Review: Risking It All by Tessa Bailey

January 30, 2015 by Mandi 4 Comments

Risking It All by Tessa Bailey (Crossing the Line #1) Contemporary Romance Released: January 27, 2015 Entangled Reviewed by Mandi I was really happy to see that this book is a full length, unlike the category length this author sometimes publishes. We get to spend more time with the hero and heroine and really learn their story. And what a fun story it is. Sera Newsome was a nurse but after her police officer brother was murdered in south Brooklyn, she became a cop in his honor. She Continue Reading

Smex Scene……Monday! With a Giveaway!

January 26, 2015 by Mandi 72 Comments

NYPD detective Seraphia Newsom will avenge her brother’s death at any cost. Even if it means insinuating herself into a rough, Brooklyn street gang and going so far undercover, she’s not sure she’ll be able to get out. Every minute she spends in their midst means the clock ticking down on her life, especially when she overhears something that could get her killed. Bowen Driscol is the heir to a crime enterprise. He never asked for the job, but with his father behind bars, he has no choice but Continue Reading

Review: Exposed by Fate by Tessa Bailey

November 3, 2014 by Sheena 1 Comment

Exposed by Fate by Tessa Bailey (Serve #2) Erotic Contemporary Entangled Brazen Released October 27, 2014 Review by Sheena Blurb:  He’ll train her to lure another man. She’ll lure him instead. When interior designer Eliza Ballas accompanies a friend to New York’s premier BDSM club, she’s taken aback by the sheer want that overruns her body—especially when a sexy Brit assumes Eliza is adept at dark, sensual arts. If she’s going to play, she’ll need an erotic education, and she knows Continue Reading

Review: Baiting the Maid of Honor by Tessa Bailey

June 11, 2014 by Mandi 4 Comments

Baiting the Maid of Honor by Tessa Bailey Released: June 10, 2014 Contemporary Romance Entangled Reviewed by Mandi Oh Tessa Bailey and your dirty talking heroes. SWAT commander Reed does not let us down in his dirty talking abilities. He flies to Colorado to go to his best friend's wedding. He would support his friends through anything, but a wedding isn't his favorite venue, especially when there is a week of "fun" activities planned. But when he sees a bridesmaid the first night Continue Reading

Review: Unfixable by Tessa Bailey

April 23, 2014 by Mandi 9 Comments

Unfixable by Tessa Bailey Released: April 14, 2014 New Adult Entangled Reviewed by Mandi I believe this is Tessa Bailey's first foray into the New Adult genre. I've enjoyed the heck out of her previous books, yet I have to say I had a little bit of a frowny face when I heard this would be a new adult. I was hoping this wouldn't fall into the typical angsty/moody category, but it did. If you are a fan of this author, you will remember Willa from Bailey's first book, Protecting What's Continue Reading

Top Ten Reasons to read Staking His Claim by Tessa Bailey

February 6, 2014 by Mandi 9 Comments

Blurb: NYPD sniper Matt Donovan is in Hell. Instead of driving his best friend’s little sister home from college, he’s stuck with her roommate—a fresh-faced ray-of-sunshine with a body that makes grown men weep. There’s no way he’ll allow himself to taint the little vixen, no matter how hard she tries to tempt him, so he resigns himself to the longest—and hardest—drive of his life. Matt’s obvious attraction suits grad student Lucy Mason just fine. She had no idea her brother’s best friend was Continue Reading

Top Ten Reasons to read Asking for Trouble by Tessa Bailey

November 26, 2013 by Mandi 15 Comments

“I’m going to kill you,” she whispered. He sat up once more, wrapped her hair around his fist and growled. “Fuck me instead.” Dare I say Tessa Bailey is the Queen of the Dirty Talking Hero? Yes, yes I dare! I really enjoyed this one. Brent Mason is an explosive expert (*good shivers*) or as he says “blower-up of shit” and Hayden Winstead is a heiress who plans parties for charities. Their best friends are in love so they are forced to hang out a lot – and they kind of hate each other. But Continue Reading

Brazen Halloween Blog Tour: Tessa Bailey shares an Original Scene

October 16, 2013 by Mandi 2 Comments

The Lovers Unmasked Anthology just released (read my review here) and Tessa Bailey’s contribution continues Derek and Ginger’s story. There full-length book, Protecting What’s His is really sexy and fun. I like these two, especially Derek’s dirty talking ways. Tessa Bailey is visiting Smexy today to give us an original scene featuring Derek and Ginger. Yay! Ginger wrinkled her nose at the stack of take-out menus fanned out on her desk. At three-months pregnant, she’d gotten used to being Continue Reading

Review: Lovers Unmasked Anthology

October 8, 2013 by Mandi 4 Comments

This turned into having coffee every week and building sexual tension. On the night of the company Halloween party, Danielle Continue Reading

Smex Scene Sunday

July 7, 2013 by Mandi 3 Comments

Hero: Hostage Negotiator Daniel Chase. Possessive. A playboy, but secretly full of doubt. Heroine: Kindergarten teacher, Story Brooks. Dumped by her fiance but wooed by a sexy (and verra naughty!) cop. “I’ll set the timer for one minute. You’ll have sixty seconds to prove you’re not just a bunch of talk.” Daniel glanced at the bed behind her. “The things I want to do to you, Story, would take a lot longer than sixty seconds. Your phone’s battery would die well before I finished.” Continue Reading
