Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts: Summer is almost over…
I can’t believe it’s August already. In a little over two weeks, my daughter will return to college for her sophomore year. I had high expectations that college would mark some kind of turning point for her, and it did in small ways, but not to the extent I’d hoped. I’m crossing my fingers that she is ready to take on new challenges, be a little braver and have a more positive experience. My son will be a senior in college and he’s ready to be done with school-but I don’t think he really has Continue Reading
Sheena’s Wistful/Wanton Wednesday!
Happy Humpday! Today's swoony/smexy quotes hail from Kennedy Kelly's Roomies. Kelly is an author I came across last year and blasted through all of her books; loving her voice as much as I did. Roomies displays Kelly's trademark sexy, angsty drama that I just can't get enough of. Three Roommates. Two Guys. One Love. For Lexi, dodging her roommates' attempt to land her the guy of her dreams isn't easy, especially since those roommates are goofball Travis and Sexy-as-sin Continue Reading

Review: Shadow’s Bane by Karen Chance
Shadow's Bane by Karen Chance Dorina Bashaba, #4 Urban Fantasy July 31, 2018 Favorite Quote: “Love is sending someone away because you would rather hurt than hurt them. Love is fighting beside them, bleeding along with them and putting their well-being above your own. Love is trembling at their touch so much that you do not notice that they are trembling at yours.” “I’m not trembling.” “I am,” he whispered and kissed me. Reviewed by Tori Dorina Basarab is a Continue Reading
Review: Darkest Night by Megan Erickson
Darkest Night by Megan Erickson (Wired and Dangerous #2) Releases: July 31, 2018 Romantic Suspense Forever Reviewed by Mandi I really enjoyed book one in this series that features a group of hackers/bad asses that want revenge. We learned in book one, that years ago women were kidnapped into an underground sex ring, and the heroine of book one was able to escape before she was abused. But the heroine in this book, Fiona, wasn't rescued for days, and she was drugged and raped. Now Continue Reading
Review: Edge of Nowhere by Felicia Davin
Edge of Nowhere by Felicia Davin (Nowhere #1) Releases: July 31, 2018 M/M Sci-Fi Self Published Reviewed by Mandi This book hooked me right from the beginning, and while it may have slowed down a bit in the middle, I still enjoyed it. Set not too far into the future, there are people in the world called runners, who can walk into this dark, vast, unknown space they call The Nowhere (maybe think of it a little like the Upside Down from Stranger Things). Runners can be anywhere, and in Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten – July 27
10. I don't know if I blame this on being 40, or just being a big dummy but... on Wednesday, I dropped my son off at his 30 min piano lesson, and I ran to the grocery store to grab a few things. I then promptly drove home, and unloaded the groceries and kept thinking - hmmm something feels weird. Yes, I forgot my son was still at piano (I had his cell phone in my purse) so that was super awesome. And then yesterday, I drove him to his 90 min rugby practice. I came home and started dinner, and Continue Reading
Kini’s Friday Kisses
It's been a much better reading week for me this week. And lots more kisses were read. I started One Wedding Two Brides by Heidi Betts, it had a cute blurb and I'm a sucker for a fake marriage. It quickly fell apart for me when the heroine was super drunk but the hero still thought it was okay to get married to her. The heroine also referred to another woman as a bitch and floozy. Hard pass. DNF A Duke by Default by Alyssa Cole. I really did not care for this heroine when she was Continue Reading
