I hope you read the steamy parts to her aloud; that way you can both laugh! (I find that steamy excepts, read aloud out of context, can be unintentionally funny.)

Phoenix77 | 346 comments I'm glomming Jade Lee's Bridal Favors books starting with the second Wedded in Sin. I'm absolutely in love with the quirky hero Samuel Morrison.

I totally agree Susan but not my moms cup of tea.
Is anyone else getting notice from Barnes and Noble that preordered books are now available months after they were actually released?

Susan (shaydock) | 727 comments I am reading The Proposal by Mary Balogh, interesting hero and heroine. Finished Dan' Brown's The Inferno and Clive Cussler's new book last week. It was time to dip back into my favorites.

Phoenix77 | 346 comments Yes Dls, I'm getting those emails too. Just received one said Lover @ Last was ready to download! Huh? I read that one and picked it apart on release day.

Irisheyes | 896 comments In the middle WILLOWLEAF LANE by RaeAnne Thayne. I just love Hope's Crossing and am excited to get another chance to visit.

Finished Robyn Carr's THE NEWCOMER earlier in the week. I really liked it, but I'm wondering if a newcomer to her books will. The back blurb is kind of deceiving. You think the book is going to be primarily about Mac & Gina and their romance but it's more a compilation of several stories including all the drama their teens are facing. I'm really looking forward to the next one in the series - THE HERO.

I also read THE FIREFLY CAFE by Lily Everett. I know there is a new trend to release novellas before major novels. Sometimes they work for me and other times they don't. Lily Everett did a great job of packing a good story into a short story. I look forward to others in her series.

Irish eyes I completely agree about the newcomer. I really liked it but it wasn't about Mac and Gina


message 12: by Irisheyes (new)

Irisheyes | 896 comments Yeah, DLS, I loved it, but after I was done I thought wow this was kind of misleading. I think she should have kept them getting together for this book instead of having them get together in the last book. I really, really loved the Ashley/Downey storyline, though. It was well done. I have 2 teens and that sort of drama is happening more than you'd know!

Kym | 206 comments Just finished all 4 Tana French novels on audio. Giving a re-listen to The Madness of Lord Ian MacKenzie by Jennifer Ashley. Just purchased The Taming of Ryder Cavenaugh by Stephanie Laurens.
Also purchased Wallflower by Catherine Gayle. I've never read anything by her. Can anyone tell me about her?

I just finished Cecilia Grant's new book A Woman Entangled. I loved it. I wasn't bothered by Kate's longing to get back into upper crust society in part because she also saw it as a way to reunite her father with his family and protect her sister . I admire her writing but couldn't finish her last book because it was so grim--I will try it again . I also read Williowleaf lane and liked many things about it but found the hero's silence about who was the real drug dealer completely implausible especially given that his daughter believed it was him.
