Stud by Cheryl Brooks (Cat Star Chronicles #8) Paranormal Romance February 7, 2012 Sourcebooks Reviewed by Helyce I have been a fan of Cheryl Brook’s Cat Star Chronicles since I came across a tattered copy of Slave in my local used book store. As I am a huge fan of science fiction, the premise of an alien species of super sexy men with feline qualities and penises with unique, err, characteristics spoke to my nerdy romantic heart. For me, this series is the best of both worlds Continue Reading
Review: Stripped by Tori St. Claire
Stripped by Tori St. Claire Erotic Romantic Suspense January 3, 2011 Penguin Reviewed by Mandi When Tori St. Claire contacted me to request a review of Stripped, I honestly wasn't sure I wanted to read it. I believe this is the first book for St. Claire, although she also is published under the name Claire Ashgrove. The blurb sounded a little over the top — but I was kind of in the mood for that. And, I have to say, this book turned out to be very good. The actual story is maybe not Continue Reading
Review: Assume the Position by T.C. Lee
Assume the Position by T.C. Lee Erotica December 15, 2011 Firefly & Wisp Publishing Reviewed by Mandi I’m not sure why I accepted this review request. Maybe because it was the start of a new year and I was feeling adventurous. The title made me snort, and I liked the idea of an erotic book involving a police officer. I tried to go into this book just expecting crazy sex (which there is) and go with the erotica. But the non-sex scenes are weak. There is a murder storyline which just Continue Reading
Mini Reviews From Jill
Occasional guest reviewer Jill Sorenson is back with some mini reviews for us. Hi Smexy! Thanks for having me back. I thought I’d do a quick wrap-up of some of the f/f and f/f/m stories I’ve read this year. Forbidden by Em Petrova: I requested this anthology on NetGalley because it had an f/f story. Noelle, the heroine, goes to an all-girl party with a murder/mystery theme. There are clues--and scantily clad ladies involved in shocking sex acts--around every corner. Noelle finds Continue Reading
Review: Agony/Ecstasy Anthology
Review: Agony/Ecstasy Anthology December 6, 2011 Erotic Berkley Trade Reviewed by Mandi The Agony/Ecstasy anthology is made up of “11 stories of agonizing pleasure and 10 stories of exquisite pain.” I was hesitant to read this, because I’m not huge on anthologies to begin with and I thought 21 very short stories would not be for me. But I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed them. Many are edgy and all are erotic. I decided to give my brief thoughts on each one. On the Continue Reading

Review: Deliciously Sinful by Lilli Feisty
Deliciously Sinful by Lilli Feisty Erotic Contemporary Romance November 22, 2011 Forever Reviewed by Mandi I’ve read two previous books by Lilli Feisty and I liked them. They had a very sexy, bdsm vibe to them – the kind of books that are very entertaining and fun to chat with about with your friends. Deliciously Sinful though didn’t quite live up to the fun and sexy. After Phoebe’s aunt and uncle died, she inherited the Green Leaf Café, a successful organic restaurant in northern Continue Reading
Review: Wrangled and Tangled by Lorelei James
Wrangled And Tangled (Blacktop Cowboys #3) by Lorelei James Erotic Western Romance Trade Paper Back November 1, 2011 NAL Trade Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “This is why I was against casual Thursdays. There’s always one person who takes it too far.” I’m a huge fan of Ms. James’s Rough Riders series so when I was offered this one for review thought, “Ride’em cowgirl!” Wrangled and Tangled is an erotic western romance that centers around two couples; one starting down the Continue Reading
Review: More Than Meets the Ink by Elle Aycart
More Than Meets The Ink by Elle Aycart Erotic Contemporary June 28, 2011 Ebook Loose ID Reviewed by Helyce Favorite Quote: “Cool place you’ve got here,” Max stated, looking around. She wasn’t sure he meant the place or the cuties that were all smiling back at him. Like it wasn’t enough to have chicks drooling over James, now she had the whole Bowen male panty-creamer clan parading through Rosita’s. She should be charging for entrance. Tate Cooper has a preconceived notion that Continue Reading
