I have both of the new Bijou Hunter books (Badlands and Shellshock), P.Dangelico's newest (Nothing But Wild) and Lani Lynn Vale's newest (Just Kidding) but haven't read them yet. For some reason I'm stuck (always) with rereads...

I have so many new books and seems I get in a slump and only rereads can help me out of them.

Lin , to many books not enough hours !📖

Well, and the fact that I keep running into books I remember I liked but haven't read in years, so I reread.

speaking of rereading & Krentz, I reread In Too Deep (Bk 1 of the Looking Glass Trilogy), then I moved to Quicksilver (bk 2) and am now in Canyons of Night (#3) of the set, #10, 11 & 12 of the Arcane Series. I thought I'd had enough Arcane; I know a lot of us talked that way, but In Too Deep ended with another bad guy & gal, then Quicksilver ends with a mention that others wanted to see the Jones' fall (altho we know they don't in that era & leading up to modern) and I'm wanting more Arcane stories!! But JAK says she's done with Arcane. Ah well, I'll think positive: the Jones' always win!! Now, after Canyons of Night do I go back & reread the Burning Lamp set or move on & reread Copper Beach...? Decisions, decisions...

I've also been stuck. I just finished rereading all of the MacKenzie's books by Linda Howard. Wolf is still one of my top favorite Heroes. Then I reread parts of Duncan's Bride by the same author.

I did start a new book today Brace for Impact by Janice Kay Johnson. So far, it's a decent read but with the problem a lot of Harlequin Intrigue authors have. The h is severely injured including broken bones, and yet she's climbing her way off a mountain, running from bad guys, and kissing the H when they lie down to sleep despite her raging fever. Harlequin authors sure love to torture their injured h's.

I also did a bit of rereading, Jayne Fresina's The Peculiar Folly of Long-Legged Meg and enjoyed it once again. After that, I read Erica Ridley's Wish Upon a Duke, also a good read with a believable ending. Now, I'm reading a Mary Lancaster story, Vienna Waltz from my tbr pile. It's really good, so far, but while not quite as bad as a Russian novel, we do have some characters with names that seem unusual for this American reader. It takes place during the Vienna Congress, the peace conference that was held after Napoleon's defeat. We have a really good H and h in the story, IMO. It's another of those books I didn't remember I had up in the Cloud somewhere.

Duncan's Bride is one of my absolute favorites by Linda Howard; probably of all of my authors! I remember laughing like a loon when I first read it as she chased the chicken (yep, done that!), and worrying when the blizzard hit! I knew it would all come right in the end, but still; severe cold like that, not good!!! And yeah, Wolf is a wonderful Hero!

I just finished reading Jess Michaels's latest release A Reluctant Bride. It's a trilogy about triplet girls. I really enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next two. Luckily it won't be that long of a long wait. The next book comes out 2/4 and the third on 3/3. I'm going to wait to read the rest of the series till the last book releases in March. Book one can be read as a stand alone but I like to read series' all together if I can. Also, the villain in book 1 becomes the H in book 3 so I don't want to wait to read how that happens.

Now I'm rereading One Reckless Summer by Toni Blake.

I finished reading Vienna Waltz by Mary Lancaster and liked it a lot. It takes place during the Congress of Vienna after the defeat of Napoleon. We have a dashing hero, Johnny (one of his several names), and Lizzie, a charming h. There are several secondary characters, including a rambunctious dog, that add to the action. This is a "clean" story, but romantic with humor, mystery and a bit of danger.

Thanks bonnieg for alerting me to a series set during the Vienna Congress. It's been a long time since I've read anything from that time.

lush I've read a lot of romance books that deal with the war with Napoleon, but never anything about actually being in Vienna at that time. It was interesting to learn a bit about what it was like then. Vienna Waltz is a KU, but I can also lend it, if you would be interested sometime.

Actually, I'm jumping between her Krentz books and her Castle books.

Thank you for the offer, but I picked it up yesterday for $1.30 from Amazon Australia. Very well timed.
