Kini’s Thursday Kisses

May 23, 2019 by Kini 1 Comment

Friday Kisses are being delivered on Thursday today. Tomorrow I will be off celebrating my son as he graduates from college. If you follow me on social media, be prepared for pictures :) Here’s some of the books I read recently. Hold Out: Returning Home #4 by Serena Bell- Overall this book is a decent read. I’ve read several of Bell’s books and I really enjoy her voice. This series has been wonderful and is centered around a group of friends that were previously in the military. But it is Continue Reading

Kini’s Friday Kisses

November 16, 2018 by Kini 2 Comments

Things seem to be turning around for my reading. Either I am in a better mood or books are getting better. I think it is a combo of both though. Regardless, I am excited that I read a better batch of books this past week. Sleepover by Serena Bell- I have enjoyed ever book by Bell that I have read and this was no exception. She typically writes emotional and incredibly sexy romances. As a side note, Bell was part of a group of authors, along with Care McKenna, Charlotte Stein, Amy Jo Continue Reading

Review: Do Over by Serena Bell

February 8, 2018 by Kini 2 Comments

Do Over by Serena Bell Contemporary Romance January 30, 2018 Loveswept Reviewed by Kini Favorite Quote: Jack and I are bound together, and even though in a lot of ways it makes no sense at all, in other ways, it is the most logical thing in the world. I will pretty much always read a book where the main characters had a baby together but aren’t together and now get their second chance at love. I have read several books by Serena Bell and I am never disappointed, this book was no Continue Reading

Review: To Have and to Hold by Serena Bell

August 2, 2016 by Kini Leave a Comment

To Have and to Hold: A Returning Home Novel Publication Date: July 19, 2016 Contemporary Romance, Military Loveswept Reviewed by Kini Blurb The reunion is supposed to be the start of the rest of their lives. But when Trina Levine sees the soldier she promised to love forever, Hunter Cross looks at her like she’s a stranger. The connection is gone, lost in the blank stare of those soulful brown eyes. Hunter remembers his young daughter but not Trina, and he certainly can’t recall why Continue Reading

Review: Still So Hot! by Serena Bell

January 20, 2014 by Mandi Leave a Comment

Still so Hot! by Serena Bell Released: December 17, 2013 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi What struck me initially about this book was the set-up and my dislike of it. Elisa is a dating coach, owning her own business which is still getting off the ground. She not only plays matchmaker but she really spends a lot of time with her clients to point out what they do right and wrong when it comes to love. She finally lands a Hollywood client, an up and coming actress Continue Reading

Review (maybe more of a rant): Yours to Keep by Serena Bell

November 12, 2013 by Mandi 12 Comments

Yours to Keep by Serena Bell Released: November 11, 2013 Contemporary Romance Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi I’m pretty disappointed with this one. The quick set-up is that the hero Ethan is a widower with a teenage son and they don’t have a great relationship. He is a pediatrician and he realizes he needs a spanish tutor for his son. Enter the heroine. Ana is an illegal immigrant from the Dominican Republic. She came over at the age of seven on her father’s work visa, but then her Continue Reading

Review: Heating up the Holidays Anthology

October 29, 2013 by Mandi 5 Comments

Heating up the Holidays Anthology Released: October 28, 2013 Contemporary Romance Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi Play With Me by Lisa Renee Jones I DNF’d this story. Hero is this cold businessman. Heroine is hired as his assistant. I did not like at all. I wish this story wasn’t the first in the anthology. Oh well.   Snowfall by Mary Ann Rivers. Blurb: Jenny Wright can’t get enough of her erotic conversations with someone she knows only as “C.” Flirting online helps Jenny Continue Reading
