Susan Cliff Talks Romance, Harlequins, Her New Release and a Giveaway!!
Hello Smexy Books! When did you start reading romance? For me it was the summer of ‘87. I was eleven years old, unattended and un-athletic but not unadventurous. I wanted excitement! Danger! Boys!

I don’t recall YA being a genre back then. There were children’s books and adult books, and I’d already graduated to adult. I Continue Reading

Over the years, I have found A&O to be consistently amazing, where as sometimes I find Mercy Thompson series to be just okay. (Although overall, both series swirl around as urban fantasy favorites). Briggs is a terrific storyteller. She presents strong, flawed, sometimes terrifying Continue Reading
