HERE ARE A
COUPLE OF BOOKS THAT I HAVE READ THAT YOU SHOULD TOO!
X-Treme Confusion, book one
Author: Taylor Johns
Genre: Contemporary Erotic Romance
Blurb: Bent over, ready and wanton.
No
strings attached.
No
second dates.
That’s
the way I like things.
Fast,
hard and easy cleanup.
I
am a busy man with a dark past.
I
don’t need the distraction or drama that comes from a real relationship.
Call
me a jackass but at least I am honest about it.
There’s
only one woman that makes me want more.
One
woman who has worked her way into my soul. The thing is she doesn’t know it.
Soon,
soon I will have her. But once I do, I know I will destroy her. My darkness
will over take me and I will ruin the only good thing in my life.
My Review: This is the first book that I have read from the
author and I am so glad I got the chance to read this one. The main male
character Xavier (X) is one serious Alpha Male with major issues that makes you
want to hate him but deep down has a sweet side that makes you fall in love
with him. The main female character Lillian (Lilly) is a strong independent
woman with a smart mouth that tells it like it is and take no crap from anyone
especially from X. This book is hot and steamy from beginning to end. X and
Lilly fight to avoid their attraction to each other knowing a relationship is a
bad idea that can only end bad. When they can't keep their hands off each
other, they have a hot and heavy world wind of fun until it is ruined by a
cowardly mistake. Only a horrible tragedy can help them find their way back to
each other. This book will take you on a wonderful emotional roller-coaster
ride leaving you hot and breathless. I would recommend this book to any over 18
who is looking for sizzling page turner!
I Am ShelbyJames (Beauty in the Darkness
Book 1)
Author: Brooke Lee
Genre: Bisexual Erotic Romance
Blurb: I am Shelby James - self-loathing poet and artist,
daughter, sister, best friend, and bisexual commitment-phobe. My life has been
a lackluster existence. The only constant bright spot in my life my best
friend, my soul-mate, Veronica "Roni" Monroe.
For
years, I have given into my lust for both men and women, but now, at the age of
thirty-two, I realize I need more than just a booty call.
I
need more.
While
on my search for “more”, I find much more than I bargained for. This time,
giving into my urges may destroy everything good in my life.
Follow
me on my journey to find my happiness. To find the real me.
To
find the beauty in the darkness.
My Review: First I must say I won a free e-copy of this book from
author Brooke Lee with no promises of anything in return. The author tackles
the difficult and sometimes taboo subject of bi-sexuality and does a wonderful
job of it. The use of art and poetry as an outlet that the main character
Shelby uses to help deal with her emotions, insecurities and bouts of
depression that plaque her is awesome and easy to relate to. Even though this
book could fall in the erotic category because of the hot, steamy sex scenes
there is a really good plot about a struggling artist learning to love herself
and except the love of others. I recommend this book to anyone over 18 and
can't wait to read more from this author.
Night Walker (Undeadly Secrets Book 1)
Author: Aaron L Speer
Genre: Adult Paranormal Fiction
Blurb: Raised by her aunt as a baby after the death of her
father and her mother being institutionalized, Alexandra "Alex"
Hensley grew up determined to put the past behind her. As such, her boyfriend
Matt and best friend Lauren, became her new family, and her love for them was
unquestioned.
On
a night out, the trio meet Dante Delavega, owner of the hottest nightclub in
Sydney. Despite Lauren's advances, Delavega hovers over Alex like a mysterious,
protective shadow, all but completely ignoring her friends. His actions flatter
Alex but confuse and anger both Lauren and Matt.
To
prevent losing the two people that have been there for her for as long as she
can remember, Alex feels she owes it to them and herself to find out what it is
about Dante that is pulling them apart. But once she delves into his world,
Alex cannot go back. For Dante holds the key to the truth about her family.
When Alex discovers what really happened to her parents, she unlocks an
Australian secret kept hidden since the First Fleet.
But
no truth comes without a cost. A secret of this magnitude has remained due to
one simple rule: they join us or die. Suddenly, Matt and Lauren disappear and
Dante's greatest battle begins. Can he truly save Alex? Or will Alex have to
make the ultimate sacrifice, for those she loves?
My Review: A refreshing vampire story. This book is well written
and the characters are all great, even the secondary ones. The story line is
not forced and flows nicely with bits of the past added to add depth to the
characters. There is plenty of action, suspense, power struggles, betrayal,
love and lust. Unlike most vampire books and movies this book does not
romanticize what vampires are. This book has more of a realistic and authentic
take on the paranormal world. If you are a true fan of vampires then this is a
must read.
Guarding
Eden: A Midway Novel Book One (Hidden Wings)
Author: Cameo Renae
Genre: YA Fantasy
Blurb: Tucked away
at an upscale, private boarding school in Brindle Hollow, Washington,
seventeen-year-old Eden East comes face to face with a hideous creature on her
walk back to her dorm. Shaken to her core, she's left questioning the world
around her, and soon finds herself entering a friendship with a hot, new
student named Alexander.
Little does she know, Alex is a Guardian Angel, sent
from Midway to protect her from those dangerous creatures—known as
Darkling—lurking in the forest outside Brindle Hall. It isn’t long before Alex
learns this is no ordinary assignment. Eden’s existence holds a secret;
something hidden from even herself.
Eden is thrust into a world where Fallen angels and
creatures of the Underworld will stop at nothing to catch her. With Alex at her
side and a little help from some of his old friends, they form a formidable
front against the enemy.
Hopefully, it’s not too little, too late.
Guarding Eden is a Hidden Wings Spin-off Series and a
Midway Novel.
Intended for Ages 15 and over
My Review: WOW! Guarding
Eden is a spin off from the author's Hidden Wings" series. This book can
be read as a standalone but I would recommend reading the Hidden Wings series
first, it will give you background into some of the characters in this book,
plus they are amazing books. This book is an awesome read in its own right. I
set down this morning and started this book, here it is 12 hours later and I
just finished. I lost a whole day trapped in this book unable to put it down. The
two main characters Alex and Eden are perfect and the secondary characters
brings the book to life. There is some suspense, action and even a few funny
moments making this a great YA PNR book! A must read!

Mature
Content Warning: Mass Casualty is a medical thriller featuring two paramedics
and includes elements of action, comedy, heroism, crime, mystery, and suspense.
Some story elements are based on true patient encounters and could elicit a
strong emotional response. As this book is also a second chance romance, there
are erotica romance elements featuring explicit sexual scenes including light
BDSM.
My Review: I borrowed this book on my Kindle Unlimited. This was
the first book by this author that I have read and I believe this to be his
debut novel. For a first book, this was pretty good. I enjoyed the story line
and the characters were well written. There were a couple parts that bothered
me. First, I was quick to figure out the who, I was hoping for more of a twist
and to be wrong and shocked at the end but wasn't. I also expected some type of
police presence at the hospital after the "accident" and there was
none, for someone in the police cross hairs there was no sign of them. Over all
a good book that I would recommend to others.
