The Billionaire Next Door is the first in a trilogy about three brothers. While 2007 hasn’t been a good year for me when it comes to series romance, this book is a winner. I started reading it and didn’t put it down till I finished it and right now I want to read it again….
When I go in search of a new book to read, series romances are not the place I normally start for a number of reasons. Largely, I find them to be decent reads, but nothing spectacular. This book, one of Harlequin’s Superromances, was just that: a reasonably good read, but not particularly fantastic. Maggie Fitzgerald…
In my experience books in the Blaze series tend to focus their plots within the bedroom. Because I’m more interested in reading books that focus outside of it, I tend to stay away from them. However, I was pleasantly surprised with Underneath It All. The author manages to combine great sex with an intriguing and…
I’m always delighted to find romance written by men, as I feel that there is a slightly different perception of how the relationship develops, or at least I like to read them to see if I can detect a difference. One such romance is Wayne Jordan’s One Gentle Knight, the first installment of the Knight…
As I started reading A Guilty Affair, it occured to me that the characters in this book seemed more real to me than the those in the average series romance. Instead of billionaire businessmen and heiresses to lost thrones, I had the chance to lose myself in the story of a reporter and a private…
In a genre where nearly every type of plot has been done to death, there’s no denying the power of a good idea. And Kelley St. John is an author who has some good ideas. I’m going to have to eat my words somewhat here, because when I read another St. John book, Real Women…
One of the more welcome aspects of Linda Howard’s Raintree: Inferno was its originality, as it contained none of the usual series romance hooks or gimmicks. Of course, her collaborators in the Raintree trilogy write for Silhouette on a more regular basis these days, and they know what side their bread is buttered on. So…
Why can’t all series romances be this good? I suppose I should be grateful that they aren’t, otherwise I would have to buy each and every one, every month and forgo such inconsequential things as food, clothing and shelter. Bad For Each Other is one of the best romances I have ever read and head…
Cathy Yardley is one Blaze author I make a point to read. Even when her books don’t entirely work for me (as was the case with her last release, Jack & Jilted), they’re still a cut above the norm, mostly because they feature a strong story at their core. Her Blazes feel like stories with…
It almost pains me not to be able to give Lori Devoti’s Unbound a higher grade than the one you see above. It’s so sharply written that I actually sat up a little straighter while reading the first few pages, excited to see a series romance with such crisp prose. In addition, the author introduces…
