Lie by Moonlight (Vanza book 3) (again)

by Amanda Quick.

This is my favorite of the Vanza books, I love the female lead and her views on women's rights. This is the book I read first of Vanza and got me into it and standalone this book is great. I didn't catch any references back to the first two that I was hoping to but this one takes place a number of years later I think which is also interesting.

Read this one really quickly, started last night and finished it this morning.

I thee Wed (Vanza book 1) (again)

by Amanda Quick.

Just had to re-read the vanza books in order this time. While the Vanza stuff itself can be annoying (and i remember complaining about that the first time through), I really like the actual characters in the Vanza books.

Finished this up this weekend, I read most of the drive and finished it when we got home.

Wicked Widow

by Amanda Quick.

SAME idea - but still great :) And I love the mysteries - pretty easy to figure out but enough of a mystery to keep my interest. Good bed time reading and I'm giving myself about 45 minutes a night!

And yes and another Vanza book - i think the last. This one was less heavy on the vanza ideas but had vanza throughout. I liked the heroine in this one a lot (having been trained in Vanza by her father essentially). She's a very intelligent woman too - highly enjoyable read!

I Thee Wed

by Amanda Quick.

Ah - like a breath of fresh air. This is another in the Vanza series (I think there were 3). It was quite enjoyable, although the Vanza stuff got kind of annoying. The other Vanza book I read did not going into the vanza details so much.

I have to say there are a good 3 or 4 parts of her books which are pretty much IDENTICAL - but still enjoyable - and now it just makes me laugh. The heroine (always a virgin - even if previously married!) - caught up in a whirlwind romance where the hero has no idea she is a virgin - until it's too late ... hmm.. but once you're past that part the book is excellent :)

Lie by Moonlight

by Amanda Quick.

This one I borrowed in hardback from a friend. As all of the Amanda Quick's I've read it was engaging and a great read. Some good mystery, some good romance and very enjoyable :)
