REVIEW: So Into You by Sandra Hill

JaneBook Reviews / C Reviews Category / C+ Reviewsabortion / Contemporary / New-Orleans9 Comments

Dear Ms. Hill: I get the sense from this book that there is a whole series of stories on the LeDeux family led by Tante Lulu, a ninety two year old woman seeking to bring the thunderbolt of love to the LeDeux menfolk. Only this time, the target of the ... more >

REVIEW: Crescent City Courtship by Elizabeth White

JayneB Reviews / B Reviews Category / Book Reviews / EbooksElizabeth White / Harlequin / Harlequin Love Inspired Historical / Historical Romances / inspirational / medicine / New-Orleans5 Comments

Dear Ms. White, Last November, I recommended your book “Redeeming Gabriel.”Since then, I’ve made it a point each month to check the historical offerings from the Steeple Hill line. When I saw this new book, I jumped on it and was happy to discover that it’s a (slight) sequel to ... more >

REVIEW: Thigh High by Christina Dodd

JayneB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book Reviews / Ebooksacross the tracks / Christina-Dodd / Contemporary / New-Orleans6 Comments

Dear Mrs. Dodd, Despite the promise of eccentric aunts and zany robberies, I decided to try this contemporary novel. The conflict between sensible Nessa Dahl and undercover bank investigator Jeremiah MacNaught sounded intriguing, especially with the implied show down once the truth was revealed. And at first, things worked great ... more >

REVIEW: Blood Red by Heather Graham

JaneB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book ReviewsNew-Orleans1 Comments

Dear Ms. Graham: This is a vampire novel with great atmosphere. A little bit scary, with a whole lot of secret set in the mother of all vampire homes – New Orleans. The best part of this book was its creepy overtones, making the suspense more intense because the foreboding ... more >
