Dear Ms. McCarty: Your books have a beautiful look to them. They look and feel lush, heavy, as if the reader should curl up in front the fireplace with a hot toddy, a blanket and commence reading. Unfortunately for me, if I had done that, I would have been cooked to a crisp because this(…)

Dear Ms. Ryan-Davis: This is a book in which I loved the voice but didn’t love the execution of the story which means I’ll be on the look out for future books despite this one not working out for me. John Raincrow has been dispatched by C.C. Carver’s family to bring her home which dovetails(…)

So yes, it seems like everyday is a giveaway but it just kind of happened that way. I don’t want Jo Goodman’s Never Love a Lawman get lost in the shuffle. We have 10 ARCs to give away to 10 random commenters. One of the books is the copy I read but I wanted to(…)

Harlequin is going to allow us to purchase the vintage cover paper goods. Woot. I am ordering some of those matchbook notepads and some of those little paper booklets and postcards and WHERE IS MY COFFEE MUG??? Seriously, Harlequin heard our voices, you guys! It’s Western Week in blogland. Kristie J started it off. First(…)

Dear Ms. Watt, I love a contemporary that doesn’t ask me to put up with idiot behavior or a stupid premise that has to be explained every which way to try and get me to believe in it. Thank you for giving me such a book. Now that his rodeo career is over, Kade Danning(…)

Dear Mrs. Bylin, Until recently, Readers looking for a western set, historical romance have had to hunt. Now there seems to be a growing number to feed our need for American historicals on the western frontier. But while some still feature the standard gunslinger, yours offers something different. A Bible slinging hero who’s already fallen(…)

Dear Ms. Dahl: Anyone who has read your contemporary Romance, Talk Me Down, knows that its heroine, Molly, writes erotic fiction under the name Holly Summers, including a little work called The Wicked West, an homage to her very own hero, Ben. So what a clever promotion to actually publish this story under the pen(…)

Dear Ms. Hudson, Keeping track of everything in previous books of a series must be hard enough when you’re the only author, but to manage it with two different people writing in the series is something I admire. The lower grade is because this isn’t really a stand alone book. I think readers could start(…)

Dear Ms. Rawlins, Since it’s been forever since I read a time travel story, I was all over yours when I saw it listed under the Blaze March offerings. I think that the blurb might be slightly misleading as I was expecting something a little hotter than what I got, but since a lot of(…)

Dear Ms. Minton, I’ve just recently begun to watch bull riding on ESPN. Wow, I can see why it’s called one of the most exciting yet dangerous sports today. I’ve also put a few DVDs about the sport in my Netflix queue and was happy to see some of them featuring interviews with and information(…)

Dear Ms West, While poking around among the drafts for “Reviews I’ve Just Never Got Around To” I discovered that I’d neglected to write a letter for the last book in your Men of Pride County series. It’s a major oversight on my part and one for which I apologize. If ever a series deserved(…)

Dear Ms. Finch, I love a good American set historical romance. And I’m glad to see that Westerns are coming back into fashion. The brawny Texas Rangers, open skies, roughing it under a canopy of stars, coyotes singing in the distance, rattlesnakes rattling, flash floods and tornadoes …’er maybe not all of that but I’ve(…)

Dear Ms. Lane, Whenever I see a non-Regency Harlequin Historical, I make sure to check it out. Since I enjoyed your last book, “On the Wings of Love,” I also had high hopes for “The Borrowed Bride.” Though it doesn’t break any ground as far as the setting or the plot, it hit the spot,(…)

Dear Ms. Potter, This older book is certainly a different approach to the Late Hostilities. Readers tired of the standard plantation settings and who enjoy Westerns might like it as it’s set mainly in Colorado and Texas. Then it carries on a bit further into the months after the war. Colonel Ben Morgan has been(…)

Dear Ms. Wiest, “Apache Eyes” is the second novella from you I’ve read. And it’s totally different from the first one. Not just because it’s a f/f historical but because it lacks the black humor that made “Practical Purposes” such a joy to read. But that’s okay, as it shows that you’re not just a(…)
