Shadowed Heart by Laura Florand (Amour et Chocolat #5.5) Released: December 3, 2014 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Shadowed Heart continues the story of Luc and Summer, who starred in The Chocolate Heart released last year. I absolutely adore this series by Laura Florand, but The Chocolate Heart is not my favorite book. However, I will read anything Laura Florand writes, so I picked up Shadowed Heart - and I loved it. It starts with Luc and Summer married for a Continue Reading

Review: Escape From the Harem by Daria Charon
Review: Escape From the Harem (Oriental Affairs Book 1) by Daria Charon Erotic Romance Released: November 1, 2014 Self Published Reviewed by Sheena Favorite Quote: "...Marry me at last?" The relief made Kate feel weak at the knees. "So that I can be the mother of your children? If that is the case, I'll probably never find out what a condom is." This is either going to be epic....or horrible....my thoughts as I began this novel. I expected something different, knew it would Continue Reading

Dust of Snow by Indra Vaughn M/M Contemporary Romance Released: December 9, 2014 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi For some reason, when this review request came my way, the blurb really caught my attention: 'T is the season.

Review: Semi-Charmed by Isabel Jordan
Semi-Charmed by Isabel Jordan August 29, 2014 Paranormal Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I guess you could say I was semi-charmed by this book. The hero and heroine were intriguing and engaging, but this book had an overall rushed feel to it and a disappointing resolution with the bad guy. While it's an okay paranormal romance, it could have been better. Harper Hall gets premonitions - visions of crimes as they are happening, which greatly help the police in some cases. She Continue Reading

Review: A Gentleman in the Street by Alisha Rai
A Gentleman in the Street by Alisha Rai Released: November 24, 2014 Erotic Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: "When do you sleep?" She glanced deliberately at her watch. "Sometime between fucking and ruling the world." This is one dirty book, with a very strong heroine and a grumpy, more serious hero. Thumbs up to this combination! Akira Mori is very, very rich. She owns nightclubs and bars and is a brilliant business woman. She is known for her orgy Continue Reading
