Temptress By Lola Dodge Paranormal Romance (Novella) June 12, 2012 Samhain Reviewed by May The girl was legendary. She’d taken more supers- villains and heroes – off the market than any other mercenary, and she was one of a handful of us who was unregistered with the bureau. Untraceable. It was assumed that her targets went missing or worse. Not to prison. Jenny Ray aka Temptress works freelance for Las Vegas hotels (security) as well as working for the police, bringing super heroes in Continue Reading
Smex Scene Sunday
As I was sitting here trying to think of what smex scene I wanted to feature today, I remembered it is Father’s Day (Don’t be weirded out..stick with me!) And for some reason, Zsadist and Bella’s short story, “Father Mine” by JR Ward came to me. In this one, Nalla, Z and Bella’s daughter has been born, and Z has been reluctant to be intimate with Bella. But then the sexual tension increases until - He reached through the sheets, took her hand, and brought it forward to his body. “I want Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–June 15th
10. I’m not going to fill up today’s top ten with Magic Mike pictures again. I swear. *shifty eyes* Of course, that means you miss the red band trailer where you see Channing’s butt. Or this picture of Channing’s butt. Or this one of Matt Bomer’s butt. Or these butts. I COULD DO A TOP TEN OF JUST BUTTS! But let’s keep it classy, folks. 9. I love Charlotte Stein’s voice. She wrote Sheltered, which is a contemporary I highly recommend. And Control, which is an erotic Continue Reading
Review: The Marrying Kind by Ken O’Neill
The Marrying Kind by Ken O’Neill M/M Romantic Fiction May 30, 2012 Bold Strokes Books Reviewed by Mandi I accepted this review request with a little trepidation. First of all, this is more a romantic fiction than the standard romances I read. The author described the book more as ‘chick-lit but with two gay men’ in his review request, so I was intrigued. He also said, “that if enough people read it my sweet little book might have an impact on the state of equality in this country.” Continue Reading

Review: Last Stop by Lou Harper
Last Stop by Lou Harper M/M Romantic Suspense June 12, 2012 E-book Samhain Reviewed by Helyce Sam Mayne has very little excitement in his life and that is just the way he likes it. He runs a diner in a small Montana town and he’s pretty content with the easy going, quiet of the town. So he’s totally unprepared for Jay Colby, whose constant chatter and effervescent personality is like a bright ray of sunshine in a package that Sam just cannot resist. He knows it’s not a good idea Continue Reading
May’s Summer Recs
Over the next week or two, the Smexy Reviewers will be posting their picks for the best books to read this summer. May is here to kick it off. Looking for a tortured hero, a journalist trying to get her groove back, a psycho bent on revenge, and a whole lot of action? Cindy Gerard’s BOI series is romantic suspense at its finest – they are all good reads! I especially recommend the first: Show Now Mercy. It’s a book I still re-read now and then. Goodreads l Amazon l Continue Reading
