-----------------------------------------------

My Review 

This was a great sexy, hot short from Jennifer Probst. 

The story is about Rick who is dealer at a Las Vagas casino. Rick's not had much luck with women just recently so a friend gives him a card for a club that gives it members a chance for their fantasies to come true.  This where Tara comes in as she is the women who is set up with Rick to recreate each other fantasies. However Tara had a bad experience with men after her ex left her with both emotional and physical scars. Tara only want's one night with Rick she doesn't feel ready for any more. After one night together they part ways however Rick can't forget Tara so he give her time and then peruses Tara to try and give them a chance.  

Although this is a really short read I loved the plot, there are plenty of really hot, steamy scenes and great chemistry between Rick and Tara. I loved how patient Rick was with Tara. As Jen warns readers at the start of the book this book is different from Jennifer's other books as it got more elements of BDSM but for me it only contained very light BDSM compared to other BDSM I have read.  I really enjoyed this short story and I look forward to read the Steel Brothers Books.

EXCERPT



Youth and first love is so fragile,he finally said. Im sorry you were hurt. But you not only survived, you thrived. You made your own way, Tara. Thats very cool. Too many people out there wouldnt have the strength. They wouldve stayed.

Their gazes locked. Emotion shimmered around them, along with a leashed sexual energy that brought a low growl to his lips. Her pupils dilated, and Rick knew she was as turned on as he was. It was time to talk about other things in their relationship. Things he wanted to explore and dive into.

    The waiter brought their food, added fresh Parmesan, and glided away.

    “I want to fuck you.

Release Blitz- Resentment by Nicole London




Title: Resentment
Author: Nicole London
Genre: Contemporary Romance
 Release Date: October 29, 2015



Blurb

Re•sent•ment (noun)

The act of hating – no, fucking loathing Dean Collins. (Yes, I’m well aware that’s not the actual definition, but it might as well be...)

It’s been ten years since we've seen each other and the feelings are still as strong.

I’m not going to bore you with all the details of how our love was once intoxicating, consuming, and perfect.

Because it was . . . until it wasn't.

I've been fine without him. I haven’t missed his cruelty, his coldness and his spite.

And after the ugliest breakup in the history of breakups, I forced myself to move on.


Year by year, the feelings I had for him slowly drifted away, but one encounter with him recently changed everything. One encounter made me realize how the heart doesn't forget shit, and how my mind is going to have to work overtime to make sure I never forget my definition of resentment.

Excerpt

“Are you coming to the pep rally tonight?” he asks.

“Probably not.”

“Why?”

“School spirit isn’t really my thing. No offense, but…football isn’t either.”

He laughs, and I suddenly realize that the two of us have never talked about football during our sessions together. In fact, whenever I’ve brought it up, he’s changed the subject to something else.

“Well,” he says, letting my hand go. “You should come for me instead.”

“What? What do you mean?”

“I mean, since you’re not into school spirit or football, but you’re clearly into me, you can make an exception and come tonight.”

“You’re getting quite presumptuous lately.” I put on my best poker face. “Do I need to help you with that definition?”

“Not when I know the true word you’re looking for is cognizant.” He grins, stepping back. “I hope to see you tonight.”

“I’ll think about it.”

“I’m sure you always do.” He gives me a look so sexy that I almost melt into the floor.

Goddamn, Dean Collins…

Blog Tour- The Fall Up by Aly Martinez

Maybe there’s only one direction to go when two people fall
in love at rock bottom—up.

NOW AVAILABLE!

I wanted to jump.
He made me fall.

As a celebrity, I lived in the public eye, but somewhere along the way, I’d lost myself in the spotlight. 

Until he found me.

Sam Rivers was a gorgeous, tattooed stranger who saved my life with nothing more than a simple conversation.

But we were both standing on that bridge for a reason the night we met. The secrets of our pasts brought us together—and then tore us apart.

Could we find a reason to hold on as life constantly pulled us down?

Or maybe there’s only one direction to go when two people fall in love at rock bottom—up.

My Review 

5 Fabulous stars 

I really, really loved this book by Aly Martinez. 

The story is about Levee and Sam. They meet on a bridge when Levee is thinking about ending it all. She is a popstar with the world at her feet but often feels that it's all too much. Sam is on the bridge to be close to a loved one. Sam strikes up with his designer shoes (he doesn't know who she is for the beginning of the book and gives her this nickname). I absolutely loved Sam's character I loved some of the lines he came out with, he know exactly what it to say to make Levee cheer-up. I loved that her fame also never phased him. 

I loved this story, Levee and Sam had great chemistry and the banter was great. There were times I had a really big smile on my face whilst reading. It's told from both of their POV of views which I loved. Aly Martinez is quickly becoming one of  my favorite authors.

Excerpt
“You’re overdoing it, Lev. I know this job isn’t exactly nine-to-five, but it’s not twenty-four-seven, either. You have to stop being Levee Williams all the time and just be you.”
“I know,” I responded.
I didn’t though. I felt like a robot parading around in a lost woman’s body.
Smile.
Pose.
Turn.
Toss in the occasional song.
Repeat.
What little time I did manage to carve out for myself was spent at various children’s hospitals across the country.
Smile.
Pose.
Turn.
Watch a child die.
Repeat.
With every day that passed, the smile became less and less genuine, the pose more and more forced, and the turn took me further and further away from who I really was.
My career was soaring while, personally, I was plummeting. Every single day felt like a terrifying free fall in no particular direction. I was stuck in the middle with no way up—or down.
“You remember that girl, right?” Henry asked, tucking a hair behind my ear.
I nodded.
I did remember her. She was fun and carefree. She loved going out and dancing at nightclubs until the very last song played. She slept until noon if she could. Then, fueled by coffee alone, she’d spend the day with a guitar strapped around her neck and a notepad at her side. She had a huge heart, but she knew her limitations.
Oh, I remembered that girl. I just couldn’t figure out how to get back to her.

Review- Uncovering Desire by Kacey Shea



Uncovering Desire by Kacey Shea October 27, 2015

Synopsis:
Jonathan Beltran is adjusting to life as a civilian after an eight year military career. With a booming private investigation business and good friends to count on, life is headed in a positive direction. Coupled with his fierce will and strength, Jon will learn if his training has prepared him for this next journey.
Life is never boring for the ever-positive, smart-mouthed, fearless Kate Bryant. When unexpected events leave her temporarily homeless, she accepts an offer of a free place to stay with Jonathan. The challenges of working with rock stars, living with Jon, and finally confronting ghosts of her past may prove to be too much.
Uncovering Desire, book two in the Uncovering Love series, is a full length, contemporary romance, and can be read as a standalone.

My Review 

I really enjoyed this second book in the series. I really liked Jonathan's character in book 1 Uncovering Love and I am so glad he got his own books and Kate too!!

Jon owns a PA company with his best friend Evie. Evie and Jon both have a mutual friend Kate. Kate has always had a crush on Jon but never acted on it because she knew Jon had a crush on Evie. However now that Evie is happily loved up will Kate and Jon finally get together? 

I loved Kate's character she is very fiery and knows what she want but she also hides behind her 'slutty' personality. However it was at the times when Kate lets this slide that we get to see her real side. Jon was really judgmental of Kate in book 1 so I was interested to see how they would work together. They do have great chemistry together and I loved them together. 

There are times where this book really made me laugh and at other's I had tears in my eyes. I really enjoyed this book, I can't wait to read future books by author Kacey Shea.

Only Cain has changed.

He’s bitter, angry and for a good reason.

At least that’s what he’s been telling himself for the past six years.

Cain Bexley had fifteen minutes to destroy his marriage to protect the woman he loved.  He did the only thing he could think of to make her leave. He jumped in bed with a woman. Life at home was a lie. Lives were at risk.

People are not who they seem.

Not even Cain’s dad or Calla’s parents are who they say they are. When Calla shows up begging for a divorce. He shows her exactly who he is and no way in hell will he sign those papers.

What happens when six years later she returns? The only woman he has loved. A woman who has changed herself! When all the lies surface will she be able to forgive everyone she has trusted in her life or will Calla turn to the man who destroyed her?

My Review
I really enjoyed this MC/ Mafia read.
The story is about Cain and Calla. The story begins with getting married the 18 and them telling each of there families there good news, however shortly after their wedding Calla catch's Cain with another woman and disappears. But is everything as it seems? Calla then returns and she wants to free and she wants a divorce. However once Calla walks back into Cain's life he refuses to loose her again and there is also the fact that so many things have changed since she left. Everything Calla thought she knew about her family has completely changed.
I really enjoyed this book it was fast paced and unlike many of the books secrets were revealed from around the 10% mark and kept coming. I really liked that there were lots of twists and turns and I loved Cain's persistence towards ensuring he doesn't lose Calla again. What I loved was that you not only got a romance story but you also got suspense, murder, mystery and drama all thrown. At times I did think that Calla's emotions were very quick to change one minute she was upset then next she angry and a fighter but maybe that was just how she dealt with everything she was learning about her family. I loved Calla and Cain's characters and I also loved Manny's character, I really hope he is the focus for the next book. 
Once I started this one I really got into the story and didn't want to put it down and towards the end I was holding breath I little scarred as to where the author was taking story. I have not read any of Kathy's book before but I will adding them to my TBR list and I can't wait for the next book in the series.
Overall a great book with love, murder, suspense and plenty of drama to keep you on the edge of your seat.

Excerpt
My brain finally catches up with the fact I’m naked in front of Cain for the first time in six years. I sit up in a rush of water and bring my knees to my chest, resting my chin on top of them.
“You... you shouldn’t be in here.”
“You wouldn’t answer me,” he says exasperatedly.
“Well, no shit. My head was underwater. That still doesn’t give you the right to just walk in here.”
“When you don’t answer me when I’m standing right outside of a wide open door, not to mention the fact this is my house... well, then I think I have every fucking right. Don’t you?”
“No, I don’t. You could have just peeked in and seen I was fine and waited. Was this some kind of ploy for you to get me right where you wanted me? Are you so afraid that the minute you turn your back on me I will up and try to leave? Are you going to watch my every move? Or did you have an ulterior motive in suggesting I shower, just so I could strip down naked and you could make damn sure I didn’t go anywhere? So tell me what the hell it is, because this back and forth, hot and cold game you’ve started is really starting to piss me the hell off!”
I glare up at him, not quite able to read his eyes.
What I do know is that the sexual tension between the two of us is so strong, it’s working triple overtime. There’s only one tiny little obstacle in our way... and that would be our past. The fact that I can’t trust him. He broke every bit of it the same day he broke my heart. One of us needs to give in, take charge so we can just fuck and move on.
