Do you ever read books that get you a little hot and steamy? If you do, join in Hot Reads and share some of your favorite sexy reads and find some new ones!
Hot Reads is a Monthly Meme, hosted by Book Savvy Babe and Alive on the Shelves, where we get to share our hottest read of the month! Your choice can be any book, it doesn’t matter the genre, the length, whether it’s new or old. If you read it during the month, and it raised your temperature, it qualifies to be a HOT READ! To make things as simple as possible, Hot Reads will take place the 28th day of the month. So every month, be ready to share your HOT READ pick!
IMPORTANT: Due to content, this meme is open to participants 18 and older ONLY!
How To Participate:
- Pick your HOT READ of the month (ex. on March 28, you pick your HOT READ for the month of March)
- Make a blog post sharing your Hot Read pick. Include in the post: book title, author, HOT READ button, and links to the hosts. If you would like to include book teasers, book review, etc feel free!
- Add the link to your post in the linky at a host site and visit the other blogs to see what others chose as their HOT READ! (you only need to enter your link 1 time)
- As always, don’t forget to spread the word! (help us out by tweeting, facebook, etc)
Now, a HOT READ doesn’t have to be hard-core. Maybe the author’s photo made you hot! Maybe the cover art — all those broad shoulders and rippling abs — raised your temperature. Maybe there was just a scene or a setting that made you squirm in your seat — those all qualify! After all, we don’t all have the same taste in men (or ladies, pick your pleasure), so why should we have the same taste in HOT READS?
Thanks for joining in this meme, we can’t wait to learn your Hot Read! The linky will remain open until the end of the month.
My April Hot Read:
I am a fan of Sylvia Day, and this month I had the opportunity to read her newest release, Bared to You. This is a contemporary, erotic romance and I really liked this one. The relationship between Gideon and Eva is complex and deep. Their connection is powerful, Gideon is magnetic, and I was thoroughly entranced in the book while I was reading. I highly recommend reading this one, here’s the link to my review.
Blurb from Goodreads:
Our journey began in fire…
Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness—beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I’d never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily…
Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other’s most private wounds… and desires.
The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn’t tear us apart..

I totally forgot this month–I will be back next month
My pick would have been the same as yours. It was by far the steamiest book I read this month.
