I have five books downloading tomorrow--by Julie Ann Long, Cecilia Grant, Susan mallery Jill shalvis and Robyn Carr. I expect to read them all as I nurse my mom through knee replacement surgery....,

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.)


BTW I am itching to start "The Woman Upstairs"!!!
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?

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


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.
I'm starting this week with the Monday puzzler I'm planning on posting as well as- Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo.
