Wendy the Super Librarian‘s review of A Cowboy Comes Home (Colorado Cattle Barons, Book 1) by Barbara Dunlop Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Desire 03 Jan 12 Books like this one seriously depress me.  On the surface, it has a lot going for it.  We have a sexy guy on the cover, a cowboy that [...]

LynneC’s review of Tool Belt Defender (Lawmen of Black Rock, Book 5) by Carla Cassidy Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Romantic Suspense 20 Dec 11 Occasionally I venture into romantic suspense territory, and this book is from that Harlequin line.

LynneC’s review of Carrying the Rancher’s Heir by Charlene Sands Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Desire 3 May 11 They caught each other at a vulnerable time for them both, decided to forget the past and the future and spend the night together.

Wendy the Super Librarian‘s review of The Unlikely Wife by Debra Ullrick Inspirational historical romance published by Love Inspired Historical 03 Jan 12 One of the reasons I like historical western romances is that I love heroines with a harder edge to them.  Granted, there were many civilized parts of the world that were unforgiving [...]

LynneC’s review of Say It With Diamonds by Lucy King Contemporary Romance published by Mills and Boon Modern Romance 1 Jan 12 Lucy King has considerable talent as a writer, and her first book for Harlequin was fabulous.

LynneC’s review of A Dangerous Infatuation by Chantelle Shaw Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 3 Jan 12 (M&B Modern – 1 Nov 11) This is an old-style Modern Romance and is very much a book you can sink into for an hour or two’s pleasure.

Dinca’s review of Taming the Texas Playboy by Crystal Green Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Special Edition 15 Feb 11 I am not sure what the title of this book has to do with the story. I find no evidence in the hero’s character to warrant his supposed bad reputation

LynneC’s review of How the Marquess Was Won (Pennyroyal Green, Book 6) by Julie Anne Long Historical Romance published by Avon 27 Dec 11 Julie Anne Long has a lovely, light style that lends itself well to historical fiction. It’s just a shame that it’s not a history I recognize (yes I know, here she [...]

Ash’s review of Shaedes of Gray by Amanda Bonilla Urban fantasy published by Signet Eclipse 06 Dec 11 I think maybe I am getting burnt out on paranormals because I feel like I never have anything new to say. I like Shaedes of Gray, but it doesn’t blow me away. With so many books out [...]
