Claimed by the Highland Warrior
Claimed by the Highland Warrior Historical Romance April 19, 2011 Paperback Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi The first word that comes to mind after I finished this book is "pleasant.” Which is not necessarily a bad thing, but at the same time, the book is missing something. I wanted a little more emotional “oomph” throughout. I don’t want my highlander’s to be just pleasant darn it! I want some excitement! Some dirty kilt lifting! I want OOMPH! This book doesn’t quite deliver Continue Reading
Guest Review: Blood Wicked by Sharon Page
Blood Wicked by Sharon Page Erotic paranormal romance Feb. 22, 2011 Paperback Aphrodisia/Kensington Today Chelsea from Vampire Book Club is guest reviewing! Take it away Chelsea.

It’s also a book I kept close to my chest lest my husband catch a paragraph or two over my shoulder and I’d be forced to explain why I was engrossed in a passage Continue Reading

And of course the kids eyes cleared up in like five minutes. Hubs took the eye drops and then had an allergic reaction to the medication and woke up the next day with both of his eyes swollen shut. I got cocky (yes, I said “cocky”) after the first day and didn’t keep up with the drops so now I have it again, and it won’t go away. Seriously Continue Reading

Collision Course by Zoe Archer (8th Wing #1) Sci-Fi April 4, 2011 E-Book Carina Press Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “Launching,” she murmured, “in five, four, three, two, one. Hang on to your balls, Commander.” I really enjoyed Zoe Archer’s Blades of the Rose series this past year. Now she has the start of a new series going in a different direction – Sci Fi. I don’t read a lot of sci fi but I had a feeling I would like this one because I love Zoe Archer’s style – and I guessed Continue Reading
