Kini’ Friday Kisses- Mini Reviews for books by Kathy Douglass, Kate Meader, Kate Stayman-London, and Sarah Hogle
I'm back with some reviews. Reading and writing about books has been really tough lately. I know this slump is temporary but it still kind of sucks. You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle - I recently felt like I needed a comfort read so I picked this up for a re-read. The book held up on a re-read and it will still be one of my favorite books for the years. On a second read it was a lot easier to see how deeply Nicholas felt for Naomi. Grade: AAmazon l Goodreads Single Mom’s Continue Reading
Guest Post: DOM vs DOMME: Why the Double Standard? By Joey W. Hill
Today we have a post from author Joey W. Hill on Dom vs Domme. Hill's most recent release, At Her Command, is an F/m story and is available now. Ever since I’ve been writing BDSM romance, I’ve noticed I can have two Dominants, in two different stories, who are pretty much equally uncompromising with their respective submissives. They will be expecting their sub to live up to his/her potential, care for themselves. They will also demand a great deal from them in terms of service, Continue Reading
Exclusive Excerpt: High Heat by Annabeth Albert
Hi! I am so excited to be here on one of my favorite blogs with an exclusive excerpt of HIGH HEAT, my sexy new firefighter romance.

The Chicks Gaslighter Album but make it Romance
Melinda and I have been DMing not stop about the new Chicks album since it debuted. We both love it. When Melinda pitched this list to me for a post on Smexy, I couldn't say yes fast enough. In the comments, tell us your favorite song from this album and what romance novel you would match it up with. Huge thank you to Melinda (@MelindaEdits) for this post. The Chicks released their 8th studio album on July 17th and I’ve probably listened to it at least 300 times since then. I can’t Continue Reading
Guest Post: Office Romances by Jayce Ellis
Jayce stopped by to talk about Office Romance. Jayce's new novel, Andre is out today! Office romances are an, in my opinion, uniquely sexy thing. They’re rife with built-in conflict, but the source of that conflict is what makes them tricky to get right. They’re like fated mates: how do you know the characters love each other for themselves and not because Fate has predetermined they’re perfect together (I’ve read an absolute ton of paranormal and Omegaverse in the past three months and I Continue Reading
