Oh how I love a good second chance romance!  The Good Luck Charm was fun, emotional, and sexy (aka, everything I look for in a romance) and it charmed me.  I think what made this particular second chance story stand out was the way that Lilah and Ethan had to really work through their own […]

Wild Wicked Scot was pretty good, but I wasn’t totally in love with the characters.  I did like the second chance romance aspect of the story, but these days there needs to be ore than just the typical “brutish” highlander.  The fact that they were from such different backgrounds added some good tension, but overall […]

I love this series!  Not only does it have heroines who do not fit your typical historical romance mold, but the stories are full of tension and emotional.  Each woman in thee books is facing some sort of challenge that doesn’t involve having to get married, which is a nice change of pace.  Plus, the […]

If you remember the 90s, there was a Sandra Bullock film called While you Were Sleeping and Sophie Jordan’s latest is a Regency era nod to that romcom classic.  Poppy works in a flower shop and takes care of her teen sister, who is basically trapped in their flat all day.  Through her work in […]

  I have read most, if not all, in this series so I was looking forward to finally reading about the Highlander who is all but demonized in the other books.  His ancestral connection to the English and his English title set him apart from the other lairds, but of course there is more to […]

Let the Holiday Romance Season begin!  What better way to start than with one of my very favorite contemporary romance authors, Jill Shalvis!  There was a lot lot like about The Trouble with Mistletoe, and I think for me it started with Willa.  I loved that she owned a pet grooming business and I also […]

In Too Hot To Handle we were introduced to the Clarkson family and their weird, dysfunctional road trip to fulfill their mother’s last wish.  In Too Wild To Tame, the story continues as we get to know Aaron, the slick political consultant who has fallen from favor and is trying to get his career on […]

This was absolutely fantastic!  Instead of a scandal involving nudes released on social media or someone’s cloud being hacked, Sarah MacLean basically took the 19th century equivalent  – a nude portrait that was only supposed to be for private viewing – and made it the source of the scandal that brings her guardian out of […]

Remembering Everly is the sequel to the NA romance, Forgetting August.  If you read the first book, you know that it ended on quite the cliffhanger, so I was looking forward to the continuation of the story.  Unfortunately, it really did do much for me.  The uneven pace and the unfocused story really took away […]

Duke of Sin is number ten in the Maiden Lane series with no signs of slowing down. Before I go on, a few things I like about this series is that each book seems very different, which isn’t always the case with long romance series, and it is set in the 18th century rather than […]
