Until Max Monroe’s Tapping the Billionaire, I had never been asked to read elsewhere because my reading was disturbing someone. Huh? I cry silently, laugh internally and rarely even alter my stoic facial expression when I read. I am NOT a demonstrative reader – until now. I honestly could not control my outbursts of giggling…
a DIKlassic review review originally published on February 22, 2001 I was a little doubtful when I picked up Into the Woods, because it’s based on the fairy tale “Hansel and Gretel.” Have you read it lately? “Hansel and Gretel” is about two children who are abandoned like an unwanted litter of puppies by their…
I’m a sucker for romances set on college campuses and this definitely fits the bill, with a college librarian as heroine and history professor as hero. At times laugh out loud funny, this was also always spot-on with insights into academia, while still featuring a sexy friends-to-lovers plot. I can definitely recommend this. In fact,…
Helen Lee is stuck in quite a quandary. She dreams nonstop of becoming a successful romance novelist, but she’s been repeatedly rejected by publishers because she cannot write a love scene convincingly; even though she has experience in the subject, she’s having a hard time translating that experience to the page. So focused on her…
I finished The Hating Game and immediately emailed my editor, sister, mom, and hairdresser to tell them about it. A couple of things you should know – first and foremost, I review and recommend a lot of books, BUT – I don’t LOVE a lot of books. And second, my parents (but most especially my mom) are…
Mira Lyn Kelly starts off her new romantic comedy series with a delightful concept. The Best Men is a set of novels featuring four male friends who keep ending up in wedding parties together, through a combination of family, friends and fate. The movie Four Weddings and a Funeral came to mind when I heard…
I’ve enjoyed some of Alice Clayton’s books in the past. After reading Wallbanger, I realized I could count on her for a well-written, laugh-out-loud romance novel full of jokes and innuendos. Although I try to stay on top of the release schedules for authors I like, Nuts somehow wasn’t on my radar. As soon as…
Captain Ivan Vorpatril, cousin of the famous (notorious?) Miles Vorkosigan, agrees as a favor to informally check on a woman who has drawn the interest of some criminals under investigation. Never immune to stunningly gorgeous women, especially ones in distress, Ivan finds himself sucked into a situation as convoluted as anything his Miles has ever…
This second entry in Nalini Singh’s Rock Kiss series is a completely delightful experience in audio. While both the hero and heroine have major issues from the past, this is my “favorite funny” romance of 2015. Ms. Singh deftly intertwines the true grief and trauma experienced by the characters with sparkling wit. She never downplays…
Now that I’ve finished Courtney Milan’s Once Upon a Marquess, I am very excited about the next book in her new series. This novel has a different feel to it than many of her previous books, but it is a feel that is unique and refreshing. Though many grumbled when the book was not released…
