The Title Isn’t That Great, but the Book Rocks

February 4, 2017 by Classic 2 Comments

Please note that I gave this book 4.5 stars but rounded it up to 5 stars here. This was a cute book. Unfortunately I read book #6 first, so I already knew that how this story would end up. I am still glad I read it though. The hero/heroine were great. Though I will say that James heroes all seem to be over 6 feet tall with dark hair. And the heroines always have long hair to their backs practically and wear it in a […]

February 3, 2017 by Classic 4 Comments

I liked this book. I think there were a couple of things that could have been improved upon (like Ford not being a jerk because a woman doesn’t want to go out with him) but overall liked this a lot.

And then somehow is in the right […]

This book should be called DUNCE Road

May 19, 2016 by The Mama Leave a Comment

Oh, Jane. I had such high hopes for you after reading Family Pictures, so I read Mr. Maybe, which wasn’t a home run with me, but I wanted to give you another chance. But I think I might have to break up with you after reading this. You nearly did me in. Plus? Halfway through I realized I’d read this before but I still read it again, and now I’m a little mad at myself. Dune Road is the story of middle-aged Kit, who is […]
