Bless the Beauty (Special Agent Fang # 1)

Erotica Romance

by Stacey Kennedy

 

Murder, abduction, sparring men, love and heartbreak―welcome to life of Special Agent, Hadley Sloan.

Hadley Sloan and Chase Finley might be Special Agents within the Criminal Investigations Department, but what their comrades don’t know is, they’re in love…or that Hadley is a vampire.

Soon, Hadley’s personal life is uprooted and she is left with even more of a mess on her hands when Kellen Boyd, her vampire husband returns to sink his fangs back into her life…

From Goodreads

This is my first Stacey Kennedy book! I have read reviews from friends and so was expecting a hot book, and I wasn't disappointed. This definitely isn't a book you can read on the bus with out squirming! Right from the very first page, this had me drooling and it just got better when Kellen was thrown in to the mix! Ms. Kennedy certainly knows how to keep things sexy!

The plot line involving them trying to find the missing girl wasn't as strong as I hoped it would be. I think part of this had to do with the length of the book. With a short novella, it did not get the chance to really develop the missing girl storyline and I was a little sad about this.  The urgency of the rescue wasn't there as they kept stopping for sex breaks (and let's face it who could blame her!?) but it was still an enjoyable read that got me all worked up!

Overall I did enjoy this book, it got my pulse racing and I will definitely be reading more Stacey Kennedy!

Date with Death

by Eve Langlais

Paranormal Romance

Find it on GoodReads!

 3.5 Feathers

This was the story of Marigold and Mictain.  This was a pretty entertaining but short story. Definetely good to lighten up your mood and as a quick pick me up. ;) Mictain is an Aztec God who is now serving Lucifer as a collector of souls and he's been assigned to get Marigold as she will die by drinking a potion she makes from an internet recipe.

Some thing had me laughing out loud, for example: the Death Order file with the name of soon-to-be-deceased, and signed by Satan, the Lord of High Sin! Then the hellphone, powered by the souls of CEO's of phone companies.

But when he shows to up wait for her to die, she can actually SEE him. That shouldn't be possible, how can a mortal see him? She must be more than human. So Lucifer assigns him to get close to her to find out what she is.

Of course it helps that she was attracted to him the first time she saw him and had asked him to come back to have dinner with him. But he blows the first date!

He soon realizes that he cares for her more than he has for anyone else in a very long time, and just wants her by his side. He just has to get daddy dearest's approval. But he doesn't know how her father is, and Lucifer won't tell him.

Marigold's personality got a bit on my nerves, but in general this was a fun read.

 

Last Minion Standing

by Eve Langlais

Paranormal Romance

Find it on GoodReads!

I have to say that I love the way Eve Langlais thinks, she is quickly becoming a go to author for me when I'm in need of a quick improvement in my mood.  She manages to write stories that will make you laugh and squirm at the same time!  The snarky comments and humor she puts in her stories is so entertaining!

Last Minion Standing is, as you can probably imagine by the title, a play on a reality TV show!  Sally is a bounty hunter for the Hellacious Office of Escapees (HOE). She has decided that as all famous people she should have a minion, wait wasn't that supposed to be a sidekick?, yeah, minion works better for her. Her BFF Jezzie convinces her the best way to find one, and a good super heroine name for herself, is to setup a Hellbook Fan Page and accept applications for a contest. Which they promptly set up.

Her Hellbook page becomes so popular and with so many minion applications that Jezzie gets her a contract with HBC (Hell's Broadcasting Corporation) to make the search for her perfect minion into a reality show!

While all this is happening she meets a guy off the screen.  Drake is actually a shifter (I didn't guess what kind so I was pleasantly surprised!)  As soon as he meets Sally for the first time he recognizes her as his mate. And when he finds out that her minion search has now turned into a TV show, he can't stand having other males drooling over her, so he makes the decision to compete, and of course WIN.

This book has some hot phone sex,up against the wall in an alley sex, going through portals and tumbling down on the bed sex, and much more!  It is extremely funny and to date my favorite Eve Langlais read!

 

Eve Langlais will be giving away "The Greek Job" and "Hybrid Misfit" and "Delicate Freakn' Flower"! Three winners!  Giveaways open only July 5 and July 6!

Review + Giveaway: Complete Out of the Box series by Kallysten

 

Out of the Box complete series

by Kallysten

Erotica Romance

Scroll down to WIN THIS ENTIRE SERIES!

 

(more like 3.5 flaming feathers!)

Kallysten has made a name for herself. As a writer of some hot erotica books, I knew that I would be missing out if I didn’t read any of her work. The Out of the Box series is nothing like what I’ve read before. Each chapter features a different kink that is both intensely hot and alluring. Kallysten gets points for such a creative idea! In the beginning of the book, the chapters are outlined with a chapter title and I had to stop myself from reading down the list because I didn’t want to spoil anything! I wanted to be surprised as I started a new chapter, wondering what Kallysten was going to come up with next!

Out of the Box starts off with Virginia entering, On The Edge, a nightclub and she finds herself in the arms of a sexy vampire named Anando. The books follow Virginia and Anando home where Anando proposes a game. Virginia has to pick something out of a box and that is what they use for the night. The toys in the box vary in intensity and I think Kallysten does a great job of increasing the intensity at a gradual pace.

What I loved about Virginia is that she embraces her sexuality and isn’t afraid to take Anando’s words and make them reality. Anando may be the guy, but I think Virginia has the upper hand in this relationship. I loved her strength and adored the fact that she was pretty fearless throughout this entire thing.

Anando, on the other hand....I’m not sure what to say about him. Sexy doesn’t cover it. There’s this darkly seductive thing he has going on that vampires are known for. But with his minimal words and Virginia’s descriptions of him, there’s no wonder why Virginia felt so strangely attracted to him.

To say the least, Out of the Box is a unique, hot read and fans of vampire erotica need to read about Anando! I’ve already got Will and Aria by Kallysten, so that’s my next erotica read!

 

 

Kallysten will be giving away the complete OUT OF THE BOX series to one lucky winner!
