A Wicked Lord at the Wedding and The Earl Claims His Wife

Well there seems to be a lot of news about e-readers out right there. Barnes and Noble is coming out with there own version. So coming up I will do research on a couple of different types and post my findings later this week or next week.

I have been watching the T.V show Bones lately that is based ooff the life and books of Kathy Reiches. I have been meaning to read her books, so I will be picking up the her first book soon. I am really loving this tv show and have finished season 1.

Also on Friday the movie the Vampire's Assistant comes out which is based upon a trilogy of books. This book is also represented at Univerals Halloween Horror Night in it's own scare zone, which is pretty fun.

Today I will be discussing two books. Then I will be caught up with my resent reading.

First up us A Wicked Lord at the Wedding by Jillian Hunter. Now I am a big fan of Jillian Hunter. I loved her Boscastle sibling series. Which I will discuss at a later date. This book is highley entertaining and the characters are delightful. It is also a bit of a treat that the male protagonist, Sabastien, is a Boscastle cousin. So if you are familiar with her other work, it is a branch of the same family. Which I always find exciting and love to see characters pop up or even to be mentioned in other stories. But this story is fast paced and fresh. The female protagonist, Eleanor, is an interesting character who is an excellent match for her husband. I thought the plot was strong and the characters interesting. I would recommend this book, it is a very fun read.

Next up is an author that I am always excited to read and that is The Earl Claims His Wife by Cathy Maxwell. I actually met Cathy Maxwell at a Romace convention earlier this year and she was delightful. I was thriller to meet her. This recent novel of hers is very good. And is actually simialar to the last book I just wrote about, in that is about an absantee hunsband coming back into the picture. But this is also a fast paced story, with actually little danger. Wile the previous book has more action this has a lot of heart. This story is a true testament of different types of love. I would highly recommend this book. Gillian is a fantastic character, she is strong and fiery and I loved her resilance. You also really feel for her husband Brian. I think it is a good read and would highly recommend it.

Well that is all for now. Currently I am reading Sharp Edges by Jayne Anne Krentz.

My Lord and Spymaster, Cherish, and Santa in a Stetson

I will be reviewing and discussing 3 books in this blog. yah!!

First up is My Lord and Spymaster by Joanna Bourne. I found this story very original and fun. This story is a fast paced adventure with very strong and fun characters. I was actually suprised at how much I really enjoyed this book. I love when you get really involved in the characters and care what happens to them. Jess who is the female protagonist is a fantastic character. She is a very different sort of character and spunky and fiery. Sabastian is also a wonderful character. They compliment each other very well.

The next book is Cherish by Catherine Anderson. This was a fantastic book. I would highly reccomend it to anyone. It deals with the dirreiculty of witnessing a tramatic stituation and how shock can occur and the effects it has on the person themselves and the ones around them. Rebecca and Race are amazing characters who you truely learn to love and want the best for. Now Catherine Anderson is one of my favorite all time romance authors. If you are looking for an excellent read anything with her name on it is worth your time. This story takes place in Colorado area in 1810. The climate and ruffians are only a few of the obsticles delt with. This is an amazing book and you should read it. It is a testament of true love and overcoming incredible odds.

The next book is Janet Dailey's book Santa in a Stetson. Now I am going to say it is a cute story. A bit flat, but cute. I will worn you it has nothing to do with christmas. The last chapter takes place around christmas but that is all. The back of the book is not what the book is about and is misleading. I have never been more confused or disappointed. I love Christmas stories, the feel, the setting, and you don't get that. The title also makes no sense to the story. But it is a cute story and actually worth reading, just don't ecpect it to be what it isn;t and you'll be fine. The characters are interesting, but a there was something about the story that seemed a bit off, and i can't put my finger on it. but it is a nice quick read.

Right now i am reading another of my favorite authors. I am reading The Earl Claims His Wife by Cathy Maxwell.  Happy Reading
