Review: Sanctuary Island by Lily Everett

August 14, 2013 by Mandi 4 Comments

Sanctuary Island by Lily Everett Released: July 30, 2013 Contemporary Romance St. Martins Reviewed by Mandi Maybe I’m a sucker for a cover with horses on it, but when I received this book for review, even though I had heard it’s more on the women’s fic side, I still wanted to read it. And yes there are wild horses, and a sexy handyman and a heroine who is looking to reunite with her mother. There was a really nice combination of drama, small town life, romance and humor. When Continue Reading

Review: Entity Series by Cat Devon

August 5, 2013 by admin 1 Comment

Cat Devon’s Entity series is a light paranormal romance series, one where each book has its own couple, story, and one could be read as a stand-alone without reading the previous novel. In this series there are vampires, demons, witches, and more. Set in Chicago in a vampire run neighborhood, the dynamics of their particular group was one of the parts I liked best about this series. Intrigued by something on the lighter and happier side, I decided to dive in and I found the first two books to Continue Reading

Review: Fifth Grave Past The Light by Darynda Jones

July 10, 2013 by Tori 12 Comments

Fifth Grave Past The Light (Charley Davidson #5) by Darynda Jones Urban Fantasy/Mystery July 9, 2013 St. Martins Press Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “I’m a virgin. But this is an old shirt.” Charley Davidson is large and in charge in the fifth installment of Darynda Jones hilariously dark and sexy urban fantasy series. More sex (YEA!!!), more jokes, and even more ghosts will keep you glued to the pages as Charley tries to solve not one but two mysteries, follow a cheater, deal with the Continue Reading

Review: Bound by Him by Red Garnier

June 18, 2013 by Mandi 17 Comments

Bound by Him by Red Garnier (The Billionaire’s Club #3) Erotic Novella June 18, 2013 St. Martin’s Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “Say it, Whitney. Say that every inch of you burns for me. Screams for me. Say that your body is my home. Welcome me the fuck home.” What a fun, cracky, erotic read this novella is. This is the first I’ve read of this series (all are stand alones) but I’m definitely going to go back and read the first two. My only complaint about this book is that I Continue Reading

Review: Sweet Revenge by Zoe Archer

June 11, 2013 by admin 1 Comment

Sweet Revenge by Zoe Archer (Nemesis Unlimited #1) Historical Romance June 4, 2013 St. Martin's Reviewed by May Favorite Quote: “Better not turn down the lights.” He said, staring at her, “because I’ve waited too long to see you like this.” “I’ve wanted to be seen.” The year is 1886 and the story begins with us watching as Jack Dalton; an inmate at Dunmoor Prison for five years makes a glorious escape. Having heard that the man he attempted to murder is nearby, he can think of Continue Reading

Review: The Earl is Mine by Kieran Kramer

April 10, 2013 by admin 4 Comments

The Earl is Mine by Kieran Kramer (House of Brady #2) February 26, 2013 Historical Romance St. Martins Reviewed by May  He was the legitimate heir to the Marquess of Brady. But he wasn’t his son. And he was doomed to a lifetime of lies. Gregory Sherwood, Lord Westdale has a dark secret one that he promised his mother on her deathbed that he’d never speak of or reveal.

Review: When She Said I Do by Celeste Bradley

March 12, 2013 by Tori 13 Comments

When She Said I Do (Worthington #1) by Celeste Bradley Historical Romance January 29, 2013 St Martins Press Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “I exist here in this moment. I exist for her.“ I love retellings of the classic fairy tale, Beauty and the Beast. Especially when we are presented with such a deliciously naughty beast and a curious heroine who is more than able to tame him. Miss Calliope Worthington is travelling with her parents and brother when their carriage overturns Continue Reading

February 27, 2013 by Helyce 14 Comments

Review: Drive me Wild by Christine Warren

December 10, 2012 by Mandi Leave a Comment

Drive me Wild by Christine Warren (The Others #7) November 27, 2012 Paranormal Romance St. Martins Reviewed by Mandi Earlier this year I read the previous book, On the Prowl which featured a marriage of convenience and a super alpha tiger shifter. I couldn’t resist and I ended up enjoying it. Drive me Wild features Rafael de Santos, the head of The Others council, and a very arrogant, alpha jaguar shifter. If you like snarly, possessive, arrogant alphas, this one will work well Continue Reading

Review: Death and the Girl Next Door by Darynda Jones

October 5, 2012 by Tori 4 Comments

Death And The Girl Next Door (Darklight #1) by Darynda Jones Paranormal Romance/YA October 2, 2012 St. Martin's press Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “Turtles are not the innocent, harmless creatures everyone thinks they are. Mark my words.” Darynda Jones hooked me solid with her adult Charley Davidson series, so I jumped quickly and trampled a few friends when offered a chance to read her debut YA series-Death And The Girl Next Door. I’m not proud of my actions, but I can live Continue Reading
