About Jen

I am happily married to a wonderful man and mother to 3 crazy kids. My major escape from the craziness at home is usually in a book. Preferably of the romance variety with a broody, alpha hero. I am also a huge sports fan. The St. Louis Cardinals have been my team since my grandpa introduced me to baseball at the tender age of birth. Go Cardinals!!

Stranded With A Billionaire Jessica Clare

It is probably not a secret that I like books with billionaires.  I read a lot of them.  I can’t help it and I don’t want to help it.  I saw Stranded with a Billionaire getting a lot of buzz so I decided to try it.  First of all, billionaire is in the title!  Second [...]

Earlier this week on Twitter, Kati (@KatiD) asked what one or two authors did people have that they could always count on.  Like when you started their books, you knew you would end them satisfied.  I thought it was an excellent question and, for me, not a very difficult one.  I had four authors immediately [...]

Review: The Chocolate Rose by Laura Florand

The Chocolate Rose by Laura Florand

Not too long ago I read The Chocolate Kiss by Laura Florand and fell in love with her writing.  Her use of food and cooking to describe a scene or even the unfolding relationship is a thing of beauty.  So when The Chocolate Rose was offered there was no way I was going to pass it up. [...]

Review: Hunter by Jacquelyn Frank / Jax

Hunter by Jacquelyn Frank / Jax

I have such a strange relationship with Jacquelyn Frank books.  Sometimes I love them, sometimes not so much.  Hunter is written under her pseudonym, Jax, that she uses when she wants to write books that are hotter than mainstream titles.  Mainstream seems to be no holds barred lately so I was curious how raunchy this book was going [...]

Mini Review: When I’m With You Part VIII: When We Are One by Beth Kery

When We Are One (When I'm With You #8) by Beth Kery

Oh, that tricky Ms. Kery.  If you have been following my mini reviews then you know that I am quite hooked on Ian and Francesca.  I scour the pages for the slightest mention of their names.  Part VIII, the final installment to When I’m With You, was all about Ian and Francesca but not in the way I have [...]
