***ARC provided by publisher through NetGalley*** I can't believe I succeeded in reading it. Really, a feat worthy of Hercules if you ask me. Well, it started out okay. Good premise, very Harlequin-like secretive hero, very Harlequin-like heroine, very Harlequin-like plot...Unfortunately, when tha...
I am so loving Ainslie Paton's books right now. Her characters are likable, smart, nice, have common sense (mostly), and I believe in their HEAs. Only a few things kept me from rating a solid 4 or 5-stars. Bailey (Bails) and Aiden (Aid) have an 'almost' encounter two years before they actually mee...
I really enjoyed this page-turner of story by Ainslie Patton! I heard about her book on twitter, read a few blogs about it, it seemed interesting so I snapped it up. I should say, first off, that I wasn't overly impressed with our hero Will. He's sneaky and standoffish, really underhanded and uses h...
I hate spoilers, which makes this a damn difficult review to write. I want to talk about the story's twists and turns, and about the hero. You're in for one hell of a journey with Will.Darcy is a genuine heroine. Not perfect, but not TSTL. She has reasons for everything she does, and she owns the co...

At the beginning I found it hard to get into the story, and it wasn't until the last half that I started to feel anything for the characters. The heroine more then lived up to her name as the 'Ice Queen' throughout the book...
Why was I surprised? I don't really know. Maybe because I have never heard of the author. Maybe because I don't remember buying this which means it was either really cheap or free. Maybe because I don't think grease is romantic.But let me tell you, this was a story that I immersed myself in. I ...
2.5 StarsPoorly edited and unnecessarily long, which was part of the editing problems. I didn't dislike the story and I found the characters interesting, but the issues were too distracting. Basically: competent author; mediocre publisher.
I can't believe I forgot to write a review for this book. I loved it heaps when I picked it up and read it in one sitting. Grease Monkey Jive was one of the first romances by an Australian author that I read and it totally converted me. I fell in love with her hero within the first couple of pages a...
