Cover Alert! Lover Reborn by JR Ward

July 2, 2011 by Mandi 37 Comments

    Ummmm…hmmmmmm.   I don’t like it. I think it is because Tohr’s face is so pronounced. That is not what Tohr looks like in my head.   This was discovered on Goodreads yesterday, but now I don’t see it so I’m not sure what that means. JR Ward’s message boards have been offline for some time now. Does anyone know if they are coming back? I know there were some hardcore “Cellies” on the boards – has some new secret board been started? How am I suppose to Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten May 20th

May 20, 2011 by Mandi 39 Comments

10. My Week – Isn’t this the coolest picture of a bubble popping? It makes me smile. Otherwise all I have seen this week is rain. Rain. And wait – rain. And worms. Hubs made me plant some flowers. Pretty sure I touched a worm. I’ll be over it soon. I have indoor hands. They are not equipped for nature.   9. Lothaire News! This is a week old, but I didn’t have a chance to talk about it last week. Lothaire’s heroine will be – Elizabeth Pierce. We don’t know a lot about her. She might be Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–April 15th

April 15, 2011 by Mandi 65 Comments

10. My week – Stay far away from this post. *Sprays Lysol* My kids brought home pink eye over the weekend,,,yay. So as a family we started applying eye drops. And of course the kids eyes cleared up in like five minutes. Hubs took the eye drops and then had an allergic reaction to the medication and woke up the next day with both of his eyes swollen shut. I got cocky (yes, I said “cocky”) after the first day and didn’t keep up with the drops so now I have it again, and it won’t go away. Seriously Continue Reading

Let’s Talk Lover Unleashed

April 6, 2011 by Mandi 50 Comments

****** Spoilers****** If you have not read Lover Unleashed and you do not want to know what happens in this book, please don’t read further!   Alright y’all. Lover Unleashed. What are we thinking? We’ve had a good ten days to let it sink in. Have you had enough time to soak in the brothers? Did you get your V fix? Does anyone look at a spoon differently these days? 1. Payne/Manny. I didn’t love their relationship. I wanted Payne to be more like Xhex, and not so much like Layla. I Continue Reading

Review: Lover Unleashed by J.R. Ward

March 24, 2011 by Mandi 39 Comments

Lover Unleashed by J.R. Ward (Black Dagger Brotherhood #9 Paranormal Romance March 29, 2011 Hardcover NAL Reviewed by Mandi Payne, twin sister of Vishous, is cut from the same dark, warrior cloth as her brother: A fighter by nature, and a maverick when it comes to the traditional role of Chosen females, there is no place for her on the Far Side… and no role for her on the front lines of the war, either. When she suffers a paralyzing injury, human surgeon Dr. Manuel Manello is Continue Reading

A Happily Ever After for Qhuay

March 23, 2011 by Mandi 154 Comments

It has been a year since we last visited Caldwell and we left on a happy note. Butch and Vishous found true love.   But it is not happily ever after for everyone. It has been quite a distressing year. Cormia has not handled the transition well from leaving The Other Side and has gone insane, creating a prison of toothpicks and peas for her once beloved Phury. Phury: Cormia!!! This isn’t funny! I’m serious, let me out of this cage now! Cormia: WHEEEEE!! I love Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–February 25

February 25, 2011 by Mandi 36 Comments

10. My Week – It’s been quiet – Yay! It snowed *flips mother nature the bird* but otherwise, and uneventful week.   9. The virtual signing is now open for Lover Unleashed. Go HERE to buy your copy (will be shipped on release date of 3/29) The signing closes on 3/24.   8. I found Peeps chapstick in the dollar aisle of Target. This excites me greatly. I went with the strawberry marshmallow cream, but they also had a blue cotton candy.       6. Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–February 18th

February 18, 2011 by Mandi 31 Comments

10. My Week – it is 60 degrees out. I have no complaints! I’m pretending that it is not going to be in the 30’s again next week. Let me have my fantasy that spring is here!   9. I have a new favorite show – Shameless on Showtime. Hubs started watching it and after a few episodes sat me down and made me watch the first one – and I LOVE IT!! It is about an alcoholic single father (William H. Macy) and his six kids and they are very poor. Sounds hilarious, right? LOL – no – it has very Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–November 12th

November 12, 2010 by Mandi 17 Comments

10. My Week – My week has been full of book jitters. I got an unexpected offer of an arc that made me jittery (I’m not saying what it is…I’m a tease), then I registered for the Author’s After Dark Conference (see below) which made me jittery, and then the cover for Lover Unleashed released – JITTERS. All good jitters, but I’m now exhausted! 9. The cover of Lover Unleashed was released this week. I know I already posted, but it needs to be posted again. Now that I have had a few days to soak Continue Reading
