Half Past Dead Cover
January 11, 2010

REVIEW: Half Past Dead by Zoe Archer and Bianca D’Arc

JanetC ReviewsBrava / featured / Paranormal / zombies20 Comments

Dear Ms. Archer and Ms. D’Arc: When Zoe Archer offered ARC copies of your new two-novella book, Half Past Dead on Twitter, I enthusiastically requested one, with more than a little curiosity about how zombies would work in Romance. I would have to read substantially more books to fully quench ... more >

REVIEW: Coming Undone by Lauren Dane

JaneC+ Reviewsballet / Contemporary / Erotic-Romance / featured / Lauren Dane / tattoos17 Comments

Dear Ms. Dane: I included this book in January’s recommended reads because I like straight up contemporaries that feature two people falling in love.   This is one of those books.   It is, however, a qualified recommendation for a couple of reasons.

Dear Ms. Crandall: I liked Pitch Black enough to buy two other backlist titles of yours: Seeing Red and Back Roads. I found I liked your overall balance of suspense and romance so I was excited to read Sleep No More.   The   tone of this book was quite creepy, particularly ... more >

REVIEW: The Soldier of Raetia by Heather Domin

JayneBook Reviews / C+ Reviewsancient-Rome / featured / Historical Romances / m/m romance / Military / Rome3 Comments

Dear Ms. Domin, Thanks again for contacting us about reviewing “The Soldier of Raetia.” I’m a pushover for just about anything regarding ancient Rome and having reviewed lots of m/f books about the era, I was primed to try some m/m toga action. At least I thought I remembered it ... more >

Dear Ms. Andrews, On the Edge was the first of your books that I’ve read, but it will not be the last. Rose Drayton and her two young brothers, Jack and Georgie, live in the Edge, an area where two dimensions known as the Weird and the Broken overlap. In ... more >
