Review: Enemies Like You by Annika Martin and Joanna Chambers
Enemies Like You M/M Romantic Suspense Released: May 15, 2017 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I've really enjoyed Annika Martin's (also writes as Carolyn Crane) romantic suspense books. She writes action-filled, black ops type books with super sexy heroes and good banter. This book had a very similar feel, if you are familiar with her work. I was not familiar with Joanna Chambers, so I was happy to try out this book and get a taste of them together. I ended up liking both heroes quite Continue Reading
Review: The Queen and the Cure by Amy Harmon
The Queen and the Cure by Amy Harmon (The Bird and the Sword Chronicles #2) Released: May 9, 2017 Fantasy Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Last year I really enjoyed The Bird and the Sword by Amy Harmon. I think fantasy romance, if done well, can be so captivating and enchanting. I greatly anticipated this book, especially when I learned Kjell (hero's brother from book one) would be the star. And to note, this can be read as a stand alone. That all said, this one lagged for Continue Reading
Review: Open Hearts by Eve Dangerfield
Open Hearts by Eve Dangerfield Released: April 25, 2017 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi This is my first time reading Eve Dangerfield and it won't be my last. Tori reviewed the first book in this series for Smexy and enjoyed it - Open Hearts reads fine as a stand alone although the previous hero and heroine do have a big part in this book. I'm curious to find out just how their HEA unfolded in book one, but I followed along just fine in book two. I'll say Continue Reading

Review: Daddy’s Best Friend by London Hale
Daddy's Best Friend by London Hale (Temperance Falls #1) Released: May 2, 2017 Erotic Novella Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Blurb: Nathan’s always been more than just my dad’s friend.

Review: Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon
Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Beards & Bondage #1) Released: April 26, 2017 BDSM Self Published Reviewed by Mandi How can I pass up a series titled, Beards & Bondage?? What I liked most about this story is while it is erotic, and there is a beard, and there is some bondage, their courtship is presented so well. And the trauma and recovery the heroine goes through in this book felt so realistic. Claudia is from the city but goes on a camping trip with her brother but they run Continue Reading
