It has been like Hades where I live. The heat has been anywhere between 107 and 113. Remind me why I live here again? I think they’re taking the Sunny Southern California thing a little far. Well, it just made me want to stay indoors in order to stay cool so I read A LOT this week.

We’re having a great time over at the DIK ladies blog. Don’t forget to hop over there daily to see everyone’s “About Me” questions and answers.

I read The Sun Witch by Linda Winstead Jones first. See below for review. I liked the book overall but didn’t like being left with unanswered questions. I guess they got me though since I do plan on reading the next books for find out what happend.

The Darkest Kiss by Gena Showalter was next. This is the second book in her Lords of the Underworld series. (I think there’s an ebook prequel too but I haven’t read that yet). I really liked this book. Lucien is scarred yet wonderful and I loved Anya’s feistiness. She wasn’t afraid to go for what she wanted and I liked that alot. We got some good insight into the other Lords’ futures too and that was great.

I read The Assignment by Evangeline Anderson last week and really liked Valenti and O’Brian’s characters so when I saw the 2 shorts, I’ll Be Hot For Christmas and Fireworks, she had with their characters I was up for reading them. I have to tell you I was more than disappointed. They basically had the same story lines – one of the characters is acting strange after a major event in their lives, won’t communicate…let’s pound em with sex to get em talking. I’ve read the story lines before, it’s just not my kind of thing…although it may be someone elses.

The 3rd installment in the Troubleshooters series is Over The Edge by Suzanne Brockmann. I have to tell you that I emailed Shannon M. to thank her for recommending this series to me. I seriously loved this book. I laughed, I cryed. Just an awesome read!

Dr. Feelgood by Alice Gaines. Heh. Funny name. Cute little novella. Lots of sex.

Finally got around to reading Through the Veil by Shiloh Walker (RAW author). I honestly wasn’t sure about it even halfway through, but by the end I was really liking it. I’m hoping there will be a follow up book with Morne! 🙂

The Power of Love Anthology I won at Book Binge. 12 authors have written shorts about love. I really enjoyed reading it and it just kinda warmed the cockles of my shriveled little heart.

Happy Reading!
