red garnier paper marriage proposition

REVIEW: Paper Marriage Proposition by Red Garnier

JaneC+ Reviewsmarriage-of-convenience / Red Garnier / revenge-plot / Silhouette-Desire5 Comments

Dear Ms. Garnier: You are really skilled at writing sexual tension and emotional agnst.   One of the things I remember about your single title contemporary, The Satin Sash, was the high level of emotion and the gripping chemistry that permeated many of the scenes.   Every encounter between the characters is ... more >

REVIEW: The Secret Child & The Cowboy CEO by Janice Maynard

JaneD ReviewsSecret-Baby / Silhouette-Desire15 Comments

Dear Ms. Maynard: In the pantheon of overused tropes, the secret baby one is probably my least favorite. I wonder if my sensitivity to this has grown since I’ve been a parent myself or whether repeated exposure to this theme has just plain tired me out. But it isn’t just ... more >

REVIEW: Bedding the Secret Heiress by Emilie Rose

Dear Ms. Rose, As I mentioned in my review of “Bedding the Secret Heiress,” it was the excerpt for this book which got me to get both of them. After my disappointment with “Heiress” I seriously debated whether or not to just call it a day with this series since ... more >

REVIEW: Transformed into the Frenchman’s Mistress by Barbara Dunlop

JayneBook Reviews / C Reviews Category / C+ ReviewsContemporary / France / Harlequin / Silhouette-Desire6 Comments

Dear Ms. Dunlop, A friend of mine married her Frenchman so when I see books with French heroes, I check them out. Since I’ve found that the Desire line tends towards less assholic heroes, I decided to give “Transformed into the Frenchman’s Mistress” a shot. If there was anything Charlotte ... more >

REVIEW: The Tycoon’s Secret by Kasey Michaels

JayneB Reviews / B Reviews Category / Book Reviewsacross the tracks / Contemporary / Harlequin / Kasey-Michaels / Silhouette-Desire3 Comments

Dear Ms. Michaels, I was tempted to go back and read this part of the “Gifts from a Billionaire” series after loving Leslie LaFoy’s “The Money Man’s Seduction.” It’s fast, it’s funny and, though I wish some aspects of the book had been explored in greater depth, so far I’m ... more >
