Wedding at Cardwell Ranch – B.J. Daniels

Wedding at Cardwell Ranch – B.J. Daniels

*I received a free ARC of Wedding at Cardwell Ranch from Harlequin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Romance, mystery, suspense and some hot cowboy in an amazing community, Wedding at Cardwell Ranch is a pleasant read. My Wedding at Cardwell Ranch review: Finally back to work after her husband’s possible death, Allie is quite happy to be organizing a wedding at Cardwell ranch, if only to be out of her cabin and the strange things that are happening there. Of course, the fact that her precious daughter Natalie has lots of other kids to play with helps as well. Strange happenings continue to occur in her cabin, from finding lighted candles in the middle of the night, […]

Review: A SEAL’s Fantasy – Tawny Weber

Review: A SEAL’s Fantasy – Tawny Weber

*I received a free ARC of A SEAL’s Fantasy from Harlequin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Fast-paced romance filled with danger and hotness, A SEAL’s Fantasy made me hold on to my couch for the duration of this wild ride.  My A SEAL’s Fantasy review: Dominic is used to being the go-to man for advice, and when he finds himself hurt and not able to go on a dangerous mission, he’s not exactly feeling good about it. A SEAL’s Fantasy quickly shows Dominic that he can’t always decide how, why or when a mission needs to be taken care of, so when he has to find Lara to make sure a South-American drug-lord can’t get his hands […]

Review: Dash of Peril – Lori Foster

Review: Dash of Peril – Lori Foster

*I received a free ARC of Dash of Peril from Harlequin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Dash of Peril is a hot and exciting contemporary romance, filled with both danger, fun and steamy scenes. My Dash of Peril review: Dash of Peril is delightful because there is both a lot of excitement, and a lot of romance. And I just love stories where one of the protagonists is doing whatever they can to not fall in love, because the longing is so awesome. And when they do finally fall, it’s delicious to read about. Margo is a cop, and she’s very good at her job. This means that she doesn’t often have the time to be with […]

Review: Shadowmaster – Susan Krinard

Review: Shadowmaster – Susan Krinard

*I received a free ARC of Shadowmaster from Harlequin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Shadowmaster is an exciting and well executed dystopian / paranormal story where the female lead is a dhampir who knows how to fight dirty! My Shadowmaster review: Phoenix has been part of a more or less secret government organization since she was a child. She is neither totally human, nor totally vampire, thus those around her see her as different, and maybe a threat. She has one good friend at the Aegis, though, but when she’s sent on an important mission, she has to go on her own. She needs to find Drakon in the outskirts of the city, and she has to […]

Review: Bare Essentials – Jill Shalvis, Leslie Kelly

Review: Bare Essentials – Jill Shalvis, Leslie Kelly

*I received a free ARC of Bare Essentials from Harlequin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Bare Essentials contains two pretty long novellas, the first one is Naughty but Nice by Jill Shalvis, and as with most of her books, I was drawn into the story from the very start, both by the quirky but hot characters, the sexual tension and the humor. Between Cassie and Tag, there is first nothing at all, apart maybe some kind of awareness, before they both decide the other couldn’t be more wrong for them if they tried. And that made the story so humorous. Cassie had it a little tough growing up in the small town, though, especially because her mother […]

Review: Nailed – Christine d’Abo

*I received a free ARC of nailed from Cosmo Red Hot Reads (Harlequin) via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Nailed is a quick and very hot read!

Review: Her Valentine Fantasy – Nancy Warren

Review: Her Valentine Fantasy – Nancy Warren

*I received a free ARC of Her Valentine Fantasy from Cosmo Red Hot Reads from Harlequin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Her Valentine Fantasy is a whirlwind romance, hot, sexy and a little unexpected. The humor is ever-present, but not overwhelming, and I loved the swift and breathless way the characters fell for each other. A look, chemistry, a sexy way to explain the dessert and voilà, recipe for a beautiful valentine fantasy ready to be served. Jessica and Sam’s first meeting in Her Valentine Fantasy is pretty unconventional! Sam is the owner at Benedict, where Jessica is out on a first date with a banker – a very boring banker. Sam, however, who is waiting tables […]

Review: Misbehaving – Tiffany Reisz

Review: Misbehaving – Tiffany Reisz

*I received a free ARC of Misbehaving from Harlequin / Cosmo Red Hot Reads via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* The imprint for Misbehaving is spot on! What a hot story, filled with fun characters, a lot of laughters, even more sex and I am almost reverting to Norwegian rather than writing in English right now *grins* Bea is a very confident, beautiful, spunky woman! She has a blog where she reviews sex-toys and books about sex. When her sister is getting married, she’s supposed to have a week off work, but because her colleague is sick, she needs to bring a book for review with her. That book is called THE MANUAL and it has twenty-five sex […]

Review: Christmas at Cardwell Ranch (Cardwell Ranch #4) – B. J. Daniels

Review: Christmas at Cardwell Ranch (Cardwell Ranch #4) – B. J. Daniels

*I recieved a free ARC of Christmas at Cardwell Ranch from Harelquin via Netgalley in exchange of an honest review* Christmas at Cardwell Ranch is a contemporary romance with some supsense / thriller elements as well. I thought the thriller part of the story was very well done. On Tag’s first night back in Montana, he sees a waitress leaving the bar, without a coat, and she seems drunk. She gets into a car and disappears into the night. And from that moment on, she’s missing. One of her female colleagues go missing as well, and those who could possibly shed some light on these disappearances are unwilling to share. Tag and Lily try to solve the mystery themselves, but […]
