Sunday, August 15, 2010 1:00 2 CommentsAsh’s review of Finding the Lost (The Sentinel Wars, Book 2) by Shannon K. Butcher Paranormal Romance released by Onyx 03 Nov 09 I wanted to like this book, but it never really sucked me in.

Saturday, February 27, 2010 1:00 2 CommentsWendy the Super Librarian‘s review of Seducing a Stranger by Christine Merrill Historical romance short story ebook released by Harlequin Historical Undone 1 Nov 09 Sometimes all it takes is a shorter format to make me more tolerant of certain storylines. If Seducing a Stranger had been a full-length Harlequin Historical, it probably would have [...]
REVIEW: Desert Prince, Blackmailed Bride by Kim Lawrence
Sunday, February 21, 2010 1:00 No CommentsLynne Connolly‘s review of Desert Prince, Blackmailed Bride by Kim Lawrence Contemporary romance released by Harlequin Presents 1 Nov 09 Another daft title, but a bit more accurate than some I’ve read recently, where the title seems to have been drawn out of a hat.

Tuesday, December 15, 2009 1:00 No CommentsGwen’s review of Vampire Sunrise (Delilah Street, Book 3) by Carole Nelson Douglas Urban fantasy released by Pocket 24 Nov 09 I’m a huge fan of urban fantasy. I love it when authors cut loose and create a whole new reality that’s only loosely based on the “real” reality. It’s an opportunity to really explore [...]
REVIEW: Blaze of Memory by Nalini Singh
Friday, December 11, 2009 13:00 No CommentsLynne Connolly’s review of Blaze of Memory by Nalini Singh Futuristic paranormal romance released by Berkley 3 Nov 09 The cover? Weird.
