Protection by S.A. Reid /T. Baggins

Protection by S.A. Reid /T. Baggins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


My initial reaction about PROTECTION was WOW! After taking a breather before writing my review, my reaction is still WOW! It was a first read by this author, S.A. Reid and it definitely will not be my last. My expectation was for it to be a very rough and dark look into the sexual prowess and power of men in the prison system - well; I got that and so much more.

PROTECTION is a story of survival and the price one must pay for protection in the 1930's prison system. We are introduced to Gabriel, the straight, badass, street smart prisoner serving two life sentences - he is someone you would definitely want on your side if confined within the Wentworth Prison walls. Then there is the innocent, Oxford trained physician named Joey. Joey is like a piece of fresh meat to a starving pack of wolves and is destined to be somebody's "bitch" thanks mostly in part to his good looks and mild manner. Although Gabriel has sworn to never be "prison queer", something about Joey stirs his protective instincts and sexual desires unlike any other male ever has. So, from the second Gabriel lays eyes on Joey, their seductive and tragic story begins.

The story told is a little dark, but not as much as I had anticipated it to be - It is emotional and exciting and overall, really fantastic! I loved it even more than I expected!



This story contains the following elements: m/m and non-con - so if you have an aversion to either of those, then you should steer clear of this read.

Something Different by S.A. Reid /T.BAGGINS

Something Different by S.A. Reid/T.BAGGINS

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


SOMETHING DIFFERENT is the second book I have read by S.A. Reid and she really has a special talent for lightening up the darkest of tales. Ms. Reid has a unique voice telling stories that you can't help but get sucked into.

The tale she tells is a common one of a man unsatisfied with his life...existing in a fog of mediocrity from day to day until he finally succumbs to his desires and seeks some sexual relief and gratification in the form of a prostitute. What he finds is so much greater than he could have ever imagined. Michael ventures out in search of his own PRETTY WOMAN, but ends up with a young man who ultimately rocks his world - physically and emotionally.

SOMETHING DIFFERENT isn't all lightness and sweet, though there are parts that are, it is a little dark and sad - it's an emotional read. The story really delves into how Michael's actions affect his family life, his work life and his overall state of mind. When he finds his "something different" it truly changes his life. I was actually surprised at the turn of events and loved how the secondary character stories played out.

Check out SOMETHING DIFFERENT for a wonderful story that will make you second-guess your preconceived notions about prostitutes and cheaters - it will take you on a bit of an emotional roller coaster, but ultimately leave you feeling happy about the journey.



ETA...Just read that this is a self-published book which is even more impressive as it is very well edited - more so than many professionally edited books I have read.

Effortless (Thoughtless Book 2) by S.C. Stephens

Effortless by S.C. Stephens

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


**TEMPORARY RAVINGS UNTIL I CAN POST A REAL REVIEW...HOPEFULLY BEFORE MY HAIR TURNS GREY AND FALLS OUT...

Fantastic! Dare I say it was an even better read than book 1...yes, I believe I dare say...

EFFORTLESS is a continuation and book 2 in the THOUGHTLESS series. It is as equally heart wrenching and emotional as the first book and the characters grow even more lovable, if that is even possible... I am already dying to read book 3, OMG I am like an addict! When is it coming? She hasn't even started on it from what I understand :-(

If you are looking for a great story with wonderful characters that will send your emotions reeling, then this really is a must read book for you!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 **THIS IS (HOPEFULLY) JUST A TEMPORARY REVEW UNTIL I HAVE A LITTLE MORE TIME

Wow! I will try to post a worthy review in a timely manner, but I am a little short on time and I have to dive right in to Book 2 in this series. But, In the mean time...

First off, I want to say: THIS IS NOT A YOUNG ADULT novel. I am not really sure why people have it shelved as one...maybe because these are kids in their early 20's??? The author shelves it as erotica, adult themed - I would definitely have to agree.

I can't say how much I love this book! It's heavy and hot and emotional and sexy and maddening... It is AWESOME!!!

In brief, the story is about a love triangle...where you love and hate all the characters, but mostly love-- actually all the characters in the book are fantastic and realistic. Oh! It's so good! Go and Get it!

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

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!
