I humby apologise for the delay in updates :) Just shifted to a new place and was getting settled and trying to find where the library is and all that stuff. Finally got one and was too lazy to search for novels so just picked up the tried and tested author - Nora Roberts heehhhe :)

Falling For Rachel & Convincing Alex - Nora Roberts

on Monday, February 9, 2009

Man how I so love her books! This deals with Ukrainian family and it is, in essence, two novels but combined in one book :) So it's like ek lo ek muft ( Buy one, get one free)

It's about the lawyer who is assigned to the hero's brother and who has to make sure that he is reforming and trying to become better. One interesting aspect is when the hero and hero's brother both fall for her :) hehhehe interesting, ain't it?

The other one deals with a detective and a lady writer who tries to find out more material for soap operas by going to the street and acting the part :)

But both books were awesome :)

Homeport - Nora Roberts

Man this novel was too good. I was waiting till the end. It's sort of a thriller and romance entwined into one :)

It's about someone who is out to set up/frame our heroine in the art world. And the hero is an art thief who helps her out in clearing out her name. I just couldn't wait to finish the novel. Read it in the flight, train and even when I reached home. I couldn't stop :)

Can You Keep a Secret? - Sophie Kinsella

This is such a tempting book. Reading the title itself made me curious. It was such a pink cover for the book. It just said "Pick me up" to me :) hehheheh Guess I'm still a girl at heart! Haven't lost it yet :)

The heroine Emma in this by mistake thinks that she is going to die while flying and accidentally tells all her secrets to a complete stranger in the plane. Unfortunately, for her, the person ends up to be the CEO of her company and the plane doesnt crash :)

This is the story of their romance and so many misunderstandings take place between this couple. Lovely read! I really enjoyed this and wasnt ready to keep the book down until I finished it

In Name Only - Janet Bieber

Funny romance! :) Here the heroine takes up the role of mother for her dead sister's children and literally hates her brother-in-law :) hehehhe How mistaken she is about the hero's character is revealed in the end.

Such novels make me laugh where people get married within the family :) I guess it must be interesting! But all in all, a good romance read.

Time and again - Nora Roberts

This lady is one of my favorite novelists. Simply because of the stories that she weaves and the fantasy along with it. I just loved her Irish series :)

This is somewhat different from her usual. It is about a man who comes from future and lands up in the past and how he falls in love with a lady and doesn't want to go back to future.

How he finds us , meaning to say the present funny is cute! There is another story also about his brother who comes to take him back to future, but the brother too falls in love with the heroine's sister. Lovely novel :) Two in one!

I Wish I Had a Red Dress - Pearl Cleage

Lovely novel. It's basically about social issues with a romance entangled in between.

The book starts out with our heroine Joyce who has started the Sewing Circus for women who need help. She tries to encourage them to be stronger women and not take abuse (sexual or otherwise) from men who are important to them.
Along comes our hero Nate who is the school Principal who falls in love with Joyce and tries to make her understand that you need both women and men involved in such activities if we need to be successful.

I enjoyed reading this novel because of the simplicity and straight forwardness in writing by the author.
