Adele Ashworth returns to Winter Garden, a town she made famous in her classic romance. However, while I passed a few hours pleasantly enough reading A Notorious Proposition, in the end I was left almost completely unmoved by the book. Lady Ivy Wentworth and Garrett Burke both believe the other to be a betrayer. A…
I was apprehensive about this book at first, since the blurb indicates that the hero and heroine have a one night stand after meeting at a wedding, then manage to build a relationship out of barely knowing each other. I was pleased to find that One Night Stand was more than just that, featuring well…
Blame It on Paris is a light-hearted contemporary that begins in, believe it or not, Paris. A couple falls in love, but will they be able to withstand the obstacles and pressures of a normal life once they leave that enchanted city? This was actually the first work by Greene that I’ve read, but I’ll…
I generally don’t mind writing C reviews, which is a good thing, as I’ve written more than 180 of them. But after several Cs in a row, coming up with ways to say “this book was average” can take its toll. That’s why Three Nights of Sin was an unexpected treat. Everything about it looks…
I haven’t read any of the previous books in Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark series and let me tell you – well, let me double, triple tell you – that Dark Needs at Night’s Edge isn’t the place to start. To be honest, I think this whole series thing is just completely out of hand…
Creepy suspense thrillers are a weakness of mine, so the vaguely threatening title of If You Ever Tell pulled me right in. The promise of a tale of dark secrets and stalkings had me anxious to brew some hot chocolate and curl up with a deliciously scary tale. However, as I started the book, I…
First You Run is the latest in Roxanne St. Claire’s Bullet Catcher series, and the first that I’ve read. Though the book is an overall enjoyable tale of romantic suspense, it doesn’t rank as one of my favorites by the author. The prologue really hooked me. Thirty years ago, Eileen Stafford had a child with…
I’ve been reading Lisa Scottoline’s legal thrillers off and on from the very beginning. Some work better for me than others, and Lady Killer is one of the best I’ve read in a while. For the first time in several years, Scottoline revisits the attorneys of Rosato & Associates with a tale that forces lawyer…
Gina Wilkins has been an auto-buy comfort read for me for years. Her books tend to focus on people with real lives and complicated families. Finding Family, a sequel to The Bridesmaid’s Gifts, has many of these characteristics and did not disappoint. After living in a small apartment for years, Dr. Mark Thomas moved into…
There’s a reason I’m attracted to Harlequin Blaze titles, and it’s not the sex; it’s the settings. They are more likely to be unusual, urban, and contemporary (in the truest sense of the word). French Kissing is set in Paris during fashion week – give me that over a ranch any day. Kimi Renton looks…
