- With Seduction in Mind by Laura Lee Guhrke: Rosie has a good review of this book. It wasn't great, nor was it bad, but for me it was somewhat disappointing. I've been autobuying Laura Lee Guhrke for years, The Girl-Bachelor series has me rethinking this.
- MacKenzie's Legacy (MacKenzie's Mountain and MacKenzie's Mission) by Linda Howard: As if I haven't already read these two books over and over and over and over again. And, I read them again this weekend--still LOVE them :) I've worn out two original MacKenzie's Mountain and I can't seem to find my copy of Mission. For me, this is Linda Howard at her very best. Strong alpha heros and equally strong heroines--it doesn't get better than that.
- Never Love a Lawman by Jo Goodman: Honestly, I think I bought this book for the cover :) I'm about 70 pages into this and I'm not loving her story set-up. I know the point is to be mysterious, but it's not working for me. But it is a long book (almost 440 pages) so I'm going to keep at it, maybe it needs a long set-up to go with the large word count.
Have a great day/night and happy reading.

I almost picked up Howard's re-release of the MacKenzie books just because it had the name Mackenzie on the cover. I think Mackenzie Mountain is my most re-read romance.
Jo Goodman is a good writer and Lord knows I love a western but this one was missing something. Wish I could put my finger on what it is.
Keep going! The beginning is a bit of a cluster and you are going huh what for a bit. But I think it falls into place well.
And I do so love the characters. I am very much a Goodman fan but was seeing some thing really repeat with her heroines. I think she starts to break away here.
Love what she does with the town, which is almost a character itself. And the hero is fabu but her heroes always are (sez me *g*).
Rosie--MacKenzie's Mountain is probably one of my top rereads too :)
Sybil is right it gets better, but I'm 160+ pages into it and I still don't know why Rachel ran away. I'm close though.
Sybil: Love what she does with the town, which is almost a character itself. And the hero is fabu but her heroes always are (sez me *g*).
sez me too. Wyatt--fantastic. I'm also loving "that no-account Beatty boy". He just kissed Rose :)
Sybil--I've reached the point where it doesn't matter why she's running, which is probably a good thing or I'd be really annoyed by now.
Still need to read the Goodman. Cripes, I suck. In my defense, it's sitting on my desk at home, smacking me in the face every time I hop on the Internet.
We need to put that on an icon or ohhh maybe a t-shirt...
TaraMarie sez Sybil is Right!
I like *eg*

I'll blog about it later :)
