Review:I received this book free from one of the book sites. I do not remember which one! This is my honest review.
I had difficulty getting into the story, at the beginning. Just as I was beginning to enjoy & engage with the characters, a gratuitous sexual scene popped up. There really was no need for it either. After skimming over that & reading further, I held some hope for the story.
The characters met again & are on the floor of a cottage in another gratuitous sex scene.

Review:this was a first for not only this book but for this author as well. The story was O.K. but I was expecting more from this author. It didn't get steamy until a little over half the book. If you like just a tiny little heat this is for you. I liked this story at near the almost end. It was hard for me to get into this story. Read more
Review:I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book. A well written story with many twist and turns. Once I started I could put it down. The chemistry between Gwen and Colt is smoking hot. Sarah J. Brooks is a great author. Read more
Review:I have just discovered Lauren Royal and am very satisfied with her style, description and pace of her books. Her characters are amusing and interaction is also great leading to my wanting to read the next story in the family vault! Read more
Review:Have you ever read a book where you've been so engaged in the story that you lost all concept of time?
Well, that was me reading this book.
It seemed like one minute I had just started reading it and then suddenly, it felt like 20 minutes had passed when in reality 4 hours had passed and I was at 86% of the story.
And what "a hell of a story" it was!
I tried to slow myself in reading to the end because I wanted to savour it as long as I could, but unfortunately, my curiosity got the ... Read more
Review:Unmasking Miss Appleby is my first book by Emily Larkin. Ms Larkin has impressed me with this fantastic story. This book had threads of drama, action, suspense, paranormal abilities, sizzle, humor and phenomenal, lovable characters weaved together. Think it can't be done? It can, and Ms Larkin not only did it, she did it well. I totally enjoyed this historical romance and look forward to reading more from Emily Larkin in the future. Unmasking Miss Appleby is book 1 of the Baleful Godmother... Read more
Review:I was extremely disappointed in this book. When I heard that Lisa Kleypas was writing a romance with Sebastian and Evie's son, I was thrilled and breathlessly waited in anticipation for its release.
Instead, she wasted him--and a huge literary opportunity to spotlight the Devil in Winter's son--in a mundane romance in which he was a supporting character. It should have been titled "Pandora in Spring".
I I would not have minded as much if it had been a interesting romance, but it wa... Read more
Review:Really loved Emma and Ash. They had fantastic chemistry and Emma's pet names for Ash made me laugh so much. If I had any critiques, it would be that I wasn't a fan of the Monster of Mayfair plot line.
Tessa Dare continues to be one of my favorite authors in historical romance.

Review:Excellent reading. This is the first of Ridley's books that I have read and I do believe I'm hooked. Very well written and I even enjoyed the fact that the heroine is probably someone I would truly not like even remotely in real life. Highly recommend it! Read more
Review:I am disappointed once again with Ms. Dare, after an excellent start; I thought Ms. Dare had come back with a very good read. Only to have it dwindle into a silly fairytale. The plot was flimsy, and only the sex scenes take it out of the children’s section of books.
I am of course very aware of the many 5 star ratings, so obviously most do not share my view. I will say this author is very talented in dialogue. She had wonderful characters with great stories but reduced them to well….a... Read more
