Limecello’s review of The Moretti Heir by Katherine Garbera
Contemporary romance released by Silhouette Desire 10 Mar 09
I got this book because it was part of the Man of the Month series, and also because it’s by Katherine Garbera. Admittedly, there were other motivating factors, as Marco Moretti’s  description is “Italian millionaire.” I’m a sucker [...]

Limecello’s review of Secret Baby, Public Affair by Yvonne Lindsay
Contemporary romance released by Silhouette Desire 10 Mar 09
I really enjoy Yvonne Lindsay’s Silhouette Desire books, and it’s a good thing too, because her titles are not a draw for me. I might even go so far as to say that I read them in [...]

Gwen’s review of Undead On Arrival  (Crimson Moon, Book 3) by L.A. Banks
Urban fantasy released by St. Martin’s 31 Mar 09
Sybil sends me random urban fantasies and paranormals to read and review.  I’m usually happy with the books – sometimes they suck and sometimes I’m pleased as punch with the book.  This book sits in [...]

Limecello’s Duckies Do Series reviews of The Hardcastle Progeny Series by Jennifer Lewis
Contemporary romances released by Silhouette Desire Feb – Apr 2009
Rawr. My original review got eaten, so please just imagine all sorts of witty brilliance throughout, ok? So – Silhouette Desire is one of my favorite Harlequin Lines. I also pick books based on [...]

Limecello’s review of Scandalized by Lori Foster
Contemporary romance released by Harlequin 1 Oct 97, rerel’d 1 Mar 09
The story begins “She was the perfect woman to have his baby.” Tell me that doesn’t get your attention. I really enjoy Lori Foster’s older stories, and this was no exception. You’ll notice that the book title [...]

Shannon C.’s review of The Accidental Human (Accidental Friends, Book 3) by Dakota Cassidy
Paranormal romance released by Berkley 3 Mar 09
There’s something intrinsically satisfying about reading the final volume to a series. I always close the book with a smile, a bit wistful that I’ll never get to spend time with these characters [...]

Liviania’s review of His Cavalry Lady (Aikenhead Honors, Book 1) by Joanna Maitland
Historical romance released by Harlequin Historical 1 Mar 09
What’s this?  A Harlequin Historical review by someone other than Wendy the Super Librarian?  Could it really be?  I must admit, I don’t pick up much historical fiction. It’s not my favorite genre.  (I should note [...]

Gwen’s review of The Betrayal (The Ælven, Book 1) by Pati Nagle
Romantic fantasy released by Del Rey 24 Mar 09
I don’t get much chance to read fantasy, though it is one of my first literary loves.  I cut my reader’s teeth on J.R.R. Tolkien, Roger Zelazny, and Terry Brooks.  To this day, I hear music [...]

Shannon C.’s review of Desire Unchained (Demonica, Book 2) by Larissa Ione
Paranormal romance released by Forever 3 Mar 09
It says something about the compellingness (is that even a word?) of an author’s series when it doesn’t take me six months between reading books. I didn’t wait long at all between reading Pleasure Unbound and [...]

Lawson’s review of Revealed by Kate Noble
Historical romance released by Berkley Sensation 3 Mar 09
Kate Noble, in her second book, goes for a bit more intrigue and some derring-do with a story about a former spy in the fight against Napoleon and the Queen of Society.  I do have to mention that after reading [...]

Sandy M’s review of Animal Attraction by Charlene Teglia
Contemporary Paranormal Erotic Romance released by St. Martin’s 17 Mar 09
This is one of those books that readers are going to really like or it’s just not for them. There will those who will say there’s not enough story to go along with all that sex.  Sometimes [...]

Gwen’s review of Nobody But You (A Grayson Friends Novel) by Francis Ray
Contemporary romance released by St. Martin’s 3 Mar 09
I discovered something when I read this novel: there’s a whole sub-genre of romance novels for NASCAR fans.  I know!  Go figure!  Not that there’s anything wrong with that (a la Seinfeld), but I was [...]

Shannon C.’s review of Practice Makes Perfect by Julie James
Contemporary romance released by Berkley 3 Mar 09
Originally, I hadn’t been particularly interested in reading this book. The phrase “feminist heroine” usually fills me with an unnameable dread. But after reading Jessica’s take on the gender politics and feminism in the book I [...]

Lauren: Hey everyone, thanks so much for having me here today!

Limecello’s review of Taking Care of Business by Megan Hart and Lauren Dane
Erotic romance released by Black Lace on 31 Mar 09
I really enjoy books by both Megan Hart and Lauren Dane, so I was looking forward to reading Taking Care of Business. I also love the cover – it’s eye catching, sexy but [...]
