What are you reading?
Carol - The book in my post above IS Love in the Afternoon
. See the love letters in the cover. :) Leo's book is Married By Morning with the white cover:
I've been on a steady diet of historicals and paranormals so I'm DYING to read a contemporary.
I just finished
and
. Now I'm reading

D.G - sorry ! I think I will have to get my glasses changed :)
LOL, Carol!I'm reading two books at once...one in Spanish and the other one in English. The one in English
is weird...don't know what to make of this book.
D.G. it looks like "the Sins of Lord Easterbrook" is the 4th in the series. Did you read the other books? If not maybe that is why it seems weird. Just a thought.
A great romp. I'm really pleased to have found Jo Beverley and Mary Jo Putney- good additions to my reading list. We went camping on Saturday and I had such a bad nights sleep that I finished
and
. I'd read part of both of them already so I took them to finish off. I'm saving
and
for my cycle trip to the Nehterlands next week.

."Katherine - recently read 'Three Nights with a Scoundrel' and it is definitely my favourite from the Stud Club series. Hope you enjoy it.
A Lady of Persuasion, Tessa Dare (my phone won't let me use the add/book thingie)
Carol I am enjoying it. Julian is quite the mystery man. Can't wait to find out all his secrets.Mandy how is Persuasion? I haven't looked up Tessa Dare's other books.
Katherine, it was the least favorite. I enjoyed the others and felt some connection with the characters but Bela really irritated me. It was good though and there were some humourous moments. A definite read to finish out the series.
Katherine wrote: "D.G. it looks like "the Sins of Lord Easterbrook" is the 4th in the series. Did you read the other books? If not maybe that is why it seems weird. Just a thought."Yes, I've read the other 3. The book is still weird, LOL!
Easterbrook has been a strange character from the beginning of the series so at least now I know the reason why. But it felt a bit disconnected because although there were some very small hints as to the cause of his excentricities in the behavior of his brothers, the explanation is a bit fantastic in a series that was just historical romance.
For example, imagine if during Love in the Afternoon we learned that Beatrix could speak to animals like Dr. Doolittle. It would have made that last book really weird when there were no hints in the other books that the series had fantastic elements. Something similar happened in this book.
D.G. I see what you mean. That would make the story seem very odd.

Carolyn, I'm really enjoying it. Waiting for Hardy to make a reappearance. Haven deserves some happiness!
I know! What she went through! Loved Hardy.

Yes she is. I love her historical novels but this is my first venture into the contemporary ones.

I'm working on Nora Roberts' In the Garden Trilogy. Finished Blue Dahlia a few days ago. Really enjoyed it. Would anyone want to read this series along with me?
Kate I have Blue DAhlia on my TBR list but probable won't get to it till October. Otherwise it would be fun to read it with you. Glad to hear you liked it.

Starting Summer at Tiffany today for my September challenge. I've been looking forward to reading this one since I'm a huge Audrey Hepburn fan and love anything vintage. The cover is just gorgeous with the Tiffany blue title and the building in the background. I'm also planning on re-reading Vision in White this weekend. :)
Just finished
... loved the series!Finally getting to LK's Capital Theatre series & enjoying it so far!
I'm now reading
. I'm reading a lot of series books because of a series challenge I'm hosting/participating on PBS. At least I've been able to advance a lot of series I'm reading. :p

Kate I really liked it. Very fast read and the story never gets boring. I'm anxious to get the rest of the series.

Katherine wrote: "Kate I really liked it. Very fast read and the story never gets boring. I'm anxious to get the rest of the series."Me too! I have about 10 pages to go and I'm hooked on this series. I'll have to pick up the next book soon. I already got book 3 from a library sale for 50 cents. A Duke of Her Own is a great book as is the rest of the series. When the Duke Returns is my favorite though.
I just noticed "A Duke of her own" is #6. Does this series need to be read in order?
Six is Leopold's book and he does feature in the others but more so in 5 than any of the other books. I would read 5 before 6 but that's as far back as you would need to go.
No problem. Hope you enjoy the series.
I'm continuing with Sookie so now I'm reading:

I really, really shouldn't be reading this- I have shedloads of work to do, I've got to get ready to go on holiday on Thursday and it's not even one of my spell September books! But I couldn't resist when I got home this evening and found it had arrived. I so enjoyed the first in the series (the second not quite so much).
I am reading It Happened One Autumn one of the Wallflower Series. I am confused -- who is St Vincent? Have we read about him in any other books?
Peg wrote: "I am reading It Happened One Autumn one of the Wallflower Series. I am confused -- who is St Vincent?

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..."
D.G. - the last book in the Hathaway series is Love in the Afternoon and so you have one more to go. You even get a little more of Leo ! This was my 2nd favourite in the series.
