Smex Scene Sunday – Olympic Edition

February 16, 2014 by Mandi 7 Comments

Note: This excerpt is from the first story in this bundle, Coming in From the Cold by Sarina Bowen. I have not read the other three stories in this bundle yet. But I really enjoyed this story and for the price, I'd buy the bundle just to read this one. I believe this story releases separately in May.  (I'll be reviewing the entire collection soon!) Hero: Dane 'Danger' Hollister. Olympic alpine skier. A bit reckless. Somewhat a loner due to a deep-seated fear of inheriting a deadly disease his Continue Reading
