Sacked by Jen Frederick

Sacked by Jen Frederick

3.5 stars — This was a fun sports story, and in general I liked both characters, but it was just missing something to really wow me. Knox was a bit of a dichotomy to me…he could be sweet and romantic, he had strong convictions, worked very hard, was extremely disciplined, all that good stuff.  I admired […]

Beard in Mind by Penny Reid

Beard in Mind by Penny Reid

4.5 stars — Beau was the absolute highlight of this story for me…  Now don’t get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoyed Shelly as well, but Beau surprised the heck out of me, he was nothing like what I was expecting.  And I totally fell in love with him, he stole my heart, and I ache […]

Beard Science by Penny Reid

Beard Science by Penny Reid

5 stars — Well would you look at that!!  I LOVED this one!!  Which surprised the heck out of me, b/c I was uncertain about Cletus in the previous books…he seemed…sociopathic in some ways.  Just too smart for his own good, and I was wondering how I was going to fall in love with him, […]

Beauty and the Mustache by Penny Reid

Beauty and the Mustache by Penny Reid

4 stars — Another thoroughly enjoyable read by Ms. Reid (and yes, I did that on purpose).  I was so relieved because I’d become cautious about the Knitting in the City books since I was on the fence with Neanderthal.  I think part of my problem with NSH was that Janie is a bit of […]

Game of Hearts by Cathy Yardley

Game of Hearts by Cathy Yardley

5 stars — You know when you eat an amazing meal of your favourite foods, and when you’re finished you slump back in your chair with a smile of pure giddiness and satisfaction on your face?  Yeah, that’s what I looked like when I finished this book.  I’m not sure I’ll even be able to […]

Truth or Beard by Penny Reid

Truth or Beard by Penny Reid

4.5 stars — Yay!!!  Looks like this series might be a hit for me!!  I can’t tell you how excited that makes me, b/c so many of my friends LOVE Ms. Reid, and I’ve enjoyed her books, but with fairly strong caveats.  So it’s really relieving to be able to say that Grin & Beard […]

Royally Endowed by Emma Chase

Royally Endowed by Emma Chase

4.5 stars — Every time I read a book by Ms. Chase, I’m reminded why I love her.  There’s just something about each and every one of her characters that draws me in, makes me laugh, makes me feel for them, even when they’re all entirely different.  And their interactions are beyond amazing!  Always witty […]

Royally Raised by Emma Chase

Royally Raised by Emma Chase

4 stars — This was cute, but I ended up feeling disappointed by the length…and part of that is because the copy from Amazon (which might not have been the case with the one newsletter subscribers received) ends at 55%, and following that there are previews of other books by Emma Chase.  Which is awesome, […]

Until You’re Mine by Cindi Madsen

Until You’re Mine by Cindi Madsen

4.5 stars — OK, that one ended with a freaking bang man.  I was actually a little wary at the beginning, b/c while I was enjoying myself, I worried it might not be a complete winner for me personally purely based on the focus on Shane’s muscles…which, you’re going to say, are you nuts Lenore?  […]

Royally Matched by Emma Chase

Royally Matched by Emma Chase

4.5 stars — Oh yes, this was exactly what I was looking for and needing.  I actually think I liked it even better than Nicholas and Olivia’s story, and I LOVED that one!!  Who knew it could just get better and better?  GAH!!!  I love it when I love stuff.  I especially love it when […]
