This is my very first A.J. Pine book, and her confident storytelling and likable characters have convinced me to keep her on my to-watch pile. A good story with likeable characters, Holding Out for a Cowboy is missing a few ingredients that keep it from hitting DIK range, but is still compelling.

At the end of Burning Season, the third published book in Rachel Ember’s Wild Ones series, the epilogue saw the arrival, on Bo and Dylan’s doorstep, of Dylan’s great-nephew, Johnny Chase. I still haven’t had time to read books one and two in the series, but I managed to pick up enough here ...

‘Tis a good day to be a romance book reviewer; A.M. Arthur hath stole my heart. (Post-reading afterglows bring out the poet in me.) I’m not sure how Arthur’s Clean Slate Ranch series has escaped my notice, but now that I’ve found her, I shan’t let her go.

A sexy marriage-in-trouble story, Strong, Silent Type is a quick but satisfying read.
Misunderstandings have pushed librarian Libby and rancher Quinn McKay apart, but grappling with infertility is the root cause of most of their issues.
