Review: The Importance of Being Scandalous by Kimberly Bell

July 31, 2017 by Mandi

The Importance of Being Scandalous by Kimberly Bell (Tale of Two Sisters #1) Released: July 25, 2017 Historical Romance Entangled Reviewed by Mandi Oh this book. It has some very well done and clever banter (one of my favorite things) and it has a sister relationship that I adored. But it also has a "get rid of the fiance" story line that goes through the entire book and I got super tired of it. Growing up on neighboring properties, Nicholas and Amelia or Mia, have been very good Continue Reading

Faking It by Christine d’Abo Series: Ringside Romance #2 Genre: Contemporary Romance, M/M romance, Published: May, 8 2017 Publisher: Riptide Publishing Length: 238 Reviewed by Tracey Favorite Quote: “Memories were a strange animal.

Review: Eye Candy by Jessica Lemmon

July 26, 2017 by Helyce

Eye Candy by Jessica Lemmon (Real Love #1) Contemporary Romance July 25, 2017 Loveswept Reviewed by Helyce From Goodreads: Jacqueline: As an adult woman--and the vice president of a marketing firm--I shouldn't be waiting by my office window to ogle the mystery man who jogs by every morning at 11:45. Sure, he's a gorgeous, perfect specimen of the human race, but I can't bring myself to hit on a total stranger. However, my best friend-slash-colleague Vince Carson thinks I should do more Continue Reading

Wildfire by Ilona Andrews (Hidden Legacy #3) Released: July 25, 2017 Urban Fantasy Avon Reviewed by May I had been hugged by a giant, super intelligent, pacifist bear. I could do this. I could do anything. I just had to walk in and call for a family meeting. Connor “Mad” Rogan and Nevada Baylor are back in the third and final installment of their series. Book two left us with huge questions and open issues – and I am happy to say that in this third installment we do find a fairly Continue Reading

Hate to Want You by Alisha Rai (Forbidden Hearts #1) Released: July 25, 2017 Contemporary Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: "You never told me why you decided your car is a woman." "Because no man could ever handle my ass for this long." Alisha Rai has a new series and it's angst-filled from page one. I enjoyed it. I've seen it mentioned that this book is like Romeo and Juliet, except with a happy ending. And that is right on target. We have two enemy families, Continue Reading
