Limecello's review of Spin the Bottle by Elizabeth Scott
Erotic romance anthology released by NAL on 2 Oct 07
I read Elizabeth Scott's (a.k.a. Janice Maynard's) first book Naughty Housewives, and knew I wanted to read this book as well. This sexy, single-author anthology really pushes the envelop, and runs the gamut of intriguing, interesting experiences. If you like your books with a lot of heat, this is the book for you, because there's a bit of something for everyone. Read more

May 28, 2008
I figured that if I wait until I have time to do full reviews of these six books, airborne porcine would be commonplace. So I decided to just do it - write a bunch of quick hits. These are all over the place as far as genre and release dates, so bear with me. Below are short reviews for:
~ A Lick of Frost (Meredith Gentry, Book 6) by Laurell K. Hamilton - fantasy fiction
~ The Kiss by Sophia Nash - regency historical romance
~ The Last Warrior by Karen Kay - American west historical romance
~ Creation in Death by J.D. Robb - Furturistic thriller
~ How to Propose to a Prince (The Royle Sisters, Book 3) by Kathryn Caskie - regency historical romance
~ Midnight Rising (The Midnight Breed, Book 4) by Lara Adrian - contemporary paranormal romance

Limecello's review of Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night (Immortals After Dark, Book 3) by Kresley Cole
Paranormal romance released by Pocket Star Oct 07
Book three of the Immortals After Dark series was very enjoyable. Wicked Deeds actually happens while much of No Rest is taking place, and you have to feel bad for Bowen. I think a lot of what happens to him is downplayed - after all, he's a tough Lykae - one who would have been king-so what does he need with half his face? Honestly. It's fine it got blown off. Gah.

Ok, this should have gone up before the excerpt from Untamed, but uh. . .I don't want to point fingers or blame anyone, so it's just going up now! It really is a good book.

Laura J's review of Over Hexed by Vicki Lewis Thompson
Contemporary Paranormal Romance released by Onyx Publishing 2 Oct 07
As you all know, I love the funnay stuff. So a couple of years ago when a friend showed me one of Ms Thompson's books, I said sure I'll give her a try. I am so glad I did. I have read all of her Nerd books and have been trying to locate as many of her backlists books as I can find. It's a pretty funny sight to see a grown woman at a flea market getting a little excited when she locates one.

Lawson's review of Mine Till Midnight by Lisa Kleypas
Historical romance released by St. Martin's 2 Oct 07
As much as I love Lisa Kleypas and her books, it's amazing that it took me six months to read this one. I've got to say though that the minute I was finished with Mine Till Midnight, I really wanted to read Seduce Me at Sunrise. Someday soon. . .Oh yeah, I've gotten off track. Mine Till Midnight is the first in the series about the Hathaway family. There are also some scenes with characters from the Wallflower books, and it's always nice to spend more time with Marcus, Lord Westcliff and Sebastian, Lord St. Vincent. Read more

Devon's review of Night Mischief (a Dark Enchantments novel) by Nina Bruhns
Paranormal Romance released by Silhouette Nocturne on 1 Oct 2007
Night Mischief is part of the Dark Enchantments miniseries, released by Silhouette Nocturne last year. I read the first one, Familiar Stranger by Michele Hauf, and quite enjoyed it. The second book was a chore to finish, and I guess that's why I let this third installment languish in the TBR milk crate. I'm glad I pulled it out, because Night Mischief was very entertaining, with a great hero and heroine, plenty of tension and a satisfying romance.

Finn’s review of Everything Forbidden by Jess Michaels
Historical erotic romance released by Avon Red 30 Oct 07
Talk about HOT! I really enjoyed this book. Naughty little Miranda Albright has watched her neighbor, Ethan Earl of Rothschild, as he fornicated with his summer lover for years. Well now her family is in dire straights and in need of assistance. Miranda does the sacrificial lamb thing and tells him she will be his summer lover in exchange for coming-out Seasons for her sisters. Yeah, what a hardship! (Giggle)
