/ The Smut-Brarians / Leave a comment

The Playboy by Marni Mann is now live! 

A sizzling, grumpy-sunshine, boy-obsessed, one-night-stand romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …

Spade. People know what to expect when they hear my last name.

Billionaire. Alphahole. The forever bachelor. Heir to Spade Hotels, one of the most luxurious brands in the world.

Want to know what they would never call me?

Boyfriend.

Until her.

With one glance at her in the club, I’m ready to claim her for the night.

Dark, flowing hair. A smile that causes my heart to pound. Eyes that pierce my soul. And a perfect body that makes every part of me pulse.

She’s addictive. Electrifying. Consuming.

I’ve never wanted anyone more.

Our eyes meet, but she looks right past me. She isn’t here for me. She’s here for the music.

For the first time in my life, a woman makes me work for it. Her indifference fuels the fire inside me.

The result? One night. No names. No introductions.

Just pleasure.

The way I’ve always liked it.

But now, I find myself fantasizing about this gorgeous stranger, and I swear I can still feel the softness of her skin and taste her on my lips.

The minute I saw her, a switch flipped inside me. Now, how do I stop this raging … obsession?

When our paths cross again in the most unexpected way, I’m on a mission to make her mine. But what happens when she wants nothing to do with me?

I REALLY love all of the Dalton brothers, Spade family and this entire book universe. Macon Spade is the perfect hard working and hard playing man, and I could not get enough of him. He sees what he wants, he goes for what he wants, and he gets what he wants. And what he wants is…Brooklyn. There was a lot of playing hard to get by Brooklyn which wore a bit on me. But all of the steaminess made this a page turner that I enjoyed.

Because of Her by Jewel E. Ann is now live!


“If sin weren’t pretty, it wouldn’t be so tempting.”I was an accomplished music professor.Happily single. Perfectly content.
Now, I’m unemployed.Pining for a dark, brooding guy named Jack who lives in a garage with a piano.And I’m plotting to seduce a married man because his daughter is responsible for my nephew committing suicide.


I don’t know why teenage girls are so mean. I don’t know why rich men cheat on their wives. And I don’t know why Jack has serial killer vibes, even though he leaves me speechless every time he speaks.
All I know for sure is that I feel safe in a stranger’s arms and understood by someone I don’t understand.“You should be a little scared of everyone because humans are unpredictable.”
How far will I go for revenge? More than that …How far will he go to save me?

Jewel always makes me fall in love with her words. Getting to go back and get some closure in a wway on some of my favorites was beautiful. Although this story isn’t for the faint hearted it was beautifully written.

The angst and twist kept me in my feels the whole time! The pace was perfect. Addicting all the way around! I just wanted more!!

Fate of a Faux by Meagan Brandy & Amo Jones is Now Available!

FATE OF A FAUX
Meagan Brandy AND Amo Jones
Release Date: October 6

The King of Darkness is dead.

It’s time for a new one to rise…

London Crow isn’t who I thought she was.

She’s worse.

My hate for her knows no bounds.

My need for her has no end.

But it’s my inability to have her that might just end us all, as the fates refuse to be ignored.

Now, there’s a darkness sweeping the streets of Rathe, threatening to destroy the Kingdom we know and love, and it’s all because of her.

The mate I can’t have.

The bond I can’t let go.

There is only one way to restore balance, and it begins and ends with her.

The problem? I broke the girl into a thousand tiny pieces without a second thought. Earning her forgiveness won’t be easy, but that’s fine.

If she won’t give it freely, I will take it.

One mistake at a time.

This was a complex, dark fantasy story that I found addictive, frustrating, confusing and a little bit of a roller coaster ride. The hero and heroine aren’t really “together” the majority of the story so it was hard to gauge the connection. I like twisted stories but this one left me as a reader in the dark at times. I was never quite sure what was reality but in the end…it all came together. Definitely intriguing world building. Seriously complicated characters. I would read more about the Deveraux brothers.

ＮＯＷ ＡＶＡＩＬＡＢＬＥ!

Blurb

Halston University was supposed to be my fresh start, my chance to prove I can stand on my own, except it’s not only passing classes I have to worry about.

Secrets…Desperation…Shattered Dreams… my life is one big balancing act. But what happens if I fall?

And then there’s them – three guys, each with their own darkness and allure. My demons.

There’s Logan, the golden boy on the ice, who believes in soulmates and love at first sight. He sees me, really sees me, and I can’t help but feel drawn to him.

Royce, the brooding one. He’s like a storm, unpredictable and dangerous, pushing me to confront parts of myself I’d long buried and awakening something dark within me. Every interaction is charged with venom and desire, a twisted dance that’s both enthralling and frightening.

Then there’s Grayson, my estranged stepbrother, dead set on revenge. Plotting my demise in the shadows of his ire and resentment, even as it threatens to consume us both. But what do you do when you can’t deny the lingering feelings of attraction, of something more?

No matter how far I run, there is no escaping my past.

And, if my trauma doesn’t swallow me whole, Grayson Van Doren surely will.

As the scars of the past come knocking on my door, I’ll need to embrace the darkness to forge a path of redemption, maybe even love. A future for myself, one where I survive my demons.

Frozen Hearts is a dark and seductive romance with multiple love interests that will grip your soul and leave you yearning for more. A dark, college, hockey, stepbrother romance. Frozen Hearts is the first book in the Halston U duet. This series does contain trigger warnings.

Freaking amazing! The male antagonists were incredibly complex. I was addicted to the tangled emotions these three felt for not only for each other, but for Riley as well. Riley has suffered so much abuse and continues to endure constant obstacles. So of course, these guys need to pile more crap on her. I wanted to scream alongside her at every single setback. Don’t even get me started on Logan, Royce and Grayson. Love them, hate them, want to make the crawl…ugh! I need more of Riley’s story STAT! And some groveling. Lots of groveling.

Blurb:

After being a soldier, working as a bodyguard should have been simple:

Keep the owner of DC’s ultra-secret club safe.

Don’t think about his midnight eyes or his devil’s smile.

Don’t surrender my body to his wicked desires.

But I underestimated Mark Trevena and the power of his dark, seductive world. I underestimated the hold he’d have on me, the way I would do anything for him, anything at all. And so when he asks me to escort his soon-to-be bride home, I can only—miserably, broken-heartedly—say yes.

Isolde is nothing like I expect, however. Quiet and lonely and sharp, a girl who likes knives and God, a girl whose nightmares echo my own. One night while sailing under the cold stars, we share a reckless, tear-soaked kiss.

I’m doomed. Falling in love with Mark was one thing, but his bride too? Being in love with a husband and wife at the same time?

Torture. Misery.

A tragedy if tragedies came with bruises, sweat, sighs.

But it isn’t enough to merely fall into the forbidden.  Because in Mark Trevena’s world, the fall is only the beginning…

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve read some Sierra Simone. When browsing and saw this one I had to have it! The first thing I’m going to tell you is to buckle up. This is one ride that’s gonna wreck you. In all the best ways of course!

The ending! Seriously. You should definitely be aware this ends in a massive cliffy. There’s a novella-ish book before this one that you need to read so you can have the full effect. The characters, Mark, Tristan, and Isolde completely kept my attention and won me over. Although the end of the boom ended with some crazy I feel like that will just be the beginning. And I can’t wait!!

This is definitely a must read book! It’s steamy, full of angst, and flows effortlessly. Once again sierra does a phenomenal job with her story telling.
