Under Her Skin (Lone Star Sisters #1) Under Her Skin by Susan Mallery


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I like that the love interest isn't the typical caucasian. I love that Cruz is from the wrong side of the tracks but in a good way. Everything he has done has been to protect those he loves even if it doesn't seem that way from the outside.

Reading Must Have Websites In My Opinion

I did not read that much lately and I am not so sure why not. These are some books that I did enjoy recently. If anyone is a member of Good Reads add me on as a friend. I believe I can be found under jlniksich. If you like to read and have not joined Good Reads, I would definitely recommend it. Good Reads is a wonderful way to keep track of what you read and to find recommendations from others.

One other recommendation I would make is for Dear Reader. A lady named Suzanne made this wonderful service. You sign up for what type of books that you like to read. Then you will get emails Monday through Friday with short excerpts from a book. By the end of the week you will have 5 emails that equal to approximately the first two chapters of a book. Just enough of the book is given to you to know if you are interested in getting the book or not. As a bonus Suzanne writes something in each email. Suzanne is a lovely person and a wonderful writer. She leaves you feeling as if you had just sat down with tea and cookies together. I really wish I had her talent for written expression.

Vision in White (The Bride Quartet, #1) Vision in White by Nora Roberts


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Took me a little bit to get into the book. I am glad that I gave it a chance. I will read the next ones in the series as they come out.

Finger Lickin' Fifteen (Stephanie Plum, #15) Finger Lickin' Fifteen by Janet Evanovich


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Hilarious, couldn't stop laughing. The last couple of Stephanie Plum books weren't as funny and I was worried that Janet Evanovich was losing her touch. But this took those worries away. There were times I was laughing so hard that I could not breathe. This is definitely a must read.

Swimsuit Swimsuit by James Patterson


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book is a true James Patterson book ... short chapters, chapters end with you wanting to know more, twists, and leaves you at the end of the book questioning what you know about your own little world and safety. I don't know how he comes up with all of these ideas. Amazing. There is an excerpt of the next book that really sounds interesting.
