Review: Love in Straight Sets by Rebecca Crowley
Love in Straight Sets by Rebecca Crowley Contemporary Romance Released: April 14, 2014 Carina Press Reviewed by Mandi This book features a very insecure heroine who is unlikable in my opinion.

She is a star, and known for pushing coaches away. Her manager knows she is close to winning a big tournament, but she needs Continue Reading
Review: Unfixable by Tessa Bailey
Unfixable by Tessa Bailey Released: April 14, 2014 New Adult Entangled Reviewed by Mandi I believe this is Tessa Bailey's first foray into the New Adult genre. I've enjoyed the heck out of her previous books, yet I have to say I had a little bit of a frowny face when I heard this would be a new adult. I was hoping this wouldn't fall into the typical angsty/moody category, but it did. If you are a fan of this author, you will remember Willa from Bailey's first book, Protecting What's Continue Reading

In the first book, the focus is on Aaron and the aftermath of the brutal attack on him and his friend Juliette, where they were kidnapped, tortured and raped and left for dead. Juliette dies, but Aaron Continue Reading
