White Hot / Wildfire by Ilona Andrews (May 30 / July 25) If you're looking for a contemporary romance that will touch your heart and tickle your funny bone, I highly recommend My Kind of You. It's a funny, heartwarming tale with a wonderful cast of characters, intriguing family dynamics, and Brogan's signature humor. I had so much fun reading Brogan's first book in her new Trillium Bay series that I was still awake reading at 2:30 am and laughing so loud I thought I was going to wake the people in the condo next door. STOLEN is part of a continuing series but can easily be read as a standalone. I eagerly look forward to every book she writes. I love that! Her skills as a medical doctor, a psychologist, and a gifted writer are put to good use in the creation of complex, compelling characters - especially villains - and the perilous circumstances in which she places them. Just when I think I have everything figured out, she throws in another twist that leaves me gasping. STOLEN:A Cassidy & Spenser Thriller by Carey Baldwin (Feb 14)īaldwin is an expert at crafting intricately-woven psychological thrillers filled with twists and turns that always keep me reading late into the night and guessing until the very end. Readers of the series will delight in catching up with characters from the first two books while those new to the series will have no difficulty reading Between the Devil and the Duke as a standalone. Secondary characters, both good and bad, shine vibrantly in their respective roles, moving the story along without taking the focus off the hero and heroine. Gifting them with sparkling dialogue, sizzling passion, family secrets, heartwarming emotion, and a mystery with twists and turns aplenty showcases this brilliant match, landing Alex and Angelique on my list of all-time favorite couples. Alex and Angelique, hero and heroine of Between the Devil and the Duke are perfect examples of that skill. One of the things I most enjoy about 2017 RITA award winner Bowen's books is her skill in creating complex, intelligent, fascinating characters who are outside the norm. There were just so many good books!īetween the Devil and the Duke by Kelly Bowen (Jan 31) I'm adding a few bonus books to my list because there were titles that, while they didn't make the top ten cut, still needed to be mentioned. This year we were blessed with some outstanding new books which made 2017 a great year for reading but sure didn't help Janga and me whittle our "best of" lists down to ten titles.
