Smex Scene Sunday
I actually won Wild Burn a couple of months ago but being the slack loser I am, I set it aside to read when I had some down time. Plus, you all know how I feel about Westerns. They scare me. I started hearing the buzz from other readers about how FREAKING GOOD it was and thought to myself, HEY! I have this book. I’m going to give it a shot.” Imagine my surprise when I started reading at 11pm and didn’t stop till I was finished. I absolutely LOVED this book. Our hero and heroine are Continue Reading

Review: The Trouble With Being Wicked by Emma Locke
The Trouble With Being Wicked by Emma Locke (The Naughty Girls #1) Historical Romance December 18, 2012 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I believe this is the debut for Emma Locke and with a cute cover and a cute blurb, I had to try it. At times this book was rather adorable, and at times this book was rather slow. I think overall this author has the potential to write a charming, sexy book. This one didn’t quite make it there for me though. Celeste Gray is a very well known Continue Reading

So all of my friends have been telling me to read Reaper’s Property by Joanna Wylde. I have had recs that have said – “You must read. You’ll hate-read it.

Why do we have weaknesses for the asshole (yet lovable) hero?? It’s on my kindle. I shall read soon… Goodreads l Kindle l Ellora’s Cave Blurb: Marie doesn’t need Continue Reading
