New Year - Update

I hope you have all had some kind of break and a wee bit of fun in the sun over Christmas and the New Year holiday season! I know that the fun in the sun part has been very weather permitting! Oh well let’s all put it out there for continued fine weather over the next few months!

Well…over the last few months I not have managed to get onto the blog as offen as I would have liked.

But the kids are heading back to school next week....Yeah.. And although the Christmas break was fantastic I am looking forward to get back into a routine.

Just a word of warning, new cell phones and auto correct are a spectacular way to let your family and friends rolling around on the ground at your expense.

Ok, what's new well we have lingerie to warm any cool nights you may be have, or just to spice up your nightlife.

There will be more reviews - monthly drinks - mad tit bits (to add a smile to your day) - and more sizzling stories from a great range of authors...

So we'll chat soon........

10 Ways Romance Alpha Heroes Are More Like Newborn Babies

10. They both get really cranky if you don’t feed them. They also enjoy a nice burp afterwards.

9. They both have a real fondness for nipples.

8.They both have really nasty tempers. A little pat on the butt always helps.

7. They both have a tendency to wake you up at all hours of the night.

6. They both will throw a fit if they can’t snuggle on demand.

5. They both excrete a pungent scent – dark and spicy or is that a diaper?

4. They both can rock the baldie look. Hard.

3.They both appreciate a nice sponge bath.

2. They both are selfish, overbearing, bossy and loud. But we love them anyway.

1. They both have a way of making you fall head over heals in love at first sight.

I just love the blog of Smokin Hot Books Reviews - Hope you do too

Ebooks verses Printed Books

Who would have guessed that there would come a time, when the printed word was being 

outsold by the digital version.

Ebooks verses Printed Books

 

Amazon announced the Kindle books are outselling hardcovers!

I love printed books there is just something about them. Maybe its the fact you can throw it in bag and whip it out when a spare minute shows itself. Or it could be that you can curl up in bed or in front of fire, letting pages slip through your fingers as your imagination walks over the paper.

Ebooks verses Printed Books started for me when I was looking for a book to buy from an Author I was recommend. I was horrorfied to find it was only in an ebook version there was no printed book.

How was I suppose to read it?

I didn't know a damn thing about ebooks?

Thank God for kids, my darlings took my hand and lead me through the scary 

pathways of ebooks......

They download Kindle for PC's and got a few of the free books for me to try...then I brought my first ebook - Alphas' Mate by Leah Brooke.

From there ebooks have slow drawn me in, to the point that six months ago I started my hunt for the ideal ebook reader. There are so many and none did what I wanted and that was to read a range of formats.

I wanted to be able to transfer the library I had build up over the years to my own device.(And off my husbands laptop)

  Did I find one? No, but I recently brought an ipad. 

I still love printed books, but since I have had my ipad I am hardly without it. And an ever growing library of books as there is hardly a day that goes by where I don't buy a book.

Shot wouldn't that cost alot, you may ask?
No, not really I normal spent between $30 - $50 NZ a week on books between buying them or renting them from the library. Depending on the Author and the size of the book I can get anything from 3 to 10 ebooks a week. For the same price and I can have them delivery from anywhere in the world to me within the minute.

I will always love printed books and will still buy the odd one to add to my shelve, but as things changed so have I.

What do you prefer?

Do you prefer stories with bad boys or do you like to read about alpha heroes?

What level of spice do you look for in a book, is one that burns your hands as you turn the page or is it a slow building ember that becomes a flame?


Is it the setting you love Historical, Contemporary, Paranormal or Urban Fantasy?

It's a difficult question to answer, at least for me. I love reading a large range of novels romance, erotica, paranormal romance and urban fantasy books with both!
