Duty To Protect by Beth Cornelison

4 Stars...

Duty To Protect by Beth Cornelison is an emotionally charged new Silhouette Romantic Suspense dealing with the sensitive subject of domestic abuse. I felt that the author handled this story in a sensitive and compassionate but also realistic manner...

I found the story to be a fast paced and exciting page-turner filled with with action and suspense. The two main characters Ginny and Riley are very likable and engaging . But at the same time they are both troubled by past events in their lives that may affect their ability to find love and happiness with each other...


Crisis counselor Ginny West confronted danger every day. But when a bomb blast trapped her in a burning building, she never thought she'd make it out alive.

Just in time, Riley Sinclair rescued her from the deadly blaze. The ruggedly sensual firefighter awoke a different danger, arousing a need that rocked her to her core.

Riley had risked his life to save Ginny. And he'd do it again. Yet even as he swore to keep her safe, he couldn't reveal his tragic secret. Until desire ignited…and a violent stalker came after Ginny. Riley knew he had to share the truth about his painful past…or jeopardize his duty to protect her.

The Chocolate Heiress by Shari Thayn

5 Stars...

The Chocolate heiress is a wonderfully fun blend of mystery, suspense, misunderstandings, amnesia, and above all else love...

Zoe Jones loves bright colors, short skirts and chocolate, she's also madly in love with Martin O'Neil who doesn't seem to notice just how gorgeous and sexy his late wife's best friend really is. Or so she thinks...

It's been three years since the death of his wife and during that time Martin has tried to be both mother and father to his little girl while at the same running his own business. And he's just starting to realize that most of that wouldn't be possible if not for his fun and sexy friend Zoe...

Who exactly is Zoe Jones?

Full of life. Unpredictable. Supermodel looks. Zoe is a far stretch from anybody’s idea of a typical anything, and much too “big city” for the small town of Grand River. She’s also developed a fondness for Martin that just might rival chocolate, and for the first time in her life she feels as if she really belongs somewhere. Well, sort of!

Once married to Zoe’s old college roommate, Martin O’Neil has a little dilemma on his hands. See, Zoe is his daughter’s favorite person and the one woman on the planet who makes his own heart turn flips. Is taking advantage of a case of temporary amnesia a dirty trick or an absolute necessity? Either way, he just might be the one in for one dangerously sweet surprise.
