I’ve always loved to read, but it has only been about the last three years where I must admit to it becoming somewhat of an addiction. When I innocently commented to a friend that I had read the Twilight series and really enjoyed it, she said, “Well, if you liked that, you’d probably like some of these.” She proceeded to pull boxes out from storage in her garage and opened them to reveal so many books I was overwhelmed. The first series she gave me was the Argeneau Vampire series by Lynsay Continue Reading

Smexy’s Top Ten–January 6th
10. It’s a new year! Anyone make any resolutions? I think the only resolution I made last year was to have sex with Barrons. Oddly enough, that didn’t come true. Should I continue to wait? 9. Speaking of Barrons, Karen Marie Moning has said she will begin posting teasers for ICED, the first book in her new series featuring Dani, on her Facebook page starting January 17th. (Instead of her newsletters as she did with the Fever series). Last week on Facebook, she also posted a quote from Adam Continue Reading
Guest Author Katie Reus and Giveaway
Why I Love Romance Thanks so much to Mandi for having me as a guest at Smexy Books! This month Deadly Obsession released from Carina Press so in celebration I’m on a short blog tour discussing all things romance! I read romance for so many different reasons. Almost always for the happily ever after (I’m not a fan of happy for now, I want the juicy emotional ending that promises of HEA…though there are exceptions), but I find myself reading specific authors for specific reasons. When I’m Continue Reading
The Smexy Family is Growing
Tori and I are happy to share with you today that we have two new reviewers starting at Smexy Books! Helyce and May. I’ve been thinking for awhile now about bringing on a new reviewer or two. To keep up with reviews, Tori and I have a very strict reading schedule. Which we are not complaining about, because if we didn’t read every day, we would go insane. We have to read. But at the same time, we get these great recommendations from others, and if the book is not on our Continue Reading
Guest Author: Regan Hastings
Who Regan Hastings Is Not Although VISIONS OF MAGIC is the first book by Regan Hastings, it’s far from the author’s first book.

Smexy’s Top Ten–December 16th
10. My week – It’s cold here y’all. I mean, Maryland gets cold weather, but it hasn’t reached 30 degrees all week. And the wind, oh the wind. I told Tori I’m moving south to her house – she better be ready! 9. This week I saw Kati, from Katidom tweeting about how much she loved Liberating Lacey by Anne Calhoun. She then posted her review, which sealed the deal for me. I bought it and started it right away – I have no control! Hands down, this is the BEST erotic I have read this year Continue Reading
Smexy’s Top Ten–December 10th
10. My Week – Big news…BIG news..the hot tub is no longer in my driveway. It is now in my backyard. Still vertical..and still wrapped in plastic. But, we have an electrician and crew scheduled to come out next week so there is hope! I am still convinced that when we actually tip hot tub over into proper position it will disintegrate into dust or something, but I will try to stay optimistic. 9. I am now a member of the DIK (Desert Island Keeper) Blog! They are a really fab Continue Reading

Author Websites – The Good and The Bad
Since I am a long time reader, have been a blogger for awhile now and have spent an obsessive amount some time on the internet, I have seen a lot of author websites. As a blogger, I use them more as a tool to get my reviews ready. Going to them for links, cover art and to see what books are included in a series. As a reader, I use them to stalk future releases and read blog posts. I can’t say how frustrating it is when you go to an author’s website and you can’t find what you are looking for. Or Continue Reading
