Seduce Me (Ravage MC #2) by Ryan Michele

I didn’t read the first book in this series yet…but book #2 looks and sounds smoking hot.  I love biker books!


Title: Seduce Me (Ravage MC #2) 
Author: Ryan Michele
Genre: MC Romance
Release Date: June 9, 2014
Synopsis
Casey Alexander grew up part of the Ravage Motorcycle family since the day she was abandoned by her mother and thrown into her father’s lap. Always seeing herself as an outsider, she spent her whole life trying to fit in, but never really succeeding. When she loses her beloved father, the utter aloneness engulfs her, leaving her searching for solace in the one man she’s always craved. Confessing her love for him only results in devastation when he pushes her away. Convinced she needs a fresh start, she leaves everything behind in order to mend her broken heart and begin building a future without him.

Gage Thomas (G.T.) Gavelson fell in love with his Angel when he was just a pint sized kid. Both beautiful and smart, he always felt she deserved so much better than him. Growing up beside her in the club only continued to test his will power, until one night, he gave into temptation. Realizing he couldn’t allow himself to hold her back from the life she deserved, he pushed her away, allowing her to believe she would never be enough for him. Letting her go had been the hardest thing he’d ever done. Even though he’d thought it’d been the right thing to do, not a day goes by that misery doesn’t consume him for it.

When a tragic shootout occurs, everything changes as once again their lives are intermingled. When you find your way back to the one person you are meant to be with, forgiveness should be easy. But sometimes, we hurt each other too much to ever be able to forgive.

Is their love strong enough to heal their pain? 
Ravage Me (Ravage MC #1)






About the Author

I'm a mom and a wife who works full time. I have a huge obsession with collecting paperbacks and reading. Becoming an author, wasn't exactly what I set out to do, it just happened. I needed something to help me get rid of the feeling of being 'just a mom' or 'just a wife' that was consuming me and writing became that outlet. My book(s) cover some tough issues which are hard for some readers to digest. I am grateful for every single one of you who read my books.

First Look: Review of Bang by E.k. Blair - 5+ Stars

Read my spoiler-free review of Bang. It's set to release on May 19th. I was so lucky to receive an advance review copy of this book...and I have to say that I'm a little bit obsessed with it. This book will end up on my top ten book favorite books of 2014!

Title: Bang
Author: E.k. Blair
Release Date: May 19, 2014

Synopsis:
They say when you take revenge against another you lose a part of your innocence. 
But I’m not innocent. 
I haven’t been for a very long time. 
My innocence was stolen from me. Taken was the life I was supposed to have. The soul I was born with. The ruby heart embedded in a life full of hopes and dreams.

Gone.
Vanished.

I never even had a choice. 
I mourn that life. Mourn the what-ifs. 
Until now. 
I’m ready to take back what was always meant to be mine.

But every plan has a fatal flaw. Sometimes it’s the heart.

**Due to the dark and explicit nature of this book, it is recommended for mature audiences only as some scenes may be particularly disturbing.**



Bang (Black Lotus, #1)Bang by E.K. Blair
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Definition of BANG
transitive verb
1 to strike sharply :  BUMP
2 to knock, hit, or thrust vigorously often with a sharp noise
3 often vulgar :  to have sexual intercourse with

intransitive verb
1 to strike with a sharp noise or thump
2 to produce a sharp often metallic explosive or percussive noise or series of such noises
3 to play a sport (as basketball) in a very aggressive and forceful manner

Bang is one of the most unforgettably dark suspense thrillers to land on my Kindle.  This “unputabledownable” book is absolute Kindle Crack.  I was completely captivated from the first to the last page.  I’m still thinking about the characters, the plot, everything….and I read it a few weeks ago.  E.k. Blair asked early reviewers to refrain from posting spoilers about Bang,  so you’ll need to read this book to experience this great story.  I’m glad I was kept “in the dark” and refuse to spoil your reading experience.  Bang is equally raw and intense.  It’s a story about love, lies, deception and revenge.    Bang deals with some pretty intense subject matter.  This is as real as it gets.  E.k Blair does not sugarcoat her characters’ actions in any way. Bang is one hell of an emotional rollercoaster ride with a nuclear meltdown of an ending. This story was painful to read at times and had me saying ONWTH (Oh No What The Hell) about 100 times.  E.k Blair’s writing is brilliant to say the very least.   I highly recommend this book. 5+ BANGed up stars!

Title: Dirty Deeds (Dirty Angels #2)
Author: Karina Halle
add-to-goodreads-button31


Synopsis
“He’s fearless and ruthless. Soulless.”

As a flight attendant, Alana Bernal has had her share of suitors. She's also had more than her fair share of tragedy within her messed-up family. But what she hasn't had is love. Real, rip-your-heart-out, tear-your-clothes-off, all-consuming love.

At least that was the case until she met an American tourist, Derek Conway, a ripped ex-soldier with steely eyes and a commanding presence. 

What started as a chance encounter between the two in Puerto Vallarta, a weekend full of hot sex and mindless passion, has led to something more.
Something deadly.
Because Derek isn't the type of man to fall in love. He's not a man who sticks around.
And he's definitely not in Mexico on vacation.
Derek is a mercenary, a killer-for-hire, a man who does the ugly jobs for the highest bidder.
Unfortunately for Alana and Derek, the highest bidder has the power to destroy whatever worlds they have created for themselves.
The highest bidder can destroy everything.

*This is a romantic suspense book, #2 in the Dirty Angels trilogy but can be read as a standalone novel*
