Rethinking Lisa Kleypas

After reading "Mine Till Midnight", I was surprised I allowed myself to pick up another Lisa Kleypas book to read.  After all, she did write "Where Dreams Begin", which since reading it has always had a special place in my heart.  Again and again....and again...you get the picture.  Nevertheless, I was so disappointed in this first book of the Hathaways, I was close to closing the chapter on her.  THANK GOD I DIDN'T.  I would have missed out on "Deaming of You" and "Tempt Me At Twilight"!  I wasn't a big fan of the Hathaway's after suffering the lack luster pages and deflating culminations of Amelia Hathaway and Kev's story.  I have yet to read about Merripen and Win in "Seduce Me At Sunrise", after Twillight I will definitely go and get.  Twillight had everything Midnight didn't.  It was sexy and funny and really gave me an intimate look inside the Hathaway family that wasn't there in the first book.  And I have to say it, the lovemaking scenes lived up to all the tension building up to them.  They really made the romance between the characters all that more palpable.  I look forward to the 4th and possibly 5th books.

Recently, I just finished "Dreaming of You" and was again unable to put it down.  I love it when a book draws you in and you can't sleep for wondering what will happen next!  So juicy!  I plan to keep reading Ms. Kleypas's works and recommend them to anyone who can't get enough of those love depraved males and the women who can't help but to love them for who they can be.
