REVIEW: Bound for Glory – Recommended!

BOUND FOR GLORY by Tess LeSue met all my expectations and surpassed them beyond what I could imagine. It was hard for me to envision Deathrider’s story, even though I’ve craved it since reading the first book where he appeared. I knew it would take a tough woman to out-fox and out-talk him. Ava Archer…

REVIEW: A Madness of Sunshine

A Madness of Sunshine by Nalini Singh is a great character-driven suspense in a small coastal town in New Zealand filled with likely suspects. It reminded me of mysteries I’ve enjoyed in rural UK, except this one is more nature focused. It has that same style, where the setting adds to the intrigue. The characters…

Review: Whippoorwill

Whippoorwill by Sharon Sala is the strangest western I’ve ever read. I love westerns and western romance, as well as those with some raunchy comedy, so I really wanted to love this. Which is why I kept reading, hoping it would smooth out and meet my preferences. Why was this book in Dorine’s TBR? I’m…

REVIEW: The Charmer in Chaps

THE CHARMER IN CHAPS is meet-cute scrumptiousness, exactly how I love my romantic reading. Lots of flirting and charm overload that made me laugh. I needed this couple’s happy-ever-after as much as they did! Luca Prince is clueless sometimes on how to woo a woman. He slid by on his stunning good looks, a radiant…
