Last weekend was a super late birthday present from the husband to me. A trip to Denver for the first RomCon! What’s RomCon, you ask? Why just the new Romantic Convention for readers to meet all their A list authors! I was super excited to find out that Julia Quinn, Nalini Singh, Julie James, Susan […]

I’m posting over at the Borders True Romance blog regarding my love for historical novels. Go take a look!
I”m terribly excited this morning because I just checked my favorite romance blog, Borders True Romance, and my review of Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah has been posted! Please go check out my review and the Borders True Romance blog and leave me a comment! I was so happy to be chosen as a guest […]
If anyone knows me at all, they know I am reader. Mostly romance but I read books all the time. Constantly. I know myself, and I know if I want to get anything done I can’t be in the middle of a book. If I am in the middle of the book… I. Must. Finish. […]
Well, this month was my first month with no loss. The first two weeks I was doing pretty good and down 1.5 but the middle of the month hit and we went on our trip and then everyone got sick. The last two weeks of the month I was literally looking for sweets multiple times […]

I just purchased the new JD Robb (Nora Roberts) Promises in Death, Julie James: Practice Makes Perfect (I adored her first book so I have HIGH HOPES for her second one!!), and Christina Dodd: Danger in a Red Dress. Christina is one of my favs too. Other than that, I finished two of my library […]

Ooh, I was so proud of myself this morning from distancing my temper from Sam’s temper. Yea, did that make sense? Well, anyway, EVERY MORNING she throws a big fit about getting dressed and changing her diaper. It has been this way for soooo long. We are just stuck in this huge rut that is […]

Ahh, Julie Garwood, another one of my favorite authors who sits up in my special bookcase upstairs. Garwood has been a favorite of mine for YEARS and I really loved her with the historical novels she used to write. Lately she is writing contemporary murder mystery with the traditional romance slant. I think I prefer […]

Seduced at Midnight by Jacquie D’Alessandro is a fun but intriguing murder mystery with one of members of the Ladies Literary Society in the staring role. This is the 3rd book in the “Mayhem in Mayfair” series and features Lady Julianne, the daughter of an Earl, and Gideon Mayne, a Bow Street Runner as the […]

Last weekend I was not feeling very motivated so I basically just sat around the house reading and sleeping! It was actually pretty nice. I read some good books, one of which was The Girl Most Likely To… by Susan Donovan. When I picked up the book after Christmas I knew I had read a […]

Susan Elizabeth Phillips is one of my favorite authors. Her books reside in my ‘special’ bookcase, the one up in our room with pretty glass windows which hubby has stolen (STOLEN) a full shelf of to use for his own books. You would think he lives here too, or something. Some day soon, I want […]
Kathryn Caskie is a USA Today bestselling author with her past trilogy series of the Royle Sisters. The series was written very well and Kathryn is on my list of ‘buys’ when she comes out with a new novel. That, plus the fact she writes with Avon Books (my favorite publishing company), and I usually […]
Just the Sexiest Man Alive is a must read. This is a go down to Borders (or buy from Amazon with Next Day Shipping, or even just run to my house and grab from my bookshelf…) and read it as soon as you get your hands on it! I was laughing throughout this whole book. […]
I picked up Lie to Me at Borders the other day before we left to Big Bear. It had a cute cover and text blurb on the front that hooked me, so I skimmed the back and added it to my pile. I ended up starting and finishing it in a day up in Big […]

Laurell K. Hamilton hooked me into her books when I started reading her vampire hunter series, Anita Blake. She writes incredibly well, has a fantastic edge for suspense, and keeps me hooked! After I read a few of the Anita Blake series (there are 16 books in the series currently), I found out she had […]
