Review: Primal Instinct by Tara Wyatt

June 7, 2016 by Mandi

Primal Instinct by Tara Wyatt (Bodyguard #2) Released: May 31, 2016 Romantic Suspense Forever Reviewed by Mandi Book two in this bodyguard series, I didn't enjoy the suspense part as much but the romance worked well for me. Taylor has had a hit record that made her a very big music star. But now she is in a rut - trying to find that creative juice to make another record under the pressure of a deadline. She also had a tiny incident on a plane, that involved joining the mile high Continue Reading

Review: Claiming Her by Kris Kennedy

June 3, 2016 by Mandi

Claiming Her by Kris Kennedy (Renegades & Outlaws #1) Released: May 6, 2016 Historical Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: He was magnificent. What a terrible, terrible thing. Any moment now, he was going to do something wild and barbaric. What a fun book. A rebel Irish hero, with the sides of his head shaved and tattoos covering his body. And a heroine, loyal to the English throne, who has kept her Irish castle from invaders for years....until the hero Continue Reading

Review: Dirty Sexy Inked by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde

She was the other half of his soul.” Mason Kincaid and Katrina (Kat) Sands have been best friends for years since the day Mason stepped in to save Katrina from a trio of bullies. From that day on, they watched out for one another and shared their deepest secrets. Now older, Kat is the manager of Mason’s tattoo shop and they remain as Continue Reading

Review: The Darkest Torment by Gena Showalter

June 1, 2016 by Tori

The Darkest Torment by Gena Showalter Series: Lords of the Underworld (LOTU), #12 Paranormal Romance May 31, 2016 Harlequin Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote:  “...I’m a girl and girls are made of...” “Sugar and spice,” he interjected, remembering the rhyme. “Wrong. Girls are made of vodka and ice. The two combined increase our tolerance for masculine nonsense.” Driven to his death by the demon of Distrust, Baden spent centuries in purgatory. Now he's back, but at what cost? Continue Reading

Review: Marrying Winterborne by Lisa Kleypas

May 31, 2016 by Mandi

Marrying Winterborne by Lisa Kleypas (The Ravenels #2) Released: May 31, 2016 Historical Romance Avon Reviewed by Mandi I enjoyed this book more than book one, so yay for that! We meet Rhys and Helen in book (although this can be read as a standalone). They fall in love in book one, they get engaged in book one. What's left for this book, right? Well, at the end of book one (omg I'll stop saying "book one") they have a fight and they break up. This is where book two starts. Rhys was Continue Reading

Review: Torn by Cynthia Eden

May 30, 2016 by Tori

Forensic anthropologist Victoria Palmer has always been better with the dead than the living. Shutting down her emotions, she lets few people in. But then Victoria’s latest investigation takes her and agent Wade Monroe to Savannah, Georgia. Handsome, dangerous, and more than ready to play dirty on any case, Continue Reading

Review: Deep Dark by Laura Griffin

May 25, 2016 by Mandi

Deep Dark by Laura Griffin (Tracers #10) Romantic Suspense Released: May 24, 2016 Pocket Books Reviewed by Mandi I'll say it again - I love this romantic suspense series by Laura Griffin. So well done. Deep Dark has a thirty-nine year old homicide detective hero and a twenty-four year old cybercrime hacker - and their chemistry is soooo good. When a girl who was just starting out in life is found horribly murdered in her home, police want to find the murderer fast. But there is no Continue Reading

Review: Showmance by L.H. Cosway

May 23, 2016 by Tori

Showmance by L.H. Cosway Romance Contemporary May 16, 2016 Self Published Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “The greatest thing you’ll ever learn is to just love and be loved in return.” Fans are sure to notice the deviation in plot and characterization that Cosway takes in her latest endeavor. Showmance is a sweet, sexy, mildly angst driven romance that perfectly showcases the allure of opposite attraction by slowing building a relationship between an introvert and a romantic. Mild Continue Reading
