Improper Relations

Improper Relations by Juliana Ross
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked the this erotic novella. Hannah is definitely a woman of her times, not a virgin (since she was married), but still very much an innocent. In those times woman were taught that having sex was a duty, not something that is enjoyable to women.

Along comes Leo and shatters this belief, showing her what relations between a man and woman can really be like.

The only thing that I wish is that when the time came she would have told that witch Aunt Augusta a piece of her mind.

Bared to You

Bared to You by Sylvia Day
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

1st I want to say that I loved this book. I could barely make myself put it down when I had to do other things like sleep. Sylvia Day has really wrote a book that I feel is really profound. It's the most real and raw look into these people's lives.

I feel like they could be anyone that I know and that is what made me love it.

I also loved the fact that it didn't shy away from the physical and emotional abuse that Gideon and Eva went through. Also, that they have the most honest relationship that I have every seen or read about. They are both upfront about the insecurities that they have and that is rare in fiction as well as life. I can't wait to see how this is going to play out.

Tempted by her Innocent Kiss

Tempted by Her Innocent Kiss by Maya Banks

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I liked this book, which is no surprise because I have enjoyed all of Maya Banks books so far. I also loved that there is a story by Brenda Jackson at the end. At least in the copy that I read.

Tempted is the 3rd book in the Pregnancy & Passion series. It was so nice to finally see Devon's love story. I like him and Ashley together a lot. You can tell from the very beginning that he loves her, because actions speaks louder than words. He is just to busy worrying about how and why they got together instead of what he feels about her now.

I loved that Maya Banks made Ashley confident,smart, and kindhearted. Devon would have never been able to fall in love with her otherwise.

Secrets of an Accidental Duchess

Secrets of an Accidental Duchess by Jennifer Haymore

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I started reading this book about a month ago, but that's not really true. I was planning to start reading it a month ago, but other books got in the way. Now I hate that I put it off so long. I actually started it(for real this time)the day before yesterday.

When I first started reading this book I didn't know that it was part of a series. I now have to go back and read the one before this one.

I loved this story. It had enough drama and romance to make any reader want to give it a go. It also had one of the vilest villains that I have ever seen in a historical romance. I also loved that it dealt with an issue that I have never seen approached in any other historical romance that I have ever read. I don't want to give it away, but it was definitely going on at the time and still is today.

Jennifer Haymore is now an author that I will assuredly be reading from this moment on.

How to Woo a Reluctant Lady

How to Woo a Reluctant Lady by Sabrina Jeffries

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Anyone who knows me well, knows that I am a huge Sabrina Jeffries fan. She always does such a fantastic job on her books that I am always waiting with bated breath for the next. This book is no exception.

I have love all of the Hellions since the very beginning and am so glad that this particular one(Lady Minerva Sharpe) ended up with Giles Masters. These two are a match made in Heaven, but isn't it always that way with Sabrina books. She knows exactly which characters have the most chemistry and how to make their coming together believable and not forced. I love the fact that she never changes them to fit each other they just get to be who we fell in love with when we first "met" them.

I am probably a terrible reviewer because it is hard for me to review a book without giving too much away, so I will say if you haven't already start from the first book in the series, The Truth about Lord Stoneville, and continue on from there.

If you are a fan you will love to get a little glimpse of some characters from the past. Another thing I love about her books, it is believable that these events are really happened because she incorporates the characters from her previous series when the events are going on in the same time period.

Read the book(s) you will not regret it.

Simply Sexual (House of Pleasure book 1)

Simply Sexual by Kate Pearce

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


As you can see from the 5 stars, I loved this book. Sometimes you find an erotic book that has to much sex in places that you feel sex should not be. Well not this book the sex was believable and it didn't feel forced. Especially after knowing our hero Valentin's background. I am always saying that the hero has met his match, and I will say it again in this instant also. They were perfectly matched. Sara had the right amount of sexual curiosity and intelligence to make her Val's equal in every way in and outside of the bedroom.

One thing is for sure while I was reading the book the descriptions, which very detailed when needed, definitely gave me some ideas.

If you love hot,steamy, or just plain erotic you will love this book. Kate Pearce is superb, and as I said in another review about a story she wrote, I will definitely be coming back for more.

Lords of Passion

Lords of Passion by Virginia Henley

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I am usually all over historical romance, but this book left something to be desired. First of all it's an anthology, so not all the stories are bad. Well, none of them are really bad, or else I would have stopped reading, just not to my liking.

There are 3 stories in this book: Beauty and the Brute by Virginia Henley, How to Seduce a Wife by Kate Pearce, and Not Quite a Courtesan by Maggie Robinson.

I will just say that my favorite out of the 3 was How to Seduce a Wife by Kate Pearce. This is the first book I have read by either author and for this one at least it will not be my last. As a matter of fact the next book that I will be talking about will be another by Ms. Pearce.

Anyway, I loved this story. It was hot, steamy, and romantic. I loved that Louisa was so outspoken and let her man know that he was not pleasing her in bed. Not many women then or even today or bold enough to do that. Rather you like the book or not it is worth it just to read this story alone.

My next fav is Not Quite a Courtesan by Maggie Robinson. It wasn't as steamy but it was still good. Prudence is so much like what you expect a proper English girl to be like, but it was wonderful to see her come out of her shell.

My least fav of course is Beauty and the Brute by Virginia Henley. Sorry Henley fans but this just didn't do it for me. It had nothing at all to do with the plot, that was actually okay. I loved the premise of the story, but it was the wording or something that I just can't put my hands on that I didn't like. I also hated the fact that Charles didn't pay Sarah any attention until he notice how beautiful she had become and then instantly it was love. I was hoping that something would make her less attractive in his eyes so that he could proved that he loved her for more than her beauty.

I will not be reading anymore books by this author, unless someone recommends something by her that doesn't sound anything like I just described.

I am giving this 4/5 stars just because the other two stories are worth the time and effort to read this book. As to the other you will have to judge for yourself.
