Review: Tease Me Tonight by Jules Court
Tease Me Tonight by Jules Court (Hot in the City #3) Released: July 31, 2017 Contemporary Novella Carina Press Reviewed by Mandi I first read Jules Court a few months ago, when I read book two of this series, Enticing the Enemy.

But I really enjoy this author's voice. Her books are fun, and super sexy Continue Reading

Review: Stud by Jamie K. Schmidt
Stud by Jamie K. Schmidt Contemporary Romance Released: July 25, 2017 Loveswept Reviewed by Sheena Favorite Quote: “What were you going to use the six million dollars you stole from your sons?” And because I was behaving myself, I didn’t add "Botox?" to the end of that sentence. Stud. When I think of a stud, I kind of smirk. They tend to be more corny than sexy in my eyes. Even so, the cover and blurb swayed me and I'm no worse for the wear. This is my first Jamie K. Schmidt Continue Reading
