Kini’s Friday Kisses

May 3, 2019 by Kini 2 Comments

I can hardly believe that it is already May, but here we are. May is Mental Health Awareness Month and I would be a liar and didn’t take a moment and say that I have been really struggling with my own mental health lately. It is very difficult to dig out from the lies that depressive/anxious brains like to lie about. But I am trying. Lots of things feel like impossible tasks and I’ve taken comfort in reading a lot more recently. I know that this is just a rough patch and there is light at the Continue Reading

Excerpt: Devil on Your Shoulder by Elyssa Patrick

April 3, 2019 by Kini 2 Comments

Elyssa Patrick's new rom-com, The Devil on Your Shoulder, releases tomorrow 4/4. I can not wait to read it. Elyssa was kind enough to share an excerpt with us. No one expects a meet-hate at a wedding. But when an arrogant playboy steals her seat, a plus-sized wallflower finds herself engaged in a battle of insults . . . and a kissing duel. Kisses are one thing, but love is a declaration of war. Nora prepared herself for the worst. She was going to let this man—this man she didn’t Continue Reading

Christmas Novella Round-up

December 24, 2013 by Mandi 1 Comment

I read a bunch of Christmas novellas recently so I thought I’d put them all into one big post. Just a Holiday Fling by Tiffany Marie Blurb: Samantha isn’t feeling very festive as she heads back to her childhood hometown for Christmas—but being alone, homeless, and verging on jobless can do that to a woman. She has no interest in participating in the town Christmas celebrations and would rather just crawl into bed until the holidays are over. Determined to get back into the Christmas spirit, Continue Reading

Review: One Hit Wonder by Elyssa Patrick

December 18, 2012 by Mandi 5 Comments

One Hit Wonder by Elyssa Patrick Contemporary Novella December 2012 Self Published Reviewed by Mandi Favorite Quote: “You know what they say, Timmons. All work and no play makes for no time for margaritas.” “I don’t think that’s the correct saying.” Damon Suarez had a hit song years ago, but hasn’t released another hit song since. He is kind of okay with that, as he is still reaping the income of this one hit song presently. It’s still a hit and even has the dance move, The Continue Reading

Interview with Elyssa Patrick and Giveaway

September 11, 2012 by Mandi 46 Comments

  I have been Twitter friends with Elyssa for quite some time now and she is always gives me the best romance book recommendations. Now with her first book out, I’ve invited her to Smexy to chat. Who is Elyssa Patrick. Give us the low down. I’m a former high school English teacher, and I love anything chocolate, Richard Armitage (no surprise there!), and cupcakes. As you can see, I have a horrible sweet tooth. I know this sounds cliché—but I’ve always wanted to write ever since I was Continue Reading
