Dear Ms. Morgan: I was thrilled to request this book for review after Jayne wrote so lovingly about the first Highland games book which was another battle of the sexes. Many times those types of stories will deter me because often times the heroine is presented as a ball busting bitch that has to be(…)

Dear Ms. Chambers: It’s always exciting to read a debut book by a fellow blogger, although it can be a bit daunting, too. What if I don’t like it? Will that affect the way I read your blog? Fortunately, I enjoyed The Lady’s Secret, a book that mixes old and new genre conventions in interesting(…)

Dear Ms. Schmidt, I am coming to look forward to your many novels set on the Massachusetts coastal islands. Plus you use the turn-of-the-century (turn of the last century I should say) era which is something I’d love to see more of. Nola Burns initially appears to be an uptight, dried up spinster who’s as(…)
