With republication, there are updating risks and rewards

I was reading the Jennifer Greene books which are being re-released through Carina Press and I was struck by the small ways in which the book details were being updated. One character refers to text messaging another character. Another character was watching CSI and the kids were listening to Lady Gaga.   These Greene books were(…)

REVIEW: The Billionaire’s Handler by Jennifer Greene

“A whopping multi-million-dollar inheritance should have been Carolina Daniels’s dream come true. Instead, the money brought nothing but vultures looking for their share of the wealth.

REVIEW: A Daring Proposition by Jennifer Greene

REVIEW: A Daring Proposition by Jennifer Greene

Dear Ms. Greene: This is a reprint of a formerly published book.   Interestingly some of the book has been updated to make it seem more modern such as references to text messaging and more current popular culture references and, possibly even the clothes although I wasn’t quite sure of the latter.** The set up has(…)

So when I saw this offered at eharlequin, I decided, “why not?” At first, I thought it might buck my so-so luck with this genre. That is until the end when(…)

REVIEW: Blame it on Paris by Jennifer Greene

Dear Ms Greene, Poor Paris, it always gets the blame for everything. And this time it’s at fault for bringing Kel and Will together. Not that it’s really Paris that does anything. More that it’s Kel’s fault for picking a bad neighborhood to rent a hotel room in and then taking all her important stuff(…)

RITA Trash Talkers: The Contemporary Novelists

This is hilarious. These women are in it to win it. Oh and if anyone has the story about the Nora Roberts/Susan Elizabeth Phillips smackdown, I want to hear about it in the comments. Even if you have to make it up, I want to hear about it. Link here if the embedded video doesn’t(…)

REVIEW: Sparkle by Jennifer Greene
