Smexy’s June TBR

June 1, 2020 by Angela 5 Comments

Angela- I have so many books on my TBR list this month I've been itching to read. 2020 might be a shit year so far, but some great books have been released. A Dark and Stormy Knight (Victorian Rebels #7) by Kerrigan Byrne 6/2 Historical Romance- Kerrigan Byrne is self-publishing Carlton Morley's book and I am so thankful. I don't think this series would have been complete without it. Dragon Unleashed (Fallen Empire #2) by Grace Draven 6/9 Fantasy Romance- I have been a long time Grace Continue Reading

Sheena’s Six Smexy Reasons to Read, The Business of Lovers by Eric Jerome Dickey

May 7, 2020 by Sheena Leave a Comment

Eric Jerome Dickey has been in my upper echelon of favorite of fave authors for more than a decade. His style is so accessible and provocative, for me, his novels always feel like a master class in romantic realism. The stories aren’t traditionally romantic, each couple’s journey to HEA is never easily linear boy meets girl- obvious misunderstanding- realization of faults to love declarations. In an EJD tale, characters live in bold and sometimes cold, color. More often than not, their choices Continue Reading

Smexy’s April TBR

April 2, 2020 by Angela 2 Comments

Angela- March felt like it was approximately 7,000 days long and I'm glad it's over. Here's to April and hopefully some great reading. Hunting Fiends for the Ill-Equipped (The Guild Codex: Demonized #3) by Annette Marie 4/3 Urban Fantasy- I've enjoyed this author since discovering her through the KU program. This is a fun series and I'm looking forward to getting caught up with Robin and Zylas. Will they figure out how to free him from the pact they made? Will they take things to the next Continue Reading

Top Ten Reasons to Read: Love Hard by Nalini Singh

March 11, 2020 by Sheena 7 Comments

Jacob Esera, star rugby player and young single father, has worked hard to create a joyous life for his six-year-old daughter. After the death of his childhood sweetheart soon after their daughter’s birth, all Jake wants is safety and stability. No risks. No wild chances. And especially no Juliet Nelisi, former classmate, scandal magnet, and a woman who is a thorn in his side. As a lonely teenager, Juliet embraced her bad-girl reputation as a shield against loneliness and rejection. Years Continue Reading

Sheena’s TBR Takedown!- An Hysterical Historical by Suzanne Enoch

February 20, 2020 by Sheena 1 Comment

Anyone who promises wild and wicked Highland romance has snagged me hook, line and sinker. Scot Under the Covers by Suzanne Enoch not only has a DAMN, YES MA'AM! cover, the blurb hinted at a plot ripe with tricks and games of intrigue. Will they, won't they!?- Of course they will- this is HEA through and through, but the journey to the happy ending was a riot. And I guess I'll start there. I didn't expect this novel to be as freaking funny as it was! Historical romances often have lots of winks Continue Reading

Sheena’s Ranty Read: The Kissing Game by Marie Harte

February 6, 2020 by Sheena 3 Comments

The Kissing Game by Marie Harte Feb 4th I do not like this, Sam-I-Am, I do not like this in a bed or on the couch or on a train. I do not like this anywhere. Oy! This was no bueno. I blame the blurb. It made me promises. It sold me a bill of goods and I curled up with this novel, ready to COLLECT! Hard working heroine with entrepreneurial spirit and a romantic at heart- Why, yes, tell me more. Tall, dark & handsome buttoned up, emotionally blocked hero who secretly pines after Continue Reading

Sheena’s Thursday TBR Take-down!

January 23, 2020 by Sheena 1 Comment

New Year, New Same Me!.... Which means, I have 1827261651 books that I am DEFINITELY intending to read right away! That road to hell is paved with what again? Gah! Well, this past week, I got my arse in gear and plucked a newbie to my burgeoning pile to read, Cold Nose, Warm Heart. And, to answer your question, yes. Yes, I did target this book purely because I am freakishly in love with dogs and the most handsomest, best boy on the cover is just adorable and ohhhhhhsocutejustgiveallthekissess- Continue Reading

Sheena’s Most Anticipated Reads for 2020

January 1, 2020 by Kini 1 Comment

I for one am soooo READY to ring in the New Year and (yet again!) embark on my quest to vanquish my TBRs and devour the books I am eagerly anticipating. MY 2020 romance reading forecast promises to be full of contemporary gems, paranormal activity-and I am determined to mark my return, back to my beloved Historicals- my all time fav genre, which took a back seat for me in 2019. My eyeballs are READY: Road to Salvation, Trilogy by Jamie Begley (Last Riders)- Book 1, Gavin's Song is out Continue Reading

Sheena’s Favorites of 2019

December 30, 2019 by Sheena 3 Comments

Whoa, I didn't read nearly as much as I anticipated this year. I read my staple releases, and came across a few new authors and that was kind of...it. I actually did more RE-reading than anything! Maybe 2019 was just meant to be the year of nostalgia for me. Topping my re-read list? Waking the Dragon, Vale of Stars #1 by Juliette Lewis. It is quite possibly my favorite book to read these days! Liar's Game by Eric Jerome Dickey was also a repeat read and is one of my fav if not thee- fav all Continue Reading

Smexy’s November TBR

November 4, 2019 by Angela 2 Comments

Angela- November is when I try to begin to close out my reading year, wrap up any ARC reviews I missed in the last few months AND finally get to all those books in my TBR stack that I've been eyeing all year. This month has quite a few great releases that I'm looking forward to and I'm also planning to sneak in some books that I've had on my Kindle for awhile. Slaying Monsters for the Feeble (The Guild Codex: Demonized Book 2) by Annette Marie 11/1- I've enjoyed this author since stumbling Continue Reading
