March '03

ONE WAY OUT is the second book in the Brotherhood series.....and it is more than FANTASTIC! Joey Masado is an influential man in Chicago, the owner and power behind Masado Towers, he is a force to be reckoned with. When his brother brings information to him that he has a son with a woman he had shared a passionate night with three years before, his Italian possessiveness kicks in.

Rhea Williams left Chicago, thinking the man she loved was promised in marriage to an Italian heiress. Now, a single mother to a young son, she lives in Key West, Florida. On a night when she is most needed as a nurse, she comes back to her room to find her child missing, but the silver cross on her pillow reveals his father has finally discovered the child's existence. The carefully left-behind token is enough to send her rushing back to Chicago to face a man that surely will be furious with her for keeping her precious secret.

Once again Wendy Rosnau has swept me away with her sultry writing style. ONE WAY OUT is packed with non-stop Chicago action, memorable secondary characters you hope to see in the future, and intense sexual heat between the main characters that will leave you breathless. Joey Masado is an extremely fantastic "can-not-forget" Italian hero......fatherhood definitely becomes him. The final saga in the Brotherhood series was set up quite nicely in this story too......look for LAST MAN STANDING in June '03.

This story was wonderful!! It is very well detailed, which gives me much more enjoyment in a book. From the hero's pecan colored hair, intense pewter eyes, to his fascination with the heroine's belly button ring. He was an awesome Cajun hero! THE COP NEXT DOOR is fantastically written.

This hero and heroine's story was very fascinating, as emotional as it is endearing. I could not put it down from start to finish. It is most definitely a highly recommended military romance!!

From page one I was hooked by this ultra sexy romance. The heroine Catherine knows what she wants and goes after it with a no-bars held attitude. She is a down to earth gal that I found very likeable. And the hero Luke himself was definitely a man any woman would love to have for her own just as Catherine does. He was hard to resist with his sexy charm and his determination to fight his baser instincts in the name of honor. This story is flat out awesome....most assuredly a KEEPER!!

Wow this book was fantastic! Ryland & Margo were lovers two years before but he had broken it off for reasons very important to him. But as soon they come together again....you can feel the heat between them. They are so obviously perfect for each other but danger is determined to keep them apart.

Sweet Bride of Revenge
Silh Romance #1300
Suzanne Carey
June '98

This was a very good story but it was way too short! I was so engrossed in it, that the ending came much too soon. The heroine Nora Braet confronts a foreign businessman whom is negotiating a hostile take-over of her family's company, which has caused her dear aunt to develop severe heart problems. Seiji (pronounced say-gee) Anderson is half Japanese and wants revenge for a wrong bestowed on his mother many years ago. He requests Nora's hand in marriage for an absolution of the injustice to his family's honor. Most of the book was set in Japan and I very much enjoyed the telling of the beliefs and customs of this culture. Fantastic book!

Manhunting in Mississippi
Harl Temptation #685
Stephanie Bond
June '98

This book is the best of the five in the Manhunting series. It has humor and romance which to most readers is an unbeatable combination. Piper Sheperd is a dessert specialist that works for a company that is hired to create a unique masterpiece for restuarant owner Ian Bentley. The food allergies they both have creates several hilarous scenes that kept me laughing. And the love scenes are very erotic, giving new meaning to cooking in the kitchen. This story is fantastic and refreshing. Highly recommended....it is definitely on my keeper shelf!

The Overnight Alibi
Silh Intimate Moment #848
Marilyn Pappano
Apr '98

This story was so much more than I expected it to be. Told strictly from the hero's point of view in the beginning, which is what hooked me right away, was a welcome change from the ordinary. Mick Reilly, whom is seperated from his wife, a divorce pending, is entranced with a lovely young woman he meets in a bar and she persuades him to an out of town motel, where they spend an incredible night of sex. The next morning he is charged with the murder of his soon-to-be ex-wife and knowing he did not do it, he gives the police his alibi and the story takes off with a blast. Hannah Clark, his partner in lust from the night before, can not be found and the room they had spent the night in appears to have been vacant for quite a while. It is a race to prove his innocence and although it is revealed quite early in the story whom the real murderer is, I was still captivated with this story. Interesting relatives and all. Great book!
