Smex Scene Sunday
Hero: Cal. Mechanic. Grumpy. Growly. Grumpy some more. Heroine: Jenna. Moves back to her hometown, and back to her former lover, Cal. They start to have those darn dirty thoughts about each other again. And that leads to.... “Why are you here?” Jenna asked.

Review: Nova by Margaret Fortune
Nova by Margaret Fortune (Nova #1) Released: June 2, 2015 YA Sci Fi DAW Reviewed by Mandi I thought this book had the coolest premise: *36:00:00* The clock activates so suddenly in my mind, my head involuntarily jerks a bit to the side. The fog vanishes, dissipated in an instant as though it never was. Memories come slotting into place, their edges sharp enough to leave furrows, and suddenly I know. I know exactly who I am. My name is Lia Johansen, and I was named for a prisoner Continue Reading
Review: Kick at the Darkness by Keira Andrews
Kick at the Darkness by Keira Andrews Paranormal M/M Romance Released: May 26, 2015 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi College freshman Parker Osborne is having the worst day ever. He humiliated himself trying to pick up a cute guy, he hasn’t made any friends at school, and his stupidly hot jerk of a TA gave him a crappy grade on his paper. He’s going to drop Adam Hawkins’ film class and start fresh tomorrow after he’s had a good sulk. But Parker’s about to find out what a bad day Continue Reading
Review: The Duke’s Holiday by Maggie Fenton
The Duke's Holiday by Maggie Fenton (Regency Romp Trology #1) Released: April 2015 Historical Romance Montlake Reviewed by Mandi I recently saw this book favorably reviewed at Dear Author and it made me realize it's been awhile since I've sat down and giggled through a historical romance. This is a really fun book. The duke of Montford is a very serious, intense, dour duke. He takes his responsibilities very seriously, running a pristine estate and always doing his duty for his country. Continue Reading
