very good

4 Hearts! ~~~ I thoroughly enjoyed this coming of age love story by G. A. Hauser.  Young Mark is on a quest to find himself and the father who rejected him before his birth.  But his journey is more than one of learning his past, it's also a journey of sensual discoveries which leads to the love of his life.

Mark Antonious deMontford by G. A. Hauser ~ Linden Bay Romance ~ December 2008

4 Hearts! ~~~ This is my first read from Ms. Loy and it will not be my last!  This is a fun, witty, romantic read with a drool worthy hero that will charm your socks off and a fiesty heroine that will make you laugh with her quick humour and cry with her inner turmoil.  This lovestory drew me in from the first pages and I quickly found myself at the end. 

4 Hearts! ~~~ In this latest scorcher from Lacey Alexander, Wendy tries hard to convince herself that the hot anything goes action between the sheets she shares with Brandon is strictly no strings.   Of course, she's fooling herself ... the reason it's so good between them is that their connection reaches beyond just the physical.   Though the heat in this one is off the charts, it's appropriate for the developing bond between Wendy and Brandon.  If you like your romance hot, you'll love this one!

4 Hearts! ~~~ It takes Cassie's special guileless charm to soften Hunter's heart.  This is a love at first sight romance, though neither Cassie or Hunter were prepared to admit it!   Sweet, sensual, -- a feel good read.

Bought for Revenge, Bedded for Pleasure by Emma Darcy ~ Harlequin Presents #2731 ~ June 2008

3 ½ Hearts! ~~~ This is a moving lovestory of a young woman wracked with emotional turmoil over the mistakes from her youth.  Surprisingly it's the man she once destroyed that becomes her saviour. 

Bedded and Wedded for Revenge by Melanie Milburne ~ Harlequin Presents Extra #35 ~ December 2008

4 Hearts! ~~~ Ms. Hardy shows us that best friends can indeed become lovers of the everlasting kind.   There are a few heartwrenching moments but our hero proves he's much more than an Indiana Jones adventurer and that he's got the heart to be the hero Bel deserves.
