I finished
by Susan Mallery, 3*. Definately not the best book in the Fool's Gold series, although I'm hopeful for the next one
, because I liked the heroine, Felicia.
I finished
last Sept 12 and I had fun reading it. Eric's antics had me laughing and panting throughout the book. Will have to read Trey's book soon. 5 stars.
Random Book List #148I read The Tao of Martha: My Year of LIVING; Or, Why I'm Never Getting All That Glitter Off of the Dog by Jen Lancaster and it was hysterical!! I laughed so hard listening to this I had tears running down my face. I was at work, but it was during lunch so no one was around to see me! 5 STARS!
I read
and finished on September 21, 2013. It was only okay. I had read all of the five star reviews and got sucked in, but it didn't really hold my attention. Maybe the taboo of 18 year old student and teacher wasn't taboo enough for me. ★ ★ ★

Love In Between by Sandi Lynn
I read
for
by Tessa Dare. The first part was interesting but I ended up disliking the hero, so 2.5*.
Finished reading
@ 04.Oct. 4 starsA fun historical romance that does not try to have elements of suspense or paranormal (thank God). It's a sweet love story where hero and heroine have a clash of wills and wits and there is his meddling mother to add more fun.
If I had to complain about something it's that development of emotions progressed too quickly for my taste.

I'm in for:
Bare it All - Lori Foster
- COMPLETED - 4.5*
Random Book List #153I finished reading Once Upon a Winter's Eve by Tessa Dare and it was a very quick read. I liked it the continuation of the characters from the first book and I really liked the story. I will definately be picking up the next book in the series!
Finished
for
★★★★I like the characters and story but I didn't like that small episode of accident that happened to the heroine as it seems too cliched.
Random Book List #153I've already read all of Tessa Dare's Spindle Cove series. It was great. Hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did.
Currently reading
for Mary Balogh's

We talked about it when I read Attachments for some previous list. In fact I picked 'Fangirl' now because you said you liked it more than E&P. :)

Yes, now I remember! Fangirl is more uplifting, E&P heavier. It's really which you prefer. As a parent, I had a hard time with some of the things Eleanor had to deal with at home, and it made it hard for me to enjoy the rest of the book.

and I gave it 5 stars. It was just as funny as the first one! It had lots of potty mouth raunchy humor and it was very hard to not laugh out loud while listening to it at work :)
I also read
for this list, and although it had some major funny moments, I didn't like it as much as the first book. 3 stars.
