Review: Dirty by Megan Hart

Limecello's review of Dirty by Megan Hart
Erotic romance released by Harlequin Spice on 1 Jan 07

I discovered Megan Hart around the time Tempted came out. I'm still not quite sure what happened, but I got caught up in the craze, and I'm glad I did. I've read all of Ms. Hart's Spice books, and I think Dirty may be my favorite. I read it because Ms. Hart has a new Spice Brief out, Reason Enough, which acts as an epilogue to Dirty.

Review: A Man in a Million by Jessica Bird

Sandy M's review of A Man in a Million by Jessica Bird
Contemporary Romance published by Silhouette Special Edition 1 Jan 07

I really am addicted to Bird's heroes. Whether they've come from the wrong side of the tracks and have now made good, lived through a horrible childhood, they've been to prison like Spike in this story, or anything else she throws at them, they're all still gentlemen, they love what family they've got, they treat women right, and, of course, they're as sexy as all get-out. They have a certain mind-set when you first meet them, but even though they think they'll never change, they're open to that change once they feel it coming on and then they embrace it wholeheartedly. Men after my own heart.

Review: Salvation, Texas by Anna Jeffrey

Sandy M's review of Salvation, Texas by Anna Jeffrey
Contemporary romantic suspense released 2 Jan 07 by Signet Eclipse

Once I got into the mind frame that this book is more romantic suspense than the cowboy romance I was expecting, I started to enjoy it, and it ended up being a very good read. It's just that from the nice cover and the summary on the back, I was expecting more of an out-and-out romance, but the romance definitely takes a back seat to the mysterious death of the sister of the heroine, which turns out to be a good plot and a test for the hero, who is once again coming up against the man who basically owns the town and who also happens to be the father of the heroine.
