Smexy’s Top Ten – September 16

Do you believe in reincarnation? Trez will. #TheChosen #HEA #trueloveisworththepain

— J.R. Ward (@JRWard1) September 10, 2016

51jn9mn7xl-_sy346_9. Last year The Shadows by JR Ward came out, and I read it (because BDB is my crack and no one will ever convince me otherwise) and Ward killed the heroine at the end of the book. And I raged and ranted (if u click that link, my spoiler tag is broken at the  moment on the blog – fyi). Because when a heroine dies it’s kind of hard to have that HEA THAT IS NECESSARY IN ROMANCE BOOKS. *ahem*

And now JR Ward has tweeted the above.

I love the BDB. I don’t love reincarnation. I don’t really care about Trez. I WANT DIRTY LAYLA AND XCOR SEX OMG I’M EXCITED. So that is my answer – do I believe in reincarnation? I WANT DIRTY XCOR SEX.

*ahem*

Damn it.

8. I can’t remember if we talked about the fact that Kresley Cole is going to write a M/M book, Shadow’s Seduction. If we have, I’m sorry – but I’m excited. Blurb:

A night of debauchery
Prince Mirceo Daciano and his new friend Caspion the Tracker comb the streets of Dacia, drunkenly seeking out pleasures of the flesh. In what should have been a typical night, they coax a bevy of nymphs to bed. To impress their females, the demon and the vampire kiss on a dare.

Changes them forever
Once they finally break away from their soul-searing kiss, they find themselves alone—and shaken. Had they imagined their explosive chemistry? Obstacles—ranging from a death sentence, to exile on a war-torn dimension—threaten to destroy their lives, much less the vulnerable promise in that one kiss.

How long can they resist the fire that blazes between them?
Even if Mirceo can accept Caspion as his fated mate, the sensual vampire still must convince the stubborn demon that their bond is forever. And any royal Dacian union must receive the blessing of King Lothaire, an unpredictable and savage killer…

front7. Have you seen the table reading for the new Beauty and the Beast movie coming out? It looks good. Okay, so it’s like a 5 second clip, but I have faith!

86954ac113f51e8da590e45157fba7206. I’m going to see Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats tonight!!!! Have you heard of them? I love them. Here is a clip of them playing with the roots on Jimmy Fallon. I have never seem them live and YAY!.

 

tweexy_050216_01-800x4205. This is a pretty cool invention, however – for the clumsy girls – there is a 100% chance I will forget I have the nail polish on my hand, and someone will text me and I’ll go to grab my phone and dump the nail polish all over myself.

But if you are not clumsy, you should totally get this. Link.

41ifwvwc9fl-_sy346_4. Weekend recommendation – if you like fantasy romance, The Bird and the Sword by Amy Harmon is really great. Thanks to Angela for the rec! I’ll be reviewing next week. Loved the heroine and hero, the supporting cast. Just a fun, engaging read.

 

cskt6rrwcaak3fl3. Why do I like this so much??? LOL.


2. My boys think Mountain Dew is the best liquid to ever exist on this planet so I might try this for them.  Super easy! Fat-free! *wink*

1.I’m off to wineries and the concert and fun things! It’s 75 degrees out and I’m actually happy for fall weather (winter – just stay away for awhile). Have a great weekend everyone!

    I also love the BDB. I know the more recent books aren’t as good as the earlier ones, but I just love all the characters so much I will probably keep reading them. And, I too want to see what she does with Xcor and Layla!

    I read The Bird and the Sword recently. It was an enjoyable book that was quite different from Making Faces and her other contemporaries.

    You should try a Mountain Dew cake. It’s a whole lot of sugary goodness. LOL.

    I considered myself a BDB fan. I have every book in all formats, paper, hard, e-book & audio. But that BS book she wrote that I refuse to say by name almost made me burn them all. I was SO pissed! And NOW she’s going to try and fix it. She better bring it correctly. I’m going to read The Chosen, but only so I know what to expect in the next book. I don’t like either Xcor or Layla and don’t even care they have a book.

        But I’m totes excited about Kresley Cole writing a m/m book! I hope that it a “real” m/m and not some fluff piece.
