Holiday with A Vampire

These stories were so out-of-the-ordinary. Christmas Cravings had the vampire hero, who has ties to another vampire story I've read, returning to his ancestral home in the midst of a vampiric war. The outcome was unexpected. In Fate Calls, I found a story that was so compelling that I practically devoured the book. It's a must read.

How To Trap A Parent

I loved this book. Any story that has kids trying to get parents back together is a story to read. What a twist that both kids shared the same dad. Couldn't put this one down.

The Missing Mon

Since Maggie and Will were so in love, it wasn't much a leap to realize that Amy is the daughter Maggie gave up at birth. The wrong conclusions about each other were also not hard to see.

The Valentine Gift

These stories were so strong and compelling. Valentine's Daughters was fun to read about three generations of Valentine Day conceptions. Our Day brought a lot of issues to home for me. It reminded me that couples tend to forget that they are couples as life and the drive for success pull us apart. The Hand That Gives the Rose was a wonderful, long long love story

The Empath

This book was great. I love the stories about the Draicon. I don't think this is the first book about them. I remember Damian from another story. The whole idea of werewolves and empaths and demons is so enthralling, I can't get enough of them. Thank you Bonnie.

The Billinaire and His Boss

I read this one while suffering from insomnia. Glad I'd started it before I went to bed, it was handy and helped me get through the night. P.J. was a perfect match for Alex. I thought the fact that both were rich and in "hiding" at the warehouse was terrific. I laughed through this one, albeit quietly.

Falling for the M.D

Bethany was a hoot. I loved her bold as brass attitude, not realizing it was all just a ruse. One to advance her career. Peter was the perfect hero to bring Bethany out of her shell and she also helped him deal with the secrets his father left him. Couldn't put this one down.

Yours, Mine...Or Ours?

This book was fun to read. Violet and Rudy are such a dynamic couple. I liked the twist with the finding of the will and Rudy making Vi a partner in the hotel. The story with Stacey was brilliant. I found new ways of dealing with my daughter's teenage drama through the way Violet and Mia dealt with Stacey.

Alaskan Fantasy

I love reading about the Iditarod. Elle James created a fun and exciting story that was a pleasure to read. I like the new series of Stealth Operations Specialists.

The Stranger and I

This book was exciting. Lila inadvertantly got involved in anti-terriorist activities. Justin Vidal is the epitome of a "Lone Wolf," his call sign. We never did learn the call sign for Lila, one she'd asked for throughout the book as she saved Justin's life, time and time again. Wonder what it could be.
