News from DianaWhat People Are Saying About Hungry for More“ ...an enticing, feel-good romance with loveable secondary characters and fascinating details about the dynamics of an upscale gourmet restaurant.” –Booklist "This addictive series of true love and magic steals your heart with fun characters, hot romance, and is destined to fly off the shelves." –Amy Mendenhall, Parkersburg News and Sentinel "Diana Holquist has whipped up an entertaining and delicious tale. Each page is filled with humor and excitement... " –Deborah C Jackson, Romance Reviews Today "Diana Holquist’s HUNGRY FOR MORE is a feast for romance readers. Definitely give Amy and James a chance, you will not regret it." "...the heart of this book is an intense, sexy, funny, wonderful redemption story...and then there is the food porn. ...And, believe me, this is good stuff, indeed." "The story of the third Burns sister...is as interesting and romantic as the previous two. The main characters are appealing, and the secondary ones add depth to the tale with intriguing stories of their own. A bit of psychic phenomena adds a delightful thread to this entertaining read." –Romantic Times Book Reviews, Susan Mobely "James LaChance...can cook both in and out of the kitchen...I mean, come on, didn't you ever wonder where all the great chefs came up with their dishes? ... Hungry for More left me wanting seconds as well as thirds. I can't wait to see what else Diana Holquist comes up with next." "This is an engaging contemporary romance with a whimsical thread of fantasy as the heroine seeks her “voice” and the hero finds his “muse”. Fans will enjoy the third Burns’ sister tale (see MAKE ME A MATCH and THE SEXIEST MAN ALIVE) as Diana Holquist continues her fabulously jocular spin on the twisted paths of true love in which fate causes detours, wrong turns, and tsunamis of the heart.." What people are saying about Sexiest Man Alive:"The Sexiest Man Alive made me smile, laugh out loud and sigh in appreciation." "Rousing fun and an original storyline makes Sexiest Man Alive one entertaining book that is difficult to put down. Jasmine is a personable woman that this reader felt great empathy for. She is afraid to believe she could attract such a "larger than life" gorgeous man and yet wants so badly to believe. Josh is a super sexy hero that grabbed a piece of my heart right away with his determination to show Jasmine he really did care about her. Bravo, Diana Holquist; this book is sure to be a fan favorite." "Diana Holquist has done it again by bringing fans the much anticipated sequel of Make Me a Match. Fans will be drooling over the cover but remember, that is just beginning of something amazing." –Strictlyromancereviews.com "Ms. Holquist with SEXIEST MAN ALIVE delivers another funny and highly entertaining story, that will keep you glued to the pages because you want to know how the situation between Jasmine and Josh. One never knows what will happen next. So if you want to spend an evening with a funny and entertaining book, than SEXIEST MAN ALIVE is the perfect book for you!" "Contemporary readers will rejoice with the return of the Burns sisters (see MAKE ME A MATCH) as the SEXIEST MAN ALIVE is an amusing entertaining romance. Much of the zany fun comes from the downside of knowing who your true love is yet unable to utter two coherent words in his presence. Diana Holquist provides a humorous tale with lovable characters enhanced by the paranormal." What a quirky, humorous, yet thoughtful read SEXIEST MAN ALIVE is... There are some hysterical moments, strange plots, and crazy characters that enable SEXIEST MAN ALIVE to shine. That makes it one of those lighthearted, well written, cutesy contemporaries that make you smile. And who doesn't want to do that? "Sexiest Man Alive is sweet, sexy, funny and very, very, good. Ms. Holquist’s wit kept me turning pages right through the night until the book was done. All of the characters had depth. My eyes misted several times. I laughed a lot. I felt Jasmine’s mortification and her triumph. And best of all I believed Josh’s love. This book is up there with my favorite Vicki Lewis Thompson titles (and way better than her less-than-great books). Grade: A+" |
