Reader Question – The book with the ex-wife that uses their kids to manipulate him into coming over…

By 1 Comment

YES!!!! I think I’ve read this one! Lauren read one of our recent reader questions, and it reminded her of a book SHE’S looking for. Her description of it makes me think of a Kristen Ashley book (Motorcycle Man & Sweet Dreams comes to mind for me). But maybe that’s not it?

She asks:

This got me searching my library for a book I read a while back…..the h’s ex-wife is constantly calling him to come over, saying the kids are sick or crying for him, that she needs groceries, that something needs fixing in the house, or the kids are begging for a bedtime story from him, etc. read more

Reader Confessions – Lisa one-clicks books that she’s too afraid to read…

Book temptation is hard on us! We can’t help it!!

Tee hee!!! Lisa’s confession makes me laugh, ’cause I’m kind of the same way (although my book-hoarding kicks in hard, just like Lisa’s 😉 but mine is for fantasy books – I’ll explain later). But for some of you that might not know the terms she’s referring to, they’re made-up terms by our crew here to distinguish between certain genres.

So here’s a little hint to help you understand what she means for when you read her confession:

“Death Club books” are the books that some of us (so MANY of us) love even though an important character might… die. Okay, or, I’ll just come right out and say it. Dies. Most definitely (although we try to avoid saying that, since we don’t like to spoil books). But once it becomes known (or some INSIST on the spoiler), it becomes a part of the unofficial “death club” list. Obviously, I haven’t made that list (not officially) since that would be… wayyyyyyy tooooo spoilerish. 😉 read more
