REVIEW: Hellbent by Cherie Priest

JiaC+ ReviewsAtlanta / Bantam Dell Ballantine / OCD / San-Francisco / Seattle / thief / Urban-Fantasy / vampires4 Comments

REVIEW: In the Air Tonight by Stephanie Tyler

JaneD ReviewsBantam Dell Ballantine / romantic-suspense / Special forces / Stephanie-Tyler / supernatural16 Comments

Dear Ms. Tyler: I choose this book because I like romantic suspense stories  with former special forces heroes (and heroines), I liked Hard to Hold, the first in your previous series, and this story featured a sister and BFF of an older brother romance.  The blurb alerted me to the ... more >
