Atunah's Romance Haus
Atunah's Romance Haus rated it 12 years ago
This one is a bit difficult for me to rate and write a review. The h/H have some bizarre conversations here. Not sure if bizarre is the right word, their verbal ping pong matches are bizarre, brilliant and wtf, all at the same time. There is this connection between them on a intellectual level I gue...

Ok, so I have to admit that I was a bit sceptical of this particular plot, but as Sophie Jordan made it work in Once Upon a Wedding Night, I was willing to give it a shot. There's something that has been drawing me to Scottish men lately. Might be the kilts...Anyway. Virginia is in a desperate situa...

Have you ever noticed that book plots are cyclical? I sometimes wonder how that works. I wonder whether it is a publisher, editor, or totally an author thing. Normally I find this frustrating, but when an author rises above all of the others, when she writes as Ms. Ranney does, well, all the others ...

Loved this one. The tortured hero, the curious heroine, I loved both of them. Really from the beginning, I could feel that they were meant for each other. Karen Ranney knows how to write emotional charged scenes, in and out of the bed. That is how you do it. I read this one in almost one sitting. It...

I have really enjoyed this author over the years, and even though I haven't read too many of her books, I was very delighted to get a chance to get a copy of this ARC through Avon and Edelweiss. I think out of all of books I have had the pleasure of reading from this author, this one would be at the...

3.5 stars.This book is the first in a planned series called “Clan Sinclair,” but you won’t find kilts or bagpipes or wee bonnie lasses in this mid-Victorian setting. Macrath Sinclair is a Scotsman who has worked his way up from newsboy to prosperous owner of a printing business in Edinburgh. Macrath...

This hit all the right spots with me. The beauty and the beast like story where we have the heroine and not the hero badly scarred. Her face now a mess, she hides behind a veil and the world. And she is confronted with the fact that she really just wasn't a very nice person and everyone just knew he...

Full review at Tempting ReadsCatriona was a hot mess. She whined, she complained, she threw fits. How could her life have gone so down hill; what would she do with herself now that she was no longer pretty! With each page turn, I wanted to slap her so hard and say "Bitch please!" I haven't bee...

Ah Highlanders... yep, you know I jumped at a chance to read this one. However, although he was technically a highlander, no kilts to be had. No checking to see what was worn underneath one. *sigh* Still, I was in the mood for a historical romance so on I read.I have to admit I had several problems ...
