Best Book
The Truth About Roxy, by Jenny Gilliam ☆☆☆☆☆
Contemporary, spicy
Roxy Palmer is a walking, breathing cliché. And darned tired of it. Working as the assistant librarian in her small, Southern home town, Roxy also anonymously pens the local love column, ASK PAULA ROCKWELL--Thorton, Georgia's answer to Dear Abby. But when the door leading to Roxy's lifetime dream is slammed in her face by one of the good ol' boys, Roxy brings out the big guns--and turns the genteel town upside down with her racier, feminist, home-wrecking new format. Paula Rockwell is making Sheriff Noah Kennedy's life crazy. More…
“I absolutely loved The Truth About Roxy. With great characters and an absorbing plot it is definitely a keeper.” – Lilac, Long and Short Reviews …full review

“Ms. Robinson has a way with telling a story that grabs you immediately and entertains her readers the entire time they’re reading. I would highly recommend this story and I eagerly look forward to reading more work from this author.” – Diana Coyle, Night Owl Romance …full review

Do You Hear What I Hear?, by Teri Wilson ☆☆☆☆☆
Paranormal, sweet
As a child, Simone Littleton adores the European folktale that animals are given the gift of speech at midnight on Christmas Eve. She makes a wish to talk to animals "forever and ever" and, when her pet Dalmatian asks her for a biscuit, she discovers her wish has been granted. Now Simone is all grown up and she uses her unique gift to rehabilitate unwanted horses. When racehorse trainer Chet Wallace rolls into San Antonio, with chocolate eyes and dimples blazing beneath his black Stetson, romantic sparks fly. More…
“I was totally charmed by this book from the first page. Teri Wilson creates a wonderful slate of characters, human, canine and equine, that grab your heart and won’t let go.” – Crystal, CK2S Kwips and Kritiques …full review

Heart of Stone, by Sandra Kay ☆☆☆☆☆
Contemporary (Western), spicy
A marriage in name only. A secret past. Can love be found amid the tangle of distrust and betrayal? Alone and pregnant with twins, Amber Wilson has only a fuzzy memory of how she got that way. One thing she knows for sure—no man will ever get near enough to hurt her again. But when she meets Stone Brandon, the attraction is too great to ignore. Stone’s ex-fiancée’s betrayal has hardened his heart. Though he is drawn to Amber, he knows he can never fall in love again. More…
“Sandra Kay has written a great story that draws the reader in from the beginning and keeps them there with her ability to bring her characters to life. She makes this a keeper.” – Sandra, The Romance Studio …full review

The Laird’s Lady, by Patti Shenberger ☆☆☆☆☆
Paranormal, spicy
Much to her surprise, Devin Noone inherits a Scottish Castle and with it the title of Lady.
