The Corner of Forever and Always by Lia Riley Series: Everland, Georgia #2 Contemporary Romance September 26, 2017 Forever Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: “Fuck the necklace. You’re the magic.” This is the second in a series that takes place in a small town in Georgia. The town and its various residents are pretty much characters in their own right. I think that small town can be run the risk of being too cutesy or too much time spent on the other inhabitants. This book had a few Continue Reading

Review: Maybe This Christmas by Jennifer Snow
Maybe This Christmas by Jennifer Snow (Colorado Ice #3) Released: September 26, 2017 Contemporary Romance Forever Reviewed by Mandi I love to try holiday romance, but to be honest, I find that the majority I try just don't do it for me. I've found some super great holiday reads, but I go in a little wary. Jennifer Snow is a new to me author, and I love a hockey hero so I gave it a try and hooray, I liked it! It's not necessarily super-holiday, but hockey is prominent and it's a well Continue Reading

Review: Diving In by Kristina Mathews
Diving In by Kristina Mathews Released: September 19, 2017 Contemporary Romance Lyrical Reviewed by Mandi Are adventure company romances the "in" thing right now? I've read several - including a m/m series from Lynda Aicher and a recent Nicole Helm series. I'm not a whitewater raft person by any means - give me a tube, a creek, and a cooler that floats. But I am drawn to this trope. But, not this book. This one did not work for me at all. I did like the heroine - but that's about it Continue Reading

This is the third book in a series and I strongly recommend that you read the previous two, especially book one.
