The Story Guy by Mary Ann Rivers July 8, 2013 Contemporary Novella LoveSwept Reviewed by Mandi The first person to recommend this book to me was Claudia, but since then I’ve seen a lot of buzz about this book and for good reason. Mary Ann Rivers gives us an emotional, moving, sometimes funny, sometimes sad book about two strangers who start with a simple kiss and end with much, much more. Carrie West is a librarian who is just plain lonely. She has friends, she has great parents Continue Reading
Review: Flirting With Disaster by Ruthie Knox
Flirting With Disaster by Ruthie Knox (Camelot #3) June 10, 2013 Contemporary Romance Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: He picked her up. Picked her up and carried her, as if she were Scarlett O’Hara and he were Rhett Butler, if Rhett had been the kind of guy to go down on Scarlett in a doorway. Which, let’s be honest, he probably was. When I heard the hero in this book had a stutter, I got excited. What is it about a stuttering hero that makes me so giddy? I’m not sure but Continue Reading
Review: Along Came Trouble by Ruthie Knox
Along Came Trouble by Ruthie Knox (Camelot #2) Contemporary Romance Releases: March 11, 2013 Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi I’m a big Ruthie Knox fan, and was anticipating this book as it’s her first full length. Her writing style again impressed me as she writes very smart, witty, sexy characters. I do have complaint about this one though, which I’ll get to in a minute. Ellen lives in her peaceful hometown of Camelot, Ohio, except the peaceful part has gone out the window. Continue Reading
Review and Giveaway: How to Misbehave by Ruthie Knox
How to Misbehave by Ruthie Knox (Camelot #1) January 28, 2013 Contemporary Novella Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi “Honey, somebody’s got to teach you how to misbehave. You’re doing it all wrong.” How much fun is this novella? A whole lotta fun. The hero is nicknamed The Italian Stallion, need I say more? Okay I do, because Tony is an adorable, blue-collared hero who is this big lug of a man who is a little damaged and has fears and…well let me back up and set up the story. Amber Continue Reading
Review: Until There Was You by Jessica Scott
Series: Coming Home #2 Released: October 8, 2012 Military Romance Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi Last year I read and really enjoyed Jessica Scott’s debut, Because of You. I like military romances and this book was right up my ally. Her latest release, Until There Was You didn’t deliver the same emotional impact as her first. It starts out well as we are introduced to Captain Evan Loehr and Captain Claire Montoya. Evan is a West Point grad and does everything by the books. He Continue Reading
Review: Deep Autumn Heat by Elisabeth Barrett
Deep Autumn Heat by Elisabeth Barrett (Star Harbor #1) Contemporary Romance July 9, 2012 Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi For the most part, I’ve had good luck with Loveswept releases. First, they have been at a great price point, $2.99 and I’ve enjoyed Jessica Scott’s Because of You and both of Ruthie Knox’s books. I believe Elisabeth Barrett is a debut author, and I’m always on the lookout for a good contemporary. This one has a good set-up for the series as a whole, but I Continue Reading
