Ash’s review of Three Days to Dead (Dreg City Series Book 1) by Kelly Meding Urban Fantasy released by Dell 24 NOV 2009 I read Three Days to Dead in about four hours because it was just that good. I’m almost glad I waited to read it, only because now I can read the next [...]

Contemporary romance published by Avon 25 May 10 Rachel Farris had the life she always dreamed of – she was an account director at a Chicago advertising company with an awesome apartment and was living the big city life.  She had left her [...]

Sandy M’s review of Untamed Rogue, Scandalous Mistress by Bronywn Scott Historical Romance published by Harlequin Historical 1 Jul 10 I so love a story that has a hero and heroine working together to overcome conflict instead of having that conflict break them up, keep them apart, and make them snarl and snip at one [...]

Wendy the Super Librarian‘s review of Tipping the Waitress with Diamonds by Nina Harrington Contemporary romance released by Harlequin Romance 11 May 2010 Having only recently discovered the Harlequin Romance line, I’ve happily been trolling through the monthly offerings, snagging any and all books featuring book cover blurbs that tickle my fancy. This latest from [...]

Ash’s review of Cold Sight (Extra Sensory Agents Series Book 1) by Leslie Parrish Paranormal Romance released by Signet 06 JUL 10 Usually I avoid books that deal with reporters trying to solve crimes since they tend to always feel the same to me. I was hoping that with the paranormal aspect, Cold Sight would [...]

Lawson’s review of How I Met My Countess (Bachelor Chronicles, Book 6) by Elizabeth Boyle Historical Romance released by Avon 29 Dec 09 The Bachelor Chronicles continue . . . well, sort of . . . in this book. In Love Letters From a Duke, it’s discovered there are three widowed Lady Standons that married [...]

Sandy M’s review of Sweetest Little Sin by Christine Wells Historical Romance published by Berkley 4 May 10 This is my first book by Christine Wells. While I like a lot of the elements of the book, there’s just something lacking that made it fall short of one of those books you drop everything around [...]

I’ve had the pleasure to read and review both of Caroline Fyffe’s books, Where the Wind Blows and Montana Dawn, and each time when I closed the books after reading the last word, I was left with a feeling of contentment, of rightness, of experiencing something special. For me, Montana Dawn is about family, that [...]

Caroline’s second book is ready to release next week, so if you’re looking for sweet, heartwarming westerns, you should definitely pick up her first book, Where the Wind Blows, and you’ll be set for Montana Dawn next Tuesday. We’re set [...]

Sandy M’s review of Montana Dawn by Caroline Fyffe Historical Western Romance published by Leisure Books 27 Jul 10 I said in my review of Ms. Fyffe’s debut book, Where the Wind Blows, that she’s an author to keep an eye on. With Montana Dawn, she solidifies that opinion for me. Her books are heart-warming, [...]

Liviania’s review of SpellCrash (WebMage, Book 5) by Kelly McCullough Mythology/cyberpunk/fantasy released by Ace 25 May 2010 I somehow managed to not realize there existed a series that crossed mythology with cyberpunk. I managed to do this despite knowing that either my father or I bought or seriously considered buying WebMage, the first book in [...]

Ash’s review of Black Magic by Cherry Adair Paranormal Romance released by Pocket 20 Jul 10 Going into this book, I really wasn’t expecting much. I’ve read a few of Cherry Adair’s previous books and while I enjoyed them, they never really stood out. Thankfully within the first few pages I found out how wrong [...]

Lynne Connolly’s review of Touch of Surrender (Primal Instinct Series, Book 5) by Rhyannon Byrd Paranormal Romance published by HQN Books 27 Apr 10 I’ve read Rhyannon Byrd’s books before and enjoyed them very much, but they were the books she wrote for Ellora’s Cave, and so I couldn’t review them, because they constituted a [...]

Liviania’s review of Unholy Magic (Downside Ghosts, Book 2) by Stacia Kane Urban Fantasy released by Del Rey 6 July 2010 The second book in a trilogy tends to be the worst, since it is stuck setting up the exciting climax of book three.  Luckily for me, Unholy Magic didn’t feel like it was just [...]

The RNA Conference this year was held in the stunning setting of the Greenwich Naval College, designed by Inigo Jones in the 1630’s, overlooking the Thames. It’s our 50th anniversary.
