HaBO: HaBO from a HaBO

This HaBO comes from Emily, who wants to find this book: I’m looking for a book that I think was a HABO – maybe five years ago? Not recently, and it might have only been something discussed in the comments of a post, because I have searching all the keywords I remember on the site and haven’t found it. What I remember is that it was a category romance from the 80s or 90s and … Continue reading HaBO: HaBO from a HaBO

Second Chances in New Port Stephen by TJ Alexander

Second Chances in New Port Stephen

Second Chances in New Port Stephen is a delightful second-chance romance between two men in their forties who reconnect over the Christmas holidays. It’s not overly cutesy, and although a lot of the plot involves my least favorite trope (Poor Communication) and one of the characters is a little too self-centered for my tastes, I really enjoyed this book. Eli and Nick grew up in Florida together and dated in high school, long before Eli … Continue reading Second Chances in New Port Stephen by TJ Alexander

The Marquis Who Musn’t by Courtney Milan

The Marquis Who Mustn’t

At this point we’ve reviewed so many Courtney Milan books on this site that the reviews are kind of a foregone conclusion – you know the book is going to get a good grade, the question is just – how good? My answer for The Marquis Who Mustn’t is: Very Good, especially if you are in the mood for pure heartwarming material. Evil is vanquished. Wrongs are righted. Apologies are made. And of course, love … Continue reading The Marquis Who Musn’t by Courtney Milan

Book Review

Sweeten the Deal by Katie Shepard

Sweeten the Deal

Sweeten the Deal is a contemporary romance that flips the usual financial conventions around. In this book the heroine is a decade younger than the hero, but she’s also a millionaire who hires him to be her companion. Typically the person with the financial power in contemporary romances is the hero and the older character, not vice versa. I picked up the book because I was intrigued by that premise, but what I found I … Continue reading Sweeten the Deal by Katie Shepard
