Livin' La Vida Llama ~ A Lighthearted Look at Life Over 60
You know those moments when you need to be whisked away to another world? House of Fire and Magic showed up when I needed it most, and oh, did it deliver! I was immediately caught up in this tale of Dragons, Unicorns, and many other creatures. Not one of them is stereotypical, so if you're... Continue Reading →
I love the symbolism of this title, The Wedding Dress. Please don't ask me what it is; I'm not one for spoilers...but it follows the same idea as the first two books in this series, Picket Fence, and The Hope Chest. And while this is the third in a series, it stands beautifully on its own.... Continue Reading →
"Respectable lady scholars shouldn’t be dodging evildoers, escaping lost tombs, and chasing down magical artifacts." It was ten o'clock at night, and I was seventy percent of the way through Tomb of the Sun King. I knew better as I climbed into bed, my Kindle in hand. "Just one more chapter" turned into many different... Continue Reading →
I don't like to read contemporary fiction, especially ones written as beautifully as this one. You know the ones: They tug at your heartstrings, pulling them like old-fashioned taffy you can watch from outside a store window. Then, just as you're sure those strings will snap apart, they start to warm and become stronger than... Continue Reading →
Let me start by saying I have turned into a big fan of this author's work. While I rarely read contemporary Romances, I could not resist this one. It's a sequel to The Secret Gift, and although both were published once before (a number of years ago), they are new to me, and I am... Continue Reading →
When I pick up a book by this author, I know I am in for a great story. Countess of Stars was no exception. However, I did not expect the story of these characters in this sequel to Once Upon a Storm. Without explaining why (spoilers, darling!), I disliked Lucien so much in the first... Continue Reading →
Admittedly, I am a big fan of books based on fairy tales, and The Gingerbread Queen is no exception. A true page-turner, I did not want to put it down! I even fell asleep reading just for that "one more chapter." This story of Hansel and Gretel as adults is simply captivating and filled with... Continue Reading →
I love it when books cause me to picture scenes in them days after I finish them. Beautifully written, The Secret Gift is one of those books! I found it thoroughly engrossing and devoured it quickly. Days later, images from the story popped into my head randomly and made me smile. I did, however, have... Continue Reading →
When I read the description of this book, it grabbed my attention so much that I immediately read the first two in the series. I am so glad I did. Although A Touch of Magic stands well on its own, reading the first two added more depth to an otherwise wonderful story. Ms. Boucher's writing... Continue Reading →
I love Cynthia Wright's writing style. However, I was a little wary when I first started reading His Fiery Angel. When we first meet Camille, "fiery" is an understatement. To be honest, she drove me a little nuts…at first. Benedict had me intrigued at his first interaction with Camille. However, when he returned to his... Continue Reading →
