HOT NEW RELEASE

SOMETHING ABOUT MAGGIE
By Rose Middleton

When the love you’ve been searching for has been there all along…

Determined and driven, scientist Maggie Walker is used to getting what she wants—except when it comes to love. Ever since her best friend, Jack, gave her that first embarrassingly disastrous kiss at age fifteen she’s yearned for a second chance to show him that they could be so much more.

Now Jack is a jet-setting freelance photographer with an enviable lifestyle. For years he’s been travelling around the world to exotic locations, but when he comes home to Melbourne Maggie’s always been able to count on him to be the same dependable, predictable Jack…but not this time.

From the moment Jack’s plane lands he begins to see Maggie, the one person in his life he’s always been sure of, in a different light. Could it just be that for the first time in a long time both Jack and Maggie are single? Possibly, although it seems to be more than that. Something unexpected has happened, something that’s awakened long ignored desires and hidden passions, something that can’t be ignored. This time there’s no denying it, there’s Something About Maggie…

Available April 1, 2008 from Linden Bay Romance

On a hot summer night, Cassie manages to find inspiration from the least likely places. Not only Megan and Trevor, but their neighbors Gail and Dean demonstrate that everything isn’t as it seems, that love takes many guises. Even Craig is full of surprises on their night out, showing Cassie how hot a summer night can be. You’ll race through this, but the images linger; always the sign of a good read!

The characters are very real, their lives drawn in clear detail so that you feel for them and their struggles. Unlike a lot of shorter erotic stories this one really worked for me, and the sex scenes were very hot and intense. Brava to Jenna Allen for a story well told.

I loved this funny tale. Cassie tries everything she can think of in order to spice up their sex life and save her marriage. The characters are wonderfully portrayed and the lives believable between these pages. This is a great read from Ms. Allen. I look forward to more from her in the future.

Joyfully Reviewed
A great read! I liked how Cassie realized that the lack of a sex life meant that her marriage needed help, and searched for a solution. Ms. Allen is an author I'll be sure to read again.

Erotic Romance Reviews for Women
Jenna Allen does a great job portraying three young wives and
their struggles and accomplishments in keeping there marriages interesting and their husbands excited. The plot is a good one and progresses with each encounter the wives have with their husbands. The sex scenes were vivid and stimulating. They added to the heat of one sweltering night in a neighborhood much like any neighborhood, and make you wonder what your neighbors are doing when their lights go out.

I enjoy this story, especially in how the author compares the
hot-and-beautiful couple of Megan and Trevor having sex to the out-of-shape couple of Dean and Gail getting it on only to prove that hot sex isn't exclusive to Kens and Barbies of the world. The sex is frank, coarse, explicit, and erotic, with an underlying strong romantic undercurrent in the explicit scenes especially between Megan and Trevor. A truly an inspiring read as it gives me an insight as to how an author can actually combine elements of erotica and romance and come out with a fun and sexy read. I really want more. My toes aren't curled enough. Why can't this
story be longer? Dang.

This is a good and hot read! I wish it was a bit longer, as I was so curious to find out more about the couple. Jenna Allen pleased me with how well her characters came to life on these pages.
