Angela’s Tuesday ARC Reviews: Amy Harmon, Hailey Edwards, and Lorraine Heath

August 20, 2019 by Angela 2 Comments

The First Girl Child by Amy HarmonFantasyAugust 20, 2019 by 47NorthARC This was a very different book than the previous fantasy releases I've read by this author. I would say that I was expecting more of a romance based fantasy and what I got was more of an epic fantasy with romance woven in. Still overwhelmingly lovely and beautifully written, just not exactly what I was expecting. The First Girl Child is a story of love, power, greed, selflessness, and honor. When a young battle Continue Reading

The Wallflower Wager by Tessa DareGirl Meets Duke #3Historical RomanceAugust 13, 2019 by AvonARC Tessa Dare is one of my auto-buy historical romance authors. I don't even need to read a blurb or know what the book is about to put it on my TBR list. The Wallflower Wager is the third book in her Girl Meets Duke series and I absolutely adored the two previous installments. Lady Penelope Campion had a softness for animals. Gabe had no softness at all. The Wallflower Wager features Lady Continue Reading

Smexy’s August TBR

August 2, 2019 by Angela 5 Comments

Angela- I have tons of great ARCs for this month and I want to dig in to all of them right now.

This story about two rival dating app creators sounds amazing and I can't wait to read it this week. The Wallflower Wager by Tessa Dare 8/13- If this book is half as cute as the previous book in this series, The Governess Game, I know I'll be in heaven. The First Girl Child by Amy Continue Reading

Smexy’s Mid-Year Update: What we’ve read, what we’ve loved, what’s up next

July 10, 2019 by Angela 11 Comments

Angela: Hey y'all! It's half way into 2019 and Goodreads says I've read 78 books. My goal is 125 this year, so at the moment I'm ahead of schedule. I'm trying to incorporate more books that have been sitting on my TBR shelf into my reading schedule, but I can't seem to stop requesting review ARCs. I have willpower issues, I know this. Lol. As you can see, I'm a genre jumper. I vary rarely read in the same genre two books in a row. I read a ton of fantasy, urban fantasy, science fiction, Continue Reading

Smexy’s June TBR

June 3, 2019 by Angela 1 Comment

Angela- There tons of good books releasing this month! My request button finger must have been on overdrive because I have a ridiculous amount of books on my ARC TBR list this month. Wolf Rain by Nalini Singh 06/04- I've been holding on to this one because it'll be a YEAR before the next release. But we finally get back to the SnowDancer Wolves and I am excited to dive in. Review to come. Give Up the Ghost by Jenn Burke 06/03- I enjoyed the first book in this series SO MUCH. Wes and Continue Reading
