MJ’s comments from the What's the Name of That Book??? group.

Ellah's Eggs or something like that. Can't find it in GR catalog.

Looks like she's in trouble for the free range claim... I didn't read all the info, so it may not be her so much as other providers.

I love her biker billionaire story... It's just a shame that it's four novelettes rather than a proper novle

Enjoy Alpha. Let me know if it's good.

Alpha by Jasinda Wilder?

It's on my to read list. Came out last year.

Fiona McIntosh, Betrayal: Trinity Book One: Book One of the Valisar Trilogy

It's a long shot, because it sounds like you're talking future, but this is other world. Magic is illegal in this one too.

Oops, not kids book ether.

Where she's had the hots for him for ages but hasn't been able to work up the nerve... So she decides to pretend to be her sister for the night?

I haven't read any of yours, but have started on Gracelings.

The Dragon Prince is a series... But worth it.
Dragon Prince by Melanie Rawn

There is also Betrayal by Fiona McIntosh, also a three book series.

Ok, dot points.

- she is a freelance journalist who's 'trade mark' is writing a series of stories from taxi cab perspective
- when she hits her new island, Martha's vineyard (I think), she realizes the taxi angles not going to work so when the cab driver suggest she try's weddings because there are tonnes of mega weddings each day, she loves it.
- her love interest (and I've no memory of how they hooked up), is a bit of a rich playboy.
- after they shag each other silly, he promises that he's not just in it for the sex, so he will remain hands off until she initiates... which he fails at... And they end up getting caught on a path way to the beach - by his friends - just after he's jumped her and had his naughty way with her.
- he's all in for a permanent relationship from the start (yes I am noticing a them in my books here) while she is a liitle more reserved.
- in one of her wedding stories, she walks into the reception to see him on stage kissing one of the bridesmaids. She freaks and splits - think she hides in a ladies rental unit above the garage but little does she know, the ladies is friends with the main man and has a regular 'group', invitation only, dinner which they are of course both invited to... add the awkward moments here.
- oh, and there's some awkward things about her mum who the guy flies in (because what else would he do ). Now they are adults, she assures her she always loved them, just didn't know what to do with little kids.

Read it the last few years, probably on iBooks
Think it may be the first book in a series

Wow, this page runs really hot! Am bumping early... But promise to wait awhile for the next bump.

Bridesmaid Lotto

Don't remember the cover... That's the problem with virtual books, you don't see the cover as often as you would with a hard copy.

Am pretty sure it was iBooks (I don't like the format of kindle).
Read it.
It was probably a cheapy or possibly free.

Not sure on time frame. It was on my iPad, so sometime in the last 3-4 years.

Yeah, did read it. Was romance. The characters fell in love almost as soon as they met. Think she pretty much moved in with him...

For one of these girl meet rich guy books, she was very accepting and had no problem with him buying her a car, or the bigger car, or spending money on her at all. Most of the 'poor' girls struggle against it, or insist on it, but she accepted (in a nice way, not a money gubber) it and I guess would have returned it all if they broke up (?maybe?).

He had a brother and his wife/girlfriend. They either went away together or went out for the night and the brother hit a deer in front of them. Freaked him out that if he was in front in his small car, they could have beef killed if the deer came thru the windscreen... So he brought two 4wheel drives straight away, she accepted hers with out the fight he was expecting.

He lived in the old garden district... I think I remember living in the old converted stable... But it could just be that she parked in front of them.

Writing about the garden district makes me think she may have been being followed... But that bit may or may not just be a left over from reading Anne Rice.

Again, writing the above makes me think his parents are worried she's a money grubber.

Nalini Singh, Guild Hunter series

Angels' Blood

Sorry, deleted the extra one.

There is also a 'different' version of that one.

1. Kids escape from the lab and end up with a nice lady vet and they all go hide at a house by a lake or something... (view spoiler)[the two oldest, Max and Fang maybe, actually hook up and she delivers eggs at the end of the book (hide spoiler)]

2. Confused the hell out of me because I thought it was the next book in the series... Book 1 was not a series, but JP stole the basic plot - experimented bird kids running from evil etc, removed the adults from memory, and used that as the start of an actual series about the kids... spoiler is about how the series ends. (view spoiler)[the series ended up as a environmental save the world kick (hide spoiler)]

Trying to remember a booki read...

Was based New Orleans. Girl meets rich guy and they allbut marry immediately. On their way home from a trip, his brother hits a deer in his car in front, scaring the main man about how dangerous it was for he and the new lady to be driving around in a small sporty car... So he immediately buys new 4wd's for him and the new lasy.

... It's been driving me mad for the last week trying to remember the name because I can usually make the dots match easier!
