ReplyDeletehave a lovely day.
The Matrimonial Advertisement is a bit predictable...but that isn't always a bad thing in a romance. Thanks for commenting, Lissa! :)
DeleteI love these haiku reviews, they're so well done. Left for Dead sounds really interesting.

ReplyDeleteThat series is one of my favorites! Thanks for commenting. :)
DeleteHi Lark, I discovered Linda Castillo from a movie starring Neve Campbell as Kate Burkholder. Went on to read the book and agree this is a great series.
ReplyDeleteThat's how I discovered Linda Castillo! It was a good movie of her first book, wasn't it? I kind of wish they'd made more. :)
DeleteI'm with you, sometimes those romance novels are just what you need. I really like the sound of this one so will have to check it out. And, I've really enjoyed a couple of the Kate Burkholder books so I can't wait to read more fo that series
ReplyDeleteBoth books are very enjoyable. :)
DeleteI bought LEFT FOR DEAD a while back after reading INTO THIN AIR. I've yet to read it, but I'm going to eventually. The whole story of their Everest adventure is so fascinating!
ReplyDeleteBoth stories are compelling, that's for sure.
