Angel in a Devil's Arms by Julie Anne LongThe Palace of Rogues #2Historical RomanceOctober 29, 2019 by AvonARC I went into this book having already enjoyed the first book in the series, Lady Derring Takes a Lover, and excited to see Angelique Breedlove, the other proprietress of The Grand Palace on the Thames, finally meet a man worthy of her and find her happily ever after.

Smexy’s October TBR

October 2, 2019 by Angela 3 Comments

Angela: I actually have a few more, but by the time this posts I'll have already reviewed them. Look for reviews for The Library of the Unwritten, Aurora Blazing, and The Twisted Ones. They all release on 10/1 and were solid, well written reads. Sharpest Sting by Jennifer Estep 10/8- Ms. Estep is self- publishing her Gin Blanco, Elemental Assassins series now and I'm always afraid I'll miss the next release. This is book #18 and I'm eager to find out what Gin, Owen, the gang are up to now. 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

Kini’s Friday Kisses

July 6, 2018 by Kini Leave a Comment

Happy Friday y’all! Having a holiday mid-week is equal parts awesome and not. I somehow managed to pick up a summer cold, but it has given me some time to catch up on some reads. The First Time at Firelight Falls by Julie Anne Long I am trying to work through my backlogged TBR and get through some review books. I picked up a while ago and finally started it. It had a super cute premise, single mom heroine, principal hero. I made it to 29% and finally DNF’ed. It wasn’t bad, but it felt like Continue Reading

Guest Review: It Started with a Scandal by Julie Anne Long

April 13, 2015 by admin 7 Comments

It Started with a Scandal by Julie Ann Long Historical Romance Released: March 31, 2015 Avon Reviewed by: Prachi Bio: Prachi is many things.  A counselor, a writer, a hopeless optimist and perhaps most significantly a reader. She doesn't know her first book and can't for the life of her pick a favourite. ('Tis a crime! ) She loves Historicals and Contemporaries which are character driven and bereft of werewolves and vampires. Her favourite authors are Sarah Mayberry, Sherry Thomas, Continue Reading
