10. Better get on that.... A horse named "Bofa Deez Nuts" wins at Oklahoma City Race Park, impossibly professional announcer is NOT fazed and executes it completely deadpan. pic.twitter.com/TLWLfYXoz3 — Spladam (@SplAdamSage) June 2, 2018 9.

Kini’s Friday Kisses
It’s a small miracle but I finished reading two books this week. And finished listening to an audio book. First up I finally read The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang and I didn’t love it. I never really connected with either character. There were some eyerolly moments with a late intro of a villain that almost caused me to DNF. But I took a break and was able to finish it. Helyce really enjoyed the book and reviewed it recently. I finished Bad Bachelor by Stefanie London on Audio and I really Continue Reading

Venom in the Veins by Jennifer Estep Elemental Assassin, #17 Paranormal Romance June 12, 2018 Self Published Gin Blanco, restauranteur and Ashland's latest boss of its underworld, is shocked when Stuart Mosley, Finn's boss and Gin's friend, is assaulted and almost kidnapped.

Helyce’s Thursday Thoughts: The Girl in the Moss by Loreth Anne White and In Bed with the Beast by Tara Sivec
The Girl in the Moss by Loreth Anne White (Angie Pallorino #3) Romantic Suspense June 12, 2018 Montlake Romance Favorite quote: We all tell lies. We all have secrets. A secret can own a person. A secret is powerful. But only to the degree that the truth threatens someone.” I’m not sure what it was about the blurb that captured my attention, but I’m so glad it did. I have not read romantic suspense in a while and I realize now that I’ve missed it. Also, I had no issues reading this Continue Reading
Sheena’s Wistful/Wanton Wednesday!
Happy Hump Day! This weeks Wistful/Wanton quotes are both from Chantal Fernando's Ace of Hearts. Ace of Hearts is book one in her new Cursed Raven's MC (motorcycle club) series. I am a huge fan of her earlier Wind Dragons MC club series and had to add this to my reading list ASAP! While I didn't find myself as addicted to these guys as the Wind Dragon Bikers (seriously, love! Book 1, Dragon's Lair is one of my most enjoyed biker club novels ever). The Cursed Ravens have a princess and Continue Reading
Sheena’s Smexy Snapshot – Runaway Heiress by Syrie James
Runaway Heiress by Syrie James Historical Romance Grade: B+ Runaway Heiress was the quintessential historical novel! I love, love historical romances, and this one was a joy to get lost in. Undercover Heiress/Heir mixed with Heroine as Governess to Heroes children/charges tropes are once that I've come to truly enjoy. I get a kick out of watching people fall in love without care of finances or societal status. And the drama from the fallout of when their true backgrounds are revealed are Continue Reading
Review: Trouble In Cowboy Boots by Desiree Holt
Trouble in Cowboy Boots by Desiree Holt Series: Sequins, Saddles and Spurs, #1 Contemporary Romance (Originally published in 2010 - reedited and revised) Was he going to do it tonight? Was he at last going to fuck her in the ass? WTF. Like I mean Whaaaaat Theeeeee Fuuuuuuuuuucc*. This was so not what I anticipated. Trouble in Cowboy Boots is billed as a romance. Adult, erotica, contemporary, light BDSM romance. Stranded in Mesa Blanco, Texas, with no money and no Continue Reading
Review: Ocean Light by Nalini Singh
Ocean Light by Nalini Singh The Trinity #2, Psy-Changeling #17 PNR Berkley June 12, 2018 Favorite Quote: They might only have a fragment of an instant in time, but he’d make that fragment extraordinary. Ocean Light is Bowen Knight's story; the leader of the Human Alliance and one of the leaders in the Trinity Accord. Fans have been expecting his story, straddling the fence and withholding our forgiveness over his past deeds. Bowen had an experimental chip put in that blocks the Psy's Continue Reading

SmexyBooks is so happy to welcome author Minerva Spencer to the blog. WELCOME MINERVA!! Minerva Spencer's debut historical romance, Dangerous, releases June 26, 2018. My Journey Down Romance Road . . . I read my first romance novel—THE DEVIL ON HORSEBACK, by Victoria Holt—in seventh grade.

Mandi’s Monday Musings – More Than You by Mia Sheridan and Knocked Up by Stacey Lynn
More Than Words by Mia Sheridan Releases: June 12, 2018 Contemporary Romance Most of All You, Sheridan's book published last year, is a favorite of mine. It made me feel all the feels. More Than Words was greatly anticipated, but it misses the mark. We meet Jessica and Callen as teenagers, they randomly meet one day at an abandoned train car, as they are both looking for escapism. Jessica's dad is a serial cheater and her mom falls apart each time. Callen's dad verbally abuses and shames Continue Reading
