Review: On the Prowl by Christine Warren
On the Prowl by Christine Warren (The Others #13) Paranormal Romance April 24, 2012 Reviewed by Mandi On the Prowl is the first I’ve ever read of Christine Warren. I believe this is her thirteenth “Others” book but after doing some investigating and talking to people who are familiar with her books, this one is more of a stand alone. It introduces us to the world of The Tiguri, or tiger shifters. What initially drew me to this book is an arranged marriage. I love it when the hero and Continue Reading

Review: Undone by Lila DiPasqua
Undone by Lila DiPasqua (Fiery Tales #4) Erotic Historical Romance April 23, 2012 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I think I’ve read all of Lila DiPasqua’s previous books which are fun, erotic historicals based on fairy tales.

Review: If I Fall by Kate Noble
If I Fall by Kate Noble (The Blue Raven #4) Historical Romance April 3, 2012 Berkley Reviewed by Mandi I'm a really big fan of Kate Noble's books and highly anticipate each one. In her previous book, Follow My Lead, we briefly met Sarah Forrester, and she made quite an impact on me. I think I even mentioned in my review that I was hoping she would be a heroine. Well, my wish was granted. When we meet poor Sarah in this book, she is quite depressed. Engaged to the Duke of Rayne, she is very Continue Reading
Review: Taming an Impossible Rogue by Suzanne Enoch
Taming an Impossible Rogue by Suzanne Enoch (Scandalous Brides #2) Historical Romance March 27, 2012 St. Martin’s Lady Camille Pryce walked into her wedding ceremony, got one look at the groom, and bolted. Oh it wasn’t that he was terribly unattractive or had done anything to her. Rather, it was the complete and utter lack of his action that had her running. A romantic at heart, she had never once spoken to her betrothed (they were engaged by arrangement of their parents as children) – and Continue Reading

Review: The Duke’s Perfect Wife by Jennifer Ashley
The Dukes Perfect Wife by Jennifer Ashley (Highland Pleasures #4) Historical Romance April 3, 2012 Berkley Reviewed by Mandi I adore these Mackenzie boys, and Hart's book was a much-anticipated read for me. Hart is so … Hart. Arrogant, powerful, wealthy, and in love with Eleanor. I think the opening paragraph of the book explains Hart quite well: Hart Mackenize. It was said that he knew every pleasure a woman desired and exactly how to give it to her. Hart wouldn't ask what Continue Reading
