The Prince by Tiffany Reisz (The Original Sinners #3) Erotic Contemporary Releases: November 20, 2012 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi The Prince is book three of the Original Sinners series by Tiffany Reisz. A continuing story that revolves around writer and retired dominatrix Nora Sutherland. At the end of The Angel, Nora ran from Søren into the arms of her beloved, virginal Wes. This broke my heart, as I went from fearing/hating Søren in book one, to falling in love with his Continue Reading
Review: One Night with a Hero by Laura Kaye
One Night with a Hero by Laura Kaye (The Hero #2) Released: October 20, 2012 Contemporary Romance Entangled Publishing Reviewed by Mandi This is the first I’ve read by Laura Kaye. I actually almost didn’t pick this one up because the blurb tells of a one night stand that leads to a pregnancy. Not my favorite set-up. But the cover is so hot (I can’t help myself!) I decided to give it a try. I’m glad I did. Brady Scott who is in the Army Special Forces is home on leave. He grew Continue Reading
Top Ten Reasons to read Leave Me Breathless by Cherrie Lynn
A few days ago, I saw Kati tweet something about a tattooed hero, and immediately had to click the link to see what she was talking about. The link took me to the Leave Me Breathless by Cherrie Lynn Goodreads page. I had never heard of Cherrie Lynn before (you all have failed me!) but saw this book already had a ton of very positive reviews. So I one-clicked it, and ended up really enjoying this one. The hero, Seth “Ghost” Warren is a tattoo artist, with a shaved head and a pierced peen. Do I Continue Reading
Review: Rescue My Heart by Jill Shalvis
Rescue My Heart by Jill Shalvis (Animal Magnetism #3) Contemporary Romance Released: November 6, 2012 Berkley Reviewed by Mandi I really enjoy Jill Shalvis’s voice and her Lucky Harbor series is one of my favorite contemporary series. The first two in this Animal series were okay but lacked a little something. But Rescue My Heart really delivers with a broody hero and a heroine who is almost as stubborn as he is. Adam was the bad boy growing up. Having a rough childhood, his Continue Reading
Review: Checkmate by R.L. Mathewson
Checkmate by R.L. Mathewson (Neighbors From Hell #3) Contemporary Romance Released: October 29, 2012 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “Oh my God!” a woman whispered loudly. “They’re going to do it on the front lawn!” This past summer I read my first RL Mathewson book, Playing for Keeps. (and for $.99 it’s so worth it). I was on an airplane when I started it, and I was laughing so loud I had to keep putting my hand over my mouth so I didn’t disturb the Continue Reading

Review: Exposed to You by Beth Kery
Exposed to You by Beth Kery Released: November 6, 2012 Erotic Contemporary Berkley Reviewed by Mandi I’m a big fan of Beth Kery. She not only gives us some smokin’ hot sex, but a really well done story in this book. Let me also note, while these are all stand alones, she previously published two books, Addicted to You and Bound to You under the pen name Bethany Kane. The hero and heroines from those books are brought in as supporting characters in this book. I highly recommend Continue Reading
