The Bourne Matrimonial Agency has one rule: Never fall in love with the client. However, they never said anything about kissing a rake…

Briar Bourne’s matchmaking career could be summed up in two words—comic disaster. Unless she can learn about the irresistible forces that draw men and women together, her professional future looks rather bleak. But Briar has an intriguing plan—enlisting London’s most irredeemable rake to teach her everything he knows about attraction. Given his notorious reputation, it’s no surprise that Nicholas Blacklowe, the Earl of Edgemont, requests one thing in exchange for his tutelage. For every lesson, he wants a kiss in return. And what harm could there be in a simple kiss? After all, Briar would never fall for a scoundrel…

Yet Briar is so clever, so curious, so candid—so blasted tempting—that soon, Nicholas can’t stop wondering what it might be like if he was irresistible to her.

Ten lessons. Ten kisses. And a million ways to fall hopelessly, scandalously in love.

He’s been mistreated by two women and has no intention of marrying again. She’s a matchmaker but isn’t looking for own husband. She’s planning on working and taking care of herself. But she has a really good imagination and it soon backfires on her.

This is part of the Misadventures in Matchmaking series and she’s still learning her job. Her matchmaking techniques haven’t netted any success yet. But when she meets her friend’s cousin, she recognizes where she met him before. He was the one in the carriage smooching with a lady. He offers to teach her how to read people’s actions and learn more than they write on their applications for matchmaking. She just has to pay with kisses. Since she’d never been kissed before and needs the knowledge, she agrees.

She calls him arrogant and he tells her she’s naïve. They are both stubborn and persistent and in time, it sparks a romance between them.

The story flows well, you feel bad for the main female character because her matrimony prospects keep fall through, and you want to help Nicholas understand why he likes her so much. The author does a good job with personalities and characteristics. It sounds like something people would do and it’s a down-to-earth relationship. Soon people are falling in love everywhere.

Not only do you get to follow the courtship, the author gives an epilogue to let you know everything worked out well. I appreciated that. Here’s a good old fashioned romance with not quite enough chaperones…

CAT . . .

Cat Purdue has come a long way from the days when her father used her as partial payment for a gambling debt to a ruthless man. Reacquiring the saloon Father had lost, and turning it into a successful restaurant, is only the beginning of her drive for success.

FRANK . . .

Unable to reconcile the new, sophisticated Catherine Purdue from the saloon girl he once dallied with and foolishly spurned, Frank Carter finds himself blocking his growing attraction with sharp words and sarcasm. But when the Carters’ old nemesis escapes prison and comes back to Little Creede for vengeance, Frank’s only thought is to protect Cat, as well as his family.
There is further evidence of links amerikabulteni.com generic cialis for women between the two brains in our response to stress. Other cheap viagra sales may include little things like minor headaches, blured vision, muscle aches, palpitation and even heart attacks in extreme circumstances. The obese child is on a devastating path toward serious generico viagra on line health issues. It would be misguiding to propagate that http://amerikabulteni.com/2013/03/22/butun-dunyada-24-saatte-meydana-gelen-internet-aktivitesini-sadece-8-saniyede-seyredin/ cheapest viagra pills is without any side effect.
A PAIR OF HEARTS . . .

Determined to lead separate lives yet bound together by danger and their growing desire, Frank and Cat will leave their mark in the new state of Colorado.

I have mixed feelings about this book. It’s the second in the series and it’s obvious the main couple had had issues in the first book they were having to work out in this book. It’s technically a standalone, but I think my enjoyment of it would have been enhanced had I read the first book in the series as well.

I really like the main character, Cat Perdue. She is my kind of character. She’s feisty, independent, but has a tender heart that’s easily bruised, so she puts up this really tough exterior. She has some wonderful qualities—she’s probably my favorite character in the book. She does the most growing, and it’s really interesting to watch her come into her own person.

Frank has been away and comes back to find things changed in his hometown. The dance hall/saloon is gone, and in its place is a fine dining establishment – run by none other than the former entertainer for the dance hall. He hurt her badly at some time in the past, but has never been able to stop thinking about her and wishing he could make amends. And, therein lies the rub.

This couple has to overcome the past and deal with issues in the present. They are drawn to each other, but it’s hard for each of them to be completely honest with each other. The story is told from both POVs, and I find myself wanting to shake them both (Frank more than Cat to be honest) and make them tell each other what they are thinking. Frank, especially, would have come a long way if he had just told he how much he regretted what had happened. Of course, then we wouldn’t have had a book.

I did enjoy the book a lot- I love the extended family and all the family dynamics. Frank and his brother are sometimes too over-the-top protective of their female relations, but that’s part of the Code of the West and, I feel, very accurate for the time.

The writing is excellent, and I really felt I was there. I hurt along with Cat when she hurt. Kudos to the author, because I was really engrossed in the story… so much I stayed up way to late reading it! I would happily read more from this author. And, now I have to go read the first book!

Grim Morrigan, Guardian of the Ward and part-time private detective, polices the Folk, the clans of fairies who live in the foothills outside Denver. But his main job is concealing their true nature from the mortals around them.

Enter mortal Annie Duran, who hires him to look for her brother Richard, missing and presumed dead for ten years. Annie has seen Richard in the parking lot of the nightclub where she works. Now she wants answers, and Grim’s supposed to find them.

The quest for Richard ensnares both Grim and Annie in a sinister conspiracy involving kidnapped women and outlaw magic. But they also discover their own overwhelming attraction to each other.

This painful response can range anywhere from 20 minutes pharmacy canada cialis http://appalachianmagazine.com/2015/01/06/northern-west-virginia-vs-southern-west-virginia/ to 5 hours. First of all, you have to gain complete knowledge about levitra 60 mg appalachianmagazine.com this product.

When Annie herself disappears, Grim’s need for answers becomes even more urgent. With the help of a dissolute prince and a motley crew of unlikely fairies, Grim confronts a rebellion among the Folk.

And it may take more than just magic and luck to save both Annie and Grim this time.

Annie never could have imagined where the search for her brother would lead.

“Around ten o’clock, a man at one of the front tables began to glow.” This opening line immediately snagged my attention. I couldn’t help but giggle. It is such a casual way to phrase something so out of the ordinary. I eagerly started reading wondering what sort of magic I would find.

Annie is a very determined woman. She still feels the pain of losing her brother and the irreparable damage it did to her family. It is not surprising that she can’t move on until she has uncovered the truth about his disappearance. Annie discovers much more than she bargained for. I think she handles the knowledge of the supernatural world extremely well given the circumstances. Not only does Annie learn the Folk exist, but some of them want to silence her forever. However, Annie refuses to back down. I admire her strength.

Grim is a man of integrity. He tries to protect Annie from the Folk, but he doesn’t lie to her or try to sugar coat the truth of their situation. Grim trusts that Annie is strong enough to handle the truth. Annie and Grim have good chemistry, but their relationship gets serious very quickly. While their physical attraction to each other is undeniable, I wanted something more between them to anchor their relationship.

Bertie is definitely my favorite secondary character. I’m surprised by how much I ended up liking him as I didn’t expect him to play such an integral role in the story when I started reading. He comes off as a rich playboy at first, but he has a surprising depth to him. I hope to learn more about him in future installments of the series.

When the villain was revealed, I was caught off guard. I kept wondering how the disappearing women were connected to the reappearance of Annie’s brother but was not able to connect the dots until the very end. Even worse, the culprit was someone who seems trustworthy.

I enjoyed reading Away. I found the premise intriguing and look forward to learning more about the Folk in the next book!

When I read “Sparks fly when tenacious mountain climber and hiker Beasley McLemore meets hot smoke jumper Will Gregor on a search and rescue mission in Yosemite.” in the blurb, I couldn’t wait to read this story. That snippet sounded like a nice juicy medium rare steak to me. Top that off with “Through life-changing events and a family mystery,” I thought I was in for a delicious book glow.

I had to adjust my expectations a bit. Even though the story wasn’t as strong as I hoped, I was still satisfied with the scenic descriptive writing style, the well-developed side characters and pace of the book. Those are important characteristics for me and if a book is good, they’re in there. That’s a strong plus for Wildfire and Roses.

Instead of a book glow, the novel left me feeling like I do when I go to my favorite restaurant, order my favorite steak and it arrives not cooked as expected. Instead of complaining and returning it I still eat it because, hey, steak. So, while it still tasted good, it wasn’t exactly what I was hoping for. That’s pretty much sums up how I felt about this book.

The author switched things up with her character’s personalities. I found the hero, Will Gregor, to be relatable but his character was suppressed to an unrealistic humbleness, mixed with a slightly elevated estrogen level. It wasn’t exactly a match for his job description. As for Beasley McLemore, the heroine, she had a bit too much testosterone going on with her skill set. I love a strong leading lady but there needs to be a delicate balance between the two characters to convince me of their chemistry.

If I were to compare the book to a recipe, a baker needs the right amount of flavoring and spices to make it work. And, I know reviews and taste buds are all subjective. While I still connected with Will and Beasley, I struggled with the on again off again dynamic between them.

Overall I enjoyed the plot thread and found Wildfire and Roses to be an entertaining read. I loved the moral message of prioritizing work, love and life. I think that was a realistic struggle that many of us deal with on a daily basis. I loved the flare of drama and thought the ending was complete. Will and Beasley left me with a satisfied ending. There’s enough solid writing in this book to make it worth a recommend.

Dear Lady Truelove . . .

My twin brother and I need a new mother, though Papa insists he’ll never marry again. Must be nice, brainy, and fond of cats . . .

Lady Truelove may be London’s most famous advice columnist, but James St. Clair, the Earl of Kenyon, knows his wild young sons need a tutor, not a new mother. They need a man tough enough to make his hellions tow the line, and James is determined to find one.

Miss Amanda Leighton, former schoolteacher and governess, knows she has all the qualifications to be a tutor. And while female tutors are unheard of, Amanda isn’t about to lose the chance at her dream job because of pesky details like that. If Lord Kenyon insists on hiring a man, then she has only one option . . .

Jamie isn’t sure what to make of his new employee, until he realizes the shocking truth—beneath the ill-fitting suits, his boys’ tutor is a woman. An unconventional, outspoken, thoroughly intriguing woman. Despite Amanda’s deception, he can’t dismiss her when his boys are learning so much. Yet Jamie, too, is learning surprising lessons—about desire, seduction, and passionate second chances . . .

Oh, I really liked this one. The first chapter set the plot up perfectly and I was instantly enchanted. How could I not after meeting Owen and Colin St. Clair, two boys with pronounced personalities, and all they wanted was a mother who loved them? They have a grouch of a dad who wanted and demanded a certain kind of person for a nanny or tutor for his kids. The one person who could make a difference overheard a conversation that practically shut the door in her face for any chance of her being that person. However, the hero, Jamie, didn’t count on the sheer grit and determination of the heroine, Amanda. The questions of, how do Jamie and Amanda meet, how does she convince him she’s the right person for the job, and the complications that arise from her successful attempt, are all the elements needed to snare a reader. It’s the answers that kept me flipping page after page with never a dull moment between chapters. This was an excellent read.

I admit that the title, Governess Gone Rogue is what grabbed my attention, and yes, the plot made me curious but it’s the delivery that made me a very happy reader. The secondary characters are really important because they helped stir the plot, kept things interesting and showed me just who Amanda really was. I liked her a lot. Jamie is no slouch but he takes some getting used to. Not that he’s a bad character, far from it. He has some hang-ups he needs to get over before he can start living life again, instead of just going through the motions. His “wake up” was quite entertaining.

My favorite crisis is when Amanda realized that the ‘details’ that make up the person she chose to be is a bit more complicated than she imagined. I laughed, but I also appreciated the author actually figuring things out, or at least had Amanda do the best that she could. I have often wonderful about the very things that caused the heroine to panic, and I was actually glad Ms. Guhrke tackled those issues. I even enjoyed how it was done. It’s a strong plus for the story.

My next favorite dilemma is Jamie’s reaction to his discovery. Poor guy was stretched like taffy, he didn’t know quite what to do. Oh, he had ideas, sexy ideas, but that didn’t solve the most important challenge, taming his two rambunctious, clever and determined young sons. I enjoyed watching the hero come to terms with what is most important in his life. It was rather heartwarming when he finally figured it out.

There was a fly in the ointment, so to speak. A dastardly villain from Amanda’s past shows up to do what bad guys do best – muck things up. Even this conflict was well handled by the author and I found myself cheering for the characters I’d come to adore, Amanda and Jamie, Owen and Collin.

The book has a great happy ever after ending that is so romantic and beautiful, I read it twice. Governess Gone Rogue is a wonderful story. It has heart, love, passion and humor. I happily recommend this book to all romance fans everywhere.

Just how much would you put your life in danger to take down a bad guy?

Truly a romantic suspense but interesting and a quick and fun read. Although there is some implicit sex in this book, I can’t say I did any blushing. That’s saying a lot for me since romance is not really my genre. Did it add to the story? Well, I’d say yes in this sense. You see, this is one of those plots where there are good guys and bad guys, people you want to be gone and others you want to stay side by side with forever. Add to this the thought that you will have to hide for the rest of your life. No matter how you try to change your location, your appearance, your work, your walk, the way you swing your arms, someone always seems to find you. Then add a really A-one security company and a former SEAL as a bodyguard. Can that help?

These were interesting characters, ones described well enough that you can picture them which always makes for a good read. It didn’t hurt to have a beautiful resort with sandy beaches in the middle of nowhere. Maybe it was mid-winter when I read this. Maybe the author is absolutely great at descriptive writing or I just needed to be at this beautiful, luxurious place. I think maybe it was both. Nonetheless, for this reader it was a suspenseful page-turner book and a great dreaming of vacation type book all rolled into one.

A Deadly Business is Book 3 in a 3-book series titled Vigilance. Desiree Holt has many books published and I can’t find even one that isn’t rated highly. Check them out.

This story captures hot chemistry between two old friends, or rather, friends in denial, who are greatly attracted to each other but won’t admit it at first. Laurel and Jack are brought together after several years in desperate and humorous circumstances. Right away, they both come across as real at the hands of an author skilled with characterization.

It’s rude-sounding banter, but not mean-spirited, and when they reflect on their childhood together, there are some cute moments. As time rolls along, and Laurel and Jack spend time together, strange things happen, unexpected feelings sneak in against their will. The chemistry between them is amazing, but those feelings get more complicated as they develop, but do Laurel and Jack feel the same way about each other? This makes for some great tension, and when things get more physical, they get really exciting. Will things take a turn for the romantic? Is depth possible between these two?

And just when everything seems perfect, something happens, threatening everything, and stirring up serious trouble, making the story more delicious with its suspense.

This is an enjoyable story of friendship and love that many readers will love.

I liked Deanna immediately. She’s interesting and snappy. She knows what she’s doing with those spirits and even when she’s not sure what’s going on, she’s on top of things.

Yes, there are a lot of characters, but it wasn’t hard to keep them sorted out. I liked the variety.

The mystery aspect of the story was great. There were twists and turns I didn’t see coming. The subplot is fascinating and more than a little scary. I needed to know how the story would turn out and what would happen next. Like I said above, I couldn’t put this book down.

If you want a book that’s sure to please, with a twist of mystery and lots of paranormal excitement, then this might be the book for you.

Only recently did I discover the first book in the Spare Heirs series and I found it quite fun, thrilling and entertaining. I believe there might be 2 more books in the series so I know what I’m getting myself for the perfect holiday read. Nothing like reading a good book to make a vacation perfect, right?

The Infamous Heir presented a very interesting premise starting off with a returning prodigal son which then proceeded to discover a murder, a plethora of intrigue, misplaced loyalty, unrequited love and plans going awry in spectacular fashion.

The scene at Gentleman Jack’s was quite steamy and delicious. The reason for overturning a tree or two is delightful and wicked, and the reasons why Ethan and Roselyn are perfect for each other were made clear by means of mud. It’s the little details that create the sense that the hero and heroine truly love each other. It’s those same details that cause a boatload of problems and what made this novel a treat to read.

As for the villains – one is made clear and is easy to figure out but as to the other, the author tricked me. I figured out who the other one was but I didn’t have even a hint as to how dastardly, twisted and demented a role the miscreant played. It was not until the end, when all the major players were on stage for the dramatic confrontation did I realize how clever Ms. Michaels played her hand. Great writing!

Historical romantic suspense fans are missing out if they haven’t discovered this book or this series. I feel so lucky to have found it! The Infamous Heir made this reader’s afternoon completely fly by. I had a wonderful time! I hope other readers find the same level of enjoyment I had when they pick up their own copy. I truly recommend reading it.
