This book had the promise to be the sort of fantasy story that I love. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, it’s filled with colorful, funny characters, and the magical element exists in a way that could potentially screw up the whole world – but so far only makes life a little crazy. However, the…
Men in Blue features three novellas with police officers as the main characters. I’ve always liked romances featuring characters in law enforcement and one of my guilty pleasures is watching COPS on TV. Alas, only one of these stories was any good.
There’s a fine distinction between ennui and boredom. Ennui is having fun talking about how bored you are while true boredom is one of the most frustrating things on the planet. That was my experience with Ms. Hart’s latest book. Fielding Grey, treasure hunter, has been hired by Solomon’s, a club devoted to scholars of…
Though I’ve never read Caitlin Kittredge before, as soon as I saw descriptions of this book, I knew I had to read it. I’m a fan of Simon R. Green’s Nightside series, to which this tale bears a few similarities, and the darkness-tinged characters in this book definitely caught my interest. Pete Caldecott is a…
Kiss It Better is such an understatement for this book. Kiss it better? More like suck, rub, squeeze or generally irritate it better. This book isn’t erotica; it’s just porn without plot. Not only is there no plot, but the author kept hinting at a larger conflict, which made me kind of interested in how…
Narrated by Laura Hicks Only recently released in MP3 format, this 2001 romantic suspense is one of my most loved Brockmann books. My first impression was the need of a male narrator since there are so many male characters. Many of narrator Laura Hicks’ male voices sounded girlish but I was soon so engrossed by…
Texas Hold Him by Lisa Cooke is a pleasant, but average wallpaper-y romance set in the post-Civil War South. Lottie Mason has 6 weeks to come up with $15,000 to pay off a blackmailer and keep her ailing father out of jail. But the Mason family isn’t doing well after the Civil War, and none…
If you, like me, grew up watching Aquaman cartoons, In Over Her Head might be the perfect book for you. Fennell drops us into an undersea world with Mers, ancient gods, talking fish, and sea monsters. Oh, and Atlantis and the Bermuda Triangle. Erica Peck finds herself between a rock and a wet place when…
I can see why Nina Bruhns is developing quite a fan base. Honestly, this sort of relentlessly non-stop action kind of book, usually isn’t my thing, but I enjoyed this one. Quite a bit. The set up is complicated. Nurse Rainie Martin meets ex CIA agent Kick Jackson at a singles gathering for medical professionals….
Sigh. Just what I need. Another author to glom. The Breeds are a secret genetically engineered species combining animal predators and humans, and 20 years ago the truth of the Breeds came out. Since then, they have fought for their rights and struggled against the prejudice still rampant amongst humans, while some humans support and…
