I have a soft spot for fairy tales. I guess I’ve been a sucker for them since I was a kid being tucked in at night with a couple of Grimm’s classics for bedtime fare. So, combining fairy tales and steamy romance is always a winner in my book. And, as the title implies, She’s…
Many years ago Maggie Shayne first introduced this couple in one of her Wings in the Night Silhouette Shadows series books. They were a secondary couple if I recall correctly, and I wondered if I would ever see them again. Better late than never, I always say. A quick recap from previously in the series:…
Lynn Kurland is one my favorite romance authors because of her great comic timing and natural writing. Star of the Morning kicks off her new trilogy in the fantasy medieval realm that she previously created for the novellas in the anthologies, To Weave a Web of Magic and The Queen In Winter. Her ending on…
My love for romance reading is based on many things, but I must admit that alluring heroes top that list. It seems that I seldom find one of those perfectly desirable heroes these days, but Jennifer St. Giles serves up such a delectable one in her latest release that I fear most other heroes will…
Sandra Hill’s time traveling Vikings are back for another trip. Rough and Ready has a lot of farcial episodes and plenty of ultra-hot sex, but it lacks the touch of poignancy that made the early books in this series something special. Torolf Magnusson, son of Magnus, the Very Virile Viking, time traveled from 11th century…
Jeri Smith-Ready’s first novel for the Luna imprint, Eyes of Crow, is an accessible read about a young woman dealing with her powers about knowing when Death comes to a person’s door. That said, the plot isn’t altogether exciting, and the heroine can best be described as somewhat dull. Rhia possesses the powers of the…
I think I am still suffering from general Regency withdrawal. Since the demise of the Signet and Zebra lines, I just haven’t had time to read many, although I have a good stockpile. With reading time at a premium, I tend to concentrate on newer books, so my stockpile remains largely untouched. Once fall hits,…
The Scarlet Thread is an adultery story with a sort of blame-the-victim twist. Sierra and Alejandro (Alex) Madrid, once high school sweethearts, have now been married – with two small children – for about ten years. They are very happy living the American dream in a small California town when Alex decides he’s got to…
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,…
Imagine you’re me… The new Kinley MacGregor comes in the mail. While not a fan of her alter ego Sherrilyn Kenyon, you have enjoyed her historical romances in the past. They might have been a shade wallpaper-esque, but were entertaining reads. Knowing that MacGregor has now stepped into the legend of Arthur and Camelot, a…
