In Camelot’s Shadow is not a relaxing read. I was sitting on the edge of my seat for most of this book wondering how the lead characters could possibly prevail over the evil they had to overcome. I also have a confession: I really don’t know the “true” telling of Camelot. The last Camelot story…
I’ll admit it right of the bat; I am a little biased when it comes to Kenyon’s Dark Hunter series. I read my first one a few months ago and in a matter of days emptied my monthly book budget reading the backlist. Call me a fangirl, but Kiss of the Night is not to…
Reading this series of books has been one of my highlights of the past year. I love these books and cannot recommend them highly enough. This third entry is no exception. Although it has a Romeo and Juliet type storyline, the ending is much, much better. The inhabitants of the planet Celta possess paranormal powers…
Kissed by Magic snuck up on me. It had a rather slow start, but as I read further and further, I realized I was enjoying it more and more. It’s always nice to enjoy an author’s debut novel, and I can say I finished this one with a smile on my face. Pixies Allegro and…
While I found The Charmed Sphere a quick and intriguing read, there’s something missing that keeps me from unequivocally recommending it to readers. The kingdom of Aronsdale is at a crossroads. The king is dying and his heir needs a queen. So to the castle of Sun Croft two girls are brought: Chime Headwind and…
I’m not a stickler for absolute reality in my romances. Heaven knows, I’ve loved more than one historical romance with a backdrop so flimsy you could practically see it wobbling whenever someone breathed heavily. But Laura Marie Altom’s Kissing Frogs doesn’t manage to stay consistent even with itself, which is an entirely different matter. And,…
Mercedes Lackey has a lot of fun playing with fairy tales in The Fairy Godmother, and the feeling is infectious. A charming and engaging book, it gets Harlequin’s new Luna fantasy imprint off to a promising start. In the Five Hundred Kingdoms, legends aren’t just stories, they’re ways of life. A force known as The…
Maybe I’ve been watching too much Newlyweds, but every time I think of the title of this book, I think tuna. It’s just too close to Chicken of the Sea. Goddess of the Sea combines lavish descriptions, modern sensibilities and mythological characters for a mildly entertaining story. Christine Canady (CC), an Air Force sergeant, decides…
Dance with the Devil picks up right where Night Embrace left off. At least that’s what I’m assuming based on the names of the lead characters in the review of the prequel (without having read the previous books in this series). There are so many secondary characters and brief mentions about back-story and memories that…
When I first read the brief plot description of A Greek God at the Ladies’ Club on the list of books available for review, I was taken by what seemed to be a charming premise. And it is. But, despite the fact that I started the book interested and intrigued, the author’s execution of her…
