Kini’s Friday Kisses
It's been a much better reading week for me this week. And lots more kisses were read. I started One Wedding Two Brides by Heidi Betts, it had a cute blurb and I'm a sucker for a fake marriage. It quickly fell apart for me when the heroine was super drunk but the hero still thought it was okay to get married to her. The heroine also referred to another woman as a bitch and floozy. Hard pass. DNF A Duke by Default by Alyssa Cole. I really did not care for this heroine when she was Continue Reading

I like my romance in the present, don’t judge me. But seriously, this series by Barry and Turner is Continue Reading
Review: Earth Bound by Emma Barry and Genevieve Turner
Earth Bound by Emma Barry and Genevieve Turner (Fly Me to the Moon #3) Released: May 11, 2016 Historical Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I absolutely loved this book. It is very much a stand alone, although I've enjoyed all the books in this series set in the 1960's. This book gives us two, very intelligent protagonists - a hero who falls in love with a heroine for her brain (and the fact she is wild in bed) and science. I love it. Charlie is an extremely smart woman who Continue Reading
