Shhh We’re Reading Dirty Books

142 - Shifter Business by Rhiannon Hartley

In book 3 (yes we skipped #2!) of the Raising Hell Downunder series we get to have the story of Emily and Dan. Emily is a human, ex-social media influencer who is trying to find her path in life and finding it slowly by pursuing a career in psychology. Dan is a shape-shifting jaguar, who is also a psychologist but for those in the paranormal community. As their paths cross, caused by a silly kangaroo, they can’t help but to start developing feelings for each, even after their first encounter makes them enemies. A beautiful friendship blossoms and we get to grow with each of them through their journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance, of themselves and each other. And yes friends, these two SMASH! So join us for some fun squishy times with human Emily and non-native to Australia jaguar shifter Dan.

140 - Crimson Mourning by Lawrence Hall and Michelle Miller

This week we take a turn down a dark alley and into a dark romance novel, something that we have yet to venture into. Crimson Mourning is the prequel to The Games of the Underworld series that brings us into a dystopia full of powerful vampires, lustful humans, sex, and violence. In this world, the vampire councils make the rules, including the shunning of vampire-human marriages, but there are always those who will defy their orders to make this life their own. Cassie, a human turned vampire, wants more than what this new life has given to her. This story sets the pace for the many stories taking place in this shared universe. Join us in something new and exciting, and enter this world where even we don’t know who we are supposed to love and who we’re supposed to run from.

Here is an adorably funny story about how Sam, Lucifer’s assistant and human (or is he?) and Gideon, a demon who also works for Lucifer, fall in love with each other after an intense one-night stand - but not without avoiding the dilemma of inter-office romance of course! Along with Lucifer’s elite team of supernaturals, Sam and Gideon help uncover a secret genetic experimentation where pregnant people are going missing, while also discovering Sam’s own origin story. This book has all the feels - love, humor, empathy, anger, horniness… Seriously, sex with cooking oil and an array of paranormal themed dildos. What are we waiting for?!!

137 - Tasting Red by Holly Roberds

My what big… curiosity you have. Was this a good one? Hell yes it was. We love sexy retellings of our childhood fairytales and this one did not disappoint! Join us as we discuss this fun, sexy, magical rendition of Little Red Riding Hood and the big bad wolf with none other than Holly Roberds herself. We had a wonderful conversation about stinky magic, kickass best friends, Chip and Dale rescue rangers, and so many other interesting things - but mostly about how much we enjoyed Holly’s readaptation of the characters from the classic telling of Little Red Riding Hood. Red is a special woman who is out in the world just trying to find her true self, Brexley is a shifter who was hired to kill Red’s infamous grandma, and boy what quick sex we get within the first couple of pages. We hope you read along because this one is definitely worth the listen!

135 - Big Bad Wolf by Suleika Snyder

This is a different type of book for us, more of a paranormal urban fantasy romance. And we loved it! We loved this alternate reality world where shifters and paranormals were exposed following the unfortunate election of a certain president and now the world is struggling to deal with the results of that revelation. We have Joe, a shifter who was caught murdering mobsters and is not on trial for his life and Neha, his lawyer who is trying to defend him. When they first meet the attraction takes them both by surprise and as they navigate the dangerous underground world of shifter mobsters they fall deeper for each other. The sex is intense from the very beginning and the action is explosive. This book is different but fun and we are excited to read more by Suleikha Snyder.

134 - Obsession: The Mate Games - Kim Loraine & Meg Anne

We are excited to try out a new Reverse Harem book and one written by Kim Loraine who we know brings the hot steamy scenes. We are introduced to Sunday Fallon, a wolf shifter and heir to a major wolf pack, with one small problem, she can’t shift. She is shipped off to a supernatural university type school where the best and brightest go to train and learn supernatural statecraft. What does Sunday learn? That she is infatuated with and possibly loves not one not two not three, but four super hot and powerful paranormal men. The naughty priest scenes with Caleb are tantalizing and the push pull with Kingston ratchets up the tension. This book has a ton of hot scenes, including some of our favorite: voyeurism.
