I admit it: I love amnesia books, especially where the amnesiac is the hero. I know it’s overused and medically inaccurate, but something about a strong man made uncertain and confused by a loss of memory really appeals to me. It’s not just an effective romance novel plot point, either: I’ve read excellent amnesia books…
Does your significant other wonder why you are so fond of romance? Is he a fan of mysteries and suspense and would not dream of reading a romance novel? Do the covers of romance turn him off? Well then, slip him a copy of Susan Andersen’s Exposure, a wonderful romance novel in suspense novel’s clothing….
Had my sister not recommended Mr. Family to me, I probably wouldn’t have picked it up. The cover is ultra precious, and the title is just plain bad. But I trust my sister and I’ve read Margot Early before so I figured, “What the heck.” I really wasn’t expecting a story as touching as this…
Wow. There’s really nothing more I can say that would convey my reaction to Kathleen Korbel’s Some Men’s Dreams better than that. It’s simply phenomenal, a book that manages to deliver more deep emotions, intense scenes, remarkable characters and beautiful writing than books twice its length. What Korbel accomplishes within its pages is truly incredible….
After several angsty reads, I was really in the mood for a pick-me-up, and Diane Farr’s Under the Wishing Star fit the bill perfectly. This is a funny, sweet, uncomplicated, and touching love story. <!– var browName = navigator.appName; var SiteID = 1; var ZoneID = 4; var browDateTime = (new Date()).getTime(); if (browName=='Netscape') {…
The Last of the Honky Tonk Angels is a true sequel to The Second Coming of Lucy Hatch in that the action of the story picks up right where the first one left off in Mooney, Texas. Since I very much enjoyed Lucy Hatch I was eagerly anticipating the sequel. I’m pleased to say that…
2002 has not been a good year for me when it comes to series romances. I have been cowboyed, secret babied and sheiked to the point where even my easy going self is about to scream “enough already!” One day at the used bookstore, I went on an extended browse and settled on Karen Templeton’s…
One thing that I am learning slowly, painfully slowly, as both a reader and reviewer, is not to limit myself. When I say “I don’t like (insert type) romances,” this pronouncement invariably comes back to bite me in the butt. I used to say I didn’t like “secret baby” romances, but then I read Everyday,…
Finally – a Desert Isle Keeper for me! I’m pretty sure that this is my first for this year, and I’m thankful. Luanne Rice’s latest story has a touch of magic, lots of love, and a hero I loved, even when he was being a jerk. May Taylor is a wedding planner and a single…
The bad boy is a staple of the romance novel. We readers love a black leather clad, motorcycle riding, dangerous, handsome-as-sin, swaggering bad boy – especially when he is paired with a sweet, quiet, shy, good girl. Yes, we’ve met both these characters many times before, but in The Return of Luke McGuire, Justine Davis…
