Lori Wilde’s The Sweethearts’ Knitting Club is a feel-good book. Set in a small town, it perfectly exemplifies small town life and thinking. Lori makes her characters come alive, and you’ll get sucked in to the story before you know it.
Flynn MacGregor turns down proposal after proposal by local cop, Beau Trainer. And has for ten years now. Exactly the same amount of time her ex-boyfriend Jesse Calloway has been in prison.
But now, Jesse’s out.
Flynn sees Jesse wherever she turns, and finds she hasn’t lost the feelings she had for him in the first place. Jesse makes no secret that he wants Flynn, but he also has a bit of revenge on his mind as well.
You’ll love their stories, and the little bits of small town life fit in perfectly. Knitting clubs, a place called Froggy’s, broken water mains, etc. The scene is set, the characters are perfect. Buy this one and enjoy!

Ain’t Too Proud to Beg by Susan Donovan was just a joy to read. =) Humorous, fast paced, great love scenes. It took me three days to read it, but that was two days longer than I wanted to. Drat work for getting in the way!
Josie Sheehan has a string of failed relationships, and is 35 years old. Making a pact with her 3 friends, they decide no more men! Except for her Labradoodle, Genghis.
That is until Rick Rousseau appears, as CEO of a pet company and all around gorgeous guy. He loves her, he loves her dog, it should be happily ever after right? Wrong!
Turns out Rick has quite a past behind him, and a killer hot on his trail. Turns out Josie’s friends think Rick is a bad-boy and should leave Josie alone. When they all clash together, sparks fly higher than on the Fourth of July, and it’s one fun entertaining read. Buy the Book! =)
Oh, and Susan – I want to know what happens to Bennett!

Under the Mistletoe by Linda Howard and Stephanie Bond is a fun read. Especially at this time year. I was a wee bit concerned that Linda’s portion is half the size of Stephanie’s, but each story was an excellent read.
Bluebird Winter by Linda Howard, features Kathleen, about to give birth in the middle of a raging Christmas blizzard. Trying to save her baby, she tries driving to the nearest clinic and bam, finds herself in a snow drift. The hero, in the form of Doctor Derek saves both her and the baby, marries them and have a lovely HEA. Sounds short and sweet, but really, there’s a lot of story going on there for just the 120+ pages it’s written on!
Naughty or Nice by Stephanie Bond was a giggling good time read as well. Hotel manager Cindy has one disaster after another, just as the hotel inspector shows up. Unfortunately she thinks he’s an adult toy salesman. =) It’s lots of good fun, in a Christmas setting.
You’ll enjoy this one, it’s lots of fun reading, I read it all in one evening with a bowl of popcorn and Christmas tunes wailing in the background.

Hard to resist by Samantha Hunter is a Harlequin Blaze. Hot and steamy oh yes. So can you have hot steamy sex AND a good story? Absolutely.
Heroine Lacey Graham is photographer for Bliss magazine. Her assignment? A photo shoot with twelve heroic hunks. Gosh, does that sound like a boring assignment or what? Makes me want to drop my day job and learn how to run a lens.
Hero Jarod Wyatt is a Texas Ranger who’s chosen to participate as one of the hunky heros. Gotta love a man in Wranglers and a cowboy hat eh?
There’s thrills and chills and plot twists galore. The sexual tension between Jarod and Lacey is hot hot hot. The sub plots are spine tingling and the secondary characters add a whole new dimension to the story.
Very enjoyable read. 4 out of 5 donkey tails
