Review: Recipe for Satisfaction by Gina Gordon

February 21, 2013 by Mandi 15 Comments

Recipe For Satisfaction by Gina Gordon (Madewood Brothers #1) Contemporary Romance January 1, 2013 Entangled Reviewed by Mandi For some reason chef heroes never work for me. Why is that? So I’m not sure why I accepted a book for review that features four brothers (foster brothers) who are all chefs. But I’m glad I did because this one is cute. They are all in this profession because their foster mother who they all loved and adored (she passed away recently) brought them into her Continue Reading

Review: Game For Marriage by Karen Erickson

February 14, 2013 by Mandi Leave a Comment

Game for Marriage by Karen Erickson (Game for It #1) Contemporary Romance January 11, 2013 Entangled Reviewed by Mandi I think pretend marriage, or marriage of convenience stories in a contemporary are a hard sell, although in the past I’ve found a few that have really worked for me. Unfortunately, this wasn’t one of them. As a reader, you obviously have to be convinced that these two people have no other option than to marry. I was never convinced of this. Jared is a Continue Reading

February 1, 2013 by admin 1 Comment

Holding out for a Hero by Christine Bell, Ella Dane, Tamara Morgan, Nico Rosso, and Adrien Luc-Sanders Paranormal Romance January 14, 2013 Entangled Publishing   I am hoping for more super hero romance fiction in 2013, so imagine my delight when I saw this anthology with over five hundred pages and four stories! With two new stories and two previously published ones, Holding Out For a Hero has a nice mix of stories and brings some heat as well. Christine Bell and Ella Dane - Continue Reading

Review: One Night with a Hero by Laura Kaye

November 16, 2012 by Mandi 5 Comments

One Night with a Hero by Laura Kaye (The Hero #2) Released: October 20, 2012 Contemporary Romance Entangled Publishing Reviewed by Mandi This is the first I’ve read by Laura Kaye. I actually almost didn’t pick this one up because the blurb tells of a one night stand that leads to a pregnancy. Not my favorite set-up. But the cover is so hot (I can’t help myself!) I decided to give it a try. I’m glad I did. Brady Scott who is in the Army Special Forces is home on leave. He grew Continue Reading

Review: Construction Beauty Queen by Sara Daniel

Review: Playing with Fire by Tamara Morgan

September 20, 2012 by admin 1 Comment

Playing with Fire by Tamara Morgan Paranormal Romance Released: September 7, 2012 Entangled Reviewed by May  Theirs was a classic tale- if classic played by Freudian rules.

Ian Jones is a scientist, and currently he’s working on some super secret stuff to try and help track down the Corrupted and keep the world a safer place.

Review: Rodeo Rebel by Debra Kayn

July 23, 2012 by Mandi 7 Comments

Rodeo Rebel by Debra Kayn June 15, 2012 Contemporary Romance Entangled Publishing Reviewed by Mandi When I read a romance book, I enjoy feeling fictionally attracted to the hero. In this book we have Cole. Now Cole lost his wife to a reckless accident years ago and he is now raising his seven year old daughter by himself. He is extremely cautious, as his wife’s death haunts him still. Which is why, when he becomes the new owner of Turner Grain Corporation, he decides to end the Continue Reading

June 13, 2012 by Mandi 3 Comments

Tempting The Best Man by J Lynn (Gamble Brothers #1) Contemporary Romance E book April 23, 2012 Entangled Publishing Reviewed by Tori Tempting The Best Man is a cute, albeit predictable, romantic novella about childhood friends whose attraction for one another is off the charts but miscommunication and a serious case of open mouth, insert foot from the hero has them fighting their way to their happily ever after. Madison (Maddie) has loved Chase Gamble ever since she discovered Continue Reading
