Eleanor is introduced to Nicolas, her new cousin by marriage, when she's only nine years old. Eleanor looks at the skinny kid, who's two years younger, and thinks nothing of him until her mom asks that she give the boy a kiss.
Eleanor so not wants to kiss Nicolas, she thinks it is the most disgusting thing ever. The thing is her mom doesn't want excuses, she wants the boy to feel welcome. So, Eleanor leans in to kiss him. Just when she's about to touch her lips to his cheek, the skinny boy turns his head and meets her lips with his.
Nicolas smiles and even winks at her. Eleanor is disgusted by the kiss, how can she not be? She's only a kid and has never kissed a boy on the lips! However, fifteen years go by and the memory of that stolen kiss is still in her mind, but she no longer feels disgusted by it. No, she feels something else.
Nicolas is back from the Army and just in time to save her from his stepfather's (her uncle) selfish plans. Like her, he's never forgotten the kiss, and it turns out he's always loved her.
Throughout the years their relationship has been one of love and hate, but no more. He is back, and he wants to help her NOT marry any of the men his evil stepfather has lined up for her.
Nicolas is bothered by the way Eleanor is now reacting to things, he's upset she's no longer the feisty woman he knows she is. He doesn't rest until he makes her see what she's doing and makes her understand why she needs to stand up for herself again, like she always has.
In their interactions, their bond only grows stronger until they both are forced to admit their love for each other.

This is a sweet historical/regency romance. Both the hero and the heroine are in their early twenties. I read a lot of historical romances and the one thing I picked up on in this is the way Erin Knightley really keeps to the historical tone in the dialogue. This may not make sense to many, but it does to me in thinking of how the other historicals/regencies I've read, read. Anyway, I thought that was actually refreshing. (less)

I love historical romances, especially if there is some spice in them and for some reason (I don't know what), I'd thought this one would have lots of it. Well, it didn't.
It doesn't matter anyway, it is still a good story. I just wonder how good it would've been had it been a full length novel.
Isabella grew up in a convent, the sisters taught her all there was to being the perfect wife, little do they know becoming the perfect wife isn't even on her list. Running away as fast and as far as she can is the only thought on her mind. The one thing Isabelle never counts on is stumbling upon the man she is running away from.
Javi doesn't care for marriage, in fact, he's running just the opposite direction. He has more important matters at hand, such as: going to Mexico...than marrying his bethrothed. Someone he's never met! Then, along comes a woman in the middle of the woods whom tempts him with every little thing she does. To his surprise, the woman happens to be the one he left at the altar, except he didn't, because truth be told, neither one of them ever intended to show up.
Bound to be a Bride is a fast paced historical romance with a bit of humor and a dash of spice.(less)

This book reminds me of Sons of Anarchy in some ways. Own the Wind is about a motorcycle club, per se, called Chaos. They have what they call brothers, lieutenants, and more, depending on how long each of the men has been with the club and what each of them has done to pay their due and deserve a higher ranking and the like.
That is where Shy Cage comes in [swoon]. He was a good boy turned bad and turned good back around again when he joins Chaos. He's been with Chaos for a while and all the men respect him, he's paid his dues, and he's moving up in their ranks.
The men always look out for each other and their families in sort of a "one for all and all for one" type thing. Whenever anyone is in trouble, whoever is closer (geographically at times) to the one in trouble gets called to go "rescue" him/her. And that is the case with Shy and Tabitha.
Tabitha is his friend's daughter, well, not just his friend. I mean, Tabby's dad is the "Head" of Chaos and no one messes with him or those who are his. Anyway, Tabby is in trouble and needs help and the one who can reach her faster than anyone else is Shy.
Shy doesn't like that he has to leave his two naked companions to go rescue Tabby as he's sure she deserves whatever trouble she is in, but he goes anyway. Tabby is used to getting herself in trouble and Shy has had it. He wants to teach her a lesson so that she decides to walk on the straight and narrow and no longer call trouble to herself.
The lesson Shy teaches her shakes up Tabby in a way that makes way mad at him. But before she leaves, she kisses him then dissappears for good.
That kiss remains in Shy's mind for months and months, actually a few years is more like it. Shy misses seeing her, he knows she's around but the darn woman will not set foot at the Compound for anything. She no longer joins any of the get togethers the men host, she's really just gone invisible.
Things happen, they cross paths on and off but no long enough for Shy to be able to ask Tabby what's been bothering her on years on end. Then, Tabby is about to get married when something awful happens and as destiny would have it, the two come together and rekindle their friendship.
Through their friendship their relationship grows, they not only discover things within themselves but also realize the feelings they've always had for each other. But not one of the two wants to take the first step because if one of them does and the other one doesn't feel the same way, then things would just be, um, AWKWARD.
Of course that only lasts until the moment they have a fight, Tabby gives him a cold shoulder and stops talking to him. Then, Shy discovers she's ready to leave but he won't have it. The time has come, and shine or rain she's gonna listen to what he has to say, which isn't much but short of: WTF are you doing and where are you going, and you're not leaving. Then, he grabs her and plants a kiss that makes her curl her toes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Own the Wind is such an AWESOME read! I mean, I personally wouldn't let a man talk to me the way Shy talks to Tabby some times, I just wouldn't put up with it. BUT, he's all tough, don't give me this kinda shit type of guy, and so, so, sweet and loving (in his own way mind you) that I cheered for him each time. This story is one of those where the reader is taken through each of the steps/levels as Shy and Tabby build their relationship, that it feels too real to be fiction. But, yes, it is fiction.
Shy is protective of Tabby but doesn't get in her way of her being her. In fact, Shy wants Tabby to be herself and not pretend to be something she isn't, which is what she did with her ex fiance, though she was happy and loved him.
Shy wants Tabby to trust him, to be honest, open with him. He doesn't know where the heck he's going, and he tells her that, but the one thing he's sure of is that he wants to ride the way of life with her and discover where they're going together.
Tabby has trouble at first in letting go and understanding when she needs to stand up to Shy and when she shouldn't. There is this thing about "the woman is a reflection of her man" in the club and the last thing she wants is to embarrass him. Then again, don't get me wrong. It isn't anything like being a pushover or not being able to voice her opinion loud and openly, it is more about this sorta creed and respect for each other. Tabby isn't a timid young woman, she's very sure of herself and of what she wants, but like everyone else, she struggles with the things that they go through as their relationship grows until she reaches the point of being okay with who and what they are and where they're going. Their love for each other is stronger than anything in this world, and they prove that when everyone, including her dad, turns their back on them for keeping their relationship secret per her request.
I love, love, love this story and I'm looking forward not only to reading book two in these series but reading all of Kristen Ashley's books. (less)

It would've made for a wonderful full length novel, regardless it was a pretty good read.
Eliza is running away in the middle of the night when she stumbles upon the new owner of the horse she's about to steal/borrow. The hard headed man won't let her go, she offers to pay for the horse but he won't take her money. She is frustrated and given that the handsome stranger won't help her and every minute she spends with him is a minute lost, she decides to walk to her final destination. That is, if she can get out of the stables.
Colin doesn't believe a word she says and thinks her a thief. Soon after she explains she is simply borrowing his horse, he changes his mind and thinks she's a spoiled young woman into theatrics. He still doesn't believe a word that comes out of her mouth, and plans to return her to her family as soon as he can get her to tell him who she is and where she lives, which she doesn't offer up too easily, no matter his threats.
The attraction for each other is quite strong and in a matter of one night many naughty things happen in bed and in the closet. Come daylight Colin sets out to find out who the witty woman locked up in his closet is in the hope that he can still return it to her family. God knows he doesn't want to marry again, if only his body listened to reason. When he finds out Eliza's claims weren't that off, he changes his mind and comes up with a plan to keep her if she'd have him.
This was a short, funny, sweet, and at times steamy short read. I very much enjoyed it. (less)

This is another story in the series SEALs on Fire. I've read most of them, I think I may just have two more to read, but from all of the ones I've read, this is one of my favorite ones.
Ghost and his comrades are in town for a short break after a mission in the Middle East. He doesn't know how long he has to relax but plans to make the best of it. Like his other friends, he plans to have a good time both in and out of bed. The only thing is: he must see to a close friend first. As soon as he has dinner with her and bids her adieu he plans to join the rest of his friends at the bar and pick up any woman who wants to go home with him, no promises asked.
What he doesn't expect is for Sadie to look as good as she does. He's always had a thing for her but would never act on it because Sadie is a dear friend, for starters. Then, he feels she deserves someone better than him, someone that can give her what he can't promise her.
Sadie has had it. She's always had Ghost's attention but not the way she wants it. She wants to taste this man, she wants to know what is like to kiss him, be in his arms, she wants him. She no longer is the little girl she once was and it is now or never. So without a second thought, she kisses him. He can push her away, or he can give her the night she's dreamed of. To her surprise, Ghost doesn't push her away. Instead, he opens up and demands she give him more than she offers, consequences be damned.
I LOVED this story. The way Regina describes the characters' actions is just so darn real, it made think of...well...um, yeah. Anyway, in my opinion this is thus far the best story in these series. I thoroughly enjoyed it and look forward to read more of Regina's work. (less)

She's known MJ all her life. They grew up together and the unfortunate tricks life has thrown their way has brought them together.
Maddie is a few years older than MJ, and growing up MJ always saw her as a sister until one day Maddie decided that wasn't enough. Since, MJ hasn't been able to live without Maddie. She is everything to him. The same is true for Maddie. MJ is the man of her life but there are too many secrets surrounding him that are keeping her away from him.
Maddie was forced to leave his side and MJ can't understand why. The problem now is: she is back and MJ wants answers. He doesn't know if he can forgive her for walking out on him and the promises she made him almost two years ago.
Maddie knows being close to MJ is no good, not with the threats his grandfather has made to her if she doesn't leave again. Then, there is the almost fiance and the engagement ring she's been wearing in a necklace. She loves MJ, but with him comes too much trouble and she isn't sure about any happiness. Then there is Talan and the security he can provide for her. Last, there is her heart and what it tells her to do.
~~~~~~~~ This was an emotional roller coaster. A lot of secrets surrounding the main characters, a lot of misunderstandings and fights.
MJ is the misunderstood type of bad boy, who iss good deep down but all the untold truths have hurt him and have made him the troubled young man he is. At times I thought he was too insecure but not necessarily childish, and I guess that work since he was supposed to be a 20 year old. As for Maddie, she kept reminding me of Megan Fox. The way the author described her, and her actions, I literally saw Megan acting it out. LOL
Overall, I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. I really want to see what's next in the series. Hopefully, a few years have passed and MJ and Maddie are older. Also, I now want to read the first two books in the series. I want to know more about Merrick and Rachael, their story sounds like my kind of read. Even though this is a series, this book can stands on its own. (less)
Let me start by saying Body Politics is one pretty hot enjoyable read....moreI really liked this book. Full review is also found at: http://wp.me/p2U8m5-v4
Let me start by saying Body Politics is one pretty hot enjoyable read. This is the first time I read Cara Bristol’s work and I have to say I’ll be going back for more. Stephanie is a busy career woman and doesn’t think she needs a man to take care of her. Yeah, she gets the itch some times and would prefer something else– rather, someone else other than her boyfriend with batteries. However, in no way does that mean she’ll let a man take care of her. Oh, no. She doesn’t want that. It’s been a while, and her friend sets her up on a blind date with Mark DeLuca (turn the A/C on, would you?). Stephanie agrees only to prove her friend wrong, except Mark is not that easy a man to get rid off. From the moment Stephanie walks in at Bottom’s Up (that’s the bar’s name), Mark knows she is the woman for him. Her defiance makes his hands itch with the urge of a good spanking. No matter what Stephanie tries to do to prove him she doesn’t need a man like him, he wants to show her why he’s exactly the man for her. Stephanie doesn’t go down without a fight. The thought of being spanked so that she can be disciplined is beyond her. She thinks it’s ridiculous. She rather spank him than be the one spanked. Stephanie never expects to enjoy the spanking as much as she does and that worries her. How is she supposed to continue leading an organization that’s all about women’s rights, and completely the opposite to what she’s thoroughly enjoying? And, enjoy it she does. ~~~~~~ Oh my! Well, I loved Mark. How couldn’t I? He’s so hot and sexy, and his spankings sound heavenly. I also enjoyed Stephanie’s I-can-do-it-myself-so-get-out-of-my-way attitude. I especially loved that. And then, the end… well, that was an unexpected suprise. I think if that little bit hadn’t been added (you’ll have to read it to know what I’m referring to) my rating wouldn’t have been as high. It gave me that aaww that’s original type of thought. I do have to say, I enjoy reading about spankings and all the delish naughtiness that comes with it. But this book gave me a different view into things, and I could totally relate to Stephanie’s feelings/thoughts about domestic discipline. Although I love reading these kinds of books, in real life I don’t know that I’d ever let dear husband try that. Hell no! Hey, if it ever came up I’d offer to discipline him instead. Ha! I’d recommend this fun and sexy read to anyone looking for something different and original. I tell ya, it’s refreshing.(less)

I first fell in love with Gideon in The Riding Crop. He’s a rascal in his own way and naughty as can be. The last thing he expected was to find someone just as naughty as he is. He’s not damaged goods, not exactly, but Olivia is. Olivia doesn’t trust men. In fact, she almost hates them and with reason. How can she not after what happened to her? Well, that all changes when she meets Gideon. They’re both each other’s perfect other halves. He understands and is compassionate about her past, and he can’t explain why he feels the way he does. He just wants to be with her, and no other woman will do. Olivia never thought she’d ever have feelings for a man the way she does for Gideon and when he proposes to come away with him, she accepts against her better judgement. Although, they’re a perfect match in bed (ooh yes, that’s where the riding crop comes into play) their love won’t be easy to keep. Not if they have to confront Gideon’s dad who wants him to marry someone from the ton and not someone with a past. Gideon is faced with an ultimatum and is up to him to decide his faith. He can keep all he has, all that he is or he can give it all up for the love of Olivia. ~~~~~ For me, there’s always something about historicals/regencies (although this one doesn’t fall quite there but close) that enthralls me. Add to it erotic scenes and I won’t stop reading. In this story, Gideon becomes the hero that gives everything for love and in his own way rights a wrong for Olivia. He’s my kinda hero.(less)

Selling Out is book # 2 of The Lost Girls series by Amber Lin. The first book in the series, Giving It Up, was hot and dealt with issues that some may think a bit strong and even a little on the dark side. When I got Selling Out I imagined it’d be about the same as book 1 in the series. Oh boy, was I wrong? Selling Out is darker than the first book and it isn’t because of the sex. There are some hot sex scenes, which put it right with erotic romance but it is not exactly that. In this book, Amber Lin, touches upon real life scenarios, the kind of subjects that many people may not want to talk about or read about. She does it in a way that draws you into the story, making it feel real in some instances, yet reminding the reader that it is fiction. Nonetheless the subjects are strong. To give you a flavor, this book touches upon incest, rape, prostitution, and drugs. It doesn’t go into details on the more touchy parts, but it gives enough that you can feel for the characters, want them to resolve their issues, and be happy. I have to say the piece that shocked me was Luke’s past. Goodness, I wanted to reach out and hug him. It broke my heart to read what had happened to him, I didn’t want it to be true. I thought: Amber, come on! You can’t do this. Please tell me it’s not true. Even though this book is part of a series, it can be read as a stand alone book. This book isn’t for the faint of heart. If you have issues reading about the subjects this book touches, do not read it. If you don’t have issues, you’re in for a pleasant read.(less)

Lilly is about to complete her internship so she can finally graduate, and it just so happens that her intership is being on the field with a copy. Not that she'd be ever be patrolling in her line of work but her forensics major requires that she be out and about for a certain amount of time.
It's her last day patrolling the streets with Jake, and she's happy about it. Then again, she feels a bit sad she'd see no more of Jake after today.
Jake takes her to a house where suppossedly someone broke in, except there is no break in. And, since Lilly grows desperate of waiting in the car she walks into the house. That's where Jake forgets he's a cop and uses the opportunity (he blackmails her) to get Lilly in his bed. It turns out he's been lusting after her since he met her.
This was a really short read, an enjoyable at that. It would've been nicer had it been a bit longer, but it was all good all the same.

Syndra is ready to call it quits. Her biological clock is ticking, and the man she loves is not the kind of man who'd get married and have kids. At least not while he's still a SEAL.
He's on leave, she doesn't know how long that'd last but she plans to make the best of it. After one more night of mind blowing sex, her one last time with Sam, and she'd break it off. She wants a future and Sam can't give it to her.
Sam knows Syndra is about to break things off, but he prefers to ignore it. If he can only not let her break up with him now, all he needs is a few more months before he can retire and offer her what she wants. The problem is he can never find the words when he's around her.
The sex in this book is darn hot and the characters are very likable.
For a short read, I thought it was pretty good. I guess what helped too was that the characters had known each other for years, and the author did a good job of level setting that up front so it came out an as established relationship.
This was one of those short enough to read at bedtime.

Syndra Banks should be thrilled by an invitation to join SEAL team Arapahoe in Key West for a wild good time. Instead the text summons from Ice pisses her off. Why?

If Syn wants to get her personal life moving forward she has to see him again in person to break it off.
Thanks to his smokin’ hot lover, Master Chief Sam Westervelt is losing his edge. Syn is melting the ice that runs in his veins, turning it into a river of molten lust. His discipline is shot and he’s daydreaming about intense, steamy sex while on missions, putting his entire team at risk. But he has a surefire plan all figured out if he can just toe the line a little longer.

True Love was no different and it made it even better that her drop dead gorgeous Montgomerys and Taggerts are back in the picture. Oh, yes, they are! Those men take my breath away, and she has so many of them.
In True Love, Alix is an architecture student who's inherited the chance to live for one full year at this hunted house in Nantucket. She's been there before but hasn't been back since she was a child. She recently broke up with her boyfriend and this inheritance couldn't have come at a better time. Then again, who in the right mind would not want to spend a year in Nantucket?
To her surprise, the man that's supposed to take care of any house repairs should she have any issues, is none other than Jared Montgomery. *swoons* He just so happens to be the architect she's always admired not only as the architecture genious that he is, but also as a man. Oh, yes, ladies! Alix plans to get the best of her time, especially learn all that she can from Jared and possibly even get a job at his firm back in New York. What she doesn't count on is that Jared doesn't want to teach anyone anything.
Jared wants to leave as soon as Alix gets there. At least, that's what his plan is until he sets eyes on her. Then, he's not sure he wants to leave her all by herself. He doesn't understand why so many secrets have been kept from her, and has a hard time keeping to himself the little bit of the truth he knows-- including the ghost that only he can see and talk to.
Jared is surprised to see Alix knows where everything is in that old house. He recalls her being there with her, playing with her, but doesn't really believe that as a child she could see and talk to his grandfather's ghost.
Their interactions make them see that they're not what they thought of each other before now. And the ghost along with other mysteries bring them even closer, to the point that they fall in love with each other.
I LOVED this story. Any readers who like a little bit of paranormal mixed with centuries old lost love, second chances, and true love would very much enjoy this book. It's not just an enjoyable read. It's a FANTASTIC read.

Jude Deveraux, the New York Times bestselling author of unforgettable romance, returns with a breathtaking first book in a fantastic new series—the Nantucket Brides trilogy. Set on the magical Massachusetts island, True Love introduces characters from a new generation of Montgomery-Taggerts, the beloved family from Deveraux’s classic novels.
Just as Alix Madsen is finishing up architectural school, Adelaide Kingsley dies and wills her, for one year, the use of a charming nineteenth-century Nantucket house. The elderly woman’s relationship to the Madsen family is a mystery to the spirited Alix—fresh from a romantic breakup—but for reasons of her own Alix accepts the quirky bequest, in part because it gives her time to plan her best friend’s storybook wedding.
But unseen forces move behind the scenes, creaking Kingsley House’s ancient floorboards. It seems that Adelaide Kingsley had a rather specific task for Alix: to solve the strange disappearance of one of the Kingsley women, Valentina, more than two hundred years ago. If that wasn’t troubling enough, Alix must deal with the arrogant (and extremely good-looking) architect Jared Montgomery, who is living in the property’s guesthouse.
Unbeknown to Alix, Jared has been charged with looking after her while she lives on the island—an easy task for him, considering the undeniable chemistry between the two. But Jared harbors secrets of his own, which, if revealed, may drive a wedge between the pair.
With a glorious Nantucket wedding on the horizon, sparks fly, and the ghosts of the past begin to reveal themselves—some of them literally. Finding their lives inextricably entwined with the turbulent fortunes of their ancestors, Alix and Jared discover that only by righting the wrongs of the past can they hope to be together.

There are little over a handful of guy friends, who happen to be SEALs.
The guys are some place in Florida on leave and plan to get the best out of their time there because they can be called back to duty any time.
This is Jagger's story. His mom has charged him to get a sorta famous erotica author at the airport and ensure she makes it safe and sound to her hotel. Jagger thinks it's an easy task and can't wait to get it done so he can go with the rest of the guys and maybe even find a warm body for that night. The one thing he doesn't count on is that his charge, Alexa, has changed into a beautiful woman.
He can no longer see her as his childhood friend but rather someone with to spend some time in bed.
Alexa is thrilled about Jagger picking her up, and unlike Jagger she's always had the hots for him. So this is a dream come true because before the night is over she plans to spend it in bed with him.
Overall, it was an okay story. There wasn't any romance, then again this is an erotic read. I didn't care much for the characters, something just wasn't there or didn't click all the way for me.

This is book number two in the Enslaved Trilogy, although I started to read the series out of order I didn't feel like I missed anything between book one and two, as two stands by itself. Then again, it teased me enough to want to read book one and find out what happened between Trevor and his new wife.
Enamored is the story of two Doms who have been in love with each for EVER but they haven't acted upon it because they're both Doms. Imagine that. A Dom telling wanting to whip another Dom. Yes. This is the case for Marc and Lauren.
Marc is a natural born Dom, whereas Lauren chose to become a Dominatrix after an incident in high school. Marc is tempted by a bet and is willing to risk it all if it means topping Lauren. He's dreamt about dominating her since they met. The problem is, Lauren is too much a Domme and to get her to allow him to top her is almost impossible. But a bet is a bet.
Lauren wants to dominate Marc. The bet is like a dream come true. She's sure she'll win until she loses. Now, she's at Marc's mercy to do with her what he will. She doesn't know what to make of it, but once she has a taste of it, she craves more.
This is a pretty hot read, not too long and not too short and steamy at that!

The second original eBook in the red-hot Enslaved trilogy begins with a dangerous bet that turns good friends into exquisite lovers. Billionaire BAD Boy Marc Wilde has never met a woman who could fulfill his every need...until he takes his good friend and fellow dominant Mistress Lauren up on a dangerous bet—a bet where she ends up as his sex slave for a week. Can a Dominatrix fall in love with a Dom? Only if she can find a way to submit to Marc’s every desire and be happy about it. Lauren has her doubts…but the flirtation, the friendship, and the sex might be too much for either to resist…(less)

In this installment, Mary gives into her desires and has sex for the first time. I had a little bit of trouble with this because she's supposedly a virgin, yet before this encounter she uses a vibrator, and I mean a VIBRATOR and... yes, use your imagination. So, I kept thinking, okay she's not really a virgin if I thought of virginity the way I've always known it. Sorry. That's just me.
Anyhow, Mary lets John initiate her into his kinky ways and she's an apt pupil because she wants more. Then, there is Max. She likes Max as much as he likes her, but she also likes John, and the truth is she wants both men. She's experimenting sex for the first time, and she wants a taste of each. Later, there is a bit of suspense introduced where someone apparently is out to get her or what used to be her mom's.
This is more a 2.5 rating for me. I wish these series weren't cut off where they are and instead it was just one book. The story seems to be going somewhere but it's hard to rate it, and like the characters when things just end in meh... I'm sure if all three books were merged into one, many would like the story.

Feeding one hunger has unleashed other needs, and Mary wants to experience everything her new life has to offer.
But Mary’s dark desires aren’t the only ones swirling in the depths of The Fetish Box, and violence erupts amid the passion. When one of the men is attacked and the people at The Box put in danger, Mary realizes that some desires are more dangerous than others…(less)

In this third installment of the Muses of Mayfair series, Sara Ramsey introduces her readers to the life of Ellie Claiborne (a fiery heroine the way I like them) and Nicholas Claiborne (an irresistible bad boy).
Ellie is a merry widow and she's gone on about her life any way that pleases her. She doesn't care whatever the rules are, and were she not the way she is, she'd be an outcast. But, no. Not this Ellie. The ton gasps at her antics but there is just so much to her that they prefer to accept whatever she does than miss the fun-- because, Ellie KNOWS how to have fun. The thing is, that is only a facade. She's brokenhearted and no matter what she does, the one man she once loved won't hear of her.
Nicholas is a bad boy who's about to have his vengeance on the one woman who broke his heart. Ellie. Nick has plans for her, thinking he'd make her regret breaking his heart to tiny pieces. He's back, and he's ready to take back what is his. His claim includes her, whether she wants it or not.
There is a thin line between love and hate. Both Ellie and Nick think they hate each other, but it doesn't take them long to realize the dislike they think they feel for each other, truly is love.
What more can I say? Sara gives her readers: a good story, VERY likable characters, a little bit of fun, a dash of suspense, and...um, yes...she gives steam to her pages.
I am looking forward to the next book in the series as I'm sure it'd be as awesome as this one.
Blurb:
A not-so-merry widow…
The widowed Marchioness of Folkestone is notorious for her parties, her art collection, and her utter disregard for the rules. But Ellie Claiborne knows her destruction is near. The new marquess is her first lover – the man whose sculpted body and sardonic grin haunt her every time she picks up her paintbrush. If he ever returns to claim his inheritance, her heart won’t survive seeing him again.
A man determined to destroy her...
Nicholas Claiborne hasn’t stepped foot in England since watching Ellie marry his cousin. He has no use for the gorgeous, heartless girl who betrayed him, or the title she abandoned him for. But when his business in India turns deadly, Nick must return to London to uncover a murderer – and take revenge on the woman he couldn’t force himself to forget.
A love they can’t escape…
Nick hates Ellie’s transformation from sweet debutante to jaded seductress. Ellie despises him for leaving her behind. Still, the sparks between them reignite the passion that should have been their destiny. As their demands of each other turn darker and a potential killer closes in, they must decide whether to guard the fragile remnants of their hearts — or find a way to fall in love all over again.(less)

Toni is the only daughter of a famous mob boss. She is the pearl of his eyes until he dies. Now, she's faced not only with the death of her dad but also the unwanted advances of the new wanna be mob boss. Toni is still brokenhearted at the loss of her first love, and before she gives into the demands of this annoying wanna be, she decides to give herself a night of passion. Her plan is to sleep with a man who knows his way around the bedroom and imagine she's having out-of-this-world-sex with her long lost love.
Braxton is a dom who's never been able to forget the one woman that was taken away from him. Not only that, but he also believes she forgot all about him and got married. Surprise, surprise! It turns out, the woman who stole his heart once more is back, very alive, and willing to submit to any dom that would have her.
Oh my! This was another terrific story by Sandra Bunino. She not only delivers a second chance to true love, but really steamy sex on top of that, and what do you know? There's a bit of action too, where Jax from SRE #2 makes an appearance and now we KNOW what this dom does for a living.

Duty, Respect and Honor thy Family ...
As the only child of notorious mob boss, Tony “The Chief” Azzari, Antonietta lives her life by this mantra. Toni never questions the world where decisions are made for her, until she meets Harley-Davidson riding bad boy, Braxton Malone. Ever since their fiery first kiss all those years ago, she can’t deny the desire to submit to his control.
Brax always knew he’d be walking a dangerous tightrope if he fell for Toni, but like a moth to a flame, he couldn't stay away. Barely surviving the wrath of the mob within an inch of his life, a scorned Brax has vowed never again to allow a woman under his skin.
Three years later, Brax is a top Dom at The Satin Rose Experience, New York’s posh BDSM club. When Toni shows up to fulfill her fantasy of submission before being forced into a loveless marriage, that vow is in just as much jeopardy as his life. Can they overcome the crimes of passion from their past and change Toni’s fate forever?(less)

I have part II of this story; however, I'm disappointed at the way this one ended. Note, this is not a spoiler because I'm not saying how it ends or what happens, but to end it where it did? Really?
I thought, "oh my, this is getting good" and then NOTHING! NOTHING! And yes, of course I will read part II because I want to know what happens next between Mary, John and Max, and who she's really interested in. The way the story begins, Mary is testing the waters and she likes both guys and vice versa. So, I am curious to see how that evolves. Then again, part I shouldn't have ended where it did. It's frustrating for the reader.

Once a month, Autumn gets off by listening to her next door neighbor as he has what sounds out-of-this-world-sex with a different woman every time. She doesn't talk to him and thinks he's never even seen her. Gosh, how she's so wrong on that. It turns out her neighbor knows exactly who she is and what she does, and this one time he's had it. Kade knows what she's up to and shows up at her place. He lets her know, he knows and has a proposition for her that Autumn just can't resist.
Overall, I thought this was a good read; however, it was too short. I wished there'd been more to the story. Then again, anyone looking for a short bed time read, this would be perfect.

The fabulous Taryn Elliott kept me up until 2am my time reading this terrific story. Goodness, she's always got me with every single one of her heroes. Now, that she's introduced me to Shane, I'm having a hard time deciding which of her bad boys is my favorite. Then again, I decided to make it easy on myself and let all her men be my favorite. There. Problem solved.
Shane is yet another sexy bad boy who's not happy with the card life has just dealt him. Finding out the man he's always known as his dad had a daughter he never spoke about is shocking. As if that weren't enough, the unknown daughter is the carefree beauty who holds the key to his future. He's not a happy camper.
Kendall thinks that at the passing of her dad, maybe, just maybe he thought of her. Her high hopes dissolve the moment she crosses paths with Shane and when she learns her beloved father played one last joke...err, card on her and her mom. She's never understood why her dad left her and her mom. Now she doesn't know if to be confused or hurt even as finding out out her dad raised the gorgeous man standing in front of her as his own son is not easy to accept.
The sexual tension is too much for them to take that it's easier to let desire drive their actions. The problem is, once that's out of the way they want to go back for more. It's a battle of wills that slowly but surely turns from mistrust into trust, more steam, new feelings neither had ever had, and love.
Sigh. I'm willing to go on a cross country trip with Shane any time.
I've read all of Taryn's stories and all I can say is I've liked them all. Taryn keeps raising the bar with every new story she releases and I can't wait to see what else she's got up her sleeve.
Psst...rumor has it she's busy working on her next story and the heroes are just as drool-worthy.

Shane Justice always does what's expected of him. Playing it safe has left him with nothing to show for it but an empty bank account and half ownership in a bed and breakfast over three thousand miles away from home. To make matters worse, his joint partner is exasperating, sexy, and drives him to the brink of insanity. He can't stop thinking about her, wanting her, or touching her. Kendall's not part of the plan, and he always has a plan.
Kendall Proctor has spent her life taking care of people. It's all she knows. A legal technicality changes her life, bringing a stranger into the middle of her business and straight to her doorstep. A passion-fueled moment forever changes their relationship adding sex and an unquenchable thirst for more into the equation. Shane and his grouchy but steady ways make her dare to believe that she could count on someone for the first time in her life.
A cross country trip, forced proximity, and a passion that defies all sense and logic is only the beginning of their story.(less)

From Evernight's Romance on the Go line:
A succubus half-breed, such as Violet, who hobnobs with the highest echelons of Victorian London society, is a bride in a difficult marriage of extremes. Any act that wants of propriety, and she would find herself banished to the wilds of Cornwall where her full-blooded succubus sisters live and thrive. Yet she prefers the company of mortals, even if she must occasionally risk her reputation by engaging in discreet sexual liaisons.
When Violet’s great uncle dies and bequeaths her his laboratory and home, she crafts an artificially intelligent automaton named Adam to sate her carnal needs. Her plan is coming along nicely until an incubus from her past, and the unwitting model for her invention, discovers her secret.

Cali is a divorcee mother of two. She's in her early forties and she wants to have the mind-blowing sex she's always craved but never had. She's frustrated because her husband wouldn't touch her and she thinks maybe there's something wrong with her.
Jake co-owns an exclusive BDSM club, but his time is up and he's ready to move on. He only have a few months left to decide where he'll go to next.

Once he meets her, it takes Jake a few questions to make up his mind and instead of handing her over to a Dom, he decides he'd be the one to introduce her to the pleasures she's been denied.
What can I say? I really enjoyed this book. It is light BDSM and there's more to the story than just sex. I can't wait to read the next book in the series. Cali's friend seems the quiet kind with a very kinky side and I'm anxious to readd that.

Lisa Renee Jones first introduced her readers to If I Were You-- a super sexy story, where the whereabouts of Rebecca are unknown.
All there is left of Rebecca are the journals she kept. In these journals, she talks about her new life changing experiences with none other than her boss. The way Rebecca describes what's been happening to her, draws Sara in unti she can no longer pull back.
The Seduction is the first of the journals where Rebecca talks about the new man in her life and the things he's got her doing. Mark draws her into his very dark, very wicked world. He wants her, but he wants her to make sure that when she decides to be with him is because she really wants to be there. Once Rebecca steps into his world, she finds no way out.
Mark is this gorgeous Dom who always gets what he wants, so what's new right? Rebecca is new, that's what! And, he'd do anything (it's what it seems like) to keep her.
I love, love, love these series. I want them all to just be out already. The guessing is killing me, the suspense in it teases me, and the sex in it keeps me turning the page.

Rebecca thinks it over, but decides to decline the contract. It's too bad she can't have him without it. Or so she thinks. Mark doesn't take "no" that easy, and offers to show her what she will miss out if she doesn't sign.

There are two fun historical Christmas romances in this book.
Story 1 - Lady Jane gives up her life to pursue her dream singing opera. Then, she falls in love with a certain Mr. X. That right there got me into the story. She exchanges love letters with Mr. X until he supposedly comes forward and asks her to marry him. Soon, she discovers she married the wrong Mr. X, except now it's too late because when she confronts her husband, he has a heart attack.
She goes in hiding after that, never believing in love again. Well, that is until someone from her past appears in her life again. Now, figure who the real Mr. X is.
This was a pretty fun read. It was almost a clean romance if you ask me. Nonetheless, I still enjoyed it even though I like a little more spice in my reads.
Book 2 - Adriana lives in hiding as a governess to a Duke's daughter. She thinks her secret is safe until the Duke discovers her true identity. She doesn't want to leave but she doesn't really have much choice unless she strikes a bargain with her boss the Duke. In the bargain, she discovers there's much more to lose than just letting people know who she really is. She can lose her heart.

Vanilla-Free Christmas is just as kinky as Keyboards and Kink. Vanilla-Free Christmas is exactly that, there is nothing vanilla about any of the nine stories in this anthology.
Every story has something that sets it apart from the others, but the theme is KINK and lots of it. There is a bit of paranormal and demigods thrown in the mix as well.
The three stories that stand out, at least for me, are:
1) The Olympian by Sandra Bunino 2) Who's Been Naughty and Nice by Vanessa Deveraux 3) Faith's Gift by R. Brennan (This one reminded me of 50SoG.)
Anyone looking for a naughty read before bedtime, this is a nice one to have. I'd recommend to read one story a night for nine nights, it won't get kinkier than this.
