Just Reviewed- Review of Raising Ryann by Alyssa Rae Taylor

Raising Ryann (Bad Boy Reformed, #1)Raising Ryann by Alyssa Rae Taylor

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


4 stars!!! Arc provided by the author in exchange for a fair and honest review.
Review to follow:)

ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. This review is spoiler free. Four stars.

First time author Alyssa Rae Taylor did a great job building up the steam, suspense…and a following for her book Raising Ryann. She has been writing and releasing this sexy story on WattPad in bits and pieces.

Reese Johnson’s childhood memories are anything but special. Her drunken father beats on her and her mom. After her parents separate Reese faces more drama when one of her mom’s sleazy boyfriends attempts to rape her. She is saved by a neighbor who hears her screams for help. Fast forward years later… Reese is a hardworking, strong woman determined to make it on her own. She is enrolled in college and working two jobs to support herself. One day this hot as hell tattooed muscle head shows up to work alongside her at her job at the gym. Reese is attracted to him…but can’t stand his cocky demeanor. She realizes her hot new coworker is the boy her saved her years ago. Luke Ryann left his sky rocketing career as an MMA fighter. He is burnt out of the whole lifestyle – travel, sluts and partying. He decided to take a job teaching self-defense in his foster parents gym back at home in Arizona. He knows he will be working alongside of the little girl he saved from being attacked long ago. Luke wonders if she will remember him since he looks so different. She’s still a little girl….right? Reese slowly learns that Luke has his own emotional baggage he is dealing with. Sparks fly and he fights his growing attraction and his growing hard on for Reese. Will his past get in the way of any chance at a future? Is Luke Ryann who he says he really is?

If you are looking for a solid YA/Coming of Age book (with a “NC-17” movie rating) this is it. There is steam factor thing going on….but it doesn’t progress into your typical MMA-fighter style alpha male “get a room/cage/mat” wild sex. Alyssa Rae Taylor does a fantastic job with the chemistry build up between the young couple. I have to say….the first 50% of the book moved a little bit slow for me….but the last 50% made up for it with character development, plot and relationship drama all coming together at a rapid pace. Then BANG… it all comes to a screeching halt with the mother of all cliff hangers and I felt like I took one of Luke’s MMA punches to my heart. I need book 2 – Bad Boy Reformed. This is some amazing YA Kindle Crack. Existing Wattpad readers/fans of Raising Ryann are also going to LOVE the way this story is crafted.

Smuttastic Reviews Review of Escaping Reality (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen) by Lisa Renee Jones

Escaping Reality (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen, #1)Escaping Reality by Lisa Renee Jones

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


ARC provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

Everything about Amy is a lie. She is hiding in plain site from someone dangerous from her past. Amy is on the run... and literally has to hop a flight with the clothes on her back and nothing else. She has "handler" that provides her with real time escape plans and credentials that she must follow.

Amy ends up sitting next to Liam en route to her next destination. Sparks fly and they have insta-chemistry. Liam is a well-known architect and wealthy as can be. Liam is the quintessential “Mr. Tall, Dark and Potentially Dangerous” billionaire. He steam rolls his way into her life and ends up pretty obsessed with everything about her. Amy meets Jared, her new neighbor. He is also smitten with Amy. Amy has a lot of questions about the two new men in her life…not to mention her new boss. Why is Amy running? What happened in her past? Who is this handler? Is Liam or Jared the real bad guy? Ok…so you have questions…so do I…so does Amy.

Lisa Renee Jones latest book Escaping Reality (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen, #1) is such a puzzle…that I can’t wait to solve. This fast paced book is loaded with steam and suspense. I absolutely loved the way book one played out. Yes, there is a hardcore cliffhanger…which is a little painful. I can’t wait to get my hands on book two (please be soon). Four smutastic mystery filled stars!

Cover Reveal & Promo Giveaway - Hell's Knights by Bella Jewel

I cant wait to read this. Hell's Knights looks like one hell of a smutastic biker book!


Title: Hell’s Knights
Author: Bella Jewel
Expected Release Date: August 2013
Genre: Biker Erotica
Hosted by: Love Between the Sheets

Goodreads - http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18211118-hell-s-knights

Synopsis:
Sex. Who really knows sex? I mean, we've all had sex, great sex even but when you get down to the details, how many of us actually see sex for the raw, primal act that it is?

I thought I knew sex. I've had sex. Heck, I've felt lust. Once, I've even felt love. I thought I knew exactly what sex was.

Until I met Cade.

He's the meaning of sex.

He's a biker.

He's dangerous.

He's powerful.

He's dominant.

He wants me.

My world is about to change, for the better? I don't know. But here's my story, I hope you're ready for it because it's not the beautiful, heart wrenching story most people have to tell. It's passionate, forbidden, morally incorrect and downright, fucking beautiful.

Just Reviewed: Let Love Stay by Melissa Collins & Promo Giveaway Four and a 1/2 stars

Talk about emotional read..... LOVED this book. Make sure you read book one first - Let Love In by Melissa Collins. Such amazing Kindle Crack!

Let Love Stay (The Love Series, #2)Let Love Stay by Melissa Collins

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Wow….. That about sums it up. I loved book one-- Let Love In and then there was book two - Let Love Stay.
Melissa Collins picked up right where she left off in book one without skipping a beat. I want to remain spoiler free here. Maddy and Reid have a lot issues to work out with each other as well as with family. Maddy is pregnant and needs to deal with losing the love of her life. Reid needs to face the demons of his past if he is going to move forward and be able to have Maddy in his future. Will Reid forgive Maddy? Oy….this book pulls on your heart strings in so many ways. I have to say I felt like I needed to read this page turner in a caffeinated pace (I had to bust out my super-fast reading skills ;)…or I might have skipped to the ending. I’m glad I didn’t or I wouldn’t have been able to really take in this amazing story. Let Love Stay will keep you captivated from page one to the end. Melissa Collins is a writer to watch! There is a HEA and a book three! 4.5 amazing stars. Enjoy.

Beneath the BurnBeneath the Burn by Pam Godwin


My rating: 5 of 5 stars


ARC provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. Expected publication: August 1, 2013

Charlee and Jay are two lost souls burned by life. Their worlds collide and life as they know it will never be the same ever again.
Charlee’s father is a huge loser on so many levels. He used his daughter as collateral to cover his gambling bets. He lost his daughter and his own life to Roy. At sixteen, Charlee is held hostage by a sadistic fuck named Roy…who happens to be an international business owner with a bank account to rival that of Bill Gates. She is forced to live her days chained up and sexually assaulted by Roy in his demented prison penthouse of horrors. Charlee does whatever she has to do to survive. She creates her own invisible armor to block out her life with Roy. Charlee gets a bitter sweet taste of freedom but is enslaved by her own demons and never free from him.

Jay is the tormented lead singer of the rock band – The Burn. Everyday life is a struggle for the beautiful rock god. He is mentally held hostage by horrific childhood memories. Jay’s demons cause him to be repulsed by a strangers touch and ignite deep seeded panic and depression. His horrific flashbacks antagonize his mind, body and soul. He numbs his pain through playing his music, drug abuse and mindless sex with groupie sluts. Jay is damaged to the core - never allowing anyone or anything to touch him…to see the real him. One night after a show he walks into a tattoo parlor and allows a beautiful tattoo artist (who happens to be Charlee) to create a veil to cover up his physical scars. Charlee’s art and her words pierce his heart and he longs to be freed as an emotional hostage to his twisted past.

“How had Jay survived his pain? If he were hanging in the irons, what would he have done to guard his mind from splintering apart? How resilient he must’ve been to carry the weight of so many wounds. She wanted to borrow his strength, imagined it plated over her skin.”

A chance meeting in another time and place once again causes their paths collide.

“She has a memory of a man with a back full of scars. Beneath the superficial damage was a devotion to survival, as instinct to dominate his future. Most probably didn’t see that when they looked at him, but she hadn’t just recognized it, she’d felt it and wanted it.”
I don’t want to give away anything about this story. I hate the word “epic”…but it’s the only way to describe this story….it’s fucking epic. BtB is the ultimate emotional roller coaster ride of survival and second chances. I recommend checking out the author’s content warning. This gut wrenching story is not for everyone and not easily digestible. It took me to this uncomfortable place and dangled me there to take it in. This story is so emotional and so well written that it will leave you captivated from the first page to the last. This isn’t a pretty hearts and flowers erotic tale of love…this ain’t your mamas 50 Shades of Grey kind of book ;) – so I wouldn’t loop in the same genre because of BDSM factor.

I don’t know where Pam Godwin came from…but I’m sure glad I found her and this book. Her character development is off the charts. The way she crafted this dark and twisted story to unravel is breath taking and will make you cringe. BtB is so incredibility raw… fucked up and is one hell of a hard core page turner. FIVE++ BURNING STARS.

New Release & Giveway Promo - Ending a Broken Journey by Melissa L. Delgado

Title: Ending a Broken Journey
Author: Melissa L. Delgado
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: August 3, 2013

BLURB
A childhood crush who moved away. An adult love that shattered her world. Twenty-seven year old Mackenzie Tillson hasn't been living for quite some time, rather, just existing. Life is passing her by and even with the love of her friends and family she can’t quite seem to snap out of the disconnected bubble she has created around her. Moving day by day as a shell of a person who once knew what it meant to live.

Until one day, the boy who first had her heart comes back. With a vengeance...Drew Dean has been apart from the girl he loved all of those years ago for far too long and now that fate has provided them with a second chance, he will make it clear to her that she is, and always has been the one for him. But what Drew discovers in the process, is Mackenzie may just end up being completely unreachable.

Is it possible to get through to someone who has no intentions of ever letting anyone in again? Can a person find their way through the darkness and emptiness they've created? For Mackenzie, trudging along in life alone is where she feels she deserves to be. But will she find it in her to fight and break the barrier of the internal distorted view she has of herself? Or will she let everyone and everything slip away?
As Mackenzie tries to piece together the remnants of her shattered existence, she inadvertently discovers life, love and loss are one in the same. A hopeful journey to be taken with an ending to fill the emptiness she's carried for too long.
