Thanks Susan! I've felt really slow with this one (mostly because I'm hoping to do three words).

I'm planing on spelling Amazon , Freebie and smashwords !!!!I have a K , I'll just throw it in there for now
A:Hired by the Cowboy by Donna Alward 5/8/12 ★★★★☆
An easy and fast to read.I think it was the first Harlequin romanceI've ever read that didn't make me roll my eyes all the time!!!
M: The Mating 7/8/12★★★★☆
At some point I was so nervous for the heroin that I couldn't keep reading.There were some stuff in Bonded that weren't in this one like the conversions that they had with their wolves.I cant wait to read the next.

N:Bonded by Nicky Charles 6/8/12★★★★★
I can't believe this was a free ebook (I got it from Smashwords )
I'm big fan of shifter and werewolf books and it was one of the best ones I've ever read.
F: The Finding 13/8/12 ★★★1/2
This one was heavy on suspense and lighter on romance,(a 3 out of 10 for the steam factor!). I like books with a lot of dialogues and this one was all about inner thoughts and descriptions .
R:Fearlessby Christine Rains 15/8/12 ★★★★★
It was only 41 pages but better than a full length book. The plot was unique and it was well written.
E:The Geek Job by Eve Langlais 13/8/12 ★★★★
It was funny in a crude way and HOT. The ending could have been better but the epilogue was great.
E:Exquisite by Ella Frank 15/8/12 ★★1/2
There were some conversations in it that was just unrealistic , the characters' actions and reactions weren't logical.
B

E
K:The Keeping 8/8/12★★★★★
What a great book ! This one was even better than bonded and the mating.The turns that the story took , not in a million years I could have predicted them.
S: Samson's Lovely Mortal 21/8/12 ★★★
It was funny , hot and steamy but it was just another vampire story , nothing new and it was predictable!If you haven't read a lot of vampire romances you'll enjoy this one!
M:Masters at Arms21/8/12 ★★★
An interesting way to start the series ,but I'm not sure if I'm going to read them or not!

R: Convincing Quinn Rock hard series 24/8/12 ★★★
It was HOT but too short ,I'd liked to read more and believe it or not it had a twist in its only 49 pages
D: Must love large dogs by Pat Dale 10/9/2010 ★★★1/2
A funny short story. It's told from a dog POV which is something new for me. There is doggy romance and some human romance
