Devil in Disguise by Lisa KleypasThe Ravenels #7Historical RomanceJuly 27, 2021, by AvonARCReview by Angela Lisa Kleypas is one of the few authors I've kept on my auto-buy list through the years. I simply adore her voice and find her writing to be some of the sexiest and most romantic in the historical romance genre. Devil in Disguise features Merritt, the oldest daughter of Lillian and Westcliff from It Happened One Autumn, and a brand new character who will take your breath away. Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- Book Reviews for books by Lisa Kleypas and Simone St. James
Chasing Cassandra is the sixth book in the Ravenels series by Lisa Kleypas and I couldn't wait to read Tom and Cassandra's love story. From glancing at the ratings and reviews on Goodreads I think I'm the only reader in Romancelandia who didn't absolutely love this book. LOL. Not that I didn't enjoy my time spent reading, because I did, but it didn't blow me away. Tom and Cassandra meet by chance at her sister Poppy's wedding and it is lust at first sight for Tom. Cassandra on the other hand Continue Reading

Review: Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas
Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas (Ravenels #4) Released: February 27, 2018 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi "I was taught that satisfying a woman propery should take at least as long as making dough for bread." Garrett writhed helplessly. "How long is that?" "You don't know?" he asked, amused. "No, I can't cook." I read the Publishers Weekly's review of this book a few weeks ago, which pretty much slams it as a silly, non-plausible book and laughs it off. It made me have Continue Reading
Review: Marrying Winterborne by Lisa Kleypas
Marrying Winterborne by Lisa Kleypas (The Ravenels #2) Released: May 31, 2016 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi I enjoyed this book more than book one, so yay for that! We meet Rhys and Helen in book (although this can be read as a standalone). They fall in love in book one, they get engaged in book one. What's left for this book, right? Well, at the end of book one (omg I'll stop saying "book one") they have a fight and they break up. This is where book two starts. Rhys was Continue Reading
Review: Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas
Cold-Hearted Rake by Lisa Kleypas (Cold-Hearted Rake #1) Released: October 27, 2015 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi "I disapprove of you," she replied gravely, walking out to the grand staircase with him. "That's not the same as dislike." "Lady Treanor, I disapprove of me." He grinned at her. "So we have something in common." Hallelujah for a new Lisa Kleypas historical! It's been too long. I liked Cold-Hearted Rake. I didn't love it, but I liked it. In this book we Continue Reading
Review: Brown-Eyed Girl by Lisa Kleypas
Brown-Eyed Girl by Lisa Kleypas (Travis Family #4) Releases: August 11, 2015 Contemporary Romance St. Martin's Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: Lowering his head, Joe murmured, "You're not in charge. I am." I went still. For some reason, hearing those soft words while he was pinning me down like that sent a deep, deranged thrill through me. His voice curled hotly in my ear. "You belong to me, and I'm going to have you. Here and now." Oh Joe Travis. We've waited a very, very long Continue Reading
Review: Rainshadow Road by Lisa Kleypas
Rainshadow Road by Lisa Kleypas Contemporary Romance (with magical element) February 28, 2012 St. Martin’s Reviewed by Mandi I’m relatively new to Lisa Kleypas contemporaries. I’m a huge fan of her historicals and decided to try Smooth Talking Stranger this year on audio. I ended up loving it, and still plan to read the other two in that series. But I didn’t want to let this new contemporary pass me by. I was hesitant though for one main reason – magic. I don’t like magic in my Continue Reading
Quick Lisa Kleypas Note
Lisa Kleypas has a new interview up with BordersMedia talking about her latest book Smooth Talking Strangers. This is a contemporary romance of hers. I have yet to read one...I have Blue-Eyed Devil in my tbr pile. I LOVE her historical romances, especially the Wallflowers and her latest series, the Hathaways. Seduce Me At Sunrise, the second in the Hathaway series has just been nominated for a RITA and is one of my favorite books. I really loved Kev and Win - when he came and "kidnapped" her Continue Reading
Let’s Play LisaLand!!
Let me say quickly that I read Devil in Spring this week and it's by far my favorite romance of the year.
