4 stars — I will admit that the main reason I picked up this book is because Mary Jane Wells is the narrator. That won’t completely sell me on a book, but it’ll have me giving it a second look. And it sounded a bit different, a bit out of the ordinary for a historical […]
4 stars — Ha! I started this one stupidly at 1am when we had been out late and I couldn’t fall asleep right away thinking I would just read a chapter or two…next thing I know it’s 4am, and I’m forcing myself to put it down. The same thing happened the next night. So to […]
4 stars — Man I love Ms. Kleypas. Her historicals are always just so easy for me to read and fall in love with the characters. I mean, yes, I love some more than others. But this one definitely hit the right buttons for me. I remember being extremely intrigued by Cam Rohan in the […]
4 stars — There were a few aspects/moments in this story where I had my reservations, but about a gagillion others where I was just grinning and so fucking happy with the romance. It was nice to be listening to the duo of Mr. Hamilton and Mr. Morgan again as narrators. They were my first […]
4 stars — This is one of those books that kind of challenged me, b/c honestly? There were aspects that I was initially NOT a fan of. And I think I’m still thinking of them. But at the same time, b/c of those aspects, I think I was surprised at how much I ended up […]
3.5 stars — This one was pretty good from a Harlequin Presents standard. I loved the first half where they were celebrating her birthday and having a fun day together. It kind of got a bit frustrating when it got to the pregnancy and Mitch’s refusal to, you know, COMMUNICATE. Jane was actually pretty fun […]
4.5 stars — My regret? That I didn’t read this earlier and faster so that I could have met Ms. Eddings in person this past weekend. Ah well. Why is it that sometimes the hardest reviews to write are the really good ones? The biggest thing I can say about this book is that I […]
4.5 stars — This one had so many unbelievably cute moments in it, and it was balanced perfectly by depth of character, and all those challenges so many of us deal with as adults. I loved how unique and REAL both of our MCs were. They weren’t perfect cookie cutter romance heroines, they were so […]
4.5 stars — I actually read these novellas totally out of order and finished this one last, but that didn’t impact my enjoyment at all! I wasn’t sure what I was going to get with these two characters, but what I got was freaking adorable. I loved the crushes, and the tentativeness, and the blushes, […]
4 stars — While I definitely enjoyed this one, there were moments where I felt like the conflict drew out too long and I was impatience for growth or change…and probably on a personal note, I had a harder time remembering the issues of the times and Beatrice’s very valid avoidance of remarrying. Maybe because […]
