Review originally posted on September 7, 2017, by Mandi at Smexy. Sanctuary by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Beards and Bondage #2)Released: August 29, 2017Erotic BDSMSelf Published I quite enjoyed Haven, book one in this series earlier this year (both are stand alones) and Sanctuary was a hit for me as well. As in Haven, this book starts with quite a suspenseful scene. Our heroine, Liz, an attorney, who goes home one day after a long day of work, to find a man in her apartment, Continue Reading

Review: Rustler Mountain by Maisey Yates
Rustler Mountain by Maisey YatesContemporary RomanceFebruary 25, 2025 by Kensington Review by Angela I feel like contemporary romance hasn't really been my thing lately, but I saw a Threads post for this release, and it mentioned things like "bad boy hero who likes the library" and "good girl librarian" and also hinted at sexy library loving and I realized that maybe I should jump back on the contemporary wagon again with this opposites attract, enemies to lovers, small town romance.

Retro Review: Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon
Review originally posted April 26, 2017 by Mandi at Smexy. Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon (Beards & Bondage #1)Released: April 26, 2017BDSMSelf Published How can I pass up a series titled, Beards & Bondage?? What I liked most about this story is while it is erotic, and there is a beard, and there is some bondage, their courtship is presented so well. And the trauma and recovery the heroine goes through in this book felt so realistic. Claudia is from the city but goes Continue Reading
