Moonlight in Odessa by Janet Skeslien Charles
Moonlight in Odessa is the first novel by Janet Skeslien Charles, and a sensational one at that! It’s truly addicting, once you start it, you’ll probably breeze through it. The main character in this book is Daria—the oldest 23-year-old you’ll ever meet. Growing up in modern, post-perestroika Ukraine, Daria is…

Beach Girls by Luanne Rice
I’ve never read Luanne Rice before Beach Girls. I’m glad I did though, because now she’s one of my favorite contemporary romance authors! In the summer of 1976, three teenage girls dub themselves the “Beach Girls” and vow they’ll always be close. Now, in present day, Emma Kilvert, one of…

Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton
Guilty Pleasures is the 1st book in the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton. It was okay, but not great. A little outdated.

Covet: A Novel of the Fallen Angels by J.R. Ward
Covet is the 1st book in the Fallen Angels series by J.R. Ward. Its front cover makes Covet look like a cheesy, sappy bodice-ripper romance. But it’s far classier than the cover makes it out to be, so maybe just this once, don’t judge a book by its cover! I…

Rocky Mountain Fugitive by Ann Voss Peterson
I bought a bundle of Harlequin Intrigue novels in bulk a little while ago. I like reading these after finishing something intense, like a horror or thriller. These series are short, cute, light, and funny. In Rocky Mountain Fugitive, an estranged couple is unexpectedly reunited when their local sheriff frames…

In the Manor With the Millionaire by Cassie Miles
In The Manor With The Millionaire is one of many romance novels by Cassie Miles, a pseudonym for Kay Bergstrom. This novel is part of the Curse of Raven’s Cliff Harlequin Intrigue series. This book’s title reminds me of the board game Clue. In this one, a nerdy and beautiful…

Rule of Three by Kelly Jamieson
Kelly Jamieson may be the best erotic romance author I’ve ever read. Rule of Three is FANTASTIC and I don’t even like this genre. Also, I think this is Hayden Panettiere on the cover, which is funny. Rule of Three is the 1st book in the Rule of Three erotica…
