Scoring Lacey by Jenna Howard
June 3, 2011

REVIEW: Scoring Lacey by Jenna Howard

JayneB ReviewsContemporary / hockey / Liquid Silver Books / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man16 Comments

Dear Ms. Howard, Older women-younger men must be the new vampires. I’m seeing quite a lot of it in the past few months but that didn’t stop me from picking this one up. What can I say, I’m weak for (hot, hunky, muscled) sports heroes. So, um plot. Older heroine ... more >

Turn It Up by Vivian Arend

REVIEW: Turn It Up by Vivian Arend

JayneB- ReviewsContemporary / marriage-of-convenience / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / Samhain-publishing9 Comments

Dear Ms. Arend, While heroines aren’t all the sweet young things they used to be when I started reading romances way too many years ago, it’s still nice to read about ones who are over age 30. And to have a younger man hot on her trail and determined to ... more >

Two Against the Odds by Joan Kilby

REVIEW: Two Against the Odds by Joan Kilby

JayneB Reviews / Book Reviews / EbooksArtist / Australia / Harlequin / Harlequin SuperRomance / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / opposites attract14 Comments

“You’re being audited.” That’s hardly his most winning opening line, but Rafe Ellersley isn’t here to make friends. He’d promised himself-‘and his boss-‘that this audit would be different. This time, he would be the consummate Australian Tax Office investigator. Cool, detached, professional. He’d bring Lexie Thatcher, tax-dodging artisan, to justice ... more >

Aanrijding in Moscou (Moscow, Belgium – English title) (2008) Genre: Romance/Drama Grade: B- Here’s a film I took a chance on, not expecting much but which turned out to be surprisingly good. Those interested in older woman/younger man themes take note: the heroine is a full 12 years older than ... more >

A Conspiracy of Kings cover
April 5, 2010

REVIEW: A Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner

JanineA Review Category / A- Reviews / Book ReviewsFantasy Romance / gods / Mediterranean setting / Megan-Whalen-Turner / myth / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / Queen’s Thief series / romantic / thief / Young-Adult20 Comments

Dear Ms. Turner, Somehow, I've become a huge fan of your YA series. My love for the books has taken me by surprise because the first book, The Thief, was slow to engage me and aimed at a younger audience than the later books. It wasn't until the second half ... more >

Star Gazing by Linda Gillard
February 25, 2010

REVIEW: Star Gazing by Linda Gillard

JanineBook Reviews / DNF Reviewsblind / Contemporary / island / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / Scotland28 Comments

Dear Ms. Gillard, Your review request caught my eye because you described the heroine of your novel, Star Gazing as congenitally blind, and mentioned that this story takes place on the Isle of Skye. You also mentioned that the book was short listed for RNA’s Romantic Novel of the Year ... more >
