Smexy’s Top Ten–September 20th

September 20, 2013 by Mandi 32 Comments

iphone510. Except I wouldn’t because I’m iPhone obsessed. I feel you. *wink*

theprofessional9. Kresley Cole had a big announcement yesterday. First, she is going to be releasing a new erotic serial this winter called, The Game Maker series. Book one The Professional, is due to release in December. I have to say, I’m very curious about how Cole will write erotic.

In other Cole news, her next IAD couple with be Lanthe and Thronos. I had saw so many people say, who? Thronos has the wings right? And he flies over Lanthe all the time? And she is the sister to the heroine who married that demon king? (I just made it so much more clear! LOL) Are we excited for this or is this series losing some steam? I have mixed feelings.

unattainalbe8. So I’m not a huge fan of authors saying – xxx more likes on Facebook and I’ll give you xxx. Or any variation of that. Just give us whatever and stop asking for promo. But. *guilty eyes* Madeline Sheehan writes motorcycle club crack. (see here) Annnnnnnd. As I write this Friday morning, she is about 700 FB likes shy of releasing the third book, Unattainable.

So! Either go like the darn page so I can have my crack tonight to read – or it’s already been released and go read it! For those horrified by book one (again read here) book two was much tamer.

And yes I just hored myself out for this book. No shame! *wink*

soa7. Speaking of Motorcycle Clubs. You guys. I’ve started watching Sons of Anarchy. First – yes I’ve failed because I’m 5 or 6 seasons behind. Second – yes I MAY have started watching because Charlie Hunnam was cast in 50 shades and I wanted to see what he was all about.

zomg. I’m so obsessed with this show it’s all I do. Read books???? What? No! I must watch SOA. I’m halfway through season 2. It’s tore my heart out already and I’m stressed. I also want to do dirty things with Jax (and Tigs. Don’t judge!!) It’s streaming on Netflix – go watch it if you haven’t!

sleeves6. Tori noticed this book is free today. We think it’s looks dirty. (but we have not read it yet so it might be lame-o) but it’s free so who cares, right? Goodreads l Kindle

strikeback5. I don’t get Cinemax but a friend told me she has been watching Strike Back and she thought I may enjoy the hero, Sullivan Stapleton. So I did a little google image search – and uh – yes please! I then immediately texted May because I know this is her kind of show. She then watched the first episode and texted me a screen shot of a nakey Sullivan butt. So it was a total win all around. There looks to be lots of guns and violence and nakey times. I’m going to check it out as soon as I’m done my glom of SOA.  Anyone else watch it?

 

scotteastwood4. So Clint Eastwood has a HOTTIE son. Who knew? Say hello to Scott Eastwood. Go HERE for more. And HERE.

pug3. I love my pug – and she would totally do this too. LOL

stevenammel2. We can all agree Stephen Amell is hot. But he isn’t the only hottie on the show Arrow:

coltonhaynes1davidramseymanubennett

Colton Haynes, David Ramsey and Manu Bennett. Why did I stop watching this show? Must start again this fall. New season starts October 9th.

1. Maryland State Wine Festival is this weekend. Need I say more? *wink* I’m also going to read Fatal Strike by Shannon McKenna. (and watch more SOA) Have a great weekend!!

    Arrow!!! Yes. Why the hell did you stop watching?! You need back in. There is MUCH hotness and while it got a bit slow mid season it picked back up and I adore. So much sweating and topless men. ;)

    Now, back to my man-butt aka strike back glom.

    I highly recommend Strike Back! SS is naked or having sexy times in virtually every episode. My hubs and I both enjoy this show, him for the gun porn and me for the hot guys. They give great bromance banter as well.

    I stopped watching Arrow as well. Those posters just convinced me to give the show another chance. ;-)

    I’m glad you’re enjoying SOA. Season 2 is tough. And Jax is so sexy.

    The Mr. and I just started watching SoA and we just finished season 1 last night. I’m addicted. I’ve been saying since the show started 6 years ago that I needed to watch it…better late than never.

    Lol my boyfriend watches Strike Back and Arrow as well, perhaps I should join him in that. Looking forward to a new Kresley Cole book, but not the erotica series.

    I just started watching SOA too. I am HOOKED! I’m still on season one but I plan on marathon watching as time permits.

    I thought the same thing about Clint Eastwood’s son – HOTTIE!

    Arrow lost me. But it could be because have the attention span of a gnat.

    So happy your watching SOA. Chibs. I love Chibs.

    I can take or leave the IAD series right now. I want Furie’s story and that’s about it.

    So much hotness in one Smexy Top Ten! ZOMG! I saw something about Scott Eastwood on the news this week. He really is gorgeous.

    I have got to get back with Netflix immediately! Apparently much catching up needs to be done on shows I used to watch faithfully. I’m behind on everything and now there’s more????

    Happy Wine Tasting!

    I binged watched seasons 1 and 2 of Strike Back over 4 days. Jill Shalvis kept posting about it so I had to check it out! I’m now caught up with season 3.

    BTW, Sullivan Stapleton is the star of the next “300” movie coming out in March. Yes, more hot men in loincloths and capes!

    If anyone needed any additional reasons to watch Strike Back, I believe the original six episodes starred Richard Armitage. Sigh.

    Strike Back! It’s such a guilty pleasure. SS is such a loveable man-whore :) and I second watching the first series because there are some delish shots Richard Armitage.

    I’m in for the Kresley Cole erotica, love all her books. Happy that Throntos & Lanthe are next. We are a SOA household and totally understand the obsession!! If you gave up on Arrow, you need to tune in again and yes to Spartacus as well!! Thanks for all the hotness… had no clue Clint’s son was such hottie!!
