Yesterday I started and finished My Fair Captain. So good. This series, there are two books so far, takes place in the distant future on two planets that, while equipped with all of the modern conveniences of the future, embrace the dress and customs of regency era England. So it's Scifi, futuristic, regency historical romance. So good.

Yesterday I read The Prince and the Single Mom which was a sweet romantic romp about a woman and her daughter who is a single mom. Hannah believes in fairy godmothers but doesn't have a clue when she wins an all expense paid trip to an exclusive resort in the Mediterranean that HER fairy godmother was responsible. She takes her daughter and 6 year old grandson with her and both women meet and fall in love with the men they were destined for. While this book is tagged as erotica, it really isn't. The sex is not anything more than what you'd read in Kresley Cole's books.
