Review ~  by Dawn

Whats in a name? That which we call A Rogue by any other name would taste as sweet.

Rogue by Eden Bradley is a deliciously erotic tale of a rogue vampire defying the rules of the Vampire Council only for the elation of it. But there are consequences when you defy those who are stronger, older, more wickedly devious than one's self.

Caught with no where to go, Rogue plies those around him with his wit, snark, and sexual prowess. He is beautiful, daring, and alluring. But that is not all, he is a mystery as well.

While there are those on the council who would love to see him eradicated, Ramsey (head of the Vampire Council) would like to see him bound - at his mercy - submitting to him.

This is a sensually arousing tale of two broken men brought together by passion, sex, and blood. There is mystery to be solved, passion to be had, and things get even curiouser and curiouser as the story builds.

Great introduction to the Vampire Council and this new spin off series, Midnight Playground: International. I have already fallen for several of the council and can't wait to see where Eden Bradley takes us next.

Quote:

His entire being itched to feel their innocent struggle beneath his hands.


He whispered against his ear, “I’m going to hurt you rather badly.”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Ask for it, Amon. Let me know your desires.”
“I want it, Sir. I want you to beat me. Until I beg. Until I bleed for you. This is something I need. Need. Please.”

(I love that Eden can make me crave more from a secondary character! I want Amon!)


Review~ by LolaLovesBooks

Prepare yourself for an exquisitely written tale of two vampiric men brought to their knees by one another—Join them as smoldering seduction ignites into a fiery passion that bursts into a controlled, steady blaze.

How true to his name would he be had he simply walked through the front doors of Palacio de Crista–the Crystal Palace? How lonely in life would he remain had he not? Regardless of his very nature granting access to any of Europe’s Midnight Playground clubs, Rogue remains true to his name and chooses to gain entry by jumping the wall instead. To him it is a game… Tempting, forbidden, thrilling.

He is impossibly beautiful, young and cocksure—all of which catches the eye of Ramsey, not only the head of Palacio de Crista, but member of the Council as well.  What are they to do about this rogue vampire with no regard to following rules? After many suggestions, including death, his punishment is decided. He must participate in a game of the Council’s choosing this time. A game of humiliation, powerlessness, and finally submission to Ramsey for all to witness.

Both Rogue and Ramsey are blasted by instant emotions thrust upon them at first sight, struggle with emotions that intensify with each encounter, and all while what was once only a rumor is a now verifiable threat to their race.  The account of their pasts, deep-seated promises and ensuing inner battles to let it all go are each masterfully spun into this tale, one which I thoroughly enjoyed and can’t wait to read more about.

I’m definitely ready for Chiara’s story.  She’s so wicked I just have to know more about her… Maybe in another Midnight Playground Series: International installment?  I will bow at your stilettos, waiting patiently, Miss Eden.

Blurb:

Tatum O’Connell:

Some call me a party girl. People see me as happy, full of life, with absolutely no cares in the world. They see what I want them to see. But no one knows me - really knows me. Not even Noah Reese.  Mr. Perfect is always watching me, most likely judging every single imperfect thing I do. But, if Noah wants to keep an eye on me, that’s just fine. I definitely don’t mind. I just hope he doesn’t have any plans to save me from my new-found life of self-destruction because in order to save me, he will have to see me…

And I’m never going to let that happen.

Noah Reese:

Perfect. That’s me. That’s the only acceptable way to be, according to my father. Perfect grades. Perfect manners. Perfect athlete. Perfect SAT scores. Perfect college. And recently, I was accepted into the perfect med school. My future has already been mapped out for me and there’s nothing that can change that. Not even Tatum O’Connell. That girl is out of control, yet for some reason, I can’t seem to keep my distance from her. I watch her closely, hoping that one day she’ll let me in, but watching her lead her life down the dangerous path she’s on right now isn’t easy…

I have a feeling I’m about to find myself swept away by the hurricane that is Tatum O’Connell.

“Two fleeting souls, 

Unknowingly tethered.

Too slowly drawn,

Impatient fate calls. 

The jolting collide intertwines their lives

And splinters their walls.”

“Catalyst” – Noah Reese

Teaser Excerpt:

Still laughing and not paying attention, I round the corner, only to run straight into a completely different kind of trouble.  A brown-headed, blue-eyed, whirlwind kind of trouble.  A trouble that looks unbelievably hot in a tight-ass, short black dress.  A trouble wearing the highest black heels I’ve ever seen, heels that make her legs look unbelievable and should be outlawed judging by the bulge forming inside my dark Diesels. Damn. She’s also a trouble that I’ve formed a decent friendship with over the last few weeks, so any mental images I have of her doing certain things to me wearing those heels have got to go.  

“Hey!” she says laughing as she flips her hair off her shoulders.  My eyes immediately land on her pouty lips, the clear shine reflecting off of them as she smiles. “What are you doing here?”

I clear my throat and tear my gaze from her mouth.  “Getting my check, you?”

She looks me up and down as she nods her head. “Me too,” she says clearing her own throat.  “Where are you going, looking all spiffy?”

I chuckle because only she would say spiffy.  “I’m taking Piper to that new club, Parallel. Where are you going looking all spiffy?”

She claps her hands together excitedly before taking my hand.  “We’re going there too!  Yay!”

I’m still surprised every time she touches me.  It’s such a drastic change from the first day at the duplexes.  As I think about the last month or so - all the times that we laughed together at something ridiculous that she said, or the fact that she insists on bumping hips with me every single time a song comes on the radio that she likes while singing at the top of her lungs, even the times she lightly brushes her hand across my arm while she’s speaking – there’s a level of comfort and ease about our friendship. Reason five hundred why I need to curb my inappropriate thoughts about this one. 

I smile to myself as she tugs me harder.  “Where are you taking me?”

“To the employee bathroom!” 

Well, that did absolutely nothing to fend off dirty thoughts.

“Why?”

She giggles. Obviously, she’s already started drinking.  Great.  Well, at least we’ll be at the same place so I can make sure Dickhead the Douchebag takes care of her. 

“Because, I’m gonna fix your hair.  It looks too…perfect.  It needs to be messy – sexy, like you.” She stops dead in her tracks. “Um…I mean, as sexy as you look now.” She exhales, frustrated. “Sexily dressed, that’s what I mean.” She bites her bottom lip nervously as she mentally tries to hook her words and reel them back in.  I just laugh because she looks so damn cute.

“So, you think I’m sexy?” 

Saying nothing else, she rolls her eyes and pulls me in the direction of the bathroom.  Once we arrive, she flips on the light and points at the toilet for me to take a seat. Turning on the faucet, she sets her purse on the counter and pulls out a travel size hairspray.  After digging around for a little while longer, she turns towards me.

“Well, I guess this will have to do.” She tilts her head to the left and then scrunches her mouth to the same side, deep in thought. Nodding to herself, she leans over and wets her fingers in the sink before stepping in between my legs.  

She breathes in deeply before placing her fingers in my hair.  Slowly, she distributes the water throughout, often leaning back to the faucet to get more.  Her cool hands work from the sides of my head toward the top, where her fingers interlace to form a spiky section down the center. Then she bends at the waist, placing her face so close to mine, her breaths hit my mouth.  I know I can’t have her, but damn if I don’t want to take some piece of her with me. So greedily, I take in her air with every breath she releases. Her eyes still focused on my hair, I watch her mouth. Still breathing with her, I lick my lips, the movement distracting her so that she brings her blue eyes to mine. In silence, we stare, only the shared breaths between us are heard. 

Taking her hand out of my hair, she places it on the side of my face and gently strokes my cheek with her thumb as we hold each other’s eyes.  Before long, I watch a soft saddened half-smile appear on her lips.  “Much better,” she says with one last soothing run of her thumb before she backs away.  Reaching for the hair spray, she tweaks the top of my hair, pulling random pieces in different directions before spraying them.  I fight the urge to put my hands around her waist and pull her into me.  To hold her. To have her.

Instead, I sit with my hands on my knees, wanting what I can’t have.

After a couple of more sprays, she steps back.  “All done. You’re good to go. To the bar. With Piper,” she says, the pitch of her voice getting higher with each incomplete sentence spoken.  There’s no mistaking the heartache radiating between the both of us.  It’s so thick I could slice it with a knife.

REVIEW~

Picking Up the Pieces is the debut novel by Jessica Prince, and I have to say she knocked it out the park with her first time.  This book is an emotionally charged bit of greatness. The great secondary characters show promise of a great series to come.

The last eight years haven’t been too easy on Emmy. Since the day Luke left her life and crushed her heart into millions of pieces it has been a rocky climb to put her life back together. Now he is back in town, and she wants nothing to do with him. But someone needs to tell that to her traitor of a body and heart!!

Luke knows he made the biggest mistake of his life when he left. He thought it would be easier on Emmy if she hated him, but he didn’t have any idea of the consequences that his selfish acts caused. He now has his work cut out for him if he has any hope of convincing her to give him a second chance. He doesn’t just have to make up the past to Emmy. He cut off contact with all of the people in his life, and his former best friends will make him work for a chance to be in their lives and Emmy’s. Can he make up for being a dumb 18 year old??

I can’t wait to see what else Jessica comes up with. If this book is any idea of her potential, then she will be an auto buy for me. This book made me laugh, cry, and my heart stop at moments. I love being so involved with the characters that you feel everything they are. The dialogs are written in a way that I felt these characters could have been peeps in my life. I love that she didn’t feel the need to add hundred dollar words when a five dollar word works just as great. I really hope y’all love this one as much as I did!!! :)

~ Excerpt ~ 

Ryan could hardly believe his luck. After a sex-packed day and a bit in London, he was now being propositioned by a sexy older woman on the Eurostar. The Paris-bound train had just started moving and it seemed the woman wanted to spend at least some of the two-and-a quarter-hour journey to the French capital fucking him in the toilet.

He shook his head disbelievingly. Then, after making sure no one had witnessed their exchange—when she’d given him the come-on—he slipped from his seat and made his way as nonchalantly as possible in the direction the woman had gone. He quickly found her, standing in the area between carriages that also housed the public conveniences.

She looked around, ensuring no one could see through the glass doors at the ends of the carriages to either side of them, pulled open the toilet door and dragged him inside.

Ryan barely had time to catch a breath before she’d locked the door, slammed him against it and molded her lips to his. She tasted of expensive champagne—she’d probably been indulging in St. Pancras station’s champagne bar—and it suddenly made him very aware that, although she’d started their sexy rendezvous, he was most likely taking advantage of an inebriated woman. He twisted his head away.

“Hey,” he said, grasping her arms and pushing her gently away from him. “Don’t get me wrong, you’re gorgeous and very, very sexy, but you’ve been drinking. I don’t want you to do something you might regret later.”

The woman laughed, long and loud, and Ryan worried that someone might have heard her and wonder why on earth there was a woman laughing to herself in the train toilets. The last thing he wanted was to open the door and find a pissed-off member of staff waiting there. There was no excuse for two adults being in a locked cubicle together that anyone would believe.

Clapping her hand over her mouth, the woman suppressed her mirth, then finally spoke. “Yes, gorgeous blond one.” Her French accent surprised him—he’d thought she was a tourist heading to Paris. “I have been drinking champagne. But only a glass. I’m certainly not drunk.”

With that, she pounced on him once more, and Ryan decided not to resist any longer. They were both consenting adults and he had protection in his pocket—so where was the harm in indulging their baser instincts? His cock definitely didn’t see any further reason for delay as it filled with blood and pressed against the crotch of his jeans.

He pushed his fingers into her thick black hair and pulled her more tightly to him, deepening their kiss. She was eager and, judging by the way she was rocking her hips against him, incredibly horny. He held out for as long as he could, exploring her mouth with his tongue, nibbling at her plump lower lip and pulling her hair to expose her white throat. Before long, though, the pants and tiny mewls coming from the woman’s mouth pushed him to the point of no return. His cock was all but bursting from his jeans and he really needed to be inside this woman’s pussy.

ARC Review of the Burn With Me

 book one, Fireborne series 

by RG Alexander

Aziza Jane Stewart is living on borrowed time, and making a few mistakes in London seems like a good way to go out with a bang. But when two compelling strangers draw her into an ancient conflict, she realizes her curse isn’t about death at all…it’s about the power within her.

The sexy giant following her says he can smell trouble on her skin, the smokeless fire and magic of the demons he was born and bred to hunt. Brandon may be an enforcer, but his reaction to her is anything but adversarial. Ram, her new Jinn shadow, will do whatever it takes to come between them, and he’s just as hard for Aziza to resist.

When her dark family legacy burns to the surface, whom can Aziza trust? The alpha male who pushes all her hot buttons, the Jinn who seduces her in dreams, or the emerging Fireborne within? As danger circles closer, she must learn to embrace her newfound powers—and trust someone with her heart—before she becomes the final casualty.

Warning: Explicit content, magic, danger, voyeurism, chains, a secret ménage and carnal deeds of devilish debauchery at every other turn. Basically…fasten your seatbelts and get ready to burn.

How do I feel about the new Fireborne  series by RG Alexander?

Need I say more? No! But I think I will :) 

To say that I devoured Burn With Me would be an understatement. Once I started, I was enthralled.

Sexy, witty, and full of dark surprises. Each page turn revealed the multitude of layers to this mystical world—A world that Aziza Jane Stewart had no idea existed until she stumbled into it. Aziza is a full of life adventurer, filling everyday with as much pleasure, excitement, and thrills as she can because she believes she is cursed to not live much longer.

Aziza has traveled to London with her friend Greg and once they get there, things—odd things—begin to happen. Coincidences, seeing things, hearing and feelings things that just can't be. Small pieces of her life being to unravel and make sense, but how could it be? Mystical worlds and beings don't exist … or do they?

Now that Aziza has glimpsed the world of Jinn, Enforcers, and unimaginable creatures she must make choices that will impact everyone she cares for and those she does not even know.

Death, chaos, magic, and sex drives this arousing magnetic new series by this powerful author, RG Alexander. The label of "Urban Fantasy" does not say enough about the Burn With Me series ... While you get the paranormal/otherworldly side, you also get the treat of sensual characters, deep ancient secrets, and a mystery so profound one book is not enough to tell the whole story. So get ready to be enchanted by this captivating new series.

Cowgirl up with Emma Lang

Interview with Elizabeth Graham from Vaughn, book four in The Circle Eight series by Emma Lang.

Circle Eight: Vaughn

Series: Circle Eight , Book 4

By: Emma Lang
Published By: Beth Williamson
Published: Aug 13, 2013 

A con man. A rancher’s daughter. A wildfire out of control.

Elizabeth Graham spends her days running the business side of the Circle Eight ranch. Her knack for numbers and organization lent themselves to her position in the family. She has just turned twenty-one and doubts she will find a man to spend her life with. Elizabeth doesn’t believe in love, after all, and when she meets a charlatan named Vaughn Montgomery, her opinion doesn’t waver. At first.

Vaughn Montgomery is down to the lint in his pocket and the handsome smile he uses as a weapon. His last con went wrong and he fled west. Now he finds himself trapped in the middle of nowhere Texas. And at the mercy of a hard-nosed woman who wears shapeless dresses and whose tongue can cut blocks of wood.

Unwilling to bend and unable to forgive, Elizabeth and Vaughn get caught up in a web of lies that stretches from Houston to the heart of Texas. She finds herself falling for the man who can’t seem to tell the truth and he can’t get enough of a woman who can only speak truths. Surrounded by danger, they embark on the ultimate con to save the Circle Eight and their lives.

Now let's talk about to Elizabeth about Vaughn:

1. What was the first thing you thought when you laid eyes on Vaughn?

He was the first naked man I'd seen. I saw all of him, from stem to stern. And he was, um, big, if you know what I mean. Honestly, he was also an inconvenience. There was no on there to help me move his large body - he caused me endless amounts of trouble. Little did I know how much more was coming.

2. What is the most annoying thing that Vaughn does to irritate you?

His inability to be truthful. I realize the man is a swindler by nature but I cannot abide a man who couldn't be honest. At the same time, I fell in love with him, not his honesty or dishonesty. I was torn between loving him and not liking who he was. A conundrum of the heart.

3. When was the biggest turning point in your relationship?

When I decided to be intimate with him. You see, it was my choice to do so - not that my brothers would agree. As a spinster, without marriage prospects, the future looked rather lonely. Vaughn was charming and handsome - everything I wasn't. He stirred me, deep inside, awoke a part of me I never knew existed. The first time I touched his skin, I knew things had changed forever.

4. Do you feel Vaughn's "bad boy" vibe is what you were originally attracted to? If not what was it?

Probably because he needed to be fixed - and I like to fix things. Numbers are my passion - they make sense. He was nothing but chaos. He needed to be fixed. There was also the element of danger in being with him, the unknown dangers that lurked in the shadows of his past.

5. If you had to describe your relationship in five words what would it be?

Explosive. Tumultuous. Intense. Passionate. Eternal.
