Book Review: Kill Me Twice, Thrill Me to Death
It’s time for me to catch up on my backlog of book reviews, so I’ve grouped these romantic suspense books into this bundled review. Now, I’ve long admired the way The Book Smugglers structured their review post, and since one of the Top 10 Things I’ve resolved to do this year ...
TBR Jan Book Review: Dear John
If I were asked to name one great male romantic fiction author 2 years ago, I would have said “None comes to my mind.” However, having read A Walk to Remember and watched the movie (on YouTube, no less!), and recently followed that up with the heart-achingly sweet war romance (well, ...

Book Review: Lords of the Underworld series (Books 1 to 4)
Well, I did promise that the next post would be about Gena Showalter’s Lords of the Underworld series, didn’t I? And since I’ve been slacking off on posts -- the understatement of the year, if ever there was an award for it – it’s more than time I make up ...It has been a while since my last Nalini Singh novel … 14 months and 25 days if one were inclined to be precise. So, when I managed to obtain a copy of her new series debut, I decided to catch up on the Psy Changeling world.
Naturally, it was a joy to relive the series by rereading the previous instalments before arriving at Mine to Possess. This time round, the focus is on Clay Bennet and Talin McKade, a friend from his past who survived a violent, abusive and love-starved childhood with him and whom, he had been told, died more than 15 years ago. Talin’s human heritage hides a secret gift that could be Psy in its mysterious origin, but was causing Talin’s health to deteriorate.
Her appearance on the scene after missing for so long served as the catalyst for a lot of the action in this book, and the kids she was guardian to provided the missing link to a growing crime that the clan had uncovered in book 3 which clued them in on the bigger picture of a quiet rebellion that’s taking place amongst the Psy.
