C2’s review of Lothaire (Immortals After Dark, Book 10) by Kresley Cole Paranormal Romance published by Gallery Books 10 Jan 12 In a long-running series, there are always a couple of characters whose books are especially anticipated.

REVIEW: More than Perfect by Day LeClaire

Wednesday, February 8, 2012 1:00 No Comments

LynneC’s review of More than Perfect by Day Leclaire Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Desire 7 Feb 12 I enjoyed this book, not quite as much as the first in the series, but it’s still a good, solid read. It is still more Desire than Presents/Modern, with the millionaire more human, a touch less alpha, [...]

Sandy M’s review of Scrumptious by Amanda Usen Contemporary Romance published by Sourcebooks Casablanca 1 Jan 12 I’m one of those people who likes upscale food in fancy-schmancy restaurants.

REVIEW: One More Summer by Liz Flaherty

Sunday, January 29, 2012 1:00 No Comments

Laura C’s review of One More Summer by Liz Flaherty Contemporary Romance / Women’s Fiction published by Carina Press 02 Jan 12 Don’t be fooled by the cover. This is not the light-hearted contemporary romance you might expect from the artwork. There is a romance, it’s true, but the focus is far more on the [...]

LynneC’s review of  The Petrov Proposal by Maisey Yates Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Desire 24 Jan 12 Maisey Yates is one of my go-to authors and while she didn’t disappoint with this book, it isn’t as amazing as last year’s Highest Price to Pay. It is still a highly enjoyable read.

LynneC’s review of Nothing Short of Perfect by Day Leclaire Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Desire 1 Nov 11 Day LeClaire is a great example of someone who has been writing for the Desire line for a very long time but manages to keep her characters and situations fresh and interesting. More than interesting. I [...]

Sandy M’s review of Try Not to Breathe by Jennifer R. Hubbard Young Adult published by Viking Juvenile 19 Jan 12 As most of you who read my reviews know, I’m not a stickler for accuracy or total believability and realism in my romance novels. That doesn’t mean a lot to me when given terrific [...]

Saturday, January 14, 2012 1:00 No Comments

Wendy the Super Librarian‘s review of The Queen’s Consort by Leia Rice Erotica short story ebook published by Spice Briefs 01 Jul 11 Pour a glass of wine into me and I’ll wax poetic about how erotica isn’t “just about sex.”  That in “good erotica,” written predominantly for a female readership, the sex is a [...]

Monday, January 9, 2012 1:00 4 Comments

LynneC’s review of A Lady Awakened by Cecilia Grant Historical Romance published by Bantam 27 Dec 11 I nearly DNF’d this book. The heroine is worthy, the hero isn’t and they get together because she wants a baby to save the estate from the Evil Heir. By page 100 I was starting to skip, which [...]
