Summary: Not awful, but...
Review: ...not one of the better romances (even series romances) that I've read, either. It had some good moments: the sex scenes were nicely done and interesting, there were no ridiculous misunderstandings, and the heroine was fun.The hero, on the other hand, seemed far too tortured by his job, his brother -- everything. His brother, especially, was a plot point that could have been left out of the book entirely -- it felt like it was pasted in there simply to give the hero some depth. But it didn't. Instead, every time he thought about his brother I was jolted out of the story. Also, the heroine's diary entries that we read were kind of...blah; they do lead, however, into one of the more interesting parts of the book -- when Meghan takes on the personality of the 'character' in her diary. Unfortunately, that role-playing also takes place in the most awkward part of the book: the ending, which felt like it went on for far, far too long (the suspense subplot just doesn't seem to work in this book -- the only thing it is really good for is to force Meghan to take on this other personality -- otherwise, it simply seems overly contrived) A decent read, if you can get it at a lower price than suggested retail. Not a keeper by any means.

Summary: sesual with lots of erotic moments
Review: Courtesy of Love Romances RED SHOES AND A DIARY starts with Alex Worth, undercover DEA agent posing as finance geek Nicholas Alexander. Checking into his suite at the Cayo Sueño Resort, he finds it has been occupied by a 'mystery' woman. The woman is nowhere to be seen --- but a pair of red 'seduce me' sandals and 'touch me' panties greets him. Soon, he finds out the name of the mystery woman and has her journal of 'women fantasties'. The diary and the woman immediately divert his thoughts to 'Elise' rather than with his investigation on the Miami cartel. When Alex seeks out Meghan Foster, the owner of the diary, she is not quite the 'Elise' in her journal, but a good girl thats known to be responsible, respectable and reliable. Meghan Elise Foster is on her first vacation in two years and decides to be 'Elise' for one week. She has no idea that her room has been mixed up with Alex's until he seeks her out. Moreover, Alex seems to be the perfect guy for her to act out her seduction plan of a 'no strings, no regrets' fling. What she doesn't know is that Alex reads her secret diary and is intent on making her fantasties come to life. RED SHOES AND A DIARY is a red hot romance with plenty of sensual and erotic moments. Readers will find themselves enthralled in a world of adventures and erotism along with Alex and Meghan. An excellent read that will surely raise your blood pressure and ....... make you want more. Denfinately a shelf keeper or a secret keeper! Rose Chastain

Summary: She's a Good Girl Who Wants to be Bad
Review: Good girl Meghan foster is just plain tired of her plane Jane ordinary life. She's lived out her fantasies in her diary, referring to herself as "Elise", but that's not enough, so she decides to go to a tropical resort, where she can be the woman she's dreamed about. She's always fantasized about a wild affair, now she's going to have one. Alex Worth is a DEA agent working undercover at the resort to expose a drug cartel and he's using the name Nicholas Alexander. After mistakenly discovering a pair of wanton red shoes and a diary filled with erotic fantasies, Alex is intrigued by the unknown woman. When he finally meets Meghan, her innocent exterior doesn't jibe with the sensual entries and exciting clothing, so he decides that he has to get to know her better and since he's read that diary, he knows just what fantasies she wants fulfilled. I enjoyed this book, especially the fact that both Meghan and Alex weren't who they appeared to be to each other. The sparks really flew between them in this sizzler of a story that I couldn't get enough of. A Harlequin Dreamers Review by Lori Mayer

Summary: Moving On
Review: I found this book, what I was able to read, to be poorly written and uninteresting to say the very least. Did not capture my attention and I thought the scenes and characters were very unrealistic... just very boring. Would not suggest this book!

Summary: H-O-T!
Review: Meghan Elise Foster planned to spend one full week on vacation, at the Cayo Sueno Resort, before she began law school. She had taken care of her mother and sister for years. Now that they were okay, they ordered Meghan NOT to behave during her vacation. Having recently been told by her ex-boyfriend that she was frigid, she planned on being very hot, foot-loose and fancy free. Meghan had been writing all her passionate fantasies in a diary with a faceless Mr. Perfect. She had only to pick out a man to make some of those fantasies come true. DEA agent Alex Worth was working undercover as "Nicholas Alexander". He was investigating a money launderer, Frankie Ramos, and had only this last week to get results or the case would be reassigned. Upon entering his suite, he found red shoes on the floor and a diary. Being a snoop, occupational hazard, he could not resist reading a few pages. Then he could not resist locating the author of it. But was she for real or was she a plant by Ramos? ...Be warned in advance that Harlequin put this story in its "Blaze" series for a reason! This story is H - O - T ! Consider yourself well warned! A sassy leading lady who is out to paint the town a deep shade of red! The story focuses on the main couple, but the author inserted danger as well. Keep your husband/boyfriend nearby while you read this novel. RECOMMENDED!

Summary: Reader from MN
Review: Other than lots of sex and more sexy talk, there's not much here worth plunking down your money for. However, if that's why you buy a book, this H-O-T one is the one to buy. But if you read for a good story, try another book.

Summary: I want my money back
Review: This book received rave reviews, which is why I plunked down my 4.50 plus tax. Unfortunately, the characters were unremarkable, the plot was predictable, and I had to force myself to finish it. I did sigh over the ending, but only because I was so glad to be finished with it.
