Kini’s Favorite Reads of 2018
2018 was a hard reading year for me. I started out the year with huge goals and it fell apart quickly. I can’t be mad about it though. I read some fantastic books by amazing authors, made new friends in romancelandia and had lots of romance discussions on Twitter and beyond. Here is a round up of my favorite books this year. Spoiler alert, several these authors were on my lists from 2017 and 2016. 2018 was all about fantastic series for me. So many of my favorite books where part of a series. Continue Reading

Sheena’s Wistful/Wanton Wednesday! Twisted Torrid Tortured Trauma! Yes Please!
Happpy Hump Day! 2019 is off to a killer start. I've seen so many resolutions and affirmations to kick ass and take 2019's collective name- that I was inspired to share one of the most ass (and gut) kicking romances I've read in a long while. Those familiar with Tillie Cole know that this author's style is not for the faint of heart or weak of stomachs. What I really like about Cole is her execution of the heavy, gut punchy stuff. The story, the characters are always bigger than just gratuitous Continue Reading

Kit Averin is anything but Continue Reading
Angela’s Best of 2018
Contemporary Romance: The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang- Here's a quote from my review "The Kiss Quotient is the very best thing I can think of… a debut novel that kept me up late into the night telling myself “just one more chapter” until I couldn’t keep my eyes open anymore." Read the rest of my review here. Historical Romance: Band Sinister by KJ Charles- A quote from my review:"I loved how their entire relationship was framed around consent. I loved that this couple was Continue Reading
Smex Scene Sunday
As the saying goes, better late than never. Both on this post and me reading this book. Priest pubbed in 2015 by Sierra Simone. This is quite possibly one of the sexiest books I read in 2018. As the title of this book is Priest, if church sex or the intersection of religion, sex and romance is a thing for you, this scene and book is not for you. Without further delay, here is a super sexy and long scene from Priest. There is a lot more, but for the sake of not posting the entire book here, I Continue Reading
Kini’s Friday Kisses
I didn't get nearly as much reading done in the last week as I wanted to do. I vow to read at least one book over the New Year holiday though. The Accidental Beauty Queen by Teri Wilson- This book had a cute blurb and was described as a cross between The Parent Trap (Lindsay Lohan version is my fave) and Miss Congeniality, which I also enjoyed. Sadly, the book was pretty much a disappointment. The heroine, Charlotte, is a librarian and ends up filling in for her sister in a beauty Continue Reading

Beards, brothers, and bikers! Oh my!Identical twins Beau and Duane Winston might share the same devastatingly handsome face, but where Beau is outgoing and sociable, Duane is broody and reserved. This is why perpetually level-headed Jessica James has been in naïve and unhealthy infatuation with Beau Winston for most of her life. Whereas Duane and Jessica have always been adversaries. She can't stand him, and she's pretty sure he can't stand the sight of her...But after a case of mistaken Continue Reading
