REVIEW: Mucho Caliente by Francesca Prescott

JayneBook Reviews / C Reviews Category / C+ Reviews / Ebookschick-lit / Contemporary / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / Spain1 Comments

REVIEW: Red’s Hot Honky-Tonk Bar by Pamela Morsi

JayneB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / Book ReviewsContemporary / family relationships / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / second chances / Texas5 Comments

Dear Ms. Bishop, While your other novels have been hit or miss (mostly miss) for me, I’m a longtime fan of your Black Jewel books. I discovered them at a time when I was about to give up on the fantasy genre and because they rekindled my love for a ... more >

REVIEW: 22 Nights by Linda Winstead Jones

JaneBook Reviews / C Reviews Category / C+ ReviewsFantasy Romance / forced-marriage / medieval / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man2 Comments

Dear Ms. Winstead Jones: First off, the cover on this book is a bit deceiving.   The setting of the book is a fantasy historical world set in a made up kingdom (I always think of this kind of setting as middle earth but have also considered it to be medieval ... more >

REVIEW: Unlaced by Jaci Burton, Jasmine Haynes, Joey Hill, Denise Rossetti

JaneB Reviews Category / B- Reviews / D ReviewsBDSM / Caribbean / Contemporary / multiple partners / Older-Woman-/-Younger-Man / Paranormal / reunited-lovers / Threesome20 Comments

Unlaced, as you might have guessed by the number of authors in the title of the post, is an anthology. It is an erotic romance anthology of three contemporary stories and one paranormal contemporary story. I admit that I did not read the last story by Denise Rossetti. I just ... more >
