Skinny-Dipping by Claire Matturro
Chick Lit Review

Skinny-Dipping by Claire Matturro

Matturro gives readers a sexy, sassy, determined, and witty heroine, but mixes in just enough legal jargon to make this thriller truly suspenseful. I loved that the villain is not indentified until the very end, as with many mysteries readers can pinpoint them within a few chapters. This aspect ups the intensity and need to keep turning the pages. The plot zips by quickly with a mix of memorable characters, including a depressed Rottweiler and an albino ferret, and they add an ingredient of humor to this enjoyable first novel from Claire Mutturro.

Fourplay by Jane Moore
Chick Lit Review

Fourplay by Jane Moore

Though we know who Jo should end up with, Fourplay from Jane Moore is a page turner, getting readers caught up in Jo’s suddenly wild world as she tries to decide whom she should pick. The writing is funny, edgy, and a bit sinful, making even the oldest cliché’s come alive with a passion.

Killer Heels, the first novel in the Molly Forrester series from Sheryl J.

Can You Keep a Secret? by Sophie Kinsella
Chick Lit Review

Can You Keep a Secret? by Sophie Kinsella

Can You Keep a Secret? from Sophie Kinsella, author of the Shopaholic trilogy, serves up another humorous novel that will make you laugh and want to cry all within a few pages. The stories of deceit, love, and scandal will hold your attention, rooting for the heroine who is incredibly believable and easy to sympathize with when her secrets are spilled to the public. I didn’t think the love story was quite as believable, mainly because Jack’s character was a little too in shadows. That aside, the novel was still entertaining and irresistible to put down.

Slighty Engaged by Wendy Markham

Slightly Engaged from Wendy Markham is engaging and comedic, with a fast paced attitude. Tracey is completely believable, a well developed character struggling not to become obsessed with her wedding, keeping those forty pounds off, and trying to get a handle on her career. The plot is smooth flowing and be sure to pick this up for a relaxing and light hearted read.
