Normally, a book like this would be way too sweet for me. I’m not that sentimental, but I can get all teary-eyed over a basket of puppies, and Song From The Sea was the book equivalent of a big-eyed puppy. Callista Melbourne’s father has promised her to Harold Carlyle, the son of a friend. Callie…
Uncommon Vows is my favorite among Mary Jo Putney’s books, more romantic to me than even the wonderful Shattered Rainbows. Putney’s only medieval begins under the omen of an eclipse of the moon whose light is devoured by shadow on the night of a Christmas tragedy. Fifteen year old Adrian de Lancey, a nobleman’s youngest…
Unforgettable by Meryl Sawyer is a complex story with interesting characters and a lot of twists and turns. It’s not perfect, but it’s a page turner. In an isolated area of the Hawaiian island Maui, Greg Braxton is training his dog, Dodger, in search and rescue. Dodger unexpectedly finds an unconscious young woman in a…
The fact that The Truest Heart is an amnesia story, combined with the information in the prologue, worried me. Samantha James definitely had the makings for a typical Big Misunderstanding story here. Fortunately for the reader she doesn’t go that route, and the story is a very pleasant and enjoyable surprise. After a failed attempt…
In the mood for a nice, comfortable, light read? Better save Forbidden for another day. But if you’re in the mood for a spellbinding story that burns with passions both emotional and physical, the kind that grabs your heart and kicks it around like a plane in turbulence for a few hours before bringing you…
Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast are fairy-tale stories that have been used in countless romance novels. While I love those tales and never tire of them, it was a most pleasant surprise to find Teresa Medeiros dusting off Sleeping Beauty for her delightfully funny and sometimes poignant new book, A Kiss to Remember. I…
It is difficult to think of a way to describe Angel Falls that will not turn off readers who hate amnesia stories. This book, technically speaking, is an amnesia story, that is it is a story where one of the main characters, the heroine, gets amnesia. But saying that Angel Falls is an amnesia story…
I admit, once in a while, like, let’s say, when I’ve had it with my day job, I dive into my little fantasy of having some sexy, mysterious man take me away to a deserted island, where I am surrounded by luxury and don’t have to deal with petty office politics. After reading this book,…
Once in a while you run across a romance that is a wonderful, re-readable keeper in every way, but which is very difficult to review. In the case of Prince of Shadows, the difficulty in reviewing it is mainly based on having to elaborate why I love it. That’s the price of being an avid…
I usually run far, far away from baby and amnesia stories. So you’d think I’d hate You Were On My Mind, Margot Early’s first novel in her Midwives series. It features a midwife who has lost all but the last ten years of her life, and who also appears to be about ten months pregnant…
