Review: Rocky Mountain Freedom
Rocky Mountain Freedom by Vivian Arend
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I loved this book. I really enjoyed the previous books in the series and this one had just that little bit more. Having spent a lot of time with Travis in the previous books seeing him work through his issues and get his happy ending was really special.
When I read the synopsis, I wasn't sure this book would be my taste. But I am so glad I read it and can't wait for the next Six Pack book. Everyone should have the kind of understanding in their family that the Coleman's do.

Review: To Dance With the Devil
To Dance With the Devil by Cat Adams
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I love the Celia books. Celia has so much going on in her life but she just pulls up her big girl pants and deals with it. No whining, no blaming just deals. Great book.

Review: Zombies! A Love Story
Zombies! A Love Story by Maggie Shayne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Zombies, A Love Story by Maggie Shayne
I loved this story but I wish it had been longer. I haven't jumped on the Zombie bandwagon but if they were all like this I would.
I really liked the characters and the way they solved the problem was great.

Review: Dick Francis's Refusal
Dick Francis's Refusal by Felix Francis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
How can you go wrong with a Sid Halley book? Some of the 1st mysteries I read were Dick Francs books and Felix Francis continues the legacy with Refusal.
Great book with the usual horses, jockeys and mystery to be solved.

Review: Dark Witch
Dark Witch by Nora Roberts
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Dark Witch started a little slow and it was a little hard getting to know the characters but as usual Nora Roberts pulled it off. It isn't one of my favorite Roberts' books but I suspect by the end of the trilogy I'll be completely engrossed in the world she has created.
One thing I noticed as I was reading - I felt like I was in Ireland. There is just enough dialect to make me feel like I was there but no so much it drive me crazy as I usually hate dialect in a book. The description of the the country really make me want to visit.

Review: Wait For Me
Wait For Me by Elisabeth Naughton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I have mixed feelings about this book. I loved the premise and characters were well drawn. Kate/Annie a little clearer than Ryan.
To have no memory of almost your entire life would be hard to handle. To then find out that the little memory you do have is lies would be devastating. That's what happened to Kate/Annie.
Ryan lost his wife 5 years previously, comes home from work and finds a woman that looks almost exactly like his late wife in the street in front of his house.
I can't even imagine being either of the them.
I felt the author took a few short cuts to the happy ending and the resolution of the mystery was a little rushed.

Review: Between Heaven and Texas
Between Heaven and Texas by Marie Bostwick
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Recommended by a friend (Thanks, Helen) when I started reading I wasn't sure I would like the book at all. But the characters were interesting enough and made me curious enough that I kept reading. Before I knew it I was hooked and couldn't swipe the pages fast enough.
The relationship between the twins and their mother seemed quite realistic to me.
Really the only negative is there isn't a direct sequel I would have loved to read more.

Review: A Liaden Universe Constellation: Volume I
A Liaden Universe Constellation: Volume I by Sharon Lee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
The stories in this anthology had all been previously published in one version or another but I hadn't read them so was thrilled to read them here.
All the stories take place within the Liaden Universe but not necessarily with characters that have appeared in the Liaden novels.
I loved reading the stories but unfortunately now I feel a strong need to start rereading the whole series and with the size of my TBR mountain, that is not a good thing. Good thing I read fast.
Looking forward to the next volume of stories in January.

Review: Fifth Grave Past the Light
Fifth Grave Past the Light by Darynda Jones
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
It takes me a little while to get used to the writing style with each book but once I get into it, I really enjoy the story.
The mystery was a little hard to solve, which is a good thing.
Biggest negative (which isn't really a negative) is that when I finish I want to read the next one NOW.

Review: After Dark: The Darkest Angel/Shadow Hunter
After Dark: The Darkest Angel/Shadow Hunter by Gena Showalter
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I had read the Showalter story, The Darkest Angel, previously, but it is a good look at the Lords of the Underworld so I read it again.
The Kait Ballenger is an introduction to a new series. It did read a little like a first book but thay may be because of the short format. I've already added the next book to my Want-To-Read list.

Review: Reading Between the Lines
Reading Between the Lines by Lauren Dane
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I always enjoy Lauren Dane and this was no exception. It did read like an early book with less complex sentence structure and maybe a little less development of the characters.
I would enjoy reading more about the world created here. Hint, Hint.

Review: Lost Souls
Lost Souls by Delilah Devlin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Enjoyable book. We see more or Cait and Sam rather than a new couple as many sequels do. There is an interesting dynamic between Cait & Sam, her ex-partner and ex-husband. And Lost Souls moved their new, after divorce, relationship further towards possible reconciliation and we saw more of Sam's motivations.
The new "full-moon case" they had was a doozy and not something I had ever read before. It is kind of nice reading something other than weres and vamps.

Review: Dire Desires
Dire Desires by Stephanie Tyler
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I really like the world the Dire Wolves live in but the writing style of the Dire books drives me nuts. I felt like I was being told everything that was going on instead actually seeing it, if that makes sense. Once I got past the 1st half of the books either I got used to it or the style changed because the last half was better than the first.
I love the Sydney Croft books (with Larissa Ione) and I enjoyed Tyler's SEAL books so I can't figure out why the Dire books bug me so much.

Review: True Love
True Love by Jude Deveraux
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
How lucky can a girl get, three really great books in a week. Whistling Past the Graveyard by Susan Crandall, this one and Forgotten Sins by Rebecca Zanetti (review coming up.)
I loved this book. It started out just a little slow as I got used the the author's writing style but once I got into it I couldn't put it down.
I have to admit here that I'm a Montgomery / Taggart family fan from way back when and that might have influenced my opinion a little but only a little.
Technically this is the first in a new series called Nantucket Brides. Hero is "new generation" Montgomery and various Montgomerys & Taggarts make a well thought out appearance.
I really enjoyed visiting Nantucket and feel like i could find my way around were I to visit, and this book really makes me want to visit.
The interaction of the characters seemed very realistic and held true throughout the book.
This one is defiantly on the list for a reread right before the next one comes out, whenever that is, I've been unable to find that info which is driving me crazy.

Review: Talon/Xavier
Talon/Xavier by Alexandra Ivy

I enjoy this series but the stories are so short and almost always end on a bit of a cliffhanger which is getting a little annoying.

2176 series by Susan Grant; Kathleen Nance; Liz Maverick; Patti O'Shea - Friday's Feature
Legend of Banzai Maguire ~ Day of Fire ~ Shadow Runners ~ Power of Two ~ Scarlet Empress
Susan Grant; Kathleen Nance; Liz Maverick; Patti O'Shea
In the 21st and 22nd Centuries, the United States changed and grew. Now
the United Colonies of Earth dominate the globe. But a mysterious
voice is broadcasting treason, inciting revolution and referring to the
"ideals of 1776" - and to an enigmatic figure named Banzai Maguire.
DAY OF FIRE - Canada: For over a century it's been closed off, quarantined. Now, in 2176, its people thrive. The country still needs peacekeepers, though - and the Mounties are there. "Be It All. Do It All." Those are the high-tech police force's twin mottos. They're Day Daniels's mottos, too.
THE SHADOW RUNNERS - Newgate, Australia: In the 22nd century, history repeats itself. Part penal colony, part dumping ground for toxic waste, the land is controlled by "the Parliament," a gang of dissipated self-styled aristocrats. To survive here, you have to know the tricks. Like Jenny Red. She's been Down and made it out to tell the tale.
THE POWER OF TWO - To find Banzai, the UCE assigns Cai. She's the "anchor," the techie half of a Quandem: a pair of elite operatives intended for just such covert action. Neural implants allow her to sit back in a control chair and feed information to her partner, the dark-souled Jacob Tucker.
THE SCARLET EMPRESS - Shot down over Korea, modern-day U. S. A. F. Fighter pilot Cameron "Scarlet" Tucker is put in bio-stasis. She wakes 170 years later to find her best friend survived, too - the "legendary" Banzai Maguire is being held for treason in the country that was once her beloved United States.

Friday's Feature - The Fates by Kristine Grayson
The Fates by Kristine Grayson (Katherine Kristine Rusch)
What happened to Sleeping Beauty and Prince Charming after the Happily Ever After? Find out in Utterly Charming & Thoroughly Kissed. See what other fairy tale characters appear in the books of the Fairy Tale Romances series (The Fates.)
Thoroughly Kissed - Emma awakens to an entirely different world than the one she lived in a thousand years ago, and although she's the real Sleeping Beauty, her life is no fairy tale. After parting ways with her supposed Prince Charming, she's determined to be a normal girl.
Completely Smitten - My name is Andrew Vari, and I'm short (very short), and not exactly handsome. Actually, that's only partly true. My real name is Darius, and if you caught a glimpse of my true form, you might just swoon. It was my arrogance about my looks and magical powers that got me into this fix.
Simply Irresistible - My name's Vivian Kinneally, and I can't believe this is happening to me. I just moved here to Portland, Oregon, to take over a business left to me by my favorite aunt - nothing earth-shattering... or so you'd think, right? I've always been a little bit psychic - but my powers never hinted at what was to come when I let three gorgeous, terrified women into my home.
Absolutely Captivated - The name's Sinclair. Zoe Sinclair, P.I. My stomping grounds are the neon-lit streets of Las Vegas, where anything can happen. In my half century here, I've seen plenty. Now might be a good time to mention that I'm a 150-year-old mage, though I don't look a day over thirty.
Totally Spellbound - L.A. psychologist Megan Kineally has always had her feet planted firmly on the ground, which is more than she can say for her pampered clients. So she has to wonder what she's now doing hanging around in Vegas with her brother, Travers, his mysterious new fiancée, his son, Kyle, and three loopy women who call themselves The Fates.
Review: Whistling Past the Graveyard
Whistling Past the Graveyard by Susan Crandall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
What a fabulous book. I have always really enjoyed everything Crandall has written so I automatically added this one to my list without even looking to see what it was about. After I got it and looked at the synopsis I was surprised and not sure I would enjoy it. I read the first page and was even more unsure.
Boy, was I wrong.
I read in one sitting and frankly, couldn't put it down.
Crandall does a wonderful job bringing Starla to life. Starla is a nine-year-old growing up in Mississippi in 1963. She lives with her grandmother while her mother is becoming a country music star in Nashville and her father works on a oil rig in the gulf. She has the normal dreams of wanting to live with both her parents and when she runs away decides that she will go to her mother and then her father will come and they will live happily ever after. Not surprisingly, it's not that easy.

Innerworld by Marilyn Campbell
Tuesday's Featured set is Innerworld by Marilyn Campbell
From a secret world to outer space to time travel, this series has everything that I love in paranormals.
Pyramid of Dreams - She was a stranger to his futuristic world, an outsider in the rainbow-hued crystal city who must not be allowed to return to her home. Yet though Aster would never be accepted by his people, Romulus found himself irresistibly drawn to the beautiful pariah. His fierce ambition made a formal joining with her impossible, but the fever of mating drove him to tangle his hands in her silver-blonde hair, to taste her melting lips, to teach her the exquisite pleasures of his exotic brand of sensuality. How could he deny himself a future with her in this land of desire and delight where even the wildest dreams could become reality?
Topaz Dreams - Fierce and cunning, Falcon had always denied his emotions, believing they would sap his incredible strength. Then the empath set out to find the ring that could destroy his futuristic world, and he ran into an unexpected setback - a beauty who roused his untested desire.
Stardust Dreams - Cherry Cochran, a beautiful actress from earth who witnesses a murder, is suddenly swept toward the remotest stars in the spaceship of her mysterious abductor, the handsome Gallant Voyager. Cherry does't know if this sexy space tracker is using her in a game of interstellar intrigue. She is only aware of the fierce attraction they have for each other and of her burning desire for his love. But can she save him from the lures of the voracious queen of a hostile planet, whose apparent lust for Gallant is meant to obscure a deadly danger?
Stolen Dreams - Shara Locke, Innerworld's scientist, is a beautiful woman with important secrets. When handsome archeologist Gabriel Drumayne seeks her out, he is aware that she has a device to make travel into the past possible... and he is aware that she is about to embark on just such a perilous journey. Her mission is to save Earth from a future plot to destroy it.

Imperium by Kathleen Morgan
Heart's Surrender ~ Knowing Crystal ~ Crystal Fire ~ Firestar ~ Heart's Lair ~ Firestorm
It has been quite a few years since I've read this series and it must have been before Byron because I know I read one of the last ones first. I remember thinking when I read the last page, there have to be other books about these characters and went on a hunt. It was a lot harder to track down connected books back then.
To my mind this series had it all, outer space, other planets, and Cat People!

Loving Mercy - Mercy Clarke had no trouble getting a hundred head of cattle to Abilene. Getting back home through five hundred miles of untamed frontier is something else again, especially with a handsome gambler like Thad Buchanan tagging along. He swears to pay her in gold if she guides him to Fort Victory, but she doesn't quite trust his fine manners and gentlemanly ways. And then there's that look in his eyes - he could make her forget that she's sworn off men for good....
Loving Miranda - Miranda Chase can't refuse when her pregnant sister Mercy asks her to return to their Colorado ranch, even though her sister's new family is a painful reminder of everything Miranda knows she'll never have. She'll travel to the ends of the earth to protect Mercy's newfound happiness - even if it means sweet-talking Benjamin Lansing, whose claim to Mercy's ranch reaches beyond money. But despite Miranda's distrust of the man, the sweet words come easily, as do the kisses....

MostlyRomance Monday Featured Set
Monday's Featured set
Men of Honor by Kathryn Fox
Men of Honor by Kathryn Fox
Reunion - As she journeyed across the northern frontier
to join her fiancé, Lauren often thought of the hardships she
would face as the wife of a Canadian Mountie. But she never
imagined that her first challenge would be her own betrothed, for
Adam McPhail now seems distant, cautious, not the same loving
suitor who won her heart two years before. Shaken and confused,
Lauren wonders if the marriage she's dreamed of has ended before
it has begun. The Seduction - Fame, fortune, and critical acclaim awaited aspiring journalist Samantha Wilder, if she could just uncover a scandal that would shake up the Northwest Mounted Police. Heading to the Yukon Territory, she was certain that with all the gold dust flying around, at least one of them had to be on the take. She just needed to know where to look. But even cynical Sam was shocked when clues led to Inspector Duncan McLeod, whose integrity seemed as solid as his sterling reputation. The Healing - Pregnant, broke, and on the run after killing her violent lover in self-defense, Jenny Hanson needs a safe haven. Hoping to hide from the authorities amid the chaos of the Gold Rush, she heads for Dawson City - only to hitch a ride with the very man sent to bring her to justice. North West Mounted Policeman Mike Finnegan is a man who left behind a troubled past to serve the law. He's also a man offering her the protection and love she has been yearning for. |
