Review: Sharp by Alex Hughes
Sharp by Alex Hughes (Mindspace Investigation #2) April 2, 2013 Futuristic Suspense Roc Reviewed by Mandi Going by the number of Goodreads and Amazon reviews for this series, I say – this is the best series you are not reading.

Our hero, Adam is a very high-level telepath who Continue Reading
Review: Love Irresistibly by Julie James
Love Irresistibly by Julie James (FBI/US Attorney #4) April 2, 2013 Contemporary Romance Berkley Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “Thank God I’m not wearing the red high heels today,” she said. “In two minutes you’ll be wearing nothing,” he said in a low voice. Well, then. Julie James puts out one book a year and the wait is torturous but I’d wait even longer if it means she will continue to put consistent high quality romance books. She writes smart, mature Continue Reading

Let’s Discuss: Lover at Last by J.R. Ward
Please note!! There are spoilers below. If you do not want to be spoiled, I wrote a spoiler-free review of Lover at Last for USA Today. JR Ward has been torturing us for years with Blay and Qhuinn. While this is my favorite series, I also tend to not love and squee over every book. Ward tends to have 1,245 different storylines and POVs in each book, sometimes distracting away from the main H/H. However – while yes we get lots of different side stories, I was very happy with Blay and Continue Reading
Review: High Risk by Vivian Arend
High Risk by Vivian Arend (Adrenaline #1) March 5, 2013 Contemporary Romance Berkley Reviewed by Mandi When I first heard about this book, there were a few things that drew me to it. First, it’s about a team of people who climb mountains and rescue people. I love this premise. Also, the hero only has one arm. You can’t expect me to pass up a hero like that. And finally, it’s set in Banff which is in Alberta Canada. Awhile ago, the talk show Regis and Kelly did their show from Continue Reading
Review: The Conquest of Lady Cassandra by Madeline Hunter
The Conquest of Lady Cassandra by Madeline Hunter (Fairbourne Quartet #2) Historical Romance February 26, 2013 Jove Reviewed by May “There is little more disappointing than a man who looks like he will know what he is about, then one discovers he does not understand the subtleties. It would be such a waste if after all of Ambury’s practice, he were such a man.” Cassandra is a fiercely independent woman with an overbearing jerk of a brother. Not only does he want to dictate who she Continue Reading
