June 6, 2014 by Mandi 15 Comments

Fall From India Place by Samantha Young (On Dublin Street #4) Released: June 3, 2014 Contemporary Romance Penguin Reviewed by Mandi Oh this book - *bangs head on the table for a few minutes* Okay, I'm ready now.

A best friend. Oooh and now a proud homeowner for the first time.  Down London Road is set in your Continue Reading

May 7, 2013 by Mandi 8 Comments

Down London Road by Samantha Young (On Dublin Street #2) Released: May 7, 2013 Contemporary Romance Penguin Reviewed by Mandi and Tori Mandi: After really enjoying Samantha Young’s adult debut last year, On Dublin Street, I was intrigued to see what she would do in her second book. Down London Road turned out to be a somewhat darker, more intense book than Dublin, and I really like the direction Samantha takes. The author takes great care in getting the reader to know Johanna or Continue Reading
