Not Wicked Enough by Carolyn Jewel

REVIEW: Not Wicked Enough by Carolyn Jewel

JanineB- ReviewsDuke / friends-to-lovers / heiress / Historical Romances / Regency England / treasure31 Comments

Dear Ms. Jewel, I loved your 2009 book, Scandal, and very much enjoyed Indiscreet, which came out later the same year. So when I learned that you were publishing a new historical called Not Wicked Enough I got excited, and asked Jane if she could send me the ARC. Having ... more >

REVIEW: The Plumed Bonnet by Mary Balogh

Recommended Read

Dear Ms. Balogh, Recently The Famous Heroine and The Plumed Bonnet were rereleased together in a 2-in-1 edition after many years out of print, and I reviewed and recommended The Famous Heroine.

REVIEW: The Iron Duke by Meljean Brook

JanineA- Reviews / B+ ReviewsAsian heroine / Duke / interracial-romance / law-enforcement / murder-investigation / racism / steampunk43 Comments

Dear Ms. Brook, The Iron Duke is a steampunk romance and it is very different in setting and genre from most of the romances I've read. It’s not really paranormal, but rather science fiction set in a partly-historical setting. A kind of "what if" world. What if nanotechnology had been ... more >

REVIEW: Don’t Tempt Me by Loretta Chase

JanetB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book Reviews19th century / captivity narrative / Duke63 Comments

Dear Ms. Chase: After I read last year’s book, Your Scandalous Ways, I knew my expectations were going to be set incredibly high for anything that came after.   And thankfully, Don’t Tempt Me is not a book in the same vein, but instead hearkens back to the Carsington series, especially ... more >
