Her Kowalski series has quickly gone to one of my most anticipated series. In this book we get a hero who was so Continue Reading
Review: Getting Hotter by Elle Kennedy
Getting Hotter by Elle Kennedy (Out of Uniform #8) Released: November 20, 2012 Erotic Contemporary Romance Samhain Reviewed by Mandi Earlier this year, I read my first Elle Kennedy book, Feeling Hot and immediately purchased her back list and read all of her Out of Uniform series.

Top Ten Reasons to read Leave Me Breathless by Cherrie Lynn
A few days ago, I saw Kati tweet something about a tattooed hero, and immediately had to click the link to see what she was talking about.

The hero, Seth “Ghost” Warren is a tattoo artist, with a shaved head and a pierced peen. Do I Continue Reading
Review: Rescue My Heart by Jill Shalvis

The first two in this Animal series were okay but lacked a little something. But Rescue My Heart really delivers with a broody hero and a heroine who is almost as stubborn as he is. Adam was the bad boy growing up. Having a rough childhood, his Continue Reading

Checkmate by R.L. Mathewson (Neighbors From Hell #3) Contemporary Romance Released: October 29, 2012 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “Oh my God!” a woman whispered loudly. “They’re going to do it on the front lawn!” This past summer I read my first RL Mathewson book, Playing for Keeps.
