I know some folks are a little burned out on vampires, but I still enjoy a good vampire book now and again and the cover blurb for Sunrise in a Garden of Love and Evil made me curious. It’s part of Dorchester’s Publisher’s Pledge program, a program designed to promote books it considers particularly special…
Yes, I am tired of vampires. Yes, the title The Vampire and the Virgin is silly, but yes, I sat up late happily reading it. Any romance fan who’s been reading the genre for any length of time knows that a very good book can hide behind a very silly title – and that’s exactly…
I’m very picky when it comes to vampire romances – not just anything will do. Lara Adrian is a paranormal author who usually delivers for me and she continues to do so with Shades of Midnight, the latest installment in her Midnight Breed series. Alexandra Maguire is an Alaskan bush pilot recovering from the loss…
Writing this review, I was reminded of an old Disney song: “For every high, there is a low/For every stop, there is a go.” I find it’s the nature of C grade books that for every Good, there’s a big fat But, and the first installment in Sarah McCarty’s new Shadow Wrangler series is no…
Nice Girls Don’t Date Dead Men continues the adventures of Jane Jameson, former children’s librarian turned vampire. While I will admit to being tired of the undead, I will make an exception for Jane. This is one of the funniest books I have read this year and Jane is a delightful character. In Nice Girls…
Frankie Suchet, a bartender living in modern day New York, has a serious grudge against Henri Foucault: In 1794 he turned her into a vampire and she hates it. So, when she gets the chance to travel back in time to kill him before he turns her into a blood-sucking monster, she grabs it with…
Saving Midnight follows Breaking Midnight and Kissing Midnight in The Fitz Clare Chronicles. Since I haven’t read the first two books in the series, I was afraid I’d be totally at sea, but I was not as lost as I thought. Even so, I suspect that someone who has read the other books in the…
Forbidden Nights With a Vampire is the sometimes funny, sometimes poignant tale of Vanda Barkowski, a vampire who has a problem with her temper. I read Kerrelyn Sparks’s first book in this series, How to Marry a Millionaire Vampire, but not the others, something I plan to remedy as soon as possible – I really…
I’m a big – big – fan of Emma Holly who writes hot sex as well as great couples. I’m also a big – big – fan of stories in a series that stand on their own. They usually encompass a larger world of characters, but provide sufficient focus on two main ones. So when…
More than most books, I think, this one isn’t going to change any minds. If you’re expecting to like it, you will. If you’re not, then you probably won’t. And, yep, to put to rest an issue that’s still out there, this first hardcover in the author’s Black Dagger Brotherhood series definitely qualifies as urban…
