More Than Words by Mia Sheridan Releases: June 12, 2018 Contemporary Romance Most of All You, Sheridan's book published last year, is a favorite of mine. It made me feel all the feels. More Than Words was greatly anticipated, but it misses the mark. We meet Jessica and Callen as teenagers, they randomly meet one day at an abandoned train car, as they are both looking for escapism. Jessica's dad is a serial cheater and her mom falls apart each time. Callen's dad verbally abuses and shames Continue Reading
Mandi’s Review of Captivated by Tessa Bailey and Eve Dangerfield
Captivated by Tessa Bailey and Eve Dangerfield Released: June 11, 2018 Erotic Romance Self Publishe Reviewed by Mandi I've loved Tessa Bailey since her first book - and I just discovered Eve Dangerfield last year and I really like her voice. So when I saw these two were pairing up to write a book, I squeaked. And when I read this line: "Unzip my pants and greet your new keeper.” I giggled!!! Oh dirty, dirty fun. I love the set-up in this one. Autumn is from Australia and moves to Continue Reading

Hero: Blake. Landlord. Recluse. Hates most people. Heroine: Autumn. Newly single. Fantasizes about her landlord. In this scene, Blake has found Autumn's drawing, that shows her on her knees, in front of him. He starts to fantasize..... Blake’s body didn’t care about the particulars. Not right now.

Mandi’s Monday Musings: Jo Goodman and Helena Hunting
A Touch of Flame by Jo Goodman Releases: June 5, 2018 Western Historical I loved this book. It's not the fastest paced, or the sexiest but it completely worked for me. Our hero is Ben Madison, who is the newly elected sheriff of Frost Falls, Colorado. Taking place in 1898, Ben is the most easy-going, never-to-get-riled hero I've read. That doesn't mean he is stupid or doesn't care, he just likes to observe and play along real nice with the folks, to keep everyone peaceful and happy. He puts Continue Reading
