John Garrett is a cynical multi-millionaire who is rarely denied anything he
wants, until the day he meets Sarah McAlister. Sarah's been hurt in the past
and everything about the brooding rancher sends her defenses on high alert. She
tries her best to stay out of his path, but his relentless pursuit makes him
all but impossible to resist.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
If I had to describe this book in one word it would be melt-your-pantilicious.
Oh my. Complete Alpha male. The only thing that melts Sarah is him and his
dominant nature. I loved all the conflict and what it took for them to admit to
each other they were in love. I can’t wait for Jaime and her boss’ book. Please
Lynda. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

Recognizing his ruthless intensity for what it is, she doesn't correct him when he assumes she is an eighteen-year-old freshman.<br /> <br /> Raul Vega has never met a woman he couldn't do without. Until he meets Elaina Ruiz and knows she has to belong to him--even if it means waiting for her to grow up.<br /> <br /> <strong>Review</strong><br /> Steamy hot read. Talk about chemistry. These two could cut the sexual tension with a knife. I really liked this book. I loved how intense Raul was. That is one hot as hell Alpha hero. And Elaina didn’t take his shit for long. She eventually demanded what she needed and he gave her that. I love how we got a glimpse of their life 5 years later too. I bet it is nonstop action at that house. <br /> <br /> If you are looking for a short, steamy-as-hell read, look no further. Lynda pulled it off with this book. <br /><br /> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixINhcVegyW_dTKGokTwHIQ1CAJtecY4H1Lth4yZM3KuGEjEfQE0JvgaWr1K64yT1rBKSpBRoRB8pbrmfRoDiWEcH57u5zNQwp7LZWqnm649vLBNfy2ZudcHm8l_BctFlCjapyzpRSycE0/s1600/5hearts.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixINhcVegyW_dTKGokTwHIQ1CAJtecY4H1Lth4yZM3KuGEjEfQE0JvgaWr1K64yT1rBKSpBRoRB8pbrmfRoDiWEcH57u5zNQwp7LZWqnm649vLBNfy2ZudcHm8l_BctFlCjapyzpRSycE0/s1600/5hearts.jpg" /></a></div>

The award-winning author of The Beaumont Series brings readers a delightfully
short story that will kick off the Sheraton Beach Brief.<br />
<br />
Shannon Shaw’s grandmother is coming for a visit so she better get her fiancé
back in a hurry. Otherwise the feisty old lady will never allow her only
grandchild to live alone in Sheraton Beach. Shannon begs her cheating ex-fiancé
Laz Lewis<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
I really liked the story. I did have a problem with it though. If I am engaged
to a cop, been with him for three years, I’m pretty sure I would know what his
partner looked like. To me it sounded as if they didn’t involve each other in their
lives other than when they were together. Other than that I think it’s a good
story. I wish there would’ve been more background, like maybe why Shannon is so
insecure. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b>Summary</b><br /> Thanks to fate, Jordan Mitchell-Ryan’s heart is tattered. Having kept her from the man she thought she’d always marry, the same fickle fate took away the man she eventually did. Thrown back into the path of her fist love, she finds hers is not the only heart fate has damaged. Widower and software CEO, Cole McCall fills his days with computer codes and working the family ranch. When his visiting former neighbor sets out to delete the firewall around his heart, he discovers there’s no protection against the Jordan virus. Though she understands his pain and reawakens his soul, will it be enough for Cole to overcome his past and embrace their fated hearts? <br /><br /><b>Review</b><br /> Emotional, heart gripping tale of the journey for true love. Wow, this book made me laugh and cry and want to punch the hero in his balls. Jordan is a lot stronger than me. i don't think I could've put up with Cole's treatment of her. It all makes sense though. She knows what he's going thru seeing as how she went thru it at the same time as him. This was a story of true emotions and the way real people would work thru them. It touched me in so many ways. I can't wait to see what happens with Connor and Kerri. When is this book coming out Donna?????<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A short novel of the Shifters Unbound series. Spike, a wildcat Shifter and the
champion fighter of Shiftertown, is stunned when Myka, the best friend of a
dying human woman, announces that Spike has fathered a cub. What's more, the
mother is giving the boy to Spike to protect and raise. <br />
<br />
Myka, who'd been raised by an abusive stepfather, is not sure that a wild
fighter named Spike is the best man to bring up the cute little jaguar cub. She
goes to Shiftertown to check out Spike, and finds that the man behind the name
is a lonely Shifter who's lost most of his family and is a fierce caretaker to
those he has left. <br />
<br />
Spike is torn between the cub and his duties as tracker to the Shiftertown
leader, and begs Myka, the only person who understands, to help him. He starts
to like the sassy Myka, a horse trainer who's not afraid of working with
animals, even if they're wildcats who turn into humans. <br />
<br />
When Spike's job puts his cub and Myka in danger, Spike is forced to choose
between those to whom he's pledged his loyalty and his need to protect the
woman and cub he's come to love.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
This book is the perfect example of why romance readers everywhere would love a
shifter mate. They love so fiercely. Spike is the tough fighting jaguar
shifter. He finds out he has a cub, and at the same time meets his mate. His
protective instincts go haywire. He doesn't want to do as he's told and you
don't know until the end if he's going against his alpha or working with him.
Myka has been so alone. They are so perfect for each other. I can't wait to
read more about them in future books.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Vice Sergeant Caroline Palmer is not into whips and chains... That is, not
until Homicide detective Lieutenant Michael 'Mick' McGraw--better known as The
Iceman--leads her undercover into a secret world she never dreamed existed. He
says they are tracking a sexual predator, a sadistic killer who preys on
adventurous suburban couples. But Caroline knows Mick is looking for something
else. Something much more dangerous. This erotic thriller will leave you
breathless in more ways than one.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
Can I just say wow! This was a super long book and I couldn’t put it down. To
me, this book describes a BDSM relationship perfectly (or as how I see it
should be). I can’t imagine the emotions the hero or heroine had to go thru.
There was so much push and pull between them. I love that Caroline was an
eager, meek little girl, but a sassy and confident woman. She gave as good as
she got. The sex scenes, well my fingers are still burning. This book is
extremely hot! I have definitely found a new author!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Summary</b><br />
Ashlei Preen had spent her entire childhood trying to fit in with the residents
of Haven. A pretty tall order for someone deemed a regular human in a town of
shifters. Still, in spite of her minor “defect” she managed to hold her own. As
an adult she applied that same tenacity, which saw her through childhood, to
her medical practice while trying to keep sane. Lately her thoughts have been
filled with the town’s newest resident who seems more eager to be away from her
rather than share the same air space.<br />
<br />
The little town of Haven was exactly what he needed. Seth Riddick was done with
the big city, and the stream of crime that consumed his life as a Special
Forces detective. He longed for the simplicity of the thriving shifter town
where he could be true to himself and enjoy a frequent hunt without fear of
being tranqed – that really pissed him off. Haven was definitely a paradise for
a lone wolf like him. But even paradise has its complications and for Seth it
comes equipped with a stethoscope and enough determination to have him questioning
his bachelor status.<br />
<br />
It isn’t long before the lines become blurred of who’s chasing whom.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
This book is full of hot as hell sex and one steamy hot Alpha werewolf, my
favorite type of hero! Ashlei has had it tough, never feeling like she will fit
into her shiftertown. Knowing a shifter would never want to mate with her since
she can’t shift. When the new Sheriff (Seth) comes into town she is immediately
smitten. After a month of avoidance, they finally get it on. Let me just say,
yummy! This book was nonstop action and sex. Ashlei is the heroine everyone
loves and Seth is the hero everyone wants. They are the perfect pair. <br />
<br />
Nia is a new author to me. I will definitely be checking out some of her other
work.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

Jacob Iverson has plans. Distant plans, but they exist. Find the right woman,
eventually settle down and do the whole “white picket fence” routine. But until
eventually comes, he’s having fun with right now. Then he meets Flora, who
blows him back a step. Suddenly his distant plans are rushing up to meet
him…only not quite the way he imagined.<br />
<br />
Abandoned at seventeen, Flora Simms has made her way through the world, found
life and family in the form of two best friends. Everything is just the way she
likes it. From life to love to relationships, she knows what she wants, how she
wants it, and doesn’t care if anyone agrees or not. And what she doesn’t want
is someone trying to tie her down with long-term plans. But Jacob Iverson seems
to love the future, somehow knows what she needs, and he’s hitting all the
right spots. But can Flora give up her idea of what independence means to let
him in?<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
I read the first book and couldn’t wait for this one. I wasn’t disappointed.
Hot as hell sex, a stubborn and sassy heroine and one steamy hot male. Yummilicious!
Flora is fighting abandonment issues, stemming from her childhood. Jacob is a
commitment-phobe. Jacob overcomes his problems to realize that Flora might
never overcome hers. I love the conflict and extreme sexual tension with these
two. They burn the sheets up! I can’t wait to read the next story. I want to
see how Tonya and Trent get together. Can’t wait til November!</span><br />

Candace Hudson wants a husband and babies. But a recent nasty break-up has her
rethinking the husband part of the equation. Griff Calhoun, a divorced father
and the product of divorce, wants to share his wealth and Texas cattle ranch to
open a summer camp for children of divorce. Candace already has a full-time
job; Griff wants her to consult with him on his project. Neither one is looking
for love, but both Candace and Griff get a much needed wake-up call.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
First, if you are looking for erotic romance, this is not for you. I generally
prefer erotic romance, but this was a sweet story of true love. Candace has
been burned by an ex-fiance and isn’t ready for a new romance. Griff got burned
badly and was left with a daughter from his first marriage. He didn’t want to
get married again. Looking to start a camp for kids from divorced families he
seeks out Candace for guidance. There’s an instant attraction, but their first
meeting is full of scandal. <br />
<br />
The couple overcomes an asshole ex-fiance, a psychopath stalker, a plane crash,
her dad’s heart attack and a complicated pregnancy. In the end they work it
out. I couldn’t stop reading this book. I wanted to know what happened next.
There was something happening throughout the whole book. This was an awesome
love story and told very well! Good job Linda, I hope we get Zeke’s story next.

After the tragic loss of her fiancé to war in Iraq two years earlier, Callie
was determined to go on. Still sad, totally alone and low on funds, she
traveled to Kensington State University to continue her education. Bravely
facing the challenge of building a life on her own, she unexpectedly fell in
love with Mac, the handsome dean, who helped her heart mend.<br />
<br />
Mac, lonely, divorced with a child, fell for Callie almost the instant he spied
her on campus. Patience, perseverance and passion brought Callie to his side.
However, their road to happiness was fraught with trials from coping with
ghosts from Callie’s past to the demands of Mac’s young son.<br />
<br />
Could their happiness survive a scheming ex-wife, a custody battle and murder
attempts from a vicious drug gang?<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
A tearjerker for sure! Callie has had it rough. She lost her parents at 16 and
then lost her fiancé to the war. Two years later, she starts to move on by
going back to school for her Master’s degree. While there she meets Mac, the
dean of the school. While working together, they fall in love. <br />
<br />
Their love story isn’t an easy one. It comes with several trials and obstacles.
Right after one works itself out, they are hit with another. You know you have
a story of true love when they turn to each other for support during their
trials and tribulations. Callie and Mac do this time and time again. I can’t
wait to read the next book in the Now and Forever series. </span></div>

<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Multicultural Erotic Romance with Adults
Only Content, explicit language and some drug use.</i><br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">What Does A Man Say to the Woman He
Betrayed But Never Stopped Loving?</b><br />
Three years ago, Zachary Steele refused to entertain thoughts of permanency
with any woman. A hedonist at heart, he didn’t want to corrupt the much
younger, Madigan DeLeon, by continuing his affair with her. With the hidden
scars of his past, he didn’t believe in happily-ever-after. By the time he
realized how much Madigan meant to him, he’d driven her away. Then, one night,
after being clean for a number of years, Zach briefly falls off the bandwagon.
He believes his lovemaking to Madi is a drug-induced hallucination. The
resulting consequences tell another story.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">What Does A Woman Do When the Only Man
She’s Ever Loved Hurt Her So Deeply She Feared She’d Never Recover?</b><br />
Three years after her affair with Zach so abruptly ended, celebutante, Madigan
DeLeon, is thrust back into Zach’s life by her mother’s machinations. Brought
home under the false pretenses of repairing her damaged relationship with her
mother, Madi instead finds herself running a private sex club called Wicked
Allure. Forced to confront her anger at his betrayal and grief at the loss of
what might’ve been, Madi faces the realization that she’s never stopped loving
Zach.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Can Two Broken Hearts Set Aside Anger
and Betrayal to Find True Love Once and For All?</b><br />
Searching the deepest recesses of their hearts, in a place where pride and pain
has no room, Madi and Zach must decide if their bond is strong enough to take a
second chance at love. Or if resuming their sexual relationship is an
irresistible wicked allure and the ghosts of their former relationship will
finally, and forever, sever all ties between them.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
An emotional, heart wrenching story of real love. Okay. Can I just say, that
Karolyn is a BITCH. She doesn’t deserve to be a mother or for her children to
love her. How can Jack remarry her and then not stick up for his daughters.
UHHHHHHH. That just pissed me off. Sorry, but as a mom, I wanted to reach in
the book and punch her.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now that that is
out of the way. HeHEHE. <br />
<br />
Zach is tormented and full of guilt. Madi is full of love, but is scared he
will hurt her again. Now, mind you, Zach does deserve her wrath, all the way or
not, he cheated. But for a mother to set her daughter up to get hurt like that.
Wow. I just don’t understand. How can you be jealous of your own child. Once
Madi and Zach work thru their differences the book is amazing. It’s hilarious
and will make you cry like a baby. I really hope the book continues into a book
2 and more. I really want to know what happens with Brittney and Kelly. Maybe
their mother deserves a background book as well so I can see what the hell is
going thru her mind. Sorry, I won’t start on that again. I did love this book.
The characters are so real for me. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<em><span style="font-family: "Calibri","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">All it takes is one night to change a cowboy’s
life…</span></em> Barrel racer Celia Lawson knows better than to tangle with
bull rider Kyle Gilchrist. The sexy cowboy’s love ‘em and leave ‘em ways have
earned him a reputation on the rodeo circuit, and he’s always seen her as his
best friend’s kid sister. But after one wild, tequila-fueled night, Celia wakes
up to find out she’s gotten herself hitched—to a man she never should have
married! When Celia insists on an annulment, Kyle has no good reason to say
no—except he isn’t ready to let go of his new bride. But then Kyle inherits a
sprawling Wyoming ranch, and seizes the opportunity to enlist Celia’s help. She
agrees to lend a hand—with two conditions: He has to get up to speed as a
rancher within six months; then they’ll get a divorce. And their marriage will
be in name only. Kyle gives in to Celia’s demand, yet he's ready to prove to
her he has what it takes to turn their one night rodeo into a lifetime of love….<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
I have been waiting for this book forever! Let’s just say, I was not
disappointed. Kyle and Celia have had a love hate relationship going on thru
the whole Blacktop Cowboys series. I loved and couldn’t wait for them to
realize what it was. It didn’t take Celia near as long as it did Kyle, but she
finally came to her senses. This book made me crack up laughing and then on the
next page I was crying, then squirming in my seat. I love Cowboys and no one
does them like Lorelei! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
You do for family, no matter what. Lane Iverson knows that better than anyone.
Harboring a secret about his mother’s death, Lane is counting the days until he
finishes helping his brothers with some work and can head back to his hiding
hole hours away. As long as he doesn’t have to face his three brothers every
day, the guilt is easier to carry.<br />
<br />
There is only one thing that can risk his plan. All of five foot tall, with
these deep eyes and a voice that shudders through him. The completely
addicting, Gretchen Jones. She’s been watching him the entire time he’s been in
town. With courage from her friends behind her, she confronts what she wants.
To her surprise, that’s the easy part. Keeping her heart protected when she
knows he’ll be leaving? Not so easy, but her only choice.<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
This cover is so freaking hot! The book matches! Wowser. This book has been on
my to buy list since it came out and I finally got it. Let’s just say, the next
two will not take that long for me to grab. Lane has been in Apple Trail helping
his brothers renovate a manor and clear it out for drilling. He is consumed by
guilt from keeping a secret from his brothers. He isn’t staying, can’t live
with the guilt. Then, he finally gives in to his attraction to Gretchen and
everything changes, but will he be strong enough to put his fears aside and
tell his brothers everything, risking him losing them? <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Rough Ride is full of hilarious sexual teasing, tension and
banter. Lane and Gretchen are made for each other. I can’t wait for Jacob and
Flora’s book!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Turned into a vampire against her will, twenty-eight-year-old Merit found her
way into the dark circle of Chicago’s vampire underground, where she learned
there was more to supernaturals than met the eye—and more supernaturals than
the public ever imagined. And not all the secrets she learned were for
sharing—among humans or inhumans. Now Merit is on the hunt, charging across the
stark American Midwest, tailing a rogue supernatural intent on stealing an
ancient artifact that could unleash catastrophic evil on the world. But Merit
is also the prey. An enemy of Chicagoland is hunting her, and he’ll stop at
nothing to get the book for himself. No mercy allowed.<br />
<br />
No rules apply. No lives spared. The race is on<br />
<br /><strong>Review</strong><br />
Can I just say wow? It was like two books in one. I so love this series and
this book is now one of my favorites. They had to fight the big fight twice in
this book as well as the GP. Ethan, Master Vampire that he is, pisses me off to
no end. And Merit, my girl, she is tough as nails and puts up with nothing. I
love her! Mallory – ehhhh, I’m still kinda iffy. I want to like her, but she’s
pissed me off. We’ll see when the new book comes. </span><span style="font-family: Wingdings; mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-char-type: symbol; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;"><span style="mso-char-type: symbol; mso-symbol-font-family: Wingdings;">J</span></span><span style="font-family: Calibri;"> Chloe, keep up the awesome

Only a fool would think they could steal from a werewolf…<br />
<br />
Anticipating a quiet night alone with the man she loves, Darcy’s world is sent
into a spin with the arrival of someone from the past—Mason’s. She is further
shocked by the intruder’s claim she may not even be the true mate of the Mystic
Wolves Alpha. Accusations start to fly, leading to her new enemy being granted
asylum, and this is just the beginning of trouble.<br />
<br />
Relying on the reassurances of Mason and the support of her friends and Pack,
Darcy soon falls under attack. Suspicions are raised, and with no other choice,
she must flee with Devlin to safety where hopefully they can untangle the lies
hidden behind the use of magic. Time is quickly ticking away, leading to a
showdown where everything is on the line. <br />
<br />
They need to uncover the truth before it’s too late, or once again, Darcy will
need to fight to hold onto her dreams.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
OK. I just finished the book and am still trying to get over the cliffhanger of
an ending. This book continues right where the 1<sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">st</span></sup> book in the
series (Mystic Wolves) left off. Let me just evil, thy name is Amber. Darcy and
Mason, the perfect couple, keep getting bombarded with one thing after another.
There are magic bonded items bound to kill, obsession spells and so much more
this poor couple has to defeat this book. And then the ending OMG. And I have
to wait until December until I find out what happens. I am going to die! This
is why I usually wait until the whole series comes out before reading it. I am
going to die. Belinda is a new author to me and let me tell you, I will be
reading more. Belinda, please, please I beg you, get Testing Fate out early. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

What would you do if a simple errand takes a deadly twist, turning you from
cautious prey to dangerous predator?<br />
<br />
Someone is trying to send a deadly message to Mason, arranging the deaths of
those he loves and it puts the entire pack and Alpha on high alert. Darcy
understands the primal instincts driving her beloved Mason's commands. With the
help of those he sets as protectors, she learns about herself and the things
she'll need to help support her Alpha and pack. When events turn dire however,
one truth offers her strength - once given, oaths are unbreakable ... even if
it means risking it all.<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
Wow! This book was so intense. I couldn’t stop reading. Mason is the most
loving, caring mate I have ever read. He put Darcy’s needs before his time and
time again. Darcy did the same as well. It is a truly beautiful romance. There
were moments I cried and then burst out laughing. I loved the heroine. She’s my
kind of chick. Now, the cliffhanger ending has me dying. I don’t believe it.
What the HELL! I am so reading Forget Me Not tonight!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
Brooke Eldridge only wants to forget what happened when she was twelve years
old. But when she returns to her hometown and runs into a boy from her past,
the terrible secret she’s tucked away for eighteen years returns to haunt her.
The grown-up Ian McCarthy is irresistible, and the closer he and Brooke become,
the harder it is to keep the truth from him. Brooke has no choice but to end the
deception, but revealing what she knows might mean losing Ian forever.<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
Very emotional and intense read. I loved Ian. He overcame so much. And poor
Brooke, being pulled by her best friend to keep a secret from the man she
loves. I am glad they overcame the issue and loved their HEA. Faith (best
friend) finally came around and realized she was wrong in keeping the secret. I
would love for Andrew to have a book. Maybe now that his secret is out he can
overcome is alcohol problem and get on with his life, hopefully saving his

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
When two lonely strangers meet in a bar on Valentine’s Day, they take
passionate solace in each other’s arms, little knowing that they will soon meet
again as business associates.<br />
<br />
Karen Samuels has sworn off emotionally unavailable men, deciding her time will
be much better spent building her fledgling graphic art company. <br />
<br />
David Anderson, a widower of seven months is still deep in mourning and
battling survivor’s guilt. Determined to open the restaurant that had been his
wife’s dream, and on the recommendation of his best friend, he hires a graphic
artist, sight unseen, to create the perfect logo.<br />
<br />
SHE knows his heart belongs to another.<br />
<br />
HE knows he could give her his heart, but he doesn’t deserve to be happy again.<br />
<br />
THEY know that falling in love will only bring more agony and despair.<br />
<br />
But, FATE knows otherwise.<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
What a moving romance. Both Karen and David both have major issues. I love how
they work through them together and that it's David, the one who lost his wife
and didn't want to let her go, that pulls thru first and brings Karen with him.
Karen, daughter of famous race car driver George Cutty, went buck wild in her
youth. As she got older she wanted to overcome her past and changed her name so
it wouldn't shadow her future. Well, the truth comes out and David is the one
who helps her pull through. <br />
<br />
I love the HEA in this story. Both the hero and the heroine deserve it!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><strong>Summary</strong><br />
After being shot three times in the chest and left for dead by his last lover,
Jake Duquesne decides the middle of nowhere is a good place to recuperate. And
it's perfect, until someone tries to sneak up on him, gun drawn and cocked.
Unfortunately for his would-be assailant, Jake is not one to wait around
quietly while someone tries to kill him.<br />
<br />
Waking up handcuffed to a strange bed is not part of Katarzyna Delaney's plans
after being jilted at the altar for the third time. Looking at Jake, however,
makes her realize plans should be flexible. With a few simple rules, she can
have her long-awaited honeymoon--and without a battery-operated device.<br />
<br />
Then people following no rules but their own join in.<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
A short read packed with hot sex and intense action. This book kept me on the
edge of my seat throughout. I loved it. I hope Ann continues bringing it just
like this. <br />
<br />
Jake has commitment issues, and Katarzyna has big brother issues, virginity
issues and failing engagment issues. Together they overcome all their problems,
even manage to detain a huge criminal. Both of the main characters are fully
developed.</span></div>

Ever since photographer Lacy Maguire caught her ex playing Pin the Secretary to
the Elevator Wall, she's been content with her dog Fabio, her three cats, and a
vow of chastity. But all that changes when the reindeer-antlered Fabio drags in
a very desperate, on-the-run detective who decides to take refuge in her
house--a house filled with twinkling lights and a decorated tree. (Okay, so
it's February. but she has a broken heart to mend, a Christmas-card shoot to
do, and a six-times divorced, match-making mother to appease.) For the first
time in a looong while, Lacy reconsiders her vow. Because sexy Chase Kelly,
wounded soul that he may be, would be an oh-so-delicious way of breaking her
fast. Now, if she can just keep them both alive and him out of jail...<br />
<br />
<strong>Review</strong><br />
Wow! Talk about a lot of twists and turns. I really liked this book. There were
times when it got a little slow for me. I actually stopped reading it for a
while and read a few other books, but eventually it just ate at me that I
didn’t know what happened. I finished it today. I am so glad I did. It had the
perfect ending.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Summary</b><br />
Grace Jamison had left the little town of Everly twelve years ago with her son
and vowed never to return. But in order to move on with her future, she finds
she has to return to her hometown and fix the wrongs of the past -- starting
with the only man who had the power to hurt her. <br />
<br />
The last person Trick Burnett wanted to see on West End property was his
adulterous one time stepmother -- the woman responsible for his father's
murder. Too bad his body seemed to have a mind of its own where Grace was
concerned. <br />
<br />
Trick hated secrets and Grace was a walking cache of them. He wasn't above
committing sexual blackmail in order to trick the truth from her time and
again. Her sweet responsiveness always left him hungry for more until the mere
revelation of her dark secrets was no longer enough. He couldn't rest until he
had everything from her -- mind, body and soul.<br />
<br />
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review</b><br />
I loved the twists and turns of this book. I loved how Trick tried with all his
might not to want or care for Grace, but couldn’t help it in the end. In fact,
the only thing I didn’t like was the way Grace allowed Trick to treat her. It
was as though she had no self-esteem. It’s explained in the end, but I like
strong-willed and sassy heroines usually. She didn’t ever gripe or whine about
it though, so that made up for it. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Grace puts everyone ahead of herself. If you are ready for
an emotional read, this is the book for you!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;">They call me the Spider. I'm the most feared assassin in the
South <span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"></span> when I'm not busy at the Pork Pit
cooking up the best barbecue in Ashland. As a Stone elemental, I can hear
everything from the whispers of the gravel beneath my feet to the vibrations of
the soaring Appalachian Mountains above me. My Ice magic also comes in handy
for making the occasional knife. But I don't use my powers on the job unless I
absolutely have to. Call it professional pride. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri;">Now that a ruthless Air elemental has double-crossed me and
killed my handler, I'm out for revenge. And I'll exterminate anyone who gets in
my way <span style="mso-ascii-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-hansi-font-family: Calibri;"></span> good or bad. I may look hot, but I'm
still one of the bad guys. Which is why I'm in trouble, since irresistibly
rugged Detective Donovan Caine has agreed to help me. The last thing this
coldhearted killer needs when I'm battling a magic more powerful than my own is
a sexy distraction...especially when Donovan wants me dead just as much as the
enemy.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Review<br />
</b>I have found a new series. I can’t wait to read the next book and see if
the detective comes around. I really wish Gin would’ve told him the truth about
what happened to his partner, why she killed him. She’s her own kinda cop I
would say. She only kills the people who deserve it. And OMG what a cliff
hanger of an ending. I can’t wait to see what happens with the packet of info
Fletcher left her. Keep up the good work Jennifer. I will definitely be reading
the rest of the series. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span lang="EN">The good news is that Morgan Jones has landed her dream job, co-presenting the Saturday morning TV cookery show, Cook’s Treat. The bad news is she’ll be working alongside the hottest celebrity chef inLondon, Scott Harley. <br />
<br />
Voluptuous Morgan has never forgiven Scott for trashing her cooking style and physical appearance in a magazine article, but when she meets him in the flesh for the first time her reaction is very different. The attraction between the two of them is mutual and undeniable, but she’s determined not to fall for his obvious charms. Their chemistry on the show disguises the tension behind the scenes – a tension that grows more sexual by the day.<br />
<br />
Can she stand the growing heat – or should Morgan get out of the kitchen?</span></span><a href="http://www.blogger.com/l"></a><br />

<span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Review</strong><br />
Talk about turning up the heat. What a scrumptious treat this book turned out to be. Morgan and Scott have a chemistry that definitely turns up the heat. I think that maybe Morgan should've confronted Scott about his past comments about her (from before they met), especially since they had bothered her so much. It was like she just forgot about them. Of course, I might have too with him creating new recipes on me. <br />

<strong>Summary</strong></span><span style="font-size: small;">
</span><span lang="EN">A highly sensual love story of passion, danger and primal rules.<br />
<br />
Bethany Garrett's brother is kidnapped by a group known as The Hunters who make it their life mission to track down and kill shapeshifters. The Hunters offer Bethany a deal for her brother's life: Infiltrate the most dangerous group of wolf shifters known and help destroy them. She's not prepared for the instant attraction she feels for the alpha of the pack, Kane Steele. Now, not only is her life in danger but also her heart and soul. Because once Kane finds out the truth of why she's there, she doesn't stand a chance of living very long. And Kane has her sited as his prey now. Bethany knows the time for turning back was lost the minute she and Kane met. And she's about to find out what it means when a wolf shifter tells her she's his, no matter what happens in the following days of peril</span><br />

<b>Review</b><br />
What a story! I couldn't put it down. It was nonstop temptation. Poor Bethany, she was stuck in between a rock and a hard place. But with a hard place like Kane, who could resist. Yummy! Kane is the Alpha and oh my is he Alpha. Yummily so. Between her struggle with right and wrong (and she had a couple of those), I'm surprised poor Bethany didn't go insane, I might have... insane from lust anyways. This is definitely a keeper!<br /></span></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
