Becca is almost done getting her degree to become a social worker. With the stress of studying, Continue Reading

Review: Wildest Dreams by Robyn Carr
Wildest Dreams by Robyn Carr (Thunder Point #9) Contemporary Romance August 25, 2015 Mira Reviewed by Helyce As a fan of Robyn Carr, I find it impossible to say no when offered an arc for a new book. Though this particular series has been hit and miss for me, at this stage with book 9 being released, I’m invested and have formed attachments to the characters and their stories. So I really try to approach each installment with an open mind. Unfortunately, while this story started off Continue Reading

Review: Sustained by Emma Chase
Sustained by Emma Chase (The Legal Briefs #2) Released: Contemporary Romance Gallery Reviewed by Mandi Long, long ago I tried Tangled by this author, and I didn't like the hero. I can't remember exactly why, but he just didn't work for me. So I never tried her again - but then Jane from Dear Author told me she thought I'd like this one, so I gave it a try. And she was right! I giggle-snorted through this sexy romance. Jake Becker is a very successful criminal defense attorney. He has Continue Reading
