Review: Not Until You (A Loving You on the Edge Novel) by Roni Loren Released: November 4, 2014 Erotic Romance/BDSM Berkley Trade Reviewed by Sheena Favorite Quote: "Right. Yes. You're the Big Bad Wolf, and I'm innocent Little Red Riding Hood. Got it. Let me go find my freaking picnic basket." Roni Loren is a new-to-me author. I didn't know what to expect and I went into this novel expecting a sexy little romp and enough "dark, dominant alpha dude awakens sexuality of wide eyed Continue Reading
Review: Off the Map by Tamara Morgan
Off the Map by Tamara Morgan (Winter Rescue #2) Released: November 6, 2014 Contemporary Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi This book starts with Scott and Carrie recently broken up. They have that, "I hate you but I still lust after you and I secretly probably love you but let's focus on the hate right now" vibe going on, and the author makes it really cute. Carrie and Scott both work for the same search and rescue squad - Carrie is a helicopter pilot and Scott trains the rescue Continue Reading
Review: Intrusion by Charlotte Stein
Intrusion by Charlotte Stein (Under the Skin #1) Released: November 4, 2014 Erotic Contemporary Avon Reviewed by Mandi In my opinion, Charlotte Stein is the queen of the awkward erotic romance story. She loves pitting two very awkward people together, who clumsily find their way to climax (and love) with each other. Intrusion is no different, but it has a definite dark twist to it. Beth lives next door to an extremely recluse man. When her dog goes missing, she gets up the courage to Continue Reading
New Post: Charlotte Stein Loves a Tortured Hero
Charlotte Stein has a new book out titled, Intrusion. It features a very tortured hero and his journey to finding romance and peace. I'll be posting a review later this morning. First, Charlotte is stopping by to tell us about her love of the tortured hero. I've always loved a tortured hero. I think it started with various small things like Superman realizing being human is absolutely shit and Indiana Jones getting possessed by racist magic, but it definitely reached its culmination with one Continue Reading

Review: Dreamer’s Pool by Juliet Marillier
Dreamer's Pool by Juliet Marillier (Blackthorn and Grim #1) Fantasy Released: November 4, 2014 Roc Reviewed by Mandi Dreamer's Pool is the start of a new fantasy series and it captivated me. With an amazing and complex heroine, and rich supporting characters, it's a little dark, a little twisted, and a lot of fun. Blurb: In exchange for help escaping her long and wrongful imprisonment, embittered magical healer Blackthorn has vowed to set aside her bid for vengeance against the man Continue Reading
Black Moon Draw Blog Tour
Blurb: A reader gets sucked into the book she’s reading and is trapped, unless she convinces the hero of the story to send her home. Just her luck - the book is unfinished, and its sexy hero is far more alpha male than she’s prepared to handle. What Naia doesn’t know: the story – and its hero – have been expecting her for quite some time, even though she has no idea what she’s doing there. Naia must learn quickly how to navigate the dangerous, magical world of Black Moon Draw and find a Continue Reading
Smex Scene Sunday-Retro Style
As you all know, I occasionally like to visit older romance novels and share the sexy, funny scenes that decorate our lovers path to happily ever after. After reading so many erotic and racy romances, it's nice to take a step back and reminiscence with the romances of old that used far more subtly and nuance to describe the lust, anger, heartbreak, and joy that these couples felt as they fight their way to or from love. Candace Camp is a favorite historical author of mine. There Continue Reading
