Review: Save a Truck, Ride a Redneck by Molly Harper
Save a Truck, Ride a Redneck by Molly Harper (Southern Eclectic #.5) Released: October 26, 2017 Contemporary Novella Pocket Star Reviewed by Mandi It wasn't until I finished this novella, and went to the series list on Goodreads to see when the first, full length book was coming out, that I realized this is a prequel of sorts to Sweet Tea and Sympathy, a book Tori recently reviewed. Tori loved that book by the way - so I will have to check it out. This book has a really cute and Continue Reading
Review: Melting Snow by Leora Gonzales
Melting Snow by Leora Gonzales (Braving the Heat #1) Released: November 21, 2017 Contemporary Novella Lyrical Press Reviewed by Mandi When I agreed to review this one, I didn't realize it was only fifty pages. On top of that, it ends at the 80% mark on the kindle. So we are talking short. But that wasn't the most frustrating thing in this book - I disliked the hero sooooo much. Winter Snow is our heroine, in her mid twenties and struggling financially to make it through college. She Continue Reading
Review: Beginner’s Luck by Kate Clayborn
Beginner’s Luck by Kate Clayborn (Chance of a Lifetime #1) Contemporary Romance October 31, 2017 Lyrical Shine Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: “What does that mean?” I’m intentionally vague with my question. Maybe I’m asking what it means for Beaumont’s pursuit of me. Maybe I’m asking what it means for him and his job. But maybe I’m asking what it means for him and me. Because when I think of being “involved” with Ben, I think about his clothes on my bedroom floor. I think about all Continue Reading

Review: Most Eligible Bastard by Annika Martin
Most Eligible Bastard by Annika Martin Contemporary Romance Released: November 7, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I've enjoyed Annika Martin's (aka Carolyn Crane) voice for some time - her books usually involve zany bad guys and are erotic. This one doesn't have a bad guy - just a hero who starts off a little....bastardy. But he is actually a great guy - it just takes some time for that side to be noticed. Henry Locke is the CEO of a very large construction/poperty company. He Continue Reading
Review: Hooking Up by Helena Hunting
Hooking Up by Helena Hunting Released: November 7, 2017 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi All I wanted was a nice wedding. Instead I end up with a husband who gets a blow job during our reception - and it's broadcast to everyone attending. I've enjoyed Helena Hunting's voice in the past - she usually makes me giggle and highlight all of her over-the-top silly quotes. Her books are super fun. Hooking Up is also fun, and a great read, but it's not as raunchy and goofy Continue Reading

Snowed in lovers, couples reuniting under the mistletoe, finding love on the slopes and HEA's that coincide with Continue Reading
