Mean Streak by Sandra Brown

Mean Streak is about Dr. Emory Charbonneau, a pediatrician from Atlanta who was written to be just a little too perfect. She’s a great doctor with a well-known, successful practice, married to a man who works in finance, who gives a lot to charity, and loves running. It’s running that takes her to the mountains of North Carolina, where she plans to run a half

Say You're Sorry by Karen Rose

I don’t think I’ve ever read a bad Karen Rose novel. Daisy Dawson is just walking home from her AA meeting, minding her own business, when she is grabbed by a masked man. Thankfully, her instincts and self-defense training kick in, and she is able to fight him off — but not before accidentally pulling a locket from around his neck that ends up being

I Can See You by Karen Rose

This story could have easily gone sideways — the plot involves a virtual world. I normally expect the virtual/technical parts of a plot like this to be really unbelievable,

The Maze by Catherine Coulter

I remember not liking the first book in this series, perhaps to the point that I didn’t even finish it, but decided I’ve give this one a shot. This one is better than the first (I actually finished it), and is just good enough that I’ll read another book in the series. This is far from the best romantic suspense series out there — the

January 22, 2021January 14, 2021 Jaime 0

This was a basic slow-burn, closed-door, contemporary romance. At the center of the story are Jolene and Tucker. Jolene has a lot of strong feelings and distrust around alcohol and people who drink, thanks to her mother and an ex-boyfriend (yet when given a choice, she works in a bar……..). Tucker has been widowed for two years after his seemingly angelic wife dies in a
