Got Demon? Saranna De Wylde Does!

How to Lose a Demon in 10 Days is one of the funniest books I've read in a very long time. Grace has ten days to shake her Russian mobster ex and save her son. So what does Grace do? She summons a demon to do her bidding, and what she gets is not just any demon but Caspian who is not just any old demon but the Prince of Hell. Add in an entire cast that runs the gamut from a dead hooker turned dominatrix demon gunning for his soul to the devil himself and you have a laugh a minute ride. Typically a book this funny loses the romance side of itself, but that is not the case in How to Lose a Demon, the romance builds at a fun and sexy pace, making it an absolute delight to read. I have read many comical romance authors but never one that had me laughing from the first page to the last. The pure insanity of this book has me anxious to come back for the rest of the books in this series. If you're one that likes your light paranormal, heavy on the steam, and insane on the laughs then I highly recommend this book.

Edgy and Suspenseful!

A whim purchase and a good whim at that. The book contains a lot of back story about the main couple Devon and Luke. It also has a major secondary story that surrounds Luke's brother Quinn. All in all this was a good suspense. Fast paced in just the right spots, and it will keep the reader guessing until the end. The romance is plotted out in just the right way as to not take away from the over all picture of the book. I know I'll be hitting the second book in this series in order to find out more about Quinn.

Good Book, Andersen pens another delightful novel

I love Susan Andersen and I love anything she writes. That Thing Called Love as a whole is wonderful. It contains all the elements that I look for in a contemporary romance novel. Jake was little more than a kid himself when he became a dad. Sure, he'd dreamed of escaping the resort town, but he’d also truly believed that Austin was better off with his grandparents. Now he wants no, needs to make up for his mistake. He intends to stay in Razor Bay only until he can convince Austin to return with him to New York. Trouble is, with sexy, protective, utterly irresistible Jenny in his life, and his bed, he may never want to leave Jake is a nice guy and Jenny is one strong woman after overcoming various obstacles in her life. However I felt like there was not enough interaction between Jake and his son Austin. I also had issue with Austin being fourteen with a mouth of someone much older. There is great chemistry between Jenny and Jake builds quickly and it’s fun to watch as these two come together.  I enjoyed this book; I just I just wish, I had felt the connection between father and son......Otherwise a very good romance indeed.

What a Fantastic Debut!

Molly O’Keefe’s Can’t Buy Me Love is one fantastic debut. Can’t Buy Me Love has all the elements that I love in a contemporary romance, a pair of strong leads, with a good set of supporting characters.  A girl from the wrong side of the tracks, Tara Jean Sweet knows that opportunity will never knock; she’ll have to seize it. Elderly Texas rancher Lyle Baker has a dying request: He will give Tara Jean a stake in his leather business in exchange for a little family subterfuge. All Tara Jean has to do is play the part of a gold-digging fiancée to lure Lyle’s estranged children home. The mission is soon accomplished. 
 
Now Lyle’s gone—and his ridiculously handsome son, Luc, an ice hockey superstar sidelined by injuries, is the new owner of Crooked Creek ranch. He’s also Tara Jean’s boss. But being so close to sinfully sweet Tara Jean does crazy things to Luc’s priorities, like make him want to pry her deepest secrets from those irresistible lips. But when Tara Jean’s past demands a dirty showdown, will Luc stay and fight?

It doesn’t take this book long for the sparks to begin flying. However there is no question that Tara and Luc are adversaries. These two have chemistry right off the bat, which keeps the pages moving and keeps the reader wanting to come back for more. Almost all of the characters involved in this book have been damaged in some way, shape or form.  This led to a depth that this reader didn’t see coming. I went into this book thinking it would be a light fluffy read, only to discover that it has some serious dark spots which made it all that much better. Fans of Susan Andersen, Carly Phillips and Jill Shalvis are sure to love this wonderful debut!

Fun in the Summertime Sun!

Believe it or Not is a fun, cute, and contemporary romance. Straight laced accountant Violet McGinn is at odds with who she really is, and when Violet’s psychic mother Moonbeam lands in the hospital it is us to Violet to take over running the family business. Drew Watson is the owner of the town’s local hot spot right next door. The only thing these two have in common is that neither believes in psychic phenomenon. Yet, Drew seems to play the right songs at the right time that tend to get Violet’s heart jumping. Believe it or Not is fun fun fun! This is one perfect summer time read.

What a Delightful Romp!

Jill Shalvis has done it again! She has assembled a cast of memorable and lovable characters that will keep readers coming back for more. The Lucky Harbor series has quickly become a favorite of mine. During the last year Chloe has moved to Lucky Harbor to help her two half- sisters Tara and Maddie start up a bed and breakfast, but Chloe is a known wild child. She enjoys her freedom which often times gets her into trouble. Sawyer is Lucky Harbor’s straight laced sheriff, who after his troubled filled teen years has turned his life around to become one of the town’s most upstanding citizens. When these two come together sparks fly and personalities clash. It is almost impossible not to fall in love with this delightful family and those that surround them. Head Over Heels is one fun not to be missed ride.
