Then pretend she's not the most captivating woman he's ever met...Genre: Historical romance
Helping a devilish Duke create a contest to pick his perfect mate is the kind of challenge Tessa Mansfield relishes. Her methods may be scandalous, but she's determined to find the notorious bachelor more than a wife--she'll bring him true love. Yet when Tessa watches the women vie for the Duke's affections, she longs to win his heart herself. And after a stolen kiss confirms Tristan's desire, Tessa knows she has broken a matchmaker's number one rule: never fall in love with the groom.

But in Virgin River, faith in new beginnings and the power of love has doors opening everywhere...
Series: Virgin River, Book #11
Nath: I really enjoyed Virgin River and after that book, I've become a huge fan of Ms Carr. However, I feel that her last few books have been lacking something... Still, going to give this book a go :P
Ames: Ok, I read and loved Virgin River and have since bought up all the books in the series...without reading them. So as much as I'm interested in this book, I have nine other VR books to read, so I'm drawing the line here, I won't get this one until I'm more caught up in this series. Whew! That was hard!
Prom & Prejudice by Elizabeth Eulberg
published by Scholastic
After winter break, the girls at the very prestigious Longbourn Academy become obsessed with the prom.

Lizzie is happy about her friend’s burgeoning romance but less than impressed by Charles’s friend, Will Darcy, who’s snobby and pretentious. Darcy doesn’t seem to like Lizzie either, but she assumes it’s because her family doesn’t have money. Clearly, Will Darcy is a pompous jerk — so why does Lizzie find herself drawn to him anyway?
Will Lizzie’s pride and Will’s prejudice keep them apart? Or are they a prom couple in the making? Whatever the result, Elizabeth Eulberg, author of The Lonely Hearts Club, has concocted a very funny, completely stylish delight for any season — prom or otherwise.

Though Zeke’s wanted Neva for as long as he can remember, their attraction can never go anywhere. They both know that for different reasons. But when a killer starts leaving behind a trail of victims, Zeke’s need to protect her is as fierce as his desire to claim her as his mate. And love may be the only thing that can save them both...
Series: Skin series, Book #3
Ames: Ok, so I drew a line with Promise Canyon but I'm not drawing a line with this series. Yeah I'm a few behind...and considering it's book 3 that means I haven't read any yet, but I know this author is good. LOL Plus three is easier to catch up with than NINE. Right? I have a problem....
Monroe: I've got like the first three in this series but haven't started them yet either! lol BUT I really want to...I mean LOOK AT THAT COVER! Yum! ;P

Years ago, a young girl was beaten and raped while onlookers did nothing. Now those witnesses are becoming victims themselves...Genre: Romantic suspense

Twenty years later, Alina is dead and Mac has returned to the country that expelled them to hunt her sister's murderer.

What follows is a shocking chain of events with devastating consequences, and now Mac struggles to cope with grief while continuing her mission to acquire and control the Sinsar Dubh-a book of dark, forbidden magic scribed by the mythical Unseelie King, containing the power to create and destroy worlds.
In an epic battle between humans and Fae, the hunter becomes the hunted when the Sinsar Dubh turns on Mac and begins mowing a deadly path through those she loves.
Who can she turn to? Who can she trust? Who is the woman haunting her dreams? More important, who is Mac herself and what is the destiny she glimpses in the black and crimson designs of an ancient tarot card?
From the luxury of the Lord Master's penthouse to the sordid depths of an Unseelie nightclub, from the erotic bed of her lover to the terrifying bed of the Unseelie King, Mac's journey will force her to face the truth of her exile, and to make a choice that will either save the world... or destroy it.

Lady Minerva Sharpe has the perfect plan to thwart her grandmother's demands: become engaged to a rogue! Surely Gran would rather release her inheritance than see her wed a scoundrel. And who better to play the part of Minerva's would-be husband than wild barrister Giles Masters, the very inspiration for the handsome spy in the popular Gothic novels she writes? The memory of his passionate kiss on her nineteenth birthday has lingered in Minerva's imagination, though she has no intention of really falling for such a rakehell, much less marrying him. Little does she know, he really is a covert government operative. When they team up to investigate the mystery behind her parents' deaths, their fake betrothal leads to red-hot desire. Then Minerva discovers Giles's secret double life, and he must use all the cunning tricks of his trade to find his way back into her heart.
Series: The Hellions of Halstead Hall series, Book #3
Nath: I've been enjoying this series and Ms Jeffries' writing. I'm particularly looking forward to this book, because of Minerva, the heroine :P She's a gothic author and quite independent and it's going to be interesting to see her fall in love with Giles. Not sure how I feel about Giles being an agent though :(
Ames: *sigh* Here's a series I want to start...I can't wait to see what you think of the latest installment Nath!

Nath: While I prefer the Alpha & Omega series, at this point, it doesn't really matter LOL. All I want is to read about Ms Briggs' werewolves!! I hope in this book, Mercy is going to find more about herself and her origins, it'd be quite interesting :P
Ames: I still haven't read Silver Borne. Can you believe it? But that's not stopping me from getting this one!
Monroe: Another one I need to catch up on. Normally I'm SO up to date but I get sad knowing its the latest book and always put off reading it so NOW I'll have two to read! lol Yay me! ;P

Series: N/A
Nath: Ms Alexander is a comfort author of mine... so I just buy her books LOL. I really like her writing style :) Although now that I read this blurb, it sounds familiar for some reasons. Hmmm. In any case, I was unaware though that she changed publisher... I do hope though she'll get to write the last book of the Harrington series...

Ames: I just read and reviewed Wicked Intentions over at Book Binge and I can't wait to read this next book!
11 comments:
Oh man! A new Karen Rose?! I may have one of my buddies in our UK office pick it up for me and send it through interoffice mail :)
And the next Hoyt (can't wait), and the next Jeffries.
And a book that looks like a regency (judging the book by its cover, uh huh) set in 17th century? Wonder if that's a typo and it's actually the 1700s. Intrigued, though.
Hi guys, Happy New Year!! I love the new look! The blue is very calming to me and I need all the calm I can get at the moment, lol.
You know, I saw the cover of the Dreiling book at Amazon today and actually contemplated picking it up. Thanks to you guys now I have a review to checkout first before buying!
Of the list, I am definitely picking up the Rose - on preordered as well!, Singh, and Briggs. Only three books but all by favorite authors so I really can't complain. Yay, can't wait!
Lori-That's so cool you can get someone in the UK to possibly send you the latest KR! And yeah, must be a typo. I hope. LOL
Tabz-Happy New Year! I'm intrigued by the Dreiling, but I don't know if I can get past the whole matchmaking thing.
Hey, I’m actually glad I’m a few behind on a series. I might be able to catch up with Karen Rose’s books by the time this one hits the US shelves. :)
SHADOWFEVER
MERCY
I’m just going to ignore the Carr books. So far behind on that series. LOL
Still haven’t tried Courtney Milan but keep hearing such good reviews for her books. Must get with it.
Ah, Hoyt. Can’t wait for this one. I’m also looking forward to the story within the story at the beginning of each chapter. Love those!
I want to check out Prom & Prejudice! It looks really cute. I'll be looking for that one.
Happy New Year! I love the blue, too... very relaxing. Your list is relaxing my wallet, too.... *sigh*
SHADOWFEVER!!! OMG!!!!!! I am dying for this one and I only just completely caught up in the series in December. LOL! I haven't been this captivated by a series in such a long time...
Okay, let's see... the only other books already on my list to buy are Angels Consort (even though I'm behind... ) and of course, River Marked. But actually, I'll borrow the Mercy book from the library since it's hardcover and then buy the paperback for my shelf when it comes out. :)
I have to say I love the idea of Guhrke's series called "Jilted at the Alter"--I just love those stories!
And Eloisa James' Beauty and the Beast book sounds good, too!
AND I really like Courtney Milan's writing so I'll be reading Unveiled at one point, too. ..
AND ... I'll probably read the Hoyt book at one point as well because so many fellow trusted readers really enjoy her stories.
I think that's it... $IGH...
Lori - Yep, new Karen Rose... and that would be such a cool way to get the book, Lori!! I was going to order it through Book Depository, but somehow, I couldn't... so I went with Amazon.co.uk... What I wouldn't do for my next KR fix LOL.
Tabitha - I'm glad you're liking the blue, Tabs :) I guess we were looking for something simple :P
By the way, Tabs. If you want the Dreiling, I can send it to you :P
I guess publishers are making up the boring month of December we got LOL.
Leslie - Yes, sometimes, there is something to be said about being behind in a series :P I think it gives you more option and more thinking time... like you know, if a series turns sour, you can stop before getting there...
Isabel - It does sound like a cute book :) Ames pre-ordered it and I picked it up at the bookstore the other day :P
Christine - LOL about the wallet comment :P
Actually, I got the series name wrong... it's not Jilted, but Abandoned at the Altar... although imo, close enough LOL.
Well the good news is that you're planning to use your library and also, you don't need to buy all these books at once :)
I like 'Jilted' better than 'Abandoned'. Too bad we weren't asked our opinions before the author/editor named the series. LOL!
Unfortunately, my library won't get most of these titles in. Only if it comes out in HC or sometimes a mass market, but usually more likely to find a romantic suspense or mystery or chick lit. I should check to see if they have any Karen Rose.
I meant trade, not mass market in my comment above. My library never gets mass market paperbacks in the adult section--why is that? On a rare occasion I spot a trade book on the shelves.
Dude, I had Prom and Prejudice in my hands last weekend but i put it back because I signed up for an ARC tour and now I'm regretting that decision. I want to read it! I still have to read the first book you blogged about.
Hmmm, there are a lot of books coming out that I want to read this month but most of them are YA.
How funny that you read the first book in the Dream series, Ames. Same with me, I keep saying that I'm going to catch up with the series eventually but I haven't yet.
Nath, I really liked Julia's book (the Laura Lee Guhrke one)...I think I liked it better than the first book.
I have Unveiled in my TBR pile, I must read that soon because I want to have good taste too! =P
Monroe and Ames- How did you guys like Tempted? HON series?
Christine - Oh, that sucks Christine, but also understandable. It's the pricier books that people won't get.
Rowena - Wena, Prom & Prejudice is a very fast read. I started it this morning and was done in the afternoon :)
I'm really glad to hear that you enjoyed Julia's book :) I read the excerpt and I had a feeling about it... and the theme is one I adore :) Can't wait to get my hands on it :)
