In which our main character is self obsessed and relatively unlikable, but seems to be lovable none-the-less. I had thought she would go on a journey of self discovery and redemption, and was quite intrigued at the bravery of it, but no, that is all left to the future. Another American book in which a … Continue reading Visiting Hours by Tagan Shepard

Assistant Chief Medical Examiner meets Injured Ex-surgeon looking to put her life back together. Assistant Chief ME has heartbreak in her past and has vowed not to love again.

Switchback by S.W. Andersen
Almost impenetrably written, it's hard for me to know what this book is about. In essence, hotshot mountain biker is wild, free and lives on the edge. Hotshot chiropractor is uptight and hides in her work. Mountain biker could benefit from a bit more structure, chiropractor could benefit from a bit more down time. Their … Continue reading Switchback by S.W. Andersen
At All Costs by Micheala Lynn
A very interesting concept, let down by the quality of the writing. We have an ER doctor who meets a wheelchair-bound woman who works in a bookshop. Their initial encounter does not go well, but then they get to know each other and lurve flourishes. In the mix, our doctor has attachment issues, and our … Continue reading At All Costs by Micheala Lynn
Snowbound by Cari Hunter
This is Cari Hunter's first book, and it somewhat shows. She can write, and it's gripping, but it's just not as strong as the Dark Peaks series. It's also very obviously a warm up for that series, with very similar characters kicking around. It's also a slightly odd mix of genres, combining thriller with lesbian … Continue reading Snowbound by Cari Hunter
Safe Harbor by Radclyffe
Published in 2004, this is the first in a looooong series about an implausible sheriff. Our very own Long Tall Sheriff read this, and then selected other books in the series a while ago, but I've only just got round to them. (And I think we can see where our very own Sheriff got her … Continue reading Safe Harbor by Radclyffe
Sanne Jensen books by Cari Hunter
Currently on the third book of this detective-who-goes-fell-running-and-eats-chips series. Gruesome and compelling, mostly snowing and refreshingly English. They don't drink 'tea', they 'make a brew' in this book. Sometimes they have 'a chippy' for supper. When it gets bad, they have a kebab. Use caution when reading the first 20% of any of the Dark … Continue reading Sanne Jensen books by Cari Hunter
