I hope you find her, before you destroy both of us.” Diane Broen Continue Reading

DEVIL’S KISS, the first book of my new Hellraisers series, is a big departure for me. Like my previous series, the Blades of the Rose, the Hellraisers books are historical paranormal romance, but that’s where the similarities end. For one thing, the setting is 18th century England. That’s almost exotic for me! But I picked England in the Georgian period because, first of all, I love the clothes. The women wear beautiful gowns, sure, but how sexy is this guy? Just picture him wearing some Continue Reading

Had he not been so occupied with cutting down demons, he would have gladly focused his full attention on Zora in her beautiful, lethal dance.

Smexy’s Top Ten–December 9th
10. The Christmas tree is up and hubs and I didn’t even threaten to divorce each other once! Getting the tree to stand upright without falling over in the stand is probably the most stressful 30 minutes of our marriage every year. It also helped that I spiked hubs eggnog prior to doing the tree. The holidays are in full swing. 9. This week I finished up the Florida series by KA Mitchell. I really enjoyed all three books.

Guest Author Jennifer Armentrout and Giveaway
We are happy to have Jennifer Armentrout at Smexy today to celebrate her release of her new book, Obsidian. Take it away, Jennifer! If you’ve read Half-Blood or Obsidian, it’s pretty obvious I’m big on the romance. I don’t think I could write a book that didn’t have a decent amount of love fest going on. Romance is always integral to whatever book I’m writing, and I think one of the reason why I love writing it so much is because I LOVE reading it. Especially in young adult books. That Continue Reading
