The Angel by Tiffany Reisz (The Original Sinners #2) Erotic BDSM Romance Releases: September 25, 2012 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi My Favorite Quote: “My confession begins,” Father S said, “as the confessions of many men begin – with three words.” “Father, forgive me?” Michael hazarded a guess. Father S sighed. “I met Eleanor.” A few months ago I read The Siren and at that point it was my favorite book so far this year. I found the writing to be so engaging and refreshing. The Continue Reading
Review: Gold Digger by Aleksandr Voinov
Gold Digger by Aleksandr Voinov M/M Contemporary, Novella Released: September 17, 2012 Riptide Reviewed by Mandi I’m a huge fan of Aleksandr Voinov’s Special Forces series. Huge, as in the two heroes, Dan and Vadim are two of my favorite guys. It is super emotional, angsty, violent, and just pure torture to read. And I love to be tortured when I read. So when I heard the author was coming out with a novella featuring Vadim’s son, I became very excited. Nikolai Krasnorada works Continue Reading
Joint Review: Seven Nights in a Rogue’s Bed by Anna Campbell
Seven Nights in a Rogue's Bed by Anna Campbell (Sons of Sin #1) Historical Romance Releases: September 25, 2012 Forever Reviewed by May and Mandi He was like a mistreated dog, swift to snarl to fend off a kick. Oh, Jonas... Her heart squeezed with agonizing compassion. He was so wounded, she wasn’t sure anyone could heal him. Certainly not a chance-met girl who dallied a mere week. A girl who betrayed him with every breath. Her decisions had become so vilely complicated. The Continue Reading
Review: The Space Between Us by Megan Hart
The Space Between Us by Megan Hart Erotic Contemporary Releases: September 25, 2012 Harlequin Reviewed by Mandi I think Megan Hart is an excellent erotic story teller. I have read Broken, Dirty, Tempted and Stranger and pretty much loved each book. She challenges me as a reader and makes me stretch my boundaries. Her endings are rocky HEA’s at best (although that is one of the things I love about her books), and the ending of The Space Between Us to me is very sad. The prologue Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–September 21st
10. Someone knit this for me immediately. I need this in the morning. No one is allowed to talk to me if you can’t see my face. This will be the new rule. My head will slowly emerge as I drink my coffee. With a straw. (Thanks Molly!) 9. I’ve been blabbing all over Twitter about this book, but one last time I need to recommend it to everyone. Seriously one of the best Alpha-hole, stubborn heroes I have read. Yet…while Tack is a jerk, he has this soft spot for the heroine and by the Continue Reading
