Stephanie Julian is stopping by Smexy today to talk about her recent book, An Indecent Proposition. A little over a year ago, I started a little story called AN INDECENT PROPOSITION. I’d gotten a call from Judi Fennell who asked if I wanted to be in an anthology with Cherrie Lynn, Olivia Cunning and Cari Quinn. I’m no fool. I said yes. Since I love writing ménage, that’s the framework I chose. And I wrote AN INDECENT PROPOSITION. The PART I came later, after I realized 18,000 words weren’t Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–January 3rd
10. Update: The snow has not interfered with wasting my day online. All is lazy good here. The wind chill is currently –5 – I don’t even know if my dog will attempt the outside today. 9. Amy tweeted this cover yesterday. I know nothing about this book or the authors. But I do know that this cover is hot. The blurb doesn’t scare me away either. (Can’t find info on the release date) 8. I first saw The Do-Over by MK Schiller recommended by Jane from Dear Author, and since then I’ve see many Continue Reading
Review: The Destiny of Violet & Luke by Jessica Sorensen
The Destiny of Violet & Luke by Jessica (The Coincidence #3) Sorensen Releases: January 7, 2014 New Adult Forever Reviewed by Mandi Note: Even though this is The Coincidence #3, it is the first of two books for Luke & Violet (first two were Callie & Kayden, where Luke does play a small role) I really enjoyed the first two books in this series featuring Callie and Kayden (friends of Violet and Luke). Both Callie and Kayden were so screwed up and there was angst over Continue Reading
Review: Born In Blood by Alexandra Ivy
Born In Blood (Sentinels, #1) by Alexandra Ivy Paranormal Romance Paperback, 400 pages December 31, 2013 Zebra Reviewed by Tori Sergeant Duncan O’Conner has seen it all before. A beautiful erotic dancer is found murdered in her home—no suspect, no motive. But there’s one clue: she’s missing her heart. It’s enough to make the hard-bitten Kansas City cop enlist the help of a necro—one of the dead-channeling freaks who live in the domed city of nearby Valhalla. It’s a long shot, but Continue Reading
Review: Snow Day by Shannon Stacey, Jennifer Greene, and Barbara Dunlop
Snow Day by Shannon Stacey, Jennifer Greene, Barbara Dunlop Released: December 1, 2013 Holiday Romance Harlequin Reviewed by May This book has three stories, told by three different authors, but all take place over the same few days during a massive storm in Tucker’s Point, Maine. Overall I wish that the stories had been turned more into a cohesive novel or that the points of view overlapped more smoothly than they do here, but it is still a nice effort. Want to see three couples Continue Reading
Our 2014 Reading Resolutions
It’s a brand, spanking new year and the ladies of Smexy Books have decided it’s time to get serious (well, as serious as we like to get around here) and set some goals for 2014. May’s Resolutions: 1. I will read no book that promises “fans of ____ will love this!” 2. I will measure facial hair on all potential new fictional heroes. I need more beards. 3. Any hero living in a cabin in the woods, as a recluse, or otherwise being survival/wilderness man off somewhere immediately gets #1 Continue Reading
Top Ten Favorite Sex Scenes of 2013
My favorite sexy books of 2013. Explicit naughtiness below. In no particular order… Beyond Control by Kit Rocha – Dallas gives me the naughty shivers. And Lex is awesome. Review l Kindle “Give me this, Lexie.” HIs voice was a coaxing rumble, the gentleness a thin mask over hard command. Each time he rocked into her was a little rougher as his patience unraveled. “Tell me my cock’s the hottest thing I’ve ever fucked you with.” “You know it is.” She barely recognized her own voice, low and Continue Reading
