Smexy’s Top Ten Six
I'm officially three weeks out from my second vaccine! Yay! And my husband just got his second one yesterday. Yay! There is happiness at our house right now. 6. I'm a little pissed that they don't make women's jeans that can fit a whole bottle of wine in the pockets.

I’m both angry and intrigued. pic.twitter.com/knKD94GLKz— Jenny Rae Rappaport (@jennyrae) April 22, 2021 5. Continue Reading

Happy World Book Day! The flare of a cigarette and the handsome Irishman in the shadows--I wanted it all, but I wasn’t allowed to want. Ronan was danger and beauty, murder and mercy. To me, he was a mystery, but he was also the only man who ever knew me. In that single stolen moment before I had to give my life to someone else, I imagined myself with him, the man with scars and bruises. The one who knew what hurting meant far more than I did at that time. Instead I was given to Continue Reading

We want to make sure if you’re following along with us and haven’t read these books yet, that you be made aware of anything that may trigger you. Melanie: That Continue Reading
Audio Review: Sweet Talk by Cara Bastone
Sweet Talk by Cara BastoneApril 22, 2021 by Audible OriginalsContemporary Reviewed by Melinda Sweet Talk is the follow up to Call Me Maybe, which was also an Audible Original by Cara Bastone. I’m not sure if there are other series that have been originals like this in the romance area because I haven’t followed many beyond Alyssa Cole and now Bastone. I know Alyssa has mentioned The A.I Who Love Me will be a series as well but I can’t think of any others. As an audible Continue Reading

For Lexi Dean, burning down her kitchen was disaster enough. Agreeing to move in next door with her totally off-limits best friend, Matt Freeman, until her house is livable again? Utter madness. They’ve always been close, but this is ridiculous. If she’s not bumping into him at the refrigerator, he’s at the front door giving her date the third degree. And slipping between his borrowed sheets? That’s about as distracting as listening to his shower run, because suddenly all she can think Continue Reading

Now, Daniel’s relieved to have a job at a small college in Holiday, Northern Michigan, but he’s a city boy through and through, and it’s clear that this small town is one more Continue Reading
