W...W...W...(16)

W...W...W...Wednesdays is a weekly meme MizB of Should Be Reading

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?



So, here's my answers:
*Click on the covers to read excerpts/learn more.*
What are you currently reading?
Serendipity by Carly Phillips. Yeah, I know it seems like I've been reading this book forever. But I've had to get a few review books under my belt. This one was a leisure book. I'm 2/3 of the way done.

A Touch of Crimson by Sylvia Day. Yes, this one I've been reading forever too. The galley makes me go cross eyed, the way it's formatted. I'm almost done with it though. This book releases 10/4 so be on the lookout!


What did you recently finish reading?
Every Scandalous Secret by Gayle Callen. Review pending on this one. The heroine was a total spitfire. She held her own against the hero. This is the third book of the Scandalous Lady series and we finally find out who the real nude model is. We also find out who wins the wager among the 2 sisters and their cousin, and the 3 gentlemen friends who find them sneaking in trying to steal the nude painting off the wall at a gentleman's club.


Mistress by Mistake by Maggie Robinson. A second read through of this book. I read it earlier this year. It's still hot. The heroine is still a sassy spinster. The hero still has super magical appendages. Read my review here.

A Midnight Dance by Lila DiPasqua. Oh my stars! By far, my favorite twist in the re-telling of the CINDERELLA story. Jules de Moutier is my new favorite hero. This book is a scorcher. Like short circuit your e-reader hot.

The Making of a Duchess by Shana Galen. Okay, so I sort of read the series backwards. This is the first book in Ms. Galen's Sons of the Revolution series. There's a character in this book that ties in Galen's latest, Lord and Lady Spy. Review pending on this one also.

What do you think you’ll read next?
Bound in Lingerie by Gina Gordon. Yup. I've had this on the list of to read next for a few weeks. I'm finally going to get around it since Ms. Gordon will be guest posting next month. The cover is sexy. 


*stares at giant TBR pile and shudders* So many books, so little time. Choices, choices.

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?



So, here's my answers:
• What are you currently reading?
Every Scandalous Secret by Gayle Callen. The final conclusion to the "Scandalous Lady" trilogy involving a scandalously nude lady of Society in a painting, 3 gentleman friends and 2 sisters and their cousin. A game of passion, discovery and mystery. Ms. Callen will be on the blog next month so be on the lookout.

Serendipity by Carly Phillips. A fabulous pink cover (I'm a cover ho), a story of second chances, a woman ready to move on from news worthy scandal and a bad boy hell bent on making things right. What more could you ask for?

• What did you recently finish reading?
Real Men Will by Victoria Dahl. Okay, so this book doesn't release until late October but it sure put a smile on my face. A wonderful ending to the Donovan Brothers Brewery trilogy. This one is a scorcher! No kidding. It's always the quiet ones... Be on the lookout for my review.

• What do you think you’ll read next?
Bound in Lingerie by Gina Gordon. A sexy cover (Imma cover ho. Sue me.) and the author will be stopping by the blog next month.

In Pursuit of a Scandalous Lady by Gayle Callen. I guess I'm reading this trilogy backwards but according to Ms. Callen's site, the books can be read out of order. Evidently, the events in the books overlap each other so this will be great.

W...W...W...Wednesdays is a weekly meme MizB of Should Be Reading

To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?



So, here's my answers:

What are you currently reading?
Bad Boys Do by Victoria Dahl. Hellooo Jamie Donovan. Hot for teacher.
Start Me Up by Victoria Dahl. Yes, another one. I've been slowly reading this book. Take a hot lady mechanic, put her together with a focused architect and you get an explosive story.  
Serendipity by Carly Phillips. Ah yes. The story of the one that got away but a second chance is in the cards. A story of the disgraced daughter whose father headed a ponzi scheme and the bad boy who left his family to be taken in by the state. 
A Touch of Crimson by Sylvia Day. Still reading slowly through this one too. 

What did you recently finish reading?
Changing the Game by Jaci Burton. Whoa! Hot smexing with a younger baseball player alert. Prepare to get your panties melted off. Elizabeth Darnell has finally been redeemed from THE PERFECT PLAY. She was a total beeyotch in that one but Ms. Burton found a way to make me feel for her in this book.
Lord and Lady Spy by Shana Galen. Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Regency style. You must read this. Words cannot even begin to describe my feelings for it. It's sexy, it's heart tugging, adrenaline pumping, totally unputdownable.

What do you think you’ll read next?
Romancing the Countess by Ashley March. I've been chomping at the bit to read this since the snippets came out on her site months ago. The hero and heroine's spouses were carrying on an affair. If that doesn't intrigue you, I don't know what will.

So, here's my answers:
• What are you currently reading?
Changing the Game by Jaci Burton. Holy hotness! Elizabeth was a total bitch in THE PERFECT PLAY. This book is her redemption, with Gavin, Mick's younger brother. This should prove to be a bit awkward.
A Touch of Crimson by Sylvia Day. There's angels, er Sentinels. There are fallen angels aka vampires. There are lycans, indentured servants to the Sentinels. Got that? Now on to the complicated part. The head Sentinel, Adrian, has found the soul of his one true love in a mortal woman's body. He must save her before she dies. Again.

Serendipity by Carly Phillips. Second chances...

Start Me Up by Victoria Dahl. There's a little bit of tying up going on. Kinky.

• What did you recently finish reading?
The Making of a Gentleman by Shana Galen. Um, I won 3 copies of this book and I'm only getting around to reading it now?! It's a wonderful story. 
Romancing Lady Cecily by Ashley March. A novella which sets up ROMANCING THE COUNTESS (9/6/11). It's sexy, full of emotion and a bit mysterious, all in 15,000 words. 
Playing with Fire: Forbidden & Tangled by Karen Erickson. 2 books. Both stories complete scorchers. This is not for the faint of heart.

• What do you think you’ll read next?
Bad Boys Do by Victoria Dahl. I read GOOD GIRLS DON'T, which is the first book in the Donovan Brothers Brewery series, and LOVED IT! Looking forward to seeing if Jamie will finally find the woman to curb his wild streak. ***requested from NetGalley***

• What are you currently reading? 
Touch of Crimson by Sylvia Day
Adriaaannnnn!!! Can a love that transcends death survive a war between angels, vampires, and lycans? 
We'll find out... 
Start Me Up by Victoria Dahl
Ok. So I was reading this last week and I should have finished it by now. I kind of dropped it and finished IN BED WITH A HIGHLANDER by Maya Banks. Sorry V.Dahl. This is a very sexy, sexy book AND there might be a little tying up going on. HOT!


• What did you recently finish reading?
Lessons in Indiscretion by Karen Erickson
Karen's first historical. The cover is gorgeous and this is my first Karen Erickson book. It was a fun, fast and sexy read. Karen was on Romance Lately last night.
In Bed with a Highlander by Maya Banks
I dropped trew and gave highlanders some love. This was such a great gateway back to reading books about highlanders. An alpha hero, a spunky heroine who has a tendency to blurt out whatever is in her head and a power hungry Laird who will stop at nothing to gain access to the dowry of the spunky heroine. Oh yes, and there's fighting and hot loving.


Growing Up Colt: A Father, A Son, a Life in Football by Colt and Brad McCoy, Mike Yorkey
This is a HUGE change for me. I was totally out of my ever loving Aggie mind. This basically starts off with Colt talking about his first game starting against the Pittsburg Steelers and then goes on to give an overview of his family history, his birth (born in New Mexico over Texas soil in a shoe box), his childhood, his siblings, his school days, his career at the University of Texas, getting drafted in the NFL and marrying his wife (washing of his wife's feet on their wedding night-TMI?). Interspersed are bible verses. Part how to, part memoir, it's a good read.


• What do you think you’ll read next?
Serendipity by Carly Phillips
I swear I am going to read this book next. I've been saying it for the past couple of weeks.
Romancing Lady Cecily by Ashley March
A novella which ties in with Ashley's ROMANCING THE COUNTESS (release date: 9/6). Speaking of, she's on my blog today. Welcome Ashley!

So, here's my answers:


• What are you currently reading?
In Bed with a Highlander by Maya Banks. Whoa! Why have I not read her before? This is her new highlander trilogy. After spending time at RomCon11 ogling highlanders, I thought this book was appropriate for the occasion. This is an ARC.


Start Me Up by Victoria Dahl. This is the 2nd book in V.Dahl's Tumble Creek series and let me tell you, this woman has got me hooked. I'm spending a little more time in the contemporary world.


• What did you recently finish reading?
Good Girls Don't by Victoria Dahl. What?! Another Victoria Dahl book. Heck yes! Be on the lookout for a review of this book. Absolutely hilarious and I have a new appreciation for law men. There's something about a man in a shoulder holster that gets me all hot and bothered. This was from NetGalley.


Giving Chase by Lauren Dane. Once again, I'm a roll of trying new to me authors. This book was awesome! And let me tell you, that Alex guy was CREEPY and slightly VERY disturbing.


Loving On Borrowed Time by Olivia Cunning. The first in her Lover's Leap series. I met Ms. Cunning at RomCon11 and she's just so nice and sweet. She even gave me a bookmark which had a code for this book. This was fun, quick and easy read. A bit of a cliffhanger or sorts but then again, it makes you want to read the next book. Duh!


Talk Me Down by Victoria Dahl. The first in her Tumble Creek series. Loved it! Once again, I have a new appreciation for law men. Just saying.


A Little Harmless Sex by Melissa Schroeder. Whoa! This book should come with a panty liner. HOT! HOT! HOT! I also met Ms. Schroeder at RomCon11. She even had a luau. With a good looking man in a pink sarong. 






• What do you think you’ll read next?
Serendipity by Carly Phillips. Why yes, she was also at RomCon11. Whoa! I'm on a RomCon11 author kick. Sort of.


There's quite a few review books that I have to get to. So most likely, I'll be reading one of those next.

Just the Sexiest Man Alive by Julie James. Okay so I've got this on audio. I've been listening to this on my morning walks and I'm sure all those people I've passed think I'm a loon for grinning and laughing. Jason and Taylor are just so fun together. AND, Julie James will be at RomCon11. Squee!
