Review – Strip Me Bare by M. Never

Strip Me Bare Ebook Cover (1)

Review graphic

When I think that I have gotten a handle on M. Never’s ridiculously incredible talent, she always manages to throw me for a loop. She’s written about the dark dirty that men do and women who are some of the strongest I have ever read. Still I didn’t expect this. Strip Me Bare is something so heartfelt yet complex and absolutely spellbinding.

It certainly doesn’t hurt that there’s a hot stripper with moves that rival Magic Mike.

Alana Remington is a good girl from old money. She’s been given every opportunity but is missing the one thing that she has always longed for – the unconditional love of her father. Since losing her mother, he has been all that she had but he has kept her arm’s length. Unlike her uncle and cousin who have done everything they can to show her the true meaning of family, Judge Remington feels that he must shield himself from emotions and has endeavored to make sure that Alana is steeled and prepared for the future. All of that changes the summer she meets him. Ryan Pierce changes everything. He’s sexy, steamy and completely devoted to her happiness. She gives him everything. Then he’s gone.

Fast forward five years and Alana is preparing to finish college and enter law school. She never expected to see Ryan again and there is he in the flesh. Literally. Ryan is Jack The Stripper at a club called Culture and just as beautiful, just as electric as he ever was. Ryan is shocked to see the love of his life in the club, but for him, nothing has changed. He still loves her, still wants her, still needs her so desperately in his life. But Ryan has a history and a past filled with regrets. A poor boy from New Jersey, he has made decisions to protect the only thing he has -his family, dysfunctional as it is. Now that he has a second chance, he cannot ruin the chance to have her and his career. He knows the dancing and its pitfalls won’t last forever, that it’s simply a step in his plans for the life he is determined to give Alana.

The odds are certainly stacked against them. Knowing her father holds all the cards to her future, Alana and Ryan have to make hard decisions. Alana’s heart is filled with insecurities. Ryan’s sense of obligation to his family will either destroy him or destroy his fragile reunion with Alana. These two experience as much angst as they do elation. Add to the mix intense passion, soul shattering heartbreak and a bond that defies wealth, societal norms and family influence.

This was a fantastic second chance romance! The romance of it sizzled. The swoony alpha hero and his strong sensational leading lady branded my heart. Even filled with a lifetime of hurt, Alana is amazing. This is the tremendous story of a young man determined to have true love and redemption despite the circumstances of his past and the consequences of the chaos. I turned the pages praying and hoping for his happiness, still knowing trouble wanted to infringe on his second chance. I didn’t want this one to end even as I turned the pages as fast I could to get more of this delicious romance! I was hungover and disoriented for days after finishing this book. It’s just that good.

Great job, lady!

“I may have had more lovers than you, and I may take my clothes off for countless women, but you are the only one who can strip me bare.”

Do you ever stop loving someone just because they’re gone?

Five years ago, Ryan Pierce disappeared from Alana Remington’s life without a trace. He was the one she gave her heart to, her soul to — and her virginity to. So, imagine her surprise when she finds him dancing at one of NYC’s hottest male revues as ‘Jack the Stripper.’

Ryan never stopped loving Alana, and now that she has serendipitously dropped back into his life, he’s vowed never to lose her again. But being together has its costs, and challenges Alana isn’t sure she can handle. She finally has Ryan back. But how in the world is she supposed to share the love of her life with half of the women in New York City?

Strip Me Bare is a second chance, standalone romance. It contains angst, heat, humor, heartbreak, and one seductive male stripper who will not only have you handing over your panties, but also your heart.

You’ve been warned.

Review – Turning Up The Heat by Erika Wilde

Turning Up The Heat cover

Review graphic

What happens when you become obessessed with the voice behind your favorite late night talk show? If you’re Ian Carlisle, you spend your nights engaging her in witty sexy banter and becoming so a part of her life and her show that you have to meet and hope that the on air chemistry is just as sizzling off air.

And boy, oh boy! Does is it burn white hot!

This was another delicious read from Erika Wilde! Kerri McCree has come to Chicago to make a name for herself as a talk show DJ. Her topic is all hot and steamy sex. But after a bad relationship, Kerri knows very little about the subject. That doesn’t stop her from faking it and keeping her audience coming back for more. Enter the very delicious and every enthralled Ian Carlisle. Over the past few weeks, he’s been an avid listener and a frequent caller to Kerri’s show. The two have a connection and everyone who listens can hear it. Ian can feel it. After a tragic loss, he finally realizes what he wants most is a real relationship with the person behind the sultry, sensual voice.

These two have some a deep connection, a true fondness for each other. But Kerri has a weary spirit and a cautious heart. She has walls and will do whatever it takes to hold on to her independence. Ian is certain that everything he has ever wanted lies with Kerri and he’s willing to fight for what they could have. He wants her to give him her everything – her heart and soul. He engages her mind, warms her body and makes her feel wanted – something that she has been missing in her life. Though she wants and tries to keep the relationship on a physical level, it doesn’t take long for Ian to pierce Kerri’s heart and make her re-evaluate her stance on love and marriage.

This story is filled with sexy, fun moments, heartfelt angst and a past filled with pain and sadness. Kerri and Ian are two passionate people who meet by chance but build something amazing by choice. Great secondary characters make this story a sweet romance and I turned those pages until the wonderful end. Just an absolutely wonderful read!

A sexy stand-alone, full-length novel!

Radio personality Kerri McCree really likes sex. Talking about sex, that is . . .

Kerri knows firsthand that you can hide a lot behind a microphone. Although she’s earned a reputation for discussing every aspect of sex on her show, she’s never had to back it up . . . until a sexy mystery caller proves to be even more irresistible in person.

Ian Carlisle is immediately intrigued by the sultry voice he hears on the late night radio show, and it doesn’t take him long to arouse Kerri’s imagination with his dirty talk. Now he’s turning up the heat and seducing the rest of her. Their on-the-air chemistry sizzles and they heat up the airwaves, debating any and all provocative issues possible. As the ratings soar, so does the sexual tension.

But will Ian do when he discovers Kerri’s not the sex expert she professes to be?

Review – Running Into Love by Aurora Rose Reynolds

 

Running Into Love cover

 

Review graphic

Running Into Love was such a sweet and funny read! Aurora shows all her incredible talent in this first book of the Fluke My Life series. A wonderful strong leading lady and an off the charts sexy leading man headline this fantastic story!

I smiled and laughed and sighed from beginning to end. How could you not absolutely adore the totally accident prone Fawn Reed? From running with her eyes closed and knocking over an incredibly hot NYPD homicide detective that she feels an instant connection to only to find out that hottie is none other than her next door neighbor, Fawn’s life becomes a series of events that kept me turning the pages until I had completely devoured this story!

Levi Fremont may come off as the tough guy cop but he certainly has a soft spot for the little teacher next door with the totally stubborn dog. He has a crazy ex and an even crazier family that wants nothing more than to see him happy. Fawn certainly changes everything about his life – for the better. And don’t tell Aurora, but I think Levi is definitely a Mayson in disguise… or at least a distant cousin. This yummy dominant of a man has the Boom written all over him – NYC style!

Running Into Love is so full of feel great moments, gut busting clumsy laughs, and steamy chemistry between two total opposites who manage to find everything they need in each other. Fawn and Levi’s families and friends make this story such a wonderful distraction. Have no doubt Fawn’s family is just as crazy as Levi’s and they stole this book!

This is a wonderfully written story, such a happy swoony story! More please! Fantastic, ARR!

Five Fabulous Stars!

Fawn Reed has kissed one too many toads and has finally decided that Prince Charming doesn’t exist. After countless mishaps, mistakes, and unmitigated disasters on the dating scene, she’s decided to give up and move on with her life…solo.

Everything changes, however, after Fawn runs into Levi Fremont, a homicide detective new to New York City.

Dedication to the job has rendered Levi’s love life nonexistent—until he moves in next door to the free-spirited Fawn. After a series of comedic run-ins push them together, will they finally give in to the inevitable and realize—maybe—they are perfect for each other?

Review – Stud Finder by Lauren Blakely

STUD_FINDER_cover_Lauren Blakely

Stud Finder by Lauren Blakely

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Warning: You will get addicted to the DRUG that is Lauren Blakely’s writing!!!

Here’s how I read a Lauren Blakely book: First, I sometimes skip the blurb as I don’t even need to read it to know I’ll love whatever crack this author churns; I get high on it all! I proceed with zero caution, diving in, and then devouring as if I am out to get drunk, downing each word like a smooth shot of fine whiskey.

Stud Finder. I don’t need the cover or the blurb to lead me to read because HELLO HOT-AS-HELL TITLE! Off to find a stud! SOLD!!!

This love story is even more spectacular than its clever and self-combusting title. This love story is so SWOONY and SWEET. This love story—this Stud Finder—SWEPT ME AWAY!!!

I was so CHARMED by this flirty fairy tale … HOOK, LINE, and SINKER!!! Sink her…YES, I sank so hard into Stud Finder that I could not and did not stop reading until the end! PURE ADDICTION!!!

Once upon a time beautiful Princess Evie, could not find a prince because she was helping other princesses find their princes. This beautiful princess loved helping others find love but had given up on love for herself. Until she helps the very handsome Prince Dylan, her best friend’s brother, find a princess.

I SMILED at the flirty and witty banter between this hero and heroine. 

“C’mon, Evie. Go wild with me.”

The way he says those words are part-goad, part-flirt, and there’s something about him I can’t resist.

Stud finder RDL teaser 1

I LAUGHED at and LOVED Dylan’s obvious ogling and deliciously dirty mouth!!! 

I nearly whimpered at her downward dog in front of me. I am a dog as I stare at her ass.

I SWOONED and SMOLDERED as Stud Finder’s alpha in hot nerd packaging made me weak in the knees!!! One of my kryptonite story scenes is when the hero says, F-it, takes the risk, and shocks the heroine speechless with a kiss. When Dylan delivers this take-charge kiss, I WAS DONE!!! A hero who COMMANDS, cupping the heroine’s face, as he plants a sensual, full-body kiss on her is so FREAKIN’ FIRE-HOT and HEADY!!! I am still melting from this scene…JUST YES!!! 

He parts his lips to speak, then mutters, “Fuck it.” He cups my face in his hands and dips his mouth to mine.

Laugh-out-loud funny meets slow-burning love in Stud Finder, a fairy tale guaranteed to make you smile and swoon! Charming characters, combustible chemistry, imaginative and engaging writing, sugary sweetness, and a plot that pulls the reader in make Stud Finder the PERFECT FEEL-GOOD ROMANCE! I ADORED this SWOONY and HEART-HAPPY LOVE STORY! Stud Finder is a match made in romance heaven…the perfect find…the perfect fairytale!!!

“I want you to match me with you.”

Young couple in love, hugging on the street. Selective focus.

P.S. #TeamTeaAlways

💋💋💋💋💋 melt-worthy ‘perfect match’ kisses

Man seeking woman: Hot, rich, smart, witty, self-made multimillionaire Internet genius seeks classy, intelligent, sexy, fun-loving woman who’s interested in settling down and sharing all the good things.

There. Best. Ad. Ever.

I will absolutely find the woman of my dreams, someone who’ll love me for me. Even if my sister thinks I need help dating, I’m confident I can pull this off, courtesy of the great worldwide web.

Let me just hit the upload button right now…

*****

No. Just no. As a woman and a professional matchmaker, I can’t let Dylan Parker run this ad. He’s the catch of all catches. That’s why his sister has asked me to help her ridiculously good-looking, insanely rich, but socially clueless brother find a woman. As a broker of happily ever afters, I’m known as the Stud Finder since I make a great living pairing wildly successful women with men who won’t fleece them but will adore them. After all, what woman in her right mind wouldn’t fall in love with Dylan?

I mean, besides me. It totally won’t be me.

FB_IMG_1494244623114

What am I doing?

Dylan is my client’s brother.

Dylan is now my client.

I’m not interested in a match for myself. I’m not looking for love. I’m focused on work, and Dylan is my work.

The trouble is, my work turns me on more than I expected, and that’s for one elemental reason—I like him.

I like him so very much.

That’s why I jerk this conversation back to the purpose of these get-togethers—prepping him for his princess charming, whoever she may be.

I brush one palm against the other. “The big question is—are you ready for me to set you up on your first date? Or do you think the fall in yoga has set you back?” I wink.

“You think falling in yoga means I’m not ready to date?”

I laugh. Nervously. “Well, not entirely. But it did remind me what we talked about before we had tea. That we all have a bit of dork in us. So, I didn’t know if you wanted to walk through all the potential topics, moments, pitfalls, and so on.”

“Like a pre-date prep? Or maybe even a practice session?”

“Sure, we can practice now if you’d like,” I offer.

He doesn’t answer right away. When he does, he takes his time, like he’s making an offer. “Or maybe we can practice in a true date simulation.”

Tingles race over my shoulders. “Like a practice date?”

His eyes twinkle like stars. “I need a practice date badly. Can I take you on one? It would be so helpful to review everything. Make sure I’m ready.”

When he puts it like that… “Yes, of course.”

I want him to put his best foot forward. I didn’t say yes because I want to date him. I wouldn’t do that, even though when he walks away, all I can think is how on earth did I wind up with a pitter-pattering heart for a man I’m handing off to another woman?

REVIEW ~ LOVE PROFOUND By KELLY ELLIOTT 


There are books that you start reading and you just know will consume you, steal your breath, make your heart pound, cry big fat ugly tears, soothe your heart then make you cry all over again with sheer happiness. Well Ms Elliott you have done each and every one of those things to me with this book, I’m not sure what to do with myself. 
The second instalment in the Cowboys and angels series and lord have mercy do they just keep getting better, The Parker family have stole a forever piece of my heart, I could honestly read about them all day. Amelia may be the baby of the family but that girl has sass and determination along with the finest. Wade is a character that right from the start you just need to Love. The story flows with effortless perfection, consuming you and everything around you stands still, nothing else matters, you don’t even realise your sat holding your breath at times or how deep you have fallen into the story until the tears start to roll down you face. 
A 5 star and keep on going stars. 

 

I write about love, but I’ve never experienced it. Sure, I’ve been with guys that I cared about. Even thought I found ‘the one’. He turned out to be the frog and not the prince.

 

A few Frank Sinatra songs and a wildly handsome cowboy who calls me Darlin’, will have me second guessing everything I ever thought I knew about love.

 

Does happily ever after really exist…or is it only something I write about in books?

 

Love Profound is book two in the Cowboys and Angels series.

Review – Wicked Dirty by J. Kenner

WickedDirty_Ecover_FINAL

Wicked Dirty by J. Kenner

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

From my years of devouring this amazing author’s work, I’ve learned several things: A J. Kenner romance is not a story but a SHEER SEDUCTION! As such, this writer’s words always make me sink into her stories. I will ALWAYS ADORE and FOREVER DEVOUR the Starks and their empire of friends and family. I’m devoted to this Stark network of which I’m hopelessly in love.

J. Kenner best summarizes the meaning of the Stark family—and all who cross their path—in her latest sensation, Wicked Dirty:

Honestly, these people are a bit like a puzzle, their lives crossing and overlapping and all of it woven together in a tapestry of friendship and family.

Wicked Dirty CLAIMED and CONSUMED every ounce of me from the very first page. Mind racing. Pulse pounding. Breaths bated. Feels flowing. Eyes wide in anticipation. Heart beating out of my chest. I felt the current of Wicked Dirty flow through me. I was DRUNK on this book that was my fine whiskey, so smooth and spectacular, and could not get enough of this Wicked Dirty drink.

A broken hero and heroine collide, a combustion of chemistry, where barriers are broken and trust is on the line. I LOVED the hero, Lyle, and the heroine, Sugar, both broken and beautiful. 

He touched me—and despite all my defenses, I fell.

_Wd2.1

Beautiful Sugar is sweet like her name, a strong and sassy heroine who I quickly admired. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Sugar wasn’t looking for a broken Prince Charming, Lyle, to rescue her, but the dark knight wasn’t looking for a damsel either.

Lyle is tall, built, and utterly gorgeous. I LOVED Lyle along with his dirty-talking mouth and huge heart! A Hollywood actor, Lyle, is used to disguising himself, wearing an acting mask like a safety shield.

Until one woman sees beneath the mask…

I feel so twisted up inside. Like I can feel his pain—and there’s so damn much of it.

One woman tests his limits…

“What do I want?”

He traces his fingertip along the neckline of the bodice, making me shiver.

“Isn’t that a loaded question? So much. But I can’t have any of it.”

One woman makes him want and feel…

“I want you, Sugar…I want to lose myself inside your heat, and I want to make you come like you never have before.”

_HimTab

HOLY HOT!!! These deliciously dirty words made me WANTON!

Reality and fantasy collide, and it may be the end for the broken prince and princess….

We’re walking a very thin line, he and I. And I’m not at all sure where pretending ends and reality begins.

Wicked Dirty by Julie Kenner wasn’t quite what I expected: it was SO MUCH MORE!!! This love story thoroughly SEDUCED my body, heart, and soul. I shivered in excitement and smoldered in need, as Wicked Dirty made me BREATHLESS! This book BUZZES with energy, as this is a romance YOU’LL FEEL with each seductive word.

Wicked Dirty is hot, heady, heart-pounding pleasure!!! This story is a sensual slow burn that blazed though me everywhere! I was ENRAPTURED with every enticing word. Wicked Dirty is a diamond that is a little dirty at first glance but oh so FLAWLESS!!! INTENSITY and INTOXICATION merge with PASSION and PLEASURE in Wicked Dirty, a ROMANTIC RUSH you won’t want to end.

One of my new favorites by J. Kenner…PURE PERFECTION!!!

💋💋💋💋💋 sensual, soulful, and seductive kisses

Sometimes bad isn’t good enough…

On the outside, Lyle Tarpin is a clean-cut Hollywood actor whose star is on the rise. Inside, he’s battling his own demons, shunning relationships and finding solace in the arms of a string of anonymous women paid very well for their discretion.

But when he’s photographed in a compromising position by an over-eager reporter, the only way to save his career is to say that the woman he was with is his fiancée. And now Lyle has to play a very public game with the only woman who’s ever managed to get under his skin.

Struggling waitress Sugar Laine agrees to spend one night with Lyle—but only because she’s desperate to save her family home. She never expects that a night of passion will turn into a pretend engagement … or that the heat between them will blossom into love.

But sometimes love has a price.

And now the only question is—can Lyle and Sugar afford to pay it?

My blood pounds through my body, my heart beating so hard that I can feel the pressure not only against my ribs, but against the wall behind me. My lips are parted, my breath coming in shaky gasps.

He’s only inches away, so close I could reach out and touch that famous, gorgeous face. His eyes, as deep and blue as the summer sky, roam over me. He eases closer, moving slowly, his face reflecting a hunger that sends shivers through me.

Once again, my mind conjures the image of a hungry wolf. Only now I’m thinking that maybe getting eaten wouldn’t be so bad after all.

Besides, I’m here. Might as well enjoy it.

Then, of course, I remember exactly what it is.

Oh, God.

His fingertip brushes my forehead, and I almost jump out of my skin. I meet his eyes, see something that looks like irritation, and want to kick myself. I need to focus, dammit.

“You were somewhere else.” He speaks flatly, as if he’s working to keep all emotion out.

I shake my head, conjuring a lie. “I’m right here.” And then, because I’ve seen movies with call girls, I put my hand flat on his chest, trying to seem seductive. He’s wearing a gray T-shirt, and I can feel his heart beating beneath the planes of his muscled chest.

I read somewhere that he was getting in shape to play a superhero in an upcoming movie. And kudos to whoever’s orchestrating that transformation, because this guy is rock solid.

He’s still looking at me, and I fist my hand in the material of his shirt, needing an anchor against the storm of emotion I see playing out on his face. Desire. Hunger. Longing. Regret.

And pain. I see so much damn pain that I have to fight the urge to cup my palm against his cheek and tell him that whatever it is, it’s going to be okay.

Instead, I simply whisper, “Lyle?”

I’m not sure if it was the wrong thing or the right thing to say, but I know that it was unexpected. And before I can apologize or cover or say anything else at all, he is on me. One hand at my throat, the other hard on my breast. I’m pinned against the wall, helpless, as he claims my mouth again. Wildly. Brutally.

I try to think what I’m supposed to do—try to respond. But I’m trapped. I’m not Sugar. I’m not Laine. I’m not anyone. This isn’t about sex. It’s about pain and need and that storm of horrors I saw on his face. I might as well not even be here. And as his hand squeezes tight on my breast—as his mouth clashes so hard against mine that he draws blood—my only thought is that I shouldn’t have come at all. That this was stupid. Foolish. And that this night is going to leave me scarred.

I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to be what he wants. A warm body. An anonymous female.

But I can’t do it. I can’t do it at all.

All I can be is me. A woman desperate enough to have sex for money. A girl trying anything and everything to save her house. To protect her family’s memory.

I can be that girl.

But I can’t be nothing. I can’t be no one.

And as his hand tightens in my hair—as he kisses me violently—as his body presses hard against mine and I feel the steel of his erection—I know that I’ve made a terrible, horrible, awful mistake.

Stop!

Though known primarily for her award-winning and international bestselling erotic romances (including the Stark and Most Wanted series) that have reached as high as #2 on the New York Times bestseller list, JK has been writing full time for over a decade in a variety of genres including paranormal and contemporary romance, “chicklit” suspense, urban fantasy,  and paranormal mommy lit.

JK has been praised by Publishers Weekly as an author with a “flair for dialogue and eccentric characterizations” and by RT Bookclub for having “cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them.” A five time finalist for Romance Writers of America’s prestigious RITA award, JK took home the first RITA trophy awarded in the category of erotic romance in 2014 for her novel, Claim Me (book 2 of her Stark Trilogy). Her Demon Hunting Soccer Mom series (as Julie Kenner) is currently in development with AwesomenessTV/Awestruck.

Her books have sold over three million  copies and are published in over twenty languages.

In her previous career as an attorney, JK worked as a clerk on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, and practiced primarily civil, entertainment and First Amendment litigation in Los Angeles and Irvine, California, as well as in Austin, Texas.  She currently lives in Central Texas, with her husband, two daughters, and two rather spastic cats.

Review – Rock Me by Carly Phillips

Rock Me cover

Review graphic

Oh, Carly’s books just make me HAPPY!

I’m a such a sucker for second chance romance. This was perfect and introduced to another set of fantastic characters in this new series. This series is going to burn, burn, burn the pages if Ben Hollander and Summer Michelle are any indication of what is coming!

Ben and Summer met when he worked security for the TV musical competition that Summer was a contestant for. Beautiful, talented and just down to Earth, Ben finds himself falling for the small town girl and Summer certainly fills the same. Still petty jealousies from another contestant find Summer and Ben’s relationship outed and Ben finds himself without a job. As much as she wants Ben and is willing to leave the competition to be with him, Summer wants a shot at the career she has always dreamed of. Ben leaves and tries to find a way to put his past behind him.

But the past is never far behind.

When Summer begins receiving death threats while on a promotional tour, Ben finds himself face to face with the beautiful star that broke his heart but still has it in her hands. He’s determined to keep to business and keep her safe. Nothing more. Let the fireworks begin! Oh, Ben and Summer are so good together! No matter how much they want to keep things professional between them, there’s no fighting chemistry between these two. There’s also no way to deny just how much danger Summer is in.

This was sexy and fun! A great read and a wonderful beginning to another amazing series. After getting a brief glimpse into the group of bodyguards that Ben calls family, this series is certainly one we don’t want to miss.

Fantastic, Carly!

Review – Dear Bridget, I Want You by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland

Dear Bridget, I Want You by Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland.


Mannnn, why must Penelope Ward & Vi Keeland be SO FREAKING GOOD? I mean I’m legit running out of good things to say about these two and the magic they write together! Like, this book, features a HOT British Dr who is pure SIN & SWOON! I can’t even!!

In all honesty, I am actually stuck on what to say. I just want to shout that this book was amazing and beautiful and perfect and awesome and everything. Because it was. It was all that and more.  

The writing was seamless. The story line, perfection. The connection of the characters was instant and intense and so believable. I was addicted from beginning to end and devoured it in one sitting. 

Penelope & Vi are unstoppable! I adore them together and apart. Never stop writing ladies, NEVER. #thisbritlovedyourbrit ❤



From the New York Times Bestselling authors of Stuck-Up Suit and Mister Moneybags, comes a sexy new standalone novel.

Dear Bridget,

I’m writing this letter because it’s highly doubtful I’ll ever garner the courage to say this to your face. 

So, here goes.

We’re totally wrong for each other. You’re the proper single mum with a good head on your shoulders. I’m just the carefree British doctor passing through town and temporarily living in your converted garage until I head back to England.

But here’s the thing… for some bloody reason, I can’t stop thinking about you in very inappropriate ways. 

I want you.

The only reason I’m even admitting all of this to you right now is because I don’t believe it’s one-sided. I notice your eyes when you look at me, too. And as crass as I appear when we’re joking around about sex, my attraction to you is not a joke. 

So, what’s the purpose of this note? I guess it’s a reminder that we’re adults, that sex is healthy and natural, and that you can find me just through the door past the kitchen. More specifically, it’s to let you know that I’m leaving said door cracked open from now on in case you’d like to visit me in the middle of the night sometime. 

No questions asked. 

Think about it. 

Or don’t. 

Whatever you choose.

It’s doubtful I’ll even end up sliding this letter under your door anyway. 

–Simon

Review graphic

This incredible story is one that shook me. It is a story about regret, loss and a grief that encompasses every aspect of life and steals its joy. This is a story of a man who many of thought is a total jerk, a lost cause. Some have even called him a cheater. Reading Logan’s story and then re-reading in parts, I see Logan as a man who is deeply devastated, riddled with guilt and trying everything he can to cope. Even if that means he beds and leaves, drinks to dangerous levels, treats everyone around him with contempt and keeps people at a safe distance.

Grief has no rhyme or reason. It has no timetable. There’s no manual to follow to ease the unbearable sadness. This story is Logan’s way to speak his pain. His way is destructive, cruel to those who care for him. Shannon was the love of his life and their parting was not pleasant. Meeting Hannah finally is a step toward healing his heart and mending his soul. After two years, he finally feels something and in Hannah, he finds a kindred spirit because she has been grieving, too.

Hannah has suffered the loss of not only her brother but the loss of a relationship that she felt would help her move forward. Graduating from college, moving away from a home filled with memories and starting over is just what she needs. Meeting Logan and connecting with him changes her life in such a short period of time. She accepts that Logan is in pain, that he’s not ready to move on but she knows that she wants him and that she wants to be a part of his life. Still, how much can one person take when you’re constantly being pushed away? Still Hannah is a fighter.

Breathing You In is filled with such emotionally riveting moments, powerful realizations and steamy chemistry. When I read the last pages, I had tears running down my face. S gave readers so much in this story, from soaring highs to heartbreaking lows. I saw Logan’s triumphs as well as his setbacks. I felt Hannah’s confusion and her love for this tremendously wonderful but complicated man.

I loved every single moment. Well done, S!

Tragedy brings them together.

Life may tear them apart.

Two years after losing my wife and unborn child, I’m at rock bottom. I blanket my life with addictions to ease the pain.

Until life takes me on a detour, guiding me for a path I never expected.

Meeting Hannah Harris and those enticing deep emerald eyes makes the darkness shimmer and the oxygen in my lungs flow whenever she’s near me. When I’m with her, everything falls easily into place and she relieves the pain, making it easy to live. I’m clinging on to her for solace and salvation.

But how do I find a way to breathe in a new life and love while learning how to exhale the agony of my past?

Review – Drunk On You by Harper Sloan

Pageflex Persona [document: PRS0000039_00005]

Review graphic

C’est un des livres plus chauds de l’année et donc la peine d’attendre! Oh, mon cœur!

Shane Kingston has to be one of Harper’s sexiest leading men. Stripper turned business partner, occassional bartender and spotlight dancer. The man is seriously alpha, a bit of a control freak and what he wants – has always wanted – is Nikki Clark. Only two things stand in the way, or rather two people. That would be their exes Lacey and Seth. These two just can’t seem to let go more than a year after the break ups. Nikki is ready to move on, let loose and learn to have fun. Shane wants to move on, let loose and have fun with Nikki. They’ve always been attracted to each other. Now they don’t have to deny what they want. After one SERIOUSLY sexy dance at Dirty Dog, these two make a deal that’s mutually beneficial and kills two birds with one stone. They get rid of their exes and thoroughly enjoy each others company. A fake relationship for the public but can that really work in private when these two have such a long standing burning attraction?

It’s hard not to love Nikki. She’s a dedicated teacher and friend. She’s beloved by all the Corps Security families and is seen as one of their own. When she gives, she gives everything. There’s no way that Shane can resist his draw to Nikki with her strong independent streak and her need to please and care for those that she loves. She is the perfect submissive compliment to his dominant nature. After a horrible breakup, Nikki wants to enjoy her life and part of that is indulging her needs with the dirty French talking, sexy hips wiggling bartender. It doesn’t take long for these two to see that what they have isn’t just a simply friendship with some great times burning the sheets. This is more and so much deeper than either expected with a lot more to lose. Suddenly what’s supposed to be fake becomes very real.

Insecurities arise and miscommunication takes its toll not only on Shane and Nikki but on their other friendships as well. Shane is a deep well of secrets and past hurts that demand that he have total control in all areas of his life. But what happens when once, just once, he lets it all go? Can Nikki give everything to Shane and finally have all that she’s ever wanted?

I finished Drunk On You with a smile on my face and immediately flipped back to read the ending another time. Then I flipped back to other scenes in the book that made me want more of Shane’s dominating personality and Nikki’s need for him. This trip to Hope Town has been my favorite so far. This book has a mix of everything that has made Harper one of my favorite go to authors – steamy sexy scenes, sweet heartwarming romance, a leading man that wears his alpha so well and a leading woman who I just had to cheer on as she fought for and then got her man. It was amazing to have Nate and Ember back as they supported their best friends in finding their own happy ending. Let’s not forget Shane’s little sister, Liberty. She’s a female version of her brother, strong willed and has deep hurts. I’m so excited to read her story on my next visit to Hope Town.

We may have been disappointed that we didn’t get this book earlier this year, but it was definitely worth the wait. My hat’s off to Harper and the absolutely divine Shane Kingston! Don’t miss this one. FANTASTIC, Harper!

Five Starboy and Mon Colibri Stars!

It was supposed to be fun.
A mutual use of each other’s bodies.
To be a ruse to the world around us.
I wanted to be free from my ex, and he wanted to escape his.

One drunken night turned a joke into a life-changing moment.
He warned me not to fall for him, and I should’ve listened.

He intoxicated me.
He made me crave him.
He ruined me.
In the end, I’ll never be the same.
