On her way to be with her betrothed, Lilith Somerset isn’t exactly rushing to enter into the arranged marriage. But she is pushed from the frying pan into the fire when she is kidnapped by Dominic Rainier. Dominic hates having to kidnap Lilith and impregnate her to end the curse that covers his land, but he sees no other choice. What does the future hold for Lilith and Dominic after this most unsettling beginning?

The publisher lists this July 2005 reissue as having “forced seduction” but I must respectfully disagree and call it for what it is - rape. Although no physical force was used, there was no consent (in fact a drug was used on Lilith, but I don’t know why it didn’t affect him) and this influenced me and my view on the story and the characters. So much so that I didn’t care if the curse was lifted, that Dominic felt guilty or even if Lilith forgave Dominic. Don’t be tempted... Read More

The past meets the present as desire flares into being when single parent/teacher Gloria Sanders runs into gym co-owner Landon Barnes. Although he is now her personal trainer, fourteen years ago she used to be his tutor, and Gloria finds it a little awkward to be around Landon, particularly as he sees her when she’s most vulnerable.

But Landon refuses to let Gloria give up on him helping her and he refuses to allow her to ignore the attraction that sizzles between them. Landon used to have a high school crush on Gloria, but when he sees her again after so many years, he realizes that it has matured into real love. Now he has to get Gloria all worked up – over him!

This is a cute love-story that clears the palate. While there’s nothing wrong with paranormal loving, ex-lover stalking or even time-stream jumping, sometimes you just want an old-fashioned boy-meets-girl-and-falls-in-love ... Read More

Londoner Selene Ferrell has come to Wales to appraise a rare artifact owned by the sexy, yet mysterious Anthony Mager. Anthony may be a mystery to Selene, but he has known, and loved, Selene for over five thousand years. But this immortal, who has been without his human soul mate for the past three hundred years, has finally tracked Selene down and Anthony will not willingly let her go.

KyAnn Waters has weaved an interesting twist on a tale about immortals with humans in Eternal Rapture. I was touched by Anthony’s dedication to finding and then keeping safe his soul mate, while reminding her of all they had; Selene is one very lucky woman. And I enjoyed watching Selene blossom from a very conservative, and at times, awkward woman into a woman comfortable with her own sexuality. The two of them together as a couple, both in the past and present, are explosive. As this is the first in the... Read More

Josie Weston loves her job, is friends with her boss, and can’t stand her boss’s brother, Forrest Jankowski. Yes, he’s good looking, but he’s blocking her plans, so he’s gotta go. But Forrest has his own plans, and they include her in his life, so she’s gotta give. When a rock meets a hard place, who will give way first?

In the Cards, the sequel to Sugar and Spice, is a fun read filled with a sassy sista, a charming clairvoyant and a sicko stalker who’s after Josie. The stalking adds an edge to the story, but the best part of In the Cards is the growing relationship between Josie and Forrest, with all the bumps and pains, love and joy. I typically enjoy Liz Andrews’ book and like the title says, me liking this one was In the Cards.
