REVIEW: Thin Ice by Liana Laverentz

REVIEW: Thin Ice by Liana Laverentz

Dear Ms. Laverentz: This book was originally reviewed by Jayne about four years ago, and I intended to read it after she wrote her review but then other books caught my attention and I forgot.  I ended up buying this book in January because it was included on a sports romance list at Goodreads.  It had(…)

REVIEW: Along Came Quinn by Suzanne Rossi

REVIEW: Along Came Quinn by Suzanne Rossi

Dear Ms Rossi, I’ll be honest and say that it’s the slight resemblance to the plot of “Romancing the Stone” which got me to look at then buy your book, “Along Came Quinn.” I’m a sucker for that film and for adventurous road romances. Danger, villains, treasure, jungle rot and watching a hero and heroine(…)

REVIEW: Thin Ice by Liana Laverentz

REVIEW: Thin Ice by Liana Laverentz

Dear Ms. Laverentz, Recently I read one of Jane’s reviews of a sports themed novel (using football instead of hockey). You use the world of the NHL as the background for your hero, Eric Cameron. I’ll be honest and admit that I know just enough about hockey and medicine, the background of the heroine Dr.(…)

REVIEW:  Desert Guardian by Karen Duvall

REVIEW: Desert Guardian by Karen Duvall

Dear Mrs Duvall, I’ve got to say this is one of the more unusual suspense novels I’ve read lately. There’s not an ex-Navy Seal, sheriff, or former black-ops member of any kind in sight. No mafia hit men, billionaire’s daughter in danger or any of the other standard operating procedures for romance suspense novels in(…)

REVIEW:  Sundial by Carrie Lofty

REVIEW: Sundial by Carrie Lofty

Dear Ms. Lofty, Wow, what a great way to start off my new year’s reading. Yes, I actually finished this novella in early January but took my sweet time actually writing a letter about it. Real life is a beotch, doncha know? I want to congratulate you on a wonderful, inventive plot. It’s one I’ve(…)

REVIEW: Don’t Fence Me In by Marianne Arkins

REVIEW: Don’t Fence Me In by Marianne Arkins

Dear Ms Arkins, I adore finding romances set in unusual times or places which is why I jumped on “Don’t Fence Me In” when I saw it listed at Fictionwise. I’ve read some great short stories that managed to completely convince me of the couple’s HEA. And then I’ve read some that just didn’t quite(…)

REVIEW: Freedom’s Touch (Legacy of the Celtic Brooch Book 2) by Sarita Leone

Dear Ms Leone, Most American Civil War books I’ve read are set in the South so finding that takes place in Pennsylvania is a treat, especially when it deals with the Underground Railroad. As the Civil War rages, Kay Lane does what most women do–she works to keep her country home intact, struggles to manage(…)
