I started writing ONE DAY TO FALL because I wanted to write a heroine who didn’t conform. Not to society, which doesn’t favour women, or to her family, who favours society’s expectations of women. We tend to call these heroines unlikeable, but I like the idea of them being grumpy. They’re too busy fighting the patriarchy to smile, thank you very much. I like the idea of them being contrary even more. Even to the expectations of the reader… I think these heroines should be celebrated, so here Continue Reading
Smexy’s Mid-Year Update: What we’ve read, what we’ve loved, what’s up next
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

Angela’s Monday Mornings
What I read this week: Archangel's Prophecy by Nalini Singh Guild Hunter #11 Urban Fantasy October 30, 2018 by Berkley I'm not sure how to review this book without giving away spoilers. Although I'm sure by now, most romance readers aware that Elena and Raphael are once again in the spotlight and have heard the ruckus over the cliffhanger ending. Archangel's Prophecy starts out slow and easy, readers are thrown right back into a familiar world. I always enjoy those first few chapters Continue Reading

This was such a lovely romance. The hero, Eli Dawes, Earl of Rivers, rides off to war a cocky, young rake and returns home many years later a broken, wounded man. He would have rather disappeared and never returned at all, but when his Continue Reading
Seven Smexy Reasons to read Rebel Hard by Nalini Singh!
Rebel Hard by Nalini Singh Hard Play, #2 9/18/2018 TKA Distribution Review by Sheena You guys. Whatever the lung friendly equivalent to smoking a cigarette is, I'm totally doing it. Because how else do you cap off the reading of such a fulfilling, romantic, decadent, beautiful love story? You see, Rebel Hard was destined to be devoured. Not just because Singh is an auto-read, not just because the cover is yum. The blurb folks; the synopsis sang a siren's song to all of my reader senses. Continue Reading
Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts
Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts You know when you read a blurb for a new book and it sounds interesting? Maybe it has an interesting premise--something different from the books you’ve previously read. It might be a new author you haven’t read before, but you’re hopeful that you’ll luck out and find another author you’ll love and can obsess over and anxiously wait for the next book?? Well that didn’t happen to me this week. I chose two books recently that I thought were kind of out there, and I Continue Reading
Review: Ocean Light by Nalini Singh
Ocean Light by Nalini Singh The Trinity #2, Psy-Changeling #17 PNR Berkley June 12, 2018 Favorite Quote: They might only have a fragment of an instant in time, but he’d make that fragment extraordinary. Ocean Light is Bowen Knight's story; the leader of the Human Alliance and one of the leaders in the Trinity Accord. Fans have been expecting his story, straddling the fence and withholding our forgiveness over his past deeds. Bowen had an experimental chip put in that blocks the Psy's Continue Reading
