Maybe I am helping kill the category?

I so want to spend $30 and get $5.00 off. But I can't, but if I could I would: The Sheik and I by Linda Winstead Jones I do think I already own one book with Sheik in the title, hee I think it is Susan Mallery (see next). Hmmm although I think in Robin's The Lady's Tutor the hero was a bastard sheik, does that count? He's a sexy sheik willing to risk his own life by visiting Silverton and negotiating peace with our country... though some suspect he had a hand in the prince's murder. She's a beautiful diplomatic aide unwilling to let anything - or anyone - stand in the way of her perfect career. Yet bullets weren't the only thing flying when Sheik Kadir Al-Nuri met his appointed aide, Cassandra Klein; there were sparks aplenty for our cameras to catch as the pretty pair dove to safety. But even if the smart and sultry Cassandra were willing to hang up her severe business suits and take a chance at love, could these star-crossed lovers ever make it work in the real world? Having Her Boss's Baby by Susan Mallery I want this. Yeah I said it! Part of me feels like I should be ashamed of wanting anything titled Having Her Boss's Baby. But then I remember I read Diana Palmer and I have no shame. I say it with pride. So take that karens ;). When Noelle Stevenson saw the positive results of her pregnancy test, she didn't know what to do. The baby's father was gone, killed serving his country in Iraq. And nineteen-year-old Noelle was barely making ends meet putting herself through college and working part-time. So when her take-charge boss, Devlin Hunter, offered to marry her -— in a purely temporary business arrangement - how could she possibly refuse? Dev wanted to do the right thing for a woman in need. But he didn't anticipate that his beautiful bride, wed in a marriage of convenience, would stir his hardened heart. This platonic partnership was rapidly headed down the road to romance.... The Player by Rhonda Nelson Don'to be a player hater! LOL Anyone read anything by Rhonda Nelson? I have nada tbr. But like the sound of her new series Men Out of Uniform. There's nothing like a man in uniform...or out of it! Especially when he's as hot as former Ranger Jamie Flanagan. After their last assignment went horribly wrong, he and his buddies needed to get out of the military for good. There was only one catch - that he and his pals promise their commanding officer one favor. Any favor. Now tall, dark and sexy Jamie is a top security specialist...and the ultimate ladies' man. So he's more than a little surprised when he learns the colonel has set him up to protect his granddaughter. Who would trust a player like Jamie with a gorgeous woman like Audrey? Then he learns his "mission" is to seduce her away from another man.... Mr. and Mistress by Heidi Betts I am bummed to miss this. But I am sure I will be able to catch it used at some point next month or so. I have read all her Desire books and she is one of the few I have found I almost always like. ::coughdoanotherwesterncough:: She was his kept woman...a secret lover living in Las Vegas luxury. It had been an ideal situation. Until Misty Vale discovered she was carrying Cullen Elliott's child. Misty was not the type a millionaire like Cullen could ever take as his wife. Her past was scandalous... his family above reproach. How could she ever tell him the truth? But Cullen had ways of finding things out. And he wasn't about to allow his heir to be born on the wrong side of the bed! Loner's Lady by Lynna Banning When a stranger turned up at her farm, in need of a place to rest, Ellen O'Brian didn't have the heart to turn him away. He looked darkly dangerous, but she could handle herself; she had learned hard and fast when her husband upped and left. Jess Flint couldn't help but admire Ellen's courage and grit -— even though he had to keep secrets from her. He showed her what it was like to feel like a woman again, to have a man to hold and rely on. With danger just around the corner, could their bond help them survive - or would his past tear them apart? Way fucking awesome cover me think... but I always go eek when I see husband or wife in the blurb and it isn't referring to the h/h. I have to admit, I peeked. Not sure if I will get this. I did lookie and the few pages I read seem to point in the buy me direction. But Banning has always been hit and miss with me. Well and that whole, no no no buying books thing. Reviews must be done! The Ranger by Carol Finch Lucky for me this was already sold out when I was walmart today. Otherwise I would have screwed my budget and no book buying in may and june by getting it. I have all her books. It is my OCD in action because I think I have read one maybe two. Go figure. Caught in the crossfire...between a mysterious Apache, who claims he's a Texas Ranger, and some very angry desperados, she doesn't know who to trust. The last thing Shiloh Drummond wants is a man in her life, although right now this ranger is all she has! Logan Hawk can't wait to get rid of this feisty female and return to the task of avenging his mentor's death -— although he must do the honorable thing and protect her at all costs. But during a long trip to safety that's more rocky than romantic, Logan realizes that he may not really want to let Shiloh go... Too Hot To Handle and Sweet, Wild, Wild Wind by Elizabeth Lowell I won't be buying this since I have the books already and it is a trade size. I hate trade size books. They don't fit in my purse damn it! But love these two stories and it is teh purdy. Very nifty her book was picked as wally worlds book of the month. Not this one but ALWAYS TIME TO DIE, wonder how much that lil sticker will sell. I really would like to read The Wrong Hostage. I noticed she has a new blurb on her site... Hard Edge Suspense with a Passionate Twist. I wonder if that is just that, a blurb or saying she is adding more romance into her suspense. Too Hot to Handle In hopes of getting work, Tory Wells shows up on Ethan Reever's doorstep with nothing but a letter of introduction and two dollars in her pocket. Running from a career-ending injury as a competitive diver, Tory just wants to escape from everything - and where better than an Arizona ranch in the middle of nowhere? What she's counting on is a fresh start. But falling for her bad-boy boss was not in the job description... Sweet Wind, Wild Wind When Lara Chandler returns to the Rocking B Ranch to complete her dissertation on a century of life at a Montana cattle ranch, she doesn't bargain on working so closely with Carson Blackridge, the guy who dumped her years earlier. Now Carson is determined to win her back for all the right reasons...and one wrong one. Will history repeat itself or will their love be for keeps this time around?
