I think I’ve just overdosed. I’ve hit my limit. And it was Granite Man who did it. What limit? My tolerance quota for over-the-top, arrogant, know-it-all, harder than hard, tougher than tough, mean-spirited, hurtful alpha heroes. By the middle of this book, I knew exactly what was coming, exactly how our hero would behave, and…
Although I would be hard-pressed to say this is one of the best romance novels ever written, I will say that I enjoyed it enough to lose sleep over it. I started reading it at ten o’clock at night and didn’t quit until I finished it in the wee hours of the morning. The best…
To enjoy Swept Away, you are going to have to suspend disbelief, big time. Okay, romance is fantasy, so you can probably do that. But the heroes of these stories are so far out of reach, powerful, rich beyond imagining, it’s a stretch to believe that, at their cores, they are each just looking for…
With a title like The Bad Luck Wedding Cake, I was expecting a fun book, and I wasn’t disappointed. This book is brimming with laughs and charming, likeable characters.

One thing you can say about Suzanne Brockmann’s Tall, Dark and Dangerous mini-series – they are not chick books. There’s not a lot of description of clothing and accessories – unless you count the men’s uniforms, and there’s lots of action. Everyday, Average Jones is the kind of book you would get if you mixed…

When I read about a 17-year-old heroine, all I can think is, She is much too young for that, despite the historical appropriateness of her age. This is the 90’s after all, and many of us wouldn’t allow a 17-year-old to babysit for us, much less think about getting married and start producing wee bairns…
Private Fantasies is a light-hearted and pleasurable read that for this reader had some very sensually satisfying love scenes, including some hot phone sex.
