Only a sucker would manage a polite smile while her ex-boyfriend proposed to her worst enemy. Well, Amy's finally had enough of being a good girl. She's ready to taste how the other half lives, and what better way to try it than volunteering for hunky Dr. Marc Javier's latest sensuality project? But what the sexy scholar has in mind isn't a simple Q&A; it's a very hands-on experiment...a living, breathing, touching, kissing sensuality makeover designed to unleash Amy's inner vixen on every blissful level...

"Looking for something scintillating and steamy? You've come to the right place. "Wicked" Women 101 is a trio of novellas that prove even good girls can be bad. Though these are three short stories, each story feels complete. Often with novellas, I feel cheated. Storylines feel rushed to their conclusion, characters seem weak, or the ending comes too soon. This is certainly not the case in "Wicked" Women 101. Susanna Carr has proven her skill in developing an entire novel into a shorter length. I found myself eagerly delving into each story and hesitating to put it down for any reason. It was one of those books that I just didn't want to walk away from until I'd finished the final page." – Tracy Farnsworth, Round Table Reviews (posted January 17, 2005) Read the entire review.

"This anthology is what I consider light and fluffy. It's something I was able to sit down with, read with a smile on my face, laugh a bit, and, overall, relax with. It was a sweet and spicy romance, something I only occasionally find a good melding of. Susanna Carr is fast becoming an auto-buy author for me, and I'd suggest this book for anyone." – Tara Black, The Romance Studio (posted January 17, 2005) Read the entire review.

Slightly Wicked
By Mary Balogh

Rannulf, one of the Bedwyn brothers, and dutiful Judith Law cross paths when he stops to help her disabled coach.  They have a lost weekend of hot sex, laughter and phony names, and Judith packs what she thinks is a lifetime of memories into them before continuing her trip to be the poor relation helping an uncaring relative.  Imagine her surprise when Rannulf shows up for a house party.  Mary Balogh tells a great story, and I am looking forward to the final Bedwyn book next month when she tells the elusive Wulfric's story. –– Jennifer

 

Wicked
By Jill Barnett

Set in Medieval England, Lady Sofia and Sir Tobin have a long history of flirtation and arrogance before the King arranges their marriage.  To call them both stubborn is an understatement!  Here is a story where love conquers all, nuns that fight like knights, a dancing bear, and friends like Merrick & Clio (from her earlier book Wonderful) who roll their eyes at the stubborn pair and watch the fireworks.–– Jennifer

 

On a Wicked Dawn
By Stephanie Laurens

Amelia Cynster, cousin of the famed Bar Cynster, has decided that Lucien Ashford is the man she will marry.  She and her twin sister Amanda (whose story is one of my favorite in On a Wild Night) set out to find their own husbands that are both strong, sexual and sensitive.  Typical of Stephanie Laurens, there is a mystery to be solved – here things keep disappearing, and Lucien has the strong and sexual parts down, but is slow to acknowledge his love for Amelia.  Definitely a good read. –– Jennifer
