Review: Burned by a Kiss by Tina Leonard
Burned by a Kiss by Tina Leonard (Star Canyon #1) Released: May 3, 2016 Contemporary Romance Reviewed by Mandi The start of a new series, the blurb features Emma and Santana as our hero and heroine, but honestly, other characters stole the spotlight.

Review: Midnight Quest by Lisa Marie Rice
Midnight Quest by Lisa Marie Rice (Men of Midnight #4.5) Released: April 19, 2016 Novella Self Published Reviewed by Mandi This is a follow-up novella to Midnight Vengeance, so the couple has already had their HEA. I've read Midnight Vengeance, but I don't remember it, and this still read really easy as a stand-alone. I love Lisa Marie Rice books. They always have super alpha, over-protective heroes who are obsessively in love with the heroine. Over the top in love - it's fun. Jacko Continue Reading

Review: Earth Bound by Emma Barry and Genevieve Turner
Earth Bound by Emma Barry and Genevieve Turner (Fly Me to the Moon #3) Released: May 11, 2016 Historical Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi I absolutely loved this book. It is very much a stand alone, although I've enjoyed all the books in this series set in the 1960's. This book gives us two, very intelligent protagonists - a hero who falls in love with a heroine for her brain (and the fact she is wild in bed) and science. I love it. Charlie is an extremely smart woman who Continue Reading
Review: Love, Alabama by Susan Sands
Love, Alabama by Susan Sands Series: Alabama, #2 Romance Contemporary April 13, 2016 Tule Publishing Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “We’re all broken just a little” Emma Laroux, former Miss Alabama and current pageantry coach, is pretty content with her life. Who cares if she is cursed when it comes to dating men? She has her home, health, business, and family for comfort. When her sister lands her own reality cooking show, Emma helps out and finds herself at odds with the show’s Continue Reading
Review: The Rule Book by Jennifer Blackwood
The Rule Book by Jennifer Blackwood (The Rule Breakers #1) Released: May 9, 2016 Contemporary Romance Entangled Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: "Screw the rule book. Maybe he could even smack your ass with it." What a cute book! Lainey Taylor is fresh out of college and starting her first job as a second-assistant to Brogan Starr, CEO of Starr Media - a company that manages social media platforms for the rich and famous. Besides the mundane errands of getting coffee and filing, she Continue Reading
Review: Love and Learn by Ava Blackstone
Love and Learn by Ava Blackstone Released: April 2016 Contemporary Romance Reviewed by Mandi Navy SEAL Tyler MacKinnon is that guy. The one who pitches a no-hitter in the big game even though he skipped practice. The one who can get any girl into bed with a funny story and a grin. But when Ty is hit by an IED, his charmed life is blown straight to hell. Though his leg heals, that naive certainty that the universe is on his side is gone forever. And it’s like everyone knows it.
