Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuistonLGBT Contemporary RomanceMay 14, 2019 by St. Martin's Griffin KINDLE * BN * GOODREADS I loved this book. LOVED.

Damn but Canaan was sexy, miles of creamy, pale skin on a lean, compact body. He’d expected some tats or nipple Continue Reading

Saddle Up by A.M. Arthur (Clean Slate Ranch #3)Released: September 17, 2018M/M RomanceCarina Press Reviewed by Mandi Although there are some darker subject matters in this book, I still found it to be a very sweet, and feel good book. And with that being said, I also found it a little hard to get totally engaged - as everything was just too predictable...and well...a little too sweet. (Am I a jaded and bitter reader????) Miles is a sous chef with an obsessive, stalker ex-boyfriend. This Continue Reading
