Gwen’s review of The Price of Desire by Jo Goodman
Historical romance released by Zebra 1 Sep 08
Some books are just so damn good, you truly want them to never end.  I put this book down and sighed.  It delivers on so many fronts, it’s difficult to summarize them all. 

Lawson’s review of Secrets of the Knight (Bladesmen, Book 3) by Julia Latham
Historical romance released by Avon 26 Aug 08
As I think a few readers are bemoaning (maybe), there aren’t a lot of different settings in historicals. So when Julia Latham’s books come out, I usually snap them up because medieval aren’t found around [...]

Limecello’s review of Caught In the Act (Loving on the Edge Trilogy, Book 1) by Saskia Walker
Erotic Romance released by Harlequin Spice 1 Sep 08
Spice Briefs tend to be hit or miss (at least for me) – but I’m happy to say, Caught in the Act was a good purchase, and I enjoyed it [...]

Gwen’s review of Fallen (Fallen Angel Trilogy, Book 1) by Claire Delacroix
Urban fantasy romantic suspense released by Tor 30 Sep 08
The book takes place in a post-(multiple)apocalyptic United States, now called the Republic, in the year 2099.  It’s a dirty-nuke-ravaged, but functioning society that is literally powered by slave labor.  This labor is provided by [...]

Gwen’s review of Faefever (Fever, Book 3) by Karen Marie Moning
Urban Fantasy hardcover released by Delacorte Press 16 Sep 08
When I first started reading it, I thought this series was kind of YA.  I mean, the heroine rarely cussed (”petunia” is “ass” in her personal vocabulary), there was no sexxoring, and it was really rather [...]

Sandy M’s review of Prey by Melina Morel
Contemporary Paranormal Romance released by Signet 2 Sep 08
Well, this doesn’t happen to me very often.  A book that starts out fine, sounds and feels like it’s going to be good.  A book that starts to fall apart in Chapter 2.  A book that I just can’t pick [...]

Shannon C.’s review of Becoming Miss Becky by Shannon Stacey
Western romance eBook released by Samhain 23 Sep 08
I know I overthink things. I did even before I started reviewing, and it’s just gotten worse. Time was I could read a book like this one, smile in places, and shrug it off when I [...]

Sandy M’s review of Tapestry of the Past by Alvania Scarborough
Contemporary paranormal erotic romance eBook released by Ellora’s Cave 24 Sep 08
I’ve had a rash of erotica books lately that just haven’t worked for me for one reason or another, mostly because there’s not really a storyline, let alone a good one, or the characters [...]

Shannon C.’s review of Accustomed to His Fangs by December Quinn
Contemporary paranormal erotic romance eBook released by Ellora’s Cave 1 Sep 08
The one sub-genre of romance that I tend not to read often is comedy. I just don’t find most wacky hijinks particularly amusing, and I find “Oh, look what an idiot the heroine is” [...]

Liviania’s review of Mr. Cavendish, I Presume (Two Dukes of Wyndham, Book 2) by Julia Quinn
Historical romance released by Avon 30 Sep 08
The Lost Duke of Wyndham told of a highwayman and a servant falling in love. Julia Quinn appropriately approaches its companion Mr. Cavendish, I Presume in a different manner. It’s a bit [...]

Gwen’s review of The Dangerous Duke by Christine Wells
Historical romance released by Berkley Sensation 2 Sep 08
Every now and again, I seem to go on a Historical Bender.  I read all sorts of historicals – regency, medieval, and all kinds in between.  I love me a raw paranormal or some edgy urban fantasy, but it’s [...]

Shannon C.’s review of Liquid Crystal (Department 57 Series) by Lynne Connolly
Paranormal erotic romance ebook released by Loose ID 1 Sep 08
Some reviewers — some even on this site — are capable of reading every book and loving all of them unreservedly. They are capable of looking past personal no-nos in order to judge [...]

Shannon C.’s review of The Storm (Sons of Destiny, Book 6) by Jean Johnson
Fantasy romance released by Berkley 1 Sep 08
I’ll be sad to see the last of the Sons of Destiny. I feel like I’ve spent the last year getting to know all of them, and there are only two more books [...]

Devon’s review of A Historical Christmas Present by Lisa Kleypas, Lynsay Sands, and Leigh Greenwood
Historical Romance Anthology released by Love Spell 1 Sep 08
First off, everyone should know that these three novellas have all been published previously. I don’t want anyone to get their hopes up, thinking that a favorite author has a new [...]

Sandy M’s review of Subtle Voyage (Subtle Lovers, Book 5) by Beth Kery
Paranormal Erotic Romance novella eBook released by Ellora’s Cave 10 Sep 08
I’m always bummed when I read a Beth Kery book that just doesn’t work for me as well as some of her previous books have. This is only the second one, but [...]
