***REVIEW*** Revue by KM Golland

Synopsis


He was on a collision course.

… I had paved my way

He answered to no one.
… I respected authority
He wanted me.
… I despised him
He didn’t take no for an answer.
... NO!

When freelance photographer, Corinne Lee, is required to visually document the nationwide tour of Wild Nights Male Revue, she finds herself in a world of near-naked, testosterone-fuelled men on stage—not her photographic muse of choice. She also finds herself in the arms of Josh, the revue’s star performer.

Josh Adams thrives on the limelight, the stage and, most of all, the attention of women who endlessly throw themselves at him. He dances sex, speaks sex, breathes sex … is sex! Josh lives for sex, but never with the same woman. 

When both opinionated and headstrong characters are closely thrust together in a lust-ridden and sexually-charged environment, which of the two will break first?
Will Josh realise that Corinne could be the exception to his ‘no strings’ rule? Or will Corinne let go of the fantasy of finding Mr One and Only?


My Review

“Why do you fuck so many women?” 

“Because I like to.” 

I stared at him. “That’s it?” 

“Yep. I like to fuck. I like to fuck women. They like to fuck me. So … 
we fuck.”
Are you ready for the show?

Well pad your panties ladies because Wild Nights Revue is coming and it’s an experience you do not want to miss. You’ll see soon to be brides, old grannies, wild and crazy attention seekers- all just waiting for that famous ear whisper.

When Cori gets roped into a job photographing this all male revue show she wants nothing more than the three months she is stuck on tour with them to pass. She doesn’t know how much she can take of the man-whoring and arrogance of some of the guys…well one guy in particular.



Josh is probably the biggest man-whore around. He is cocky and arrogant and so full of himself that just the thought of him repulses Cori. So why-even after she finds him f*cking a chick backstage does she have to keep reminding herself of all the reasons she shouldn’t want to be just another meaningless notch to him?

“Sweet Jesus, that thing looked delicious! But let’s face it, like babies, not all cocks were gorgeous. Some were weird looking and, at first glance, all you could do was mentally will your lips to part and say the words ‘Mm…yum’ when really you were thinking ‘er…um’.

Josh is your typical bad boy- drop dead gorgeous and ultimate ladies’ man. He doesn’t do commitments or relationships. He is all about the single act of sex. And boy is he good at it. Maybe a little too good. I mean even I was getting a little stomach churning just thinking about how many women he has had to f*cked before to have a tongue and moves like he does.

But when he sets eyes on Cori- something in him breaks. He is confused by his new ‘feelings’ but wants nothing more than to explore them- with her. To see if he is really as f*cked up as he thinks he is.

There’s more to life than sex, you know.” 



“Yeah, there is, sweetheart. Sex with me.” 

Josh leaned closer, his breath hot on my neck. 
“And you’re gonna experience that real soon.” 

I turned toward him. 
Bad idea. 
Terrible mistake. 
Our faces were centimetres from touching. 

“No I’m not.” 

“Oh, yes, you are. In fact, I’m going to make it my sole mission before this tour has ended to get you on top of my cock. And I’ll let you in on a little secret, sweetheart … you’re gonna love it.”


This was a crazy sexy story with a lot of Magic Mike type dancing and holy mother effing shitballs you will be wishing you were in that crowd screaming and panting right along with all the other ladies. Josh and Cori have a sort of instant hate/love relationship. Josh wants to more than just make Cori his one night stand but convincing this level headed woman of that is another story. Cori has built up walls and doesn’t believe in meaningless sex so she refuses Josh at every turn- but only she can take so much. 
This story will have you glued to your kindle. Its sexy, funny, playful and yet a bit somber. I absolutely love KM Golland and she is one of the only authors I will read when I suspect there will be cheating. It doesn’t matter because KM has a way to make you love and feel for the characters regardless. Both Josh and Cori’s actions pissed me off and made me sad at the same time.

If you are in the mood for a sexy insta-love type, fast paced story then I would definitely recommend Revue! Its extremely sexy and flirtatious. I would have liked to see a couple more sex scenes and maybe a little more depth to the characters. We got some background on them but not as much as I would have liked. That said- I still loved Josh and Cori and KM’s writing was fabulous as always. I love the humor she writes with. It has a way of making the shittiest situations lighter and bearable.

Burn

Burn by Maya Banks
My rating: ★ 4 Stars ★

Burn (Breathless, #3)









description





Twenty- eight year old Josie is an Art Grad. A Free spirt living a carefree artist’s life. A chance encounter with Ash makes her question everything about herself.



~“If you wore my collar, you’d damn well know you belonged to me,” he growled. “Furthermore, you wouldn’t regret for a moment that you gave yourself wholly to me. If you were in my care, you’d definitely belong to me. There’d be no question.“ ~


Ash meets Josie and is instantly intrigued. Never has a woman been immune to his charm. An all consuming feeling he can't figure out makes him do anything in his power to have Josie.



~ Something about her brought his caveman instincts roaring to the surface. he was lucky he could form coherent sentences without growling, beating his chest and dragging her back into his cave by her hair.~


Josi has been in a Dominant/submissive relationship with Michael, When Ash starts to make her question her relationship she ends it with Michael. When Michael turns on her, Ash steps in and refuses to let her go.


Ash helps her see that she’s been doing all the giving while getting none in return, and he convinces her to try letting him take care of her in all the ways she truly deserves.



~"Nothing I can ever give you could compare to your gift of submission. The gift of your trust. Nothing is more valuable than that, and you can't put a price tag on that kind of gift." ~



This was a little insta love. Yeah ok it was a lot Inst love. But I'm not to fussy with Insta love. It can happen.

description


The sex was a little more dominate in Burn than the other two.



~ " Going to blindfold you. It will heighten your other senses. Want you to trust me completely to give you pleasure."~



description



The sex was hot. Ash was total dirty talker.. I love dirty talkers

~“In my mouth, Josie. Come all over my mouth. I’ll work you back up again. I’ll make it good for you.” ~


I liked Ash he was total Alpha. Dominating but still sweet.

description


I liked that Ash was upfront from the start. About anything that could hurt her.
except that one little detail. The one that she finds out about...

I think the difference with this one is Josie really doesn't fight Ash's dominance but embrace's it.
I like that. It was a little different to othe female leads that are spunky and fight their submission.

I was worried about his sister. I kept waiting for some drama to come out and slap us in the face.

I loved the girls night out! hahahahha they are the best!
Overall I enjoyed the final in the trilogy.
But have to say Gabe and Mia's story is my fav.
I know heaps of people didn't like Gabe cause what he did. And I agree the thought makes me sick. But and it's a big but… I just liked them so much!!!!

If you haven't started on this series, then get on it! You won't be disappointed.

Axel

Axel by Harper Sloan
My rating: ★ 4 Stars ★

Axel (Corps Security, #1)












description



~Fate hasn’t always been friends with Isabelle West. In fact, fate has been a downright bitch.~




Isabelle West really has had it bad. After being knocked down over and over she finally is taking her chance to live free, breathe easy.

When her ex husband won't let go, it sets off a chain of events that pull Isabelle back to the most horrible time of her life.
Everything she knew has become a lie.
Looking into the face of the man you love, the man you thought was taken away from you was the last thing she ever expected.


Axel has carried his anger over Isabelle West since the day she broke his heart.
Their dreams didn't go to plan, he accepted it, but fate intervenes bringing them back in each others life. Now he is faced with protecting her.

The pull she has always had on him makes it hard for him to hold onto the anger.
Can he forgive her for turning away from him? How can he protect her from the danger when she isn't being honest how far it goes.

With their past filled with lies, a crazy Ex- husband, some kick ass friends and some sexy ex-Marines, Can Iz and Axel find there way back to each other?



Ok..
I hate it when I'm not 100% sure what I want to rate a book. Sometimes it's just too much pressure.
What works for one might not work for the other.
I have sat on this for 2 days now and I'm still stuck.
So I'm reviewing this one a little different to my normal style.


Did I enjoy Axel?
YES
Did I absolutely fall in love with it?
NO
Did I get a healthy dose of Alpha Males?
YES
Were there awesome sexy times?
YES
Did it frustrate me?
OMG YES
Would I read the next one?
HELL YES



So I guess what I'm saying is I didn't love it love it I just liked it.

Lets talk about the things I did like.


GREG….. Sweet mother of GOD give me Greg right now. I wan't him yesterday…
description
~"Baby girl? I know you're scared. Iz mark my fucking words, he will not touch you. Do you hear me? He won't breathe your fucking air, I promise you that."~




Seriously I can NOT Wait for his story.
He was my type of Alpha


~"Oh really? So, you can see through fucking wood and steel now? I didn't realise you picked up fucking super powers. Remind me next time to just have you beam me the hell over, sure as fuck will save on the gas." ~


Hahah I kinda liked him more than Axel…..


But that's not to say Axel wasn't good. He was, he was total sexy badass.


~“She was mine.
She is mine.
She will always fucking be mine.”~

description

I loved the sexy times.


~ "You feel how fucking hard I am for you? I can feel your warm fucking c*nt hugging my dick, even through my god damn pants, you are on fire for me." ~



description




I loved all the Bad Ass Men of Corps Security.

description


I loved Isabelle's side when she was carefree and little a bad ass. She was funny at times



~ “Axel Reid, you wake up right now!” I yell. “Get your paws off my tit and call your dick off its search for my pussy, he found it asshole, now back off.”~


I really loved it when they finally got together. Bring on the sexy times, the sweet words and playfulness any day.



~“Never again, Izzy West. I will never again let anyone take you from me, or anything from us.” ~


Loved that they finally got their HEA.


description


But there were a couple of things that really frustrated me. And for me, it took away what could of been epic.


I wish Isabelle communicated a lot sooner. I thought that if you were standing in front of the man you loved and thought dead you would ask "How is that possible?"
She just assumed and from there was the delaying in communicating.


~“Process? What the hell is there to process? Where are you, Izzy? Not asking you again, and I am not fucking doing this text message shit like a goddamn prepubescent little shit.”


I hated the stressed feeling I got because I was an emotional mess waiting for them to communicate. I destroyed my nails reading this.


You know the moment when your waiting for them to finally click where it all went wrong. Then you can breathe easy. Well it felt like I couldn't catch my breathe for 50% of the book.
In saying that, some people love Angst. For me, too much angst stresses me. hahhaha


description




I really didn't like the way she treated Greg, not talking to him for ages.
But when he finally gets her to talk it was like a 2 sec apology and she was over it lol.

For a little bit at the start I thought we were gonna have a love triangle there.
I was getting mixed signals. But maybe I was just hoping to see some Greg ACTION hahaha.

I think a little more detail on The Corpse Security would of been really awesome. You know, seeing them in action, being their badass selves.
Maybe that will come as the series moves forward?



Overall Harper Sloan's debut definitely kept me interested.
She has all the ingredients for an amazing series, I guess for me the storyline of these 2 particular characters frustrated me, taking away everything else.

I have no doubt Greg's story is what will turn my view of this series from being good to freaking awesome.

Check it out for yourself.

Why Hello there Cowboy....


description


~"Sometimes when our lives are out of control, the only thing that makes us feel secure is to swing in the opposite direction. To control every last detail.” ~


And that's exactly how Andie lives her life.
Obsessed with following her life plan.

College
Career
Marriage
Children

Her life is one organised plan. One she will not deter from.

Until one night in vegas.


description



Gavin 'Mack' Mackenzie is one holy hot smoking Cowboy..
A night in Vegas for his brothers bucks night turns into something more when a sexy woman spills her drink on his lap at the blackjack table.


Andie decides to let loose for the weekend, relax. When she spots a sexy Cowboy across the room she heads straight over.
After clumsily spilling her drink on his lap and then proceeding to "Rub" it dry, Mack excuses himself to take care of the mess leaving Andie at the table.

Hahaha Andie and the Blackjack scene is a freaking HOOT!! Hilarious.



~"Soft Hand"
"Thank you. I use hand cream to keep them moisturised"
"Not your hand, the card"~



When Mack comes back to the table the chemistry between the two is on fire.



~"I doubted at this point that I'd be able to string a coherent sentence together. His beauty combined with his slow-talking cowboy sexiness had completely robbed me of any intelligence."~


After flirting and drinking they decide to go up to her room.

Now let me tell you the sex was Hot Hot HOT HOT


description


But I couldn't stop laughing at Andie's inner dialogue.
She was a dork. Pretty funny.


~ Sweet Jesus he's hung. Thats some kind of magic, the way he somehow fits that thing into those pants. ~


~ "Woo hoo" I yelled, pushing him down onto the bed and jumping on top of him. My leap was a little too enthusiastic through, because I misjudged my landing and fell to the side. I tried to catch myself on the edge of the bed but the stupid satin cover gave me nothing to grab onto. I tipped off the bed and fell onto the floor with a loud thud. I stayed there for a few seconds, waiting for the room to stop spinning.~





What was meant to be a one night stand, brings forth feelings they both weren't expecting.


~ Feeling his heavy body on mine, wallowing in the afterglow of the best sex I'd ever had, I questioned for the first time what the hell I was doing with my life.~



But waking up in Vegas, alone in bed, with a foggy memory about one sexy Cowboy is all Andie remembers. Leaving her to head back home with nothing but a name and a little niggling feeling that she is forgetting something, something important.


2 Years later…..


We find Andie about to get married to some Douche bag. Her obsession to stick to her life plan has pushed all her friends away.
When the application for her marriage comes through stating she is already married, Andie is taken back to the one night in Vegas 2 yrs ago she has very little memory of.



~"Says here in my system you married a man by the name of ... Gavin MacKenzie, on April tenth, two thousand and eleven... The signature matches the one you put on the form, maybe a little more messy, but it's the same one.
That name ring any bells? Gavin MacKenzie? What's that? Scottish?... "~


With a mission to find her 'Husband' and demand a divorce before her fiancé finds out, Andie sets off for Oregon.
What she wasn't counting on was her damn sexy husband Mack to make her life a whole lot harder.



~"I don't believe in divorce."~


Hahhaha that was gold. Loved it.

Mack is angry. He remembers every part of their night shared and 2 years later is still holding onto the hurt of coming home without his wife.

At first Mack is really cold and short with Andie and refuses to talk to her, leaving her hanging around his family waiting for a chance to talk.
Soon she finds herself warming up to his family and daily life on the farm.

As soon as they get near each other, the undeniable sexual tension is too much.



~“You’re my wife,” he said, only inches away, his hot breath flickering over my lips. “You married me in Las Vegas two years ago.”
“Yes.”
“And I’m your husband.”
I nodded, tears slipping out.
He gritted his teeth and growled out, “And this is us, consummating our marriage.” ~


Holy Shit the shower scene was fucking hot!


Mack believes what they shared in Vegas was something on a different level and he refuses to let her walk away. Not without a fight.



~"Why can't you just let me go?"

"I can't let you go because you're mine.” ~


She fights it, not believing one night in Vegas can amount to a fulfilling life long marriage. This is not part of her life plan, but the more time she spends with Mack, the more she finds it harder to make the decision to stay or leave?



~"It's not a second chance, Mack. It can't be."
He sat up next to me and pulled me to his side with his arm across my shoulders.
Touching his head to mine he spoke in a low voice.
"Yes, it can. We're still married. Why can't we just take a shot at making it work like a real marriage?"~


description


With the help of Mack and his funny and amazing family, can they show Andie what she truly is missing in life?



~“With that realization came the understanding that sometimes you can't appreciate the true beauty of a thing until you experience it for yourself; no amount of words or pictures will do the trick. And no amount of planning could make it happen. Sometimes, we just have to go where the wind takes us and see where we end up.”~

I really enjoyed this one. It kinda came out of nowhere and everyone was raving about it on my GR so I one clicked again… I'm glad I did.
I loved Mack. He was one sexy Alpha Cowboy. Seriously SEXY. Andie has her issues and at times I had to remind myself of those. She did frustrate me and at the same time I really thought she was funny. I loved that she was a little stubborn with Mack. It made the banter more fun.
This was sweet and sexy. Fun and playful with just enough steam.
Elle Casey hit a mark here. I do hope she continues on with Ian's story.

I must say the Sneak Peek of Casey's next release By Degrees has me VERY intrigued….. can't wait.

Off the Record

Off the Record by Sawyer Bennett
My rating: ★ 4 Sexy Stars ★

Off the Record (Off Series, #3)













Sawyer Bennett has had me at Offsides and I haven't been able to let go…





description



Ever Montgomery has closed herself off from men.
After coming home early one day and catching her fiancé in bed with her classmate, she vows never to let a man betray her again.


Hot goalie for the New York Rangers, Lincoln Caldwell is a rising star at the age of twenty- four. He works hard and he plays even harder. Ladies fall at his feet.
Then Ever walks into his life.



~"Aside from her stunning looks, I find her to be charming, hilarious and interesting. I can't remember the last time a woman intrigued me past the point of wondering what her bra size was, although I peg her at a nice B cup, which is my preference."~


Ever jumps at the chance to further her journalism career when her friend, Emily, gets her an interview with Linc, at his annual BBQ for his Team mates.

With a little banter and flirting, Linc opens up freely with Ever, even speaking off the Record. He leaves feeling like the interview went well, with the dark haired beauty on his mind.
With a few miss understandings and wrong place wrong time, Ever gets the wrong idea, and publishes her interview, painting Linc to be nothing but a womanising jerk, plus giving the information given Off the Record.

Linc is furious and instead of getting Ever fired he comes up with the idea that Ever come and stay with him, to see the real him, so she can write an honest retraction and public apology.
He refuses to allow her to paint him that way to his fans. What he doesn't understand is how he could possible be so wrong about her.


~"But I did fuck the woman you saw me with in my bedroom, and I fucked her hard and more than once. That's after I got her off with my hand. You remember that part, don't you? Now that's the truth.
And you can look at me all you want with contempt, but I don't apologise for who I am. You have no right to judge me or my sex life.~




As Ever starts to get to know the real Linc, she starts to realise her 1st impression was totally wrong.


~ Less than a week ago, I was beyond infuriated with this man, believing him to be the lowest form of scum on this earth.

Now?

I see someone different.

I not only misjudged his character, but I've learned very quickly that it runs deeper than I would have imagined. ~





As she spends more time with Linc, her attraction grows. Trying to push it aside, some things he says just makes it harder and harder to deny their attraction.




~“Your smile would bring a lesser man to his knees. But if you wore your glasses and smiled at me like that, it would topple me.”~



Linc starts to see a different side to the infuriating woman. His feelings toward her have been all over the place from instant attraction to anger to vengeance then amusement and fascination back to fighting his attraction.
But Ever holds something over him. He fights the attraction due to fear she is setting him up for more bad Press.


It's a slow sexual build up, The kiss on the couch.. The whole build up was totally hot. You could just feel the sexual tension coming at you.

The Hotel scene! OMG...
Bennett has this amazing talent with the buildup. It's believable and keeps you hanging on for more.


~The massage started out as I'd expected. He diligently worked my sore muscles until I was feeling loose and relaxed.
But the closer Linc got to my Ass, the more I kept imagining him taking his fingers a bit further. What would it be like if he just dragged one finger down the middle of my ass cheeks? Or as he worked his way up my legs, what if he cupped me with his hand? Would he feel how hot I was for him? ~




With Linc in doubt over her sincerity and Ever's distrust in men they slowly move past their issues and take their attraction further.



~His actions were intense and raw. I was stripped naked, but he made me feel more exposed and vulnerable…. stripped to my core.. with the way he moved inside of me.~


The sex was HOT. Of course, Sawyer does not disappoint.




~ His eyes bore into mine and he growled, I'm close… you better come with me, Ever. You better fucking come with me."~



As they grow closer and cross the line to something more, Linc sees the anger that Ever holds inside herself. Not allowing herself to let go.
He wants to pull her out and help her heal.




~"You're not broken. You just need some time to come to grips with what happened."~


But Ever holds back, not allowing the chance to give her self true happiness.




~"Linc… I don't deserve your goodness. And you don't deserve my badness..I am damaged goods. And I tried.. I really did. I wanted to be able to let you in so bad. But I'm just not emotionally able to."~



Will she push him away for good? Can she move past the hurt and truly allow love into her life. Give herself completely over to someone else?




~"Love has a lot to do with the power of forgiveness.”~



I really enjoyed this one. It had everything I wanted, plus more.
I must admit I'm still 100% Nix girl. ( I love me a grouchy bad boy) But Linc comes in a close second.
If you haven't started this series, Get on it. Off the Record is the 3rd in series but all 3 can be read as standalone.

After Math (Off the Subject, #1)








~"I'm broken Tucker. I'm hopelessly broken inside, and I'm not sure there are enough pieces in me to put back together. But when I'm with you, I feel like maybe I can actually be whole."~


Mathematics major Scarlett Goodwin goes to her classes, her job in the tutoring lab, and then hides in the apartment she shares with her friend.
She struggles with her social anxiety and is determined not to end up living in a trailer park like her mother and her younger sister.

Failing his required College Algebra class, Star soccer player, Tucker Price needs help.
With his eligibility is at risk, the university chancellor dangles an expensive piece of computer software for the math department if Scarlett agrees to privately tutor him.

After a rocky start, Tucker starts to show a side of him that makes Scarlett realise there is more to this bad boy, cocky, womaniser that everyone sees.

As they start to get comfortable with each other, we learn they both are vulnerable, broken and as trapped as each other.

Soon Tucker starts to effect Scarlett.

description

"For the first time, I feel genuinely connected to another human being and just my luck, it turns out to be Tucker Price.
And that's the saddest fact of all."


But Tucker still holds back, fearing he will only hurt her in the end.


~"If I kiss you now, I won't be able to let you go, and you'll end up hating me. Tell me to walk away right now before it's too late. Tell me to leave you alone so you can have the life you deserve, Scarlett Goodwin, and not get stuck with a fuckup like me." The agony on his face tells me he believes every word.
It makes me want him ever more. ~


description

~"Goodbye is too permanent. Goodbye has the risk of never seeing each other again. But good morning is full of possibilities."~


But Tucker can't stay away, taking the risk of knowing that he could possibly break her in the end.

~"Everything just feels so right when I'm with you, Scarlett. I can be me. But it's more that that. You give me something I haven't had in a long time, if ever. you give me peace. It's like the jumbled mess in my head can settle down, and I can be still with you. Like none of the other stuff matters."~



This was a sweet read. Tucker was your tortured hero, but was always upfront honest about not being good enough for Scarlett.
Even though they both suffered in their past. I really felt this was all about his journey, letting go of the past and guilt that he carried.
I really enjoyed this.

Against the Wall

Against the Wall by Rebecca Zanetti
My rating: ★ 4 Stars ★

Against the Wall (Maverick Montana, #1)









I love stories with strong family connections.
I love series on siblings.
The Lodge brothers Jake, Quinn and Colton with their baby sister Dawn tick all the right boxes for me.





description


Sophie is a landscape architect who works for her uncle's firm designing golf courses. Sophie finds herself in rural Montana trying to convince the locals to build the golf course on local Kooskia tribe's land.
While out surveying the land Sophie, is literally swept off her feet, when sexy Cowboy, Jake picks her right up onto his Horse.

Jake is a single father trying to balance life with his daughter, his ranch, and being Tribal lawyer.
Jake is instantly attracted to Sophie.

~"I caught her. I get to keep her".~

The next day Sophie finds herself going head to head with the tribe's lawyer.
The sexy Cowboy that rescued her up on to his horse…

Jake will fight her all the way on the land, they will not allow the golf course to go ahead.
Sophie needs her proposal to be approve, for the sake of her Uncles firm.
She is in Montana to get approval then leave. What she wasn't expecting was to fall in love with the county, and have eyes for the sexy Tribal Lawyer.

Jake is straightforward about his attraction. Jake decides he wants Sophie for as long as she is in town.


~ "I'd rather you didn't see me as a lawyer."
"What do you want me to see you as?"
"Hopefully someone you'd like to get to know better while you're in town, City Girl."~



The sex was steaming. Jake was definitely bossy. Love me a bossy man. But he still was sweet.


~"I'd give anything to stay inside you forever-just you and me, feeling you come over and over again, Sunshine.~

I really liked the storyline.
A sexy, domineering, alpha men , a sassy, feisty woman, awesome secondary characters and one really cute little girl.

Rebecca Zanetti's, Against the Wall, is the first book of hers that I've read. It definitely won't be the last.
I can't wait for the next in the series.

Henry

Henry by Andria Large
My rating: ★ 4 Stars ★

Henry (The Beck Brothers #1)









I really enjoyed this!
I picked this up as a freebie on Amazon and what a little treat.


Yes the sexy hunky CEO who falls in love with his PA has been done before but... I really enjoyed Henry in the fact that they didn't rush in and start humping right on his desk on day one.
It's a slow build up. There are things that happen that make them realise their feelings for each other and bring them together.

I loved the scene when Sebastian and Henry save her from the date from hell Omg something is wrong with me cause I was like ohhh yes get it on, do it!.... hahhaha so wrong.

By Surprise










M/M/F has me totally intrigued at the moment. 
I'm slightly becoming addicted… Hell lets be honest I'm already addicted. 
This little number sure did not disappoint!!!



Paxton and Nicholas are a happily married gay couple
Cleaning out the shed one day Nicholas finds a box of Paxtons cheerleader porn stashed away.
Nicholas doesn’t feel threatened by this, Paxton has always been honest with his attraction to women.
Nicholas wants Paxton to explore whatever sexual desires he has. Even if that means bringing a woman into the mix for a threesome.
With Paxton's Birthday right around the corner Nicholas even offers up a night for a woman to join them in the bedroom.

The next day Paxton runs into his childhood best friend, Jodi at the store.
Jodi has been out of Paxton's life for a few years but now Jodi is back after a nasty divorce.
Catching up over dinner, Jodi meets Nicholas and the three of them hit it off.

When Paxton and Nicholas offer a room for Jodi to stay and a place for to do her art, Jodi, jumps at the chance.
However as Jodi enters the picture life for the three of them is about to be turned upside down.
As Paxton and Jodi renew their old friendship, Jodi and Nicholas start a new friendship.

~"I'm not jealous, though. I’m grateful, I think. Getting to know you feels like getting to know a part of Paxton I wouldn’t have been able to without you."~


Jodi is happy and everything is going well until one night Jodi overhears Nicholas and Paxton making love.
She finds herself burning hotter than she ever imagined.

The unexpected turn comes when Nicolas starts to have feelings for Jodi as well.
It's a big shock to Nicholas to have an attraction and feelings for her especially when he has never liked women.

As they all come to terms with their feelings, guilt eats at them until it all comes to a head and truths are told.


~"Don't do this for me, Nicky," Paxton warned, pinning Nicholas with an examining gaze.
Holding Paxton's gaze with an equally piercing stare, Nicholas placed Jodi's hand against the raging erection straining behind his zipper. "Ask her if she thinks I'm doing this for you."~

~Sharing her sealed the circle. To make her theirs, together…to be hers, together—he couldn’t wait to know what that felt like."~



~"You are like a key, Jodi. You unlock a part of Paxton that I wanted a part of. At the same time, you reveal a part of myself that I didn't even know existed."~



I was definitely left wanting more of this threesome. The sex between the boys is hot for sure and when they do let Jodi into their Bedroom… HOT HOT HOT!
There is not a lot of steamy sex scenes, but the ones you do get are smoking…
I originally really liked Paxton but as Jodi and Nicholas got to know each other, I fell in love with Nicholas.
I wish there was an epilogue, would love to know how everything worked out after everything happened.

'By Surprise' was great little read,
It's quick, its fun, STEAMY and I really enjoyed it.

Surrender to Me

Surrender to Me









In his past, many had belonged to him but no one had ever possessed him the way she did. He may have been the Master, but she held all the power. She had his soul.






description



Living the life of the head Dominant in his circle isn't as appealing as it once was for Martin, owner of Master M's BDSM club.
Martin needs something more in his life.
When his attorney's retirement puts him in the market to replace him, Martin is introduced to Arrianna.

Ari's sassy attitude lands her the job as exclusive attorney to one of the most dominate man she has ever met.

Arianna is not like the women Martin, normally deals with. She is strong and independent.
He finds himself craving his feisty attorney, and the chemistry and flirty banter between the two, tells him that Arianna feels it to.


~"I can handle myself."
"Maybe in a courtroom, but a playroom is an entirely different animal."~



For the first time in his life, he was attracted to a woman who could challenge him and teach him and something different. He wants to take a chance on her.
Arianna makes it very clear from the start that she will not submit like the women in Martin's club, it's not something she can do. But something about the dynamics of Master and Sub intrigues her.

Their attraction is hot and Martin is willing to take her anyway he can have her.


~"I want you, and after last night there is no turning back for me. The thought of tying you to my bed and doing wickedly nasty things to you while you scream my name drives me insane."~



Arianna can't fully submit to Martin, but is willing to try in different ways. But fears she won't be enough for Martin.
Martin would love to make Arianna submit but knows it will take time, but even if she never did, he believes just being with her will be enough.


~"When I'm with you I want more. I want things I've never even thought about before. I like the way you challenge and tease me."~



Martin falls hard and fast for Arianna. He loves her sassy attitude at times, and part of her appeal to him may have been that she couldn't totally submit to him. The way she tests his limits unlocks feelings and desires he never knew he possessed.

As time and trust is earned, Arianna willingly submits to her Master.


~"I need you to dominate me." She gripped his shudders and shook against his chest. "I want to surrender to you, Sir." ~



description



~"You'll surrender to me over and over until you have no sense of time and place. You'll lose yourself in me. When I'm done with you, I'll be the only one who will ever exist in your world. You'll belong to me Arianna." ~


Can they find the balance of his Dominating ways and her not so Submissive attitude? Will she be enough for him? Can he handle not having total control over the woman her loves?



I really, really enjoyed this. I'm always a little scared with BDSM books. But I think I need to stop worrying and start enjoying cause in the last 3 BDSM books I have read, I have really enjoyed them.
This was my second Ella Jade read. I really like her writing style.
I loved that there wasn't really any major conflict / drama. I was waiting for it, but it was nice to read them communicate with each other.

I didn't read the 1st in the series before starting this, there was a back story involving 2 other characters and Martin, but didn't feel like I miss to much by not reading it.
However I will be going back to read Cade and Gracie's story. They have me intrigued.

I really hope Hunter gets a story...
