HIS NEW JAM by Shannyn Schroeder

I prefer His Work of Art to this book, the previous book in the series, to this one.  I still had a good time reading the book, it's just that I did not like the ending of the book that much.

 Sydney Peters is the cymbal player of her school's marching band, but she hates it.  Her passion is really to play the drums, but since she's so good at playing the cymbals, they keep her at it.  At least, that's the excuse they gave her.

 Swearing off men after her last disastrous breakup, Sydney is determined to stay away from the band flirt Hunter.  That is until he offers her a place as the drummer in his band.  This is one offer Sydney cannot refuse. 

 Hunter is fascinated by Sydney and her aloof attitude. Maybe her ignoring his charms is what made him want her more, but one thing is for sure.  When he saw how passionate and amazing she looked when playing the drums, Hunter knew that he wanted that passion aimed at him.

 Hunter and Sydney went into this relationship, only thinking that they were only going to have fun with each other.  What none of them bargained for was to fall in love.

 Sydney was understandably a little bitchy.  She blames herself for being so stupid in her last relationship and did not want a repeat of that happening ever again.  She quit boys and focused all her attention on her studies and her music.

 She was going great with her studies, but her music is not as far along as she would like it to be.  She loves playing the drums, but she does not own her own drumset and every time she tries to start a band, her personality clashes with the other members.

 Hunter is the first person that Sydney has gotten along with and her personality does not drive him away.  Reading about the chemistry was nice and I liked how Hunter was concerned for Sydney's well being. 

 The downside to this book.  The sex scenes were not needed.  I had no fun reading about them, for they were not hot and the sex felt like a placeholder in the book.  After barely reading the first one, I skipped the others.

 Another thing I did not like, the ending. It was too abrupt and a safe way to end the book. There was no blow-out and there were no tears, just mutual understanding and it was a letdown.

 Good book to read even with the lack of heated sex.  You guys would have fun reading this book, especially since the back story of the characters were explained better than the previous book.
HAPPY READING!

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...

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 ...

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.

Deciding to quit her high paying job as a bio-medical engineer and to follow her fashion dreams by working in a clothing store that caters to the full figured woman like herself. 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.
