The Devi's Doorbell Anthology Released: April 26, 2016 Erotic Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I'm super impressed with this erotic anthology. I'm not a big fan of anthologies, but I couldn't pass up a collection of dirty stories from these authors. They are done well. Almost all feature a heroine who is coming back from a bad divorce or break-up, and trying to find herself again. And each features mention of the devil's doorbell *wink* I highly recommend! In the Garden by Continue Reading
Review: Undecided by Juliana Keyes
Undecided by Juliana Keyes Released: April 4, 2016 New Adult Self Published Reviewed by Kini This author is one of my auto buys after I read her book, Just Once. She has not led me astray. I remain on the fence about new adult books, but I just keep finding really good stories in that genre so I keep reading. This was definitely up there in the top of the genre. Low drama and angst Nora spent her first year at college drinking and partying and living the college dream. This did not Continue Reading

Review: Eidolon by Grace Draven
Eidolon by Grace Draven (Wraith Kings #2) Released: April 18, 2016 Fantasy Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Before I begin, let me stress that you must read book one, Radiance before Eidolon, or you will be lost in this world. If you have yet to read Radiance than you have failed in life, because it's amazing and romantic and a must read. No pressure. Eidolon picks up pretty much where Radiance leaves off. Brishen, a Kai who has greyish skin, odd eyes, fangs for teeth and Continue Reading
Review: Tidal Patterns by Rachelle Paige
Tidal Patterns by Rachelle Paige Released: April 12, 2016 Contemporary/Inspirational Romance Self Published Reviewed by Kini The premise of this books sounded very promising to me. The hero and heroine work together yet get in each other’s way. I’ve read books with this trope before and it can lead to some serious sexual tension, so I was in. Lizzie is the only wedding planner on staff at a resort hotel. Her parents recently passed away and she is living in their beach home. Mark is Continue Reading
Review: Offensive Behavior by Ainslie Paton
Offensive Behavior by Ainslie Paton (Sidelined #1) Released: March 31, 2016 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi When I saw this had a virgin hero, I grabbed it up.

Reid is in a bad place in his life - fired as the CEO of the technology firm he built for basically being an asshole, and now he has turned to drinking. At twenty-eight, his life is a mess. He is a control freak, who couldn't learn to Continue Reading
Review: Chase Me by Laura Florand
Chase Me by Laura Florand (Paris Nights #2) Released: April 5, 2016 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi What an adorable book! If you like great banter, this is a must read. Let me note that the author notes, while writing this book, the terror attacks hit France. While she already had a special ops/terrorist threat in the book, it of course took on a very dark and meaningful tone. With that said, this book is very light and fun - if that makes sense. Chase is a Continue Reading
Review: Crash by Drew Jordan
Crash by Drew Jordan (Crash #1) Released: November 2015 Erotic Thriller Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I don't even know where to begin. I'm horrified and baffled and just....speechless. What the heck did I just read? No, really??? When I got this review request I was intrigued. First, Drew Jordan is the pen name for Erin McCarthy, and I've enjoyed her racing series and some other stuff. I am a sucker for recluse mountain men heroes, and heroes and heroines being trapped in Continue Reading
