A new paranormal series (no arcane) but it was a nice change to get away from the arcane society and nightshade. This was her new book and I read it quickly, always enjoying the storyline of a JAK paranormal romance.

The Witness
by Nora Roberts.
Wow - this is a good book! I love these suspense romances and this one didn't disappoint. I liked it all the way, a good build up in the beginning, a good story, good characters and a good mystery/suspense (not really a mystery too much). It was definitely hard to put down and I highly recommend this for a good stand alone read!

What Happens in London
by Julia Quinn.
I believe this is the 2rd in the Bevelstoke series, I only know of one other actual Bevelstoke book though, the 'third' is Sebastian's book - I guess since he's a cousin it counts. Anyhow it's the last for me to read but it was a fun read. It took me FOREVER to read this since I was listening to it and on maternity leave (which means I wasn't listening to it). So I can't really say much about it, it was easy to pick up after a long period of time :)

Sleeping Beauty
by Elle Lothlorien.
Hoping for a second winner this one was okay but kind of twisted in the middle. It's based on a woman Claire who has sleeping beauty syndrome which involves spells of fainting/blacking out leading up to a longer coma like state where she's semi-conscious but has complete amnesia. Cue male doctor who meets her on the street during one of her episodes and I won't give more away.
I was kind of perturbed, there are some twists and turns that were hard to relate to in this book. There are a lot of helpful characters around and while being unbelievable the overall book was good. Just had to get through the middle part. Recommended because the story was good, no where near as funny as Frog Prince but a good read if not disturbing for a bit.

The Frog Prince
by Elle Lothlorien
A new author to try out, this first book was very good if not unbelievable. It was also interesting to see what fame can do to a relationship. It was fun all the way. Following the story of an un-crowned prince of Austria (they have no monarchy) living in America who falls for a hilariously quirky american. Then all of a sudden the monarchy is re-instated and he becomes king - instant fame around the world to deal with and she's just a 'commoner' so the speculation about their relationship runs rampant. Very fun story, I was happy I found this author!
