A Wish in Time, by Laurel Bradley - A short novella of time-travel romance. Lovely.

The Poet of Loch Ness, by Brian J. Corrigan - Two men who care deeply for the same woman. Poignant.

Mariette in Ecstasy, by Ron Hansen - An unusual work of fiction about the sensual nature of spirituality and religion.

Birth of the Chess Queen, A History, by Marilyn Yalom - Interesting if you enjoy reading about the history of women and power.

Warprize, Warsworn and Warlord (The Chronicles of the Warlands), by Elizabeth Vaughn - A romantic fantasy at it’s best. I didn’t want this series to end.

The Charm Stone, by Donna Kauffman - A fun, silly, light-hearted contemporary romance. The perfect pool-side read.
