Livin' La Vida Llama ~ A Lighthearted Look at Life Over 60
Oh, how I love Jaclyn Reding's work! Everything I have read by her has been thoroughly engrossing, and Chasing Dreams is no exception. With well-crafted characters, twists, and turns, Cassia and Rolfe's story kept my attention from start to finish. I just couldn't put it down! The second in a two-book series (Merry Monarchs), it...

Many years ago, when I worked in a bookstore, I staunchly defended Romance books by pointing out specific titles and authors. If I still worked in a bookstore, The Avenging Angel and the Spy and its predecessor, The Rebellious Lady and the Phantom Lord, would be right at the top of my recommendation list! They...

Oh, this was a heart-wrenching page-turner if ever I read one! It took mere moments before I was thoroughly engrossed within the pages of The Rebellious Lady and the Phantom Lord. At one point, I was so caught up in Pheadra's story that if it wasn't for my tummy grumbling for dinner, I had little... Continue Reading →
A book to get lost in, you say? Why yes! Laird of Sighs snuck into the corners of my mind and begged to be picked up instead of folding the laundry. I'll admit it: I let the story carry me away, and the laundry stayed in the dryer for a wee bit longer than it... Continue Reading →
What a perfect blend of romance and intrigue this was! Intelligently crafted, I found myself captivated as Melisende and Philip's story built steadily and powerfully. Each chapter added more depth to the characters and complexity to the plot. Like a fine wine or a full-bodied coffee, My Lady Melisende is a story to be savored.... Continue Reading →
Close your news feed. Tuck your social media aside for a while. It's time to curl up with a romantic getaway to St. Andrews, Scotland. It's okay. They'll all still be there when you get back. Reading Adrian and Derry's story, I felt transported. Yes, of course, I took care of my daily obligations, but... Continue Reading →
You know those books you put down for a bit, but the story and characters call you back? That's how The Banished Bride was for me! You see, I picked up one of those yucky winter viruses. You know, the ones that wipe you out and boggle your concentration? Yet, this lovely story kept calling... Continue Reading →
A free-spirited pet shop owner, a by-the-book cop, two adorable kids, and a big, lovable, mayhem-causing dog…I knew there was no chance of putting this book down, even with gifts to wrap and tuck under the tree! Oh, and I was so right! A Perfect Match is a great story with down-to-earth characters and a... Continue Reading →
Maybe it's the weather or the holiday season that's finally upon us, but I cannot help but compare Magic of Moonlight to a freshly made cup of hot chocolate. Not just any hot chocolate, either, but one swirled with caramel-like prose and laced with humor like little marshmallows floating in the mug. Alex and Trudy's... Continue Reading →
I love this author's writing style so much that I picked up this book without paying attention to the fact that it was the second in a series, figuring I'd enjoy this one. I was right!
