Hello there! I’m Bree, one half of the paranormal romance writing duo of Moira Rogers, and I’m on a wild and crazy blog tour talking about dangerous men and the women who love them. And I’m not just talking about their heroines—I mean all the women who love them, including those of us who read & write about them!

Review: Archer’s Lady by Moira Rogers
Archer’s Lady (Bloodhound #3) by Moira Rogers Paranormal Romance July 3, 2012 Samhain Publishing Reviewed by Tori Favorite Quote: “All he had to do was flash that wicked smile and nuns would break sacred vows for a chance to grasp at the pleasure it promised.“ I love Moira Rogers’s steampunk/ pnr series-The Bloodhounds. An incredibly sexy, action packed story that will keep you glued to your e-reader. An enchanting mix of old and new sets the stage as we engage with our two Continue Reading
Review: Carolina Home by Virginia Kantra
Carolina Home by Virginia Kantra (Dare Island #1) Contemporary Romance July 3, 2012 Berkley Reviewed by Helyce Carolina home is the type of contemporary romance I really enjoy. It was easy to fall into it, the characters and the story playing like a movie in my head. It had just the right amount of angst without going overboard. While the individual character’s situations were not new, Ms. Kantra did a great job of pulling me into these people’s lives. Matt Fletcher grew up on Dare Continue Reading
Review: The Darkest Day By Britt Bury
The Darkest Day by Britt Bury (Immortal Heat #1) Paranormal Romance July 3, 2012 Forever Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “I do no’ need you anyhow.” “Oh no?” She looked down his body. “That thing tenting your pants just called you a liar.” The Darkest Day is the start of a new paranormal series I’m pretty excited about. My initial thought while reading is how it has a Kresley Cole vibe to it. I like to call it, ‘Immortals After Dark – Lite.’ Not quite as violent, not quite as Continue Reading

Megan Hart Kills Mandi Yet Again
Is it adultery when it’s not a secret? When there are rules? Can you be unfaithful to someone who’s given his permission? A while ago I read my first Megan Hart book, Broken and it is one of the best books I’ve read. I then went on to read Dirty and Stranger (I must space her books out, they take so much out of me) and I enjoyed them. Dirty was really, really good. Stranger – I didn’t like Sam as much, but Jack completely stole my heart. By chance, I had Tempted in print Continue Reading
