Yield Under Great Persuasion by Alexandra Rowland
"I was lucky enough to get an ARC of this and I just want to say - it’s wonderful. Sexy and emotional, funny and meaningful, giggling one minute and crying the next. Everyone - especially the two heroes - feels like someone I could know and understand and like, and I became intensely caught up in their story. Read it at one sitting because I just could not walk away from it "

Running Close to the Wind by Alexandra Rowland
"Fair disclosure - Alex is a friend, which is how I got this ARC.

That said, if you check my reviews you’ll see that I’m not generous with four and five star ratings and I don’t give them if I don’t mean them. I tore though this book in two evenings, giggling, snorting, and expostulating at the cat, and the only reason I’m not rereading immediately is that I’m really looking forward to the audiobook and don’t want to have chunks of it memorized by the time it comes out.

(More informative review hopefully to come…)

…well, ok, I am not managing more informative, but definitely a thumbs up for the audiobook as well, and, unusually for comedy, this is absolutely a book that rewards rereading. There’s a lot of dramatic irony to appreciate, and plenty of humor that hits on a second (or third read.)"
