Mandi’s Favorite Books of 2012
This was my year of the erotic contemporary. I fell in love with some new authors (hello Tiffany Reisz). I fell in love with some new pen names (hello Kit Rocha). I fell in love with already established authors who for some reason I had never read (hello Megan Hart). And I continued my love affair with Ty and Zane (hello Abigail Roux). So let’s get to it, shall we? The Siren and The Angel by Tiffany Reisz. This series pushes my boundaries. I think this author has done a fabulous job Continue Reading
Tori’s Favorite Books of 2012
Choosing a favorite book is like choosing a body part I can’t live without. I need them all to survive. 2012 was a fabulous and turbulent year for bibliophiles and bookworms alike. We watched normally sane authors engage in dubious behavior, we saw FanFic hit the NY best sellers list, and we watched a few new genres appear while old favorites take a turn for the worse. I read over 500 books this year and found myself extremely hard pressed to pick just a few to share as my favorites. As you Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten Favorite Heroes for 2012
Next week we’ll be bringing you our favorite books of 2012 and on New Years day I’ll be posting my favorite Sex Scenes of 2012. (That’s a good way to ring in the new year, yes?) But today, let’s talk about the men of 2012. The men who wooed us, who flaunted their hard abs and big bulges, who whispered dirty things in our ears. Tack (Motorcycle Man by Kristen Ashley). Tack goes from the most arrogant, obnoxious ‘alpha-hole’ to the most lovable (still arrogant) alpha hero that is out there. I. Continue Reading
The Sexy Forearm
“Clearly the sight of a well-muscled forearm incited a woman to utter depravity.” – Goddess of the Hunt by Tessa Dare He swiped a muscled forearm over his sweaty brow and gave her a lethal grin. – Down for the Count by Christine Bell She could see his forearms were sprinkled with light brown hair. For a moment she was captivated by those naked arms. – One Final Step by Stephanie Doyle The sleeves of his shirt were cut off, revealing his corded biceps and roped forearms. – Feeling Hot Continue Reading
Review: Deep Autumn Heat by Elisabeth Barrett
Deep Autumn Heat by Elisabeth Barrett (Star Harbor #1) Contemporary Romance July 9, 2012 Loveswept Reviewed by Mandi For the most part, I’ve had good luck with Loveswept releases. First, they have been at a great price point, $2.99 and I’ve enjoyed Jessica Scott’s Because of You and both of Ruthie Knox’s books. I believe Elisabeth Barrett is a debut author, and I’m always on the lookout for a good contemporary. This one has a good set-up for the series as a whole, but I Continue Reading
