Holly's review of Taming the Highlander by Terri Brisbin
Historical romance published by Harlequin Historical 1 Jul 06
Although I enjoy historical romance novels, lately I've been disappointed in the majority of the ones I've read. I realized the other day the reason for my disappointment stems from the fact that I have a hard time suspending disbelief over some of the situations the characters find themselves in. Basically, I don't think the novels I've read recently have been in keeping with how I think historical times really were. While that doesn't always bother me, I think I've just been craving something a little more realistic. Terri Brisbin did an excellent job, in my opinion, of staying true to the times. It was very refreshing and just what I was looking for. Read more

Shannon C.'s review of The Red Heart of Jade (Dirk and Steele, Book 3) by Marjorie M. Liu
Paranormal romance published by Love Spell 1 Jul 06
Whatever there is to say about Marjorie Liu's books, "boring" is not an adjective that describes any of them. In the third installment in Ms. Liu's Dirk & Steele series, the action starts from the first and doesn't let up until the end.

Lawson's review of Vanquished by Hope Tarr
Historical romance released by Medallion Press 1 Jul 06
If you're looking for a different sort of story, setting and characters, this book is for you. Set in late Victorian London, the story follows a leader of the suffragist movement, Caledonia Rivers. She's a spinster whose whole life is the movement for women's rights in England. She meets Hadrian St. Claire, a photographer, who has been asked to take her picture for a series of photographs to go along with the passage of a woman's suffrage bill in Parliament. What, oh what, could happen? Probably anything and everything. Read more
