Judgment Road
By Christine Feehan
First in her new Torpedo Ink Series, I was intrigued. I wasn't disappointed. Supernatural people on motorcycles was a long awaited plot line that made for fun reading. Can't wait for the next one to come out.

Brokenomics: 50 Ways To Live the Dream on a Dime 
By Dina Gachman 
It didn’t give me 50 ways to live the dream on a dime at all, but it was a fun read. Don’t get it looking for serious advice, though.

The Castaways
By Elin Hilderbrand
The Castaways is an enjoyable beach read. Not my favorite so far of Elin Hilderbrand’s but enjoyable enough. The characters are interesting and I always love to read about Nantucket!

The Kiss Quotient
By Helen Hoang
Helen Hoang's The Kiss Quotient is the perfect light summer read for fans of contemporary romance novels. Stella Lane has Asperger's and prefers the intricacies of creating algorithms that predict customer purchases to the awkwardness of dating. Ever the practical thinker, Stella decides to hire an escort as a means to practice dating and simultaneously satisfy her mother's pleas for grandchildren. Stella is unlike any of the clients Michael Phan has ever worked with and, despite his rule about single meetings with clients, something pulls him towards her. Hoang creates well-developed, complex characters in an appealingly, well-written story (with a healthy dose of steamy scenes) that will delight readers interested in reading diverse romances.

Vessel
By Lisa A. Nichols
Catherine Wells is the sole survivor of an accident in deep space. Nine years later she managed to return to Earth but she can't remember any of what happened to her or her crew mates. Now she is helping to send a new mission back to where the planet where it all happened. At the same time, Catherine is beginning to have black outs where she wakes up in strange places with no recollection of how she got there. I found this to be fast paced and enjoyable; a good summer light read for Sci-Fi fans.
