While waiting for the fireworks to start, which will inevitably mark the end of the Canadian long weekend (fyi, Victoria Day). I wanted to read something short, sweet but cheap (under $3). I looked over my 'to read' pile and decided on Tessa Dare's latest, The Beauty and The Blacksmith. Diana Highwood can't imagine herself with anybody else except with Spindle Cove's local blacksmith, the strong Mr. Dawes. They couldn't be more of a mismatch but after a forbidden kiss (and then some kisses later) they couldn't care less. Is this simply pure attraction, that may end before it could even really begin? This novella was predictable but overall, it had enough heat for me to not regret the purchase. Tessa Dare even brought her sense of humour, that may or may not involve dirty hands. Since it is a novella, it was a greater teaser for her next book,...

Judith's review of Any Duchess Will Do (Spindle Cove #4) by Tessa Dare. What’s a duke to do, when the girl who’s perfectly wrong becomes the woman he can’t live without? Griffin York, the Duke of Halford, has no desire to wed this season—or any season—but his diabolical mother abducts him to “Spinster Cove” and insists he select a bride from the ladies in residence. Griff decides to teach her a lesson that will end the marriage debate forever. He chooses the serving girl. Overworked and struggling, Pauline Simms doesn’t dream about dukes. All she wants is to hang up her barmaid apron and open a bookshop. That dream becomes a possibility when an arrogant, sinfully attractive duke offers her a small fortune for a week’s employment. Her duties are simple: submit to his mother’s “duchess training”… and fail miserably. But in London, Pauline isn’t a miserable failure. She’s a...

I was stating how upset I was that someone wrote a review and because they did not like the story, they gave away all the twists. I think people like that are mean, not only to the person who is trying to write an adventure for a reader, but for the other readers who now know the twists and can not enjoy the mystery of what will happen next. But, a wonderful person wrote a comment to the reviewer saying how rude and unfair she was by ruining the story for others. Just because she did not like it, maybe others would and she ruined thier experience. I did not know the woman who did this, but I think she is amazing for speaking out. Luckily, she made some changes to her review taking out the spoilers. That is the point. I don't care if you like it or hate...
