Book

The Last Victim (2012)

This was a big disappointment for me.The story started out well, with what was set up to be an interesting murder investigation with an "I see dead people" slightly supernatural aspect. Initially I liked Charley and her ability to see the recently dead victims of violence. It was a different kind...

Book

Shiver (2012)

Let’s see where to begin….. It took longer to read this book than I thought it should. This is the first book I have read by this author and I only picked it because of the color for this year birth stone challenge, so I wasn’t expecting it to be that good. But surprisingly it was really great. I...

Book

Maggy's Child (1994)

This book was enjoyable for a lot of reasons, but I also struggled with it for a lot of reasons. I'm on a Karen Robards kick, because I've just discovered her, and there's a lot in her writing that I enjoy and that remind me of another favorite author--Sandra Brown. She handles the emotional inte...

Book

To Trust a Stranger (2006)

To Trust A Stranger starts out silly but it’s the good kind of silly that may actually make you smile if you’re in the right frame of mind. It was fun and just as I was settling in for a fluffy, light-hearted read the heroine went all bitchy on me. And it’s never pretty when that happens.Sigh.Thi...

Book

Beachcomber (2004)

This book was just okay. I read this for my romance book club. I picked it because I heard it was a good example of the romance suspense genre. It was very suspenseful and a bit scary. This book just didn't do it for me for a number of reasons. First, this is a romance novel and though there was ...

Book

Book

Wild Orchids (1986)

Reading Wild Orchids by Karen Robards for the 3rd time doesn’t seem to have diminished my enjoyment factor of the novel by even one iota. Call me crazy but even with the massive amount of books I have on my review pile, I just had to pick this one up and read it in one sitting yet again because t...

Book

Forbidden Love (1997)

Overall 4.5 starsRe: the audio. James Clamp did a good job of narrating. I don't normally like men narrating romance, because their female voices always make me think of a big strapping woman with 'man hands'. Of course, some females do an equally poor job with the males. YMMV, I'm sure.The stor...

Book

Bait (2005)

Overall, I thought this was a alright story. The fact the author used lots of the story to describe stuff was really annoying though. There were a lot of parts where I felt I was more skimming through, while looking for something to happen or just reading the dialogue.Questions/Comments:I couldn'...

Book

Amanda Rose (1984)

DNF at 37% with a little bit of "ick".I've never really given much thought to how long I've been reading romances. They have just always been lying around - on bookshelves, my kindle, library books, borrowed from friends, given away and fondly remembered, just always there. I talk a lot about S...

Book

Sleepwalker

Book

To Love a Man

It was a nice room, as hospital rooms go, its walls painted a cheery yellow instead of the usual dirty white and with deep blue carpeting on the floor.

Book

The Last Time I Saw Her (2015)

He pulled her more tightly against him, his hold on her hard and possessive.

The top of her head didn’t quite...

Manna From Heaven

Then he saw the...

Book

One Summer

For a moment he was frightened, thinking he must have somehow gone blind. Then he realized that wherever he was was very dark. So dark, he could see nothing.
