Innocent on Her Wedding Night by Sara Craven

Innocent on Her Wedding Night by Sara Craven

3.5 stars — This was one of those Harlequins that I kept because I enjoyed, and I guess I decided to reread it to see what current Lenore thinks. The thing is, the things I enjoyed are still there and I can see why I was sucked in. There’s a guilty pleasure about reading books […]

3.5 stars — So I just went back and reread my reviews for the first two books, and apparently I feel consistently about the books in this series.  There is a lot I LOVE, but I tend to have the same complaints.  I always end the book not entirely sure how I feel about it…which […]

Christmas Polar Bear by Kestra Pingree

Christmas Polar Bear by Kestra Pingree

3.5 stars — There were definitely a lot of fun elements, and I enjoyed the world (even though I may not have always understood what exactly Trinity is…perhaps I should have read book 1 first?).  I will admit that the writing was a bit more basic than what I typically enjoy.  Definitely not bad, but…I […]

Extinction Point by Paul Antony Jones

Extinction Point by Paul Antony Jones

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4 stars — Oh dear…that was totally out of my normal realm of reading…. Very well written, great descriptions…I actually felt like I was there, and frankly I was terrified. Honestly, the only reason it didn’t get to more stars was my own personal taste….I tend to get really into books, and that’s […]

OVERALL: 3.5 stars — You know, this was a pretty successful anthology!  I find there are always a few gems (in this case it was Britt and the Bike God, Per Aspera Ad Astra, and A Curse, A Kindness), and then a few that just don’t hit.  In this one, the ones that didn’t hit […]

Lost Girls by Merrie Destefano

Lost Girls by Merrie Destefano

3.5 stars — This book had a lot of ups and downs, but it mostly pulled it in in the end. I will admit that I was initially intrigued by the mystery…but then I started not really liking or connecting with Rachel and for a good chunk of the beginning-middle I kinda just wanted to […]

Nocturnal by Chelsea M. Cameron

Nocturnal by Chelsea M. Cameron

ORIGINAL REVIEW: 4.5 stars — I must say that this book broke the mold for me for paranormal romance. For one, the romance was really slow and in some ways more realistic b/c it started out with an innate curiosity about the other…something that tugged them together, for reasons they could not explain, and made […]
