Dear Ms. Jewel, I loved your 2009 book, Scandal, and very much enjoyed Indiscreet, which came out later the same year. So when I learned that you were publishing a new historical called Not Wicked Enough I got excited, and asked Jane if she could send me the ARC. Having now read it, I have(…)

Dear Ms. Banks, Your erotic romances don’t really work for me. I’m not a fan of the one wife for four brothers scenario, and I tried a few others and they fell flat. When I heard you were coming out with a Highlander trilogy that was going to be a different kind of ‘Banks’ story,(…)

Dear Ms. Hewitt: My first thought when I started this book is “another Balfour sisters’ story.” I feel like I’ve read a dozen of them so far. Surely Mr. Balfour couldn’t have fathered all these women, right? Right. Zoe, who thought she was a Balfour all her life, turns out to be illegitimate, but raised(…)

Dear Ms. Kendrick: I subscribe to the Harlequin Presents digital package which means I receive eight books a month delivered to my digital inbox for under $25.00. Generally I think this is a pretty good deal as I like the emotional agnst packaged in small consumable portions. I can read these books in under two(…)

I think I equate the blue and gold covers with babies and the red covers with career women? Whatever the reason, I consciously went(…)

Dear Ms. Bennet: I have to tell you up front that you will not want to read this review, not that I think you will, but in case you have a Google Alert set up, this is something that you should just delete. /start rant (there will be spoilers and maybe a little blood) This(…)

Dear Ms. Bradley: I admit that this is my first experience with you so despite your big backlist, it’s like a debut for me. Unfortunately, the book is like it’s title–trite and predictable. I suppose for fans of the regular regency historical, this book will fulfill that jones. The one good thing about this book(…)

Dear Ms. Christopher: Thank you for sending us this book for review. I have to admit that when I first read that the heroine was a spoiled rich girl, I groaned. Paris Hilton, unfortunately, is like the poster child for spoiled rich girls and I couldn’t imagine enjoying a romance showcasing someone like her. However,(…)

Dear Ms O’Reilly, Sequels can be a dangerous thing. If I enjoyed the previous book, will the next one live up to it? Or will it bomb for me and somehow taint what I feel for the one (s) I previously liked? Will secondary characters be twisted out of recognition when it’s their turn at(…)
