message 101: by Anne (new)

Anne Sugar Daddy and Again The Magic are both waiting for me at the library...which one do I read first?!


message 102: by Bekah, Fellow Kleypasaholic (new)

Bekah (bekah317) | 2750 comments Sugar Daddy! :-)


message 103: by Bekah, Fellow Kleypasaholic (new)

Bekah (bekah317) | 2750 comments Again the Magic! :-)

Clearly I'm no help. They'll both most likely make you cry.


message 104: by UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant (new)

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Again the magic!!!! I haven't read Sugar Daddy yet. It's book 1 in the contemporary series and Again the Magic is the prequel to her historical Wallflowers series.

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Read Sugar Daddy next week, so we can read it at the same time, Anne. :)


message 106: by Anne (new)

Anne Ok, Danielle! Sounds like a plan...it also helps me decide what to read next. LOL

Bekah, you're right. You are no help! LOL Thanks for trying, though.

UM, I didn't realize Again the Magic was a prequel to the Wallflowers! *squeal*

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Cool!


message 108: by Robyn (new)

Robyn (bamamom) | 37 comments I just finished Three Weddings and a Kiss and really loved it. The story by Lisa Kleypas was wonderful, Derek Craven was in the story so now I need to find his story and read it.


message 109: by [deleted user] (new)

I just started to re-read Secrets of a Summer Night...after all the Wallflowers talk, I had to start them over!

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Simon! Sigh. I just had to say that. :)


message 111: by Alycia (new)

Alycia | 1478 comments I just finished It Happened One Autumn. I loved this one as well. Oh, Westcliff *sigh*
I liked St. Vincent, can't believe the kidnapping part. I mean I can but I didn't think he would resort to that. Oh, I absolutely loved the cliffhanger at the end of the book with Evie. I can only imagine how that will transpire!


message 112: by Danielle The Book Huntress , Certifiable St. Vinnie's Ninny (new)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Alycia, hang on to something when you read Devil in Winter. St. Vincent is so hot!

ROFLMAO! Ok, Danielle. I will heed your advice. I like him even though I don't know much about him. I didn't like the kidnapping, but I understood why he did it. And I can't wait to see how Evie is transformed!... looking forward to hot St. Vincent scenes!!! :)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Definitely, Ally. :)


message 117: by [deleted user] (new)

Simon is one of my favorite heros! I forgot how much I loved him until I stared reading this again! Love he fact that he's just aguy, not a duke or an earl. just a red-blooded male!


message 118: by Anne (new)

Anne Alright, ladies. Listen to this. I recommended Devil in Winter to one of my girlfriends the other day. After she read it she actually had the nerve to tell me that it was only so-so! I was floored! I'm actually considering ending the friendship. LOL


message 119: by Bekah, Fellow Kleypasaholic (new)

Bekah (bekah317) | 2750 comments lol, I've had to contemplate friendships for similar reasons...don't feel bad. I mean these are important matters in life. :-)


message 120: by Anne (new)

Anne Exactly, Bekah! I'm beginning to wonder what I ever saw in her anyway. LOL

Did she read the same book we all have read? Does she show signs of fever?


message 125: by Holly (new)

Holly (velvetsun) | 144 comments Well, after reading 8 LK books in a row I decided to take a break and read Lara Adrian's Ashes Of Midnight. I enjoyed it, but the last 100 pages or so seemed to drag for me.

Now, I'm trying to decide if i should read something else by LK or if i should start a Colleen Gleason book.

I think she may have been expecting it to be racier?


message 127: by Danielle The Book Huntress , Certifiable St. Vinnie's Ninny (new)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments DIW could have had more love scenes, but maybe she was trying to show a more emotional aspect to St. Vincent. We knew he was a rake who was 'good in bed.' I think she wanted to show the other, under-expressed aspects of his character. Just my thoughts, anyway.


message 128: by Alycia (new)

Alycia | 1478 comments I agree with you Danielle. That is a great way to put it... trying to show a more emotional aspect to St. Vincent.


message 129: by Danielle The Book Huntress , Certifiable St. Vinnie's Ninny (new)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Thanks, Alycia. I could talk about St. Vincent all day. :)

I'll join you in that conversation once I finished DIW. I am almost done! I think this one is my fav. Wallflower book so far.

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Cool!


message 132: by Alycia (new)

Alycia | 1478 comments I just finished it Danielle! I love St. Vincent even more! I think I love each new hero in the Wallflower series more than the last one. I just hope he makes appearances in other books!


message 133: by Danielle The Book Huntress , Certifiable St. Vinnie's Ninny (new)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Never fear. St. Vincent continues to turn up. Some readers don't get the St. Vincent appeal. For me, he's just the man!

I am so glad to hear that! I knew he couldn't be a heartless rake.

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments I'm reading Knight of Desire right now. It's pretty good. Love the cover!

message 136: by Anne (new)

Anne I just finished Again The Magic. I was kind of disappointed. I wish it had been more about Livia and Gideon, and less about Aline and McKenna. It was still a decent book, though.

Many people say that. It would have been nice to see their relationship more fully develop, but I was pleased with what we got in Again The Magic . It was actually my favorite Wallflower book because of the honesty of McKenna's reaction to finding out why Aline was keeping them apart. I sobbed while reading this book.


message 138: by Holly (new)

Holly (velvetsun) | 144 comments I just read a book Joss Ware, and a novella by Nalini Singh...both were VERY disappointing. I think i need to read another LK book. :)


message 139: by Danielle The Book Huntress , Certifiable St. Vinnie's Ninny (new)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments I actually wanted more McKenna/Aline and less Gideon/Olivia. I wish she had written a separate novella for G/O.


message 140: by Danielle The Book Huntress , Certifiable St. Vinnie's Ninny (new)

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments Holly, I hope you like you next book more.

Our taste always seem to differ on these things! Tsk. Oh well, you still have great taste in books!

I can see why you loved Mckenna's reaction to Aline's reason for not telling him how she felt.


Cyn Mistress Kitty (beachlover) I just finished Proof by Seduction by Courtney Milan. WOW, I loved this book. It had some funny scenes that reminded me of Julia Quinn's writing. CM is a new author and I love her style. Even though there are some funny scenes, this book is powerful and shows the depth of all the characters not glossing over their flaws but instead showing you why they are as they are. The hero is really damaged and I liked that he didn't change as soon as he met the heroine like so many books do.
I sobbed when I read the last few chapters.
This author is one to watch.

UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish | 8001 comments Cynthia,

Yes, I loved it too! Trial By Desire is supposed to come out in... October, I think. Courtney Milan stopped by my review/comments and answered a couple questions we had.

message 145: by Shel (new)

Shel Danielle,
I completely agree, wish the book had been solely about Aline/McKenna and then another book with Gideon/Olivia. I think ATM was too good of a book to put in a whole other love story, just my opinion.

That's okay, Anne. We aren't always going to think the same way about things. The world would be so boring! I'm glad we met and became friends!

I think McKenna and Aline had more to their story than was revealed. It felt incomplete. It was a great book, but I needed more.


message 148: by Shel (new)

Shel I know, I know. LOL, right there with ya! I sobbed through it and re-read it once a year just to torment myself and feel all good at the end. Am I crazy or just addicted to angst and happily ever after?

 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) | 3737 comments You're not alone. I love intense books.


message 150: by Kelly (new)

Kelly  | 213 comments I am reading Then Came You. I was up until 3:00 last night reading. I have had a run of good books and it is killing to many late nights.

I love Lily and Alex.
