Mandi’s Monday Musings

May 21, 2018 by Mandi 3 Comments

Mandi’s Monday Musings

We are going to try a new format at Smexy. Each day, one reviewer will post all the books she has read in the past seven days. Sometimes it may be long reviews like you are used to seeing. Sometimes they will be mini reviews. This gives each reviewer a week to read books, and their own day to talk about them. Mandi is Monday, Tori Tuesday, Sheena Wednesday, Helyce Thursday and Kini Friday. The Top Ten will be coming back this week, and we will still post a wrap-up and Smex Scene over the Continue Reading

Review: Tempted by the Billionaire Next Door by Therese Beharrie

Review: Tempted by the Billionaire Next Door by Therese Beharrie

Tempted by the Billionaire Next Door by Therese Beharrie Released: May 1, 2018 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi I've read two of Therese Beharrie's books recently United by Their Royal Baby and Falling for his Convenient Queen, and I really enjoyed them. This one didn't quite live up to the others I've read, but I found the premise interesting. Set in Cape Town, South Africa, Jess is having a good time while staying at Anja's house - her best friend, and boss. Her Continue Reading

Review: The Viking Queen’s Men by Holley Trent

April 16, 2018 by Mandi Leave a Comment

The Viking Queen's Men by Holley Trent (Afótama Legacy #1) Released: October 2014 Paranormal M/F/M Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Is there anything better than a book recommendation via Twitter? I love it when people are enthusiastic about a book. Thanks to Lillie, I saw her telling everyone to read this, and I hopped on that train. I didn't even read the blurb - so imagine my surprise when this turned out to be a male/female/male HEA. And a believable one at that. Let me also say, it Continue Reading

Review: Feud by Phyllis Bourne

Review: Feud by Phyllis Bourne

Feud by Phyllis Bourne Released: February 8, 2018 Contemporary Novella Self Published Reviewed by Mandi A novella-length, romantic comedy from Phyllis Bourne made me snort-laugh up until the end. There is a hundred-plus year old feud between the Lawson and Bridges family. Owning neighboring houses, the rest of the houses on the street have all been demolished by various storms throughout the years. When the very elderly Lawson gentleman passes away, Justice Bridges thinks his family has Continue Reading

Review: Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone

Review: Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone

Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone (Royals Undercover #1) Released: April 2, 2018 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I'm all about the royals these days and when I read this blurb, what stood out to me is the heroine is in charge of guarding the royals (aka the hero). This is a really cute, super sexy story and I definitely recommend it. But let me also tell you that it's part one of a two-book series and it ends in a cliffhanger. The second book, Cheeky King, comes out Continue Reading

Review: Falling for His Convenient Queen by Therese Beharrie

Review: Falling for His Convenient Queen by Therese Beharrie

Falling for His Convenient Queen (Royally Bound #2) Released: February 1, 2018 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi This is the second book set in same world of three kingdoms trying to keep an alliance so their people stay safe and feel secure, but the politics of marriage and power create some chaos. I enjoyed United by Their Royal Baby - both marriage of convenience tropes - but I think I liked this one even  more. It has such a sweet romance. Zacchaeus has become the Continue Reading

Review: United by Their Royal Baby by Therese Beharrie

United by Their Royal Baby by Therese Beharrie Contemporary Romance Released: December 18, 2017 Bills Moon Forever Romance Reviewed by Mandi Yes, the title wooed me. I love a marriage of convenience book and I liked the blurb: When Queen Leyna of Aidara took the throne, she walked away from her first love, King Xavier of Mattan, putting duty first. Now their kingdoms are under threat, and the only way to bring stability is with a royal union. Leyna knows the man she loved has Continue Reading

Review: His Convenient Husband by Robin Covington

October 24, 2017 by Mandi Leave a Comment

Review: His Convenient Husband by Robin Covington

His Convenient Husband by Robin Covington (Love and Sports #1) Released: October 9, 2017 M/M Contemporary Romance Entangled Reviewed by Mandi A contemporary, male/male, marriage of convenience book?? It's my candy! Isaiah is a NFL football player, who lost his husband three years prior to the book starting. His late husband was quiet, and serious and together they never made any drama - which is how the big guns at the top of the NFL chain like to keep it when it comes to handling gay Continue Reading

Review: Sanctuary by Rebekah Weatherspoon

Review: Sanctuary by Rebekah Weatherspoon

Sanctuary by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Beards and Bondage #2) Released: August 29, 2017 Erotic BDSM Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I quite enjoyed Haven, book one in this series earlier this year (both are stand alones) and Sanctuary was a hit for me as well. As in Haven, this book starts with quite a suspenseful scene. Our heroine, Liz, an attorney, who goes home one day after a long day of work, to find a man in her apartment, waiting to kill her. Liz is able to eventually take the heel Continue Reading
