I’ve been using the 12 in 2012 Reading Challenge on the Potpourri Board to encourage me to clear off my TBR pile and to read new to me sub-genres. Lovers lost in time is not exactly new to me, but it is a sub-genre I don’t read very often. I’m glad I picked it for…
I have very few authors on my auto-buy list. Susanna Kearsley – who writes haunting, lyrical works which combine romance and history – is one of them. In her latest novel she mixes time-travel and history to tell us a tale of love and murder. It’s a compelling story and one I am thrilled to…
Often at Speaking of Audiobooks, we complied short reviews and commentary on popular audiobooks as early on, Lea only wrote what she referred to as “mini reviews” although there was much to say about the audio. Kiss of the Highlander is one such book. All content is written by Lea. Favorite Romance Audiobooks Poll Winner:…
I have a select few books that I like to pull out frequently to reread during the Christmas season. The Best Gift will definitely join their ranks. Though one need not read If Only in My Dreams to follow the plot of this book, it would probably help enrich the experience as both books (written…
I will give almost any time travel romance a shot and I think it’s because of the fated aspect of the romance – that shot of kismet that will draw a woman or man from present times to a time in the past in order to be with their soul’s mate. I’ve read a lot…
Historical author Hope Tarr makes her contemporary debut with It’s a Wonderfully Sexy Life, the third of Harlequin’s Extreme Blazes. This holiday-themed tale makes a few missteps, but overall it’s an enjoyable read. Baltimore cop Mandy Delinski doesn’t think she has much to celebrate this Christmas. It’s starting to look like she’ll never make detective,…
I am always eager to get my hands on a good time travel book. Some of my all- time faves feature time travel. I will generally give anything in this genre a shot. Not being a big fan of the Roaring Twenties, I’m glad I pick this one despite the time period. Dora Duncan is…
Well, it’s obvious that I’ve been missing out on some good fun by not managing to get around to reading Sandra Hill’s Viking/Time Travel series until now. Simultaneously silly, goofy, sexy, and smart, Wet and Wild is one of the funniest and most charming books I’ve read this year. Ragnor Magnusson has had enough with…
Harper Allen’s The Man That Got Away is one of the most original debut romances I’ve ever come across, and one of my favorites. A time-travel romance with an unusual setting – 1930s Hollywood – it’s brimming over with creativity, excitement, emotion and a lot of heart. Most of all, it’s just a lot of…
There are plenty of romances with humorous covers that don’t reflect the serious story inside. But I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a cover this serious on a book as unserious as Master of Ecstasy. The cover is so dark and brooding most readers would never guess what a goofy and outlandish story lurks inside….
