seriously romantic: tempting her neighbor by laura jardine

in this short and sexy novel, grumpy-old-man-before-his-time, cole sampson moves in next to just-wants-to-have-fun-with-no-strings, rachel malone. cole isn't good with people, so he's taken aback by rachel's matter-of-fact come-ons. she is very clear she wants to have sex with him. he's just not sure why. he doesn't like other people generally. it's why he's moved to this town in the middle of nowhere canada. and given that there are only about 30 other people in this town it seems wrong to sleep with his neighbor who he will be unable to avoid should things end badly.

but rachel is persistent. she's slept with most of the available guys in greenville. she wants someone new who won't judge her based on town gossip. she knows cole is attracted to her, she just needs him to take a leap. and when they have a hot encounter in the woods she's a little hurt to realize that maybe there's no getting around her reputation as town slut after all.

but cole isn't good with words and people and rachel is so hot and sexy and she wants him for some reason. and how is he going to keep saying no when all he wants to do is say yes. and when rachel realizes that cole will never judge her or find her wanting for expressing what she truly desires, it's as if he sets her free. things get pretty racy.

both cole and rachel have to deal with some emotional baggage that fuels their commitment issues. but for once it's the guy who realizes first that what they share is worth making compromises for and that it is possible for them to find a way to make things work. this all moves at a fast clip, but nothing is given short shrift. and if you are looking for a short and sexy read, tempting her neighbor should definitely make your tbr list.

**tempting her neighbor will publish on may 1, 2017. i received an advanced reader copy courtesy of netgalley/entangled publishing (scorched) in exchange for my honest review.

simply catching up on all things general hospital

hmmm, it's been months since i've blogged about gh . partly this is due to the fact that i fell behind while i was traveling. partly because all the outrage lapsed into disinterest when i realized i couldn't bring myself to care anymore and everything that was happening was just so trite and boring. some days i still feel that way. and there are still whole storylines that i either hate or just fast forward through. but there are some good things too. in no particular order, here are my thoughts on the goings-on in port charles: 1. soras [and why re-casting roles works on soaps even if you do miss the original actors]: the new, older versions of sonny's kids are turning out to be quite enjoyable. [although hilariously, cameron whom i believe is older than molly is now younger. and because cameron is so cute, i'm kind of hoping they won't fix that. we also haven't seen spencer in ages, so he may be approaching 50.] in any case, at this point we've only s

genre debate: urban fantasy versus epic fantasy: team epic gets their say

Team Epic: Why I Love Epic Fantasy! Since it's my blog, I'll go first: Epic fantasies take you on quests that take you beyond the limits of what is real. The rules can be different, they are different, and everything just matters more. It's not just one life at stake, it's lives, it's a whole world, a whole way of being.

We can erase all of our preconceived notions of society and law and even science, throwing all of that over the side of a cliff. Epic fantasy lets us push humanity well past the breaking point with ever
