Reservations for Two by Jennifer Lohmann
It's getting hotter in the kitchenGenre: Category romance, contempoary
Tilly Milek almost has it all. She's opened her own Chicago restaurant, the way she'd always dreamed, and it's this close to being a success. Even better, she's met Dan Meier—a gorgeous man who loves food as much as she does. He isn't put off by her demanding job, which only makes her want to spend more time with him.
But a scathing review by an anonymous local critic puts everything in jeopardy. Worse, her steamy new man turns out to be the one who wrote it! Tilly doesn't see how she can ever forgive Dan, but she can't stop thinking about him either. In print he's her enemy. In person? He's as tempting as a perfectly prepared meal…and Tilly's appetite just might get the best of her.
Series: None
Nath: When it comes to category romance, I'm quite picky. Most often, I'll pick up the books because it's by an author I've previously read before or on a recommendation. So Reservations for Two wasn't on my radar until I started seeing all the positive reviews... but with its big city setting and foodie characters, it's definitively on now :)

Series: Friday Harbor, Book #4
Nath: I'm kind of torn about Crystal Cove... I mean, it's Ms Kleypas after all! However, I'm just not excited about this series which is why I have yet to read Dream Lake and the blurb is not helping ^_^; So I guess I'm skipping this one.
Ames: I haven't read Dream Lake either. I think I'll wait to see what others say about this one.

Nath: This is the North American release of Did You Miss Me? I couldn't wait two months to get my hands on this book, so I bought the UK edition... but guess what? Yep, I'll be buying a second copy - that's how much I love Karen Rose... which means if you haven't read her yet, give her books a try!
Ames: Karen is an autobuy author for me. Even though I'm not caught up on this series I'll be picking this one up.

Xandra doesn’t want to believe that Declan is capable of murder, but as the body count mounts, and Xandra’s own powers spiral out of control, she’s not sure she can trust her own instincts...
Series: Lone Star Witch, Book #1
Nath: Magic, witch, warlock... What can I say? That's one of my weaknesses :P Also I'm very intrigued by the fact that the heroine is the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter. Powerful mojo there. I've never read Ms Adams, but I'm very intrigued :)

Series: Bound by Magick, Book #3
Nath: I read and really enjoyed Chaos Burning, the second book of the series, and that's why I'm going to pick up Going Under.
Ames: *sigh* Another series I need to get into. Lauren Dane is an auto-buy author for me so I know I'll be picking this one up regardless.
published by Berkley

Instead of treasures, though, she finds the owner, Lady Beatrice Davenham, bedridden and neglected. Appalled, Abby rousts Lady Beatrice's predatory servants and—with Lady Beatrice's eager cooperation—the four young ladies become her “nieces,” neatly eliminating the threat of disaster for all concerned!Genre: Historical romance
It's the perfect situation, until Lady Beatrice’s dashing and arrogant nephew, Max, Lord Davenham, returns from the Orient—and discovers an impostor running his household...
A romantic entanglement was never the plan for these stubborn, passionate opponents—but falling in love may be as inevitable as the falling of autumn leaves...
Series: The Chance Sisters, Book #1
Nath: In the past couple of years, I've become a huge fan of Ms Gracie's historical romances. Looking forward to her new series! Although I admit I'm a bit disappointed that The Autumn Bride is not Marcus' book... when is he going to be the hero? I hope soon!
Ames: This author is on my radar because of how much you've enjoyed her. This one sounds interesting!
Rush by Maya Banks

When Gabe Hamilton saw Mia Crestwell walk into the ballroom for his hotel’s grand opening, he knew he was going to hell for what he had planned. After all, Mia is his best friend’s little sister. Except she’s not so little anymore. And Gabe has waited a long time to act on his desires.
Gabe has starred in Mia’s fantasies more than once, ever since she was a teenager with a huge crush on her brother’s best friend. So what if Gabe’s fourteen years older? Mia knows he’s way out of her league, but her attraction has only grown stronger with time. She’s an adult now, and there’s no reason not to act on her most secret desires.
As Gabe pulls her into his provocative world, she realizes there’s a lot she doesn’t know about him or how exacting his demands can be.

Series: Breathless, Book #1
Ames: I am a fan of Maya Banks, so even though this one screams copy cat, I wanted to read it. I do like rich businessmen. I have read it, but I won't say anything about it, because I need to review it. Muahahaha!

Say you're a time traveler and you've already toured the entirety of human history. After a while, the outside world might lose a little of its luster. That's why this time traveler celebrates his birthday partying with himself. Every year, he travels to an abandoned hotel in New York City in 2071, the hundredth anniversary of his birth, and drinks twelve-year-old Scotch (lots of it) with all the other versions of who he has been and who he will be. Sure, the party is the same year after year, but at least it's one party where he can really, well, be himself.Genre: Fiction, Sci-Fi, Time travel
The year he turns 39, though, the party takes a stressful turn for the worse. Before he even makes it into the grand ballroom for a drink he encounters the body of his forty-year-old self, dead of a gunshot wound to the head. As the older versions of himself at the party point out, the onus is on him to figure out what went wrong--he has one year to stop himself from being murdered, or they're all goners. As he follows clues that he may or may not have willingly left for himself, he discovers rampant paranoia and suspicion among his younger selves, and a frightening conspiracy among the Elders. Most complicated of all is a haunting woman possibly named Lily who turns up at the party this year, the first person besides himself he's ever seen at the party. For the first time, he has something to lose. Here's hoping he can save some version of his own life.
Series: none
Nath: Honestly, I have no idea if I'll ever pick up this book because it's so far out of my comfort zone... but I'm really intrigued by the blurb. So you never know...

It’s the ultimate insurance plan against disaster. Or so she thought. When Addie’s parents ambush her with the news of their divorce, she has to pick who she wants to live with—her father, who is leaving the paranormal compound to live among the “Norms,” or her mother, who is staying in the life Addie has always known. Addie loves her life just as it is, so her answer should be easy. One Search six weeks into the future proves it’s not.
In one potential future, Addie is adjusting to life outside the Compound as the new girl in a Norm high school where she meets Trevor, a cute, sensitive artist who understands her. In the other path, Addie is being pursued by the hottest guy in school—but she never wanted to be a quarterback’s girlfriend. When Addie’s father is asked to consult on a murder in the Compound, she’s unwittingly drawn into a dangerous game that threatens everything she holds dear. With love and loss in both lives, it all comes down to which reality she’s willing to live through... and who she can’t live without.
Series: Pivot Point, Book #1
Nath: This book has an interesting premise and it intrigues me. Again, not sure I'll be picking it up, really depends on the feedback, but it's on my radar :)

As a living descendant of Artemis the Huntress, private investigator Nikki Glass knows how to track someone down—but this time, her latest case leads to unexpected revelations of lies and betrayal...Genre: Urban Fantasy
Series: Nikki Glass, Book #2.5
Nath: Okay, I'm not fond of authors writing novellas in-between full-length novels in a series. I used not to mind, but it's becoming increasingly more frequent and I don't know, it just feels like a ploy for your fans to shell out more money because most of the time, the stories in these novellas don't impact the series at all ^_^; I mean, what's the point then? That being said, I'm most probably going to pick Pros and Cons. I know, I know, I have no will power.

A well-off accountant and a beloved wife and mother, Marta Dickenson doesn't seem the type to be on anyone's hit list. But when Eve and her partner, Peabody, find blood inside the building, the lieutenant knows Marta's murder was the work of a killer who's trained, but not professional or smart enough to remove all the evidence.
But when someone steals the files out of Marta's office, Eve must immerse herself in her billionaire husband Roarke's world of big business to figure out who's cruel and callous enough to hire a hit on an innocent woman. And as the killer's violent streak begins to escalate, Eve knows she has to draw him out, even if it means using herself as bait...
Series: In Death, Book #36
Nath: Is there anything to say? Long-time follower of this series, I'm up-to-date and looking forward to my bi-annual fix LOL. And seriously, there's no author as consistent as Nora Roberts.
published by Harlequin (HQN Books)
Faith Holland left her hometown after being jilted at the altar. Now a little older and wiser, she's ready to return to the Blue Heron Winery, her family's vineyard, to confront the ghosts of her past, and maybe enjoy a glass of red. After all, there's some great scenery there....Genre: Contemporary romance
Like Levi Cooper, the local police chief-and best friend of her former fiancé. There's a lot about Levi that Faith never noticed, and it's not just those deep green eyes. The only catch is she's having a hard time forgetting that he helped ruin her wedding all those years ago. If she can find a minute amidst all her family drama to stop and smell the rose, she just might find a reason to stay at Blue Heron, and finish that walk...
Series: Blue Heron, Book #1
Nath: It seems it's been forever since Ms Higgins' last release... and that might have been a good strategy on her part because I'm really looking forward to The Best Man :) I think Ms Higgins did a great job in her last few books, crossing the line into contemporary romance, and I hope she continues with this one.
Ames: It does feel like it's been forever! Especially since I haven't read her last 3 releases!! I think I'll read this one though. :P
Three Sisters by Susan Mallery
After Andi Gordon is jilted at the altar, she makes the most impetuous decision of her life – buying one of the famed Three Sisters Queen Anne houses on Blackberry Island. Now the proud-ish owner of the ugly duckling of the trio, she plans to open her own pediatric office on the first floor, just as soon as her hunky contractor completes the work. Andi's new future may be coming together, but the truth is she's just as badly in need of a major renovation as her house.Genre: Contemporary romance

Thrown together by fate and geography, and bound by the strongest of friendships, these three women will discover what they're really made of: laughter, tears, love and all.
Series: Blackberry Island, Book #2
Nath: Haven't read the first book, but I've heard good things about Three Sisters. This book sounds more like Women's Fiction/Chick-lit and perhaps that's not a bad thing. I used to really enjoy Ms Mallery's contemporary romance, but it feels like she lost something in the past few years. Perhaps this book will be the one that'll bring back the magic for me...

Nath: This is Ms Echols' first foray into adult fiction and I'm intrigued. I really hope she pulls it off :) Blurb sounds interesting and funny.
Ames: I hope she pulls it off too. I like her writing, so I'm looking forward to this one.
By Love Unveiled by Sabrina Jeffries

In a world where treachery and betrayal reign, a sweet seduction rules their hearts—and dares them to risk their destinies on a passionate love that all the powerful forces of the world cannot defeat.
Series: none
Nath: I'm not super fond of reprints because very often, it's not a good reflection of the author's style anymore... so I think I'm going to wait for reviews for By Love Unveiled before giving it a try. Her next book - What the Duke Desires - though, I'll pick up without hesitation.
Ames: I didn't realize this one was a reprint.
Nath: Yeah, it's a reprint. Apparently, she wrote this book more than twenty years ago under another name, Deborah Martin. However, this version has been revised, so might be worth a try.
published by Harpercollins Publisher (Avon)

Now she has the opportunity to meet her unknown suitor, but it means traveling to Tabitha’s wedding, and into the heart of her family’s sworn enemies. Everyone knows the Seldons are terrible rakes and bounders, but Daphne will risk anything to gain the happiness she is certain is right around the corner.Genre: Historical romance
Lord Henry Seldon is aghast at the latest addition to the house party guest list—one would think after the unforgettable scandal Daphne Dale caused at the duke’s engagement ball, she wouldn’t dare show her face at the duke’s wedding. But here she is, poking her nose where she shouldn’t and driving Henry mad... with an unforgettable passion that will turn enemies into lovers.
Series: Rhymes with Love, Book #2
Nath: Ms Boyle's books are hits and misses for me, but I'm really hoping And the Miss Ran Away with the Rake is a hit because after reading Along Came a Duke, I think it has a lot of potential :)
Ames: I like the title and that cover!
Nath: They're cute, right? ;)
The Duke Diaries by Sophia Nash
After a wild, scandalous night, Rory Lennox, the Duke of Abshire, finds himself in the bed of his sworn enemy’s wholesome sister, Verity Fitzroy. To protect her honor and keep the peace, he agrees to marriage, but it’s an engagement neither is happy about—until unimaginable occurrences make them view the other in a new, passionate light.Genre: Historical romance
Series: Royal Entourage, Book #3
Nath: I like when two persons who don't really like each other have to marry... so perhaps I'll pick this one up. The premise of this series is not bad, but I don't know, something's missing in my opinion.
Ames: I like that kind of set up too. I need to read the other books in this series though. hehe
published by Harpercollins Publisher (Avon)

Ames: Liz Carlyle is another solid historical author and I'm looking forward to this one.

Ames: I enjoy Hoyt's writing and I have the rest of the series, so this is a no brainer.
Also Known As by Robin Benway
Being a 16-year-old safecracker and active-duty daughter of international spies has its moments, good and bad. Pros: Seeing the world one crime-solving adventure at a time. Having parents with super cool jobs. Cons: Never staying in one place long enough to have friends or a boyfriend. But for Maggie Silver, the biggest perk of all has been avoiding high school and the accompanying cliques, bad lunches, and frustratingly simple locker combinations. Then Maggie and her parents are sent to New York for her first solo assignment, and all of that changes. She'll need to attend a private school, avoid the temptation to hack the school's security system, and befriend one aggravatingly cute Jesse Oliver to gain the essential information she needs to crack the case . . . all while trying not to blow her cover.Genre: YA, contemporary
Series: none
Nath: The fact that the heroine is going to act as a spy reminds me of Ally Carter's series, The Gallagher Girls... and I'm interesting to see how Ms Benway will make it hers.
Ames: Hey! This one sounds interesting. Thanks for bringing it to my attention, Nath. :P
Nath: You are welcome my friend :)
published by Simon & Schuster
Lem has ethics in using his magic. Therefore Lem is hungry and broke most of the time.Genre: Urban Fantasy
Ethics in the world of blood magic, however, is a gray area. While Lem will grift his way through life by using small glamours to make $1 bills appear as $20s, enabling him and his none-too-bright pal Mags to eat, he won’t use other people's blood to cast. Stronger spells require more blood, and hardcore magicians use Bleeders or “volunteers” to this end. Not Lem.
So when these down-and-out boon companions encounter a girl kidnapped and marked with magic rune tattoos, it’s not at all clear that they’re powerful enough to save her…or themselves. Turning to his estranged Master for help, it quickly becomes clear to Lem that not only is this beautiful, strange girl’s life all but forfeit, but that the world’s preeminent mage had big, earth-shattering plans for her—and he and Mags just got in the way.
Series: none
Nath: Trickster sounds a bit darker than I'd like but you know me, always on the look-out for new urban fantasy series, which is why this book is on my radar.
Fade to Black by Francis Knight
It’s a city built upwards, not across—where streets are built upon streets, buildings upon buildings. A city that the Ministry rules from the sunlit summit, and where the forsaken lurk in the darkness of Under.Genre: Fantasy
Rojan Dizon doesn’t mind staying in the shadows, because he’s got things to hide. Things like being a pain-mage, with the forbidden power to draw magic from pain. But he can’t hide for ever.
Because when Rojan stumbles upon the secrets lurking in the depths of the Pit, the fate of Mahala will depend on him using his magic. And unlucky for Rojan—this is going to hurt.
Series: Rojan Dizon, Book #1
Nath: Again, another book that sounds very dark, but that could be awesome. Will be looking for reviews :)

What about you? What books are you looking forward to? Any books we should be adding to this list? :)
5 comments:
The Annie Grace looks really good, I'll have to watch out for it. I've read the MacNamara and LOVED it.
I'm really looking forward to the Jennifer Echols and the Kristan Higgins. I've got high hopes for both books so woo hoo!
Thanks for the list ladies.
You both have some interesting ones in this list!
I'm keen to check out the Echols (didn't realise she was venturing into adult fiction) and the Robin Benway one sounds intriguing as well. Though I've to admit I'm not the biggest fan of the Ally Carter series.
Lisa - I like the setting of the new series of Anne Gracie, so I'm hoping I'll enjoy this one! :)
Good to know about the MacNamara. I'll put it on my radar then :)
Rowena - Me too, Wena!! :) Crossing fingers and knocking on wood :P Although I probably should have more faith LOL.
Li - Always, Li! LOL.
It's interesting about Echols going adult fiction. Nice change from all the authors doing opposite (adult to YA).
I like the feel of the Ally Carter's series, but it's the story. So I hope the Robin Benway is different enough :)
I'll be reading Crystal Cove [Kleypas] and The Best Man [Higgins] for sure.. and I have A Most Scandalous Proposal [MacNamara] on my list, too, because Lisa loved it.
