One night only with a handsome stranger.

Older. Alluring. Savage. Dominant.
No last names or expectations.
Just raw, carnal, filthy pleasure.
I never thought I would see him again.
Until the first day of class. He’s my new professor.
And my ex-boyfriend’s father.
He has a world of secrets in his eyes and the weight of the world on his shoulders. I should stay away from him, but the more I try, the more consumed he gets.
His possessiveness is rivaled only by his secretive nature. He knows everything about me, but mystery surrounds him. Shadows threaten the entire university…and our forbidden love.

EXCERPT:

“What’s going on out here?” Professor Stratford asks.
Panic pricks every inch of my body. “Nothing.”
He peruses me with deep interest, his dark gaze taking in my tense stance, my messenger
bag clutched to my chest like a shield, the anxiety I’m barely holding back. He turns to Brandon, who shifts his weight, trying to look innocent but with defiance coming through.
“Brandon?” he asks, his voice low.
I hadn’t realized he would know him. After all, Professor Stratford is new to campus. And he teaches an advanced class in the Humanities Department, something Brandon doesn’t need to take as part of his MBA track program.
“Talking to my girlfriend,” Brandon says, his voice tight. “Or do you have a problem with that? Maybe you’d like to get a transcript of our conversation.”
My eyes widen. That’s a super intense way to speak to a professor, especially one who did nothing more than step outside his own office. And it sounds weirdly... personal. “We’re not...um... We’re not dating anymore.”
Brandon glares at me, even more pissed off with an audience. “Maybe we would be if you hadn’t gone and slept with—”
An involuntary squeak escapes me.
The man I slept with is standing right beside us, watching us with too-perceptive eyes. “Do you need assistance, Ms. Hill?”
“No, thank you. I’m done talking with him.” I turn to Brandon. “Please leave.”
My ex-boyfriend gets a sulky expression. “I didn’t mean to get so mad, Annie. It just took me by surprise, that’s all. Let’s meet up after class.”
“She asked you to go,” comes Professor Stratford’s voice, silky with threat.
Brandon doesn’t seem to recognize the danger. “I’m an adult now, Dad. You can’t tell me what to do anymore. You can’t send me to my room or ground me.”
For a second, a sweet second, I think it’s a joke. The way Daisy rolled her eyes and said, okay, Mom, when I asked her to put her seat belt on in the cab ride over to the hotel.
For that second, I can believe that these two men, my past and present, my ex-boyfriend and my one-night stand, aren’t related to each other.

Book Release Blast for Bad Dogs by Riley Nash (REVIEW)…..

 From the first page to the last readers will find this an intense story of two struggling souls finding love and acceptance in each other's arms in this dark read that weaves an epic web of empowerment.  Keep reading to get a tempting taste of Bad Dogs by Riley Nash, along with my impressions of it, then add this first installment in the Dirty Strays series to your bookshelf too!

I see you, Roman. You want to fight me, and then you want to be so good for me.

Kink is a rich man’s game—high-end clubs, dungeons full of toys. I’m a dirt-poor trailer park boy who makes all his own gear. But I have a plan. If I can film viral BDSM videos, I can rake in enough cash to get my friends and I out of here before we become another gang violence statistic.
First, I need a sub, someone beautiful and obedient. Anyone but the new boy that just moved into town.
He’s huge and feral and angry, he never speaks, and he’s living in the same house as a cop. He couldn’t be a worse choice. But when I look into his eyes, the flash of submission I see there has me obsessed.
I want him. And I, Scout Moreno, always get what I want.
A gritty, emotional story featuring BDSM, a smaller dom/bigger sub, praise kink, a secret relationship, and found family.

BUY here.

MY IMPRESSIONS OF THIS BOOK:

Wow!  I'm left emotionally drained after reading this unforgettable story, left feeling bruised but hopeful by the connection formed between Roman and Scout.  It's a dark read, an unvarnished look at harsh truths between two people who've experienced the worst that life has to offer, and managed to emerge from the wreckage to find their HEA.

Roman's a larger than life character from the moment he comes on the scene, but he's also a broken man beaten down by his police officer brother in scenes that repeatedly broke my heart.  Adding to Roman's struggles is the fact that he's mute, a condition made worse in stressful situations or around certain people...which his brother also uses to his advantage.  Whereas Roman used to have his grandparents for support, and as a safe haven, their deaths have left him emotionally adrift and he now harms himself when his anger gets to be too much.  His grandparents raised him and their loss is vividly depicted, leaving a profound impact on him that brought tears to my eyes. Throughout this epic tale I was drawn to Roman, wanting to hug the (truly) gentle giant's pain away, while desperately wanting SOMEONE (anyone) to just LISTEN to him. Roman's mutism was a compelling foundation between him and Scout as their togetherness became a new safe haven for him, a place for acceptance as Scout (and his friends Becks and Dallas) learned sign language in order to communicate easier with him.  This new-found family put a smile on my face, showing that even in darkness there are moments of brightness courtesy of Scout and his friends.

Scout too got put through the wringer, coming from a childhood of poverty and surrounded by drug addicts, getting left on his own at a young age.  He didn't give up without a fight though, determined to make a better life for himself and those he calls family.  He's a protector at his core, determined to do whatever necessary to give comfort, and he becomes laser-focused on Roman the moment he sets eyes on him. Theirs was a relationship that was truly touching, one nicely balanced between sweet words/deeds along with the eroticism of a beginning dom/sub connection.  Scout gave Roman the chance to just BE, gave him an outlet to ease his mind and body, and it was from there that they moved into their more erotic connection.  Their encounters for the internet luckily weren't the focus which allowed lots of encounters to be depicted that were full of heart and soul, moments that warmed my heart and were like a warm blanket giving comfort to them both.

From the first page to the last, with each turn of the page, this became an epic and unforgettable read.  It was a tale that takes you from the lowest of lows to rewarding highs, bringing together two broken and bruised men in a healing balm of love and acceptance.  Scout and Roman are beautifully brought to the pages, a perfectly imperfect pairing that just feels right, and I hope to see more of them in future installments.  Those installments I hope will bring readers greater insight into Becks and Dallas as the end of this book sets things up very temptingly for these sweet and supportive secondary characters...along with giving me a new author for my auto-buy list!

My rating for this is an A.

Book Blitz for Power Zones by Bronwyn Judde (GIVEAWAY)……

A woman from difficult beginnings is thrust into the world of modeling...a world of fame, fortune, and power.  Keep reading to get a tempting taste of Power Zones by Bronwyn Judde, then add this bdsm-fueled story of a woman discovering herself.  In honor of this second installment in the Billionaire Doms Duet, fill out the form below for the chance to win an e-copy of this book too!

I was discovered by a modeling agency in New York City and my life abruptly changed from one of poverty and self-doubt to where I was the one in control. Yes, men used me for sex but I used them too; seizing power to get what I wanted: sex and pain, preferably together.

But no one owns me, and definitely no one possesses my heart.
Money and fame are mine for the taking and I take them greedily as I put my miserable childhood behind me and find power, particularly over men.
But I have an elusive feeling that something is missing from my life. Is it possible to find a person who could love me enough to overcome the need to protect my heart? I doubt it.
Power really is enough for me.

EXCERPT:

Errol called me every day, and I met him for dinner or drinks almost every night. I felt safe to try more daring things with him than I had with Pete. I never really trusted Pete, but I’d liked his preference for rough sex. Errol was keen to show me all manner of debauchery, but he always gave me choices.
His apartment had a special room that he referred to as his ‘Pleasure Room.’ It had almost as many toys as Salacity, and a platform bed that had restraints and straps and a waterproof cover. He tried out a number of sex toys on me while I was strapped down, totally immobilized, and brought me to orgasm so many times it was painful.
I shrieked and screamed, but I never said “yellow,” let alone “red!”
One evening, after dinner at a crazy expensive restaurant, he sat me on his knee. “Tonight, we’re going to try a crop, but only if you want to. It will hurt, Danica. I’ll start light, but unless I hear you say “yellow,” it’s going to get harder. I know you have a lingerie show in a week, so I won’t do anything that won’t fade by then.”
“I want this. I’m sure I will like it.”
“I’d be surprised if you like it at first. The pain will change into pleasure at some point, but you may not be able to get there yet. Promise you’ll be honest with me?”
“I promise, Errol. I trust you. I kinda need pain sometimes. Will you tie me up?” He had already tied me a couple of times, using soft, red ropes.
“No Baby. Not until I know your tolerances.”

Book Release Blast for Where Waves Break by Julia Wolf (REVIEW)……

 As a huge fan of rockstar romances I couldn't read this one fast enough!  A grumpy rockstar gets a second chance with a quiet young woman who's stronger than she appears in this series-ender that readers will be drawn to.  Keep reading to get a tempting taste of Where Waves Break by Julia Wolf, then add this fourth installment in The Seasons Change series to your bookshelf!

My new boss is:

-A former rock star, turned grumpy mechanic

-A single dad
-My teenage crush
It was supposed to be a one week job. Nannying Diego Garza’s adorable, four-year-old son should’ve been easy.
But things get complicated when Diego catches me doing something I shouldn’t. When he confronts me, I do the only thing I can think of: get down on my knees.
To my surprise, he doesn’t get angry. Instead, Diego Garza calls me a good girl.
Then my one week job turns into all summer. I’m living with Diego and his son, desperately trying to forget how right it felt to be on my knees for him and how badly I crave to hear more of his praise.
Except Diego doesn’t forget. All day I take care of his son, and every hot summer night, he takes care of me. He tells me I’m perfect. Beautiful. Sexy.
I want to belong to Diego Garza in every way. But he hasn’t asked me to stay when this job is over at the end of summer.
The question is...when I’m not his nanny anymore, will I still be his?

BUY AT AMAZON here.

MY IMPRESSIONS OF THIS BOOK:

It's a brilliant intersection that brings together this series along with the Unrequited series of books, a beautiful melding of second chances and claiming exactly what you want, between a grumpy rockstar and a quiet, young woman whose actions speak louder than words.  From the first page to the last this book reels you in, makes you ache, before giving you the exact ending you've been hoping for through their sweet and sexy journey!

June Adler's the quiet yet caring younger sister of The Season's Change lead singer. She's been part of the rockstar world for quite awhile...and has had a crush on Diego for quite awhile too.  He unfortunately doesn't know she exists which changes irrevocably the moment she becomes nanny to his young son.  The moment he's back in front of her is the start of an erotically-charged connection, one that takes on a bdsm vibe as she proudly claims her submissive side.  There's a true connection between the two of them as he can easily read her desires and is happy to meet them in crackling and combustible scenes.  These scenes may appear merely physical early on, but their encounters show much deeper emotional depth, a joining of the hearts and souls of this captivating couple.

June's an amazing heroine, a young woman who's so much more than she appears. She's comfortable with who she is and what she wants, she goes after her desires, never settling for less and never giving in.  There's a maturity to her young age, a confidence behind her quietness that grows the more time she spends with Diego.  She has a painful past though, courtesy of a controlling father, and I cheered her on as she worked to overcome the negativity he pushed on her.  Diego Garza's an equally appealing hero with a past that broke my heart.  He's a gentle giant, a grumpy man, one who hides a big and caring heart.  He's a loving, sometimes overprotective dad to 4-year-old Milo, and I found him to be completely endearing.  He and June had a beautiful bond and were a strong support to each other in a journey that pulled at my heartstrings while making me blush and drop a tear or two along the way.

On a whole this book was pure perfection!  The romance between June and Diego crackled from the very start before catching on fire.  June's inner-strength grew through Diego's support and acceptance in a connection that ticked every box for me before putting their love to the test of time and their future.  Add in Milo and you have an even more delightful story!  A perfect end to one series and the reason to start reading the other if you haven't already!

My rating for this is an A.

MY IMPRESSIONS OF THIS BOOK:

As a fan of sports-fueled romances I found much to love about this book!  From the first page to the last I was captivated by these characters and their angsty journey to HEA that Ms. Dyer dealt with head-on.  My heart broke a time or two for all that the hero went through while my heart was rebuilt through Jesse and Jerrica's sweet and steamy encounters.

Jesse Sullivan’s the Team Captain for the Athletics and a man who likes to be in control...of both his professional and personal life.  His childhood was filled with pain and trauma and is something that he deals with still today through therapy.  He doesn't do relationships as he thinks himself incapable of intimacy which makes him fodder for gossip regarding his personal life.  He's a man who likes his privacy, but when he loses his driver's license he finds himself needing the help of, and growing closer to, the one person he's been trying to stay away from...his best friend/teammate's younger sister, Jerrica.  Jesse is a perfectly imperfect hero, one who's kind with a hidden heart of gold. He's sweet, sexy, with a naughty side that reeled me in completely.  He's a delicious hero who unexpectedly finds a healing balm in his burgeoning connection to Jerrica and I found their journey to HEA a heartwarming one teeming with sexual tension.

When readers first see Jerrica Morris she's at a turning point in her life, not quite sure where she's going next.  To give her time to think she moves in with her brother Nate which puts her directly in his teammate Jesse's path.  She's an utterly delightful heroine, a bright and cheery breath of fresh air to Jesse's dark moments.  She's kind, funny, and independent and I admired her being the one to first address her feelings for Jesse.  Though he gently pushed her away she never gave up on him.  For years she's felt an attraction to him, one he's denied them both as they undertook a sensual game of keep-away.  When he needs a driver after losing his license though, she's the one who comes to his rescue, which leads to a burgeoning romance where past hurts and current desires are revealed.  They grow closer throughout her six months of chauffeuring and while they seem like opposites at first they actually find commonalities and unwavering support in each other.  With Jerrica, Jesse found exactly what he needed in a connection that he wasn't even looking for.  She never pushed him for more than he could give, but was always there by his side in a crackling connection that held me captive.  Even when they weren't together he knew he could reach out and his little ray of sunshine would be there!

On a whole theirs is a romance that played with my emotions, left me a bit raw, and warmed my heart with joy while making me blush a time or two…or more…heh heh!  The heroine is strong and supportive, full of life and a positive outlook.  The hero is flawed, but that makes me like him all the more.  He knows he has demons from his childhood and isn't ashamed to deal with them through therapy.  The issues he's dealing with are realistically and respectfully depicted by Ms. Dyer, which I applaud her for.  The dichotomy of his kind and caring nature balanced with his naughty nature in the bedroom kept me glued to the pages and made for many erotically-charged scenes in the latter part of the book.  Not only did the connection between Jesse and Jerrica crackle, but so too did the banter between Jesse and his teammates…particularly Nate. Their scenes were witty with brotherly banter that made them feel like a family...the kind of family that Jesse longs for.  With each turn of the page I fell in love with Jesse more and more, my perfectly imperfect hero!  I fell in love with him and other readers will too in this immensely satisfying addition to the Manchester Athletic series!

My rating for this is an A.

But all I want is revenge.

EXCERPT:

Simone brushes her shoulder against mine as she walks by me, heading toward the living room. After closing the door to the closet, I walk behind her, a sinister grin on my face as I stare at her round globes. I lick my lips as I think about biting her apples. Simone stops in front of the glass window, staring out at the city as the sun sets.
My mind paints an image of her naked body plastered against the window, with me thrusting into her from behind. Simone breathlessly calling out my name, begging me to stop and continue at the same time. Her face reflecting a flicker of irritation, then delirious satisfaction.
Simone looks over her shoulder. Our eyes connect. Recognition dawns on her face. There is no confusion about what I’m thinking. Tonight will only end one way. I don’t know how we will get there, but by the end of the night, she’ll be on her back in my bed.
Simone walks over to me seductively, her hips swaying from side to side.
Keep playing.
“So...” She smiles up at me.
“So...” The sound of the bass in my voice is dark and rich like two fingers of scotch.
“What’s on the agenda for tonight?” “A movie. And if you’re good, dinner.”
She narrows her eyes, then places her index to her mouth.
I chuckle. Yep, she came to get fucked.
“I will only get dinner if I’m good? Lucky for me, I’m not that hungry.”
A dark, loud laugh leaves me. I trace my tongue across my mouth, then bite down on my bottom lip, wishing I was biting down on her peaks.
Simone’s eyes darken. “What are we watching?” She coughs, trying to clear the croaking sound she made.
“Are you okay?” I slant my head to the side with a smirk. “Would you like some water or...something else...?” I glance down at my tented crotch, then back to Simone’s widened eyes. She sees the effect she has on me.
I scrutinize her flushed face, the quiver of her lips, and the rapid rise and fall of her chest; just as affected by the sexual energy we’re encamped in. She swallows and shakes her head from side to side. Simone looks over into the kitchen as if she sees something intriguing.

I’m the monster in the dark. The Boogeyman. I shouldn’t touch her. Shouldn’t keep her. But I will.

Raina — A man took me from my home in Tahiti when I was only five. They called it an adoption, but I know the truth. My parents sold me, pure and simple. My life has been one nightmare after another, a living hell that I can’t escape. When my owner gives me as payment to Feliks Sobol, I think it’s just like any other time. But it’s not. He’s different. Under the darkness and danger, there’s a tenderness I’ve never experienced. I want him. I shouldn’t, but I do. He might be the one who ends up breaking me.
Feliks — I’m the monster in the shadows, the man everyone fears. I’ve done unspeakable things, and I will do them again without a hint of remorse. I’m Bratva, born and bred. Hard. Unyielding. Yet when I’m around Raina, there’s another side of me that emerges. One that’s weaker. Wanting her could get me killed. Yet I can’t let her go. Until my brigadier demands I choose. Raina, or the woman I wish to marry. I decide to hold on to the power I’ll gain by marrying Natalia Gorev. I didn’t realize it was too late. Raina is already under my skin, and when she’s taken, I know I’ve made the wrong choice. I’ll bathe the city in blood if that’s what it takes to get her back. I only hope she can forgive me.

EXCERPT:

My phone rang, and I answered, seeing Viktor’s name on the screen. “What do you need?” I asked, knowing he wouldn’t call without a reason.

“Why am I hearing from Leeds about his debt being reduced?”
I pinched the bridge of my nose, wishing the asshole had waited. This wasn’t a conversation I wished to have with Viktor just yet. I needed to figure things out. Mostly, I needed to know what I wanted to do with Raina.
“I’d planned to discuss it with you tomorrow. I lowered what he owes by one thousand dollars.” I paused. Leeds hadn’t demanded more when I’d left. I knew the man feared me. Now that I was gone, would he try to get Viktor to lower the debt more? If he did, I’d discuss it with Viktor. The asshole should be grateful I let him live.
Viktor growled, and I heard him slam his fist onto his desk. “And why would you do that?”
“He had a girl chained up. He’d stripped her, locked her to a table, and offered me the use of her to reduce what he owes.” I ran a hand through my hair. “Viktor, he’s had her since she was only a child. All she’s known is pain.”
“And where is she now?”
I glanced at the bed. “The apartment I keep for my mistresses. I didn’t find out until after I’d accepted his offer she wasn’t on birth control. It’s possible she’s pregnant.”

Enter Casey. He’s part vampire, part Fae, dangerous and only has eyes for Raine. He saw her at the BDSM club before she entered the vampire slave world and he swore he’d rescue her. He buys her the instant he sees her on the stage. The innocence in her eyes, combined with the sweetness in her soul calls to him. He wants her to serve him in the bedroom and be his partner everywhere.
She’s been hurt, and he’s a born protector. Can they make the attraction last and turn it into something eternal or will the fear win out?
Reader advisory: This book contains scenes of violence, fighting and death, as well as references to forced sex and feeding from humans.

EXCERPT:

“You’re an odd vampire. Most every other one I’ve known wants me for dinner. Either you don’t because you’re weird or you’re lulling me into liking you so I’ll give in. If you are, you don’t have to make me like you. I’ll give in. I know the rules because you bought me. Remember?”
“Why don’t you shower and maybe get some sleep? I won’t kill or drain you.” He wanted her to trust him, but he didn’t want compliancy. Not yet and not outside of the bedroom. He liked her fire and the spunk he’d seen at the club.
“I don’t have much of a choice,” she said. “May I have this?”

“The wine? Of course.” He poured himself a glass of merlot. “Let’s drink to your freedom and new home.”
She stared at him, and he couldn’t read her expression. Wary? Confused? He wasn’t sure.
Casey sipped his wine. “Feel free to use whatever’s in the bathroom. I have no secrets from you.” Not many.
Her eyes widened again, and her lips parted. “You scare me.” She drank the wine in one gulp, then coughed.
Good merlot should be sipped—not gulped. But he hadn’t gone two days without food. “Why do I scare you?”
She shrugged out of his coat. “Because I can’t tell what you’re thinking or what you want from me.”
“Oh?” His previous girl had said he’d telegraphed every move.
“I don’t know what you want and I can’t figure out if you’re telling me the truth.” She left the stool. “I’d like that shower, though, please?”
He kept getting her right to the edge of opening up when she shut down again. Soon, he’d know her secrets, and she’d know his. He led her to the set of rooms along the back of the house. “In here. I’ve got towels, soap and anything you need in the drawers.”
“Even a flat iron?”
She’d volleyed a challenge. Nice. He liked her spirit. “If you want.” He turned the water on in the open stall. “I’ll leave you to your shower.”
“You can watch. I haven’t showered in ages.” She removed her filthy dress. “I used to have guards so I wouldn’t run away. I don’t know what it’s like to have privacy.”
Lomax used guards? Interesting. Casey spied the lines on her back. Lashings? “Were you whipped?”
She shuddered and didn’t turn around “I was told I deserved it.”
He touched the silvery scars. He remembered when he’d seen her at the club, she’d gotten off on being flogged, but not to the point of bloodletting. What she’d been through was abuse. She flinched when he touched her again.
“I’m sorry.” He pressed a kiss to her shoulder. “I’ll never do anything like this to you ever.” She tensed, but didn’t pull away. “Uh-huh.”
Soon, she’d give him her trust, and he’d prove not all vampires were evil. He wasn’t a nice man—more a son of a bitch—but not with her. She could be his salvation, and he refused to screw that up.
