Romantic Suspense
I’m late to the Lisa Marie Rice party, but it seems as if I’ve missed a big one. Still, while I enjoyed Dangerous Passion very much, doing so required a suspension of disbelief and acceptance of the fact that the author is out to tell a completely over-the-top fairy tale. And it is over the top. ...

Perhaps I’ve become a bit jaded in my reading, but I have to admit I almost didn’t sign up to review Leslie Parrish’s books because of the “A Black CATs Novel” tagline. I think I’ve read too many books with cheesy nicknames, which turned out to be cheesy books. I’m so glad I took a cha ...
Meet Dr. Lana Ericson, Project Manager for Material Transformation at Environmental Technology Research and Design, a research lab in southern California. Lana’s a genius of sorts and in her scientific research has developed enzymes that enhance the yield from edible crops. However, word’s out ...
I love it when romantic suspense authors write books that not only have me turning pages to see what will happen next, but also asking, "why?" Kate Brady does a fabulous job with this in the first part of One Scream Away. Not only does every chapter seem to bring a new revelation, but as I read, I ...
Allison Brennan’s newest is a romantic suspense with the emphasis strongly on the suspense. While I found the hero and heroine to be interesting, I was left wanting more romance and less graphic violence. <a href="http://www.likesbooks.com/banmanpro/a.aspx?ZoneID=4&Task=Click&M ...
Breakpoint is the fourth book in the High Risk series. This book stands alone, though there are several references to the event that brought the characters of the series together. The story started out interestingly enough, but sagged a lot in the middle and fell apart at the end. ...
I like quirkiness, really I do, but sometimes books and characters can be too quirky for their own good. This is true of I Shot You Babe, the latest in Lesley Langtry’s Greatest Hits series.
Coney Island (Cy) Bombay has a PhD in philosophy. Jobs in this area are not exactly thick on ...
Narrated by Laura Hicks
Only recently released in MP3 format, this 2001 romantic suspense is one of my most loved Brockmann books. My first impression was the need of a male narrator since there are so many male characters. Many of narrator Laura Hicks’ male voices sounded girlish but I was soo ...
I can see why Nina Bruhns is developing quite a fan base. Honestly, this sort of relentlessly non-stop action kind of book, usually isn’t my thing, but I enjoyed this one. Quite a bit. The set up is complicated. Nurse Rainie Martin meets ex CIA agent Kick Jackson at a singles g ...

I have read all of Linda Howard's books and up until a few years ago, I read them for her heroes, who with a few exceptions are alpha men of the best kind. However, lately I have been enjoying her heroines more. They are no longer the doormats of some of her earlier books (like Sarah Matthews from S ...
