NIGHT OF PLEASURE by Delilah Marvelle

I have to say, this book was refreshing and I loved it.  It emphasized on the coming together of first timers and the awkwardness that comes with it.  I loved this book for that and the characters were just too much (but in a good way).

Derek Charles Holbrook, Viscount Banfield, knew at the age of seventeen whom he was to marry.  Worst yet, it was announced at his father's death bed, so their was no way of getting out of it.  Derek didn't even want to, since  he first set eyes on his future bride, he wanted her; too bad she was only fourteen and they were allowed to marry when she turned eighteen.

​Miss Clementine Henrietta Grey has never wanted to get married, her past showed her that marriage was not for her and wanted to escape her intended marriage at all cost.  The cost was agreeing to marry someone else, and a Prince no less.   When things didn't work out, Clementine finds herself right where she started off, would Derek take her back or would her hurtful ways be too much for him to handle.

I loved Derek and wanted to hit Clementine, they both were to blame in this but at least he was willing to try.   Clementine was to much of a coward and I'm glad how things worked out, I know about her past but SHE choose to dwell on...................(frustrated breath) I cannot say what, that will be giving away too much.

I really wish you would buy Miss Delilah Marvelle's book and tell me what you think about the main characters.  I know I'm not suppose to, but I loved the Prince, I really, really liked him and Miss Delilah wrote a fun and creative book that had me laughing when Derek had to go to school.

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face.  Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can. What makes this situation worse is that the business is failing and the owner is so set in his ways that he refuses to change anything to fix it.  Frustrated with the way things were, hel...

MY CURVY VALENTINE by Sugar Jamison

This book is tied with Gentlemen Prefers Curves for the best book in this series.  Maggie is such a beautiful person, but she is also clueless.

You might think that Maggie Calhoun must be out of her mind, especially since this all came about with her parents divorce. And you would be right, Maggie is out of her mind.  Out of her mind in bliss.  This is the first time in her life that she is doing something for herself, and she plans to enjoy it.  That is until her brother's best friend, Alex, moved his bakery beneath her apartment. Every morning she is awakened by sexual dreams that include whatever is being made in the bakery each morning.  Her dreams o...

THE HIGHLAND HENCHMAN by Amy Jarecki

After reading "The Angel and the Warrior" I really needed a book to pick me up and I am so glad that this book did just the trick.  The only thing that irked me was that the heroine in this book upset me greatly. Needing royal assistance, Baron Ross issued a tournament to enchant the Highlanders to leave their land and come to the Lowlands to take part.  What he really wanted was for the Highlanders to fight a dangerous battle that would get most of them killed. After the tournament the Highland Lairds choose instead to entrust their best warriors to stay and fight. This was not exactly what Baron Ross wanted but he knew that he could not change their mind so he accepted. Bran MacLeod was one of the warriors that was left behind, and even though he did not like it, he knew that he can never go against his Laird.  It did not help matters that their was a dangerous instant attraction between him and the baron's last daughter.  Bran knows that getting involved ...
