Book Review: Devoured by Emily Snow
Title: Devoured (Devoured, #1)
Author: Emily Snow
Publication Date: October 9, 2012
My Rating: 3.75 stars out of 5
This book was an emotional roller-coaster. Sienna had a lot going on; a lot of emotional demons to battle. Lucas had secrets of his own. But together these two were combustible.
From Goodreads:

Title: One Night With A Cowboy (Oklahoma Nights, #1)
Author: Cat Johnson
Publisher: Kensington Books
Publication Date: February 26, 2013
My rating: 5 out of 5
Who knew that cowboys could be as heart stopping and sexy as military men and cops?! Why did I not know this sooner?! I clearly need to rectify this situation now that author Cat Johnson has introduced me to the super sexy bull-riding, army man Tucker Jenkins.

RAID, Reading, RAID, Reading...With Some Writing Thrown In
This was essentially my week. And did I mention Raid?! Well let me just mention it again. Kristen Ashley's third book in her Unfinished Heroes series came out two days earlier than expected.

IT WAS ABSOF*@#INGAMAZING.
Anyone who has read Raid will get that reference! ;D

Title: Falling for the Lawyer
Author: Anna Clifton
Publisher: Harlequin Enterprises Australia
Publication Date: March 1, 2013
Stars: 3.5 out of 5
First I need to make a disclosure: I like books about lawyers and law related story lines. So when I saw the title of this book I knew I wanted to review it. I know, I'm a total nerd, but what can I say? As for the book itself I am happy to say that I was really impressed. Not only were the characters engaging, but the book...

Publisher: self-published
Publication Date: Sept. 1, 2011
4 out of 5 Stars
Bella Andre's Sullivan series was on sale recently and these were books I had wanted to read for awhile now. I grabbed the first five books in the series and dove into first, The Look of Love, with a vengeance.

Book Review: Never Seduce A Scot by Maya Banks
Title: Never Seduce A Scot
Author: Maya Banks
Publisher: Ballantine Books
Publication Date: Sept. 25, 2012
Ah. A highlander romance. Nothing better when it's freezing cold outside and I need something to warm me up. But even better than that? A highlander romance where the author takes the story in a different direction and has me wishing the book never ends.
From Goodreads:
Eveline Armstrong is fiercely loved and protected by her powerful clan, but outsiders consider her “touched.” B...

Writing, Reading and Great Music: A Week In Review
Starting today I will be only doing ROW80 updates on Sundays. There are several reasons for this but they all generally center around one thing. Time. With work kicking up in intensity and a whole lot of other things on my plate, I feel that by posting an update once a week will end up being more effective for me. Also, and in theory, not posting every Wednesday should leave me time to focus on getting my weekly goals done, instead of worrying about posting a mid-week update. (...

Book Review: Black Ice by Anne Stuart (Ice #1)
Title: Black Ice
Author: Anne Stuart
Publisher: Mira
Publication Date: Jan. 1, 2007
My Rating: 5 Out of 5 Stars
I have read a lot of books in my 30-plus years of, well, reading. And a lot of these are good. Some are even great. But, it is rare for me to come across a book that has to be considered one of the best books I have ever read in my entire life. Black Ice ranks up there as one of these books.
