Sir John Penlyon is planning to spend Christmas at his estate with his niece and his friend Danby, the closest thing he has to family since disowning his daughter years ago. (She eloped with the parson, who was, of course, penniless.) Danby suggests that at Christmastime the estate needs the presence of small children, and offers to find some - the “hirelings” - despite Sir John’s skepticism. Three children duly arrive, and the youngest, precocious four year-old Moppet, quickly endears herself to Sir John.

Delightful Gender Twist on the beloved Peter Pan
Revisado: 10-31-18
This is my second book by this author and I'm really enjoying the fun lighthearted spins she puts on books! Petra, the female Peter Pan character is delightful! She's spunky and feisty and Tinker her fairy counterpart is hilarious!
I really liked the twist with the male wendy character, Eirwen Darling. he was sweet and fun too and a perfect foil for Petra's spunkiness.
I also loved the sort of Arthurian legend twist too! That was fresh and different! :)

Another fun romance
Revisado: 07-28-18
This is the second book I've read from the author. The first was Handsome and the Yeti which was a delight! This book was just as sweet and funny! I love how the author KuroKoneko puts a new fresh spin on love stories and she has a very natural, easy and fun voice! I just love her characters. They make me giggle in the best way!

A nerdy gemologist - Bellamy ‘Belle’ DeWinter - ends up the prisoner of a narcissistic yeti named Abigail Snow, who lives in a sparkling mansion made entirely out of blue quartz and whose loyal servants are living statues made out of semiprecious stones. When Bellamy starts to think the yeti girl might actually be kind of cute, he freaks out about his unsettling case of Stockholm Syndrome but decides to man up and help Abigail find a way to break the curse.

Delightful, fresh twist on a classic tale
Revisado: 07-28-18
I absolutely love a beauty and the beast retelling and this one was especially fun! Instead of a girl Belle, we have a male in her place, and the beast is actually a girl who's been cursed into the body of a yeti! The humor is delightful and light and the romance was real and sweet!! I can't wait to read more from this author!

Delightful, seductive and intriguing!
Revisado: 04-18-18
What made the experience of listening to The Caress of a Commander the most enjoyable?
I loved the wide range of secondary characters that were fully fleshed out that gave such life to the story!
What other book might you compare The Caress of a Commander to and why?
I feel like the author really reminded me of any of the Georgette Heyer regency romances. There was this charm to the tone and characters that felt timeless and delightful!
Which scene was your favorite?
That's hard to pick! I really liked WIlliam and his brother Stephen together in most scenes, their brother relationship was just so sweet and endearing! And of course the chemistry of the romance was perfect!!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
YES! I got it all done in one day because i couldn't put it down!
Any additional comments?
I'm looking forward to more books from this author!

Two weeks ago, two of the dreamiest men I've ever seen moved in across the street. Ever since then, I've been obnoxiously aware of every little noise I hear coming from next door. Every sound is a chance that they might be outside working on one of their cars in their driveway or mowing the lawn shirtless. Yummy. Looking is all I can do though. They're both way out of my league. One a gorgeous blond with a swimmer's build. The other a ruggedly handsome brunette with the most delicious five o'clock shadow. And then there's me, average at best. Never in a million years did I think they would show up on my front doorstep. And what they want is far from conventional.

Revisado: 03-26-18
What made the experience of listening to Two Much for You the most enjoyable?
The story was fun and engaging and sexy! The narrator did a fantastic job for the male voices too!
What did you like best about this story?
I loved the characters. They all felt real and relatable which is hard to do for such a short story and a story with polyamory. I really identified with the heroine Rose and adored the heroes!!
Which character – as performed by Meghan Kelly – was your favorite?
I really loved the two guys. She made them sound sexy and confidant and charming!
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Probably the moments where you see each of the three people question if they are ready for a relationship that serious. i felt completely captivated by listening to them all come to their realizations that a relationship could work!

Sexy, fun shifter romance!
Revisado: 07-08-16
Where does Your Wild Heart rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Pretty high up there. It was a well blended combination of good writing, good storytelling and wonderful narration.
What other book might you compare Your Wild Heart to and why?
Suzanne Wright's Phoenix Pack series because they both are great stories that have realistic depictions of wolves and a believable enjoyable romance story line.
Have you listened to any of Max Martin’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
I haven't listened to him before but I would love to listen to new books now. His voice is smooth and delightful and just the right pace.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
"Werewolves have never been so fun..."
Any additional comments?
I'm hoping that they'll soon put the rest of Dena Garson's Black Hills pack on Audio so I can binge read the entire series!

Thanks to paper-thin walls and the guy’s athletic prowess, Carolyn is gaining an - um - intimate knowledge of her new neighbor's nocturnal adventures. And since Caroline is currently on a self-imposed "dating hiatus," and her neighbor is clearly lethally attractive to women, she finds her fantasies keep her awake even longer than the noise. So when the wallbanging threatens to literally bounce her out of bed, Caroline, clad in sexual frustration and a pink baby-doll nightie, confronts Simon Parker, her heard-but-never-seen neighbor.

Addictive Sci-fi Romance at it's best!
Revisado: 08-18-14
Would you listen to Close Liaisons again? Why?
YES! Gosh, yes. It kept me spellbound and I couldn't stop listening to it! I finished it in just three days.
What other book might you compare Close Liaisons to and why?
It's a bit like Anna Zaires's contemporary book Twist Me but a little less dark. It's also a little like Fifty Shades of Gray with it's "obssession" sort of romance which I really enjoy.
Which scene was your favorite?
there were too many to count, but pretty much any time the hero and heroine interacted, i was really enjoying the book.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Yes, when the heroine Mia believes that her involvement in the human resistance moved resulting in thousands of soldiers getting killed when she was used as a pawn, but then she discovers the soldiers were knocked out, not killed. I was right there with her, panicking and wondering if they were dead and then so relieved to find out they hadn't died.
Any additional comments?
This was just a fantastic read and I can't wait to read the next two in the trilogy!
