Long, Hot Texas Summer
by Carolyn Brown
"proof positive you are never too old to fall in love"
Posted September 27, 2014
In LONG HOT TEXAS SUMMER Carolyn Brown truly gives us a
visual look at life on a working ranch. Sure it's a
romance
novel so there is lots of love in the air. But there is
also
some stuff that is rather pungent and Brown makes sure we
get Read more...
One in a Million

Sincerely ONE IN A MILLION by Jill Shalvis should come
with a warning -- definitely addictive -- do not expect to

humor, heart breaking reality checks, enviable
friendships and small town charm. It's difficult to be
private in a small Read more...

by Beth Andrews
"Andrews makes looking for love a lot of fun"
Posted September 26, 2014
Love stories are usually dreamy and sexy and SMALL-TOWN
REDEMPTION by Beth Andrews is no exception to that rule.
But
then Andrews decides to expand that definition to show
that
everyone needs someone to love and sometimes that someone
is
the last person you expect to fill that position Read more...

Then Came You
by Jill Shalvis
"sometimes rules are just made to be broken"
Posted September 24, 2014
They say animals are the best judges of character and
Jill Shalvis uses this statement or belief to prove a
point in THEN CAME YOU. People that devote their lives

In Your Dreams
by Kristan Higgins
"beauty is in the eye of the beholder"
Posted September 21, 2014
There's just something about a Kristan Higgins book. It
could be her amazing gift of gab which is evident in the
catchy dialog. It could be her romantic soul equally
evident
in her development of flawed, imperfect characters who
look
for love despite the odds. Hey it could even Read more...
Make-Believe Wedding
by Sarah Mayberry
"A Great Wedding Giveaway Novella"
Posted September 21, 2014
The only thing disappointing in THE MAKE-BELIEVE WEDDING
is
its size -- which actually qualifies as a novella. Sarah
Mayberry always writes a delightful story that just
inspires
the reader to smile and walk away a very satisfied
customer.
MAKE-BELIEVE WEDDING certainly did make me smile and at
times Read more...

Posted August 25, 2014
So hard to decide which Susan Elizabeth Phillips story is my
favorite -- it would be like pitting one good friend against
another. My love affair with Phillips -- AKA SEP to her fans
-- started with DREAM A LITTLE DREAM -- funny how we all
remember our first loves. Then it escalated into Read more...
How To Marry A Cowboy
by Carolyn Brown
"instructions are included"
Posted August 24, 2014
Dialog is Carolyn Brown's strong suit -- as gifted an author
as you can imagine with the gift of gab -- you can imagine
her eyes smiling with the merriment and mirth she brings to
each page. HOW TO MARRY A COWBOY is a bit of a departure for
Brown whose Read more...

Debby Ware is a woman of my own heart. She proves in HOLIDAY
HATS FOR BABIES that we shouldn't take everything so

Invincible
by Diana Palmer
"powerful guy meets his match"
Posted July 30, 2014
The bigger they are the harder they fall. It's one of Diana
Palmer's trademarks and as a longtime fan it's the element
that draws you in and holds tight. Diana Palmer is a western
romantic at heart and with
INVINCIBLE she adds quite few lighthearted moments. Her Read more...

I am a knitter and crocheter at heart but I've done several
needlepoint projects too. I'm proud of all the costumes and
linen items made on my trusty sewing machine but candidly
I've always wanted to quilt. Not sure I would ever progress

Comfort Crocheted Afghans
by Norah Gaughan, Margery Winter
"short and sweet three beautiful patterns"
Posted June 27, 2014
First let me qualify my review to say that this is a sampler
showcase of three afghan projects some that will appear in
