I stopped into a drugstore on my lunch hour today and discovered a gold mine! Linda Howards PB release "Up Close and Dangerous" and Anne Stuart's latest in the Ice Series "Fire And Ice" were on their book shelves. I grabbed both. Now which one do I read first? Decisions, Decisions!

I chose LH
and, you know, I was disappointed. I finished the book last night and the ending wasn't worth staying up late for. I've always enjoyed LH's books so I need to think about why I didn't care for this one. It could be their being trapped on a mountain in cold conditions. I'll blog it later after I've analyzed my feelings on it.

I thought i had that one,
I thought i had that one, but on checking i don't, so i guess i won't race out to buy it, at least till i'm caught up on everything else of hers waiting, and at this rate, i'll never run out. lol

HI Paisley!
I have always adored Linda Howard and actually I purchased the Nocturne only because she was the author. I enjoyed the series but I don't think it was as good as her other books. Why do I like her writing? It's suspenseful, intense, sometimes a little psychic and the romances are excellent (and hot too, sometimes). This one, UCAD, just wasn't up to her usual nail-biting suspense and I found the romance a little to quick to be believable. That said LH could write a phone book and I'd still buy it! So this one wasn't as good as her usuals but it still better than a lot others.
If you want to try other LH's I recommend: Dying to Please, Cry No More (excellent, have some hankies ready!) Dream Man, Mr. Perfect, Son of the Morning (really, really good) Killing Time (good time-travel twist) and for a hilarious laugh out loud time: To Die For and it's sequel Drop Dead Gorgeous. I almost didn't read TDF because it is written in the 1st person POV - what a big mistake I almost made.
I have her entire backlist and there's not a bad one in the bunch. I love her older Harlequins too.

Oops, i was just logging
Oops, i was just logging some books i had waiting here and low and behold, i do have UCAD. I bought it last week-end from Costco in PG. It was on the bottom of the stack and i didn't see it. Goes to show i didn't buy it for the title etc., but because it was written by LH.
I enjoy most everything she writes, so therefor try to buy most everything she writes.
