Rise by Karina Bliss
I loved What the Librarian Did. I loved the book and its hero enough to name a then GR shelf after him. I loved the heroine’s strength and how the story subtly undermined one of the most irritating romance tropes:… Read more »
When A Stranger Loves Me by Julianne MacLean
(I’m tired of writing DNF reviews and tired of hating everything but it’s one of those weeks. Instead of running no content today I thought I’d bring back a post from one of my now-deleted former blogs. Welcome to 2009.) Julianne… Read more »

While it had a great premise finishing this book was an absolute slog. Fast Forward is meant for the relative who sends you life affirming cartoons about aging as she sips from her Maxine mug. I wanted Big and I got… Read more »
Flirting With The Camera by Ros Clarke
A romance novella with a plus-size model and by plus-size we mean real life plus-size, not fashion world plus-size? I’m sold. When can I read the book? The second I win it from a BookLikes giveaway it appears. Writing the… Read more »
