SYNOPSIS
A hit gone wrong, an impossible contract, revenge and the ultimate kicker… falling in love.

Mercy Reid is a runner.

She found the perfect place to hide, until it wasn't.

Xavier "X" Blood always gets what he wants.

He had the perfect arrangement, until it wasn't.

X is the mysterious tough guy from Royal Blood MC who gets shit done. Cross the Club and you get a visit from X. Only one person walks away at the end of it...and it isn't you.

Mercy is hiding something. Something big. Looking to get lost, she runs from one hopeless situation right into the clutches of a monster.

When X and Mercy meet, something more electrifying than sparks fly. Something dangerous, passionate and forbidden.

When you deal in death, there's only one way things can end...

Or is there?

If you like sparkly unicorns and hearts, Royal Blood IS NOT for you.
If you like dark twisty anti-heroes and heart stopping roller coasters, Royal Blood IS for you.
If you like teddy bears and kittens with whiskers, Royal Blood IS NOT for you.
If you like unapologetic alpha males that drip sex and talk dirty, Royal Blood IS for you.
You have been warned.

EXCERPT
X

Sliding out of the booth, I sauntered across the pub and ducked behind the counter. Nobody gave me a second glance. They didn’t know who I was, nobody did, but they knew I wasn’t anybody good. Peering through the window on the door, Mercy had her back turned, wiping at her damp T-shirt. I could step into her from behind and show her how hard I was…but that wasn’t the way this game was going to be played.
Pressing the door open with the flat of my palm, she looked up at me with blue eyes that gave away two things. Her hair wasn’t naturally black and by the way her pupils dilated, she was amped up. I was interested in only one of these observations and by the way my cock began to stir, there was no guessing which one was the money shot.
Mercy glared up at me, trying to cover her surprise at my appearance.
“What the fuck do you want?” she spat, dabbing at her tiny T-shirt with a rag. “You’re not allowed back here. Employees only."
I stepped closer, not put off by her tone at all. I’d had worse.
“I don’t give a shit,” I said.
She eyed me, her gaze raking from head to cock and back up again.
I quirked an eyebrow, my lip curling in amusement.
“If you want something, just fucking say it,” she said with an exasperated sigh. “I don’t even know who the fuck you are."
“X.”
“X, what?” she said, putting her hands on her hips. Bitch didn’t miss a trick.
“It’s my name."
"X as in the letter x?" She rolled her eyes.
"Got a problem?" I asked, inching closer.
“Yeah.” She nodded at me. “You’re in a staff only area. You might be all buddy buddy with Weiss, but I don’t know you from shit."
“The mouth on you,” I breathed, totally turned on. I knew she had bite in her, but fucking Jesus H Christ. The more she bit, the harder I got. My gaze rested on her tits. Yeah, I was a tits man through and through and hers...
“You think I’m going to let you fuck me?” she scoffed, her bluntness doing nothing but turning me on even more.
My gaze snapped back to hers. “Who said I was going to fuck you?"
She pressed her hips forward, her groin rubbing into mine. “Your cock."
My hand shot up and grasped the hair at the nape of her neck. With a sharp tug, her head fell to the side, leaving her neck exposed. If I was an asshole, I’d just take her now, but I wasn’t…fuck that. I was an asshole. Asshole was too safe a word to describe the kind of man I was.
“No,” I said, running my gaze down her pale neck and over her tits. “No, I’m not going to fuck you, Mercy.” She gave me a look that screamed ‘offended' and it only made me grin wider. “Not here. When I fuck you, I’m not going to share your screams with anyone."
Her entire body shivered and I knew I had her. Next time, she would come to me.
Letting her go, I let her hair run between my fingers and it took her a beat too long to step back and separate our bodies.
Giving her one last appreciative look, I turned on my heel and exited the ‘employee only’ room. I could wait. My cock strained against my jeans in protest, but this was one desire I was playing out and savoring.
I strode across the bar and pushed out the door, rearranging myself.
I could wait.

BLURB:

Bleu MacAllister is consumed. A horrific childhood incident has caused every decision in her life to revolve around bringing a monster to justice. With years spent studying The Fellowship, an organized crime brotherhood of liars, thieves, and killers, Bleu will rely on her skills as a special agent to cut Thane Breckenridge off at the knees. But walking hand in hand with retribution means risking collateral damage, in the form of Breckenridge’s son Sinclair—until Sin becomes so much more than Bleu bargained for. She’s always known this undertaking would place her life in danger—she never imagined her heart would be as well.

I haven’t read/recommend a tremendous amount of paranormal books….but this series is exceptional. Dark Light (Book #1) is on sale for 99 cents. I am in the middle of reading Light Shadows (Book #3) that came out early last night.  All I have to say is #oneclick this one NOW. This series is supernatural nuclear HOT (fanning self).

Blurb
Twenty-one years ago, Gabriella's life was stolen from her before it even began.
Orphaned at birth and encompassed in a fortress of lies to protect her identity, she never truly understood her purpose on this earth. But now that she has ascended, embracing her destiny, the ghosts of her past have come back to haunt her.
Even with insurmountable power running through her veins, part of Gabriella is irreparably broken. And with old enemies working to destroy the tiny shred of normalcy she has left, she'll be forced to face the ugly truth about Dorian, the man she chose to love despite his darkness.
Everything she loved is a lie, and everyone she thought she knew is a stranger. And now that Gabriella is about to be thrust into the battle of her life, she discovers that she may be fighting for the wrong side.
*This is book 3 of The Dark Light Series, the highly anticipated conclusion to Gabriella and Dorian's beautifully tragic love story.

Review of Light Shadows
Light Shadows by S.L. Jennings
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Title:  Light Shadows (Dark Light #3)
Series: Yes/final book in this series.
Author: S.L. Jennings
Release Date: November 20, 2014
Rating: 5 stars
Cliffhanger: No

I had reread the first two books and the novella before I started Light Shadows (Book #3). I usually skim through earlier books in the series before the latest book releases. Once I picked up book one...there was no turning back. There was not a chance in hell I could skim through this nuclear hot paranormal series. I reread this series again and then devoured the last book!  Light Shadows (Book #3) was just epic. This series needs to turned into a cable series…it’s just that HOT and the characters are incredible.   All I have to say is one click this one NOW (fanning self...).

Excerpt
Without warning, we’re on the bed, wisps of charcoal vapors swirling around our bodies. I’m flat on my back with Dorian hovering over me, watching, waiting for his influence to overtake my consciousness. While his body doesn’t touch mine, his mind—his beautiful-fucking-mind—begins to infiltrate every part of me. Sliding over the surface of my skin, so soft and light, like the silkiest feather. Pinching my sensitive nipples and raking down my belly. Igniting heat between my thighs until my panties are damp with desire.
I feel him all over me—teasing my pleasure points with his phantom touches. He moves in closer, so close that our lips nearly meet, yet he still won’t kiss me. He still won’t let me taste the sweet longing that is undoubtedly tempting his tongue. I lift my head to take it from him only to find that I am bound to the bed, completely under his control.
I’ve been here before. I’ve been under Dorian’s spell enough times to know how this will play out. He’s a man of dominating control, and today has been nothing short of chaos. He’s taking it back. He’s taking me back.
“Touch me,” I beg, my voice breathless with agony.
“No.” His eyes spark with white fire on that single word, showing the torment of his restraint.
“Please,” I whimper. “I need you to touch me. I need to feel you.”
“You feel me now,” he rasps.
“No. That’s not enough.”
“Oh? Not enough?” Pressure spikes in my core and I cry out as sensation snakes through my swollen sex. He doesn’t move, but I feel him there—touching, licking, even biting. Soft and hard, hot and wet, all at the same time.
 “I can feel you throbbing, Gabriella. It hurts, doesn’t it?”
“Yes.” My voice is an intelligible squeak. It does hurt, yet it feels oh-so-incredibly good. Dorian’s pain is the most potent form of pleasure.
“I feel the hardness of your nipples—how they ache to be licked and sucked. You want me to do that, Gabriella? You want me cover your nipples with my mouth and run my tongue over them? You want me to squeeze them between my teeth right before I suck them, baby?”
“Yes, Dorian,” I manage through a sob.
“And when I’m done teasing your nipples, you want me to run my tongue down…” Another jolt of electricity stings my sensitive flesh. “…down…down…until it meets that soft, sweet place that hurts you so bad? You want me to kiss it and make it better?”
I try to nod through the haze of lust and agony, but I can’t move. I can only feel him owning my body in the most delicious way.

Author bio 
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author, Pam Godwin, lives in the Midwest with her husband, their two children, and a foulmouthed parrot. When she ran away, she traveled fourteen countries across five continents, attended three universities, and married the vocalist of her favorite rock band.

Java, tobacco, and dark romance novels are her favorite indulgences, and might be considered more unhealthy than her aversion to sleeping, eating meat, and dolls with blinking eyes.

A SPECIAL EDITION brought to you by New York Times, USA Today, & Bestselling Authors

INFERNO: Ten full-length smoldering and fiery romances. Passion so intense they're almost too hot to handle.

Synopsis:
Devour Me - Kailin Gow
The Master Chefs dominated in the kitchen as well as the bedroom... Taryn Cummings could not believe she will be studying at the prestigious International Institute of Culinary Arts in beautiful Paris - a far cry from her unglamorous life in New York running her mother's restaurant. A chance meeting brings her face-to-face with devilishly charming Errol King, the notorious celebrity bad boy chef who can have anyone, except Taryn, the woman he wants most.

Belong to You - Vi Keeland
My honeymoon was almost everything I dreamed it would be, a tropical paradise, turquoise water, romantic walks on the beach, and loads and loads of mind shattering sex. The only thing missing was the groom.

After seven years of coasting through a relationship with Michael, my senses were numb. A week of passion with a stranger was just what I needed to clear my head and take back control of my life. But how do you move on when the man that was only supposed to be a fling somehow seeps into your soul and steals your heart?

Tattooed Dots - Kimberly Knight
Brooke Bradley and Easton Crawford meet on a singles cruise and learn that people are brought into their lives for many reasons. Over time, they find out what those reasons are. Some are to be a temporary acquaintance while others are there for life.

Chase - Cassia Leo
A struggling actress finds herself in over her head when she takes a job as an escort and finds her first client is a sexy, dominating presidential candidate.

3:AM Kisses - Addison Moore
Baya Brighton is looking forward to her first year at Whitney Briggs University, new friends, dorm life, and finally being close to her brother again. Love is the last thing on the list, but when Baya meets her brother's roommate she begins to have thoughts and feelings that make even her blush.

Adam's Apple - Liv Morris
Adam Kingsley reigns as the prince of Manhattan. His looks & money let him get away with all types of sins. It's been an intoxicating ride until he meets Kathryn Delcour, an alluring socialite with unique erotic tastes.

Adam finds this complex woman too tempting to resist & will stop at nothing to have her, yet she is warned to stay away from him and his player ways.

The passionate lure of ancient sexual practices and a former business partner wanting to inflict a deadly revenge set the scene for an erotic love story.

Fixed on You - Laurelin Paige
A bartender with obsessive tendencies and a billionaire built on dominance come together in a steamy story that explores the line between head games and love-cures-all.

Consequences - Aleatha Romig
Every action has consequences:

Claire doesn't understand how she ended up in the cruel hands of her abductor, Anthony Rawlings, but it's been made abundantly clear--she is now his acquisition and every action has consequences.

Captivate the captor:

Will Claire follow his rules, or will Anthony become enthralled by Claire? If that happens, will either of them survive the consequences?

Seduction & Temptation - Jessica Sorensen
Daughter of a very powerful drug lord, Lola Anders life has always been dangerous and full of dark secrets. Before Lola can uncover them, she's kidnapped and forced to go through with a murder, by none other than her childhood friend, Layton Everett.

Allure - Lacey Weatherford
Tattoo artist by day, exotic dancer by night, 22 year old Six has been fighting his attraction for the girl of his dreams. Why? She's the high society daughter of the Mayor. Oh, & she's only 17. But what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas...right?

Review of Bend Don't Break
Bend, Don't Break by Skye Callahan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Title: Bend Don’t Break (Irrevocable #2)
Author: Skye Callahan
Series: Yes.
Release Date: November 18, 2014
Rating: 4.50 – 5.00 stars!
Cliffhanger: No
Spoiler-free review

Bend Don’t Break (Irrevocable #2) picks up after “The Retreat” was raided, and James/Rose was rescued.   This second installment is told via James’ POV and deals with the emotional aftermath of being undercover.  James and Rose’s story continues and book #2 isn’t a regurgitated version of the first book.  Rose and James are physically and emotionally scarred from their time at The Retreat.  James is forced into therapy in order to start working again.  He is belligerent and distant while having to recall his actions while recuperating.  James is a bit freaked out about having enjoyed some of the dark sexual aspects of the force and control he had over Rose.  Can they move forward and make things work?  Will they ever be the same…or did their time at The Retreat bend them so far that they break?

Bend Don’t Break wasn’t as dark as Irrevocable and ended up being a perfect mix of drama and suspense. This sequel is heavily focused on the emotional aftermath and criminal investigation.  BDB is a must read for Irrevocable fans!  I hope we get to see another book in this series about Trent!

Excerpt
“She’s fine,” Dr. Combs assured me. “But I don’t think it would be in the best interest for either of you to see each other. You put yourself in a dangerous situation with her.”
Put myself? Last I checked I wasn’t the one to drag her into the Retreat. “I kept her alive and slightly less broken than she would have otherwise been.”
“The two of you adapted to a horrible situation, found comfort in each other—”
I didn’t want to hear it.
Stockholm Syndrome.
I wondered if the captor could get it, too. Was I even the captor? It seemed like I’d lost control of the situation long ago.
But I’d still been the one to beat her, rape her, bend her will.
Just like she’d bent mine.
I wanted her back so bad I couldn’t breathe. The more we talked about it, the worse it got. The harsh reality of it all forced me to face the possibility that I had to walk away if I wanted to do what was in her best interest.
“How long until I can talk to Trent?” I tried again, drawing back a modicum of control by changing the course of the conversation.
Dr. Combs sighed and snapped her portfolio closed. “If it’ll get you to talk, I’ll make the arrangements on one condition.”
I’d already sold my soul, there weren’t many more concessions I had left to give.
“I need to know you’re not going to try to reach out to Rose—or anyone else.”

Ten Fun Facts
1. I love cars, and I write most of my books while watching Top Gear. I’d prefer the sound of an Aston Martin over any music sound track.
2. I once based a character in a story on my husband, and the character died. He never lets me live it down, but don’t bother trying to figure it out, I never released that book.
3. I’m not terribly good at being girly–I don’t wear makeup, only own 4 pairs of shoes, and I’ve never had a manicure.
4. I learned to handle a gun before I learned long division.
5. While most of the people in my graduate research classes were buried in books, I was glued to the TV researching the evolving portrayal of “Indianness”.
6. I have a phobia of crickets.
7. Yuengling is my weakness.
8. I have penguin stuff everywhere--even a penguin snuggie because I couldn’t resist.
9. I enjoy long walks in the cemetery.
10. Nearly everyone in my family has seen a ghost in the hallway in the house I grew up in, and I was told by a Bigfoot expert that the sounds I used to hear outside my bedroom at night were likely the cries of Bigfoot.


Reviews
"Not only did Irrevocable gut me, it took me on a roller coaster ride full of emotions that I usually don't experience while reading romances.... You start to hate, you start to sympathize, and you begin to fall in love in every way. Ms. Callahan has turned my world upside down with her writing. Dark, sensual, and at times overwhelming, Irrevocable will bring you on a dark journey that you will never forget." Shayna Renee's Spicy Reads TOP PICK of 2014!

"You HAVE to read this book. It really is one of the best that I have read in a while, and definitely one of the best of 2014. It has everything I look for in a dark read. The twist that the author throws in is, just wow. I just cannot emphasis just how much I love this book!" Alicia, Mean Girls Luv Books

"Finally a good DARK read, that has it ALL...!! Overall - the characters drew me in, the situation jangled my nerves, the sexy scenes were HOT, and the story just blew me away." Shelby,  Wicked Reads

"Beautifully written! Great characters and story line. Skye made me a fan of dark reads. A must read for all who dare to step out of the light and into the darkness!" Summer's Book Blog

Spoiler-free review

What a hella of a novella! Once again, CJ Roberts knocked it out of the park with the latest installment in the Dark Duet series. Determined To Obey is an ABSOLUTE must read. I highly suggest reading the first three books in this series to comprehend various relationships and critical background information. I don’t say this often enough...Thank you for writing this book. This series is some of the finest dark, twisted and erotic Kindle Crack.

So boys….the first time you saw your girl what went through your head?

Marcus: Well considering I first met Tessa when I was a thirteen year old little shit, the head on my shoulders wasn’t really an issue. It was the one in my pants that was suddenly all alive and tingly. And guess what, when I ran into her all those years later in Starbucks…it was kind of the same reaction. Tessa’s always been the type to turn heads without even having to try.

Peyton: She would be mine. One way or another I was not letting Braelynn.

Chase: The first time? All that long black hair piled up in a mess on the top of her head . . . she was gorgeous. But I think the best part about that first image was the pink cooler she was trying to lug across the pasture toward the canoes. She gets this glint of determination in her eyes, and it’s adorable and frightening at the same time. The second time I saw her? I was equal parts thrilled and terrified. The last time I saw her she was a walking disaster, and I had the bruises to prove it. *rubs forehead*

Tell us 3 adjectives that best describe you.

Marcus: Faith loves her hashtags so, here’s three I think she’d use to describe me:  #ReformedManWhore #TessaSavedMe #BadBoywithaHeart

Peyton: Controlling, passionate, demanding.

Chase: Easy-going—I love a good laugh. Patient—I really have to be in my line of work. Family-oriented—my family and I are real close. I’d do anything for them.

Last but not least….we’ve gotta know….tell us one of your biggest secrets.

Marcus: Oy! Secrets. They’re secrets for a reason, no? But if you MUST know (and I’ll have to kill you if you tell her this) my sister Riley is the person I look up to the most. Since my mother died, she’s been the closest thing to one for me and her opinion, whether I listen to it or not, really means the world to me. She’s a nagging pain in the ass, and a hypocrite in many ways if I do say so myself, but I’d walk burning coals for my big sis and I love her more than she probably knows.

 Peyton: I like a woman on top and in charge.

Chase: My biggest secret? I’m an open book. There was that one time back in high school when my buddies and I got caught sneaking beer out of the back of a bar. We outran a cop in my buddy’s pick up—lost the cop on a gravel road. We never told anyone—some of us might have lost our scholarships over that one.


Faith Andrews

Faith Andrews lives in New York where she is happily married to her high school sweetheart. They have two beautiful daughters and a furry Yorkie son, Rocco. If she isn't listening to Mumford & Sons or busy being a Dance Mom, her nose is in a book or her laptop. She's a sucker for a happily ever after and believes her characters are out there living one somewhere . . .

Livia Jamerlan

Livia Jamerlan is the author of Divided. She is also a hopeless romantic who is always looking for her next love story to pop in her head. Though Livia kept a journal throughout her early life, she never thought about pursuing a career in writing. She always used it as form of therapy, pouring her heart out into words. It wasn’t until a story developed in her head that she decided maybe she could write a book. At first it was just an escape from reality, but now she uses it as a power to put all her feelings, hopes, and fears on paper. Deciding it was time to tell her story, she began to write. With each passing day the story grew, characters were formed, and what seemed like a hobby at first has now become a passion for Livia.

She is a New Jersey Native who loves spending time with her husband and two dogs Buddy and Daisy. When she is not writing or hiding behind her Kindle, you can find her with outside, gardening, at a local shopping center enjoying some retail therapy, or enjoy a pepperoni pizza.

Niecey Roy

Niecey Roy knew she wanted to be a writer from a very young age, but her moment of enlightenment came after watching the movie You’ve Got Mail. It was then she realized her place in life and happily parked her butt on writing romance. Her dream was to create sexy vixens, hunky, half naked heroes, and above all, romance; lots and lots of butterflies in the belly, breathless first kisses and happily-ever-afters.

When she’s not at her day job where she works as a legal assistant, she can be found at home at a cluttered desk, pounding her tired little fingers away on a keyboard with nothing but black pepper flavored sunflower seeds and Visine as her weapons for mass-romance-novel-creation. When her fingers need a break, you’ll find her at a table with friends, drinking a few martinis and showing off a new pair of (sometimes ridiculous) high heels. She’s usually the loudest at the table and most often the one snorting with laughter.

I seriously LOVE this m/m romance series.  Rock stars and boys who love boys...what more could you ask for?   Each book in this series can be read as a standalone... but I would suggest reading the first three books so you know a little bit about the bands background etc. You wont feel lost if you didn't read them...but they are so good and you don't want to miss out on these hot rockers!

Synopsis:
Mick Wheland, Ivory Tower's bad-boy guitarist, has recently realized two important things about himself. He prefers sex with men over women, and the idea of a committed relationship doesn't scare him as much as it once did. He's seen the positive effects of love from watching his band-mates find life partners, and now he's thinking he might be ready for the same himself. The problem is knowing where to look for Mr. Right, and living out of a suitcase while touring with a band is not exactly conducive to finding real love. 

Sonny (Rooster) Roostarelli leaves the seclusion of his Vancouver cabin, where he went to lick his wounds after a contentious divorce, and moves back to Los Angeles. He claims relocating to L.A. is for business purposes, but now that the dust has settled on his failed marriage, Rooster feels he might finally be ready to settle down – with a man.

A chance encounter for Wheland and Rooster on a busy L.A. street rekindles an old friendship between the two professional musicians. Rooster needs a short-term place to stay and Wheland has plenty of extra space at his hillside estate and that lands Rooster in Wheland's guest room. What starts out as a music collaboration opportunity quickly turns personal when the chemistry they have becomes too strong to ignore and soon the music they're making spills from the studio and into the bedroom.

The road is a grueling bitch musicians love to hate. Being on stage under the hot lights can sometimes be the only place they feel comfortable and alive. Can two high-profile rock stars make a life together in such an artificial world – on and off the stage... or will past mistakes and family secrets keep them from finding their forever?

Reader Reviews of the First Three Books:
“Edwards has a way of conveying her character’s personality more through their actions or anecdotes then a drawn out description, following that old saying, actions speak louder than words.”
“I loved this story, the writing was clean, it flowed naturally between the changes in time, and you can tell every word held purpose. I CAN’T wait to read the next volume and see where this story will go!”
“Very fast and intriguing read.”
“Uniquely written, suspenseful and intriguing are but a few words to describe this serial story from Scarlet Edwards.”
