Less of a Stranger ~Nora Roberts (pt 2 of Dream Makers)

I really enjoyed this one, it is the story of Meg, a sculpture, who helps her grandfather, who raised her, run his carnival instead of following her dreams. until she meets David Ketcherton, an entrepreneur who is determined to own the carnival. This was a pretty good story, a reprint of one of Nora's early books.

Untamed ~ Nora Roberts (pt 1 of Dream Makers)

The Matchmakers is 2 stories in one, so I decided to review them separately. Untamed is the story of Jo, a lion trainer with the circus, and Keane, the new owner of the circus that she has been with since she was born. They have ups and downs and it is quite a ride.

Valley of Silence ~ Nora Roberts

This is the third and final book in the Circle Trilogy. In this book the finial battle between Man and the vampires takes place in Gaell. The circle of six humans that have spent 3 months gathering and training themselves and their army to battle the vampires finally faces the day they have been preparing for. A very interesting story, with, of course, an underlying romance. A new tale ( at least to me) , not a reworking of some old theme that has been reworked to be retold for the millionth time. I really enjoyed this one. It took me a little while to get into it, I think partly cause It had been a bit since I read the first two, and I had read so much in between, I just wasn't in the mood for this to start. Hmm... What to read next?

Sullivan's Woman ~ Nora Roberts

This is one of Nora's early works, and a harlequin romance originally.

This book takes place in San Francisco, and is centered around Cassidy St. John, an aspiring writer, who is stopped one day on the beach and told that the man who stopped her want's to paint her. She doesn't realize untill she shows up for the sitting that he man is Colin Sullivan and a very famous artist. They have ups and downs, and in the end, create a very beautiful painting. I really enjoyed this.

Song of the West ~ Nora Roberts

This is one of Nora's early works, and a harlequin romance originally.

Samantha leaves her home in Philadelphia to go to Wyoming and help her twin sister Sabrina with a difficult pregnancy and falls in love with the place and one man in particular.

I enjoyed it, and it was just the right thing for the mood I was in at the time.

Her Mother's Keeper ~ Nora Roberts

This is one of Nora's early works, from the early 80's, it was a harlequin novel originally. Tells the story of Gwen, who goes home to Louisiana to save her mother from someone who she sees to be a taker, and ends up falling in love along the way. This was entertaining, especially when taken as a quick read and a harlequin romance.

Dance of the Gods ~ Nora Roberts

This is the second book in the Circle Trilogy, it tells the story of a group called together by Morrigan to battle vampires. In this novel they travel through the Dance of the Gods to another land, where two of the circle are from, and continue to prepare for the upcoming battle. Very entertaining, and so engrossing I didn't want to put it down. I forgot to load the third onto my palm, so I will have to read it now that I am home.

Morrigan's Cross ~ Nora Roberts

This is the first book in Nora's new Circle Trilogy, it tells the story of a group called together by Morrigan to battle vampires. Hoyt and Cian are from Ireland in the tenth century, Hoyt being a sorcerer, and Cian having been turned into a vampire in his own time and lived the last thousand years. There is also Glenna, a witch from New York City in the current era, as well as 3 others from various places, who complete the 'circle' that is the base of the army that will battle the vampires. I found this book very entertaining and I look forward to reading the following two.

Remember When ~ J. D. Robb & Nora Roberts

Twentieth in the Eve Dallas series, this one is really different from the others, as it is essentially, two books in one. It starts out as a typical Nora Roberts romance/thriller and tells a modern day story, (2003) Very good.. Then when that story has been told it goes to 2059 (Eve Dallas time ) and tells a story that is a sequel to the first, only taking place 56 years later with even some of the same characters. It was great to follow the story from beginning to end, even after over 50 years of being a 'cold case'. We also got to see a little bit of the dynamics in the works, and how they are changing a little, between Eve and Peabody. And even some between Peabody and McNab. Can't wait to move on to the next one.. Divided in Death.
