Audio Review: The Ferryman by Justin Cronin

August 4, 2023 by Jen 2 Comments

The Ferryman by Justin Cronin

The Ferryman by Justin CroninDystopian Science FictionRandom House AudioMay 2, 2023 Review by Jen A friend recommended The Ferryman by Justin Cronin and while SciFi isn’t my normal go to read, I was intrigued. I’m SO glad I gave this a listen. I’m still thinking about it, working through the twists and turns in my head.  I can’t get into the story too much, because so much of the fun is the surprises that happen towards the end of the book.  The gist is Continue Reading

Review: Dance with the Devil by Kit Rocha

August 17, 2022 by Angela Leave a Comment

Dance with the Devil by Kit RochaMercenary Librarians #3Dystopia/Fantasy RomanceAugust 16, 2022, by TorARC Review by Angela I'm always excited for another Kit Rocha book, but my anticipation for Dani and Rafe's book was sky high. These two gorgeous, yet deadly characters seemed to be engaged in a 'will they or won't they?' dance over the last two books. The Mercenary Librarians is a spin-off of the Beyond series, but if you haven't read the previous series don't worry, Continue Reading

Jen’s Mini-Reviews: Books by Lexi C. Foss, Cate C. Wells, Emma Chase and Elena Armas

Winter's Arrow by Lexi C. Foss

All of these books were really good! I love it when I’m on a reading streak.   First up, I stayed up very late reading Winter’s Arrow by Lexi C. Foss. This is the second book in the X-Clan (Omegaverse universe) series, which is part of the Zombie Year 2099 world. I had no clue what that was until I read this book. Now I am intrigued to read more. Winter’s Arrow can be read as a standalone. I have book three tee’d up for tonight. The world is post apocalypse, where there are shifters Continue Reading

Angela’s Minis- The Devil You Know by Kit Rocha and Breaking Badger by Shelly Laurenston

August 31, 2021 by Angela Leave a Comment

The Devil You Know by Kit RochaMercenary Librarians #2Fantasy/DystopiaAugust 31, 2021, by Tor BooksARC Being a Kit Rocha fangirl, I'm super excited for pretty much any new release by this author duo. The Devil You Know is the second book in the Mercenary Librarians series, and focuses on Maya and Gray. Maya's brain is a weapon, she was trained to carry data, and anything she has seen, heard, read, and experienced is stored in her memory and she literally can not forget. She is also Continue Reading

Melinda’s Minis: Sun of a Beach by Mia Sosa and Abel by Katee Robert

April 16, 2021 by Melinda 5 Comments

Sun of a Beach by Mia SosaContemporaryApril 8, 2021, by AudibleARC This is another audible original, which seems to be more and more of a trend with romance authors. Donovan and Naomi are given an assignment for the swimsuit edition of the magazine they work on and things are interesting since they dislike each other. Naomi began the novella in an ‘I would never date a co-worker’ frame of mind and changed to ‘I am in love’ mindset in the length of 24 hours basically. Donovan changes from Continue Reading

Review: Deal with the Devil by Kit Rocha

July 29, 2020 by Angela 2 Comments

Deal with the Devil by Kit RochaA Mercenary Librarians Novel #1Fantasy/Dystopian RomanceJuly 28, 2020 by Tor BooksARC Favorite Quote: "They don't own you-- that was a lesson I had to learn. They may have made you, but what you do with that will always be your choice. Deal with the Devil is the first book in Kit Rocha's new Mercenary Librarians series. This is also their first book that I've read that wasn't self-published and when I tell you I had to practically beg for a copy, I'm not Continue Reading

Guest Post: Themes in A Paradox of Fates by Rebecca Hefner

March 3, 2020 by Kini 1 Comment

Rebecca's new book, A Paradox of Fates, Sci-Fi Romance, Dystopian Romance is out now. She stopped by to talk about the themes in the book. I always knew I’d write a romance about a theoretical physicist female protagonist one day.  Why? Because to me, a self-proclaimed science dork, there’s nothing sexier than science. It can explain in exact terms why certain parts of our bodies flush with desire when being held in the arms of a lover.  It also leads to a shared understanding Continue Reading

Mandi’s Monday Musings

May 21, 2018 by Mandi 3 Comments

We are going to try a new format at Smexy. Each day, one reviewer will post all the books she has read in the past seven days. Sometimes it may be long reviews like you are used to seeing. Sometimes they will be mini reviews. This gives each reviewer a week to read books, and their own day to talk about them. Mandi is Monday, Tori Tuesday, Sheena Wednesday, Helyce Thursday and Kini Friday. The Top Ten will be coming back this week, and we will still post a wrap-up and Smex Scene over the Continue Reading
