HOT TICKET
by Olivia Cunning
Sinners on Tour # 3
February 13, 2013

There are things in bassist Jace Seymour’s past that he is unwilling to share with anyone. To cover his guilt and anguish, he seeks dominatrix Mistress V (Aggie) to temporarily placate his inner turmoil. Aggie doesn’t have much use for men–besides the power rush she gets when they’re begging for mercy at her feet–but Jace isn’t like her usual clients. His cool defiance and unexpected dominance in the bedroom drives her to distraction and quickly steals her heart. When circumstances threaten Jace’s position in Sinners, Aggie must help him regain his rightful place in the band while showing him that time and love can heal all wounds.

For all of you who just want a spicy holiday anthology then you will have to check out this one for sure!

December 3, 2012

 I NEED YOU FOR CHRISTMAS

by Leah Braemel

Ryan Porter is a sculptor, and beneath his callused hands, even the most rigid metals bend to his will. So, too, does his girlfriend Megan—a confident, strong woman who delights in submitting to Ryan’s dominance in the bedroom.

Megan is a Mountie, and she’s spent the past few years in the arctic following her career dreams. Family obligations kept Ryan at home, but their love survived the distance thanks to several hot visits. A Mountie always gets her man, and Megan is bound and determined to keep Ryan.

Now Megan’s with Ryan for the holidays…but how long will this visit last? She’s always been willing to do anything Ryan desires, but will he finally tell her that all he needs for Christmas is her?

BREATH ON EMBERS

by Anne Calhoun 

Christmas is the perfect time for Firefighter Ronan O’Rourke to take things to the next level with his sexually adventurous girlfriend. He knows she has feelings for him—and he’s sure of his feelings for her—but when Thea refuses his invitation to sample Christmas in New York City because what they share is nothing more than sheet-burning sex, Ronan sets out to change her mind.

Deep down Thea Moretti knows she cares for Ronan, but she can’t move past her grief over her late husband. Loud music and sex with Ronan are the only things she’s got that her feel alive, so she takes as much of both as she can get. She knows Ronan wants more, but during the darkest time of the year finding her way won’t be easy.

Ronan gambles everything and challenges Thea: one night of passion with him and another man. Can he prove to her that what they share isn’t just great sex but an emotional connection strong enough to last forever?

Review: If I Were You by Lisa Renee Jones

If I Were You

(Inside Out Trilogy #1) 

by Lisa Renee Jones

Noooo!!! *screaming in my head in the middle of the night* was my reaction to the cliffhanger ending of this book. It's not bad but after reading page after page of this addicting story and wanting to find out what is next to come…I get this ending?! *fist in the air* I want more!!!

I am at her mercy; Ms. Jones has me eating in the palm of her hands. I am nothing but seriously enthralled with this book.

Sara McMillan’s good friend has recently acquired a Storage Unit from an auction. In charge of its contents, Sara got her hands on a very interesting diary, one that belongs to a Rebecca Mason. It’s full of mystery and dark seductive secrets that Sara could not help but become obsessed with her. Intrigued just as I am, Sara attempts to find out what happened to Rebecca. In her search, Sara ends up in the midst of Rebecca’s life. She takes on a job at the high end gallery, having the mysterious Mark Compton as her boss and ends up dating the sexy, rich artist Chris Merit.

This book is full of mystery with a good bit of romance element. The sexual tension was heavy and the sex scenes steamy. The character build up was great including Rebecca, whom we only get to know via her diary. Chris Merit is totally swoon worthy in every way, definitely comparable to the hero’s from Fifty Shades of Grey and Bared to You, maybe even better IMO. *gasp* Did I say that?

Also the fact that the setting is in San Francisco/ Napa was a plus for me. It was nice to see this book live its story in my neck of the woods. The mention of the history of how Napa put California on the map was impressive. Although, I must say, that I really didn’t pay attention to the history much but what Sara and Chris were doing at THAT moment. I will never think of limo tours in Napa the same way or maybe I should say I now have a great idea for my next trip to Napa.

Overall, I highly recommend this read for Erotic Romance/light BDSM and Contemporary Romance readers. Absolutely another enthralling trilogy you can follow and drool over.

The next installment is called Being Me (Inside Out Trilogy #2) and will be released February 2013

The Men of the Zodius Series

The world will never be the same…

Inspired by The Underground Guardians Series – Read about the Underground Guardians that inspired ZODIUS SERIES here

A little about future heroes including Caleb’s story HERE

Area 51 has proven to be more than a place from which alien rumors originate. It is there that the United States government created Super Soldiers under the top secret “Project Zodius,” soldiers they called GTECH enhanced. Alien DNA purported to be immunizations was injected into elite soldiers, and a new race was created—soldiers with unique powers. Human to the normal eye, but not quite so human anymore.

All Super Soldiers are dangerous but some are stronger and more powerful than others. All are fighters with incredible strength and speed along with unique mental powers. Rapid metabolism delivers them an amazing ability to heal from injuries, and a simple bullet is no longer deadly against muscles like steel. They are deadly fighting machines who can travel with the wind.

Along with this new breed of soldier had come a thirst for power. A thirst that Adam Rain intends to sate. This soldier had developed a vision for a “perfect race.” He became the new Hitler, calling his followers, those enhanced soldiers, the “Zodius.” The first step in Adam’s plan to rule humanity had been to take over Area 51. The main obstacle to his plan had been breeding, and he had a team of scientists working to solve the problems: a GTECH can only bear children if mated; and a Zodius only has one true mate (Lifebond). This meant he had to find compatible women for his men, an obstacle he became determined to overcome. This had left him searching for genetic and alternative birthing methods. He had used humans like tokens, promised them power or conversion, or threatened their families. Once he has perfected a way to grow his race, there will be no stopping him.

A group of these Super Soldiers led by his brother, Caleb, has defied Adam’s rule and formed “The Renegades.” These Renegades operate from a hidden facility deep in the Nevada mountains below the surface of the earth, designed to hide the Renegades from Zodius radar. These Renegades will form an uneasy alliance to the United States government, protecting humanity.

But Adam aspires to rule the world, and he believes he can do so with Caleb by his side. Adam is taking every step possible to ensure that Caleb joins him, and that the Renegades become part of the Zodius.

Caleb and his Renegades will do anything to see Adam fall and humanity saved from his wrath.

Now meet the men of the Zodius Series!

Review: Hot Secrets by Lisa Renee Jones

Hot Secrets

by Lisa Renee Jones

3.5 Feathers

Lauren Reynolds is an assistant DA and is working on a big case and keeps receiving disturbing phonecalls but shrugs it off as part of the job, despite the gut feeling that these may be more dangerous then she wants them to be. Royce Walker has secretly been hired by Lauren's father to check out any threats against her. He doesn't count on the sizzling attraction between them that soons deepens in to more, but he has a choice to make, keep lying to Lauren to keep her safe or risk everything and tell her the truth.

Every woman needs a man like Royce Walker, he was damn near perfect, talk dark and sexy, skilled in the bedroom and sensitive to Lauren's needs, emotionally as well as physically he seemed to be able to read Lauren's mind! He was sickenenly perfect, all other men now pale in comparison! Lauren was also good, sensible and sweet and I really felt for her as she had the family from hell, the wicked step mother, the creepy step brother and the uncaring father, I thought the way she went after her dreams despite pressure from them was admirable.

The romance betwee Lauren and Royce was hot, you could feel their mutual attraction from page one, I got a little eye rolley when Royce always does the right thing, he didn't quite seem real, no guy, in fact nobody is quite that perfect. The romance element of the story did eclipse the suspense side quite a bit, I didn't really feel an sense of danger and urgency as I was supposed to, but the continuing threats did keep the book moving at a fairly fast pace and although I had half guessed the person behind the threats it was still interesting enough to keep me reading.

I will definietly read more of this series, there are two more sexy Walker brothers to get through and I will be interested in seeing their happily ever afters.
