Review: Harlequin E Contemporary Romance Box Set Volume 2
Harlequin Contemporary Romance Box Set Vol 2 Released: June 2, 2014 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi This boxed set contains four stories, two of which I really liked, one was just okay and one I didn't like at all. I think for the current Amazon price of $3.82, it's worth it for the two stories I enjoyed. All of these stories will be available separately in September. I'm going to review them out of order from how they appear in the set. All I Have by Nicole Continue Reading

Review: Melting into You by Tracey Alvarez
Melting Into You by Tracey Alvarez (Due South #2) Contemporary Romance Released: June 8, 2014 Icon Publishing Reviewed by Mandi Similar to book one, In too Deep, this one is cute but at times slow. Maybe even a bit slower than the first book. I think this author has a nice voice, and her books are easy to read with likable characters, but not a lot happens. Kezia Murphy's husband died four years ago and at the same time her daughter Zoe battled leukemia - so to be standing strong in Continue Reading
