Contemporary Romance - All Lines Lead to Love
Rocky Mountain Angel - Vivian Arend This has some of my favorite sex scenes ever in a book. They're hot and sensual and a few were long but never boring. This is an emotional read. Also, there's a character that I personally wanted taken out. I've never had that kind of reaction to someone. I was very invested in this book and didn't want to put it down.
Hearts of Fire (Deadglass, #0.5) - Kira Brady Provides a nice history of the two groups who are fighting each other when the main series begins in the present day.
Hunting the Shadows - Alexia Reed I loved this book. I loved the darkness and the complexity. I enjoy reading books like this about once a month and this one was perfect for me.
Hidden Heat  - Leah Braemel There are some very sexy scenes, some emotional scenes, and one scene not involving the hero or heroine (happens to heroine's roommate) that might cause problems for some readers.
All He Ever Needed - Shannon Stacey The title is All He Ever Needed. I absolutely loved this book but I tend to love most of what Ms. Stacey writes.
Wolf Line - Vivian Arend Very cute story. I enjoyed it very much.

Reread: Feb 2013 - I think I love this story even more. It's still just as cute and a very enjoyable read.
The Witness - Nora Roberts This was my first Nora Roberts book and I think it was amazing. I loved the hero and heroine so much. The hero is just such a nice guy and the heroine is a computer geek so I can relate to her.

The Yard Sale

The Yard Sale - Patricia Ann Preston A very cute Southern story. You can feel and picture the characters while reading it. And as someone from the South, I can honestly say that there really are people out there just like the ones in this story. It was a quick, enjoyable read.
Love's Rhythm - Lexxie Couper 4.5 stars. Such an emotional book. I started it this morning and didn't want to go to bed without finishing it. I loved it.

The Governess Affair (Brothers Sinister, #0.5)

The Governess Affair (Brothers Sinister, #0.5) - Courtney Milan The story is phenomenal. I can't think of words to do it justice. I loved Hugo as a hero and enjoyed Serena as the heroine.

Bound in Sin (Bound, #3)

Bound in Sin (Bound, #3) - Cynthia Eden I loved this novella. I didn't realize it was the third one but it didn't matter that I read them out of order. This was the first of the three that I've read. The action was great and the story sucked me in right from the beginning.
Bound in Darkness - Cynthia Eden I'm really enjoying this vampire/werewolf series.

Twisted (Tracers, #5)

Twisted (Tracers, #5) - Laura Griffin This book is excellent. It easily goes down as one of my favorite romantic suspense books of all time. I loved everything about the book, both the suspense part and the romance.

I also love the fact that any woman who reads this book, can learn a very valuable self-defense lesson: if your instincts tell you there's danger, listen to them. You don't have to try to prove to a stranger that you're a good samaritan or even have to help someone out if you feel like there's something off or dangerous about a situation.

I've loved each of the Tracers series books and this one is a must read.
Under a Vampire Moon - Lynsay Sands 3.5 stars. Not my favorite but still enjoyable. I got tired of the pretend-Christian-is-gay routine. And like another reviewer said, it did get wrapped up very quickly in the end. Maybe if we'd been given a bit more insight about Robert (the ex) sooner, I could've sympathized with Caro's problem with younger men.

The Duke's Perfect Wife (Highland Pleasures, #4)

The Duke's Perfect Wife (Highland Pleasures, #4) - Jennifer Ashley I've never read 3 historical romances in a row before, but I did this week. I loved Hart's book finishing up the series. Excellent series.
The Many Sins of Lord Cameron - Jennifer Ashley The first third of this book was a little slow for me to get into. It may have been because of other things going on in real life. However, the second half of the book was so incredible, I didn't want to stop reading. I loved the story. Might even be 4.5 stars.
