Alright, I admit it. I read Don’t Let It Be True because of the cute little cupcake on the cover. I have a fairly persistent sweet tooth – and I nearly always listen to it. That said, it’s a pretty apt cover; this book is like a small, sweet treat, entirely composed of empty calories….
Growing up, I was never the kind of girl who daydreamed about rainbows and unicorns. Frankly, I never understood the fascination with unicorns. So when I chose to review a book about a cursed unicorn trapped in a man’s body – the king of unicorns, no less – I was prepared to read a story…
Robin Schone is an author I’ve been avoiding for a while. I don’t fancy myself masochistic, which is what I’ve ended up feeling like after reading some of her recent books. Fortunately, Cry for Passion is actually pretty good. Granted, it is deeply depressing and didn’t leave me in a particularly happy mood, but the…
I’ve written many a C review in my time; a quick check at the reviewer scorecard shows that I am approaching 200 of them. Books receive Cs for a variety of reasons, but generally it comes to down either mediocrity or unevenness. Going Down Hard is in the latter category. The good news is that…
As a kid, I read all the paranormal and gothic books I could lay my hands on and in high school and college, I was quite the fan of the Silhouette Shadows line. When Silhouette launched the Nocturne line, I was very excited. Though many of the books here are quite different in tone from…
Baubles meant to draw the eye to the privates were just not enough to make Seducing A Scottish Bride anything beyond mildly interesting. Gelis MacKenzie is the much sought-after, beautiful daughter of a powerful Scottish chieftain and a woman of magical abilities that she discovers shortly before her father is forced through a debt of…
I enjoy reading books set in unusual places, and picked Northern Lights to review because it’s set in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. While the author did a good job conveying what the area is like, I didn’t care for either the hero or heroine and can’t recommend this book. Judith Caldwell has fond memories…
Sherryl Woods has begun a new series featuring the members of an estranged Irish-American family who live on Chesapeake Bay. The Inn at Eagle Point introduces them, tells the story of the oldest daughter, Abby and sets the stage for the other character’s stories. While I wanted to like it, it was ultimately just too…
Although he is known for horror and thrillers, I’ve loved the way Dean Koontz often put a strong relationship in his novels. When I learned that his new novel was about a hero fighting to get a new heart and keep his girlfriend, I thought this could be classic Koontz again. Instead, it looks like…
Sometimes I’m in the mood for something light and fluffy – preferably light and fluffy with smart dialogue and/or a ripping good adventure involved. Confessions of a Little Black Gown sounded like it had to potential to hit just that spot – plus it has a gorgeous cover. I tore into the book hoping to…
