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

Review: The Other Brother by Meghan Quinn
The Other Brother by Meghan Quinn Contemporary/New Adult Romance November 2, 2017 Self-Published Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: I want you forever, Amelia. Please say you’ll be my forever.” With my hands gripping him tightly, my legs not letting go, and my mind fixated on one man and one man alone, I say, “I will be your forever, Aaron.

Review: Rewritten by Bronwyn Green
Rewritten by Bronwyn Green (Bound #8) Released: September 27, 2017 Contemporary/BDSM Self Published Reviewed by Mandi This one had its ups and downs for me. For the most part I enjoyed it, but it did have a little slower beginning and a rushed ending - and I wasn't super into the BDSM aspect of it. But the hero and heroine are cute together. Angus is a Scottish popular sci-fi author who has a hit a rut. A big rut. He was going to end his series, but then was offered a bunch of money Continue Reading
Review: Ready for Wild by Liora Blake
Ready for Wild by Liora Blake (Grand Valley #3) Released: October 31, 2017 Contemporary Romance Gallery Books Reviewed by Mandi I really enjoyed the first two books in this series and picked this one up without even reading the blurb. Had I read the blurb, I may not have proceeded: Blurb: Braden Montgomery is certain about three things: one, luck is for suckers; two, time spent outdoors is what keeps him sane; and, three, when it comes to sharing his bed, there’s only one female he’s Continue Reading
Review: The Proposition by Elizabeth Hayley
The Proposition by Elizabeth Hayley The Players #2 Contemporary Romance October 31, 2017 Swerve Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: This kiss was a promise— a promise that there could be more. That their story didn’t have to only be about a hockey player and an escort. It could be about Ben and Ryan. And that would be more than enough. It would, in fact, be everything. The blurb for this book got me with its description of a fake romance, one of my favorite tropes. Also at first glance Continue Reading
Review: Christmastime Cowboy by Maisey Yates
Christmastime Cowboy by Maisey Yates (Copper Ridge #10) Contemporary Romance Released: October 24, 2017 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: "Honey, I only know how to be inappropriate. And I think you like that about me." I'll start every Maisey Yates review by saying she is my go-to comfort read author. The story arcs and the set-up all might be a little similar, but I like it. I know what I'm going to get with a Yates book. Her heroes seem to be always a little gruff - Continue Reading
