I saw Julie James make a reference to interviewing different individuals for her books. It struck me as something I hadn’t heard of before even though I am sure that other authors have undertaken this task. You often see thanks to various individuals in the acknowledgments but I’ve never seen any one write about the(…)

Since last I wrote, I read and reviewed Patricia Gaffney’s Crooked Hearts. Here’s what else I’ve been reading: The Great Famine: Ireland’s Agony 1845-1852 by Ciarán Ó Murchadha: Because apparently one book about innocent people starving to death just wasn’t enough for me. Actually, it wasn’t until I started this book that I realized I had(…)

Dear Ms. James, I finally discovered you with the last book you wrote and got all excited when I noticed that Jane had already gotten your newest one, “A Lot Like Love” for us. Jane’s good about that. I can say that from the way I also enjoyed this one, it looks like we’re going(…)

Right there, oh yeah-’right there, don't stop!” The pillow over her heard(…)

We do this once in awhile, it’s impossible to predict, and we only fire up the site for books we really, truly dance-down-the-hall love and enjoy. It’s Save the Contemporary Time!

Dear Ms. James, How do I like this book? Let me count the ways. I do like contemporaries and even the occasional romantic suspense but rarely do they combine as well as you’ve done with “Something About You.” And wow, even the cover model kinda looks like she’s wearing the dress you described. And how(…)

Dear Ms. James: Ordinarily I don’t read books that where the protagonists are lawyers, particularly trial lawyers because so few people ever get it right. When I read the blurb for this book, I admit to mentally groaning but I couldn’t help myself from opening it up, just to take a peek. I ended up(…)
