RECOMMENDED: A Lady Awakened by Cecilia Grant is $1.99! This is a Kindle Daily Deal and is bring price-matched. This book is often recommended in terms a sex-positive heroine. However, other readers found the heroine’s view of sex to be rather unromantic. Have you read this one?

Ashwin by Kit Rocha is 99c! This is the first book in their spin-off Gideon’s Riders series and it’s not necessary to have finished the Beyond series to jump into this one. My complaints for this romance were that there was a lot given to introducing the large cast of characters. I still enjoyed the central couple and the secondary characters made me excited for future books.

I thought this was going to be a light month, but nope. New Nora Roberts! The start to a new series by Theresa Romain! Hide those wallets and tell us what’s on your to-buy list this month!
RECOMMENDED: Frisk Me by Lauren Layne is 99c! I reviewed this book a few months ago and I obviously enjoyed it, seeing as how I gave it an A grade:
That being said, I really loved this book. It’s a nice break from the insta-love/lust that I’ve been reading lately, and I appreciated that the romance was the payoff of the book, rather than it being the driving force to deal with outside, external issues. This is a slow romance, too. No wham, bam, thank you ma’ams here. And admittedly, I spent a good portion of the book grinning like an idiot on the subway. I’ll give it to Layne; she can write some great dialogue.

I grabbed this book when the sign-ups came out because I’ve enjoyed Ms. Cullinan’s writing in the past—her story Let it Snow is something I’ve reread a couple of times, even though I don’t generally reread things. It’s a sweet, pretty low-angst Christmas story with interesting characters, and I really enjoyed the Minnesota backwoods setting. Fever Pitch didn’t work quite as well for me, but I still found it eminently readable and gobbled it up. … Continue reading Fever Pitch by Heidi Cullinan →
Before I start this review, let me make it clear that I am not a music person. I can’t play an instrument, I can’t read notes, I just know what I like. As a result, a lot of the scenes that used music as the catalyst for expressing emotions didn’t ring the bell with me that they might with someone who knows more about the subject. When I saw the title, I thought Fever Pitch … Continue reading Fever Pitch by Heidi Cullinan →
