LynneC’s review of Love Without Lies by Lee Wilkinson Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents 16 Aug 11 and Innocent in the Ivory Tower by Lucy Ellis Contemporary Romance published by Mills and Boon Modern Romance 1 Oct 11 I read these books one after the other, and they were both hmm, I don’t know [...]

LynneC’s review of  The Marriage Betrayal by Lynne Graham Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 28 Jun 10 Harlequin has begun to put selected titles from their category lines on netGalley for review. I’m guessing they want these books reviewed and promoted all over the place. So it beats me why they decided to [...]

LynneC’s review of The Man She Loves To Hate by Kelly Hunter Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra/Mills and Boon Riva 2 August 11 I’d heard the buzz about this on Twitter, so since it’s available on Netgalley, I downloaded it. Was I ever glad I did! The Man She Loves To Hate has [...]

LynneC’s review of Reckless Night in Rio by Jennie Lucas Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 28 Jul 11 There are Belgian chocolate truffles. There is fine champagne, single malt whisky, silk velvet Dior gowns, and Casablanca. There are also big bars of supermarket chocolate, alcoholic ginger beer, outrageous dresses so badly put together [...]

LynneC’s review of  Walk on the Wild Side by Natalie Anderson Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents 5 Apr 11 This book is a Harlequin Presents Extra in the US and a Riva in the UK. I read the Harlequin version. The Extra or Riva line still carries the millionaire hero and the weaker heroine [...]

LynneC’s review of Girls’ Guide to Flirting With Danger by Kimberly Lang Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 1 Mar 11 This was a complete surprise and a really good read. If this is the level of the new Mills and Boon Riva line, I want more. This book is a Riva book in [...]

LynneC’s review of Snowbound Seduction by Helen Brooks Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 30 Nov 10 I was a bit puzzled when I checked the cover and found that this book really was a Modern/Presents Extra. Because it doesn’t read like a Presents at all. Apart from the British setting, it would fit [...]

LynneC’s review of The Twelve Nights of Christmas by Sarah Morgan Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents 9 Nov 10 I state upfront that earlier this year I met Sarah at an RNA ‘do, and we had a lovely chat. But I loved her books before and I love them now, and so I’m doing [...]

LynneC’s review of Shameful Secret, Shotgun Wedding by Sharon Kendrick Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 9 Nov 10 Kendrick specializes in ultra-alphas, but sometimes comes up with a story with more depth and feeling. Count me out as a lover of the Sheikh and Stable Girl book, but this one I enjoyed much [...]

Lynne Connolly’s review of Billionaire Doctor, Ordinary Nurse by Carol Marinelli Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents 12 Aug 08 This one is a kind of cross between Presents and Medical, with the heat level fairly low, but higher than in most Medical romances. And I enjoyed it a lot.

Lynne Connolly’s review of The British Billionaire’s Innocent Bride by Susanne James Contemporary Romance published by Harlequin Presents Extra 8 Dec 09 I read the British version of this book, the Harlequin Modern version, but you can also get it as a Presents Extra. I know how hard it is to read a poor review [...]
