Fix Her Up by Tessa BaileyHot and Hammered #1Contemporary RomanceJune 11, 2019 by AvonARC KINDLE * BN * GOODREADS I can't remember why I set this aside a few weeks ago.

Angela’s Tuesday Thoughts- The TBR Update
Hosed (Happy Cat #1) by Pippa Grant and Lili Vanlente- I love Pippa Grant, but I haven't read anything she's written with a writing partner. This one started out slow for me, but the more I read, the more I got into it. It has the signature Pippa Grant zaniness with a sweet romance. There is a small town feel to it complete with nosy neighbors gossiping and everyone knowing everything about everyone's business. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Final Grade- B- America's Continue Reading

Surprise! If you are anything like me, you were hit with exciting news of an unexpected, surprise Tessa Bailey release! And when Bailey releases, I read. And that is just that on that people!

Captivated by Tessa Bailey and Eve Dangerfield Released: June 11, 2018 Erotic Romance Self Publishe Reviewed by Mandi I've loved Tessa Bailey since her first book - and I just discovered Eve Dangerfield last year and I really like her voice. So when I saw these two were pairing up to write a book, I squeaked. And when I read this line: "Unzip my pants and greet your new keeper.” I giggled!!! Oh dirty, dirty fun. I love the set-up in this one. Autumn is from Australia and moves to Continue Reading

Review: Follow by Tessa Bailey
Follow by Tessa Bailey Released: October 30, 2017 Erotic Contemporary Self Published Reviewed by Mandi In general, I love Tessa Bailey books. This is her first venture into self pubbing and I say, give it all to me! But this was a time that one of her books did not work for me. The quick set-up - Teresa is our heroine and growing up her dad was involved with mobsters/crime lord - he eventually gets out of that life and heads west with his family, but unfortunately for Teresa, now as Continue Reading
