What’s Like Hot Whiskey?
A voice–hot and potent–is apparently like hot whiskey, as described in Night Shift, book 1 of Nora Roberts’ Night Tales Series. Originally published in the early 1990’s, the first two books of the series have been repackaged in a two-for-one special entitled, Exposed (2016). Read the full review.
Do Not Talk to the Police Without Your Attorney Present
I know You People are too smart to take legal advice from a popular but formulaic writer of romantic suspense novels. I do worry though, that there are people out there who would.

Plus, I prefer my books […]

Going through his papers, she finds evidence not only that he cheated on her, […]
Couple of Comfort Reads
Here, have a review about two recent (ish) stand alones by the ever popular and uber-prolific Nora Roberts. Of whom I am a huge, unashamed fan. Her books are often comfort reads for me – I know somewhere, in the midst of whatever nonsense is flourishing, there will some sort of happy ending, and that’s reassuring in a way I can’t really explain. Other readers complain about the formulaic nature of some of Roberts’ work (particularly when it comes to trilogies), but – for me, […]
