Smexy’s Top Ten

News from Mandi: I didn’t get much reading in this week – darn holidays! I did get Christmas shopping done, though – yay! Anyway…

Semper-Fi by Keira Andrews is a WWII m/m romance. It alternates between 1942 when they meet during the war and 1948 after the war. One hero was married to a woman, and after her death, eventually falls for the other hero. This one didn’t really do it for me. I didn’t care for their romance – I liked their friendship but the romance didn’t feel…real to me. Review coming.

Love’s Last Call by Beth Matthews has a very strong first half. Geeky/beta hero who is desperate for a job becomes a bouncer and falls for a waitress. They are cute together. Second half drags on a bit and I just wanted them to get together. Review coming.

Next up is The Masseuse by Sierra Kincade. I’ll report back!
