Time Out Jill Shalvis
February 20, 2012

REVIEW: Time Out by Jill Shalvis

DabneyB- ReviewsHarlequin / ice hockey / Jill-Shalvis37 Comments

Dear Ms. Shalvis: I’ve read much of what you’ve written in the past five years. I’ve found quite a few of your contemporaries irresistible: Animal Attraction and The Sweetest Thing were two of my favorite reads in 2011. I’ve been less enthralled with your Harlequin Blaze books; they seem to me to ... more >

REVIEW: Head Over Heels by Jill Shalvis

JanetB- ReviewsContemporary / Hachette / Jill-Shalvis / Small-Town / Washington State20 Comments

Dear Ms. Shalvis: When I first started the Lucky Harbor series, I wasn’t sure I would like it. I have a visceral aversion to books with cute titles set in cutely named small towns, with covers colored in pastels and adorned with cute dogs or food. But my strong appreciation ... more >

What Jane’s Been Reading, week ending September 15

Lord of the Abyss by Nalini Singh. This is a December release. It’s a full fledged fairy tale with an ugly heroine (described as having a hook nose, walks with a limp, and a misshapen body) and a somewhat virginal hero. He’s been Lord of the Abyss for as long ... more >

What Jaclyn is Reading, Week of August 8

JaclynReading ListsAbout-Us / Carolyn Crane / Christina-Dodd / Jill Myles / Jill-Shalvis / Lila-Dubois / Nalini-Singh / Reading lists28 Comments

I may be the slowest writer and least frequent reviewer of the DA crew, but I surely do read a lot. I have this funny (at least it’s funny to my husband) habit of buying more than one ebook at a time. If I’m going to go to the effort ... more >

Animal Magnetism by Jill Shalvis
January 31, 2011

REVIEW: Animal Magnetism by Jill Shalvis

JaclynC Reviewsanimals / brothers / Contemporary / Jill-Shalvis / pilot8 Comments

Dear Ms. Shalvis, I have a major problem with Animal Magnetism-‘the heroine. At its heart, Animal Magnetism is a story about the hero's emotional evolution, with the heroine and his foster brothers acting as the catalysts that jump-start that evolution. Animal Magnetism opens with Lilah Young, animal rescuer, rear-ending the ... more >

Heat is On by Jill Shalvis
August 7, 2010

REVIEW: The Heat is On by Jill Shalvis

JaneC+ ReviewsChef / Contemporary / Harlequin-Blaze / Jill-Shalvis / law-enforcement / stalker8 Comments

Dear Ms. Shalvis: This is a recommended read by Jaclyn but while I loved the tone of the book, the overall story felt very rough.   Isabella Manchelli is a free spirit who has never believed in settling down. She flits from one place to the next, enjoying her time until ... more >
