Another couple of new books on the shelf

Sherrilyn Kenyon - Acheron
Julie James - Practice Makes Perfect

I considered getting Karen Hawkins' To Scotland With Love but figured I'll get it on my next trip.  Right now, I'm craving something that takes place in the present-day, not historical.  Additionally, I aimed for something that had a strong female lead that can take care of herself and doesn't necessarily need a man in her life.  However, of course, someone special comes along, because otherwise, the story wouldn't exist.

And that's where I found Practice Makes Perfect.  The story involves two people in a law firm competing to make partner at the firm where they work - hence, very stiff competition.

As for Acheron, I figured I need to read a genuine Sherrilyn Kenyon novel that isn't just Brotherhood of the Sword series.  I want to read what's popular in the other Menyons' eyes so that'll be somewhere...by next year possibly, if I ever get to it.

Heck, I'm still trying to start reading Passion and Pleasure in London (Melody Thomas) but school keeps getting in the way.
