Smexy’s Top Ten – November 7th
10. The holidays have arrived. Are we ready? 9. What a cute cover for Julie James's May 2015 release! And as she says on her website: SUDDENLY ONE SUMMER is not part of my FBI/U.S. Attorney series. Neither the heroine nor hero is an FBI agent or Assistant U.S. Attorney, and no part of the plot relates to the FBI or federal prosecutors office. So calling it an FBI/U.S. Attorney book would be, well, weird. But Ford, the hero in SUDDENLY ONE SUMMER, first appeared in Love Continue Reading
Review: Romancing the Billionaire by Jessica Clare
Romancing the Billionaire by Jessica Clare (Billionaire Boys Club #5) Released: November 4, 2014 Contemporary Romance Intermix Reviewed by Mandi I was disappointed in this one which bums me out because this series has been a lot of fun. The heroine and I did not get along in this book. Her lack of communication with the hero and her wishy-washy self-made me have a frowny face for most of the book. When Violet's famous archaeologist father passes away, he leaves her an envelope with a Continue Reading
May has the Holiday Blues…
The naughty (and I don’t mean in the smexy way) list of holiday fails has been at an all-time high this year. I am not sure if it is a matter of everything having been done before, authors being uninspired, or other factors but this year I’ve yet to actually recommend a holiday read. Today I want to quickly go over some recent “DNF” holiday reads releasing in 2014. On the Naughty List gets a DNF because after reading two F grade novellas I couldn’t be bothered to continue. Lori Foster’s Continue Reading

Spotlight and Giveaway with Darynda Jones
Blurb: Twelve. Twelve of the deadliest beasts ever forged in the fires of hell have escaped onto our plane, and they want nothing more than to rip out the jugular of Charley Davidson and serve her lifeless, mangled body to Satan for dinner. So there’s that. But Charley has more on her plate than a mob of testy hellhounds. For one thing, her father has disappeared, and the more she retraces his last steps, the more she learns he was conducting an investigation of his own, one that Continue Reading
Smexy’s Top Ten – October 24th
10. This is my problem with buying Halloween Candy. I EAT IT ALL. 9. New Kate Daniels cover!! Magic Shifts comes out August 4, 2015. AUGUST. Damn it. (hardcover too) 8. Nick Jonas keeps doing all of these sexy photo shoots. I'm way too old for Nick Jonas. But then I see this. WHAT? Don't judge me. He can be my New Adult hero fantasy. (see more) 7. A peek into David Gandy's house. We don't get to see his bedroom but we get a glimpse into his Continue Reading
Tori’s Thoughts: Reading and Reviewing for the Public and Oneself
The internet has come alive...in anger...over a recent article penned by a YA author who essentially chronicles her descent into madness (my words) and criminal activity (her words) by admitting to trolling, harassing, and stalking a reviewer who gave her a negative review. I’m not going to get into it as it has been dissected over and over with the skill of a top-notch surgeon by numerous blogs. You can read all about it in the following links from who I feel best summed up the events. Smart Continue Reading
