Review: Cake: A Love Story by J. Bengtsson
Cake: A Love Story by J. Bengtsson Cake, #1 NA Contemporary Romance May 14, 2016 Self Published Audible Reviewed by Helyce A few weeks ago, faced with another tedious and mundane task at work, I opened up Audible to search for something that would make the task at hand a bit more bearable.

Review: Stranded With The Mountain Man by Aislinn Kearns
Stranded With The Mountain Man by Aislinn Kearns Released: March 22, 2018 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I love a reclusive hero. I'm weak for it!

Review: Bad Business by Nicole Edwards
Bad Business by Nicole Edwards (Bad Boys of Sports #2) Publication Date: March 27, 2018 Contemporary/Sports Romance Loveswept Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: A blush reddens her skin from her chest to her cheeks, but she doesn’t move. “I’m gonna worship you,” I tell her, kissing her jaw. “And when I’m done making you come all over my face, I plan to fuck you until neither of us can breathe.” I like sports romance and combine that with a player getting involved with the owner’s daughter Continue Reading
Review: Escort by Skye Warren
Escort by Skye Warren Contemporary Romance Released: March 18, 2018 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I'm always game for escort books.

At the age of fifteen, after his mother died, he fell in love with an older woman who started to teach him about sex (not a fan that he was only fifteen at this point. Not a fan at all). He thought Continue Reading

They have no teeth with me. But who needs teeth when you have fangs? There are roughly, 172,000 words in the English language. The average person knows 20,000-30,000 words and uses 3,000 of them commonly. Out of all these words at my disposal, I can't find enough of them to string together Continue Reading

Review: Exposed: A Romance Anthology
Exposed: A Romance Anthology Contemporary Romance March 13, 2018 Self-Published Reviewed by Kini I picked up this antho because it had several authors that I have never read and I thought this would be a good introduction to their writing. I have been in a reading slump so reading short stories was kind of perfect for me. I only read four of the stories and will give a brief review below. All the stories have the same general theme. One of the characters has been chosen to participate Continue Reading
