Check out my review on Devil in Winter here. You'll get a kick out of it!

Autumn how did you like Kingdom of Dreams? It's my favorite JM historical.


and just finished



I also just bought

Elizabeth Hoyt usually writes great stuff, although her Legend of the Four Soldiers are not my personal favorites, I really liked the two you have (they're my two favorites in the series):-D
I also have The Hawk, but haven't read it yet:-D

I know! I settled on Play of Passion. I needed my PsyChangeling fix!


I have so many series to reread, seeing as so many books just came out! I have to reread the Night Huntress, Feral Warriors, last two books in the BDB, Simply Irresistible, and the Demonica series, lol.. Lots of good books, but it's going to take me a while, lol!


I also just bought



To Seduce A Sinner is a 5 star read for me!

Katherine, I had a pretty good idea of the book because I had read bits n pieces before. This was my last book of hers left fo me to read :( but it was a 5st as I thought it would be. She's the best!! I'm glad u like her too xxx


I really loved Scoundrel, and Warrior! So fun, like Saturday morning matinee adventures, or something. Very Indiana Jones. I got the ebook bundle of all four for $9.99, so yay, me.





I nearly finish reading Highlander Unbound by Julia London. Its quite good and the start of another series.










Starting




I finished Play of Passion which was really good and dnfed The Shack.
Now I'm reading Charmed, I'm Sure which I think I'll also dnf. I have a high tolerance for different type of heroes but I want them to have some balls and this one doesn't seem to have any.
I'm also listening to A Prisoner of Birth which is a modern version of The Count of Monte Cristo. Going really well!








that book is out in May! oh you must of have an advance copy!! lucky u!! ^_^ let us know how u like it!!




NICE! I have my reservations about this Smythe-Smith girls. When i read the Bridgerton series they were so dull.. the poor darlings LOL!! I have to see how JQ redeems them!

I thought the first was pretty good (4*), the second kind of bleh (3*), and the third great (5*):-) I loved GF's Ascension and Knight Miscellany series! I actually can't remember her Spice trilogy at all (except for the characters), so I definitely need to dig them out for a reread!

I got the first and second books from the library but I just couldn't get into them. I think I'll get the third from the library though especially as it's a 5* for you. I still regard the Knight Miscellany series as her best work. The Duke is one of my all time favourite books.

NIC..."
You mean the Smythe-Smith girls were dull? Cuz I certainly didn't think Colin Bridgerton was dull. :)


OMG! The Smythe-Smith girls are getting their own books? Now we'll know the truth behind those horrible musicales!!
I haven't felt like reading anything by Julia Quinn in a while...but I'll definitely read these ones.
And the cover is beautiful!


And now I must read the Bridgertons series again.

Melanie & Carol, I loved the Knight Miscellany series (well, not The Duke as much as the others); my favorite was Lord of Ice★★★★★. I really like The Pirate Prince and gave it ★★★★★ Also like Prince Charming ★★★★ - though I need to re-read it, as I've forgotten most of it. Guess I should batch a hole in there and read Princess: first!






Lol Mshj.. I actually don't pay that much attention to the writing, unless it's really blatantly terrible (which GF's isn't, IMO).. I much prefer to immerse myself in the story and characters, both of which Ms. Foley is a master of (again, this is my opinion:-p): I love feeling linked to main characters, and I didn't find that her writing detracted from my enjoyment of the plot..
Otherwise, I also need to get back to Marsha Canham. I've only read Through a Dark Mist but I loved it and have some other stuff by her, so I'll have to get back to her:-D

I have that book in my TBR! Maybe I should move it up and read it next week. :)

That's the beauty of GoodReads, Mshj! We all get to express (and rant) Our Opinions. :-) Pretty neat.
I've never read anything by Marsha Canham. I like pretty much anything; I think I'm willing to try it once, at least. I am tempted to get




The book has several battles at sea and they are so exciting! I was at the edge of my seat!
