Hill Paranormal Romance released by Berkely Trade 1 December  2009 If you’ve read my reviews of the previous two installments in this series (go on, check them out here and here), you’ll know I’m a great big fan of this author. She’s a consistent author of [...]

These [...]

Devon’s review of A Duke of Her Own (Desperate Duchesses, Book 6) by Eloisa James Historical Romance released by Avon 28 Jul 09 Bear with me, I’m a bit rusty at this reviewing thing. After a long hiatus, I have recently returned to reading. Several weeks ago, I picked up Duchess by Night, the third [...]

Devon’s review of A Witch’s Beauty (Mermaid Series, Book 2) by Joey W. Hill Paranormal Romance released by Berkley Trade 6 Jan 09 Joey W. Hill is a fabulous writer. I guess I’ve moved into full fledged fangirl territory. Her characters are flawed, drawn to the darkness. Their desires and needs can be dark as [...]

Devon’s review of Ravenous (The Dark Forgotten, Book One) by Sharon Ashwood Paranormal romance released by Signet 3 Feb 09 What if there really were such things as witches, vampires and werewolves? And what if they decided to make themselves known, live side by side with “normal” humans? Can you imagine all the issues that [...]

Devon’s review of A Voice in the Dark by Jenna Ryan Contemporary romantic Suspense released by Harlequin Intrigue 1 Jan 09 The “Phantom of the Opera” scenario is highly intriguing. A relationship based upon communication alone, no visual contact, seems deep. Getting to know the ‘real’ person, with no messy physical stuff to mess it [...]

Devon’s review of Come Toy With Me by Cara Summers Contemporary Romance released by Harlequin Blaze 1 Dec 08 Hey, wasn’t Christmas, like, a month ago? Yeah, but I’m still catching up with stuff. Like reviewing Christmas themed romances. I don’t think readers will find the Christmas in NYC backdrop to be too intrusive. No [...]

Devon’s review of Zen and the Art of Vampires (Dark Ones, Book 6) by Katie MacAlister Contemporary paranormal Romance released by Signet 2 Dec 08 Katie MacAlister’s Dark Ones series started out as quite enjoyable, but soon began to lose steam. I took a pass on the last couple of books, but when this one [...]

Devon’s review of Seduced at Midnight (Mayhem in Mayfair, Book 3) by Jacquie D’Alessandro Historical Romance released by Berkley Sensation 6 Jan 09 I love romance across class lines. It’s one of the most compelling storylines in historical romance. So I was definitely into Seduced at Midnight, which features an earl’s daughter and a Bow [...]

Devon’s review of Christmas Delivery by Patricia Rosemoor Romantic Suspense released by Harlequin Intrigue 1 Dec 08 I’m all about the Christmas stories this year. Gotta get ‘em read and reviewed by next week. (Darn DRM, it would make life so much easier if I could get the books onto my iTouch!) Christmas Delivery was [...]

Devon’s review of Retreat by Mari Carr Erotic romantic suspense eBook released by Ellora’s Cave 26 Nov 08 I knew there was a possibility this one would be ridiculous (check out the summary to see why). A BDSM cult? What would that be all about? But yet I was strangely intrigued. What kind of an [...]

Devon’s review of Dead After Dark by Sherrilyn Kenyon, J.R. Ward, Susan Squires and Dianna Love Paranormal Romance Anthology released by St. Martin’s 2 Dec 08 This anthology was truly a mixed bag. One story I loathed, one I loved, one I liked, and one…meh. At least I had a clear reaction to each, that [...]

Devon’s review of What a Scoundrel Wants by Carrie Lofty Historical romance released by Zebra 2 Dec 08 This is Carrie Lofty’s Zebra debut, and it is an interesting and unusual one. What a Scoundrel Wants builds upon the Robin Hood legend, focusing on Robin’s wayward nephew Will Scarlet. Will has always butted heads with [...]

Devon’s Review of Snowy Night With a Stranger by Jane Feather, Sabrina Jeffries and Julia London Historical romance anthology released by Pocket Star 28 Oct 08 I may just be a convert to Christmas-themed anthologies. Many love them, but I have always avoided them like the plague, assuming them to be filled with miracles, “God [...]
