February 3, 2015 by Mandi 5 Comments

Flirting with Disaster by Victoria Dahl (Jackson: Girl's Night Out #2) Released: January 27, 2015 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi I'm enjoying this series by Victoria Dahl, and you can't go wrong with a sexy, over-worked, 42 year old hero who is a US marshal. Tom has been assigned to the mountains near Jackson Hole Wyoming, as guard detail for a local judge. This judge has been sent death threats by a rogue survivalist. The judge lives in a secluded part of the woods, Continue Reading

Guest Post: Victoria Dahl Celebrates Galentine’s Day

February 2, 2015 by Mandi 11 Comments

Galentine’s Day is a fictional day created by Leslie Knope (aka Amy Poheler, star of Parks and Rec). It’s a day to celebrate the girlfriends in your life and I thought this day goes perfectly with Victoria Dahl’s new book, Flirting with Disaster.   I only watch Parks and Rec occasionally, so I’m incredibly grateful to Mandi for clueing me in to Leslie’s “Galentine’s Day.” It’s a chance to celebrate before Valentine’s Day with your gal friends, and I think it’s a spectacular Continue Reading

Review: Looking For Trouble by Victoria Dahl

July 29, 2014 by Mandi 6 Comments

Looking For Trouble by Victoria Dahl (Girls' Night Out #1) Releases: July 29, 2014 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi When I recently read the novella that kicks off this new series, I really hoped I'd enjoy the first full length book as much as I enjoyed the previous story. And hooray, I did! This book has a sexy hero, a sexy heroine and just the right amount of conflict. Twenty-Five years ago, Sophie's mother and Alex's dad ran away together, only to disappear and Continue Reading

Hero: Jake Davis. Firefighter. Likes to jog without a shirt. Heroine: Lauren Foster. Librarian. Likes to look at Jake running without a shirt.   She unfastened the last buttons of his shirt and pushed it open, her hands spreading over his chest and down his ribs. “God, you’re gorgeous.” He said her name, shaking his head in denial, but he couldn’t say more than that. His heart beat so hard that it shook his chest and made it hard to breathe. She ducked her head and licked one of Continue Reading

September 19, 2013 by Mandi 56 Comments

Tough to tame, but not too tough to love… Charlie Allington is supposed to be on the fast track to the top—a small-town girl who was making it big in her career. Instead, she's reeling from a scandal that's pretty much burned all her bridges. Now, out of options, she needs a place to lick her wounds and figure out her future. True, working at a ski resort in rugged Jackson Hole, Wyoming, isn't her dream job. But if there's one perk to coming back, it's a certain sexy hometown boy who knows how Continue Reading

Review: Close Enough to Touch by Victoria Dahl

August 28, 2012 by Mandi 5 Comments

Close Enough to Touch by Victoria Dahl August 28, 2012 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi I read this book and then let it sit for a few days before I wrote the review because I just couldn’t figure out my feelings for this one. Victoria Dahl gives us a very prickly heroine. Grace is a make-up artist from Hollywood. After getting fired while on set of a movie, and then having a very bad break up with a boyfriend that literally leaves her penniless, she gets in the Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–June 8th.

June 8, 2012 by Mandi 62 Comments

10. Fair warning for Top Ten today. It is full of mantitty and ‘arm porn’, and more mantitty. For example, dirty Joe Manganiello…   (I love how everyone is staring at his crotch. Channing looks impressed. LOL)Yeah, we have a lot to talk about. First let’s get to some book news.   The 2012 Lori Foster Reader/Author Get Together has come and gone. I love this weekend. One of the most casual, laid back conferences you can go to. I got to meet tons of bloggers and had a great Continue Reading
