Smexy’s Top Ten – February 26th

February 26, 2016 by Mandi 16 Comments

10590598_829401390520428_8468486139693487290_n10. A stomach bug has rolled through our house for the past week. It hit everyone – my eldest son was the last to get it and hopefully by tomorrow it’s gone. GONE I SAY. The above will be me tonight. It’s all I have left.

25687508 (1)9.Book Rec!! In the Middle of Somewhere by Roan Parrish. This is currently on sale for $.99 and I LOVED the blurb and then I mentioned it on Twitter and many rec’d it so I’ve started it. I’m about halfway through but feel confident enough to recommend it to y’all. Quick set up: One hero is a tattooed, very new college english professor from Philly, who gets his first job in nowhere Michigan. Accidentally hits a dog (dog is OKAY don’t worry!) and recluse second hero comes out of the woods to help him. This hero is huge, awkward (omg so awkward) wears flannel, (ADOPTS INJURED DOG) and lives in a log cabin. *bites lip* Great chemistry, so sexy, love them both.  (If the second half sucks, sorry!! But I can’t imagine it will) A second book by this author is releasing soon.   Kindle l Nook

 

HML_header.18. Hey – so Sophia from Fiction Vixen and I put out a monthly newsletter. We have revamped it for 2016! Our new shiny letter will now release the first Tuesday of every month (so Tues 3/1 will be the next one) and it will be heavy on recommedations. Recs of the books we loved in the previous month. Audio book recs. Kindle Unlimited recs. Books that may turn into movies soon recs. Upcoming books we can’t wait to read. Our newsletter is called, How Many Licks Does It Take to Get to the Center of a Naughty Romance Novel (or hero) – OR just How Many Licks.  You can sign up here.

7. They are remaking Dirty Dancing – which makes me kind of sad. The original Dirty Dancing is just…..sooooo goooooood. Do we really need to remake it?? They just cast Johnny.

I mean….maybe I’ll sneak a peek at the new show later this year. *wink* See more of Colt Prattes here.

 

CcE7xlrWwAI8K176. Tom Hardy is in a new show on FX called, Taboo. At some point he walks around nakey apparently!! You can see the full trailer here. Looks…interesting.

CcEyM-WUEAAuljD5. OH HI JAMIE. Seriously, that man can look into a camera. My god.

4. VERY important question – Which Butt are you. Take the quiz here. I am an Orlando Bloom butt.

enhanced-15409-1455924391-93. Painting your nails is SO 2015. 2016 – Year of the hairy nail. Yes, I have a beard obsession. Yes, I love a hairy chest. Maybe this is one way I can express my love of hair, on my own body. Could I glue curly hairy chest hair to my fingernails? No?

12799105_1694127880864199_1666385903420136622_n2. Sarina Bowen has a new book coming out with Berkley this September!! Rookie Move. I love this author’s voice – so excited for this one.

Hockey player Leo Trevi has spent the last six years trying to do two things: get over the girl who broke his heart, and succeed in the NHL. But on the first day he’s called up to the newly franchised Brooklyn Bruisers, Leo gets checked on both sides, first by the team’s coach—who has a long simmering grudge, and then by the Bruisers’ sexy, icy publicist—his former girlfriend Georgia Worthington.
 
Saying goodbye to Leo was one of the hardest things Georgia ever had to do—and saying hello again isn’t much easier. Georgia is determined to keep their relationship strictly professional, but when a press conference microphone catches Leo declaring his feelings for her, things get really personal, really fast…. Kindle

1.This weekend I’m going to try Specimen by Shay Savage – it’s getting good buzz and it’s on Kindle Unlimited. I’ll report back! Have a great Friday and a smexy weekend!!

    Sorry to hear the plague has hit your house, Mandi.
    Thanks for the In The Middle of Somewhere rec. I’m due for a good M/M. New Sarina Bowen book? YES. Love her. And, apparently I’m a Chris Hemsworth butt gal. I’ll take that.

    Hope you all feel better soon! I just followed the link to In the Middle of Somewhere. I haven’t read this genre & thought it sounded like a good one to start with.

    Really? Am I really the only one who thought those nails were just wrong? My first thought was “how the hell am I going to the bathroom with these???”
    EEEW!
