April 10, 2018 by Helyce

The Theory of Second Best by J. Bengtsson Cake #2 NA Contemporary Romance January 9, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Helyce After finishing the first book in this series, I immediately picked up book two.  Kyle is the younger brother of Jake, featured in book one.

But the Continue Reading

Review: Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone

April 5, 2018 by Mandi

Cheeky Royal by Nana Malone (Royals Undercover #1) Released: April 2, 2018 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I'm all about the royals these days and when I read this blurb, what stood out to me is the heroine is in charge of guarding the royals (aka the hero). This is a really cute, super sexy story and I definitely recommend it. But let me also tell you that it's part one of a two-book series and it ends in a cliffhanger. The second book, Cheeky King, comes out Continue Reading

Review: Cake: A Love Story by J. Bengtsson

March 30, 2018 by Helyce

Cake: A Love Story by J. Bengtsson Cake, #1 NA Contemporary Romance May 14, 2016 Self Published Audible Reviewed by Helyce A few weeks ago, faced with another tedious and mundane task at work, I opened up Audible to search for something that would make the task at hand a bit more bearable.  Audible had just emailed me a romance spotlight list and Cake: A Love Story was second on the list.  The short blurb about a rockstar with a tragic past was all I needed to know before I clicked Continue Reading
