I can heartily recommend this book for anyone who wants to spend a cozy few hours with a fun, interesting, satisfying read. Carly Phillips knows how to write romance. Sealed With A Kiss is proof. Molly Gifford is a lawyer who is trying to cope with absent, selfish parents. One day she gets a letter…
Edith Layton is no newcomer in the field of paranormal historicals, having written stories in the sub-genre before – the novellas Hounds of Heaven and The Last Gift (in A Regency Christmas VIII and A Regency Christmas Present, respectively). So when I picked up Bride Enchanted, I hoped that in the hands of an experienced…
Movie star romances are a guilty pleasure of mine. As much as I love realistic stories, when a celebrity is thrown in the mix, I’ll pick up the book. However, Holquist goes one better by managing to combine the fantasy with identifiable, real characters in Sexiest Man Alive. Jasmine Burns is not just quiet or…
To begin, if you haven’t read any of J.R. Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood series and you plan to start, please don’t read any further because this review does contain series spoilers. Still here? Let’s get to the big question: Does J.R. Ward deliver on the Vishous book? From my perspective, she sort of does. Pretty…
For a debut novel, Heather Waters’ The Devil’s Possession isn’t bad at all. The writing is well done and the plot nicely developed. However, I found the characters weak – weak enough to make me put the book down at certain points in frustration. Faith Maitland stands to become the chieftain of the clan upon…
Such is Diana Gabaldon’s talent for characterization, that even when her plots meander, she still holds my interest. When I first started readingLord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade, I was completely caught up in the story and quickly rushed through almost half the book. Unfortunately, it was a few days before I managed…
Though I’m fairly new to Karen Rose, I’m glad that I stumbled across her. Her novels are complex and emotion-packed, and feature well-rounded characters. Die for Me oozes tension-filled suspense and horror. I simply couldn’t put it down and will definitely be checking out the author’s backlist in the near future. Detective Vito Ciccotelli arrives…
There are times when I come across a romance novel that’s just plain boring. Adopted Son, unfortunately, is just that. Jeremiah Tucker – Tuck to his friends – finds a little baby named Brady at a crime scene. Brady is clearly a neglected child, and shows the physical and mental scars. The baby’s plight brings…
Marriage at the Circle M sounded like a sweet romance about two nice people. In actuality, it’s a sweet romance about two annoying people. As I spent most of the book wanting to bang their heads together, this wasn’t quite the quick, fun read I had hoped for. Grace Lundquist is the sweetheart of her…
When a book bills itself as a tense, action-packed thriller, I do not expect my only emotional reaction to be helpless laughter. Yet that perfectly describes my reaction to Don’t Say a Word. What begins as merely boring and at times derivative falls finally into the realm of the utterly improbable and emotionally manipulative. Or,…
