Dear Goddess, I can’t believe I survived this novel!!! Whatever you do don’t believe the silly title or silly blurbs on the cover. The truth is this novel is heart-wrenching agony to read. Plain and simple.

Jaci and Cam grew up in a small town in Oklahoma. They have loved each other since she was 10 and he was 15, and he began rescuing her from the town bullies. But terrible, terrible things happened to Cam for the next three years. Things that killed a large part of his heart and soul. Jaci run...more

I was looking so forward to reading this book and I was not disappointed. Cameron Falladay is in love with Jaci Wright. He also likes to share his women with his twin brother Chase. Cameron is the victim of a terrible past that he has not shared with anyone. Throughout the book you can feel his pain. Jaci also had something horrible happen to her which she is not sharing with the twins. This book has romance, suspense and tender, emotional moments. Of course it also has alot of hot sex. Very ste...more

Hmmm…I really enjoyed it, but I definitely had my moments of frustration. Jaci has had her eye on Cam Falladay since she was a pre-pubescent girl. He was 15 and hurting, and it would be years until she learned the awful magnitude of why, but she did the best she could as a young girl and always made Cam smile. As Jaci began to mature and fill out, Cam noticed and finally decided to act on his feelings for her while on leave from duty. He drags her away to his place, things get hot and heavy,..an...more

I love the background for the "Wicked..." novels. The Club outside Washington D.C. is a long-standing and extremely private organization. Its members share a certain notoriety that comes from being Fortune 500 CEOs, congressmen, and other famous movers and shakers. Its members also share the need to engage in sexual ménage activities with their female lovers/wives. Therein the extreme secrecy attached to The Club. Members sign confidentiality agreements and The Club has a ‘punitive committee’ co...more

This book starts out very hot, and that's were you think it is going right...well it does stay hot, but Cam is hiding a very dark secret and Jaci spends the whole book trying to break through to his heart.It does have a HEA ending and is worth the read.

This book is erotica, so stop reading if that's not your thing.

This book was horribly written and edited. Really, the publisher should be ashamed and should fire the editor. What happened? Did she lose her red pen? Maybe she was angry with her employer and sent the manuscript through with nothing but proofreading? I don't know, but the end result is an unbelievably bad novel.

For one, the author seems to have a short list of words that she tried to work into nearly every paragraph as many times a...more

Summary from NYTimes: "Jaci Wright has been running from the Falladay twins, Chase and Cam, for seven years now. Fears of the desires they arouse in her, and the knowledge of the relationship they wanted with her, spurred her to run, to find a life that kept her traveling the globe and out of their reach.

But now life has come full circle. A new job has placed Jaci in the Sinclair mansion with Chase and Cam. And they're tired of waiting. It's hard enough to face accepting a relationship with two...more

Jaci e Cam si conoscono da quando erano poco più che ragazzini e vivevano in un piccolo paese dell'Oklahoma. All'epoca, il padre di lei le aveva intimato di tenersi alla larga dai gemelli Falladay, Cam e Chase, per via della pessima reputazione di seduttori che aleggiava intorno a loro. E "tenersi alla larga" è proprio ciò che Jaci tenta di fare, benché in realtà si senta fortemente attratta da Cam. Il destino separa le vite dei tre ragazzi: Chase e Cameron si arruolano nell'esercito e Jaci, div...more

Perché due fratelli is megl' che one!

Credo di aver raggiunto il punto di saturazione. Basta erotici, basta piselli sventolanti, basta paperelle bagnate e ormoni impazziti. Basta.

There's more to this book than meets the eye. Three and a half stars, but don't let the synopsis fool you.

This one's a bit more lust-driven than my taste for erotica usually runs, but there's such a powerful story here that I don't want to discredit the book just because it isn't particularly suited to me. Your heart will ache for Cameron Falladay, even if you aren't certain til late in the book what exactly he endured as a teenager, and though there is graphic sex in the book, the author does a...more

Jaci has been good friends with twins Cam and Chase for awhile. She has been in love with Cam since she was 13 and he was 18.



"Wait on me, Cam. I'll grow up and I'll take all the bad things away"


Eight years later Jaci is hoping to see Cam at a party. Now that she is 21 he will not be making her go home like he use to. Or she thought. Cam is 26 now and has wanted Jaci for as long as he can remember. He wants to keep her safe and protected from other guys that come to these parties. This is when t...more

I don't know why, but for some reason when I got to the big reveal, I feel as though the storyline was parallel to another book, though I can't for the life of me remember which.

Anyway, For the most part I very much liked this story; I love the torchered heroes. However, a few things prevented me from ranking any more than 3 stars (3.5 if I could have) *note some parts of spoiler are graphic and not for the faint of heart of underage!*

(view spoiler)[I felt that some of the descriptions of the...more

Lora Leigh is a favorite author of mine. No one writes a sex scene like her. She gives you a front seat into the sexual happenings of the characters. She usually matches the sex scenes with an equally scorching story.

What kept this book from being her usual 4 - 5 star novel:

1. Ms Leigh lost me when a 28 year old virgin involves herself in a menage. Her first penetration is anal without prep. Then minutes later she gets penetrated vaginally without prep. This double dicking is done without so muc...more

I have nothing against threesomes or foursomes or fivesomes but I don't get why it's so "romantic" in books to have the main girl have sex with two men when she obviously loved only one of them. I get it if she had love both of them in terms of "I can't live without you-you both complete me" and not in a "You're both hot and you guys are a package deal" kind of way and she ends up with both twins at the end which is unlikely but hey, it's a twist.

I think it's worse since I knew the chick glance...more

Honestly, I would have liked to give this book 2 and a half stars, but, since I'm pretty sure that's impossible I decided to give it what it deserves, instead of rounding up. This book is really nice, but to me, it's like all they ever do is have sex. I mean, the first time, I was like "okay, that was long, but it was okay." So I continued to read. What I found out, and what I dislike, is that the story is based on Jaci and Cam (and sometimes Chase) having sex. And then Jaci getting mad because...more

I picked this and the book that follows not realizing (again) how far into the series this book is. I did the same damn thing with her Breed series. Oh well, it doesn't really affect the reading pleasure as each book could stand alone. So here we go:

From the beginning this book throws you right into naughty with a menag between our heroine Jaci and twin brothers Cam and Chase that she's known since childhood. The first time they try this menag - Jaci doesn't realize the boys are a package deal a...more

3.5 stars

My first read by Lora Leigh.

okay so I did not see THAT coming... I still don't get why people likes threesomes or sharing your lover. Fine, it'll be more pleasurable for the female but shouldn't the POSSESIVENESS override the sharing?

To be fair, it is WAY better narrated than Haven of Obedience . There's emotional turmoils and inner struggles going on,
but really,
the males are just TOO masculine and TOO: I'm a man, I protect and I have my pride etc...
Cam:

This is the first of the Falladay Twins books. I love these guys and I really wish that Ms. Leigh had let them have a permanent menage. I think it would have gone a long way to healing both men. So this is Cam's book. He has had a very difficult life and he has survived all the things that have happened to him. He is hurt and angry and on the verge of a recklessness that has his brother Chase worried. When Jaci Wright shows up in Cam's life again things begin to heal. Jaci bring love and laughte...more

Wow! If I were to compare this to fire, I'd say it'll take a lot to extinguish the flames. This is one hell of a scorching novel (pun intended). I got more than I bargained for. Since this is an erotic fiction, I'd have to comment on the sex first. Almost every chapter has them, they're never boring, they're always creative and intense; and just with one look or touch, passion arises until they explode to ecstasy. 5 stars for the sex!

But wait, there's more! For those of you who're looking for a...more

I checked this book out following a conversation about erotic fiction with a fellow librarian. I took this title, she took another and we later compared. We concurred on the following:
a) the format is the same as any other romance, it seems as if the lovers are destined for eachother but a lot of drama is in the way...and of course there is a very mean person at the peak of the drama
b) the language is very strong during intimate scenes

In regard to this particular title:

I’m a really big fan of Lora Leigh and have been reading her books for years but unfortunately they seem to be running together for me. In Wicked Pleasure, part of the Bound Hearts series, Jaci has been running from twins Cam and Chase for over seven years after one night of passion but confusion. Throughout the years, they have all avoided each other but a job opportunity brings Jaci back to the brothers. Jaci has loved Cam but he won’t open his heart because of shame he experience in his child...more

I don’t know what to say about this book. Someone else commented it was poorly edited and I have to agree with that. It was difficult to read, the language didn’t flow. I had to re-read some parts, and with the two male characters (Cam and Chase), having such similar names you lose track of who is doing what in the sex scenes - LOL, I think there were definitely some extra body parts being flung about.

There was quite a bit of a certain Act that is not in my preferred repertoire, so that may have...more

This book was good, but not entirely what I expected. Jaci and Cam have been in love with each other forever, so I expected things to kind of fall into place when they were reunited. Instead, while there was a lot of hot sex, there were too many secrets and a lot of emotional frustration. Both were hiding past traumatic experiences that they both stubbornly refused to tell one another. Eventually everything is resolved and they both get their HEA, but it was definitely a long, emotional ride. Th...more

These two books are companion pieces and should be read in order or you'll be having several "huh?" moments with the plot in the second book. Excellent reads: suspenseful action, likable characters [it's so much fun to watch the heroes try to avoid 'commitment' - when they are already committed body and soul:] and definitely hot sex scenes.

You do no have to read the other books before these - the characters do make appearances and it would enrich your reading t...more

I wanted to like this book more than I ended up liking it. It has very hot sex scenes which become very repetitive but then again how many ways can you do it. Cam and Jaci are keeping secrets from each other, but unlike other books, his secrets don't really need to see the light of day. Her secret, she should tell everyone she meets. The secret bad person was a surprise but not believable. The protagonists somehow she wants to show as not really bad people but that too isn't believable. I like t...more

Lora Leigh lives in the rolling hills of Kentucky, often found absorbing the ambience of this peaceful setting. She dreams in bright, vivid images of the characters intent on taking over her writing life, and fights a constant battle to put them on the hard drive of her computer before they can disappear as fast as they appeared. Lora’s family, and her writing life co-exist, if not in harmony, in...more
