Review: Squared Away by Annabeth Albert
Squared Away by Annabeth Albert (Out of Uniform #5) Released: April 16, 2018 Contemporary M/M Romance Carina Press Reviewed by Mandi Guys - I've never read Annabeth Albert. What the heck, self??? I think a publicist reached out about this book asking for a guest post, and when I read the blurb I thought - ooooh, I'll give this one a try. And I ended up really enjoying this author's voice. She gives us Isaiah, biracial, and younger than Mark. And Mark, a Navy SEAL who working out his Continue Reading

Review: Jagged by Lauren Dane
Jagged by Lauren Dane Whiskey Sharp #2 Publication Date: March 27, 2018 Contemporary Romance Harlequin Reviewed by Kini I read and reviewed the first book in this series, Unraveled, earlier this year and didn’t care for it. But I was very curious about Rachel's story. She was an interesting character in the first book. I was cautiously optimistic about this book and thought I would give it a try. I was quickly disappointed. I ended up not getting very far in the book. And here’s Continue Reading
Review: Invitation to the Blues by Roan Parrish
Invitation to the Blues by Roan Parrish (Small Change #2) M/M Romance March 28, 2018 Self-Published Reviewed by Helyce Favorite Quote: “I’m not perfect. I don’t want you out of generosity. Or because I’m some kind of angel or savior. I want you because something inside you vibrates just so with something inside me.” I only recently found Roan Parrish and I’m so glad I did. I read her Middle of Somewhere series and fell in love with the characters there. I didn’t even know she’d Continue Reading

The Viking Queen's Men by Holley Trent (Afótama Legacy #1) Released: October 2014 Paranormal M/F/M Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Is there anything better than a book recommendation via Twitter? I love it when people are enthusiastic about a book. Thanks to Lillie, I saw her telling everyone to read this, and I hopped on that train. I didn't even read the blurb - so imagine my surprise when this turned out to be a male/female/male HEA. And a believable one at that. Let me also say, it Continue Reading
