Great story. I really enjoyed the characters. It was an original. You don't read to may storys about the Victorian office-working woman, nice change from all the governesses and maids.

Loved it! This is the 2nd book in the series, The Heir, being the first, it can be a stand alone, BUT reading The Heir explains alot.

This is an EXCELLENT read, Dain tries to be such a hard-ass, but is such a squishy marshmellow. I love how Jess keeps him in line! Do not get me wrong, Dain is a total ALPHA male.

Cute story about Bailey (yes as in George) Sullivan, a woman who hates Christmas, but must come back home to run the family Christmas themed store. While there she is reaquainted with Finn, her high school sweetheart, which she ran from without any explanation.

I loved this book.

Nina figures she has her future all planned out, Joey helps her see what she REALLY wants.

Very disappointed!
If you are looking for a well-developed story of the relationship of the main characters, Brianna & Wolf, this is not the book for you. If you want to read about the political intrigue of King Edward II and Queen Isabelle's court, here you go.
This book's main storyline had very little to do with romance, and was primarily about the author's preception of history. It was painful for me to finish.
I have read most of Virginia Henley's novels, and always enjoyed the well-developed characters, their passion and story-lines. It will be very hard for me to pick up any of her new books after this.

The deWarrens are one of my favorite families to visit and re-visit. I really liked Blanche & Rex's story.

I absolutely LOVE Sarah McCarty's westerns, and with the much anticipated PROMISES REVEAL she has truly outdone herself, creating characters that really get into your heart, making you anxious to solve their conflicts and find the love they so richly deserve, and her smoking hot love scenes are so emotionally charged that you may just find your own body heating up, imaging just what the Rev can do for you. She hooks you into the story, drawing you into the lives of all the characters, eager to see how the Rev and Evie make their marriage work, excited to catch-up with past friends, and curious enough about other characters, that you are now fervently awaiting their books to come out!

Having “met” Brad, a/k/a the Rev in the previous Promise books, I couldn't wait to find out about his past, to see what created the man, and to learn what kind of woman would be right for him, I was not disappointed. Evie is the perfect woman for him, just what he needs, someone who he can enjoy a certain wildness with. I was annoyed with Evie's spoiled attitude, and her habit of jumping to conclusions early on in the book, but soon learned that it was a part of her that she was going to grow out of in her discovery of her love and trust in Brad. It was a great trip watching Brad and Evie find themselves, especially seeing Brad overcome his vulnerable side and learning that he really is worthy of love.

What a great book! Lisa Jewell has written a brilliant tale about a guy who is finding out that he has just let life pass him by, and wants to change that, though sometimes he needs a little nudge in the right direction. I don't read a lot of general fiction, sticking mainly to romance, but something kept pulling at me to try this book. My instincts didn't fail me, this is a light read full of humor and realization. Their were many sweet moments as we got to know Leah, Toby and his tenants. I was concerned that Toby would not be able to get the tenants to move on with their lives, allowing him to move on also, but was please with the resolutions.

I will be looking for more of Lisa Jewell's books to enjoy in the future.

SUGAR DADDY is not your typical romance, it was nothing like I had expected and I found it a refreshing change. First person is not my favorite perspective to read, in fact I usually avoid it, but Lisa Kleypas made it work for me. Her storyline and characters captivated me from the start. While at first I was leary of where the story was going, soon I was so enthralled, I just couldn't wait to see how it all unfolded!

I really liked Liberty, she was a strong person, that no matter what obstacle came up, she was able to overcome it. I liked that she had friends who helped her through difficult times, and she wasn't to stubborn to accept it when it was truly needed. I thought she was doing the best to raise her sister.

I could understand Hardy's determination to make something of himself. His leaving to chase his dreams, while hurtful to Liberty was the right choice. There was a heat between that had me wanting to see them get together, at least until she met Gage. Gage was a strong man with a great sense of integrity. He knew what he wanted, but he was smart enough not to give Liberty and ultimatum. The chemistry between Gage and Liberty was intense.

This is the first historical romance I EVER read, and it has hooked me for life. It was such a great and wonderful story. Beth Talbot and Raleigh Ekhart's struggles and triumphs were so well written. This is a story that made me cry, made me mad, and in the end made me very happy. I really do need to re-read it (I have a went dog-eared copy in storage)

Great Book! A "bodice ripper" of the 80's.
