Review: Lady Wild by Maire Claremont
Lady Wild by Maire Claremont Released: May 13, 2013 Historical Novella Self Published Reviewed by Mandi This book isn't only about the hero and heroine falling in love, but dealing with a beloved mother and her slow terminal illness.

Condemned to an isolated country cottage after the death of her idealistic father, Continue Reading

Review: Sharp Love by Ava March
Sharp Love by Ava March (Gambling on Love #2) Historical M/M Released: June 9, 2014 Carina Press Reviewed by Mandi In a rare turn of events, this Ava March book didn't work for me. I am usually captivated by her emotional depth and sultry love stories but I found Sharp Love to be flat and I didn't connect with the characters. William and Jack grew up poor together. Both orphans, they beg, stole and survived on the streets as children. As adults, their life took separate courses. Jack Continue Reading
DNF Round Up
We don't mention every DNF (did not finish) book we read, but sometimes they pile up and we do DNF round ups. Mandi: Catch Me by Katherine Grant: My problem with this book is this - The heroine was mentally abused (at least) with a previous boyfriend. He was controlling, possessive to an extreme (at least that is what I've gained with only reading the first half of the book) In present day, heroine has met her neighbor who is already extremely controlling. In a different book, a Continue Reading
Review: The Billionaire Submissive by Joely Sue Burkhart
The Billionaire Submissive by Joely Sue Burkhart Erotic Contemporary Released: June 17, 2014 Samhain Reviewed by Mandi This book has a really strong start but I had some problems with it after a while ( (pretty sure I've said that in 1,000 reviews). When the author sent me the review request, I couldn't help but be intrigued with a billionaire submissive hero. Donovan Morgan may be wealthy beyond all imagination, but he isn't pleased sexually. He craves to be dominated, but hates going Continue Reading
