I have a confession to make: I’ve never enjoyed a stand-alone title by Nora Roberts. Her connected books, though, are quite another story. This is the first title in the Circle trilogy, and it’s a good thing that the other books will follow quickly, because I cannot wait! Many of her connected books contain more…
Although designated a Mystery on its spine, The Cameo Clue reads as a romantic suspense novel and will keep romance readers happy as the heroine chooses between two very different heroes and solves a dandy mystery in the bargain. After a few years floating around the world teaching English on army bases, Katherine Kale finally…
No Man’s Bride is the first book in a new series called Misadventures in Matrimony. It features four friends who form the “Spinsters’ Club” and swear never to marry. They all have different reasons for this. Some are strong willed. One wants to be a pirate (yes, really). The heroine of this book, Catherine Fullbright,…
Ready for a new series featuring a group of super-hunky paranormal warriors with a duty to protect humankind from all kinds of demonic and quasi-mortal bad guys? Well, whether you want it or not, you’ve got one, this time by Gothic historical romance author Jennifer St. Giles. I’ll admit that all this paranormal stuff is…
I’ve been looking forward to this book. The eighth book in The Elliotts continuity series, Marriage Terms is the first to feature a child (rather than a grandchild) of the patriarch. Daniel Elliott got his first wife pregnant when he’d barely finished high school. His father forced him to marry Amanda, the woman carrying his…
Olivia Gates has a winner in Strong Medicine. It may have arrived late on the list of AAR books to review, but I was glad it did, for I got to read this terrific action thriller. Dr. Calista St. James is tending to villagers in Sudan when her mission leader, Damian De Luna, orders her…
Can we call a halt to that cover? You know the one I mean, the one with the shirtless man standing in an inappropriate setting with a woman clinging to his leg with her dress about to fall off. Robyn DeHart’s Deliciously Wicked has a particularly bad version of this cover redeemed only by the…
This romantic suspense story offers readers the best of both worlds: an eerily compelling mystery, and a sweet love story with a satisfying resolution. While the mystery is likely to make more of an impact on the reader than the romance, both parts of the plot are well thought out and believable. Elizabeth Conners is…
I know self-deprecating, beautiful, sweet-natured women, aka “good girls”, are a norm in romance writing, and I usually enjoy such a heroine. But when one of these kind, thoughtful women decides to take on the role of sexpot to seduce an unknown man as well as wreck his life all for the sake of her…
