Believe and Beauty and the Duke

I have a lot of books on my nightstand that I am in the process of reading. So I am hoping to have a bunch of reviews up soon.!!! So let the reviewing begin!

Today I am doing reviews on Victoria Alexander's Believe and melody Thomas' Beauty and the Duke.

I am a huge Victoria Alexander fan. Her novel Believe is not a disappointment. I thought it was a magical story...pun intended. This is a time travel romace...which i love. The heronie, Tessa gets transported back to Camelot and has to help Galahad on his quest for the grail. The characters are great and there is a lot of humor in the story as well. She does a wonderful job of weaving her story together with the Arthur legend. Now the cover may be deceiving and it came out around christmas. It's complicated, but it's not a Christmas story...but I was not disappointed the story was delightful. i would highly recommend any of this author's books!

Next up is Melody Thomas' Beauty and the Duke. I really enjoyed this book as well. it was a fun read. The characters where interesting and the plot was original. I liked the way the characters interacted and how they all fit together. It was a very fun book. Some of the scene's were not writen as well as they could have been, but for the most part those are just the sex scenes, which does not have a lot of weight in this instance. So that flaw was not that a big deal. But i would recommend this book as well. I will be reading more of this author. This is the first of her books I have read. But her heronine is one of the first palentolisgists trying to have a career in science...in 1840...she is delightful!

Next time I am planning on doing a write up on Sabrina Jefferies. I just finished The Truth about Lord Stoneville. Currently I am reading Margo Maguire's Taken by the Laird
