Kelly reviews Long For Me by Shiloh Walker

TITLE: Long for Me
SERIES #: Secrets & Shadows #0.7 (Novella about 80 pages)
CHARACTERS: Guy Miller & Christina “Tink” Bell
AUTHOR: Shiloh Walker
PUBLICATION DATE: May 13, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Christina Bell remembers what it was like to be part of a loving family. The youngest of the Bell children, she simply cannot believe that her dad, or anyone else she loves, had a hand in her mother’s disappearance. She’s looking forward to moving on and spending more time with her sexy best friend, Guy Miller, who she is starting to see in a whole new light.

Their attraction sizzling and love deepening, Christina feels confident in her life and ability to handle what comes her way…But when Nichole’s body is found—and the mystery of her death slowly reveals itself—Christina is left not knowing who to trust. What if Guy, her one true desire, proves to be her biggest danger?

REVIEW:
Long for Me is the final prequel novella in Shiloh Walker’s Secrets & Shadows series before book one Deeper Than Need comes out in June 2014. I really loved this story. I think Guy & Tink are my favorite couple so far. As always when I review a novella I can’t give you to much because I want you to read the book yourself. But I will say that questions get answered and lives will change again.

If you have not started this series you need to start with Burn for me. These novella’s are one overall story with each novella focusing on one of the Bell kids. I am very much looking forward to reading Deeper Than Need and seeing where Shiloh takes this series.

PUBLICATION DATE: April 18, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
In need of fast cash to help her brother sneak into the US, Tova Sorenson takes a job as a sexcam operator, sparking an unlikely friendship with her very first customer. When Marcus Lucero’s border patrol teammate suggests a sexcam site for female companionship without heartache, Marcus figures he’s got nothing to lose.

While danger from Tova’s dark side brings them together in the flesh where their chemistry burns hotter than hell, it also exposes their divergent loyalties which could end not only their desires, but their lives.

REVIEW:
Marcus and Tova meet under very unusual circumstances. But thanks to those circumstances Tova is safe, a little bruised up, but safe and Marcus will do everything to keep it that way.

This was a very quick read and an ever quicker romance. But Ms. Swan does a great job with Marcus & Tova. They have such great chemistry and an even better friendship. Yet the base of this story is deep. There is a lot that was happening in a very short time and as always Ms. Swan does an amazing job of telling this story.

Kelly reviews Sinful Surrender by Elisabeth Naughton

TITLE: Sinful Surrender
SERIES #: Aegis Security #0.6
CHARACTERS: Brian Walker & Grace Ryder
AUTHOR: Elisabeth Naughton
PUBLICATION DATE: May 1, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The next exciting story in the Aegis Security Series…

He’s been watching her, and now he’s here, in the dimly lit bar of the swanky Vail resort, pretending not to notice her. Songwriter Grace Ryder has never liked the spotlight, but her skin tingles whenever his sexy gaze drifts her way. Only one night will prove whether he’s safety or sin.

Aegis operative Brian Walker’s orders are clear: observe, but don’t touch. Things change, though, the moment the leggy brunette makes him an offer he can’t refuse. Desire leads to seduction, but it comes at a price. Because someone wants her dead, and if Brian’s not careful, his obsession for a woman he never should have touched could get them both killed.

**Previously published in the SINFUL SECONDS anthology. Available as a stand alone story May 1, 2014**

REVIEW:
Okay I have to start by saying if you have not read an Elisabeth Naughton book, shame on you!! This girl can right the hell out of a story. And Sinful Surrender falls into that category with 5 blazing hearts.

I am so in love with Brain. He is just so sweet, protective and full of guilt (serves him right). But nothing will make him take his eyes off the prize and the prize is Grace. Grace on the other hand is so quiet, sweet and kinda shy. But we all know those are the ones we have to watch out for. They are all kinds of sneaky. These two were so much fun to read. The interaction between the two was fun and Grace’s pick up like was the best.
If you are looking for a good quick read you need to give Sinful Surrender a chance. I am sure that you will fall in love just like I did. I can’t wait to see what is next in the Aegis Security series. I can’t wait for a certain big brother to get taken down by a sweet little gal 🙂

Kelly reviews Sensual Surrender by Katie Reus

TITLE: Sensual Surrender
SERIES #: The Serafina: Sin City Series, #2
CHARACTERS: Jay & Ellie
AUTHOR: Katie Reus
NARRATORS: Holly Fielding, Ryan Hudson
PUBLICATION DATE: March 3, 2014
AUDIO PUBLICATION DATE: April 24, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N | Audible

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
I’m ready to move on. Please don’t search for me. Please just let me go.
~Ellie

The note on the kitchen table shatters Jay Wentworth’s world into bits. Ellie is his lover, his soulmate, his best friend…she’s the woman who stood by him through the aftermath of a horrible explosion, the woman he’s planning to propose to. He’d do anything for her…except let her go. With his fierce protectiveness kicked into overdrive, he teams up with Ellie’s Hotel Serafina boss, billionaire Wyatt Christiansen, to find her. Ellie is family at the casino and they take care of their own.

Ellie is devastated when her secret past finally catches up with her. Stupid to think she could bury the mistakes of her youth and find happiness with a good man. Leaving Jay rips her heart to shreds, but it’s the only way she can protect him from the dangerous people she once ran with. And deep down, she fears he’ll never be able to forgive her for hiding her past from him.

The closer Jay gets to the truth about Ellie, the deeper he plunges into danger. He’ll move heaven and earth to save her, but if she can’t trust in Jay’s love it might be too late for both of them.

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts What is one to do when the wolves coming knocking on your door? If you are Ellie, you run. You run and leave everyone you care about behind. But that was the wrong move. Because Jay is not going to let Ellie run.

Another great story from Katie. Sensual Surrender has a quick start and just keeps going until the very end. Jay and Ellie are a great couple. Although I wish that Ellie would have confided in Jay before she ran. But that was part of what made this story so good.

I had the pleasure of reading this book before I received this audio version. I am glad to say that I did. While I loved the story of Jay and Ellie, I didn’t not like this audio version of the story.

It was not the story itself by any means. The story that Katie wrote was still just as good. I just did not care for Holly Fielding as a narrator. Ryan Hudson again did an amazing job! But with Ms. Feilding her reading style was too slow and withdrawn for me. It. Felt. Like. She. Was. Read. Each. Word. As. It’s. Own. Sentence. My other issue was the voices of the character. They just didn’t fit the voice that I had in my head.

I am sorry to say that I will not listen to any books narrated by Ms. Fielding in the future.

Kelly review Make You Mine by Macy Beckett

TITLE: Make you Mine
SERIES #: Dumont Bachelors #1
CHARACTERS: Marc Dumont & Allie Mauvais
AUTHOR: Macy Beckett
PUBLICATION DATE:
ORDER LINKS: Amazon |B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
For ninety-nine years, every man in the Dumont family has remained a perpetual bachelor. Residents of Cedar Bayou, Louisiana, whisper about a voodoo hex cast upon the family, sabotaging each man’s chance at marriage. In truth, the Dumont men have their own player personalities to blame, and Marc is no exception. As captain of his family’s riverboat, he’s broken hearts up and down the Mississippi. That is, until his high school crush strolls onboard…

Allie Mauvais rocks the boat when she fills in as pastry chef. She hasn’t seen Marc since senior year, when rumors flew that her great-great-grandmother was the one who cursed the Dumonts. After two weeks on the water, neither can deny the attraction that still burns between them. But to truly reach Marc’s heart, Allie must show him that the hex isn’t real, and it’ll take more than her mouthwatering sweets to prove it. Will Allie’s love be enough to finally make Marc hers?

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts What does Voodoo got to do with it. Well apparently if you are a male Dumont family it has everything to do with your love life. Well maybe not love life, but commitment to love. You see many many many years ago a curse was put on the Dumont family that the males would never find true love.

Marc says he doesn’t believe in the curse yet when it comes to the sweet, sexy and totally loveable Allie Mauvais he avoids her like the plague. Sadly, he wants nothing more than to be her friend (okay maybe more) but the curse is stopping him. But Fate, oh the fickleness of fate, throws them together Marc learns that cursed or not he can’t avoid Allie any longer.

Such a fun book!!! I love this new series by Macy Beckett. Marc and Allie are so good together! The twists and turns that these two go through make the book light hearted and heartbreaking at the same time. I loved every page and kept turning them to find out if the curse was real or not. Now I can’t tell you the answer to that. What fun would that be.
But, if you are looking for a great new read you need to pick up a copy of Make You Mine!!!

Oh and I can’t wait for book 2 Make you Remember (November 2014) Beau and Devyn are going to burn up the pages I am sure. Question is will it be with love or hate 🙂

Kelly reviews Giving In by Maya Banks

TITLE: Giving In
SERIES #: Surrender Trilogy #2
CHARACTERS: Jenson & Kylie
AUTHOR: Maya Banks
PUBLICATION DATE: May 6, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Kylie sees the way Jensen looks at her. The dark promise in his eyes. That rough edge of dominance she knows he possesses. But dominance is the one thing that frightens her above all else. She and her brother barely survived a childhood steeped in violence and abuse. She could never give up total control and submit to a man. Especially a man like Jensen. Could she?
Jensen sees the shadows in Kylie’s eyes. Knows he has to tread very carefully or risk losing any chance he has with her. All he wants is the opportunity to show her that dominance doesn’t equal pain, bondage or discipline. That emotional surrender is the most powerful of all, and that to submit—fully to him—will fulfill the aching void in her heart in a way nothing else ever will.

REVIEW:
3.5 Hearts Giving In is the second book in Maya Banks’ Surrender Trilogy. Will I enjoyed reading Jensen & Kylie’s story it was just a tad bit slow for me.

There was a lot of emotions in the book. Both Jensen & Kylie have some pretty bad demons in their past that they need to deal with. Jensen thinks that he has dealt with his. While Kyle knows she has not. These two do make a good couple as they both understand what the other has been through.

I am looking forward to Cheesy & Tate’s book. I hope that Chessy brings Tate to his knees.

Kelly & Kimberly review Blind Faith by Rebecca Zanetti

TITLE: Blind Faith
SERIES #: Sin’s Brother #3
CHARACTERS: Nate Dean & Audrey Madison
AUTHOR: Rebecca Zanetti
PUBLICATION DATE: May 6, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
A betrayal he couldn’t forget . . .

For Nate Dean, love is a four-letter word. As part of a secret black-ops military unit, he and his brothers were genetically engineered by the government to be ruthless soldiers with an expiration date. They were loyal only to one another . . . until Nate laid eyes on the woman who stole his heart and blew his world apart. Now, years later, his family is still paying the price for his mistake. But as time runs out, there’s only one person who can save his family: the very woman Nate swore he’d never trust again.

A love she couldn’t deny . . .

The moment Audrey Madison spies Nate across a crowded ballroom, she can barely breathe. He’s just as undeniably sexy as she remembers, yet there’s an edge to him now that’s as irresistible as it is dangerous. When he asks for her help, Audrey can’t refuse. But she has secrets of her own-secrets that, if Nate ever discovers them, may cost them both their lives .

KELLY’S REVIEW:
4.75 Hearts Nate Dean is not only fighting for his life he is fighting for his brothers and the truth. A fight that is close to coming to an end. Nate has a few more things to do before time runs out, find his youngest brother, save Mattie & Shane and make sure the only woman he loves is safe. No matter the cost he must pay.

Book 3 in Rebecca’s Sin Brothers series takes us back into the world of super soldiers, family love and revenge. This was a great book as always Rebecca takes us on a wild journey of the Dean brother’s mission to save the freedom that they fought so hard for. But as time is slowing ticking away and a very deadly deadline looming over them this mission is now in a critical state. Nathan & Audrey’s book has a lot of emotional ups and downs. There is a lot of hurt but a lot more love between these two. The questions is can they overcome the pain from the past to have a future together?

If you have not read the first two books in the Sin Brother series you need to read them before you read Blind Faith. I can’t wait for the next book in this series. The teaser at the end of Blind Faith has my anxiety going 🙂

KIMBERLY’S REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts This is the third in the Sin Brothers series and maybe the best so far. This one starts with Audrey and Nate having known each other and been in love years ago so the connection is pretty instantaneous. As with all the brothers they are diamonds in the rough. Trained to be killers and yet have managed to find their hearts in the process. We didn’t get to see a lot of the brothers from the first two books (Matt and Shane) but when we did the love and commitment between them is one that stands the test. Audrey is an interesting character as well. She is so strong but yet is still a little girl wanting her mothers approval.

As with all of Rebecca’s books this is a page turner. It has the feel of the GhostWalkers feel of Christine Feehan so if you like that series you will enjoy this one too. I can’t wait for the next in the series about Jory. Something tells me he will be the best of the four brothers.

Kelly reviews Saving His Mate by Savannah Stuart

TITLE: Saving His Mate
SERIES #: Crescent Moon #4
CHARACTERS: Rex Serano & Margery
AUTHOR: Savannah Stuart
PUBLICATION DATE: May 5, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
From the moment vampire bounty-hunter Rex Serano meets sexy shifter Margery, he’s smitten. When the alpha of the Kincaid pack asks him to join with them, he’s stunned by the offer, but the real draw is the beautiful, caring female who seems to want nothing to do with him.

Margery is the driving maternal force for her pack and she has one rule: she doesn’t date vampires. Years ago she was nearly killed by rogue vamps and she has no interest in getting involved with one now. No matter how sexy a certain, persistent bounty hunter might be.

When one of Rex’s hunts gets messy, Margery gets caught in the crossfire and he’ll do whatever it takes to protect her. They might be different species but the mating call is undeniable and too strong to ignore. Now they must find a way to reach common ground and trust their instincts if they’re going to fight for a future together.

REVIEW:
3.5 Hearts The 4th book in Savannah Stuart’s Crescent Moon series was a quick read. But a good quick read. A lot of things happen in a very short period of time. But Savannah does a great job of making the story not feel rushed. Sometimes that is hard to do in a novella. But like every good novella it does leave you wanting more. Wanting to know how Rex & Margery are doing. What is going to happen to them in the future. Well the past ever come back and bite them? So many questions. I hope that Savannah will revisit these two in a future novella and maybe answer a few of these questions.
If you are a fan of Ms. Stuart you will surely enjoy Saving His Mate. If you are new to this series I would suggest starting from the beginning :). Not that you have to Saving His Mate can easily be read as a stand alone.

Kelly & Kimberly review Frisky Business by Tawna Fenske

TITLE: Frisky Business
CHARACTERS: William Barclay & Marley Cartman
AUTHOR: Tawna Fenske
PUBLICATION DATE: May 6, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Marley Cartman is fed up with arrogant rich guys who treat her like garbage, so she vows to only date men with modest paychecks and a little dirt under their nails.

Her new boss, William Barclay, is exactly the kind of man she’s trying to avoid: an eccentric millionaire with duct shape shoes and an unexplained vendetta against her.

But as Will and Marley butt heads over grumpy badgers and phallic artifacts, they discover that sometimes the opposite of what you want is exactly what you need.
KELLY’S REVIEW:
4 Hearts She finally did it… She moved to Bend. She is finally doing what she wants to do. Well kinda, Marley is still trying to convince her dad that he doesn’t know best, trying to keep the secrets of her past secrets and trying hard to avoid her very hot, down to earth and uber rich new boss. Why you ask? Because she is has been burned more than once by a man with money.

Frisky Business is a story about new starts, new love and realizing that you have to grab on to what makes you happy. I loved that Marley thinks that all her man problems will be solved simply by dated a man that doesn’t have tons of money. It made it rather funny when she went on some rather interesting dates. My favorite was the model airplane guy…. hehehe.

This was a fun book. Like all of Tawna’s books you will laugh, cry and wonder how the heck she comes up with this stuff. 🙂 If you are looking for a feel good book you really should pick up a copy of Frisky Business.

KIMBERLY’S REVIEW:
4 Hearts This is a delightful humorous story which I enjoyed very much. I was chuckling/smiling before chapter 3 and didn’t stop most of the story. The humor that is written for Will and Marley is so funny. They are so snide and quick witted. Besides the humor the writing of the story is well done as well.

I have not read anything from this author before but I will be reading her again. While funny the story was also poignant in understanding who you are and what you need to overcome to become that person. I will say that I had a problem with each “average” guy being a jerk or dork. Sure we all want to end up with the millionaire sweetheart average guys are not all bad. I wish there had just been one guy who was average and sweet and a good guy but they just didn’t connect. But that being said I really enjoyed this book very much.

Kelly reviews Sinful Seduction by Katie Reus

TITLE: Sinful Seduction
SERIES #: Red Stone Security #8
CHARACTERS: Alexander Blue & Mina Hollingsworth
AUTHOR: Katie Reus
PUBLICATION DATE: April 28, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
He’ll do anything to protect her….

Former Marine and newest Red Stone Security employee Alexander Blue is still adjusting to the civilian world after a decade spent at war, but when he sees someone in danger, nothing can take away that intrinsic need to protect. After stopping a would-be mugger, Blue finds himself being bandaged up by a sensual local artist in her Key West condo. He never expected to stay the night, even if it is on her couch. The mysterious Mina gets under his skin in a way he never thought possible. When it becomes clear that her mugging wasn’t random and she’s being targeted by deadly men, Blue has no problem stepping into the role of protector.

But she doesn’t want to be saved

Tired of being coddled and treated like a child, Mina has tried to distance herself from her family. When danger finds her, she’s forced to turn to the sexy stranger who she feels a strong, unexpected connection with. In him she sees glimmers of herself; a little broken, withdrawn and wary of the world. Soon she learns that the biggest threat might not be from the men trying to kidnap her, but from the quiet warrior who poses an immediate risk to her heart.

Sinful Seduction appears in Sinful Seduction anthology

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts I would say breaking up an attempted mugging is not the best way to meet a woman, but leave it up to Alexander Blue to do just that. Being in the right place at the right time not only let him save Mina from being mugged, kidnapped or worse, but also gave Blue a chance met a woman that just possible could be it for him. That is if she will let him get close.
Another great Red Stone Security story. My only issue is that I read this story so fast. I wanted more of Blue!! I just loved him and Mina! I hope to get a glimpse of them in a future Red Stone Security story.
If you are a fan of this series you will want to make sure to add this book to your must read list. If you are new to this series not worries this book can easily be read as a stand alone.

Kelly & Kimberly review When We Met by Susan Mallery

TITLE: When We Met
SERIES #: Fools Gold #13
CHARACTERS: Angel Whittaker & Taryn Crawford
AUTHOR: Susan Mallery
PUBLICATION DATE: April 29, 2014
ORDER LINKS: Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Angel Whittaker earned his scars the hard way, but the scars that can’t be seen are the ones that haunt him the most. Since he moved to Fool’s Gold, California, he’s cobbled together a life for himself as a bodyguard trainer. If he’s not exactly happy, at least his heart is safe.

Working with pro-football superstars taught tough-talking PR woman Taryn Crawford one thing—she can go toe to toe with any man. But then dark, dangerous former Special Ops Angel targets her for seduction…and challenges her to resist his tempting kisses.

Even in four-inch heels, Taryn never backs down. Unless, somehow, Angel can convince her that surrender might feel even better than victory.

KELLY’S REVIEW:
3.5 Hearts Another good story from Susan. I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the past Fool’s Gold books this was still a really good book. I have been wanting to read Angel’s story since he stepped on to the pages. He seems like such a scary dude, but is really a softy at heart. His back story is heart breaking. Tayrn, kinda rubs me the wrong way. I am not sure if it is because she is trying too hard to never be what she once was? Or if she is a little on the stuck up side. But either way I think that Angel & Tayrn made a good couple.

I am looking forward to the next book in the Fools Gold series.

KIMBERLY’S REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts Fool’s Gold is my favorite fictional location and it is always a great time to go back and visit. Susan Mallery is the Queen of Contemporary Romance in my opinion and I love spending time in her world.

This story took me a little bit to get into. Taryn is so “city” that it was hard to see her in a small town but somehow she acclimates to the town and it because part of who she is. Angel is the last in the CDS men and I couldn’t wait to read his story. He has had such an interesting past. Taryn is the best person he could have in his life and I loved their story. I so loved the softer side of Angel. Reading about his Acorns and when he confronts his past was so sweet.

I loved the little changes in this story and yet still keeping with tradition. The dumped party was great. The slogan change of the town is great. What the “boys” want to change it to had me chuckle every time. And I can’t wait for the rest of the football players to get their “happy ending”. I hope the sentence from Mayor Marsha about needing a S&R team is a hint of what 2015 will bring to Fool’s Gold. And on a personal note: Thanks Susan Mallery for mentioning Asheville, NC. I live right outside it and the city is worth a visit.

Kelly reviews Tangled Innocence by Carrie Ann Ryan

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Humans aren’t as alone as they choose to believe. Every human possesses a trait of supernatural that lays dormant within their genetic make-up. Centuries of diluting and breeding have allowed humans to think they are alone and untouched by magic. But what happens when something changes?

As one of the seven lightning struck women, Nadie Morgan has known for a while now that her fate would be forever changed…and revolve around a certain dragon. From the first time Dante Bell saw Nadie, he knew she was the one for him. There’s just one problem–there’s another in his life he’s waiting on as well.

When Jace Goodwin, a bear shifter and Mediator, finally comes back to the human realm after years away under circumstances out of his control, his first stop is to Dante’s Circle where he not only finds his dragon, but the woman they both have been waiting for.

Once secrets are told and the sparks fly, Nadie’s new life becomes something she never thought possible. However there’s another realm at play and Jace and Nadie’s dragon will have to fight harder than he’s ever fought before to keep the life he’s waited eons for.

Warning: Contains one not-so-innocent human, a bear known for his bear-hugs, a tattooed and pierced dragon with a fiery temper, and a connection so explosive, you’ll be fanning yourself from page one.

REVIEW:
A Dragon shifter who has waiting 10,000 years for his mates.
A Bear shifter who is finally home and ready to claim what is his.
And a not so human female that will forever tie them together.

This was a good story, although maybe not a great as I would have like. There was something just a bit off for me. I don’t know what really. It is just in the past I have held Dante up on a very high pedestal and I didn’t feel the same connection with him in this book. It was not until the end of the book that I felt we had the old Dante back. So maybe it was just a case of him having to be way too serious in this book.
Jace the sweet tough bear shifter was fun to get to know better. But Jace sure goes through a lot in this book. It was great to see that Nadie finally get a little happiness. Overall this was a good continuation in the Dante’s Circle series and sets up perfectly for the next book (Faith & Levi)
