To Seduce A Sinner by Elizabeth Hoyt.

To Seduce a Sinner by Elizabeth Hoyt ♥Vale reminds me a little of Iddesleigh, who is my favourite Elizabeth Hoyt hero. ♥ Vale is probably the second now. And third is everyone else.

I kept thinking about that part where Melisande prepares a pallet on the floor so that they can sleep together. It is so sweet.

I love this book. ♥

Bride in a Glided Cage by Abby Green.

Bride in a Gilded Cage by Abby Green ♥ Oh my goodness. Where do I start? The ending?

I just can't believe I almost forgot how overwhelming Abby Green's endings are. I think I shed more tears than the heroine.

Basically, I find the beginning of the story, cold. Not exactly my favourite theme (cold, unfeeling, arranged marriage), but I just know it will pick up somewhere.

Then bam. The part where Rafael and Isobel were labelled as bleeding hearts? It's like Christmas.

I thought it's the part where the story thawed. ♥

The part where Isobel did a hundred and eighty degree change and tried to be the trophy wife that Rafael had wanted at the beginning? And the acrylic nails thingy? That's it.

The milonga? It.

Then the ending? The I-love-yous and all that? Damn. ♥

I love Abby Green. She just writes the most satisfying endings ever.

Her So-Called Fiancé by Abby Gaines.

Her So-Called Fiancé by Abby Gaines I should remember, if I have to work the next day, I should NOT be reading anything tonight. Because I would have a really lousy next-day. Unless the book is really lousy.

But it's not, so I had a lousy morning today.

Anyway, Her So-Called Fiancé was my next Abby Gaines book, prompted by the fact that there's abit of Tyler of Bethany from The Diaper Diaries.

Again, I stand by my fantastical idea that I should read an Abby Gaines book every week. Provided that that dear author can write 52 books year.

Favourite parts? Hmm, those thigh jokes. Sabrina being imperfect (like not thinking before she talk). Lying about Jake being her fiancé; and Jake's reaction when he found out. And Tammy! And-

Basically, I kinda smiled throughout reading this book.

This book is not perfect, like I thought Jake and Sabrina needed alot more scenes before they get their happy ending blah-blah-blah-it's-too-short.

Okayy, the extra scene at here at Abby Gaines' website placated me, just a little.

*Spoiler!* It's really nice to know Bethany is preganant! *End spoiler*

And I actually miss reading about those NASCAR stuff.

Finished To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth Hoyt.

To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth HoytWow.

Near the end is just heartwrenching. Dammit.

*Spoiler* You know the part where Emeline and Samuel just accepted that they can't be together? It's so emotional. :( Not a feeling you want to end a romance novel with. I thought the writing is really fantastic. *End Spoiler*

Have I mentioned that this book is hot? Loved those kisses.

Oh, Rebecca and O'Hare is cute. Hope to read more. The first part about Rebecca not remembering his name but remembered his eye colour is soooo ☺.

And the fairytale told at the start of each chapter. It's like a great big bonus. You get two stories for the price of one. (Or is Emeline & Samuel the bonus? Hm.)

I can't wait to read Vale and Melisande's story, which is next (To Seduce a Sinner) in this series. I'm so on the Vale wagon now.

Talking about this whole series, there's a mystery in it which, gets me. But then I have to remember that there're FOUR damn books in this serie, and I was like, what? Don't tell me there's no conclusion to this mystery in this FIRST book! Curiousity kills the cat ya know! Argh.

But actually the ending kinda soothed me. I'm not so obessed with the mystery now, as I was at the beginning. I think I can wait the time taken to read three more awesome books. And hot ones, no doubt about it. ♥

Now reading...

To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth HoytI'm in the mist of reading To Taste Temptation by Elizabeth Hoyt, and oh my, what a hot book.

Seriously hot.

And then I just have to go spoil my story by checking out who stars in the other books. The final one especially. Argh.

But on a happy thought, I knew Melisande and Vale are gonna be together! Yay! :)

The Diaper Diaries by Abby Gaines.

The Diaper Diaries by Abby Gaines I feel like I need to read a book by Abby Gaines every week.

To keep a smile on my face.

Those that I've read are funny, cute, with smart-ass conversations.

They're heart-warming, with just the right amount of emotional draining. Not too much.

So I thought it's suitable for every-week-reading.

Here are some of my favourite parts of The Diaper Diaries :

The part where Tyler couldn't tell which baby is Ben? AHAHAHAHA.

The part where Tyler is so tired that he didn't notice that Bethany gave him the signal? AHAHAHAHA.

The part where Tyler realised that Bethany did indeed gave him the signal? AHAHAHAHA.

The part where Tyler unconsiously cuddles Ben? AWWWW.

The part where Tyler stood up for Bethany in front of her parents? ♥☺

The part where Tyler busted the fake mother? ♥☺

Tyler being around Bethany is just too cute. ☺

But I had wanted more Tyler & Ben & Bethany time. Seems like not enough.

The Ice Princess.

The Ice Princess by Elizabeth Hoyt This is a free novella by Elizabeth Hoyt.

You know, my tears flowed big time when the Ice Princess asked for the heart of a good man.

*Spoilers...

Then that good soldier kissed her and she's freed, and my tears just continued flowing.

And they lived happily ever after? Not yet, just one more thing.

The princess just had to think that the good soldier will leave her then, and she'd be truly alone. (Since her now thawed companions left too...)

Thinking about being alone in a romance novel is so sad. :(

But of course he corrected her, and THEN they lived happily ever after.

*End spoilers...

What a nice fairy tale with a little climax there. ♥

As for the actual hero and heroine of this novella?

All the damn time while reading it, I was thinking that this should so not be a novella.

Coral and Issac deserved more pages. This should a whole novel!

And perhaps Anna and Edward could make an appearance.

I'm just kinda pissed as I didn't get enough of Coral and Issac, because I've so enjoyed the other three full length books in the Princes Trilogy.

Sigh.

Okayy, that reunion kiss at end kinda makes up for everything. And the kiss on the Challenger.

But still it could be longer. Like, not be a novella.

And like, have more reunion kisses. :P

Sandra Jacobs & Gideon Taney.

Fully Engaged by Abby Gaines Just finished reading Fully Engaged by Abby Gaines.

I love it!

Those moments when Gideon was thinking of kissing Sandra, or grabbing her and wanting to kiss her, is just too cute.

I love it that they didn't deny their attraction to each other.

Gideon and Sandra work together, and I was expecting the no-you're-my-boss-this-has-to-stop thing, but I'm soo glad there're none.

They acted on the attraction early in the story, and it's just so cute sometimes.

Six-foot-four gorilla... Krispy Kreme...

Damn I love it when they're together.

I just LOVE how Sandra thinks. About donating Will's carcass to the Zoo; about Gideon being locked up and used to re-populate Earth, blah-blah.

And the ending is just wow. Gideon's willingness to take care of Sandra is soo I-WANT.

Plus, there's even more to read about after the ending at Abby Gaines' website here.

Love it. ♥

And yea there's Danny Cruise! ☺
