Reader Question… Solved! The historical romance book where the Hero wanted revenge on a man that harmed his family…

October 11, 2020 By Maryse 3 Comments

Max needs our book help! Ohhhh this one sounds full of secrets and angst and since I don’t have much historical romance experience, I haven’t read it, but maybe you have?

She asks:

Hi Maryse,

Love your blog, I know I can always find something to read here if I’m in a reader rut πŸ˜‰ . Keep up the good work!

Now I have been thinking about a book I read years ago but I can’t remember which one it actually was.

It’s Historical Romance and I first thought it might be a Lisa Kleypas book. read more

Lisa Kleypas – The Ravenels Series Reading Order

February 28, 2018 By Maryse 3 Comments

My historical romance fans, a new one JUST WENT LIVE in Lisa Kleypas’s latest series!!!! And I know I have some hardcore Lisa Kleypas fans here! GAH!! I am absolutely in LOVE with these covers.

Anne: Marrying Winterborne by Lisa Kleypas was amazing! I loved Rhys! And the bonus chapter from Winter in Spring gave me all the feels! Sebastian is still hot after 30 years.

Jan: Devil In Spring was LOVELY. What a beautiful book. I remember bev saying she smiled all the way through. Yes! Pandora the slightly kooky/klutzy, sweet, innocent, clever and determined-to-be-independent h. Gabriel the gorgeous, sexy, experienced, warm and loving H who falls in love with her. *happy sigh* read more

Lisa Kleypas – Friday Harbor Trilogy Reading Order

June 29, 2012 By Maryse 6 Comments

About book #1:

Lucy Marinn is a glass artist living in mystical, beautiful, Friday Harbor, Washington.Β  She is stunned and blindsided by the most bitter kind of betrayal:Β  her fiancΓ© Kevin has left her.Β  His new lover is Lucy’s own sister.

Lucy’s bitterness over being dumped is multiplied by the fact that she has constantly made the wrong choices in her romantic life.Β Β  Facing the severe disapproval of Lucy’s parents, Kevin asks his friend Sam Nolan, a local vineyard owner on San Juan Island, to “romance” Lucy and hopefully loosen her up and get her over her anger. Complications ensue when Sam and Lucy begin to fall in love, Kevin has second thoughts, and Lucy discovers that the new relationship in her life began under false pretenses. read more

Book Review – Sugar Daddy by Lisa Kleypas

April 19, 2012 By Maryse 14 Comments

Sugar Daddy
I decided on this one when a certain paranormal book I was anxious to get to wasn’t completely hooking me. I’ve been having a difficult reading week since reading Sylvia Dare’s Bared to You (flitting from one book to the next, not fully connecting with anything), and when this series was brought to my attention, I thought it just might do!

  • Tons of great reviews: check!
  • My own fellow readers vehementlyΒ recommending it: check!
  • Contemporary romance series with a bad boy kick: check!
  • Fellow readers each claiming one of the books as their their favorite in the series (and all three of the books were named): check!

It looked promising! And as I tried my hardest to connect to a paranormal book I had just started, this one kept calling me. Not that my paranormal was bad (it wasn’t, and I’ve been told it, too, is amazing), I just needed something more “real” to help get over my “Bared to You” hump. read more

April 13, 2012 By Maryse 9 Comments

I’ve been hearing a lot about this author as a sure thing for an awesome read, and then received this comment:

Trisha: Quick note since I noticed that you are liking contemporary romance I think you would Love her contemporary trilogy she has…the first book is called “Sugar Daddy”. It’s one of my favorite books!

And when I received this recommendation from my Facebook group, I knew she was moving to the top of my TBR list:

Christina:Β … any of you girls ever read Sugar Daddy and Blue Eyed Devil by Lisa Kleypas? These are two of my all time favorite books, and Hardy Cates is a bad boy. It does look like Blue Eyed Devil is in ebook format but I encourage you ladies to try them out. So good! read more
