November 15, 2016 by Mandi 2 Comments

Someone to Love by Mary Balogh (Westcott #1) Released: November 8, 2016 Historical Romance Signet Reviewed by Mandi Mary Balogh was one of the first romance authors I read, so she holds a special place in my heart.

My most favorite hero of hers is Wulfric - be still my heart. I didn't love her previous Survivor's Club Continue Reading

I spent a lot of time just staring at my bookshelves, contemplating what author has moved me, has given me a book that I have gushed and twirled about with. And as I looked at my shelves, I was overwhelmed by the number of authors that I wanted to single out. Eventually, I decided to start at the beginning – the author Continue Reading

Then Comes Seduction – Mary Balogh

April 21, 2009 by Mandi

It is fun when Mary Balogh has a new series out because they usually all come out within a couple of months of each other. I loved the first book in the series so much, First Comes Marriage, that I just went right on to the second.Baron Montford, Jasper to his friends and well known rake, makes a wager one drunken night - he will seduce and bed Miss Katherine Huxtable. He figured it would be more challenging to seduce an innocent virgin, and he really couldn't think of another wager that he Continue Reading
