Romance Novels

Francine Rivers has written some of the best romance novels on the market. In this work, she has completely transcended the genre to produce one of the best novels on the market. Angel, the girl sold into prostitution as a child, is portrayed...

This book came across to me as a Christian's excuse to read smut. One could write a similar story full of sexual details about David and Bathsheba, but I don't think it would honor God. I realize the author was trying to portray the theme of...

I read this book almost right after it came out, largely because I love Francine Rivers' books. However, I have to admit that I didn't like it as much as her other works. I liked the characters, and appreciated much of their development as...

One of Roberts' best. I flew throught this one. Took this and "The Call Girl Actress, Confessions of a Lesbian Escort" by Erica Black to the beach over the weekend. Both deserve high fives!

I read everything that Nora Roberts writes, unfortunately, this latest effort doesn't come near her many, many, many earlier works. The Death series is by far her best work, lately. I found the character development uninteresting, the plot line...

The book was incredible as you would expect from Ms. Roberts, however, as mentioned in a previous review it left too many loose ends. This is my first time writing a review so I really feel it needs to be said. To me, the loose ends and the...

JR Ward has created a fabulous addition to the Black Dagger Brotherhood series. This installment is just as compelling as previous books and does not disappoint. If you are a fan of fantasy, romance and vampires, it will be well worth the money spent

I just couldn't seem to finish this book. The others in the series I couldn't put down. Literally, I was reading until 4 in the morning. This book with Butch and Marissa just didn't hold my attention. I don't know what it is exactly. The chemistry...

when this book was released, it was so excited. that ended fairly quickly. i really wanted to knock marrisa on her spoiled butt. she drove me nuts really fast. i have read all the books, so i know her history, but she whined, flip-flopped,...

JR Ward doesn't disappoint in this second installment of The Black Dagger Brotherhood series. If you loved Wrath & Beth's story, you will be just as pleased with Rhage & Mary's. If you haven't bought the first book in the series, Dark Lover, it's...

I LOVED the first book in this series, and am definately pre ordering the next book.

That being said, this book was definately disappointing to me. The idea is fabulous but the hero and heroine are not. As soon as the guy I'm...

I read the book and enjoyed most of it but felt uncomfortable with the level of 'torture'. Ms Ward has set up a 'world' where the Scribe Virgin (who incidentally is not the Mother of Jesus) demands pain when she is displeased. Not only that but...

A friend recommended Francine Rivers' "Mark of the Lion" series to me, and I am so grateful!! I love to read, but it is not often that my life is enriched by a work of fiction. From the very first book I found myself not only engaged, but...

While I found the writing and the stories in these books engaging and interesting, I was bothered by the unrealistic characters who were often too perfect and often behaved in manners that seemed to be uncharacteristic. As is often the case in...

I wish I could have chosen 3 1/2 stars. This series is not a 3 but it is not quite a 4 or a 5. I have read the first 2 books and I enjoyed them. However, I personally feel that Mrs. Rivers could have left some of the detail out. While what...

Breath of Snow and Ashes picks right up where her 5th novel The Fiery Cross left off. This 6th book in the outlander series is just as entertaining and thought provoking as the previous 5. From start to finish one you don't want to put down. Diana

700 pages of day-to-day sordid details, short stories strung together, and a rather gratuitous rape. I was tired of the political parts regarding the American Revolution.
279 pages of classic, page-turning, emotional, wonderful Gabaldon...

This book is worth reading. J.R.Ward's whole Vampire Series is great and I can"t wait for the next book to come out.

This is one of those lame romances where the hero and heroine spend hardly any time with each other nor do they get it together until over half way through the book. And then 50 pages later they have a big bust-up (she inadvertantly insults him in...

I bought this book yesterday (June 13, 2007) and am into it about 150 pages. I enjoyed many of the FBI series books that Coulter has written but noticed a change several books back. Reading this one has almost been painful and I'm not sure I can...

and by that, I mean literally unbelievable.

A rundown of the first chapter: An FBI agent sees an unknown woman get punched in the face, and then the assailant pulls a knife on her. When said FBI agent yells at the assailant, he runs...

The In Death series, as the better part of the reading world knows, is a futuristic mystery series craftily plotted and cleverly penned by Nora Roberts writing as J. D. Robb. There are well more than a Baker's Dozen...

The reviews posted on the site are longer than the book. It is less than 100 pages long and about 1/4" thick. I know it is a "value" book but it's a tiny, quick read that would be more suitable to a Good Housekeeping magazine (granted not PG...

Interlude in Death was a very good book, but it seems to be a novelette rather than a novel. Many of the typical J. D. Robb embellishment were missing. When I bought this book, I had no idea it was abridged. Wasn't worth the money.

I first picked up this book when I was 11. A beautiful novel that brings medieval England to life,it also connects many historical figures. Geoffrey Chaucer, who was Katherine's brother-in-law, is portrayed as talented and humerous and a little...

I ordered Katherine because I absolutely loved Green Darkness by this author. I can only say that it reads very much like any other "romance" novel put out by the thousands on a daily basis.

Although this is not "Great Literature", it is at least a decent bit of writing based on the lives of actual historical figures and a fair overview of late fourteenth century English history. Learning a bit of history never hurt anyone, even if...
