Review to come with my tour stop on 10/5:
**FULL REVIEW**
“Why does he want to work with me? Why does my stomach twist up like a pretzel every time those stormy green eyes of his lock on mine? Why does the thought of working with him make me smile?”
The thought of working with the smokin’ hot Daemon Scott makes me smile…but this is Kelly’s story. Kelly needs to have a little spice in her life; her BOB just isn’t cutting it, and neither was her last boyfriend. Working at a prestigious Interior Design Studio, Kelly does all she can to make sure her job is number one. Always on the ball and intuitive, she knows that constantly proving herself is what pays the bills. So, when she has a meeting with a new client, a very rich and powerful client, Kelly is fully prepared to make sure the deal closes…what she doesn’t count on is the fact that the man whom she will be working with wants more than just her design influence.
“If it was anyone else causing me to feel this way I would be ecstatic and begging them to take me now, but I can’t give in to Daemon. Anyone, but Daemon Scott. I want a stable relationship, not a one night of bliss, only to be forgotten the next day. Just the thought of the many notches carved into his bedpost makes me cringe.”
This story holds a classic tale of single woman, strong, dominating-alpha-male, cat and mouse chase game. It’s a story we all love in many different variations…and I can honestly say, I liked this one too. I really like that Kelly is a strong, independent woman; she’s beautiful and smart—and she boxes! I think Daemon is intriguing and his backstory is heart-felt. He moves a little fast for my personal taste but it worked for the storyline and the length of this book. I look forward to reading more about Daemon and Kelly…of course I want to know what happens next!! ~V~

This book is basically interchangeable with any of the other dominant billionaire books out there. There was nothing new and exciting. It is a decent book, several spelling and grammar errors (since for sense more than once) and ended on a cliffhanger. Where are these successful, dreadfully handsome men that fall for a woman at first sight? I haven't met any in my neck of the woods, but I digress. This book is neither spectacular nor miserable. It falls somewhere in the middle for me. It was a quick read and the sex was hot, even if the heroine is a bit annoying with her wishy-washy ways. I will read the 2nd book when it is released because I don't like not knowing the ending - even if it is predictable.

Go Kelly for leaving Gary to find your "O" and it was delivered by Daemon over and over. I cannot wait to read what happens next....... Come on Daemon make everything alright!!

Unfortunately the spelling and grammar mistakes distracted too much from the story. Too many obvious mistakes that should have been picked up in a re-read. Some things didn't make sense and I had to look back to try and understand what the author was trying to say.
This story has great potential with a little bit more editing.

She has an idea. Mine you, not a very original one, but an idea nonetheless.
This could have easily fallen to the pattern of your usual romance novels, but them it's like the author just gave up and broke off the series. Just when I began to actually see the usual cliches of a story breaking free, she goes and mess it all up with a conflict that isn't even a conflict and a really nosy boss that I have no clue as to her intentions. Like why then and what do you get out of bringing that to her? o.O
Though I must say, there are unique moments to both Kelly and Daemon, like their bickering and intimate moments. I even love her group of friends. Sasha is fierce and Tony quiet. At least he isn't gay. No offence to the gay community, but it's nice when a character can have a really good male friend who isn't broken beyond repair or tonguing guys in his down time. Bypassing the cliche is always welcomed.
Kelly doesn't really intrigue me as a character, but she keeps me interested. Her pizza and anything diet has gotten to me throughout this story and have had me craving the combo in the middle of my work day. Otherwise though, a character that I got such a great start from, faded as the book continued.
Daemon got an unnecessary chapter, but I am in no way closer to the character. He is your usual alpha-male that growls all over the place, but otherwise ... nothing. I don't hate him, but then I don't know him either. He falls into the alpha male role and was never taken out.
We didn't get the time to develop personalities for the characters, or to get a solid foundation in the present, or enough background information to sate me into believing in this novel. It was rather basic. Just when I thought we were going somewhere, it abruptly ended with unfounded betrayal. I know betrayal and that wasn't it. Dude didn't even know you then and where the hell is Gary to add to this story? If your gonna embrace the cliches, then go all out or don't go at all.
I really wish I could have gotten to dig further within this story, to get comfortable with the characters and story line, but that never happened. Predictable and abrupt are two words that come to mind when I try to describe this story.
There are moments that make this story it's own, but it still didn't deliver, even on the level of a novella. I hope book 2 might help to set this story on a different path and give it an identity, as I am unsure of what it currently is, aiming for or going. Even filled of cliches, it can be better.

In a world full of sexy and steamy romances it is very rare to find one that stands out of the crowd and grabs your attention from beginning to end. Well, you know what? Anonymously Yours did that for me. What a read! This has sex, lots of mind blowing sex, and passion but it also has something else. Heart. This is a book with a plot. A strong female lead character who knows what she wants and goes after it without having anybody dictate what she needs or wants. Daemon is the ultimate alpha- dominant, confident, sexy. He goes after what he wants at any cost. He wants Kelly and will stop at nothing to get her. The more she denies him the stronger his lust grows. These characters are so well written and rounded. They are sarcastic and funny. They love sex and make no apologies for that. Their chemistry is explosive, it almost leaps off the page. And they bring out the best in each other. Daemon is driven and he pushes Kelly – challenging her every step of the way. You want them to have their happily ever after, but with all good stories, you need a bit of drama to spice things up and the author provides that in spades. I loved that the author gave us a story with two very strong lead characters, but at the same time making them likable. I really enjoyed this book and cannot wait for its sequel. It held my interest the entire time to such a degree that I read it in one sitting. Congrats to the author for writing an erotic and spicy book with a very strong plot and characters.

Passion, Hot, Sexy, Alpha Male… You like all of these things you will love Anonymously Yours. I like Kelly because she had the courage to leave a relationship she had been in for a long time and took a leap of faith to find herself in the world without her boyfriend. What she wasn’t expecting was to find everything she wanted in a new client of hers. Especially when what made her want him wasn’t what she thought would attract her to a man.
“How is it that a man that so far has done a great job at pissing me off and knows practically nothing about me can make me fall aprart in his arms and yet, the man I loved for many years and planned my future with could barely make me cum.” -Kelly
Kelly was used to a vanilla lifestlye, in and out of the bedroom.
“I always thought sex was nice and my friends were just sluts who got off on things most normal girls did not enjoy. Normal girls like me. I want to be a slut who enjoys those things.” -Kelly
Seriously the quote above from the book cracked me up! After meeting Daemon Kelly’s “Internal hussy” as Kelly would put it wanted to come out and play!! Daemon is going to help Kelly grow in life but the twist that was thrown at me at the end of this book was not expected at all. Now I can’t wait for book 2 to find out how this all plays out! I give this book 4 stars

~Joni’s Review~
4.5 BIG Stars!!!
Kelly Dawson wanted more than she had with her longtime boyfriend, Gary. Deciding that holding onto their relationship wasn’t fair to either of them she decides to let him go. She wants what she has heard her friends talk about. She wanted passion.
Daemon Scott is a major playboy, who loves ‘em and leaves ‘em. That is until he meets Kelly. He is determined to make her his. After Kelly runs from him the first time, Daemon seeks out the help of her best friend.
When Kelly receives the first gift signed Anonymously Yours she knows instantly who it’s from. She can’t risk losing her dream job for a night of pleasure at this playboy’s hands.
As time passes, Kelly relents and gets exactly what she was looking for. Passion.
Just when everything was going perfect it all falls apart.
I read this book in a matter of a couple of hours. It grabbed my attention and held it throughout. There are some errors that were missed during editing, but these do not take away from the story line at all. I also have to say that I didn’t see the ending coming and cannot wait to continue this story.

**JUST BOOKED received an ARC for an honest review**
A modern day erotic Cinderella story with a twist…
Anonymously Yours is a romance novel about Kelly Dawson discovering sometimes love changes. Thomas Hardy once said, “Time changes everything except something within us which is always surprised by change.” Kelly finds that her love and sexuality has flat lined with Gary, she cannot phantom why because he is tall has an athletic built, wavy brown hair, and dark brown eyes. Gary should feel more special to because not only did she date him in high school and through college, but he was her first for many life experiences. Her first real passionate kiss, her first serious boyfriend, first orgasm, and first love, so why does she feel as if she is suffocating in the apartment Gary and her share? Kelly decides it is time to leave her seven-year relationship with Gary behind to find someone who can give her heart a jolt and throw her sexuality levels off the charts.
After leaving Gary six months ago, Kelly is a twenty-four year old beautiful fair-skinned red head with green eyes finds herself as the center of attention of a rich, sex in a stick, dangerous, and puzzling playboy, Daemon Scott. Daemon had a body like the Greek god Adonis along with thick black inky hair, green eyes, and two dimples that would make any woman’s panties drop.
Unfortunately, Kelly may be Daemon’s undoing to getting what he wants because Daemon always gets what he wants. Will Kelly decide to play with fire with Daemon, a man that she considers out of her league, and possible risk getting burn? Will both, Kelly and Daemon, find their happily ever after or will the clock strike midnight only leaving a memory and longing?
Author C. Shell’s romance novel, Anonymously Yours, captivates your interest immediately turning each page to discover what will occur next. Do not be disappointed when you discover the book ends with huge cliffhanger, because C. Shell will not have us to waiting too long to find out what happens next with Kelly and Daemon. The sequel will be the final book in the Yours series and is expected to be release in the fall of 2013. Anonymously Yours is C. Shell’s first novel in the Yours series and I rate Anonymously Yours, 5 STARS!

Anonymously Yours is a very fast-paced, hot and sexy read.
After Kelly moves on from her boring boyfriend, she comes crashing into Daemon Scott. He has the playboy rep and she refuses to be another notch on his headboard. That is until he makes his movtives known – he wants her as his.
Kelly fights with what she wants to do when it comes to Daemon. Her head is telling her one thing, her heart wants to protect itself and her “inner hussy” is just chomping at the bit to get very close to Daemon. I love that Kelly holds her own against Daemon. She doesn’t become complete mush in front of him.
“Now I just need to figure out what to do about it. My gut is telling me to ignore it and not give him another thought, but my body and libido wants me to call him. Hell, they want me to jump his bones and ask for secons, but I think that is going a bit far.”
I love that Daemon is very protective of what is “his”. He doesn’t try to control Kelly, but he does let her know that he will go to the ends of the earth to make sure she is well take care of. Daemon doesn’t hold back on how he feels towards Kelly – he lets her know immediately what he wants.
“Always, my Tulip,” he says turning me in towards him and kissing me deeply. “I always protect what is mine, and baby you are completely mine. Now and forever.”
This book moves at a fast pace which I love!! Many people may feel that it is rushed, but I think that it flowed perfectly. The chemistry and banter between Kelly and Daemon is awesome. I also love the secondary characters. They added alot to the book and kept things entertaining.
However, I must say one word that killed me – cliffhanger!! UGH – and it ends right when shit really gets good!!
I can’t wait to see what happens in the next book!

This was a quick read for me. I enjoyed the storyline, even though this is an insta-love story, which I’m not a huge fan of.
I found Kelly, the main character, endearing. She was sweet, sassy, and determined. She is confident at work, but needs a little help in her social life. Cue the best friends, Sasha and Tony. Sasha is quirky and flat out fun. I loved her no fuss, don’t mess with me attitude. She pushes Kelly into trying things and gives her unwavering support. Tony is great as well. He is her protector and her shoulder to cry on. The two of them make an awesome support system for Kelly.
Daemon is definitely an alpha male. The way he sets his sights on Kelly and is so determined to have her and not let anyone stand in his way is definitely hot. Not only is he dominate, but he has his sweet moments as well, making him all the more better. The two complement each other very well.
This book has the potential to be a 4 star read. At times, it felt a little flat to me. While we get to see Daemon’s pursuing of Kelly and the beginning of their relationship, we don’t really get in the middle of their relationship. We are told that they have a relationship, but other and a scene or two, we mostly just see the sex. Hot, steamy sex, mind you, but I personally like having a little more meat to the story. I would have also liked to be able to delve into the characters' pasts a little more. We are told who they are and where they come from, but we don't really get to experience them.
As I said, this is a fun, quick read, and if that’s what you’re looking for, then I would recommend this to you. Keep in mind that this is book 1 in a two books series. The 2nd book should be coming soon, which I will definitely be reading.

Sasha is quirky and flat out fun. I loved her no fuss, don’t mess with me attitude. She pushes Kelly into trying things and gives her unwavering support. Tony is great as well. He is her protector and her shoulder to cry on. The two of them make an awesome support system for Kelly.
Daemon is definitely an alpha male. The way he sets his sights on Kelly and is so determined to have her and not let anyone stand in his way is definitely hot. Not only is he dominate, but he has his sweet moments as well, making him all the more better. The two complement each other very well.
This book has the potential to be a 4 star read. At times, it felt a little flat to me. While we get to see Daemon’s pursuing of Kelly and the beginning of their relationship, we don’t really get in the middle of their relationship. We are told that they have a relationship, but other and a scene or two, we mostly just see the sex. Hot, steamy sex, mind you, but I personally like having a little more meat to the story. I would have also liked to be able to delve into the characters' pasts a little more. We are told who they are and where they come from, but we don't really get to experience them.

I really enjoyed reading this book. The story begins with Kelly Dawson and her realization of being in an unhappy relationship with her longtime boyfriend, Gary. Their relationship has become so distant that they were practically leading separate lives – she wasn’t aware of who his friends are and vice versa. Plus there was no chemistry between the two. As a matter of fact, the opening scene of the book described exactly the lack of chemistry between Gary and Kelly.
The rest of books takes us on the journey of Kelly and her (or more like her friends’) quest for that man that will rock Kelly’s world. The author did a great job with portraying Kelly’s thoughts and her many indecisions. The way she goes back and forth regarding Daemon Scott was at times, comical. Daemon Scott…the all-time swoon guy is Kelly’s latest client. Although she is determined (or maybe not – see the indecision) to not get involved with him, there was this pull between that two that Kelly has never experienced.
I don’t want to give too much away…the book does leave you with a cliffhanger and I’m eager to find out how Daemon will get himself back in Kelly’s good graces in the second book.

Kelly Dawson is a interior designer. She broke up with her boyfriend 6 months ago because she wanted more than he could give her. To feel more passion.
Daemon Scott is a hot, confident, dominant, successful man known for his reputation as a playboy.
They met at a meeting awkwardly. He was impressed with her so now she is the head of the project.
He wants her more than a one night stand with her. He wants her to be just his.
With just touch, he made her feel alive. He is a danger for her heart because he could crash her.
They are both attracted to each other. Drawn to each other.
The chemistry between them is strong.
Will the secret he didn´t told her separate them or will their relationship survive it? We´ll found out in the next installment I´m eager for.
Beautiful, quick read that will make you eager for more.

3.5 hearts!
Short yet steamy! Those are the words I would use to best describe "Anonymously Yours" by C. Shell. At only roughly 117 pages, C. Shell packs love, lust, drama, friendship and heartache in each wonderful page.
"Anonymously Yours" is the story of Kelly Dawson, a struggling young woman who has recently left a dead end relationship with her high school boyfriend. She has a job she loves but is missing the companionship of having a person in her life. Her best friends, Tony and Sasha, are determined that she needs to meet someone and even if its just to get the best "O" of her lifetime, its time to move on!

I received it in exchange of an honest review ... and thanks C. Shell for that!!!! God i loved this book! I devoured it in two hours!!! Well written and addictive, with a very interesting story, red hot chemistry and scenes, add on super sexy, witty characters and you understand why this book is a blast!!!! Fans of alpha males say hello to a new and surely very fine specimen: Daemon Scott!!!! Beside the sizzling talent of Daemon, the story itself rocks which is why i am still hangover!!!! Because my friends, the book finishes on a cliffhanger!!!! Which adds an amazing suspense to the heat of Daemon and Kelly's relationship, but is killing me softly!!! I need to know what happens and fast!!!!!! C. Shell two thumbs up high in the air!!!!!

C. Shell did a really great job in this book. It's interesting and hot! It made me go crazy!!

Solid 4 stars...This book definitely grabs your interest
from the beginning. I found myself laughing at her description of what sex is like with Gary. I know most women can relate to her in some way. Your rooting for Kelly to find that one guy that can make her feel whole and something in bed.
Daemon, is arrogant from the start and you wonder how he could be anything but a playboy. Fortunately all it takes is Kelly to settle him down so he says. I wanted their relationship to work from the day he literally swept her off her feet in the gym. The ending will leave you wanting more... ~ Cathy

Kelly is a brave strong woman- Leaving the only man she's known wanting more out of her love life is defiantly a hard brave decision. She was suppose to let loose but has failed and now spends most of her nights lonely. When Daemon bursts in her life the sparks start flying with just a look. Kelly finally takes the plunge with Daemon just to have it ripped apart.
Lots of hot steamy juicy sex. Ending is a cliff hanger folks!
The story is so good it's worth the cliff hanger.

I really enjoyed this book. I had a hard time putting it down. I really like the main characters Kelly and Daemon. The chemistry that they have is HOT. I enjoyed the secondary characters also. Kelly's best friends Tony and Sasha and Daemon's brother Trey.
This was just a really fun read. I am excited to find out how it ends in Only Yours.

I was not ready for this book to end. I really enjoyed the banter between Daemon and Kelly. Their is lots of steam in this book. Every girls wants that steam. I can not wait to see where the story goes next.
February 16, 2017
It was a little too fast-paced for my liking, but the funny and witty inner thoughts of the heroine and the chemistry made up for it. Now I'm just dying to know what was Daemon's ulterior motive or if he had any.
Plus, beautiful cover!

August 24, 2013
