REVIEW: Bound by Sally Gunning

By Jayne • Apr 5th, 2008 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Reviews

Dear Mrs Gunning,
A friend of mine told me about your first book in this series. Raved about it in fact. And I had put it down on my TBB list but just never got around to making the purchase. When Jane sent me the arc for “Bound,” I got all excited and told myself that [...]



REVIEW: Dress Rehearsal by Jennifer O’Connell

By Jayne • Aug 21st, 2007 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, C Reviews Category, C+ Reviews, Reviews

Dear Mrs O’Connell,
I’m still not sure what made me pick up your book in Waldenbooks and decide to try it. I can’t remember if it was turned out on the shelf or if it was just a lucky grab but I enjoyed reading it despite a few problems. I also intend to recommend it to [...]



REVIEW: Billionaire Next Door by Jessica Bird

By Jane • Aug 2nd, 2007 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Reviews

Dear Ms. Bird:
One thing that seems a lost art in the new crop of romances is its failure to focus on the development of the actual relationship. Romance, at its best, is character driven with the central plot being the intersecting of two individuals to mesh into one stronger, better unit. A great [...]



REVIEW: The Sleeping Beauty Proposal by Sarah Strohmeyer

By Jayne • Jun 20th, 2007 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Reviews

Dear Mrs Strohmeyer,
I loved The Cinderella Pact and was delighted when Jane mailed a review copy of your new hardback, The Sleeping Beauty Proposal. I found it enjoyable and funny but not quite as good as the first book.
At 36, Genie Michaels is beginning to feel that she has hit the snooze button [...]



REVIEW: All or Nothing by Claire Cross

By Jane • Apr 5th, 2007 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Reviews

Dear Ms. Cross:
I read this one against my will. I had started your last book, One More Time but then stopped after the first three chapters which featured a lawyer basically throwing a case because he believed his client was guilty. When I received All or Nothing, I was sure I didn’t [...]



REVIEW: Take Me Tonight by Roxanne St. Claire

By Jane • Mar 28th, 2007 • Category: C Reviews Category, C- Reviews, Reviews

Dear Ms. St. Claire:
I availed myself of the Simon & Schuster early ebook release program and snagged the ebook version of Take Me Tonight (Bullet Catchers, No 3) a few weeks ago. This week, the print version makes its way into bookstores. I had enjoyed the previous Bulletcatcher books. Unfortunately this novel required [...]



REVIEW: An Affair of Honor by Pamela Cummings

By Jayne • Feb 12th, 2007 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Ebooks, Reviews

Dear Mrs. Cummings,
I read your novel “My Rebel Belle” (TBH, I still cringe at that title) and quickly bought the rest of your published books. I had a feeling that “An Affair of Honor” might tie in with it and indeed it does, telling the story of the US Civil War from the Northern perspective. [...]



REVIEW: Dirty Little Lies by Julie Leto

By Jane • Aug 9th, 2006 • Category: B Reviews, B Reviews Category, Ebooks, Misc, Reviews

Dear Ms. Leto
It was been debated whether you write to the market or write what is in your heart. I have always voted that I want writers to write what is in their hearts because it makes for a better read. Your heart, shows through in this story and the first one in [...]
