Review: At Last by Jill Shalvis

June 25, 2012 by Mandi 3 Comments

At Last by Jill Shalvis (Lucky Harbor #5) Contemporary Romance June 26, 2012 Hachette Reviewed by Mandi At Last is book five in the Lucky Harbor series, but it is really book two of three in this second set of trilogies. While I liked the previous book, I think At Last really brings back that great chemistry and sexual tension that I loved in the original three books of this series. Amy Michaels has lived in Lucky Harbor for about six months. She works as a waitress in the Eat Me Continue Reading

Review: Lucky in Love by Jill Shalvis

May 22, 2012 by Mandi 15 Comments

Lucky in Love by Jill Shalvis (Lucky Harbor #4) May 22, 2012 Contemporary Romance Grand Central Reviewed by Mandi I really enjoy the Lucky Harbor series by Jill Shalvis. The first three books centered around three sisters, each finding love. Now Jill Shalvis turns the attention of the series to three girlfriends, and their quest to help each other in the romance department. We meet Mallory (town good girl), Amy (town bad girl) and Grace (the new one in town), who end up meeting Continue Reading

Time Out by Jill Shalvis Contemporary Romance February 21, 2012 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi In high school, Rainey had a crush on Mark who was a few years older than she was. So much of a crush that one night she decided to go to his place for a surprise strip tease. But to her surprise, when she walked in, Mark was busy with another woman. Embarrassed, Rainey fled and they each went their separate ways. Now, Mark is the head coach of NHL team The Mammoths, while Rainey spends her Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–January 6th

January 6, 2012 by Mandi 41 Comments

10. It’s a new year! Anyone make any resolutions? I think the only resolution I made last year was to have sex with Barrons. Oddly enough, that didn’t come true. Should I continue to wait? 9. Speaking of Barrons, Karen Marie Moning has said she will begin posting teasers for ICED, the first book in her new series featuring Dani, on her Facebook page starting January 17th. (Instead of her newsletters as she did with the Fever series). Last week on Facebook, she also posted a quote from Adam Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–December 2nd

December 2, 2011 by Mandi 23 Comments

10. My Week - I have been under the weather this week with a cold, sore throat, fever thing. Hubs has moved to the couch and has relocated his toothbrush to the guest bathroom. (Gee, germaphobe, much?) But that’s okay because I’ve had company from my friend Nyquil. He is a lovely fellow. A little bitter to start. His personality is tough to swallow..but after you get to know him, he is so soothing. He let’s me sleep all night, although he leaves me feeling a little funky in the morning. I’m Continue Reading

Review: Head Over Heels by Jill Shalvis

November 24, 2011 by Mandi 9 Comments

Head Over Heels by Jill Shalvis (Lucky Harbor #3) Contemporary Romance November 22, 2011 Forever Reviewed  by Mandi The Lucky Harbor series has become one of my favorite contemporary series, and Head Over Heels didn't disappoint. Over the past year, Chloe has moved to the small northern town of Lucky Harbor, has come to know her two half-sisters Tara and Maddie, and together, they have renovated and opened their own bed and breakfast. While Chloe helps out with all the chores Continue Reading

Review: Small Town Christmas Anthology

November 8, 2011 by Tori 12 Comments

Small Town Christmas by Jill Shalvis, Hope Ramsey, and Katie Lane Romantic Contemporary Ebook November 1, 2011 Grand Central Publishing Reviewed by Tori Romantic Christmas stories have to be my secret all time pleasure. Christmas is my favorite holiday with the songs, decorating, and general good natured cheer that seems to to even affect the grumpiest of scrooges. I love reading about those who have given up only to find that wishes do come true for those most deserving. Here we Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–October 28th

October 28, 2011 by Mandi 48 Comments

10. My Week – I’m volunteering in the Kindergarten class today. There are 21 kids in the class, which means there will be 20 kids that are not mine staring at me for three hours. This makes me sweaty.   9. Kim Harrison fans! It has been announced that her Hollows Series is being turned into a television show on the CW network! I couldn’t find a ton of details on it, but it sounds like a done deal. Cool! Also out this week, The Hollows Insider, which has tons of stuff about the series. Continue Reading

Release Day Giveaway: Animal Attraction by Jill Shalvis

October 4, 2011 by Mandi 71 Comments

  Sunshine, Idaho, is a quiet ranching town that provides a perfect refuge for injured animals….and sometimes, people. And veterinarian Dell Connelly suspects there’s a reason his clinic’s uberefficient receptionist has taken shelter here. Jade Bennett couldn't be happier to escape her well-meaning but smothering family and their expectations, not to mention the big-city jungle. There’s nothing like working with animals, having a forlorn, grumpy stray kitten make its home under her Continue Reading
