What am I Kimani-Ing?
I've read:
The Object of His Protection - Brenda Jackson (Kimani Romance) - great ending to the Braddocks series.
The Player's Proposal - Angie Daniels (Kimani Romance ) - loved Jaden's story.
Tender Secrets - Ann Christopher - Loved it. I think Ann Christopher needs to go my must read list.
The Law of Desire - Gwyneth Bolton - loved it. I think this one is my fave so far. I hate that I have to wait so long for the next one.
Seducing the Matchmaker - Elaine Overton - a great story that reinforces why Elaine is one of my new fave authors.

First Crush - Marcia King-Gamble
Love, Lies and Scandal - Earl Sewell

I have so-oo many books on my to-be-read list! I'm on deadline wrapping up Patrick's story, Sizzling Seduction. But when I hand that in, I'm reading Angie Daniels latest, Elaine Overton's latest, Melanie Schuster's latest... so many! I did manage to read Brenda Jackson's installment to the Braddocks continuity. I had to wrap that up after following all summer. I will also be ordering that Adrianne Byrd January book on December 1. LOL. You know me and pre-order...
Star, thanks so much for your kind words about The Law of Desire. I have to say, Lawrence is my favorite Hightower so far. Although, I'm trying my best to make Patrick even better. We'll see... Wayne and Katherine, I hope you all like The Law of Desire if you get a chance to read it. Thanks for your kind words about the Hightowers, Wayne! Katherine, I admire people who can wait until a series is complete to read them all back to back. I'm the read them as they come out and then anxiously await the next installment. LOL.

New books
I just received my new order of books yesterday, so now I just have to decide what to read first. Sigh. I've got COSMIC RENDEZEVOUS by Robyn Amos and NINE MONTHS WITH THOMAS, by Shirley Hailstock. They are both great authors, so I know I'll enjoy both books. Hmmm. I may have to toss a coin. I need to get them read before this past Friday's books come in.
Happy reading everyone!!

Both books are wonderful reads, so it doesn't matter which you read first. I read the Hailstock book first since it's the second book in the SURPRISE YOU'RE EXPECTING! continuity started with HUDSONS CROSSING by AlTonya Washington.
Next month is Candice Poarch's LOVING SPOONFUL. Next month also sees the start of the Mother Nature Matchmaker continuity.

Adrianne Byrd
Hi Wayne
I read all of the April series of Kimani they were all good, I especially love the "You' Expecting " series. I just finish reading my long awaited sereies of the Hinton brothers second installment from "Fire and Desire" and although it took almost two years I was not disappointed. A lilttel shocked of the turn of events in this story line. Sterling and Alyssa story was great and still I hope there is more to come at least for a happy ending for Quentin Hinton. Wayne I hope you can get Adrianne as the next featured author on the forum do you think that is possible? I also hope the Harlequin/ Arabasque was smart enough to let adrianne complete the Hinton brothers story. What do you think. Hope you all have a happy easter!

I'm enjoying the Expecting
I'm enjoying the Expecting series too. I've read the first two and got the third in the mail. I ordered all four books for May. It's becoming a trend with me. Currently I am reading Sugar Rush then I will read Brenda's Temperatures Rising. So many great books to read. I just know I am going to enjoyed For You I Do - The Beaumonts newest book. My reading time has been short lately so I am behind. I still have Cosmic Rendezvous by Robyn Amos and AC's Defying Desire.

Hi
I am in the middle of Shirley Hailstock's NINE MONTHS WITH THOMAS. This book is fabulous. No surprise there, since all of Shirley's books are wonderful. I was fortunate enough to share a table with her at a luncheon last year at the RWA conference. She is the nicest person.
Next up is COSMIC RENDEZVOUS by Robyn Amos.

I just finished NINE MONTHS WITH THOMAS. It was so good. If you don't have it yet, I totally recommend getting it. You will love it. Next up for me is COSMIC RENDEZVOUS.
Ms. M - I'll post back when I finish. I have loved all of Robyn's books so far and I expect I'll love this one too.
Have a great day everyone.

Hi
As expected, I loved COSMIC RENDEZVOUS. I'm always sorry to reach the end of a great book. Fortunately my TBR pile is high and growing higher, so I should find a few great books to keep me going.

Very entertaining to say the least. This is a must-read for anyone looking to
find love!

Intimate Seduction by Brenda Jackson
I love men that are dumb in certain areas of their lives and get a bad case of hoof and mouth diseae. Donovan Steele is a case in point. He is a hard working and playing man. He is also handsome and intelligent, that is until he meets Natalie Ford. Natalie Ford is a sensual and intelligent woman, who is just beginning to realize she has been hiding her sensual nature under a bushel or could it have been trampled? Donovan Steele knows exactly what he wants in a relationship and he states it boldly. The story is basically about do we always know what we really want and that when we assume we make and ass of you and me. I just have to say it was a fun quick read.
Man of Fate by Rochelle Alers
This is a well crafted story. It grabbed me from the very first page, what makes it so absorbing is the interactions of the characters. I am not speaking of just the main characters Kyle who is an intelligent, determined and handsome man, or Ava who is a feisty, stubborn, determined and good looking woman. The secondary characters are richly written. These are characters that draw you into the story.
ms.m Thanks for the
ms.m
Thanks for the wonderful reviews and recommendations. I have both of the book in my TBR pile, but with 174 books on my Sony Reader, choosing has become so difficult, so when a reader recommends it definitely helps.
On another good note, Rochelle Alers will have an online story (weekly) beginning 29th June called "Man of Fame" connected to her Best Men trilogy.

Wayne
Thank you for telling me about the online read for Ms. Alers.

To get to the eBoutique, you can always click on "eBooks" next to "Formats" in the 3rd banner from the top. (Right now, you can click HERE, but I wanted you to know how to get there from any of the community pages.

The Donovans Book IV
I just downloaded Full House Seduction by A.C. Arthur and finished Intimate Seduction by Brenda Jackson and Sensual Winds by Carmen Green earlier this week.
Full House Seduction by A.C. Arthur
This book was wonderful. It had just the right amount of feisty woman and testosterone driven male with a side dose of protectiveness thrown in. Noelle has grown into a fine and independent woman who was given the task of getting the Gramecy ll up and running. Brock Remington is her cohort in this venture. How will their mutual attraction effect the opening of this casino and will Luther, Noelle's ex lover upset the apple cart?. I loved the end of the book, you don' t mess with this family. They will kick butt.
