I just finished Lover Eternal, #2 in J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood. Whew! Those guys are great, and I love the taming the beast theme in this one. On to #3 after I read some library books.
Just finished

John is a sexy good bad boy.
I just read Sherrilyn Kenyon's second League novel,
. I was disappointed in the quality, but still recommend it (more details in my review http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...).
What was it about the quality that disappointed you, Mollie? Was it the writing itself? If so, remember that this was only her 2nd book she'd ever written and all authors improve over time. Kind of like a fine wine. LOL

LOL"Yes, but in the 2009 preface she mentioned that she'd re-written it. I found that the ending was out of character for the hero. You can read my review for more details (I wish I knew how to put a link to that review here). I still plan to read the entire series, I own the 3rd one and await the release of the 4th.
To place a link for your review, I do it this way so it goes directly to the review...1. Click on My Books on your home page.
2. Then, when that page comes up, in the little box that says "search my books" type in the name of the book.
3. Then, when that page comes up, click on VIEW, not edit.
4. When the review comes up, copy the address from the address window box at the top of the page.
5. And then once you have it copied you can paste it into the comment box.

Isn't that tricky?? LOL Now you and the readers always know exactly what they're linking to.
Currently reading
by Julie Garwood, and am head over heels for Theo! Although Noah is also waaay hot !!!:-)
I still haven't brought myself to read her contemps, even though I have the first 3 here.
They're quite worth it:-) I'm a little prejudiced towards her historicals, because I love the medieval time period, but I love her Buchanans! I actually liked Mercy more than Heartbreaker:-) Try them though:-) especially if you have the first ones!
How many are there now, Melanie?
Buchanans? I think about 7 or 8? I'm only done with the first two though:-)
Wow, that's a lot of books. I'll have to give them a shot.
Lol.. I love it when a fave author writes a lot of books for me to hoard and read:-)
Mod
Noah was a bad priest in Heartbreaker.
I just picked up
so I spent today re-skimming the first 3 books to bring myself up to speed. (books 4 and 5 tomorrow!)I would highly recommend re-skimming to everyone -- skip all parts related to lessors, baby powder and whatever bar the boys are hanging out in. Also skip any reference to recruits, John Matthew and workouts. You are left with, uhm, sex. Woohoo!
Lol.. still on my Garwood binge! Just finished
, and John Paul was such a sexy bear:-)) It's 5am though now, so I'm going to try to catch 4 hrs of sleep, lol...
I just re-read Savor the Moment by Nora Roberts. I again found it delightful.
Since dhestiny's instructions work, this will take you to my review:

Thanks, Tammy. I read book 2 for the first time this week, so I'll keep your instructions in mind as I go through the series. Love it so far!
Lol.. Done with
:-) It's a Garwood, and that says it all:-)
Next up for me is a run on the Bullet Catcher series. 
Oh, Darcy!!!! I really need to read those. I have them all here but I've not gotten to them yet. I'd love to know what you think of them.
UniquelyMoi *~*Dhestiny*~* wrote: "Oh, Darcy!!!! I really need to read those. I have them all here but I've not gotten to them yet.

I am waiting for Lucy, the boss, to fall for a guy, as she gives them all crap and I would love to see her get hers. lol
Ahhhh, kind of like Jonas Wyatt, hey?

I do read that series, but it didn't click. Not as good as that book or series. More like a tamer version of Pamela Clare.
Currently reading To Mother With Love which has stories by Linda Howard, Robyn Carr, and Cheryl Reavis. I've read The Way Home by Howard many times, I bought this to get my hands on the Robyn Carr story.Darcy, Jonas Wyatt of the Breed series from Lora Leigh got his comeuppance recently in Lion's Heat.
Lion's Heat was one of my favorites, but for some reason just seeing his name didn't click in my heat.
Darcy wrote: "Lion's Heat was one of my favorites..."I have to be honest and say I liked the early books in the series, released through Ellora's Cave, better than the later, tamer ones.
Mollie, I am torn, the older ones definitely fit in my category of a "naughty" book, but in the newer ones I like the whole breed politics and conspiracy that has been going on.
I like the entire series, honestly. There are some things that I find repetitive, but in general I do love the series overall.
UniquelyMoi *~*Dhestiny*~* wrote: "I like the entire series, honestly. There are some things that I find repetitive, but in general I do love the series overall."It is one of my favorites too! I love the names that the breeds come up with for themselves. Sometimes I laugh when a new one is introduced.
Oh, and I LOVE that they named themselves!!! Law? Rule? Ha!
I also find the names that they chose for themselves fascinating. I read a lot of "naughty" books, the spiciness helps keep this old broad awake.Last week I re-read a lot of the breed books that have the Wolves and Coyotes as protagonists or a main part of the plot. Anya is a fascinating character. The cat breed stories are fine, but my favorites are the canines, from Elizabeth's Wolf to Faith, Hope, and Charity's stories. It might be because I prefer to have dogs for pets (LOL). The one in the Xmas collection this past winter was all right, also.
Three cheers for Lora Leigh ... I can hardly wait until she decides Cassie is old enough to have a love story of her own.
I just finished To Mother With Love, by Linda Howard, Robyn Carr, and Cheryl Reavis, and enjoyed it a lot. Here’s a link to my review.Mollie's Review of To Mother With Love
I'm not sure what I'll read next, but I am taking a breather from paranormal stories so I'll have to finish up my "Dangerous" challenge later.
My favorite is Dawn's Awakening. I don't know why, but there's something about Seth that screams perfection.Anya is amazing, actually. But how she put up with DelRay is beyond me. What an ass he was. And Dash Sinclair... the letters from Cassie in the beginning had me sighing all the time!

I have recently read Julia Templeton's latest "Sinjin" and "Victor" ( The Rakehells of Rochester series) and really enjoyed them. There will be another book, Rory's story.
