Angela: This has been the longest week ever and I am so glad it’s the weekend. Not sure what I’m going to read, I have so many ARCs. Maybe The Once and Future Witches by Alix E Harrow? Kini: I am working my way through Mistletoe & Mr. Right. It is very sweet. But Sourcebooks did us dirty by putting a dog on the cover when Rick, in male love interest is the care taker of a surly cat and a hedgehog who wears socks!!!!! I am on a bit of a listening kick. I listened to the audio of You Continue Reading

But we'd love to hear what you are reading! I'm re-reading Paradise Cove by Jenny Holiday. I loved it the first time around. It is a heavy book with themes of grief and sadness. I love grief books though. It is also VERY sexy. Tell us in the comments what you're reading! Continue Reading
Weekly Wrap Up
Here's what happened this week on Smexy. Kini: I reread The Roommate by Rosie Danan last weekend and I really enjoyed it both times I've read it. Maybe one of these days I will write a review for it. This week I read Honey Girl by Morgan Rogers (out Feb 2021). This is not a romance but it does have strong romantic elements. This will be the first of many times that I mention this book and URGE you to put it on your TBR. Angela: It’s been a rough week, which means I’m still Continue Reading
Review: Well Played by Jen DeLuca
I read Well Met when it was released and I liked it but didn’t love it. I do LOVE the Ren Faire setting in this series. Plus they take place in Maryland, where I live and I love to see how it is depicted. I was intrigued by the secondary characters from Well Met so I was excited to see that Stacey was getting her story told in Well Played (out 9/22). I mistakenly thought Stacey was going to be paired with Mitch, so shame on me for jumping to conclusions. Once I refreshed myself on the Continue Reading
