Sharp Change 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers

 

 

Only the hottest sex can cool a wolf in heat...

After her sister is bitten by a werewolf, geneticist Sophia Reece begins researching shape-shifters and isolates a gene she calls Furry Beast--FB for short. But in her excitement over her discovery--dancing in the lab is never a good idea--she has a teeny little accident with the samples, one canine, one feline, and winds up landing on the syringes, pointy side up.

Werewolf Chase is head over heels in lust with Sophia. He can't stop thinking about the human's sexy body or how badly he wants to get her naked. But she acts as if he has fleas. So why, all of a sudden, does she stare at him like a wolf in heat? And what smells like cat?

When she experiences her first mating heat, Sophia isn't prepared for the new feelings she's experiencing, and her secret desire for Chase refuses to remain under wraps. For Chase, this is his wildest fantasy come true--to finally get his hands on the curvy, caramel-skinned Latina. But when some serious predators come sniffing around her research, Sophia will have to find out what she's really made of, and Chase will have to decide if he's man--or wolf--enough to make things 

permanent..

Review

  Sophia is a geneticist whose sister was attacked by a werewolf, so she decides to find a cure. When she finally isolates the gene she ends up accidentally injecting herself with two animals. She doesn’t tell anyone but everyone finds out when she goes into heat. Chase has wanted Sophie a long time and now that she is in heat he decides to make his move. Someone knows what Sophie has discovered and wants her research, now Chase has to protect Sophie and decide if he wants her as his mate. Sophie is a funny woman, she is clumsy, giving and has some self esteem issues. Chase is an alpha womanizer, he wants Sophia and he protects her when needed. This was a cute story with some suspense thrown in to shake things up. I liked the quirkiness of the heroine and the protectiveness of the hero. The sex scenes were hot and the mystery of who was behind the attempt to steal Sophia’s research added an extra conflict to the story. My only problem is that I wanted the story to be longer. I wanted more background on the characters and to see their life a little bit after their problem is solved. Other than that I really enjoyed the book.

Claire Nichols endured the CONSEQUENCES of Anthony Rawlings’ vendetta.
When she first arrived to his home, her goal was survival. Through strength and compartmentalization Claire captivated her captor. Her resilience in the face of his rule threatened Anthony’s well developed plan. Domination became desire and power turned to love.
Their passion and adoration in a world of opulence appeared perfect. Yet, reality was a roller coaster of emotion. Claire’s world teetered on the edge of sanity as Antony monitored her every move. When given the opportunity to flee, Claire drove away. A fateful decision which set a well laid plan into motion.
However, unbeknownst to either of them, there were others who saw past the perfect facade of Anthony Rawlings. There were others who saw the TRUTH. Conspiracy and unfulfilled promises result in an early prison release for Claire. Not just a release – a pardon. According to the law, her crime never happened!
Will it be that easy? Faced with freedom from her past... can Claire seize it? Can she build a new life, mend her broken spirit, become the woman she once was, and seek her own revenge? Or is it all a game? And does the game master have different plans?
How does Sophia Burke fit into the puzzle that is Tony and Claire? Will her presence affect the future of this well esteemed man? Can he dominate twice? Is that his goal?

When buried sins are discovered they threaten not only Tony and Claire’s future -- but their very lives! Will the TRUTH be revealed in time?

REVIEW

Wow, another great story in this series. Once again Aleatha Romig has kept my mind reeling with all the different possibilities. Even though I believed I understood where things were at the end of this book, it has be brought to my attention that what I took as a forgone conclusion might actually once again be a wonderful mislead by this fabulously tricky author.
As much as I hated certain character  at the end of the previous book and  thought I would never ever change my opinion , how could I when his crimes were so heinous? I must admit (shamefully) that by the end of this story I was seriously seeing a different side to the much hated Tony. But do I believe it??

Hahaha that is what is so magic about this book!! Who is the good guy?? Who is the bad guy?? I swear my head is spinning round like the chick from Exorcist at how quickly things can change in this wonderfully laid out story.
I found this one also to be much better paced. I wasn't skipping things, even though after thinking about the previous book more, I believe the way it was paced was important and on purpose.
So many wonderful twists and now I have to wait another year before I get any sort of real answers, ahhh so frustrating.

A highly addictive series that will keep you guessing and changing your mind up until the last page, well done again Aleatha Romig, you are awesome!!

Consequences 18

The following review is for 18+ readers.

Besieged by memories of a brutal abduction, Claire Nichols wakes in an unfamiliar bedroom, within a luxurious mansion. Her recollections have one common denominator, the man she just met, Anthony Rawlings.
Unbeknownst to Claire, for a very long time, she has been within Anthony’s sights. Many of the pivotal events in her life occurred, due to his sinister manipulation. Every action has a consequence, and his actions result in their chance meeting.
More than a psychological thriller, Consequences is a vivid story of one woman’s struggle to survive incomprehensible circumstances. Every aspect of her being suddenly depends upon the tall, wealthy, dark haired, dark eyed businessman. Anthony Rawlings is known to the world as prosperous, benevolent, and kind. Claire quickly learns that he can also be a menacing controlling captor.
With few options but concession, Claire attempts to earn her freedom, while enduring a hellish existence that truly appears perfect. Persevering tests and trials, she struggles to retain her pure Midwest values and beliefs. Encouraged by memories of a loving upbringing, she gains strength in the simplest of joys: solitude in nature and good in the face of evil.
His goal in sight, Anthony’s calculated agenda encounters an unforeseen detour. He becomes captivated by Claire’s beauty, resilience, and determination. The interaction of these two compelling characters instigates strong emotions: fear, anger, love, and lust. Claire and Anthony’s tumultuous journey flows into uncharted waters of intrigue and passion.
Utilizing vivid detail, this 167,000-word novel unfolds like a movie, before the eyes of its readers. From the opening criminal abduction, through twists and turns, to the unlikely romantic thrills, the suspense climaxes as Anthony’s motivation becomes evident.
Anthony and Claire must decide if they will stay true to one another, or allow preceding actions to result in justifiable Consequences

Review

Deep breaths! Fluffy bunnies, chocolates and a bottle of whiskey are sure to help me get over this book.
Hold on to your hats, this book is a crazy mix of a wild ride and driving miss daisy.

It was slow; too much useless descriptions that just made it drag out. But I believe the author meant it to be that way to illustrate how awful Claire had it, in her downward spiral from normal to battered housewife, but it was too much, I started skipping bits and I never do that.
But in saying that it built this slow growing level of anxiety, like watching a train wreck I couldn't stop reading. I wanted to reach into the book and get Claire out of there, slap her (but she had a bit too much of that), Anthony really did a number on her.
The whole way through the book you get snippets and clues that sort of don't lead anywhere, you get inklings, and you know he is a bad guy, but then you think maybe he is just screwed up.

 Bad upbringing, like a Christian Grey but on steroids, you know? You find yourself questioning everything. What is Anthony up too?? What are all these two page bits with Nathaniel? Is that his dad? No, it's okay, he married her, he must have some feelings there, and then… oh my god did he just ………..?? God, did he kill……?? Oh god, has he arranged for her brother in law to………..?? What the f*#k???
Anthony is no hero; he is a bad, bad, bad man!! For those who started this under the misunderstanding that this was going to end up like.... say Kitty Thomas's Comfort Food, then you are wrong!!! He beats her, rapes her,(this is within the first few pages so no spoiler) Claire lives under constant fear and he slowly lures her into trusting him, then bam!!! He is the classic wife beating husband that we all hear about!

The ending…. the arrest, the destruction. You find out what it's all for and it's like “OH MY GOD!!!! Where is the justice in that??"

Althea Romig, you wrote a book that I couldn't put down, that made me feel a multitude of emotions (rage primarily at the end, but also fear, anxiety) but for the love of god I couldn't tell you if I enjoyed it. How do I rate something like this??

 I guess I have to put it down to the fact that I couldn't stop reading; I needed to know what was happening, I was totally under this books spell, fully engaged. Isn't that the sign of a good book?? Doesn't matter if the character repulsed me, that his mind trips, was screwing  with me, it was an amazing wild ride. So because of that I have rated this highly.

This book will drive you crazy; it will frustrate the hell out of you. But it is extremely well written and the author is on to something amazing if she can continue this mystery going at this level.

I read it, now for gods sake somebody please recommend me something light and fluffy with lots of good sex and maybe a bit of humor, I need it!

Switched

 

  

When Wendy Everly was six-years-old, her mother was convinced she was a monster and tried to kill her. It isn't until eleven years later that Wendy finds out her mother might've been telling the truth. With the help of Finn Holmes, Wendy finds herself in a world she never knew existed - and it's one she's not sure if she wants to be a part of.

Review

Switched is the first book in the Trylle Trilogy, it follows a young girl named Wendy who is really a changeling. All her life Wendy has been different than any one else, when she was six her mother was convinced that she wasn’t her real child so she tries to kill Wendy. When Wendy is seventeen a boy named Finn shows up and tells her that she was really was switched at birth and that she needs to go back to her real home. Wendy goes with Finn after being attacked, she goes with Finn and finds out she is royalty. Wendy doesn’t feel like she fits in at her new home either and there are people who are trying to keep her from becoming queen. Her love for Finn is forbidden but she is willing to give up anything to be with him. While Wendy is trying to figure out where she fits into this new world or if she even wants to be there, new threats arrive and change everything for her. I loved this book Wendy was smart and snarky, she wanted to change things and she didn't follow people blindly. Finn was a bit annoying, Wendy is trying to change things and he hanging on to old beliefs. This book was one of the better first books in a series that I have read. The characters were well rounded and the story really pulls you in from the beginning. I wanted to know what happened to the characters and I was mad because I didn't want the book to end.

Perfect Mate 18+

The following review is for 18+ reviews

 

  

"Monsters do exist...and they re the good guys. "

Lillian Rosewood leads an ordinary, boring life working as the manager of a psychiatric hospital. The highlights of her day, other than her skinny hot chocolate, are the hunky guards who work in the secure section. Until a late-night emergency is wheeled in.

Captain Jack Harper is insane, drop-dead gorgeous...and just had his abdomen shredded. Despite the fact they're not an emergency room, Lillian can't turn him away and risk a death on her hands. Unable to get the handsome soldier out of her mind, Lillian sneaks into the restricted area to check on him. What she finds is beyond belief. Somehow Jack has managed to heal himself from a near-fatal wound in mere hours.

When one of the doctors, Walker, attempts to rape her, things go from bad to worse. In the blink of an eye, Jack is loose and Walker is dead... and Lillian must accept a truth about her rescuer that will change her world forever. What if the patients aren't insane? What if their stories of secret government experiments and monsters are true?

Warning: Contains blood, mayhem and nude werewolves operating heavy weaponry. Large amounts of sarcasm and smart-ass vampires may offend some readers. No civilian hospital staff were harmed in the making of this story

Review

 Perfect mate is the first book in Mina Carters new Mate series, the army has created vampires, werewolves and zombies and now the wolves want there freedom. Lillian lives for her job as a psychiatrist and one day a man is brought into her facility with what looks like life threatening wounds. When she goes into check on him and is almost raped by one of the armies’ doctors she finds out that the man is not just a man but an alpha werewolf. He saves her then he lets the rest of his wolves free and the army sends in zombies and other men to kill them. The patient Jack knows that Lilly is his mate and he has to get her and the rest of his pack free from the hospital and find a way to save them from the government that created them and now wants to destroy them. Jack is a hot bad ass protector who takes charge and knows what needs to be done. Lilly is smart and cares for her patients but I think there she should be in the hospital and not working at the hospital. I really wanted to like this book, the description caught me right away, the book is well written and the idea of the government creating supernaturals was intriguing. The hero is hot and the secondary characters are funny and know how to kick butt. The vampire that is leading the team after them provides a nice challenge. But I just couldn't get over the fact that the heroine spent the entire time thinking about how hot the hero was and how much she wanted him. It's a romance so yes the main characters are supposed to want each other, however, the heroine is not supposed to be ready to die and start talking about the hero butt. There were so many times that Lilly started going on about Jacks body, how hot he was and what she wanted to do to him, that I just wanted to yell at her hey look around you may be dying at any second. While the premise was good and I did like most of the characters, I just couldn't get past the inappropriate timing of the comments from the heroine.

Charity Rising

 

 

 In this fast-paced, two-part sequel Charity is finally settling into her new role as alpha female to the Drake pack. With Prom and Graduation approaching, this should be the best time of her life, but something is wrong with Levi—dangerously wrong. With his odd behavior growing daily and her now blackening connection symbol, Charity is spurred into action. It’s a race against time, and any delay could result in the death of the only man she can ever love. Can she save him in time? If so, will their undying love and a stronger-than-ever heart connection be enough to withstand the damage created?
This installment in the Charity Series is fully loaded with everything from unlikely alliances, battles and romance, to humor, mystery, and even betrayal, as well as a few other surprises along the way. You have officially been warned

Review

Charity Rising is the conclusion to Charity and Levis love story. Charity is the alpha female of the pack, she is worrying that Levi will have to take another wife if she doesn’t get pregnant and have a boy. She is trying to keep the packs secret and for some reason Levi is acting weird. When Levis connection symbol turns black and everyone thinks Charity cheated on Levi, Charity has to find out what is going or they both will die. Charity is very different in this story than she was in the last, she has lost a lot of the hard edge that surround her. Levi is harder though, he is the pack alpha so he has had to make hard decisions and you can see how it is affecting him.


>>>>>>>Spoiler Alert……Don’t read this if you don’t want part of the book spoiled for you. I liked how they found out that Levi had a twin. I get that Charity didn't know the Levi had a twin, but when his identity is revealed she still can’t tell them apart. Come on if I were Levi I would be super pissed that my wife just flashed herself in lingerie to my brother because she thought it was me. Spoiler ended<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<


I liked how the series ended I thought it was very appropriate, even though I did have a problem with certain parts of the book I still loved it. Once again Kinney creates a vivid and realistic world with just enough conflict to keep the reader interested. I am sad to see the end of Charity and Levi, but I think that the ending was done wonderfully.

Bound by Blood 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers

 

 

It’s an Immortal War…

Vampires and werewolves have been blood enemies for centuries, but now a new threat is rising...demons are escaping from hell and those demons are intent on wiping out both the vamps and the werewolves.

In order to stop the demons, pureblood vampire princess Morgan LaBeaux agrees to the treaty offered by werewolf alpha Jace Vaughn. She'll mate with him, share her blood with him...and in return, the wolves will aid the vampires in this battle.

But Morgan doesn’t realize just how dangerous the wolves can truly be. Jace has been waiting years to claim her. He’s set a trap for his princess, and now that he has her, Jace doesn’t plan to let her go. He’ll send the demons back to hell, and he’ll keep his vampiress—forever.


Warning: This novella is a sexy paranormal romance. As such, it contains vampires, werewolves, and demons--oh, my! It also contains hot sex and adult language. You have been warned! 

Review

Morgan is a vampire princess who is sent to Jace the werewolf alpha, in hopes of uniting the two species so that they can defeat the demons and the close the door to hell. When they meet, both of them realize that their mating will be in more than name only. Morgan is a good combination of innocence and knowledge. She stands up for what she believes in and fights hard for the people she loves. Jace is a hot alpha werewolf who has a past filled with violence. He has watched and protected Morgan for years without her knowing it. He is willing to go to hell itself to keep her safe. This novella while short was a good story. Things were a bit rushed and I wish it could have been a full length novel, because I loved wanted to see more of the main characters. Eden has a way of describing the fight scenes that make me feel as if I am in the middle of it. She made me see the sprays of blood and I could smell the brimstone. The romance was fast and intense, I wanted the couple to work out. When I heard how Jace had protected Morgan my heart melted. I liked this novella and the only thing that could make this story better would be to make it a full length book

The Dom who Loved Me (Masters and Mercenaries#1) 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers.

A routine mission…

Sean Taggart is hunting a deadly terrorist, and his only lead is the lovely Grace Hawthorne. She's the executive assistant for an employment agency Sean suspects is a front for illegal activities. To get the truth, he is going to have to get very close to Grace, a task he is all too eager to undertake when he discovers her deliciously submissive nature.
…turns into a dangerous seduction.
Soon, Grace Hawthorne is living a double life. By day, she is the widowed mother of two college-aged sons. By night, she submits to Sean's every dark desire. She's living out her wildest fantasies of pleasure—intimate acts of trust she's only read about. As passion engulfs her, a murderer strikes, and Grace learns that Sean has a deeply hidden agenda. Will Sean choose his mission and break her heart or be the Master of her dreams?

Review

First of all, I would just like to thank the cover artist of this book because to be honest , that gorgeous front cover is what drew me to read this book. It is irresistible.
This was an interesting, sexy story. Sean uses his skills as a Dom to get close to Grace. Manipulating her to get the information he is after.This leads to some very steamy scenes. It didn't, however, feel like it took over the book.
Unfortunately this story was really slow going for me for the first 50%. I couldn't connect to the characters, so couldn't get into the book or sympathise with anything. However about halfway through things, got a bit more interesting and I found myself settling in and enjoying the action.
There is humour to this story, so it's not all suspense, action and heavy emotion a nice reprieve from some of the books I am read lately.
It was a bit sexy, I find I really would like to visit Club Sanctum. The supporting characters of this group were really great and as a result I cannot wait to see more of them in future books.
A good start to a new erotic, romantic suspense.

The Nasty Vamp 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers.

 
All I wanted was to be a normal, ordinary girl whose biggest worry was what to wear to her twenty-first birthday party. I needed for a few hours to forget about my mother’s murder and the monsters that inhabit the night. With all my heart I wished for a little romance, for a man who could make me forget the bloodshed and death. I longed for a prince charming who would sweep me off my feet and kiss me under the stars. Then fate kicked me in the teeth and granted my wish.
My perfect prince charming turned out to be a vampire. 

Review

Bunny was supposed to be a hunter but on her twenty-first birthday she gets drunk and gives her virginity and power to master vamp Ian McGregor, so she blows up his cars. She keeps blowing up his cars and he keeps hunting her. Bunny is part of a prophecy that she does not know about, but everyone else sure does. Now there are master vampires after her, zombie like creatures, a crime boss and her crazy dysfunctional family to deal with. Bunny was a kick ass heroine; she was sarcastic and always managed to get herself into trouble. Most of the time it’s her fault, but sometimes stuff just kinda happens to her. I loved this book, it was fast paced and it didn't slow down one bit. The writing was great; the scenes were descriptive, colorful and full of humor. Gotta love a scene with a drunken nun type vampire, a vampire hunter and a policeman apologizing to his superiors for throwing said vampire in a trash can, which he didn't really do, while the vampire has maggots in her hair. My only complaint is I really wanted the book to be longer, I really would have liked to see Bunny and her first interaction with Ian not just be told about it. Beyond that loved the book and recommend it to anybody looking for a fast paced humorous read.

Warning: This book contains explicit sex, graphic language, some violence, a bit of bondage, and a Sidhe Lord determined to claim and protect what is his.

 Review

Great start to a new series!
This book was a total winner for me. I love any story with a Fae theme and this one was packed full of it with leprechauns, vampires, seelie, unseelie, various courts (gray, white and black), definitely enough to keep my attention.
Mix all those in with a good storyline and a steamy hot couple and you have a pretty enjoyable book.
I really like Leo and Ruby although I would of liked to have found out a bit more about her background, especially why she thought she was so unworthy.
This was a short story though and usually you miss out on huge details not necessary to the plot. There was still a lot of information packed in there but not overmuch, really it was just right.
There was definitely enough to make me interested in finding out more, so a job well done in my book.
Can't wait for the next one with Duncan, Jaden and Moira, it promises to be a delicious little tale.

The Madness of Lord Ian Mackenzie 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers.

The year is 1881. Meet the Mackenzie family--rich, powerful, dangerous, eccentric. A lady couldn't be seen with them without ruin. Rumors surround them--of tragic violence, of their mistresses, of their dark appetites, of scandals that set England and Scotland abuzz.
The youngest brother, Ian, known as the Mad Mackenzie, spent most of his young life in an asylum, and everyone agrees he is decidedly odd. He's also hard and handsome and has a penchant for Ming pottery and beautiful women.
Beth Ackerley, widow, has recently come into a fortune. She has decided that she wants no more drama in her life. She was raised in drama--an alcoholic father who drove them into the workhouse, a frail mother she had to nurse until her death, a fussy old lady she became constant companion to. No, she wants to take her money and find peace, to travel, to learn art, to sit back and fondly remember her brief but happy marriage to her late husband.
And then Ian Mackenzie decides he wants her.
The first of a new historical series

Review

This truly was a romance novel of a different calibre. I don't believe I have ever come across a tortured hero quite like Ian Mackenzie. Truly tortured, you will have never met an hero like him.
Imagine what it was like back in the 1800's being born with some sort of high functioning autism.
Poor man, ice baths, beatings and electric shocks, what a nightmare. His own brother rescues him from the nightmare after there dad the duke dies,thank goodness, but he still believes himself truly mad and distrusts himself always.
Beth, a wonderful, genuine, caring, heroine seems to understand him as no other does, even his own family.
I do not think of him as Lord Ian Mackenzie, aristocratic brother of a duke and well beyond my reach; not as the Mad Mackenzie, an eccentric people stare at and whisper about.
To me, he is simply Ian.”
This review is going to dissolve in to a gush of feelings, but isn't that in itself a huge compliment? For a book to affect you so? I am not going to be able to do this book any justice going on and on about it, you seriously just have to read it.
Let's just say I fell in love with Lord Ian Mackenzie and his Beth. I felt such happiness knowing that he had found her and with her some comfort and happiness unlike he had never had before. If there ever was a man who deserved it, it's Ian.
This is simply historical romance at its best!
His story is emotional, mental illness is a difficult and misunderstood condition today,let alone in the 1800's. I think Jennifer Ashley did a fantastic job portraying Asperger's Syndrome in Ian, she made it really realistic.
Great read, with great characters and a very different storyline.
I will definitely be continuing this series. I am eager to read of his other brothers Hart, Cameron and Mac

YA Paranormal Romance recommended for ages 16 years and up

Review

I know in my previous review I noted that I think young adult is for 16+, I still believe that and I am really happy to see that it was noted on the book, I just had not seen it. Ok now onto Blood Past the second book in the Warriors of Ankh trilogy, I loved it just as much as the first book. There are many new and interesting characters introduced in this book as well as several new threats to Eden. At the beginning of the book Eden is still a soul eater and she while she know she can trust the Ankh she still does not feel like she can.Eden loves Cyrus and she is very close to Valeria, but she is still mad at Noah for lying to her and she feels like he has betrayed her. They go to Scotland and we meet Eden’s mothers Neith family. The grandmother gives blood and Eden gets it transfused into her and then she starts changing to full Ankh. She has to die to do this and this is the first time that we really see how much Noah loves Eden.Eden wakes up and starts adjusting to her new status as an Ankh. She becomes friends with Tobe and starts to learn how to fight. She is still mad at Noah and trying to get over Romany killing Stellan. Then Noah and Eden’s grandmother get kidnapped by Eden’s cousin and they fly back to the states. Her cousin gives her the choice of killing Mhairi or Noah; she doesn't have to make the decision because Darius shows up and kills all the soul eaters. You got to give Samantha Young some series kudos, she knows how to write. The characters are again very believable and have a lot of depth and personality. Emotions are higher in this book than the last one and we get more romance but it does not over power the story. The book is not just a copy of the previous book with a few new problems thrown in; Eden and Noah have grown a lot and changed. An old problem gets resolved but since its not the focus of the book it does not seem repetitive. New problems keep it fresh and unpredictable. I love the book; anybody looking for a good solid read should pick this book up.

YA Paranormal Fiction for mature teens+ (some content may not be suitable for younger readers)

Review

 First of all my opinion of what a young adult book and what other people think a young adult book is, is totally different. I think a young adult novel is for people 16+ maybe 15 depending on their emotional maturity level. So yes I believe that this book is a young adult book, even with the prologue describing the naked tortured woman, the screams that Eden continually hears from her fathers and cousins "play room" and the graphic descriptions in the fight scenes. Ok that being said I loved this book, yes I know after listing those things is sounds twisted, but this book was really well written. I loved how Young spent a lot of time describing the feelings of all the characters. She didn't make any of them perfect, the flaws she gave the characters made the story better. There was none of the boy meets girl and falls in love and the girl doesn't know why but she just can't live without the boy. No Eden and Noah are friends and when she finds out that he lied to her she gets pissed. She doesn't forgive him because he says he is sorry and was doing it for her own good. No she says frick you, leave me alone. Even though she is mad at Noah she still does not kill him, but its more her fighting her nature than actually forgiving him for what he did. I can't wait to read the next book to find out what happens next.

Cum For Bigfoot 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers

 

   

Book 1 of The Monster Sex Series

Review

I read this purely out of curiosity and the whole " what the?"type thing. All I can say is, it  has to get an A  for effort in going there. It just ended though,  I sort of wanted to know how their lives were afterwards. It really was that sicker side of me that enjoyed this. You know that side that looks at a car accident just to see what you will see? That side. Anyway, what a title, what a book. I don't know if I would recommend this to anyone. I sort of felt a little dirty myself just reading it.

Sleepwalker 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers

 

 

  

It’s not that Micayla Lange is afraid of the clinking she hears coming from the first floor of the empty McMansion she’s housesitting for her uncle Nicco. She’s a cop, after all. It’s just that finding out her boyfriend was cheating on her was enough drama for one night. Now she’s alone on New Year’s Eve, wearing flannel pajamas and wielding a Glock 22 as she zeroes in on the unmistakable source of the sound: Uncle Nicco’s private office.

Jason Davis steals things for a living, so unexpected developments are a natural part of the job. Getting caught red-handed by a hot, pigtail-sporting police officer in what is supposed to be a gangster’s deserted house is just one more twist in the game. Kind of like finding incriminating photos in Nicco Marino’s safe, only to discover the cop—and the security cameras—have gotten a real good look at his face.

Unfortunately for Mick, she also got a good look at the damned pictures. Her “uncle” might love her like family, but if he knows she’s seen evidence that implicates him in the murder of a city councilman, she doesn’t like her chances. Which is why she’s having a hard time reconciling her professional instincts with what she is rapidly concluding is an inescapable fact: She’s about to help a criminal get away with a suitcase full of stolen money. And she’s going with him.

Mick and Jason’s race for their lives hurtles them through the dangerous Michigan wilderness on speedboat and snowmobile. As their adventure heats up and their enemies close in, Mick is torn between her duty to the force and the combustible passion engulfing her and her unlikely partner in crime. She’ll have to turn Jason in sooner or later…if they survive. But will they ever get a second chance at love?

Review

Micayla is a cop house sitting for her uncle when she hears noise coming from her uncle’s office. She goes to investigate and she sees a man in his safe she also sees pictures of her uncle killing a congressman. She helps the guy getaway and goes with him; they are chased by her uncle’s security. When they find out Mick is working with the guy, she becomes a threat and has to be killed. Jason is a thief, when he planned on stealing the money he didn’t know he was going to be getting pictures of a crime. Now he has to find out how to get away alive and keep Mick from arresting him. The heroine Mick is a cop, yet she doesn’t know her uncle is a criminal. I found it really hard to believe that she was supposed to be this super cop, but she was really clueless about a lot of things. Her instincts her bad and she trusted a lot of the wrong people. Jason was a criminal but he was upfront about it and he knew Mick was going to arrest him but he still helped her. His instincts were really good and he was smart and resourceful. The couple had a lot of chemistry and the book was fast paced and entertaining. I did like the book; I just wanted the heroine to be better than she really was.

Lumberjack in Love 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers

City slicker Ami Jordan was just dumped by her back-stabbing boyfriend, has no job prospects, and can't find a decent cup of coffee in the entire state of Vermont. The last thing she needs is a sexy, bearded lumberjack complicating her life. Even if he’s smart, talented, and has the hottest ass she’s ever seen.
Tree house builder, environmental champion, and Bulldog owner Marcus Anderson has no patience for flatlanders with an attitude. But when landscape designer Ami Jordan shows up at his log cabin, he suddenly develops a hankering for a high-maintenance city gal. Now his house looks like a jungle, his recycling is in disarray, and his libido's on fire.

He's a lumberjack in love.

Review

I have never heard of Penny Watson before and at this time I have no idea if she has anymore books available, but I will tell you this, if she does I will ge checking her out. This book was the perfect balance of sweet romance without being cheesy or corny. The humour was great without seeming forced and the sex factor had just the right amount of steam. And how could I not read a book about a lumberjack( picture hugh jackman as wolverine) ? Well the answer is simple, I couldn't. Perfect lazy day...moreI waIiiii I have never heard of Penny Watson before and at this time I have no idea if she has anymore books available, but I will tell you this, if she does I will be checking her out. This book was the perfect balance of sweet romance without being cheesy or corny. The humour was great without seeming forced and the sex factor had just the right amount of steam. And how could I not read a book about a lumberjack? (picture Hugh Jackman in Wolverine, drool.)  Well the answer is simple, I couldn't. Perfect lazy day read, short sweet and very satisfying. P.s. Since reading this book , it has had a new front cover made, what do you think? I sort of like the first one, it has a charm about it.     Post by:

When You Dare 18+

The following review is for 18+ readers

  

The tougher they are, the harder they fall…

Professional mercenary Dare Macintosh lives by one hard and fast rule: business should never be personal. If a cause appeals to him and the price is right, he'll take the mission he's offered. But then the lovely Molly Alexander asks him to help her track down the men who'd had her kidnapped—and for the first time, Dare's tempted to combine work with pleasure.

Fiercely independent, Molly vows to trust no one until she's uncovered the truth. Could the enemy be her powerful, estranged father? The ex-fiancé who still holds a grudge? Or the not-so-shy fan of her bestselling novels? As the danger heats up around them, the only anchor Molly has is Dare himself. But what she feels for him just might be the most frightening thing of all…

Review

Molly was kidnapped and she doesn't know who did it or why. She hires Dare to find out who wants her to disappear. Dare tries to find out who is after Molly and keep her safe because she means more to him than just a job. The more Molly finds out about the people around her the more lost she feels. While Dare is her anchor she has to find out if she can really trust him and her own feelings. Molly is a strong heroine, even when she is in bad situations she takes charge and is always thinking of a way out. She is a writer and speaks her mind. Dare is a big muscled mercenary, when he gets involved with Molly he puts everything he has into keeping her safe. The book had me interested from the beginning; I stayed up all night reading so I could find out what was going on. When I thought I knew who did it, something else would happen and I would change my opinion. I loved the book, the suspense kept me interested and the love story had me rooting for the couple. I will be keeping this as one of my go to reads.
