| Title and Author | Reviewer | |
 | The Surgeon’s Lady by Carla Kelly | Lynn, Heather, Lee, Rike, Lea, Rachel, Jean, Ellen, Blythe, Anne |
 | This Duchess of Mine by Eloisa James | Jean, Andi, Rike, Heather |
 | Finger Lickin’ Fifteen by Janet Evanovich | Ellen, Katie, Jane |

 | Victory of Eagles by Naomi Novik | Rike |
 | Ruthless Husband, Convenient Wife by Madeleine Ker | Anne |

 | Red Hot Lies by Laura Caldwell | Lynn |
 | Lord Braybrook’s Penniless Bride by Elizabeth Rolls | Rike |
 | East of the Sun by Julia Gregson | Lynn |
 | Girl from Mars by Julie Cohen | Rike |
I think that the new Ker is just a repackaging and retitling of her earlier work, The Alpha Male, so no new book after all!
Caro says:
A new Madeleine Ker! Oh frabjous day
I was amazed! :) I almost decided not to buy it after all because Romantic Times gives it only one star, and their series reviews are generally good (if too short). But what the heck… They gave the new Carla Kelly only two stars! So what the heck do they know? So I ordered the Kelly, the Ker, and the new Penny Jordan.
The review of the Ker says that the readers are “”left in the dark”” about what originally split the h/h apart. But a lot of older HP books used that format. I wonder if that annoyed the reviewer and made her dislike it from the start? Or heck, maybe we’ll find out she was right. :( Oh, well, only one way to find out….
The only one of these I am eager for is Carla Kelly’s and I ordered my copy from eHarlequin this week :)
A new Madeleine Ker! Oh frabjous day!
I also have on my wish list Scarlet by Jordan Summers, Endless Blue by Wen Spencer, and Bloody Good by Georgia Evans
@library addict – Yes, those would be considered July releases. I’m looking for the JQ release, too!
Some great books coming out in June. I see at least 2 you have listed here on my BTB list (This Duchess of Mine by Eloisa James & A Hint of Wicked by Jennifer Haymore) and a few more I hadn’t even thought of.
I am also looking to buy:
Four Dukes and a Devil (anthology);
Led Astray by a Rake by Sara Bennett;
Don’t Bargain with the Devil by Sabrina Jeffries;
McAlister’s Fortune by Alissa Johnson;
Wickedly Ever After by Michelle Marcos; and last, but not least
To Ruin the Duke by Debra Mullins
July & August are also packed with good releases too! Ahhh…SMBSLT!
The only books on my “To Buy” calendar for June are Christine Feehan’s Hidden Current and Julia Quinn’s What Happens in London. But as they go on sale June 30th I guess they are considered July releases.
