10. Your Friday cute. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FDTMRK7-24#t=127 9. The new Fifty Shades of Grey trailer released last night. I'm a little more excited about the first one - it was more fun because of all the make-out scenes. I'm more excited to just have a girls night out and have some drinks and be giggly throughout the movie. Speaking of Fifty Shades of Grey.... 8. As Smexy is an #OfficialFifty blog, I get fun presents and other stuff (not sure what the Continue Reading

Review: Sleigh Ride by Heidi Cullinan
Sleigh Ride by Heidi Cullinan (Minnesota Christmas #2) M/M Romance November 11, 2014 Samhain Reviewed by Helyce Favorite Quote: “The geek was strong in this one.” From Goodreads: Arthur Anderson doesn’t want anything to do with love and romance, and he certainly doesn’t want to play Santa in his mother’s library fundraising scheme. He knows full well what she really wants is to hook him up with the town’s lanky, prissy librarian. It’s clear Gabriel Higgins doesn’t want him, Continue Reading

Review: Intrusion by Charlotte Stein
Intrusion by Charlotte Stein (Under the Skin #1) Released: November 4, 2014 Erotic Contemporary Avon Reviewed by Mandi In my opinion, Charlotte Stein is the queen of the awkward erotic romance story. She loves pitting two very awkward people together, who clumsily find their way to climax (and love) with each other. Intrusion is no different, but it has a definite dark twist to it. Beth lives next door to an extremely recluse man. When her dog goes missing, she gets up the courage to Continue Reading
New Post: Charlotte Stein Loves a Tortured Hero
Charlotte Stein has a new book out titled, Intrusion. It features a very tortured hero and his journey to finding romance and peace. I'll be posting a review later this morning. First, Charlotte is stopping by to tell us about her love of the tortured hero. I've always loved a tortured hero. I think it started with various small things like Superman realizing being human is absolutely shit and Indiana Jones getting possessed by racist magic, but it definitely reached its culmination with one Continue Reading
