The Caves of Steel (R. Daneel Olivaw, Book 1)
The Caves of Steel (R. Daneel Olivaw, Book 1)

Review:As always Asimov writes a terrific story. What was surprising is the similarity to today. The Medievalists in many ways are similar to those who today would like to return to the past, one they see through rose-colored glasses. The Spacers want them to reach for a new reality and enjoy a brighter future. The task is convincing those that live in the past to learn to take charge of their destiny and join the modern world's journey to the future! Read more

The Naked Sun (The Robot Series)
The Naked Sun (The Robot Series)

Review:Asimov wrote this novel to introduce life with robots and stumbled into a commentary on life when social media is taken to the extreme. And this was written before the internet was on the technology horizon. I have enjoyed everything I have read by this author and found this novel to be particularly compelling.

Saving Her

Review:R.R. Banks killed the game with this one and I can't wait to see where he goes next..regardless, I know I'm going along for the ride! Caylee is a beautiful woman with an indomitable spirit and so much courage and Eric is a veteran and a doctor who finds her in her greatest time of need. This book deals with what it's like to be an unwilling part of a cult and all that that entails. But it's so much more than that. It's a book about love, trust and overcoming whatever obstacles life has placed in... Read more

Say Yes to the Marquess: Castles Ever After
Say Yes to the Marquess: Castles Ever After

Review:I LOVED this book! Rafe and Clio are brilliant together. They have such chemistry between them.

Rafe was such a wonderful hero. He is rough and tough on the outside but soft and sweet on the inside. And Clio is just sweet - I really liked her, she is sweet without being a doormat, caring without being overbearing and kind without being condescending. She was a doormat for eight long years and has finally realized her own worth.

This entire book was a joy to read. I laughed, I s... Read more

In this first book of the Bluestocking Brides Series we meet Amelia Chadwick and Nicholas Wentword. Amelia is the oldest of the Chadwick sisters, The “responsible” one.

A Duke in Shining Armor: Difficult Dukes
A Duke in Shining Armor: Difficult Dukes

Review:Not enough premise for a relationship- the groom's best friend chases after his fiance to try to get her back to the wedding. And of course, along the way, both parties start having more romantic feeling towards each other ( no surprise there). I couldn't really see a reason for these 2 to come together when the bride should of spent more time w/ her fiance, instead of his best friend. Then mayb she wouldn't have felt compelled to flee.

The Hellion (Wicked Wallflowers Book 1)
The Hellion (Wicked Wallflowers Book 1)

Review:This is the first book in a new series from the Sinful Brides Collection. You can start with it but I would recommend you to at least start with book one of the Sinful Brides to fully comprehend all the involved characters. Christi has the most amazing talent to connecting each of her series that she has written. In starting from the very first book she wrote, she has developed a lifetime of amazing and wonderful stories that you can not wait to start and where you dread for it to end. You beco... Read more

Stone Devil Duke: A Hold Your Breath Novel
Stone Devil Duke: A Hold Your Breath Novel

Review:I enjoyed this book so much that I finished in one sitting. None of the normal romance ridiculousness of each of the lovers lying to one another about their true feelings. They were honest and strait forward with one another the whole time. And the storyline was great. I laughed and cried and I was terrified all in the same book! I can't wait to read the next in the series! Read more
