Book Blurb:

Posey Osterhagen can’t complain. She owns a successful architectural salvaging company, she’s surrounded by her lovable, if off-center, family and she has a boyfriend—sort of. Still, something’s missing. Something tall, brooding and criminally good-looking…something like Liam Murphy.
When Posey was sixteen, the bad boy of Bellsford, New Hampshire, broke her heart. But now he’s back, sending Posey’s traitorous schoolgirl heart into overdrive once again. She should be giving him a wide berth, but it seems fate has other ideas…

My Thoughts:

I’m a big fan of Kristan Higgins’ books, so when I saw this book on Netgalley I jumped on the occasion. It might not be …

The Heart of the Killer by Jaci Burton

Before the Special Forces hero has even unpacked his bags from twelve years of active duty, he’s embroiled in murder—corpses bearing the brutal trademark he’s seen only once before—on the worst night of his life.
The last time Detective Anna Pallino saw Dante Renaldi, they were in love. Now, he’s part of the connection to a string of fresh homicides and a horrible assault Anna only survived thanks to him.

More than anything, Anna wants to trust Dante. But as the bodies and the coincidences stack up, Anna will have to decide, and fast: Is the man she owes her life to the very same one who wants her dead?

My Lifetime Love of Reading by LSUReader + Giveaway

We are happy to welcome LSUReader here at our Book Lovers United celebration. When we started brainstorming about who to ask for a guest post she was on the list ASAP but we weren’t sure if she would agree. She isn’t a blogger like the rest of our guests. So we were unbelievably proud and happy happy when she agreed to come over. LSUReader will tell us about her life and how tightly reading is woven into it. Please give her an extra warm welcome. Mom must have read to me in utero. I can’t remember a time in my life when I didn’t love reading.
What I can remember is sitting on my father’s lap in his living room recliner, while he taught me to read from Dr. Seuss books. I was four. He’d pronounce each word carefully, then read the sentence completely, with …

It’s a sailor’s life for me!

Yep, I say that from experience. I sailed a lot with my family as a kid. But my new Regency historical romance has nothing to do with sailing. It takes place in the Highlands of Scotland. Charlie’s a visiting Englishman–Daisy’s a Scottish lass. And yes, there’s a loch.
But no one gets on a boat.
Too bad! I don’t know what I was thinking–I will definitely get a boat into one of my next novels in my new series!
