I’ve read a lot of books by Susan Mallery, and Sweet Spot, the second in her Keyes sisters trilogy, is definitely one of my favorites. I didn’t read the first book, but this worked for me as a stand-alone. Nicole is the responsible sister. She’s worked in the family bakery from a young age and…
When I read a very short summary of Elizabeth Bevarly’s last installment in her OPUS series, Overnight Male, (following You’ve Got Male and Express Male) I grew intrigued. A masterspy on her last assignment while showing her sexy new partner the ropes – how cool does that sound? Unfortunately, the novel is a prime example…
Too Dangerous to Desire features two leads with Major Issues and a storyline with fairly strong romantic suspense elements that moves along at a brisk clip. If occasionally those Issues get a little old or the romantic suspense a bit over the top, it still remains a good read. Evelyn Waye and Adam Westmore meet…
I have been fan of Barbara Metzger ever since I read Bething’s Folly back in 1980s. She is one of the few authors I buy on name alone because she always succeeds in amusing me. The Scandalous Life of a True Lady did not disappoint in that regard, though it was not as laugh out…
Upon first reading a summary of this book, I admit to having low expectations; mistaken identity plots usually annoy me, and the plot seemed confusing and overly complicated. I was very wrong. Secrets of a Proper Lady is a funny, entertaining story. Daniel Sinclair and Lady Cordelia Bannister’s respective fathers have made a business deal….
I’ve been on somewhat of a Harlequin Presents glom recently, but Kate Walker’s Spanish Billionaire, Innocent Wife effectively put an end to it. Though I’ve liked Walker before – Sicilian Husband is my favorite by the author – this one went so far over the top as to be almost entirely ridiculous. When Raul Marcín…
Reviews for average books are the hardest to write and, unfortunately, His Captive Lady is a prime example. Although it offers a unique twist on an old theme, the book failed to capture my interest and left me with mixed feelings. Though half Saxon, Wulf Fitzpatrick is a Norman invader determined to achieve knighthood. As…
This collection of stories is exactly what the name Rescue Me implies: A series of rescues of damsels in distress by their knights in shining armor – except the knights are actually Special Forces or police and the damsels are pretty tough too.
Though Mystic Rider features a fantastic setting and an intriguing premise, the thin characterization and uninspired meandering of the story quickly show the reader that this will be merely an average read. The story glimmers with promise at its best points, but the the flaws ultimately outweigh the good points. After finishing, I certainly did…
Just One of the Guys has a unique, appealing heroine. For the most part, this was a fun read. If it weren’t for a few incidents late in the book, I would have assigned it a much higher grade. Chastity O’Neil has been in love with Trevor Meade since she was a little girl and…
