MacGuffin

I don’t usually buy Christmas anthologies, but I’m going to have to make an exception. Not just because Jennifer Crusie is in the collection, but because the heroine is looking for a MacGuffin. This slays me.

Thanks to Dear Author for their review.

All About Samhain

Three red hots, three paranormal romances and two contemporary romances from Samhain this week:

Best sellers at My Bookstore and More:

1. Taking Chase by Lauren Dane
2. Grace Under Pressure by Melissa Schroeder
3. Joker’s Wild: Three Nights by Lena Matthews

Both Taking Chase and Joker’s Wild: Three Nights were released last week.

Quote

Flitting through one of the AAR boards I found a post by Jo Beverley. And I just had to quote part of it here:

Any historical fiction is a subtle blend of realism and selective fantasy, but it looks as if many of us have different tastes. The strange thing is that we sometimes talk as if we should all agree on what’s “right.”

So so true. I’m quite taken by her description.

Happy Thanksgiving to those of you south of the border :)

All About Samhain

Best sellers at My Bookstore and More:

1. Lords of the Were by Bianca D’Arc

This week from Samhain:

  • Zombie Joely Skye. Novella. M/M paranormal romance. Second in the Minders series.
  • No Greater Loss Diane Craver. Novel. Inspirational romance.
  • Mine over Matter Kai Andersen. Novel. Paranormal romance. Book 1 of the Mind Games series.
  • Grace Under Pressure Melissa Schroeder. Novel. Romantic comedy. Red hot.
  • Eye Candy Sandy Lynn. Short story. Contemporary romance. Red hot.

So, I believe No Greater Loss is the first Inspirational romance at Samhain. Yay, for expanding genres! Zombie and Mine Over Matter each belong to a (different) paranormal series. Both Eye Candy and Grace Under Pressure are red hot reads!

Library!

Oh, oh, oh! My library has placed an order for…

Loving Lies by Lora Leigh!

Why does this matter? Because that means my library is buying their first Samhain book (to my knowledge). I find this very exciting!
