Title: Strapped
Author: Nina G. Jones
Series: Strapped #1
Publication: August 1st, 2013
Category: Adult
Genre: Adult Erotic Mystery/Suspense
Synopsis:
By all appearances, Shyla Ball has an enviable life: a loyal boyfriend, a great job, and family that loves her. She doesn't realize how deeply unsatisfied she is until she has an embarrassing encounter with a handsome stranger at a coffee shop. Taylor Holden, a successful businessman, takes a sudden special interest in her and offers her a job she cannot refuse. Soon after, she learns there is much more to this intensely private man than meets the eye. He is hiding many painful secrets, including why it is that he has seemingly plucked her out of obscurity for such a lucrative position. Her "perfect" world is turned upside down by her infatuation towards Taylor and in just a couple of months, her life looks nothing like it did before. While she is frightened by the changes she sees in herself, she cannot resist the lure of Taylor Holden. As Shyla slowly gains Taylor's trust, she learns of his complex history and how it has molded him into the person he has become. When elements of Taylor's secret past resurface and threaten to destroy them, Shyla finds out there may be more to Taylor's story than even he is aware of. Strapped is a story of passion, manipulation, obsession, and family secrets.

Strapped by Nina G. Jones
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

ARC kindly provided in exchange for a fair and honest review. Spoiler-free. Cliffhanger. 4 stars.

I am going to top line my review so I can remain spoiler free. Strapped was a fast read that was reminiscent of 50 Shades. Shyla Ball lands a dream job after spilling a hot cup of coffee on hot billionaire/ CEO Taylor Holden. She is instantly smitten with Taylor even though he seems to be harboring some dark secrets.  Shyla breaks up with her live in boyfriend after she cheats on him with Taylor.  She finds herself  falling hard and fast for a man that she is trying understand. Taylor is a complex man full of phobias, commitment issues and a personality disorder (or he’s just a moody freak). They embark on a dysfunctional relationship of sorts. As he starts to trust Shyla he slowly lets her in on his disturbing past. She also learns that he is into BDSM and decides to explore this side of him. Taylor finally lets her into his heart and his grey room of pain...but she might not make it out alive.

Strapped had a good amount of angst and some steam.  The character/background/plot development was amazing. Strapped ends in a cliffEFFINGhanger and I hope we don’t have to wait too long to read book two.

I love Michelle Valentine's Black Falcon rock band romance series and I have a feeling I am going to love Phenomenal X.  Xavier Cold looks like he's going to be a rock star in the wrestling ring.  Check out the Phenomenal X cover and synopsis.  I cant wait to read this one.


Title: Phenomenal X
Author: Michelle A. Valentine
Release Date: TBA
Reveal Organized by: I Love Indie Books

Synopsis: Phenomenal X
From the mean streets of Detroit rises the newest superstar of professional wrestling, Xavier Cold, better known as Phenomenal X. His muscular physique makes men cower before him and woman lose their minds with desire. 

Anna Cortez is fresh out of college and naive to the harsh realities of the real world. Tired of living under the thumb of her conservative family, she defies them when she accepts a job as the assistant to wrestling’s most notorious bad-boy. Phenomenal X has an animalistic nature that even good girl Anna finds hard to resist.

One night forced to share a bed in a sold-out hotel, lines blur between them and they quickly learn that one lustful night changes everything and neither one of them will ever be the same.

An Excerpt:
His lips pull into a tight line, and I fully expect him to release me, but he doesn’t. Xavier’s grip stays firmly in place. “It’s fine if you don’t want to say what’s on your mind. I get that, but no more frowning for the rest of this trip, or I might be forced to find other ways to make you smile just to piss your boyfriend the fuck off.”
My mouth drops open and I can’t stop myself from asking, “What kind of ways?”
Damn my stupid curious brain. That just set him up for all kinds of more dirty talk.
He tries to fight back a smile, but it doesn’t work. It comes at me in full, glorious force. “More ways than that sweet brain of yours could ever imagine.” He leans into me and I tense while he still holds me in place. He’s close enough that if I pushed forward a couple inches our lips will meet in what I imagine would be an earth altering kiss. “I could do things to your body that most women only dream about while reading their dirty, porn romance novels, and I promise you’d fucking enjoy it.”

And now over to Toni...

Opposites do more than just attract in Toni Aleo’s latest Nashville Assassins novel about a very bad boy and the good girl he can’t resist.

The instant Piper Allen sees Erik Titov, she wants him—wants his rock-hard body, sure, but the strength and mystery that lies behind that superstar hockey jock demeanor, too. So when he sidles up to her at a bar and slinks his arm around her waist, she’s lost. What follows is the wildest night of her life . . . followed by inevitable heartbreak the next morning. And then, a few weeks later, a very big surprise: two blue lines on a pregnancy test.

Only a check to the head could make Erik fall for a nice girl like Piper. But since their crazy-sexy night together, he’s been trying to forget about her alluring body by falling into bed with every woman in Nashville, and it’s not working. So when Piper shows up at his house with a baby-bomb to drop, it doesn’t take much for Erik to suggest the nuclear option: marriage. While it’s supposed to be all for show, the second they say “I do,” the ice between them starts to melt into sizzling steam.

Synopsis
Life can be a bitch but love can get you through any storm.

Madison Cole’s family is the Storm Motorcycle Club. Her father is the President and her brother is the VP. She grew up surrounded by bikers, crime and violence. Two years ago she walked away from her family and the world they live in. Her soul was shattered, her heart was broken and she had an addiction she couldn't shake. She picked up the pieces and put herself back together. Now her family wants her back. The club is being threatened and they send a club member to return her home to safety; the one person that could destroy everything she has worked so hard to build.

Jason Reilly has sacrificed a lot for the motorcycle club he calls family. Two years ago he made the biggest sacrifice of all; he gave up the woman he loved for them. Now he is being sent to bring her back and he is conflicted. He thought he was over her but discovers their connection is as strong as ever. Their love was all-consuming, passionate and fiery. It was also their undoing and he doesn't know if either of them is strong enough to battle the demons that ripped them apart, to find love again.

Madison and Jason are brought back together by a force out of their control; one that pushes them to a breaking point. Can they overcome their past and discover a love worth fighting for or will the harsh reality of their world finally and completely break them both?

Storm by Aussie writer Nina Levine was a great debut book.  If you want to “dip your toe in the water” and see if you like MC biker books...this is a great book to read.  While Storm contained many of my check list items…it wasn’t as hard core as other MC books I have read. I would consider it “biker lite” (since it wasn’t very raw, violent and intense).  I wished there was a little extra drama or explosive plot twist. Check it out…especially if you want to give this ever popular biker theme a whirl.

Excerpt
I grabbed my purse and headed outside to go and buy lunch.  J was on the phone, but saw me come outside and signalled for me to wait.
“I’m going to buy lunch, J.  And I only get an hour so I don’t have time to wait for you,” I said, tersely.  He kept talking and scowled at me.  I turned and started to walk away from him, towards the cafe where I always bought lunch.
I could hear him muttering something into the phone and then he must have ended his call because he went silent.  Then, he barked, “Madison!”
The last thing I wanted to do was stop for him, but

Synopsis
Underground fighter Remington Tate is a mystery, even to himself. His mind is dark and light, complex and enlightening. At times his actions and moods are carefully measured, and at others, they spin out of control.

Through it all, there's been one constant: wanting, needing, loving, and protecting Brooke Dumas. This is his story; from the first moment he laid eyes on her and knew, without a doubt, she would be the realest thing he's ever had to fight for.

Kindle Crack Book Review of Remy
Remy by Katy Evans
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

ARC kindly provided in exchange for a fair and honest review. Spoiler-free review. HEA/no cliffhanger. 5 Stars.

I was lucky to get an advanced review copy of Remy by Katy Evans.  Since I was able to read it early…so many people asked me the same few questions over and over again.  I am going to post them as my review them to clear the air about this brilliant, sexy as hell third installment in this series.

Q - Did I love reading Remy or was it a repeat of the first two books?
A- I loved reading Remy.  Albeit, Remy was a little repetitious since a good part of this book was the retelling of the original story.  What made it different was the way Katy Evans took us on a journey from past to present. Remy’s point of view packed a REAL punch.  This is his story retold through his black and blue eyes. He is one hell of a character…Remy is part wild man, part lion and walking sex on a stick. He is a super-sized sexed up caveman on speed. What is there not to love?

Q- Why was it so cool being in Remy's head/pov?  Anything new in the third book?
A – Did you read Real and Mine?  Enough said.  I effing loved it. There is some new material since Remy’s journey goes from past to present day. I do wish there was a little more of the present day story line included…but I was really happy the way this book played out. What a great HEA. You might be coming off an existing Remy high from reading Mine (Book #2). Lucky you… there is more lion licking love to be savored in book three.

Seven Sons by Lili St. Germain looks pretty freakin hot.  Holy hell I love smutastic biker books. Check out the synopsis and author giveaway.  Release date: Feb 2014.

Cover Reveal - Seven Sons by Lili St. Germain

Title: Seven Sons
Author: Lili St. Germain
Genre: MC Romance/Erotica
Release Date: February 2014
Hosted by: Love Between the Sheets Promotions
Goodreads: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/18751827-seven-sons

Synopsis
My father was most certainly NOT an innocent man. As the President of the Gypsy Brothers MC, he was guilty of many things. But he died for a crime that he didn’t commit, framed by an enemy within who then stole his club and everything he had ever worked to protect.
Including my innocence.
When Dornan Ross framed my father, he set into motion a series of events that could never be undone. My father was murdered by Dornan Ross and his sons when I was fifteen years old.
Before my father died, Dornan and his sons stole my innocence and branded my skin, and in doing so, ensured that their lives would be prematurely cut short. That they would suffer.
I’ve just turned twenty-one, and I’m out for blood. I'm out for revenge.
But I didn't expect to fall for Jase, the youngest brother in the club.
I didn't expect that he would turn my world upside down, yank my heart out of my chest and ride away into the sunset with it.
Now, I'm faced with an impossible choice - Jase, or avenging my fathers death?

Excerpt
Tears form at the corner of my eyes as the full brunt of Dornan’s obsession with me becomes apparent. He left me here for this. He asked me who my ex-boyfriend was, and then proceeded to travel across the country to kidnap an innocent boy from his house. A boy who has never laid eyes on me, a boy who I found online and added to Sammi’s backstory for credibility.

A boy who kneels in front of me with a gun pointed at his head.

“Please,” I cried, quickening my pace.

He worked me faster, and I froze and shook like I had a fever, letting the waves of rapture take me. I felt him jerking inside of me as I cam back down from the addictive high, his face arrested in his own gratifying release. I love to watch him come, and I held as I could, impaled on him, until his eyes opened, and he blinked up at me.

Cover of Better by S. Walden

Synopsis
Their relationship has been exposed, and now their lives are changed forever.

For Cadence Miller, the fast track to adulthood proves intimidating and frustrating. She’s a little girl lost—abandoned by her parents and uncertain of her future. She doesn’t think she “fits” anywhere. She’s eighteen. She wants to be older. And the result is both comical and heartbreaking.

Mark Connelly will do anything to provide Cadence a stable, loving home—to be her protector. But he’s just as broken and lost, and his heart won’t let go of his past so easily. He knows he must share his secret with Cadence. And he hopes his revelation won't tear them apart. He hopes it will draw them closer, and make their love better.

Review
Better by S. Walden
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
ARC kindly provided in exchange for a fair and honest review. Spoiler-free review. HEA/no cliffhanger. I highly recommend reading book one first.  4.00 - 4.50 stars.

S. Walden did a fantastic job wrapping up this emotional teacher/student sequel (Too Good #2). Book two picks up right where book one left off without skipping a beat. Mark and Cadence are thrust into a “grown up” relationship.  Mark is no longer Cadence’s math teacher and they are living together.  In Better, the unlikely pair has to deal with the harsh realities of life (bills, employment, trust etc...).  Aside from the large list of responsibilities starting to pile up…Cadence’s list of emotional baggage is growing as well. She questions her relationship with God, family, friends and Mark.  Mark’s secret was accidentally revealed and nasty words were exchanged. As Better unravels, Cadence painfully morphs into a bitter drunk and lost little girl. She tries to numb her anger with alcohol-- in order to forget what Mark said to her during the secret/fight drama. Mark vows to make things work between them as their life turns into one hell of an emotional obstacle course. That’s all I’m going to say since I don’t want to spoil this story.
I really enjoyed this book.  I will say I felt it dragged a little from time to time. I think I loved the taboo teacher/student dynamic in book one and I was a little bummed that this element was absent in book two.  Then again…I believe that the characters relationship had to evolve from teacher/student for this story to move forward. S. Walden’s Good series is not to be missed. I would highly recommend reading Better if you read Good (how could you not?!?!).  What an epilogue!!!!!

S. Walden used to teach English before making the best decision of her life by becoming a full-time writer. She lives in Georgia with her very supportive husband who prefers physics textbooks over fiction and has a difficult time understanding why her characters must have personality flaws. She is wary of small children, so she has a Westie instead. Her dreams include raising chickens and owning and operating a beachside inn on the Gulf Coast (chickens included). When she's not writing, she's thinking about it.
