Seressia Glass impressed me with her first romance, The Love Con, and Game On continues her pattern of writing wonderful love stories in which modern people find true love through hard work on themselves and on the world around them. Samara Reynolds knows all too well what it’s like to face harassment from all sides,…
This is a fun, solid-boned little romp that skimps not a wit of its action for its romance and vice-versa. Raiders of the Lost Heart combines a little dash of Indiana Jones with a big dash of Romancing the Stone and comes up with a brew that’s fast-paced, sexy, funny, and easy to get into….
A creepy house. Seven semi-estranged friends. One stranger. Mysterious events. Nalini Singh’s latest thriller, There Should Have Been Eight, had me thinking of Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None, although the tales vary in significant ways. Still, if you are looking for a solid locked-room thriller and love the vibe of Christie’s old novel,…
Fancy Meeting You Here is a fun, fast-paced romance with fairly low stakes but a whole lot of chemistry under the hood. It’s romantic and quite fun, with a winning hero and heroine. Elise Ngo is in mega bridesmaid mode. All three of her closest friends are getting married within months of each other, and…
Next-Door Nemesis is a lovely, fun contemporary romance that will put a smile on your face and provide a few hours of escape from the stress inspired by the oncoming holidays. They were once best friends. Collins Carter and Nate (Nathaniel) Adams were nearly inseparable during their elementary school years, but high school saw a…
Courtney Milan is such a good storyteller and The Marquis Who Mustn’t is another winner from this author. I was immediately caught up in this story which features a mystery, a con scheme, and a fake engagement along with a delightful cast of family and friends. Naomi Kwan grew up in Wedgeford (the series is set in…
I found The Leftover Woman hard to grade. It kept me reading, but I can’t say I enjoyed it. If you are looking for an exploration of what it might be like to be a mother affected by China’s One Child policy, this could be the story for you. Maybe. Jasmine was never wanted. In…
If you could do the Time Warp back to 2001, you might love Stacey Abrams’ re-release, The Art of Desire. Nowadays Abrams isn’t separating her powerhouse political brilliance behind the romantic suspense pseudonym of Selena Montgomery, but in this re-issue, she’s thrust her literary chops back two decades to a time when she was an…
Secret Heir for Christmas is the fourth book in the Devereaux Inc. series, and although there are a number of siblings/cousins/friends from previous books making cameos, I don’t think it’s necessary to have read their books in order to jump into this one. It’s a quick read featuring a couple in their late thirties who…
The Mis-Arrangement of Sana Saeed is one of those books that has a determined and imperfect heroine – and one hell of a groanworthy plot choice. Reading yet another book with a manipulative Desi mom forcing her daughter to get married by holding something major over her head is just dismaying, but parts of the…
