Tucker's Fall

Purgatory Masters # 1

by Eliza Gayle

 

Scandalized professor Maggie Cisco returns to her hometown to lick her wounds and reconsider her future. Her years of personal and professional research into the BDSM lifestyle has landed her in jail, in divorce court and now in the headlines of more newspapers than she cares to count. The worst of all? The entire debacle is being blamed on a bestselling book she hasn’t even read!

Just when she thinks her only solution is a tell all memoir, a snowstorm puts her in the path of stunningly handsome, insanely rich and equally intense, Tucker Lewis.

Tucker remembers Maggie well. They once shared a mind-numbing kiss at the annual St. Mary’s carnival when her boyfriend wasn’t looking. No stranger to scandal, he looks past public opinion to the submissive craving a master’s touch and decides then and there what he wants. He’s going after Maggie and her heart’s kinkiest desires.

Unfortunately, no amount of money can change the sins of the past and when they’re certain they know everything there is to know about each other, one discovers a secret they aren’t prepared for

Review: Roped by Eliza Gayle

Roped

by Eliza Gayle

(Purgatory # 1)

This is an extremely short but very hot story.  It's all about BDSM fantasies.  We find ourselves in a club (Purgatory) and Katie is observing one of her favorite things being performed by one of her favorite men.

There are ropes and two extremely hot men that know very well how to use them, on others and on her.  As teasers go I think this was great to whet your appetite for what I'm hoping will be a sexy series and another hot club to get lost in.

I won't get into the details of the story because I don't want to ruin it for anyone, especially being so short.  But I will mention that I DID NOT expect the ending.  Whaaattttt?!?!!? LOL

Definetely need to read more of this series!

ARC Review: Power Play by Eliza Gayle

3.5 Feathers
Power Play

by Eliza Gayle

(Pleasure Playground # 2)

This book had me from the blurb.  It sounded hot and wickedly erotic, and frankly, I just can't resist a BDSM story.  Being that this is part of a series, I was happy to find that there were only a few minor details of the story that I was left to try to piece together.  Like the concept of the business and our heroines job, which is how this story starts off.

Jennifer works as a bondage/fetish model, and to be quite honest, within the first two pages I was asking myself if I had made the right choice in picking this up because she was talking about one of her fetish pictures which involves a knife.  However, this is not the tone of the story, so I'm very happy I kept reading.

She is a tortured soul, coming from a very difficult childhood and lacking love her whole life.  She's never let go, she can't follow anyone's rules.  So when she finds herself agreeing to be Daegan's temporary submissive, you know there are bound to be control issues.

Daegan has a few skeletons in his closet as well.  A gorgeous Irishman, he now returns to the States to leave the past behind and even though he's not searching for another relationship, or another submissive to claim as his own, Jennifer captures his heart from the very beginning.

Ropes, cuffs, crops and floggers mixed in with a good dose of caring and wanting to heal the wounds of their past, these two give in to their feelings and desires.  Hot and seductive.  I will definitely keep an eye out for this authors next release!
