Thanks For commenting on this book. I saw the cover and didn't even bother to read what it was about until I read your recommendation. The reviews on amazon are favorable as well. That is a terrible cover though! Why did someone think that was appealing? LOL! It sounds interesting though so I'm going to put it on my TBR list.

LOL! The cover is hideous. It's not attractive or even sligthly enticing. I enjoyed the story, though, and I hope you enjoy it too.

La Famiglia by Sienna Mynx

It's really good so far! ;-)"


Fashionista, I too finally finished La Famiglia by Sienna Mynx , and really enjoyed it also. I found myself loving and hating most of the characters at different times. Can't wait for the next installment.

The FountainPenDiva, Old school geek chick and lover of teddy bears (thefountainpendiva) | 1216 comments Doing a huge happy dance because I found an IR book that satisfies my black cosplay geek comic-loving asian male requirements The Cost To Play (Slivers of Love) by Oliva Gaines .

Never read this author but the premise rocks my world!


Savannah- Quad Motherin' Book Readin' Diva (quadmom2005) | 1549 comments Someone give me a good rec. Im doing the Nicky Charles series but its not IR so I need a fix lol. Decent but damned long winded on superfluous detail so I'm feenin for some good old fashioned IR obsessed alpha romance. Been coming across a string of 2 star IR books the last few months. Guess thats better than the Great DNF Drought of 2013 though.


message 111: by Andrea (new)

Andrea Jackson (paperbackdiva) | 335 comments Savannah, I hear ya. This authorYvette Hines always has some hot heroes and tells a good story. Try Apprehension by Yvette Hines or The Marriage Clause by Yvette Hines .

I just discovered Naima Simone and loved Secrets and Sins Malachim (A Secrets and Sins Novel #2) by Naima Simone .

I've read several of the sf/f by Evangeline Anderson. This is a single contemp The Man in the Black Leather Mask by Evangeline Anderson and this SF series that includes Claimed by Evangeline Anderson

Keitha (keitham) | 17 comments Tall, Dark & Alpha Boxed Set

Just picked this up. Features ten books with five IR books by Eve Vaughn, Afton Locke, Farrah Rochon, Koko Brown, Delaney Diamond.

I've only read one so far, Sex With an Ex by Eve Vaughn and it was dysfunctional family hella good.

Fashionista  (fashionista99) | 439 comments I have changed my mind. I just read a sample of Love through pain by Ancelli .

It sounds awesome and the reviews have been really great!

Channasl | 138 comments I just finished Leslie DuBois Natural Beauty by Leslie DuBois and I was leery at first but I really enjoyed this book. It had a good story line and it was actually encouraging to me. I highly recommend it.

Savannah- Quad Motherin' Book Readin' Diva (quadmom2005) | 1549 comments I've tried both A Heart Not Easily Broken and Jaded in the last 24 hours. Had to put both down due to the utter revulsion I felt when the female leads were introduced. Evidently, M.J. Kane is not an author I can deal with. DNF'd both, and put the reasons why in reviews.

I did finish and overall enjoy Love through pain. Gave it 3 stars because although its excellent in the IR genre, I'm no longer giving its-great-to-be-an-IR-book points. LOL that mess is over.

I'm about to go back to my Battaglia's with La Famiglia. They never disappoint me.

I really enjoyed this one too. I loved how the characters interacted with one another and then also with his family members. I also loved how the female lead didn't back down from her friends!


Elise-Pinterest+Goodreads=The Perfect Book Boyfriend (eliselovesshinyandnew) | 56 comments After a message from the author, I am reading An Involuntary Spark by V.C. Archerly . Sounds interesting. And it's a free loan with Amazon Prime, so why not!!-LOL

Anino  (anino) I just "1-clicked" A Wrong Turn Towards Love by Pepper Pace .. It looked interesting & it was only 99 cents...


Savannah- Quad Motherin' Book Readin' Diva (quadmom2005) | 1549 comments Just got my ARC of Rising Dark (The Darkling Trilogy, Book 2) by A.D. Koboah by the lovely A.D. Koboah this week, so I'm about to dive in. House is clean, kids are fed, company has all gone home..its about to be ON. lol Been looking forward to this for a long while it seems. Will update as I go.

Paganalexandria  | 4065 comments Just started Safe House (Steel Infidels Biker MC Romance) by Dez Burke . I'm totally into bikers, and happy that one of our authors is going there.


message 123: by Paganalexandria (new)

Paganalexandria  | 4065 comments Warning: Don't get sucked in by the hot cover Beautiful Prey by Phoenix Daniels . It's early, but this might make my worst read of 2014 list, not IR, period. I almost want to get Savannah to read this because her commentary would be great. This so bad, it's kind of good. Like Showgirls.

TinaNoir | 1458 comments Ha! I was interested in the cover for like a hot minute til I read the blurb. She an undercover cop on the stroll, yes? I would not be falling in love with a guy who met me when I was pretending to be a hooker. Just saying. Yeah,. we need to get Savannah on it!

Andrea is Secrets and Sins Malachim (A Secrets and Sins Novel) (Entangled Ignite) by Naima Simone an IR romance? It sounds good regardless, but I'm just curious.


message 126: by Paganalexandria (new)

Paganalexandria  | 4065 comments I finally finished my review of Beautiful Prey by Phoenix Daniels . I felt it had to be done as a public service announcement:

Hmm, good question. lol! The first in the series had a WM/FilipinoW. It was so good, I immediately put the next on my w-t-r list. But now looking at reviews and descriptions, I can't tell either. I've even got the ebook sample. It's going to be explosive but I couldn't tell races.

If anyone knows, tell the group here please. I'm reading it sometime anyway.

Hey girl! Well I am just at about the 30% mark, but hoping some of this stuff will come into play with the resolution. So here are the things that have me scratching my head:

1. What's up with this random asides dealing with her race? It feels like the writer is making a point to distinguish her from "the normal types of blacks" or something.

2. I do not get the relationship with the ex at all. I understand forgiving, but don't understand being joined at the hip with the ex; especially, when you consider the circumstances that made him an ex.

3. Now I am at the point where she is taking pictures of a child, and it's so random and WTF.

In short, I am having a hard time connecting to this heroine because we wouldn't get along. There is something so unintentionally weak sauce about her, IMO.

Hello! You know, It's terrible but I can't even remember the heroine. I remember Alex though. I do remember that I wish I had read his other story before this one because then maybe I would have liked it more because I would have understood more? IDK. Ah, now I remember the ex, (that sucked for her, and for her to even fall for Alex in the first place?) SMH-I remember now. Yes, yes strange woman. :) You're right, she was weird. The book becomes even more strange as far as what is she thinking when some characters from the previous book come into play.

You weren't the only one confused by the heroine (and I use the term with great reservation):

Okay PDiva, I had to finish before commenting (hadn't gotten to that couple yet). This book was just a fail on a lot levels. It's going to be hard writing a review for it, you did a really job of putting all the issues together.

I read this several years back and it just didn't really work for me. A lot of people like it though.

Well I'm vested, but I want to see how it is all pulled together. The paranormal aspect is where I'm trying to grapple with the story.

Ren | 291 comments Replying in here instead: :)

I'm currently reading Secrets (Free Falling Series, #2) by Raven St. Pierre (second book in the Free Falling series) and it is ssssooooo good! I couldn't stop reading it yesterday. Well balanced book that i am enjoying.

However, the heroine Sam is ssssooo stupid! Overall she is a good heroine but sometimes she does the dumbest things in reaction to a difficult situation. I'm reading the book and telling her "nnnnnnnnnoooo don't"
