Robin Schone ~ "Gabriel's Woman"

I bought "Gabriel’s Woman" as a 2 for 1 deal when I got “The Lover”. My reading OCD did not help in this matter, so I was unable to stop myself from the mental torture of finishing this harrowing saga.

Robin Schone ~ The Lover



I know people love the books this author writes.
She sure writes with a passion, I can tell you that! Her syntax is good and she has no visible flaws in her text. She does not, like so many of the new authors, sound like a child trying to write. But...Oh and what a but that is!...her books sound so pretentious and cocky - it actually gets weird.

Sophie Renwick ~ "Hot in Here"

Hot in Here
A miss... HUGE miss!

Here goes...
Bryce is a chef with some reputation trouble, caused by his “I like my women the way I like my recipes: fast, easy and full of variety.” blabber, that made his fans turn their backs on him. He needs a U-turn in his career, so he calls his friend Jenna - PR girl - to make a strategy. The same Jenna - plain Jane, shy and insecure - that's in love with him for ten years... ever since she spotted him in school cafeteria, and dumped a tray of meat loaf and mac and cheese in his lap.

Eileen Dreyer ~ "Never a Gentleman"

I have these friends you see…these online friends… and we are all incognito because we have a terrible secret. A terrible BIG secret that makes others point us out if we slip up.
But I will share it with you. Yes, I will. The time has come to come out of my closet…!

I…gasp…I…ehm. Wait. Give me a second. I will make it. Just a second.
Hm. Ehmmm. I…read cheating hero books.
There! I said it.

Now, now. Don’t get in a tizzy! I don’t like cheater books.
But I go to a library, or on a thread, see somebody talking about cheater books, raving, ranting…and I have to read it.
And rant and rave about it? No. Well, yes, but I primarily read it in order to find the holy grail of cheater books - a cheating that had a solid explanation and a  good reason to be forgiven.
Is it really necessary for me to say that I still haven’t found this mythical book?

Anne Mather ~ "Beware The Beast"

Beware The Beast

How shall I put this... ? Let's try it this way:
If you have any (and by any I mean one) even partially smart cell in your brain, you will not read this book. Unless, of course, you wish to write an amusing review, in which case I'll applaud your effort and gladly read it myself.

Anyway, here's what I have to say...
