Bare It All by Lori Foster (Love Undercover #2) Romantic Suspense April 30, 2013 Harlequin Reviewed by Helyce Favorite quote: “I’ll fill you up, Alice. And I swear you’ll enjoy it.” I loved this book! I wasn’t supposed to have read it because it took me out of the order I was reading in, in an effort to stay on top of my review books; but once I started it, I could not put it down. It’s usually like that when I read a Lori Foster book and I just had to continue because I would never Continue Reading

Review: A Hometown Boy by Janice Kay Johnson
A Hometown Boy by Janice Kay Johnson Contemporary Romance January 2, 2013 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi It’s unfortunate this book is being released right after the tragedy in Newtown, CT because there are many similarities. In this book, a mentally disturbed man, steals his mother’s guns and goes on a shooting spree, killing seven adults and himself in the small town he lives in. I feel like I have to note this, because some may find this upsetting. I should also note, this Continue Reading
Review: The Other Side of Us by Sarah Mayberry
The Other Side of Us by Sarah Mayberry Contemporary Romance January 2, 2013 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi I wanted to read this book for a few reasons. First it’s by Sarah Mayberry and I really enjoy her voice. But I also heard it had a cranky, reclusive heroine. Usually we only get cranky heroes so this really intrigued me. Mackenzie has good reasons to be in a bad mood too. About a year ago, while driving to a production site (she is a tv producer) she had a very bad accident, Continue Reading

So when I found out that the author planned to release a novella giving us Chris’s story, I was overjoyed. Chris may have come off as laid back in his too long hair, Continue Reading
