At one point in Hot As Hell, Noah Paxton wants to know what the hell is going on. I did too. I don’t know when I have read a book that had such a convoluted plot as this one. There were times I was totally lost and I still don’t think I’ve got it all…
I recently started reading Catherine Anderson’s latest contemporary romances, involving the Coulter and Harrigan clans. I think they are great comfort reads, and Star Bright seems like another to add to the list. In order to escape a truly horrific abusive marriage and certain death, Rainie Danning (with the help of a few trusted friends)…
The cover and title of Susan Donovan’s new book The Girl Most Like To… promise a light comedy. Although there are some light moments in the book, it is mostly an angst-filled story featuring parted lovers and a secret child. Kat Cavanaugh grew up in Persuasion, West Virginia, a small college town where her father…
Right off the bat, I’ll confess that I’m usually not a fan of plot-driven road romances since in my experience, the characters tend to get lost in the shuffle. With that said, this one is certainly better than most. Zoey Adler is living in a Chicago apartment complex in order to be near a woman…
Of course I bought Mistress of the Monarchy by Alison Weir because of Anya Seton’s historical novel Katherine. I love the novel, and I thought it would be deeply interesting to take a closer look at its main characters from a historian’s point-of-view. I was not disappointed. The love story of Katherine Swynford and John…
I liked this one. I really liked it. I’d read one book by Debra Webb before and ranked it in the B- range, then steered clear of the next one after a negative review here. When the latest list of books for review came my way, I decided to give the author another shot. It…
Talk Me Down features the shallowest heroine I have met in quite a long time. Not only is she shallow, but she comes across as not very bright either. Pity – the hero was fairly yummy. Molly Jenkins grew up in Tumble Creek, Colorado under the shadow of her perfect brother Quinn. Quinn’s best friend…
I enjoy romances featuring heroines who are authors, so I expected to like Divorced, Desperate, and Dating. Unfortunately, I had enough problems with the book that it ended up as only a mediocre read. Several months earlier mystery writer Sue Finley and bad boy cop Jason Dodd shared a mind-blowing kiss. Sue thought it was…
I have been following Brockmann’s Troubleshooters series from the beginning and, for the most part, have thoroughly enjoyed the ride. Into the Fire brings Vinh Murphy out of the darkness in which he’s been hiding since his wife, Angelina, was shot and killed during an assignment in Hot Target. Izzy Zanella also plays a big…
While I enjoy urban fantasy, I’m always aware that it’s a genre that will often lack a HEA and is sometimes written in first person, something I can find annoying. Faefever has both of those characteristics, and, though I found reading it occasionally frustrating, I was captivated. MacKayla Lane is a young Georgia woman who…
