Egomaniac by Vi Keeland Publication Date: January 17, 2017 Contemporary Romance Everafter Romance Reviewed by Kini The night I met Drew Jagger, he'd just broken into my new Park Avenue office. I dialed 9-1-1 before proceeding to attack him with my fancy new Krav Maga skills. He quickly restrained me, then chuckled, finding my attempted assault amusing. Of course, my intruder had to be arrogant. Only, turned out, he wasn't an intruder at all. Drew was the rightful occupant of Continue Reading
Review: The Rule Maker by Jennifer Blackwood
The Rule Maker by Jennifer Blackwood (The Rule Breakers #2) Released: January 16, 2017 Contemporary Romance Entangled Reviewed by Mandi I adored The Rule Book last year and was excited to try another from Jennifer Blackwood. This one is just as good - maybe even better. And just to put out there - there are sex scenes this time! I know a few people who didn't read the first book due to fade to black scenes. That book had such great sexual tension it was a bit of a let down to have the Continue Reading
Review: Wild Kisses by Skye Jordan
Wild Kisses by Skye Jordan Series: Wildwood, #2 Contemporary Romance Released: January 10, 2017 Montlake Romance Reviewed by Sheena Favorite Quote: “I still feel like I’m in a dream. All anxious that I’m going to wake up and I’m still going to be fighting to reach this dream.” You can't keep a good gal down! It has been a while since I've enjoyed a heroine like Avery. Initially coming off as quiet and meek and ripe for being taken advantage of, I was concerned that her personality would be Continue Reading
Review: Perfect Game by Casey Cameron
Perfect Game by Casey Cameron (Legendary Pairs #1) Released: January 1, 2017 M/M Contemporary Novella Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I love a nerdy romance and this fit the bill quite nicely. Neil is an awkward guy - a research biologist getting his PhD, living in a new city has Neil a little lonely. One thing that gets him out of the house is playing in Legendary Pairs tournaments. Legendary Pairs is a fast-paced card game - I don't know what I can compare it to - but it features Continue Reading

Fearless by Lauren Gilley (Dartmoor #1) Released: January 2015 Motorcycle Club Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “I wanted to be special to you." "Fillette, you were always that.” It's been a while since I've read a big, epic book and throw on top of it the fact that this book is a motorcycle club romance - something that has been missing from my life recently, and I was set to snuggle in and be drawn into the world of the Lean Dogs.

Joint Review: On Broken Wings by Chanel Cleeton
On Broken Wings by Chanel Cleeton (Wild Aces #3) Released: January 3, 2017 Contemporary Romance Berkley Reviewed by Kini and Mandi Kini: I read Fly with Me, book one in the series, earlier this year. It was a middle of the road read for me, except for the relationship between Dani and Easy. I LOVE the trope where one character loves the other from afar, but doesn’t/can’t make a move. Because I am a horrible person, I felt okay about the circumstances that allowed for Dani and Continue Reading
