Review: The Wolf Lord by Ann Aguirre
The Wolf Lord by Ann Aguirre Ars Numina, #3 PNR/Fantasy March 14, 2018 Self Published Favorite Quote: “Maybe a marriage of convenience to a wicked wolf wasn’t so bad after all.” Reviewed by Tori Roguish. Reckless. Unreliable. Raff Pineda has a certain reputation among the Animari. He’s the one to call if there’s a party starting, not the man to rely on when all hell breaks loose. Though he’s nominally the leader of the Pine Ridge pack, he defers to his second on the tough calls. Continue Reading
Review: Harbinger by Emily Meredith
Harbinger by Emily Meredith Released: March 13, 2018 Urban Fantasy Self Published Reviewed by Mandi A debut urban fantasy featuring demons and nephilim. I tend to not sway towards demons necessarily, - but I read an excerpt when I received this review request and I liked it. Even better, I enjoyed this entire book (except for the end but we will get to that!) When Annabel's uncle dies, she is shocked. She had not spoken to him for fifteen years, but the loss of him still upsets her. Continue Reading
Review: Fast Burn by Lori Foster

As the owner of Body Armor, she is always on the lookout for a very specific type of man who she could add to her agency. It’s no secret that Sahara’s brand of bodyguard is Continue Reading
Review: Thirsty by Mia Hopkins
Thirsty by Mia Hopkins Eastside Brewery, #1 Contemporary Romance March 13, 2018 Loveswept Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “You want a hero. Before we start, you should know---I’m not him. I’m not your hero. A hero is Prince charming, a firefighter, a cowboy. He's handsome and perfect. He’s probably white. He has his shite together. None of that is me.” Salvador (Sal) Rosa has just been released from prison after serving a five year stretch for boasting cars and other Continue Reading

Review: Burn Bright by Patricia Briggs
Burn Bright by Patricia Briggs (Alpha & Omega #5) Released: March 6, 2018 Urban Fantasy Ace Reviewed by Mandi The Alpha & Omega series is set in the same world as Briggs' Mercy Thompson series. Over the years, I have found A&O to be consistently amazing, where as sometimes I find Mercy Thompson series to be just okay. (Although overall, both series swirl around as urban fantasy favorites). Briggs is a terrific storyteller. She presents strong, flawed, sometimes terrifying Continue Reading

Review: Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas
Hello Stranger by Lisa Kleypas (Ravenels #4) Released: February 27, 2018 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi "I was taught that satisfying a woman propery should take at least as long as making dough for bread." Garrett writhed helplessly. "How long is that?" "You don't know?" he asked, amused. "No, I can't cook." I read the Publishers Weekly's review of this book a few weeks ago, which pretty much slams it as a silly, non-plausible book and laughs it off. It made me have Continue Reading
