Quickie Review – Sugar by Lauren Dane
There wasn’t a lot of drama or hijinks, it was simply a lovely way to catch up with a couple that (most of us) read and enjoyed the first time around.

ARC Review – Holiday With a Twist by Shannon Stacey
I read holiday romances, novella or novel length, because I’m looking for some sexy times with not a lot of drama. And in that respect, this was perfect. – Smut Matters
Review – Fatal Affair by Marie Force
I liked it enough to read one more and see if any of these issues get worked out, but I don’t know if I’ll move on beyond that. – Smut Matters
Review – A Fighting Chance by Shannon Stacey

Review – Controlled Burn by Shannon Stacey
I love Shannon Stacey. Her Kowalski series is one of the series that brought me back to romance several years ago. – Smut Matters

Katherine (Katie) Whitton and Tom Morgan were high-school sweethearts in Dallas, TX until the very end of their senior year when they broke up and […]
