Heat by Donna Grant

I loved the chemistry between Esther and Nikolai.  This book is a great read.  The prologue helped establish Nikolai's character.  I enjoyed reading this book!

A Devil in Scotland by Suzanne Enoch

I didn't want Callum and Rebecca's story to end.  I was pulled in from the start.  The characters were so well written.  I loved Callum and his how he changed.  He was amazing.  Rebecca was a strong heroine and a wonderful match for Callum.

My Scot, My Surrender by Amalie Howard amd Angie Morgan

This one got put on the DNF stack.  It was just too over the top.  The premise was intriguing, but it was just too in your face with the heroine's brutal scars and the hero's scared horse.  Not my cup of tea.

Thanks Fur Last Night by Eve Langlais; Milly Taiden; Kate Baxter

This is an anthology with two of my favorite authors.

Bearing His Sin by Eve Langlais
I normally love Eve Langlais's comedic writing style.  However, this book was terrible.  The storyline jumped all over the place to the point I was confused.  The only saving grace was the grandma.

Bought by the Bear by Milly Taiden
I enjoyed this book and wish it was longer.  I liked the plot and thought the characters were great.

The Alpha and I by Kate Baxter
I enjoyed the plot and characters.  I thought it was well written.

So, overall two of the three books were great.

The Sheikh's Stubborn Assistant by Leslie North

I enjoyed Khalid's story.  I liked how Liyah, Mila, and Amira are involved in the story.  Katie was a great foil for Khalid's personality and helps him achieve his happiness.  This well-written novel and an excellent end to the series.  Leslie North does not disappoint!

The Madam Catches Her Duke by Christina McKnight

Madame Marce Davenport has spent her life giving of herself to others.  When her father died, her half-brother threw her family from their house.  Her mother survived by opening a brothel.  After her death, the Duke of Harwich demands that she either vacate her family's home or agree to his scheme.

Rowan Delconti, the Duke of Harwich is seeking revenge against his father and the woman who broke apart his family.  He goes to Craven House intent on confronting the Madam but finds her daughter, Marce.  Rowan abruptly decides on a change of plans.  Marce is to pretend she is his Duchess and she will keep Craven House.  All she needs to do is to be available when he visits his beloved mother at the family estate.

After eight years, Marce wants her freedom.  However, to gain it, secrets will have to come to light.  Will their relationship evolve from fake to a real romance?


This is the third book in the Craven House Series.  I thought it read well as a stand-alone.  However, I will have to read the first two. 

The characters were so well written that I felt like I was part of the book.  I loved the characters.  Marce was a wonderful heroine.  I liked seeing how Rowan's character developed.  I loved his devotion to his mother.  Rowan's friend Tobias deserves his own book!  There was a twist at the end that I did not see coming.
