A DNF Wrap-Up
May and Mandi have had a few DNF’s (Did Not Finish) recently. Here is a recap: Lucky Penny by Catherine Anderson Reviewed by May The heroine is a single ‘mom’ (she cares for her orphaned niece), and apparently she would be unable to find work unless she pretends she is married and her husband out searching for gold in Colorado. I would have to think orphaned children were more common back then, and I just can’t figure out how taking care of your niece would be such a social Continue Reading

Love is a Battlefield by Tamara Morgan (Games of Love #1) Contemporary Romance February 14, 2012 Samhain Reviewed by May Favorite Quote: Drinking beer, playing with their balls and pitching tents.

Smex Scene Sunday
As his hands roamed over Cavin’s back, his hips, his firm arse, Benjamin reveled in the blunt honesty of their kiss. The stark unbridled lust, the voracious need. Nothing tempered. Nothing held back.

Their bodies twined together, the reward for surviving the fight. A series of deathly earthquakes have shaken the Continue Reading
