Devil in Winter
Lisa Kleypas
Book Three, with Evie Jenner and rake/kidnapper-of-Lillian, Viscount St. Vincent. Hm. There were moments in the book that I had to wonder whether this really is Evie Jenner, the “painfully shy” wallflower from the previous books. It seems she just started to fit in the romance heroine mold when it was her turn to be married to a cad. I did like the part where St. Vincent is in his deathbed. And, hm, but I didn’t like Lillian very much here. I have to ask this question: what now, after the end? Do they continue to live in the gambling house? Where will their children live? Gahd.

Secrets of a Summer Night
Lisa Kleypas
Book One of Kleypas’ Wallflower Series, with Annabelle and Simon Hunt. It was good, but not exactly her best. Although I was teary-eyed at the end, after the foundry incident.

Something Wild
Shannon McKenna
Hello Mr. Hot Architect Bicycle Dude. Although it starts implausible – here is depressed woman being stalked by unbelievably hot man (implausibility in the minimum alarm caused by potential serial killer vibes) – I like it because it’s steaming hawt. Yey, exhibitionism.

Stranger in Her Bed
Suzanne Forster
Stupid, creepy little plot involving erotic video games and CEOs in weird federal-offense disguises. Ugh, fuckers.

Tangled Sheets
Lori Foster
Book One of Foster’s Winston Brothers series, featuring Cole of the whipped cream fixation, and repressed little Sophie with the creamy breasts.
Damn it, I wanted it mucho hotter. I kept thinking that if this was a longer book, the author could have made them go on with the charade (“I have a way hotter twin sister”) until they both go crazy with lust and heartache for each other. But meh. Oh well.
