Winner announcement time!


Hey Everyone!

I hope you all had a great weekend, and that it was just as sunny and warm in your corner of the world as it was in mine 😀

I was busy with preparations because on Monday I’m going away for a week long trip to Italy! *jumps up and down excitedly* Yes! to the (hopefully) very sunny Italy! :-))  I’m seriously in need of vacation after the recent crazy weeks at work, and my colleagues and friends are all just as envious and sulking as the kitten that they can’t come with me either.

But back to today’s business: I have TONS of winners to announce, so I’d better get started!

So drumroll please:

Congratulations to

*drumroll*

Review: Rivals for Love by Eve Vaughn

Format Read: eBook Release Date: 26 May 2010Publisher: Carina PressFormats Available: eBookSource: copy provided by publisher through NetGalleyPurchasing Info: Goodreads, Author’s Website, Carina Press

Book Blurb:

Hayden Sinclair has it all: a job she loves, supportive friends and a drop-dead gorgeous boyfriend. She should be happy-and she should say yes when Luc proposes marriage. But one thing stands in her way: Sawyer Underwood, her impossibly sexy ex, who disappeared almost a year ago.

When Sawyer returns, he has one goal in mind: to win Hayden back, and away from his long-hated rival, Luc. Sawyer’s willing to do anything it takes, and he’ll use all his powers of persuasion to convince Hayden that he’s the man for her-especially in the bedroom. But Luc’s not willing to give Hayden up without a fight!

As the two men battle for Hayden’s affections, she is torn between them. If only they could reach a compromise-then …

Smut in the City: Sexy Recommendations!

Hey Everyone!
We are back again to talk about everything sexy and smutty, and this Saturday we would like to share with you a few recommendations in the smutty genre. So those who are new to racey novels or those smut veterans who would like to discover a couple new great reads, please take a seat, kick off your shoes and let the girl talk begin. 🙂

We categorized our recommendations into 3 types, depending on the sensuality rate:

1) Warm sparkles flying: these books are for smut novices: they have some tender loving and sensual scenes, but nothing too graphic (mostly romance novels with some love scenes). This first category is not smut, merely sensual or sexy love scenes.

2) Scorchingly hot: a bit more intense, for those who want more than just some general, subtle allusion to caresses, you need a fan reading these!

3) Instant combustion:not for the faint hearted! These books have graphic …

All YA Love: I was a YA sceptic…but not anymore

Hey Everyone!

Not only should you be surprised that I am doing a YA post now, but that I will be advocating YA novels! Yes, me, who was admitting everywhere, high and low that Twilight must have been the last YA novel I have read as I’m not a big fan of teenage literature. And guess what? Seems I was proven wrong! I know, sounds pretty shocking, so hear me out.

I don’t/didn’t like YA books because I was irritated by all the teenage drama, the constant whining and drama queen antics, that every little problem means the end of the world and the lack of maturity and intelligence in the characters not only frustrated, but angered me. But recently, despite my misgivings I have read a few YA novels and believe me, I was the most shocked to discover that I loved them!

So it seems my prejudiced days against YA novels are …

Smut in the City: Our First Times

Hey Everyone!
We would like to introduce to you a new weekly feature here at Book Lovers Inc:
Smut in the City!

Though we believe the name speaks for itself, just a few words to tell you what you can expect in these Saturday posts. As book lovers we tend to discuss the latest books we read and loved rather passionately, and the swoonworthy heroes always get a special place in our hearts (and impassioned ramblings 😉 lol), so we thought why not make Saturdays our weekly occasion to share with each other the latest hot books we discovered, the yummy heroes that make our hearts beat faster and just to gather around cocktails and girl talk? So please join us, grab yourself a Margarita, Cosmopolitan, Mojito or whatever is your personal poison, sit comfortably and let the talk about anything sexy, sensual, smutty or just plain hot begin! 🙂

When planning this feature, the …

Book Blurb: St. Vladimir’s Academy isn’t just any boarding school—it’s a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They’ve been on the run, but now they’re being dragged back to St. Vladimir’s—the very place where they’re most in danger…


Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy’s ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi—the world’s fiercest and most dangerous vampires—make Lissa one of them forever.

Review: FU by Mia Watts


Format Read: eBook
Release Date: 11 February 2010
Publisher: Resplendence Publishing
Formats Available: eBook
Purchasing Info: Goodreads, Author’s Website, Resplendence Publishing, Amazon

Book Blurb: When a screw-up by the Fullerton University Housing Office leaves Parker Galloway shacked up with four sexy men, Parker thinks four just might be her lucky number… as long as she can get Kei Yamamoto to join in the fun.

But will taking advantage of FU’s mistake end up getting all five roomies kicked off campus, or will it be the closest thing to heaven Parker has ever experienced?

 

My Thoughts:
I think it goes without saying that it was the very hot and titillating premise which made me pick up this book. I mean one girl sharing a college room with 4 hot men – who wouldn’t be interested in seeing where this story goes? And FU was everything I expected and much more!

Mia Watts’ …
