Smexy Deals

January 25, 2019 by Kini Leave a Comment

It's Friday, we made it another week. Buy yourself some books to celebrate! We've got lots of deals to choose from today. It Takes Two by Jenny Holiday. This was one of my favorite reads of 2018. The whole series is fantastic. This is a great bargain good today only. Kindle Wendy Liu should be delighted to be her best friend's maid of honor. But after years spent avoiding the bride's brother - aka the boy who once broke her heart - she's now trapped with him during an Continue Reading

Review: Rogue Desire: A Romance Anthology

August 7, 2017 by Kini Leave a Comment

Rogue Desire: A Romance Anthology The Rogue Series #1 Contemporary Romance July 20, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Kini When all else fails, find love. Eight brand new romances for fans of the West Wing, fired-up #resistance fighters, and everyone who ever had a crush on that guy at a protest… I have read several of the authors in this anthology so I was interested to see what kind of story they would tell, especially as it related to resistance. I am pretty bad at reading Continue Reading

Review: Real World by Amy Jo Cousins

November 19, 2015 by Mandi Leave a Comment

Real World by Amy Jo Cousins (Bend or Break #5) M/M Contemporary Novella Released: November 17, 2015 Samhain Reviewed by Mandi Late last year I read Off Campus by Amy Jo Cousins featuring Tom and Reese. I really enjoyed it and was happy to see a new novella that revisits this couple. Tom and Reese meet in college both dealing with dark issues. Tom's dad had been arrested for a massive Ponzi scheme and Reese was recovering after a sexual assault. Reese was openly gay, Tom thought he was Continue Reading

Review: The Girl Next Door by Amy Jo Cousins

July 2, 2015 by Mandi 4 Comments

The Girl Next Door by Amy Jo Cousins (Bend or Break #3) Released: June 16, 2015 Contemporary Romance Samhain Reviewed by Mandi Kaetrin who reviews for Dear Author tweeted me a few days ago and recommend this book. She said the phrase, "straight guy BJ" and I was sold. A straight guy participating in a blow job with another man is like my unicorn. (More like a unicorn with two horns). I digress. There is much more to this story than BJs. Cash is one of the most likable heroes I've Continue Reading

Review: Callie Unwrapped by Amy Jo Cousins

January 7, 2015 by Sheena 3 Comments

Callie Unwrapped by Amy Jo Cousins (Play It Again #1) Contemporary Romance Released November 17, 2014 Self Published Reviewed by Sheena Blurb: Callie isn’t sure just how kinky anyone can get on a Tuesday before Christmas, but she’s willing to find out. That is, assuming this first drink at a pool hall with her ex, Gabe, and his girl, Kate, doesn’t send anyone screaming from the bar. Newly divorced after years of sleep-walking through occasional sex, she’s hoping to find her way back to Continue Reading

Review: Off Campus by Amy Jo Cousins

December 30, 2014 by Mandi 1 Comment

Off Campus by Amy Jo Cousins (Bend or Break #1) M/M New Adult Romance Released: December 30, 2014 Samhain Reviewed by Mandi All Tom wants to do is graduate from college and start a career - to basically live a normal life. But last year when his father was arrested by the FBI for one of the largest price-fixing takedowns ever, his life is no longer so normal. Besides his family's name being on the front page of every newspaper, Tom no longer has any money, which means paying for college Continue Reading

Smex Scene Sunday

December 28, 2014 by Mandi 1 Comment

Hero: Tom. Twenty-two, trying to finish college after a big family scandal. Tired. Cranky. Bi-sexual. Hero: Reese. Trying to finish school after an assault. Gay, kind, sweet, scared.   Tom and Reese are forced together as roommates and they don't get a long (it's fun). To annoy Tom, Reese brings back guy after guy to their dorm room - unknown to him, Tom starts to enjoy it....   Tom could see the moment when the boy’s dick must have pushed into Reese’s throat because the Continue Reading

Review: Harlequin Contemporary Boxed Set #3

September 18, 2014 by Mandi 2 Comments

Harlequin Contemporary Boxed Set #3 Released: September 1, 2014 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi Note: I'm only reviewing two of the four stories in this set. I believe each story will be sold separately sometime in the future.   When the Lights go Down by Amy Jo Cousins Maxie Tyler is Chicago’s toughest stage manager. Her latest gig is just the break she needs, and she’s not going to let anyone get in her way. Not even the producer with dreamy blue eyes Continue Reading

Harlequin Contemporary Romance Box Set Volume One

February 20, 2014 by Mandi 6 Comments

Harlequin Contemporary Romance Box Set Volume One featuring Sarina Bowen, Rebecca Avery, Amy Jo Cousins and Denise McDonald Released: February 3, 2014 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi Coming in from the Cold by Sarina Bowen Alpine ski champion Dane “Danger” Hollister does not do relationships, though he has an excellent reason. No woman would ever say “I do” to a guy whose faulty DNA will eventually cost him everything: his spot on the US Ski team, his endorsements, Continue Reading
