For the ecstasy they share goes beyond the dungeon igniting a passion that claims the very depths of the heart.

Prepare to want to be claimed.

Stacy Kennedy delivered one hell of a story in her first book of the club Sin series claimed.
Presley Flynn gives of her life and moves to Vegas to be with a guy. Well I have been in her place before with that and like Presley my situation didn't work out so well either.  Presley is a courageous and sweet character. She knew there was something missing from her previous relationship. She takes a leap of faith and goes out and seeks the forbidden fantasies that she's been reading about in her books.

Dmitri, oh my goodness, I believe that I have found my new book boyfriend.  He's the manager of one of those flashy Vegas casinos. He also owns Club Sin, an exclusive BDSM club.  I want to say that I am not in the lifestyle but it does intrigue me, more than I'm willing to admit. In my opinion I found Dmitri to be the perfect Don.  He’s dominant but not domineering, alpha without being to alpha and able to read a sub like it was second nature.   He just made me want to melt.  From the moment he appeared on the page, he’s presence sucked me in and make me fall in love.

I love Claimed.  This will be one I will be taking about and recommending for a long time.  A quick and sexy read that keeps you on the edge!  I loved that this story had a very “real” feel to it.  Dmitri and Presley will keep you turning the pages just to see where he can take her next.

Hard times mean hard choices, but falling for Noah Wilder is easy. Beneath his suit and tie, he’s seriously inked and seriously irresistible. When he walks into the Hot Ink Tattoo Studio, the attraction between him and studio receptionist Zoe is mutual – and fierce. And after the opportunity to ditch her demeaning second job to work for him instead arises, suddenly he’s her boss … and much more. With lines blurred in every way imaginable, can she balance passion and professionalism with doing what’s best for her struggling family?

Attraction is a powerful thing. So is former fighter Noah’s drive to make his growing mixed martial arts promotion company succeed, and if business happens to coincide with pleasure, so much the better. Tattooed beauty Zoe Ramsey is all his when she’s not working at Hot Ink – for twenty hours a week, anyway. When circumstances bring them close faster than they ever imagined, can he make her see that he’s just as serious about her as he is about the business he’s poured his heart and soul into?

My first impression of Noah was beyond who I thought that he would be. Walking into the tattoo shop with confidence, looking hot and was as wonderful as could be.  Yes, he is a man that knows what he wants and will not hesitate to go for what he wants. He also has a kind and caring heart. He looks out for those he cares for. Having the background of a mixed martial artist he's built, fit and sexy as hell. You would think that would make him a bad ass but he’s almost the perfect gentleman.

I have gotten to know and love Zoe through previous installments of the Inked in the Steal City series. Zoe is just wonderful character. She has a good heart, fun to be around, independent, beautiful, and very loyal and family oriented. She will go out of her way to do anything to help her family. Even to the point of self-sacrifice. Zoe is also unique, in that she has celiac disease.  I loved that Ms. Rose gave us a gluten free character.  Some by choice and others for health, people have to deal with in everyday life.  That is a nice touch added for reader to be to relate to in their reading.

Zoe and Noah were meant to be in my book.  I don’t want to say it was love at first sight but something was there.  From their first meeting at the tattoo shop, to the way he accommodate her by not eating food she couldn’t have in front of her.   The two complemented each other. Noah has his moments of being a man where they like to take control and try to make everything right.  Zoe is an independent woman and needed someone to stand by your side. From the steamy scenes in the bedroom to tender moments of being coming a couple Ms. Rose gave us a tantalizing read. Noah and Zoe make you want them to fall in love!

Ink Reunited

Ink Reunited By: Carrie Ann Ryan

From the streets of New Orleans and the heat of Midnight Ink, comes the happy ever after for a character whose story was begged to be told.

Sassy Bordeaux is the Midnight Ink receptionist, honorary godmother, best friend to many, and matchmaker expert. In the past two months, she’s watched eight couples fall in love, make mistakes, and find their happy endings. Though she might have had hand in each of those, she’s yet to find the peace she’s desired. When the men from her past come into Midnight Ink, she’s forced to face what she left behind and what could happen if she lets go of her pain and finds a future she deserves.

Rafe Chavez and Ian Steele remember their time with Sassy like it was yesterday, yet have worked hard to move on. Or at least try to. Now they’re both back in New Orleans for the woman they loved and for the connection they shared with each other. It will take more than the usual groveling, pleading and begging for these three to overcome their history, but once they take that step, the streets of New Orleans will never be the same.

4 Stars

I just love everything about Sassy!  From when I first read about her in the stories in Midnight Ink, I knew there was something more too why I liked her so much.   Sassy is not just her name, it’s who she is.  She has a commanding presence.  She has a wonderful heart and can see the good in people.  She is also one hell of a matchmaker. She will sacrifice herself for the good of others.  Sassy is one of those people that you just can’t help but to like.

Carrie Ann Ryan delivers Sassy story with the powerful emotions that she is known for.  Giving her not just one, but two loves pulls at your heart string even more.  Combining three people from different paths in life falling in love, parting and trying reuniting their passion had me holding back the tears.  How could Sassy not love both Ian and Rafe, they both have quality that will make your smile and touch your soul.

A sassy love story that pulls at your heart!

Up From The Grave By: Jeaniene Frost

The Grave Ends Here.  Lately, life has been unnaturally calm for vampires Cat Crawfield and her husband Bones.  They should have known better than to relax their guard, because a shocking revelation sends them back into action to stop an all-out war...

A rogue CIA agent is involved in horrifying secret activities that threaten to raise tensions between humans and the undead to dangerous heights.  Now Cat and Bones are in a race against time to save their friends from a fate worse than death...because the more secrets they unravel, the deadlier the consequences.  And if they fail, their lives--and those of everyone they hold dear-- will be hovering on the edge of the grave.

Final novel in the Night Huntress series.

As most readers of the Night Huntress series, I have come to love Cat and Bones.  Know the series was going to end sadden me a bit.  Ms. Frost created some amazing stories and gave us characters that we will be taking about for years to come.

With that said, Up From the Grave was everything that I expected from a Night Huntress novel.  A great plot, that had twists that this reader did not see coming. Surprises around every corner.  Lots of hard core vampire action that Cat and Bones are known for.  We get to visit with Cat and Bones friends that we have come to know and love.  The only thing that I can truly say that I was disappointed with in the book was it did kinda lack in the steamy scenes that has made me love Bones.

Ms. Frost did a wonderful justice to the ending book of the Night Huntress.  I got all my questions answered.  We went on hell of a ride.  Over many books in the series Bones asks Cat over and over to trust him.  He asked one more time for Cat to trust him and she does.  I was so happy to see that Cat did trust the one she loves and with that trust Cat and Bones got their happily ever after.
