We will have some of the Harlequin Historical Editors dropping in today. If you have questions for them, ask away. I am not sure about the timezone thing (it always confuses me) so it is possible they take questions later. But to start us out and just in case you haven’t read them before… Writing [...]

Limecello’s review of Sea Witch by Virginia Kantra Paranormal Romance released by Berkley Sensation on 1 Jul 08 (Isn’t that cover eye catching?)

I had a post on 24 Hours as a Sex Vixen in draft forever. I couldn’t find a summary for the life of me. And finally in a fit of ‘omg there is too much crap in draft’ I deleted it. And then heard she was having a case of writers block. Or at least [...]

Lawson’s review of Red-Hot and Royal by Susanna Carr Contemporary romance released by NAL Trade 3 Jun 08 I don’t know what it is, but I have a thing for prince stories. Maybe it’s my own unwise crush on Prince William or love of happily ever after fairy tales, but a prince story can usually [...]

LauraJ’s review of Lovers At Last by Shelley Munro Contemporary Erotic short story eBook released by Ellora’s Cave 4 Jun 08. I’m kind of on a short story kick. It’s great reading while I’m waiting for one of my kids to finish up at one of their activities. I can usually finish up one story [...]

Sandy M’s review of The Bride by Carolyn Davidson Historical Romance published by HQN Books 1 Feb 08 I just could not get into this book. The characters are very stiff and dry. The dialogue is the same. The storyline is fine, but with such dryness it never really picks up and you never get [...]
