark Dreams is the first in her new Sisterhood of the Sight series about a team of paranormal CIA agents. Sounds interesting, right? Unfortunately, this book was so not enjoyable, I won’t even think about looking at the next three. Sam Chase has a gift; a voice in her head tells…
With a title like this, I knew this book wasn’t going to be the next Dr. Zhivago. I looked forward to a light, funny story that would leave me in a good mood, but after reading this book, I couldn’t help but feel that it was actually too over-the-top and calculated in its pandemonium. The…
After reading favorable reviews of Jackie Kessler’s Hotter than Hell, book, I looked forward to reading it because it was supposed to be “something different.” Once I started, I just had to be nosy and peek to the ending, which I instantly regretted because I didn’t want to read it anymore. Though it’s being marketed…
Angela Knight’s Master of Wolves is part of her Mageverse series, and though I’ve been collecting it for a while, it’s actually only the second title in the series I’ve read. Unfortunately, I determined rather late that as far as “monsters” go, I prefer werewolves to vampires, which is why I’ve not gotten to most…
Of all the variations on fantasy romances, I’m least comfortable with those involving demons, so imagine my dismay when the romantic suspense I thought I was going to review turned out to be the first in Rita Herron’s new Demon Born series. I tried to keep an open mind, but Insatiable Desire failed to redeem…
If Wishing Made it So is a light and funny second chance at love story. It’s a textbook example of a pleasant summer read – nothing out of the ordinary, but good for several hours of fun. Hildy Caldwell was the smartest girl in high school and was voted the one most likely to succeed….
When Blythe offered me Sea Witch, she knew I’d jump at the chance to read and review a selkie romance. One of my two favorite romance short stories is a selkie story, and whenever I get the chance to mention John Sayles’ The Secret of Roan Inishe (like this), I do. Unfortunately, Virginia Kantra’s latest,…
The heroine of Gena Showalter’s The Darkest Kiss will probably win my nomination as the most annoying of the year. She’s not TSTL (actually she’s quite shrewd), but her actions and dialogue and the fact that I couldn’t identify with her at all made this otherwise good story and interesting hero nearly unbearable. As I…
