Breve biografia: Harper Allen is an Canadian, who grew up in a blue-collar motor city, and with comments such as "Does not play well with others" on her grade-school report cards. Underneath the motorcycle leathers and the rose tattoo, beats the heart of a true romantic. The day she met the man who eventually became her husband, she told her sister, "I've just met the man I'm going to marry. How long do you think it'll take him to figure it out?" They married, and had little kids, who aren't the first ones picked for the volleyball team. Her idea of a great date with her husband is going to a baseball game. Her idea of a great baseball game is any one in which the Red Sox win.

Her Irish ancestry lends them a touch of Celtic mysticism, while her work as a reporter in the criminal court system gives her books a darker edge, first and foremost each one is a story about a man and a woman falling in love and holding on to that love. Her characters have always been real people with real flaws, desperately struggling to find the love that will redeem them - and for that Harper need look no further for inspiration than her own life. As writer of romance novels, she is a four-time nominee for a Career Achievement Award by Romantic Times Book Reviews magazine and her novel Dressed To Slay was named the magazine's choice for Best Silhouette Bombshell of 2006.

Desperado Lawman (Men of the Double B Ranch) di Harper Allen

3.5 stars
The story line is enhanced with hints of the supernatural. If anything, the plot is a tad too complex. I lost track of who some of the people mentioned were. It feels like a part of a series, but I don't know if it is. Good, escapist read.

Covert Cowboy di Harper Allen

Enjoyed Cons character as he goes after the girl that was always meant to be his!

Liked How Marilyn's character changed and became who she was meant to be when she received the love that she had always needed.

Strange how the family interweaved. Tho I'm still wondering what's been going on with Colleen and Dax. And since I missed a book, I didn't understand how Fiona ended up with the governor who is now family to Marilyn and Con!

Good read! Looking forward to the next one, which should solve many of these problems!… (altro)

Dressed to Slay (Silhouette Bombshell) di Harper Allen

This shows promise, the story does creak in places and can be a bit obvious. The triplets have a destiny, one will become a vampire, one a healer and the third a slayer. Their normal lives change when their three finance's turn up, on the day before Megan's wedding, undead. The three girls have to vanquish them and then have to face up to what they've done. While Megan is the focus of this story she is quite a solid character but you don't see her develop over the course of the book, while it's told from her point of view she doesn't really seem to change or her perspective really change over the course of the story.

A good start but could do better.… (altro)

Dead Is the New Black (Mills & Boon Super Nocturne) di Harper Allen

A trilogy that focuses on a set of triplets. One is a vampire hunter, another a healer and the last is a vampire. Will she succumb to her dark side and join the evil vampires or will her love for one of them bring both of them to the light.

It's pretty predictable, nothing major, I found it quite readable but not overly exciting or thrilling. The fact I can't find the prequels doesn't really disturb me.
