Forbidden Fruit by Rosalie Stanton

Forbidden FruitForbidden Fruit by Rosalie Stanton

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


It is nearly impossible to find words to express how horrifying it would be to walk in on someone masturbating...then, make that someone you know and have a crush on - KILL ME NOW! That is pretty much how Ashlynn feels when she catches her hottie hunk of a stepbrother, Reese, whacking off to a porno. Then only thing that keeps her sane is the tiny chance that he was so engrossed in the porno that he didn't notice her spying on him. Yeah, right! Life is just not that kind.

Ashlynn has nearly worked herself into a frenzy thinking about all the possibilities - did he see me, did he not see me? Will he bring it up or ignore the big elephant in the room? If the mischievous glint in his eye is anything to go by, then she is in for some payback!

Reese is a naughty boy - that is obvious by his teasing tone and bedroom eyes...is he looking at her with something more than brotherly love in his eyes or is that just her imagination? He is determined to rid her of that pesky innocence she has held on to so tightly for the past 19 years. Reese is talented with his tongue, I'll give him that and if anyone can talk her out of her plain cotton panties, he will be the one to do it.

Innocent Ashlynn has never experienced these feelings before and she feels the burn of desire every time he opens his mouth. Eager to be her teacher, he is tenacious about making her voice her needs and desires because let me tell you, he isn't shy about voicing his. Their chemistry is exciting and naughty and watching their fantasy unfold into reality was mega-hot!

Reese has dirty talk to spare. I promise you will be yelling "Oh My God! Yes! Please!" and you will be searching for your very own little Reese to take home with you. Is it really necessary to say more? This 25-page quickie is guaranteed to get your hormones raging and your blood pumping - just don't read it in public because you might embarrass yourself.

Benefits of Sharing by Leslie Lee Sanders

Benefits of SharingBenefits of Sharing by Leslie Lee Sanders

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Sold! I am totally sold on THE BENEFITS OF SHARING.

In this naughty short story, Cara Matthews is in mourning. Her 30th birthday is rapidly approaching and the more she thinks about leaving her youthful 20's behind, the deeper she slips into the black hole of depression. Her loving husband James is determined to make her see that 30 really is the new 20. He wants her to feel as beautiful and as youthful and sexy as he sees her in his eyes.

In an effort to restore her youthful confidence, James has an early birthday present delivered straight to their door -- a present wrapped in a young and handsome package and his name is Isaac. Cara is tentative at first, but she is also excited by the possibility of her fantasy (to have another man join their bed) being granted by none other than her husband. When Cara finally drops all pretense of restraint by throwing caution to the wind, she realizes that age truly is just a number.

The raw passion shared by the threesome is on fire. Leslie Lee Sanders, that sly devil, doesn't hesitate to throw in a few bombshells - reminding us not to be disillusioned by the passion when bringing another to the marital bed. I was truly surprised by the twist in the ending.

Imprinted by Darcy Sweet

ImprintedImprinted by Darcy Sweet

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

IMPRINTED gets 5 very naughty star from me. It was chocked full of hot, hot, hotness!


Everyone has fantasies...especially teenage boys, but their fantasies are more like a shot in the dark as opposed to something that would actually ever happen. When Jacob finds himself in a precarious situation with the couple he does lawn work for, he gets way more than he bargained for from Mr & Mrs. Dean. His summer reality blew the elements of his fantasies right out of the water!

This quick read is packed with steam, but there is a story mixed in with all the sex. Darcy Sweet, please, please, please tell me you are going to continue this story!

Wicked Game by Mercy Celeste

Wicked GameWicked Game by Mercy Celeste

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


"Property of Number 4 Miami Football." Where do I sign up for that gig? Just tell me when and I'm there!

Who knew temping at a nanny agency would land you in the lap of luxury and the lap of one of football's most eligible bachelors? Certainly not the recently unemployed Cass Pendleton and she definitely didn't think that lap would belong to her childhood nemesis, Jaime Dalton. Cass and Jaime have been bickering since they were 5 years old when he pulled her hair and she knocked him out!

Jaime's schedule is out of control and he is in desperate need of some help to keep all his appointments in order. Who better to "handle his business without handling his business" than his lifelong adversary and plain jane, Cass Pendleton? He is confident that the saucy and energetic blast from his past is not after any of the things most women who surround him are after—his money, his time and a big, fat diamond ring to decorate their finger. No, he is convinced he is totally safe! The more time he spends with Cass, however, the more he realizes that she is everything he needs. Like any great quarterback, he is busy running offense - determined to score big and earn the right to touch up and down Cass' luscious body.

Jaime is a superstar football player who's accustomed to winning and the goal he is aiming for is Cass, but she isn't like all the other women who easily fall under his spell. Once he realizes she isn't as easily tempted, he sees it as a challenge--a challenge he plans to win. Cass puts up a tough front as a heavy hitter on defense, guarding her heart from the heaviest hit of all. What he doesn't foresee is falling victim to his own WICKED GAME.

The banter between these two was top notch. Their rhetoric was so hot it made me giddy with delight. All Jaime had to do was turn on the charm and there's no woman in the world who could refuse to submit to the demands spewing out of his hot, dirty little mouth. When Jaime speaks, panties drop. What are we playing touch or tackle? I will gladly be the "Property of Number 4 Miami Football" and I'm pretty confident you will too.

Dirty by Megan Hart

 Dirty by Megan Hart

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Review:

Wow! I was not prepared for DIRTY... It was heavy! I was expecting something "Dirty", but that's not all I got. I am always interested in the meaning behind the title of a book and I really look forward to that moment of clarity, because in a good book, there is always a definitive moment the reader can say: Ah-ha, this is where the title came from... There is, of course, a very good reason for the title, but I'm not going to ruin it for you--you'll just have to read it!

Why is it okay for men to be promiscuous? Why r they considered studs and women whores? When Elle attends a sex toy party at a friend's house, they play a daring game of 20 questions--all explicit about sexual situations and experiences. Elle does as she usually does and lies about pretty much everything. For instance, she has had sex with 78 men (like she would tell that truth to a room full of strangers). Don't tell me you wouldn't judge the girl at a sex party who admits to sleeping with that many men--YIKES! Women are conditioned to lie about such things in our society because they are in fear of being ostracized--becoming an outcast and judged for their actions. What a slut! No one typically stops to ask why is she acting out like this...what is she trying to make herself feel better about?

Elle is so consumed with self loathing she isn't even living her life. Even when the saintly Dan comes along (love him, he deserves a medal) and slowly sweeps her off her feet, she tries every way possible to push him away. I felt like Dan was taming a wild animal...slowly coaxing Ella into life one painfully slow step at a time. Obviously there is a reason she feels she doesn't deserve to be happy and I couldn't put the darn book down until I found out WHY?? This book is about sexual prowess, sexual exploration and acceptance.

When I finished reading DIRTY, I wasn't sure how to categorize it...after some deliberation, I realized I need a shelf for dark and sexy books that lack the "fluffy" tone that frequently accompanies erotic novels. Are there scenes in DIRTY that light your pants on fire? Most definitely! DIRTY is so much more than an erotic read, it is more like a great drama with some great sex and a lot of emotion...an erotic drama. Get it! Read it!

Bordello Secrets by Heather Whittington

Bordello SecretsBordello Secrets by Heather Whittington

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Whoa! Something fishy is definitely going on at the Bordello and I was very intrigued to know exactly what it was!


The elusive Master of the bordello is hiding something...something big. The ladies of the night, his ladies, never dare to question why they never remember the nights they spend in his company and his bed. When the new girl, Marie, is told of the mysterious ways of the Master, she is determined to get to the bottom of the big mystery.

For a quick, 32 page read, there sure was a lot going on, but it didn't feel at all rushed. I would have enjoyed reading a bit more about Marie and Master after the big secret is revealed, but the story felt complete as it was.

Three Hearts One Love by Ronna Gage

Three Hearts One LoveThree Hearts One Love by Ronna Gage

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


THREE HEARTS ONE LOVE is like having a delicious buffet of desserts in front of you and being able to eat them all without any of the guilt. Get ready to indulge because this is a tasty read indeed!

Dr. Karma Rodden is a smart woman--she knows better than to pass up an opportunity...or two when it is dangling like a tasty carrot right in front of her face. With a name like "Karma," I would have expected her to be a little more conscientious of the potential repercussions of dating two of the most eligible bachelors in town.

On one side, she has the sexy as sin cowboy and ranch owner, Dylan McCoy who is a great match for the animal loving veterinarian she happens to be. He is someone who can get down and dirty on the farm and look smokin' hot while doing it. I loved their down to earth interaction. They were both equally as comfortable delivering a calf as they were rolling round making love in the hay. It is obvious that he loves and cares for her.

Then, on the other side, there is the charming and polished, but dirty talking attorney, Jaxon Hollister. He appeals to an entirely different set of animal senses with his jet set lifestyle, flashy cars and pull-your-skirt-up-so-I-can-bang-you-up-against-the-wall brand of lovin'. Jaxon's cool confidence and sense of adventure was totally endearing and the thing that made him even more likeable was that he was not at all shy about letting her know that he was madly in love with her. Well, shoot! I wouldn't know which one to pick either!

She is really enjoying the best of both worlds and as long as she can keep the two paths from crossing, everything will be just fine...it shouldn't be tough to keep the two very different men separate, right? The story wouldn't be nearly as exciting if it were only that simple. You know that karma always has a way of coming back and biting you when you least expect it! When the truth is finally revealed, Jaxon and Dylan have a few surprises of their own for the two-timing vet.

THREE HEARTS ONE LOVE had me covering my eyes and and holding my breath as I waited for Karma's very steamy worlds to collide. Deception is very nerve wracking! Just when I thought I had it all figured out, Ronna Gage pulled out all the stops to end the trio's story with a bang. If you are looking for a steamy, nail biting romance that is sure to kept you on edge, then look no further!

Simon Says (SBC Fighters, #2)Simon Says by Lori Foster

Simon Says (SBC Fighters, #2)Simon Says by Lori Foster

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This 5 star read really deserves a well thought out review, but honestly, I just don't have the time :-( I will tell you that I love the characters in this series so far...this is only book 2, but they are hot and real and I want to just devour these fighting men and this book even has a fighting, smokin' hot babe!

I LOVE that Dakota is such a strong woman and it is obvious that these men admire that about her too! She is stubborn and proud and sexy... I am green with envy, because she landed the wet dream fighter, Sublime. Sublime might be a champion trainer and fighter in the ring, but with Dakota, he is a pussy cat. I am really looking forward to the stories of the other fighters... Hard to Handle is up next - can't wait!

Soul Mate by Catherine Bybee

Soul MateSoul Mate by Catherine Bybee

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


The direction that Catherine Bybee's SOUL MATE took was pleasantly surprising. Many of the things I expected to happen did not come to fruition and I love it when a story catches me off guard.

Kari Pearce is a loner. She lives a life secret from even her sister, who is also her best friend. Kari has embraced her life of solitude in order to protect her secret. Instead of focusing on the events of her infection, her story focuses on how she leverages her canine senses to make the human world a better place--this was a nice spin and welcome change to the typical story line where the victim battles evil in the supernatural world.

Of course, what paranormal story would be complete without an alpha male to round things out? Agent Nick Murdock to the rescue, or so he thinks. He is determined to protect Kari from the "bad guys". Little does he know she is well beyond capable of taking care of herself, but you can't blame a guy for wanting to be the hero.

For a suspenseful and romantic read, SOUL MATE is just the novella that's sure to hold your attention and entertain you for the afternoon.

Taken Hostage by Ranae Rose

Taken HostageTaken Hostage by Ranae Rose


My rating: 3 of 5 stars




I really wanted to love TAKEN HOSTAGE. It started out with a bang, loaded with promise, but as the story progressed, it became a little convoluted, ultimately watering down a solid story.

Upon returning from lunch, bank teller Tiffany encounters a mysterious and sexy stranger. Realizing he is out of her league, she drags herself back to work and the mundane routine that consists of her day. While standing at her counter fantasizing about the flirtations she exchanged just moments ago with her sexy stranger, she is jarred back to reality as the dark barrel of a gun is shoved in her face by none other than Mr. Psycho Sexy, demanding she fill his bag with cash. If that wasn't enough drama for her otherwise boring day, he snatches her up as a hostage.

Sweet and shy Tiffany is conflicted by the emotions her kidnapper, James, has stirred within her, but it doesn't take her long to get past her confusion. There were several missed opportunities, in my opinion, to take this book from steamy to smokin' hot. With the thoughts that were streaming through Tiffany's mind, I thought for sure Ms. Rose was gearing up for a little forced seduction, but alas, I was wrong, James had a totally willing victim.

When bank robber #2, Rolando and his cousin entered the picture, things started to go downhill with the story very quickly. There was entirely too much going on in the story for a novella, there just wasn't enough time to properly develop the characters or the story. There was no closure with the secondary characters...what happened to them anyway? The epilogue gave closure to Tiffany and James' story, but it ended abruptly and was a little too neat for my taste.
