Smexy’s Top Ten – August 1st
10. I've never said "yeth" *shifty eyes* 9. Earlier this year I read Indecent...Exposure by Jane O'Reilly (see my smex scene post) and I really enjoyed. It was hot, dirty and awkward. I had kind of forgotten that two more (with different heroes and heroines) were going to be released in this series until Katherine recommended I try book two (thanks Katherine!) These are very short novellas so they are quick reads. Indecent..Proposal was DIRTY FUN. The heroine is very promiscuous, and Continue Reading

Tori’s Mini Reviews
Every once in a while I like to do a short write up of some “mini reviews” for books that for various reasons were not able to be included on the review schedule. I don't grade these reviews, I merely offer up my thoughts and opinions to you. Takedown (Bannon’s Gym, #2) by Cat Grant Romance Contemporary M/M July 29, 2014 Samhain I liked the premise of Takedown but found the story didn’t engage me. There were too many conflicts vying for attention, resulting in none of them being explored Continue Reading
