This is another book read during my trip to Paris. Again, the author isn’t new to me. I’ve read one of Julia London’s contemporary romance, and her regency series, The Desperate Debutantes, and liked them all.
There wasn’t any synopsis on the backcover, but as I’ve been checking out the author’s website every now and then […]

I’m no stranger to Eric McCarthy, having read the hilariously entertaining Heiress for Hire in 2006. I recall making plans to hunt down some of her contemporary stuff but never got round to it.

Being no stranger to Lynn Kurland’s sweet time travel romances, I was naturally delighted to discover that she has published two romantic fantasy works under the Nine Kingdoms trilogy and needed no persuasion to get the series.
Turns out Star of the Morning and The Mage’s Daughter were every bit as brilliant as the back covers […]

With one website launched, I have a little bit of breathing space, so without further ado, here are the reviews of four books read recently.
Lord of the Silver Bow by David Gemmel is a prize find. I mean, I’ve always been a fan of Greek heroic fantasy, but have always stuck to the interpretations of […]

It’s been two crazy weeks of non-stop preparation for the launch of another website, and the company annual dinner, so much so that now that the party’s over and we’ll know for sure if the site’s ready for take-off on Monday, I find myself with some time on hand, so what better thing to do […]
