Stepbrother Master by Ava Jackson Released: March 25, 2015 Erotic Romance Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Off the top of my head, I think this is the first "Stepbrother" romance I have read. I honestly thought it would be more taboo-feeling than it turned out to be. Emma's mom is on marriage four and has found the new love of her life on a Montana Ranch. Emma flies out for the wedding, to meet her new stepfather and stepbrother for the first time. Ford works on the ranch for his father Continue Reading
Wicked Wednesday: Step-Sibling Romance
A new feature at Smexy Books! Each hump day we will discuss an erotic topic, or a particular scene from a book and then later in the day we will review an erotic book. I can't guarantee the book we review will be a recommendation (for example, the book reviewed later today is not getting a good grade) but maybe readers can chime in with recommendations. This is our Wednesday plan. If anyone wants a particular erotic book or topic discussed, shoot Mandi an email. (mandi @ smexybooks.com). Continue Reading
Smexy’s Top Ten – April 10th
10. Heh! Shannon Stacey tweet this shirt this week. It made me giggle :) (link) 9. Angela James tweet this week that Hyde and Seek by Layla Frost was a fun book with a Kristen Ashley feel - and she was right! If I was doing an official review I'd probably give it a B- or C+. It's over the top in that the heroine is 20 and the hero is 34, and EVERY guy the heroine meets worships her. The hero works at a custom body shop with several alpha, gorgeous men. (I assume they all get Continue Reading

Silver Bastard by Joanna Wylde releases this coming Tuesday and as part of the blog tour, Smexy Book is partaking in the letter "L" for Lust. That's a good fit, right?

Smexy’s Top Ten – Smexy Turns Six! Feelings and Boners.
I think “Feelings and Boners” should be the new Smexy Books tagline. I tweeted that in regard to a book I was describing on Twitter, and someone said it should be our tagline. It fits, right? We don’t take ourselves all too seriously, but we are passionate about romance books. And feelings. And….boners. We like to have fun. Smexy Books is six years old! Does it feel like it’s been six years? Yes. LOL. What did I do with my life before Smexy Books and Twitter? I really can’t remember. I Continue Reading

DNF Round-Up
Once in a while we gather up our recent "Did Not Finish" (DNF) and share what didn't work for us: Tori And Jericho Burned by M.J. Compton: I was excited to get this book. I liked the premise of undercover rock band FBI agents/werewolves investigating a cult. I’m also a sucker for human/supernatural soul mate pairings. My problem was the romance. So many assumptions and misunderstandings that carry on far into the book. The hero sees his human soul mate and instantly falls for her but gets Continue Reading
