Robin - this is the website:

There are 16 free downloads, I think.



I got this one too Carol, how's it turning out for you?

Highlander Obsession by Dawn Halliday - This is a well-written book but it did not leave me with a good feeling. I'm sure if I'll read Highland Surrender.
Laird of the Mist by Paula Quinn - I really enjoyed this one and am continuing with A Highlander Never Surrenders, then Seduced by & Ravished by a Highlander
Highland Destiny by Hannah Howell - I have a lot of the Murray family books to read in between other books
I'm obsessed with Highlanders at the moment!

I hated Highland Obsession. There was way too much intentional emotional hurt and I agree, I did not feel good when it was over. Is Highland Surrender a sequel?

Bekah - I imagine this storyline has probably been done a thousand times but, as I do not read many contemporary novels, I am really enjoying this book.

Yes, Cam selects a proper lady to be his wife, but then he falls in love with someone else. His selected bride falls for someone else too. I don't have much empathy for Cam after he abducted Sorcha. I hated Alan when he had his "test" for his wife and friend.




There was just so, so much unnecessary heartache. It sounds like the next book will be more of the same.

Have you read anything by Jennifer Haymore (real name of Dawn Halliday) such as A Touch of Scandal or A Hint of Wicked? I was curious about these Regency romances.


I liked this one."
I did too. One of the better ones.


I enjoyed the read but never really warmed to him. He always seemed to me to be a very cold character.


How have I not found Patricia Rice before now?? I picked this one up in one of my 8/$1 deals.



The same with me, Mshj. I liked the book but I wasn't as crazy about St. Vincent as most people.


Strip billiards? Skinny dipping with penguins? Sounds like something I need to check out! LOL!!
I love St. Vincent.


It's $.99 at Kobo.com today.


Yikes! I read that book and don't remember that!

I'm trying not to allow the hype around Sebastian to influence me, but I'm having a hard time being patient. I love how he treated Evie on the trip to Scotland as well as during the wedding and after, but then it seemed like the honeymoon was instantly over. In spite of Sebastian's moments of niceness, I can't forget what he did to Lillian, and am eagerly waiting for a comeuppance, a tortured past to emerge, something??? I guess I just need to stop being so darned impatient, especially since it took the better part of the first two books before I fully warmed to Annabelle and Lillian, so maybe he'll wow me later on.:-)


I enjoyed it. My three roommates and I read it, passing a copy around. We all loved the first 3 in the series.


D.G. - don't you just love Leo! This was my favourite Hathaway book.

I just finished the book and I'm sad this the last one. LK did an amazing job with this family!
Now moving onto La Sombra Del Viento. I've been reading non stop romance for a while so a different sort of book (and in Spanish!) would be a welcome change of pace.
