Blogging & News
Blog and Self-Hosted: So this past month, I haven’t been able to read or be as social as I would like to be. With the recent transfer, I am still working on getting everything polished on here. But hopefully, I just have another week or two and then I am done, and I can focus on other things that I love. I did have troubles with Bloglovin at the beginning of the month, but eventually I got it worked out. I have been making some changes. Adding some new features that I hope y’all enjoy!! Loving the new plugins from Nosegraze and boy do I love the UBB!! Makes writing reviews so much easier. I am loving being on a self hosted site though. I have noticed it requires more maintenance, but since I spend so much time working on blogging…it is worth it! This is my passion and I LOVE it!!
HISTROM101—I have been waiting for months to participate in our twitter chat. I am hoping we do this every few months because it was a blast discussing my favorite genre of books to read. There was a good group of us, talking romance, history, characters, plots, fun story lines and so much more!! We are having another one in October which should be awesome. So if any of you enjoy historical romance and need some good recommendation…come on over and join!! If you want to see what you missed out on just head on over to twitter #HistRom101
New Features Added:Â

Close To Heart–My ReviewÂ
Chaos–My Review
Archangel’s Consort–My Review
Dare To Rock=-My Review
With Every Heartbeat–My Review
Magic Slays by Ilona Andrews–This is a series I am loving…love Kate and Curran! One of the best couples to read. It is quite entertaining to seeing them trying to balance everything out in their relationship. Both have Alpha type personalities, so it tends to cause some issues and drama but boy I am soaking it all in.
Wolf Trouble–My Review
Bear Naked–My Review
A Radical Arrangement–My Review
Dirty Thoughts–My Review
Bad Wolf by Jennifer Ashley–a fun and unique novella from this series. It was a bit different but I loved it. We get to see more from previous plot questions that weren’t answered in other books. We see more from TIGER or Tigger…as some of the cubs like to call him. Can I just say he is my favorite character, and I love how frank he is and so sincere about everything he does. He says it how it is, and doesn’t care if you agree or not. Do you like Tiger like I do?
Fire Inside by Kristen Ashley–I am really loving the series so far. Ashley knows how to write her MC romances right? Excited for the third book now.
Magic Bleeds by Illona Andrews–this is where it really gets good between Curran and Kate, the earlier books have been slowly building up to this point and it doesn’t disappoint. But oh the drama…it is never as simple as kiss and make up with these two!! LOL
