"What are you reading August 1-7"
 
   Wow! Can't believe no one has started this yet

This morning, I finished Kristan Higgins newest, All I Ever Wanted...very good! I always sort of dread starting her books, partly because they are written in first person (I prefer to get the hero's POV) and because she writes heroines that usually do something painfully embarrassing. But one once I start reading, I remember why she is sooo good...her heroines are delightfully REAL, not perfect women that make you feel inadequate, but rather women you'd know & befriend in real life. And KH writes first person POV books so well, she's one of the few authors that I will autobuy despite this!!

I just started Lisa Marie Rice's newest book, Into the Crossfire. Also I've heard the story is very much like Midnight Man, since I loved MM, I don't think I'll mind in the least

Also this week, I hope to start Suzanne Brockmann's newest, Infamous. Sort of hesitating about this one, though I love SB, because I've heard some mixed remixed reviews about this one.

So...what are you reading this week?!?!

In response to message #0
 
   I'll be starting this either tonight or tomorrow. I need a nice light read after the complicated plot and violence of Spandau Phoenix by Greg Iles. Besides, it's been too long since I've read anything by J.C. This is an older book from 1993, but I'm sure I'll enjoy it.

Those were my favorites as well and Anyone But You. Those were pretty much it. I read a few others, but they didn't click as much as those titles.

I'm reading A Little Bit Wicked. So far I'm enjoying it a lot. I'm technically still reading The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, but I need something light. I'll go back to Hornet's Nest. I also have to pick up Eat, Pray, Love for book club. We're going to discuss and then see the movie.

   I haven't started this but as soon as I close the computer down i will. Want a break inbetween the JR Ward vampire books, just to retain my balance!!

This is a first in a series. Looks sort of fantasy, which I quite like. And then again I guess vampires are fantasy too of a different kind.

   Finished Jo Goodman's One Forbidden Evening and it was very good. i don't think i have seen her mentioned on this BB. She writes historical romances. I ordered the follow-up to this book.

Now i continued J D Robb's Visions in Death which i had started way way back but had then put aside when i went through a reading slump.

   Sandra Brown is one of my favorites. If you continue reading her books, you'll see as the years pass that she gets into romantic suspense rather than just straight romance, and I actually like the suspenseful ones better. Have fun discovering a new to you author.

   I loved Sandra Brown books from the '90s. She had a great balance of suspense and romance. Her earlier ones are light reads, heavy on the romance. Her newer stuff doesn't appeal to me as much anymore, but I still do like to read them, maybe not keep them on my keeper shelf

I really enjoyed this book. So tempted to download Laid Bare, but it's over my budget--expensive. So, I'll wait and try and get it from my library, if my will-power holds out.

14. "SB Infamous"
In response to message #0
 
   I started this book a few days and I am enjoying it. It took me a bit to get used to the first person viewpoint. Several characters have shades of Sam, Alyssa, Jules and Robin in my opinion.

It takes place in current day with flashbacks to the 1800s. There is a bit of a paranormal aspect in it for me in regard to the first person viewpoint. I don't want to say more and ruin it for those of you planning on reading it. But give it a try.

In response to message #20
 
I don't quite understand the title yet, but I am loving this book, which is really exciting because it's part of a series which gets really great reviews at Romantic Times, and it also means I'll have a fairly long backlist of new books to read. Yay!

Here's a description of the book:

Violet Redmond's family and fortune might be formidable and her beauty and wit matchless—but her infamous flare for mischief keeps all but the most lionhearted suitors at bay. Only Violet knows what will assuage her restlessness: a man who doesn't bore her to tears, and a clue to the fate of her missing brother. She never dreamed she'd find both with a man whose own pedigree is far from impeccable.

"Savage" is what the women of the ton whisper about the newly styled Earl of Ardmay—albeit with shivers of pleasure. Born an English bastard, raised on the high seas, he's on a mission to capture a notorious pirate for vengeance. But while Violet's belief in her brother's innocence maddens him, her courage awes him . . . and her sensuality finally undoes him. Now the man who once lost everything and the girl who has everything to lose are bound by a passion that could either end in betrayal . . . or become everything they ever dreamed.

In response to message #0
 
   While on the plane ride to Orlando I started A Summer in Sonoma by Robyn Carr and was luck to meet her and she signed my book also. I just could not put the book down --it was a really terrific book that is a stand alone and not related to her Virgin River Series. I thought it was a great read.

Next up is a new to me author Shiloh Walker.

   Kate -she sat with us when we met SEP and she was so nice.Then I talked to her at the signing again.

I started the book on the plane down and just couldn't put it down. I hope you feel the same when you read it.

   I just finished it and I really like the messages she communicated without being the least bit preachy. It's very different from the Virgen River series and I like both genres.

In response to message #0
 
   I finally finished Suzanne Enoch's Flirting with Danger and am so in love with Rick this second time around. Looking forward to finally reading the rest of the series, now that I've finally re-read the first book. Luckily, I had it with me in Orlando and I got it signed by SE

Laura, Lissette (seppie-to-be), and I listened to the abriged version of Can You Keep A Secret by Sophia Kinsella and LOVED it. I usually hate chick lit, but this was a great audio read. I usually prefer reading a book first before doing the audio, so this was the first time I did the audio first. Since we heard the abrigded version, I must get my PB copy back from my SIL and read the whole thing for myself.

Started Kristin Higgin's The Next Best Thing, which was bought at the RWA's literacy signing. So far so good. I know a lot of people had issues with the heroine getting together with her BIL, but I'm loving the dynamics between the hero, heroine, and her dead husband.

   Amal, I have read very few chick lit books because they are not my preferred genre but I can safely say that CAn You Keep A Secret is one of my favourite books. I read the book before listening to the audio and i thorooughly enjoyed the audio too. Its a keeper for me. And i am not a Shopaholic books fan so I consider myself not biased in SK's favour

   The Shopaholic series did not work for me either. I tried my very best to read past chapter 1 of the first book and just couldn't get through it. But CYKAS was fantastic. Sigh, I have the biggest crush on Jack Harper, lol. Him and Rick Addison

   I loved my re-read of Suzanne Enoch’s Flirting with Danger. Loved this book a whole lot more the second time around. The banter between Rick and Sam is probably one of the best I’ve ever read. I’ll even admit that I caught myself squirming in my seat at Charlotte Douglas International Airport, cause it was just that steamy I highly recommend you read it Luci. From what I heard the rest of the series is just as good.

I just finished An Echo in the Bone last night...ah I didn't like all the stuff that got 'hanging'!! Now how long before the next one comes out??

I started Nora Roberts The Search last night, so far it is good. I think I'm going to like this one by her.

Glad to hear you are enjoying the search. My sister wants to listen to that so she will probably enjoy it then.

   I read "Hot Finish" 2 weeks ago (won it at a book blog) and also enjoyed it. My fav is still the first in the series but still I liked "Hot Finish" and especially Suz.

Yesterday I read Nauti and Wild by Lora Leigh & Jaci Burton and this book was soo hot and good! After reading it I finally ordered the first book in the Wild Riders series by Jaci Burton.

Today I'm starting with "Almost to die for", the new book by Tate Hallaway.

Make your own luck!

Why isn't it on Kindle? It's on the nook, and it's usually the other way around. Jill Barnett's titles have been available on the Kindle for a month, and I'm still waiting impatiently.

   I am really going through the In Death books slowly. I am still in Visions in Death and I thought after the last one I read that I loved - even though i cannot remember the name , this would not live up. I was wrong. There is something to look forward to in each book. Love it when Mavis tell Roarke she wants him to be there during the birth and he is horrified. Lol.

   I'm listening to The Unfortunate Miss Fortunes by Jennifer Crusie, Eileen Dreyer, and Anne Stuart. If you don't like books with supernatural themes you might not like this book since it is about three sisters who are witches and just learning to use their powers. But if you don't mind the supernatural, you are in for some very, very hot sex, sweet romance, and some true laugh out loud moments.

Well, this is the start to the new series. Can't wait. This is a new publisher so the books are more expensive, but Lorelei is one of the few authors I'll spend that kind of money on when the book is new and I haven't read it yet. The Rough Riders series still has a very special place in my heart.

I'm so glad that you love her books too. It's fun to have a buddy to share with when she comes out with a new one. Someone to discuss favorite characters and such. Thanks for telling me about the family tree on her website. It makes it much easier to follow the McKays and Wests. Gee, I hope I got their names right. Cringe.
