I’m finally catching up on my reading after a busy January, February and into March. Since I enjoy a good GLBT romance (and write ’em), I purchased Court Appointed: A Serving Love Story by Annmarie McKenna. Nobody recommended this book to me. I’m also new to the author. So why did I buy? Trey is …
I must say Edit Palooza is keeping me busy. I miss reading my fave blogs on a regular basis, so busy or not, I have to make time for blog reading. Anyway, today I purchased $ix Days to Midnight by Kat Duncan at Kobo.com, because I really enjoyed Ransom’s Bond. I’m so glad I decided …
Emma Leigh Reed is the author of Crashing Hearts, her debut novel through Whiskey Creek Press. Emma is in the interview chair today, ready to answer a host of questions. Feel free to ask questions of your own! ***** 1. First off, tell us a little bit about yourself. I visited your web site and …
Yes, I switched back to old faithful–my choco theme. I tried out a few but none of them are good ol’ choco. It must be the book style or something, why I dig this theme. Anyhoo, not to stray off topic, I’m trying to pinpoint why I loved certain books, even when I couldn’t stand …
I popped Ransom’s Bond by Kat Duncan into my Sony a couple of days ago. Y’know, I never read a romatic suspense before, but I do love action movies with a slice of romance, so this is right up my alley. What can I say so far now that I’m on page forty-three? Kat doesn’t …
Today, Romance, She Wrote is pleased to host guest blogger Laurel Gans. ***** I love winter time on a college campus! The trees are all lit up and every coffee shop in a ten mile radius has Glee’s Christmas album on repeat. I even enjoyed pulling out last year’s fluffy coat and boots to brave …
Since we’re now into December, author Brenda Whiteside is guest blogging today about all things Christmas. Read on to here what she has to say… ***** I love another man besides my husband. And I’m not giving him up because I’ve loved him all my life. Santa Clause. Yes, I do believe. Everything about the …
Rosanne Bittner is one of my favourite authors. I’ve been reading her novels since discovering her work around the mid-90s. When I saw the setting for her inspirational story—gold rush in the Yukon—I made an instant purchase. What can I say about this book so far, seeing as I’m on chapter four? Nice pacing. Rosanne, …
I first encountered Kat Duncan when I signed up for Want Style? Get Grammar – 101 – 103 at Savvy Authors. Her organisational skills, instructional method, well-explained and easy-to-follow lessons, and constructive feedback for my homework impressed me so much that I signed on for two other workshops Kat would be teaching. After Scenes and …
Since I can’t review every book I read–if I did, I wouldn’t have time to write–I thought I’d do a post each time I pop a new novel into my e-reader. Currently, I’m turning the pages to Bonnie Dee‘s Four Kisses. What can I say so far? Gorgeous prose. Vivid descriptions. A realistic view of …
Maureen Jennings, Canadian mystery writer, is at the top of my fave authors’ list. She’s best known for her Murdoch Mysteries series that occur in Toronto, Canada during the Victorian period. Detective William Murdoch is employed by the Toronto Police Constabulary at Station House 4. While Murdoch prefers modern policing methods over conventional forms, his boss, …
This is an autobiography, but I’m recommending this book because Pamela Des Barres’ early life, in so many ways, plays out like a romance novel. Ms. Des Barres is more than clear she’s in search of her rock ‘n’ roll prince charming who’ll sweep her off her feet and take her to his Beverly Hills …
Published in the early nineties, the book’s narration has an old-school feel since Ms. Bittner refrains from using third person limited, and does a wee bit of telling instead of showing. Still, her writing holds up, along with the story and characters, otherwise I wouldn’t recommend this novel, or bother re-reading it for the bazillionth …
