When I found out Lisa would be published in the mainstream book world, I was over the moon. Dangerous Lover was one of my favorite books of 2007 and her hero, Jack Prescott is one of my all time favorite heroes in romance ever. That says a lot coming from me, because from the amount of romances I read a year, the majority of the heroes are a dime a dozen. But not Lisa’s men. Her newest hero, Nicholas Ireland, in her July release of Dangerous Secrets is very much a trademark Rice hero. He is very much an alpha male but so protective and sweet of the woman he cares for. He wants to swallow his new found love whole, but feels the need to treat her with kindness and care instead. Because I am so biased about Jack, Nick doesn’t even come close in my hero worship, but the way he treats his woman, librarian Charity Prewitt, is so very endearing.

Dangerous Secrets Review!
When I finally ventured into the online world of ebooks, I found Ellora’s Cave. There were three authors there I quickly had become a big fan of. They were Samantha Kane, Sarah McCarty and Lisa Marie Rice. I find Lisa Marie Rice to be a very different author of erotic romance. Most erotic romance has the hero and heroine trying out every sexual position possible to the point where they are swinging from chandeliers and spanking each other upside their bums. (and even in some cases multiple partners and toys are a big option) Lisa writes romances that don’t need such shocking and scandalous sex to get her point across. She is the one author who writes some of the hottest missionary sex around. Her stories are so beyond sexy because of the bond the hero and heroine form between them. Her heroes are men who are so lost, adrift in the world until they meet that one woman that gives them their soul back.

I really must get Dangerous Lover soon. Great review and I can't wait for the interview!
OMG you suck another one I MUST read but yet OMG you suck... Alright, alright I shall read it.
Nice review, Katie. I really enjoyed Dangerous Lover too.
Sounds very good. I need to not hop on this blog so much - too many in TBB as it is! Ok - I'll keep coming back for more...you're my book pimps!
OMG interview! OMG, I want to read this book. Why must you keep me so hooked on these things?!?!! I've finally cleaned up from ebooks, oh why must it be so tempting?!!
I blame your too-awesome-for-words reviews. They're too good and getting me back addicted. @_@
NOOOOOO now I have another book to add to the TBB list *sigh*
And E-books are just evil because you can buy them online and get instant gratification :o)
She is hit and miss for me, often because her heroines are TSTL, or just too damn innocent and then just jump into bed with these huge alpha heroes. BUT, this one does sound good. And I do love me some groveling sensitive alpha male :)
And that cover is gorgeous, too!
Lori: Nick is definitely a groveling and sensitive alpha hero.
I am such a sucker for those men!
I love a good Grovel.
This one sounds absolutely delicious!! I love Lisa Marie Rice and I'm looking forward to reading this one. I think I have it ordered - I think - if not I soon will!
Thanks for the great review and heads up on this one. I love Rice's heroes and the relationships she builds. The emotion and depth of feeling are usually quite amazing and engrossing.
Dangerous Lover was all that, but the plot disappointed me. I'd hoped with her entrance into mainstream erotic romance, we would see an increase on the plot side, a meatier backdrop for the romance I suppose. I still love her books though.
LOL to the missionary sex. That's one thing too, how she doesn't have to use all the sex devices out there and still manages to write some of the most smoking hot love scenes.
