When it comes to Susan Elizabeth Phillips, I absolutely love It Had to be You and Lady Be Good but I have had less luck with Nobody’s Baby But Mine and Dream a Little Dream. Still, like many of her fans, I have been looking forward to catching up with Molly Somerville and Kevin Tucker…
Don’t let the “Contemporary Women’s Fiction” label fool you; In the Midnight Rain is about as romantic as it gets. This is my first Ruth Wind, and oh my, how this lady can tell a tale. For those of you, like myself, who have memories of what it was like to send boys we cared…
It may be cliched, but enthralling is the best word I can use to describe the latest book by Donna Kauffman. I finished this one in less than 24 hours, stopping only to sleep last night. If you’re a fan of anything with even a hint of wizardry in it, this is the book for…
Paris Sommers is a woman with a secret. To the rest of the world, she is the manager of best-selling author Montgomery Alexander, a man renowned for his thrilling cloak-and-dagger adventure novels. However, in reality, Alexander is nothing but another invention of Sommers’ fertile imagination, a creation she has fallen for à la Pygmalion. Then…
Again was the first book I read by Kathleen Gilles Seidel. It was the winner of the RITA award for best Contemporary Single Title for 1995. I enjoyed it so much that I bought her entire backlist. Again combines a wonderfully humorous concept with a poignant love story. I laughed quite a bit at the…
I first opened my copy of Isn’t It Romantic? while riding the subway in Washington, DC . It was a unique experience. One minute I was a quiet passenger, the next I was whooping with laugher. I’m sure there are people in our nation’s capital still wondering about that hysterical woman on the Red Line…
Like Carla Kelly, Karen Harbaugh is pushing the bounds of the Regency sub-genre. But she’s doing it in a completely different way. While Kelly’s heroes and heroines are often common people, Harbaugh’s are about as uncommon as you can get. In Cupid’s Kiss, the final installment in Harbaugh’s Cupid trilogy, the hero is Eros –…
Cupid’s Kiss is Karen Harbaugh’s last book in the Cupid Trilogy. After having read it, I plan on grabbing the first two, Cupid’s Mistake and Cupid’s Darts, as soon as possible. Psyche Hathaway has turned down the latest in a long line of suitors, much to her mother’s amazement. She has not been able to…
This is the first book in Rachel Lee’s popular Conard County series. I thought that Ms Lee got the series off to a wonderful start with this book. I love wounded warrior heroes and the hero of Exile’s End, Ransom Laird, is the wounded warrior at his most sympathetic. The whole Conard County series is…
There’s one thing you have to realize about me … I love Jude Deveraux’s books. Her books helped introduce me to the romance genre. Knight in Shining Armor remains one of my all time favorite books. That’s why this is a difficult review for me to write. I didn’t hate Remembrance, but I can’t say…
