Heidi, Nothing but Trouble was hilarious, I just loved the way Chelsea and Mark interacted...and how grouchy he was throughout the book!

[Amar]

I'm re-reading Elizabeth Hoyt's , the last installment in the Four Soldier series...forgot how much I liked this book.

[Bekah, Fellow Kleypasaholic]

I love that book Amar!!!!

[Autumn]

Goodness i have never tried Elizabeth Hoyt orChristina Dodd and i love Historicals.. aint that crazy???? any good ones i should give this ladies a try??

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

I loved the Princes Trilogy by Elizabeth Hoyt.

and a short story about a secondary character,

[Autumn]

oh i should definitely give them a try!! thanks Dhes!! :)

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

I hope you enjoy them, Autumn! I have the Legend of the Four Soldiers here, but haven't read them yet.

[D.G.]

Hey seton!

How is the new series by Madeline Hunter, the one with the flowers? My library has the first two books in audiobooks so I want to give them a try.

I don't know if I've read any Jo Goodman...maybe I should give a her a try.

[Amar]

Whoops, I meant To Desire a Devil...the whole Four Doldiers series is
excellent!!!

[seton]

Hey DG!
I thought the Rarest Blooms series was comparable in quality to the Rothwell series. Both Bk 3s feature a less than rich hero.

Good luck on Goodman.

[Amar]

Autumn, i loooooove Elizabeth Hoyt and would really recommend anything by her.

ohh i will be bumping her up in my list ASAP! ;) XXXXXX

[Heidi]

I just ahve to add my two cents here Elizabeth hoyt is right up there with LK in my opinion! ONE OF THE BEST for sure!

[Carol Cork *Young at Heart Oldie*]

I definitely agree with you Heidi about Elizabeth Hoyt. I have 'Wicked Intentions' and 'Notorious Pleasures' in my TBR pile and am looking forward to reading them

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

I've loved EH's books that I've read so far. She's consistent in quality, and I appreciate that. No guessing, so far.

[Mandy]

Got on a Lynn Veihl kick this month. Finished the Darkyn series. Aftet this one, I'm on to the Marjorie M. Liu series.

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

I just saw that, Mandy! I loved Darkyn!

[Amar]

Ditto Heidi re: EH, I think her and LK are both excellent writers but still know how to keep it super steamy!

Oh... my three cents: EH is a great author! I loved her Princes, liked her Four Soldiers, and love her Maiden Lane books (so far!!)

And Christina Dodd also has a couple great books (It's been a while, but I think I really enjoyed her Governess Brides and her Switching Places books).. Oh, and of course there's Celeste Bradley and Liz Carlyle who are also great:-D Oh, and Kresley Cole... I'm waiting to start If you desire after reading and LOVING If you dare!! Currently reading a RS book by Karen Rose though..

[Heidi]

Melanie, I had a couple Christina Dodd books and for the life of me could not read the, started and could never get into them enough to finsih, they just didn;t grab be from the get go!

[seton]

Hoyt: love, LOVED her Prince series. Four Soldiers didnt compare. Refuse to read her current series cause the stews dont interest me.

Dodd: read a few bks. Stopped reading her altogether when she put out 7 bks in one yr and all she seemed to care about was cranking them out.

Celeste Bradley: I dont like spy regencies but when she started writing regular regencies, they lost that something.

Carlyle: talented but frustrating writer for me. Her earliest bks are her best.

I'm the opposite. The Four Soldiers were better for me than the Princes. I really didn't like that last prince book, but I also wasn't overly fond of the last soldier book either.

Totally agree on the cranking them out comment. That really bothers me about some authors. I know that there are some authors I just want more and more and more from but really quality over quantity counts for much!

[Autumn]

ohh my God!!! and i have missed her books!!!!! thats a crime as far as romance reading goes!! jeezz!!! i definitely have to read her books asap!!

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

I received from RomCon Reader's Crown but I'd never read anything by her before. Book 3, SIMD is closely tied to the first 2 in the series so I got them first. I really enjoyed all 3 books, even though book 1 was only 3 stars.

I'm glad to have found a new HR author.

[Lisa Kay]

I've only read , but WOW! It was great. I wish I could give it more than five stars. I have her next books lined up. I guess Elizabeth Hoyt is going to have to hold me over until Lisa Kleypas's year off is over with.

I just finished it, Julie, and it was wonderful!! I adore Houston and even Dallas for understanding.

Hoyt- yep, agree The Leopard Prince was wonderful- no idea what happened in the 4 soldiers and not inclined to try Maiden Lane
Dodd- never tried- been meaning to- maybe not though!
Bradley- never tried- will investigate
Carlyle- yes- highly recommended in some ways but totally lacking direction in others. Avoid her latest book- it's a rehash of previous books/characters with some sort of added paranormal bit that really doesn't work.

[Melanie]

@Mshj - what was Carlyle's latest book?

I agree that Dodd was putting out a few too many... I did like the first 5 or so in the Governess Brides (between 3 and 4.5*), and her CR books were good IMO, although I didn't hook on the PNR (too many directions in too short a time):-D

BTW, I also really enjoyed a couple of Samantha James' books... I don't know if you've read any?
and her Perfect trilogy? I actually have her backlist but still need to dig it out of my gargantuan TBR pile:-D

[Mandy]

UniquelyMoi *~*Dhestiny*~* wrote: "I just saw that, Mandy! I loved Darkyn!"

did you read the kyndred ones? I finished the first one last night. I saw some pretty bad reviews of it, even one that mentioned some Dom/sub lifestyle. I think that reviewer was confused! Lol! There was only one such scene and nothing that indicated a desire for that lifestyle.

glad I didn't skip bc of that review.

I didn't like it either. I ended up skimming it.

One Touch of Scandal

Never heard of Samantha James- will investigate.

[Jennifer]

I am reading Swept Away- it was a Kindle freebie, and it is surprisingly really good! Has anyone read anything else by her?

she is fab. nobody does swashbuckling HRs like her.

SJ is as big a hack as Dodd. Maybe worse.

A number of us have read this one and loved it:

It definitely buckeled my swashes. I like it when the girl gets to be a pirate instead of a victim!

[UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish, Your Humble Servant]

Mandy, I haven't read Kyndred yet. I own the first 1 though.

really? I've only read three or four of her books, like I said, but I found them enjoyable... Not LK material, but 3.5-4.5* IMO..

[Carolyn F.]

Just finished Candle in the Storm - blah!

Glad to hear it, Dhestiny. Houston was a sweetheart. I just loved him. Even though Dallas was my least favorite of the brothers, I still really enjoyed his book. The whole series is a keeper for me.:-)

I can imagine. I'm giving Dallas real kudos for what he did.
