Kini’s Most Anticipated Reads 2020 

January 2, 2020 by Kini 1 Comment

First I want to mention that almost all of the books that I am excited about are from traditional publishers because they typically release information about new books several months in advance. If you are indie or self publishing a book, we would love to know about it sooner rather than later so we can get it on our radar! Our request form does not require an ARC. Second, most of these books are from the first half of 2020, with a few from the second half as publishing hasn’t released much Continue Reading

Review: Deep Desires by Charlotte Stein

September 27, 2012 by Mandi 8 Comments

Deep Desires by Charlotte Stein Erotic Contemporary, Novella Released: September 27, 2012 Harper Collins Reviewed by Mandi I think Charlotte Stein has one of the best voices in erotic romance. I always find her heroines so intriguing, so sexually curious, teasing and flirty, and many times they take the reins and show the hero what can be between them. This book is darker though and I really like it. Abbie works as a grocery store clerk and lives in an apartment building called Continue Reading
