We made it another week folks! Here’s some of the things that I saw floating around the internet this week. 10 . Did y’all see this baking fail? Someone tried to make Peppa Pig and missed the mark just a smidge. It gave me a chuckle though. 9. Penguin Random House posted the cutest video of penguins visiting their warehouse. 8. I saw this tweet of romance themed make-up and it’s wonderful. I wish I had half the amount of creativity as this person. 7. Alyssa Cole announced this Continue Reading
Kini’s Friday Kisses – White Whiskey Bargain by Jodie Slaughter, Don’t You Forget About Me by Mhairi McFarlane, and Lady Luck by Kristen Ashley
I’ve had a slow reading week, my co-worker has been on PTO so I’ve been so busy at work and too tired to read. But it’s Friday so I can read these weekend!

Guest Post by Viola Smart
I was scrolling endlessly on Twitter as I like to do and I saw Viola talking about her upcoming release, The Stage Manager pub date 9/25, that features a f/f pairing. I feel like we don't see enough of that in romance so I reached out to her and invited her to write a post about her book and issues facing LGTBQIA folks. Take it away Viola! One of the central plots of my new release, The Stage Manager, centers around a public school teacher trying to come to terms with her bisexuality while Continue Reading

First in a brand-new series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Lora Leigh and Veronica Chadwick about one man’s pursuit of justice—and unbridled desire. LAW AND ORDER. For as long as Samantha can remember, Hunter—a man as strong as steel, with a heart of gold—has been her hero. It came as no surprise to Samantha when she found out that the ranch-hardened cowboy who always protected her from bullies went on to become the town’s sheriff. What does surprise her is how incredibly hot Continue Reading
Sheena’s Wistfully Wanton Wednesday: Intergalactic Love!
I'm a sucker for Sexy, Fantasy, Sci-Fi Romance. I've been on an Alien Abduction bender for the better part of a year and I don't want to be saved. Send me more. Rec me to oblivion with more and more of this deliciously fun to read trope! I came across Alana Khan's Zar whilst trolling through Kindle Unlimited (a treasure trove!) and the cover screamed: "READ ME BISH!" and I just had to oblige. Then I read the blurb and knew my alien romance spidey senses had steered me right! A new Continue Reading

Annabeth's new novel, Arctic Heat Frozen Hearts #3, releases September 23rd. She stopped by for a Q&A about her the book. Hi! I’m so delighted to be here on one of my all-time favorite blogs with some Q&A about ARCTIC HEAT, my newest release in the Frozen Hearts series set in Alaska. As with the other two books in the series, this one stands alone fine—there’s only the briefest of mentions of the prior books’ couples and no spoilers. This is my opposites-attract, odd couple Continue Reading

If there’s one thing that might get my dad, a retired math teacher, to visit Toronto and have a real conversation with me for the first time in seventeen years, it’s a big nerdy Pi Day party. And hopefully this party—and seeing the tech company I built from nothing—will finally be enough to impress him and make him forgive me for everything I did when I was a teenager. But it’s got to be a really great party. That’s where Sarah Winters comes in. She owns Happy As Pie, a sweet and savory Continue Reading
