There was no way to tell what time it was, only that it was still dark, much later when she awakened. Layne’s hands were in her hair, tugging her this way and that. His mouth owned hers as he situated her to his liking, stroking his tongue against hers. Never before had she been kissed like this—so thoroughly. Trying to catch her breath, she wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her sensitive body to his. Since he had come back, she’d wanted this. She had all but thrown herself at him on so many occasions. Was this finally happening? Her stomach tickled as he moved his hands down her sides and stopped at her hips, fitting her body as tightly to his as he could. He ground himself into her, groaning deeply in his throat.


“Layne,” she gasped as he ripped his lips from hers, burying them in her neck. His breath was warm against her skin, moisture from his mouth trailed down the column as his tongue licked a trail towards her chest. This was all moving so fast; she wasn’t prepared for it at all. Her hands were on his head, and she gripped slightly, hoping to bring him to where she was, to slow things down. As soon as her fingers tightened, his body tensed.

Without warning, his hands moved from her hips. One hand pushed an arm up over her head, pinning her against the mattress, another came around her neck, squeezing tightly. She fought to open her eyes, and when she did, the person looking back at her wasn’t Layne. His eyes were so cold, glazed over, and his mouth sat in a firm line. He was breathing heavily, but it was obvious he was having a hard time realizing where he was.

“You have it don’t you?” he yelled at her.

She couldn’t answer, even if she had wanted to. The grip on her throat was too tight, too punishing. Jessica kicked with her feet, hoping to dislodge him, but even though he was no longer on active duty, he was in very good shape. He wasn’t overly muscular, but he was very lean and very much in control of his precise movements at this point. It scared her that she couldn’t take a breath into her lungs, and he didn’t seem to realize what kind of distress she was in.

“Don’t lie to me,” he yelled at her again. “I know you have it.”

Thrashing her head to the left and then to the right allowed her to get enough room to breathe, and when she did, she let loose with a blood-curling scream. Even that didn’t break the spell that Layne seemed to be under. Within moments, the door to the room burst open revealing Tyler and Liam.

Immediately, Tyler took in the situation and ran over to where they lay. “Layne, my man,” he told him as reached down and grabbed the other man by the waist. “Don’t fight me,” he yelled at him when Layne began kicking. Tyler’s muscles bulged as Layne struggled against him. It took everything Tyler had to hang onto the other man.

Liam scooped Jessica up from where she lay, helping to pry Layne’s hands from around her neck. “You alright?”

She gasped, inhaling deep breathes, rubbing the sore spot around her throat. “I’m good,” she heaved. “But I’m worried about him.”

 Meant
To Be

 



Single mother.

Laid off factory worker.

Drug runner for the Heaven Hill Motorcycle Club.




When Denise Cunningham is served with
foreclosure papers on her birthday it’s the last straw in a long line of bad
luck. Sitting and crying about things has never been how she solved her
problems, but this time she decides to do just that. A phone call interrupts
her pity party and changes the course of her life forever.


Loyal brother.

Grease monkey mechanic.

Vice President of the Heaven Hill Motorcycle
Club.


William Walker Jr., known as Liam to his club,
needs a new recruit that is just naïve enough and desperate enough to do what
he asks without question. When Denise Cunningham lands in his lap, he decides
to hire her - not because he wants to, because he has to.


Neither are comfortable in their new roles, but
he needs help and she can’t stand to lose anything else.


As bullets fly and a local Bowling Green, KY
reporter works to bring the club down, Liam and Denise find themselves getting
closer to one another. When the stakes get high and outside forces try to keep
them away from each other, they have to decide if they really are meant to be.



 

Out
of Darkness

 



Ex-News reporter. 

Rape survivor. 

Former enemy of the Heaven Hill MC. 


Meredith Rager’s life completely changed the
night she was attacked by an unknown person. Once a vibrant force that
threatened everything about Heaven Hill, she is now under their care. The only
place she feels safe is inside their compound. When she decides to take back
the part of her life that her rapist took away, she discovers secrets that once
again could tear the club apart. 


Orphan. 

Formidable force of nature. 

Loved member of the Heaven Hill MC. 

Tyler Blackfoot came into the world a John Doe.
An orphan from the moment that he took his first breath, the only thing anyone
knew was his Native American heritage. For most of his life, he’s been alone –
except for the club that has taken him in as their own. When he rescued
Meredith, a protective side of his personality came out that he never knew he
had. Protecting her means everything – even when he discovers danger might be
closer than either of them thought possible. 




Together, the two of them are trying to make a
life for themselves. Against everything they have, they’re hoping to see the
light that will lead them out of darkness.







 





Losing
Control




Strip-club waitress. 



Aspiring teacher. 

Friend of the Heaven Hill MC. 
Bianca Hawks met Jagger Stone in the most
embarrassing of ways. After watching him play music at Wet Wanda’s for months,
she fell half naked into his arms after a drunken bout with a stripper pole and
the back of a pick-up truck. Avoiding him and his killer smile no longer works
when she needs her car repaired and he comes to her rescue. His request for
payment comes in the form of date nights spent with just the two of them – away
from both the strip club and the MC. 







Tough guy with model good looks. 

Talented musician. 

Newly patched member of the Heaven Hill MC. 
Jagger Stone only wanted two things – to be a
patched member of the Heaven Hill MC and to get to know Bianca Hawks. One for
two isn’t bad, but when her car breaks down and she’s left with no one else to
help her, he plays the situation to his advantage. Over late nights driving up
and down the interstate and nights in spent at her apartment, Jagger realizes
that there is so much more to Bianca than he ever knew. 


When her dream of becoming a school teacher is
threatened by someone who wants her all to himself, the two of them are thrown
into a dangerous game of cat and mouse. For the first time, Heaven Hill isn’t
sure what they are up against or if they can keep their family safe. In times
of danger, Bianca and Jagger know the only thing they can do is hold onto each
other while trying not to admit they are losing control. 



 

 Worth
The Battle



Movie star running from her life.
Secret writer of erotic romance.
Trusts only Layne O’Connor of the Heaven Hill MC.
When Jessica Shea fears that her privacy is in danger, she takes the drastic step to leave her life behind and escape to the only person who’s never treated her like the movie star she is. He’s the one person who’s never sold a story to the tabloids and who knows the real Jessica, the one underneath the makeup and high-gloss shine of Hollywood.

Their friendship has stood the test of time. Now, someone has stolen private photos and writings from her home. Things that she doesn’t want the public at large to see. There’s only one place she knows she can go to be under the radar and lick her wounds.

That place is wherever Layne O’Connor is.

War Veteran.
Striving to live a normal life.
Member of the Heaven Hill MC.

Layne left a piece of himself in the war zone. Fighting PTSD and demons that he can’t explain has left him tired and changed from the man he was before he went overseas.

The only thing he feels like he excels at anymore is being a criminal, and he gladly does it for his brothers of the Heaven Hill MC. The only people who took him in when no one else knew what to make of his anger and

When Jessica arrives, however, she’s a trigger for everything he’s trying to forget. She makes him remember who he was before his life went to hell, she makes him want to get himself back. While working through those issues, he and Jessica are racing against an unknown enemy—someone who wants to destroy her reputation and take her sweetheart persona with it.

As they both work to trust each other and figure out just who her enemies are, they learn that love is never easy. They have to decide if the victory is worth the battle.

Halloween in Atlantis by Alyssa Day! Q&A with Giveaway!

HalloweenInAtlantisTourBanner2

NYT Bestselling Author Alyssa Day has a Halloween "treat" for fans of her The Warriors of Poseidon series. HALLOWEEN IN ATLANTIS, a novelette addition to the series, releases on October 29th!
HalloweenInAtlantis_AlyssaDay_finalNow that Atlantis has finally risen to take its place on the world stage, the Atlantean warriors are having to face some new and interesting dangers -- like Halloween parties.

Arrogant warrior Liam doesn't understand the beautiful, bubbly human whose entire function in life appears to be to plan parties, but he can’t seem to keep away from her, either. Jamie, who considers herself to be completely unflappable--the hallmark of a great event planner--doesn't understand why the far-too-serious Atlantean manages to get under her skin with every single encounter. Even if he is the sexiest man she has ever seen.

When the two of them are thrown together to solve a mystery surrounding the queen's missing jewels, sparks fly, secrets are revealed, and Halloween has never been hotter.

This novelette (longer than a short story, shorter than a novella) is perfect for reading on a coffee break - or in between handing out candy to trick-or treaters.

Check your favorite online retailer for HALLOWEEN IN ATLANTIS, releasing October 29th.

Alyssa Day is the pen name (and dark and tortured alter ego) of RITA award-winning author Alesia Holliday. As Alyssa, she writes the New York Times and USA Today best-selling Warriors of Poseidon, League of the Black Swan, and Cardinal Witches series, and won RT BookClub’s Reviewers’ Choice award for Best Paranormal Romance of 2012. She graduated summa cum laude from Capital University Law School and practiced as a trial lawyer in multi-million dollar litigation for several years before coming to her senses and letting the voices in her head loose on paper. Please visit Alyssa at www.AlyssaDay.com.
 
Q & A
 
With this being a Halloween release I thought it would be fun to ask Alyssa some fun Halloween related questions! 
 


Question one:


If you were able to take over the lead female character of a vampire movie, who would it be?


AD-The wife in Dracula Untold.  Because Luke Evans is totally hot and I would have been a lot tougher and made sure I stuck around!!



Question two:


Two part question. First part, what was your favorite thing to dress up as for trick-or-treating? Part two, what are you dressing up as for this Halloween?


AD-I was the Evil Tooth Fairy one year at a party I hosted.  I flew around decaying kids' teeth. It was awesome. But that ties with last year, when I was the TARDIS.  This year, I want to be Maleficent!



Question three:


You're stuck in a haunted house overnight, who are the other three people you have going in that scary house with you and why?


AD-My daughter, she loves watching haunted house stuff on TV.  My husband, Navy Guy, because he's laugh at it all.  And my pug, Daisy, because nothing is scary when there's a pug around.



Question four:


What is your favorite kind of candy?


AD-I don't understand the question.  There's a kind of candy that's NOT my favorite?

 

Thank you so much Alyssa for having some Halloween fun with us today.

review


4 Stars




An almost dream like adventure wrapped with paranormal mystery and lore.

Marilyn grew on me during the reading of Immortal Heat.  A well read young woman, but sheltered. A bit of a geek, however there is something fiery with in this beauty.  Marilyn smart, willing and brave.  When the history of myths and legends that she loves so much becomes a reality, Marilyn’s inner strength rises and pieces start to fit in place. From what should have been a trip to finish her studies quickly became an adventure in keeping her life. we see Marilyn make some amazing transformatios that not only change her from child to woman, she truly changes herself completely.

Draylon is a fierce warrior and protector. He's straight  from myth and legend. One of a kind. The man has a body that is sexy as sin. Draylon sheer presence is enough to make you weak in the knees. His presence on the page make sure kind of feel like you're in a dream state where every fantasy can come true.  Draylon made this story for me.

Ms. Lynne created a story that I truly got lost in. I had to read the book twice before I could sit down to write this review. The story was almost like a dream, not sure where reality and fantasy began or ended.  She created a world with all the paranormal creatures that I love. She gave us interesting characters that captured your heart and allowed you to get sucked into their story.  Heat and passion fill the page while getting lost in the amazing world Ms. Lynne has allowed the reader to play in.

Whatever your paranormal tastes are in the romance world, Immoral Heat will have something for you. I look forward to seeing what happens in the Guardians of Dacia series.

Review: Underneath It All by Kate Canterbary

22613745Underneath It All

Kate Canterbary

The Walshes, Book 1

Expected publication: October 21st 2014

 

If I had known I'd have a hot architect balls deep inside of me before the end of the weekend, I'd have made time for a pedicure.


Lauren
It's all the little things—the action plans, the long-kept promises—that started falling apart when my life slipped into controlled chaos.

After I met Matthew Walsh.

I couldn't decide whether I wanted to run screaming or rip his pants off, and most days I wanted a little of both. If I was being honest with myself, it was rip his pants off, ride him like a workhorse, and then run screaming.

Matthew
A rebellious streak ran through Lauren Halsted. It was fierce and unrelentingly beautiful, and woven through too many good girl layers to count, and she wasn't letting anyone tell her what to do.

Unless, of course, she was naked.

She wasn't looking for me and I sure as shit wasn't looking for her, but we found each other anyway and now we were locked in a battle of wills, waiting for the other to blink.

Sometimes the universe conspires to bring people together. Other times, it throws people down a flight of stairs and leaves them in a bruised and bloodied heap

 

review

 


3.5 Stars

Smart, sassy and bossy teacher Lauren has her sights set on one goal. To get her school off the ground. Being the daughter and sister to navy seals, it has been instilled in her to never give up. She's strong, independent and focused. Even a bit of a klutz. A lover of shoes and pretty underwear, Lauren is a girly girl underneath. Her sassiness who make you laugh. A hardheaded woman only seeing straight in front of her.

Matthew is an architect whose job is his passion. His way with number is cute in a that geeky way. Beyond smart and sexy to boot. Matthew has some rather caveman like tendencies that it times are annoying and others are sexy beyond belief. When a client stumbles into his arms, Matthew wants a little more than his work obsessed life.

Underneath It All was a surprise of a book for me. It's so much more than just a naughty teacher story. A story with emotions that are overwhelming and family. Being so ingrossed in something that the fear of doing anything else will put you off track. A story about making one's own family. A story about setting and achieving goals. With lots of passionate, wild and steamy romance to keep you turning the pages of this heartfelt story.

Review: Lock and Key by Cat Porter

Lock and Keyunnamed


Cat Porter
 The One-Eyed Jacks MC #1

ebook
Published June 23rd 2014 by Smashwords Edition

(first published June 20th 2014)

 



I suppose some of us have to get really dirty before we can become truly clean.I was allegedly South Dakota’s most famous old lady.
Sixteen years ago I survived my old man’s murder

Never again.
Never again will I surrender my heart.
Never again will I sacrifice to the Club.

But that all changed in one night.

I came home and crashed into him,
and my past and present blew up in my face.
Both of us lonely, running on empty, and unwilling to admit it.

Until now.
Now I feel things I’d forgotten about, want things I’d cut out of my insides.

Love not only stings when you lose it, when it’s ripped away from you.
When it first sinks its teeth in you, it can cut just as raw and sting just as deep.

I’d forgotten that.

Who holds the keys to betrayal? To suspicion? To trust?
To brotherhood? To family?
To redemption and a bleeding heart?
Right now, I just might.



review



4.5 Stars


It's no secret that I have developed a passion for biker romance. Something about the raw, gritty , and rough edges to these stories intrigue me to a point that I really cannot describe. Plowing through the pages of many stories that I have truly enjoyed, locking key by Cat Porter truly stands out to me.  Lock and Key contains everything that I want and enjoy in a biker romance. Hot alpha men, check. Craziness and chaos within a motorcycle club, check. Raw lusty passion, check. A seasoned, kick ass old lady who knows her shit, something new for me and bad ass.

Grace, a.k.a. Little Sister, is the text book definition of a good old lady. Loyalty to her old man and the club, she knew when to talk,
to shut up, went to stand up for herself, and when to back off. The club was her life. Until tragedy struck the most devastating way, taking her old man and so much more.  Grace walk away from not only her club but the life she knew. Almost 2 decades pass, another tragedy strikes. Grace is forced to return to her home for her sister. Returning home also means returning to the club. Grace learns that just because you walk away from the club does not mean you leave the club. Grace is considered the old lady of the old ladies. Loyalty and honor are bestowed upon her by all the men of the club. Grace is also reminded that when the club calls you answer.

Lock and Key is the story for all of us that wanted to truly know what it's like inside a seasoned old lady head. To be brought into a new world, completely change your way of living, see and do some crazy fucked up shit, and live through it. All the while having the most crazy and passionate experiences of your life. To have a story come to you through someone who is not new to the lifestyle, going into it fully knowing what to expect and still does it. I find it funny that it's always said that women are not part of the club. They're only used as the clubwhores,  to help out here and there, yes some have their old ladies but not part of the club. Lock and Key shows that women do you truly play a vital role within the club it's just behind the scenes and kept under Lock and Key.


This was one of those books for me, the more I read the more I wanted to read.  Almost entrancing.  Getting wrapped up within pages.  Yes, the Alpha Bikers of this book flippin' ROCK!  Miller A.K.A. Lock, made both me and Grace melt.  He's stunning, that's all I can say!!!  LOL!  However it not the men that will be making your turn the pages of this book.  Grace is one bad ass chick that I highly recommend that you get to know!

Blurb


As Reapers Motorcycle Club president, Reese “Picnic” Hayes has given his entire life to the club. After losing his wife, he knew he’d never love another woman. And with two daughters to raise and a club to manage, that was just fine with him. These days, Reese keeps his relationships free and easy—he definitely doesn’t want to waste his time on a glorified cleaning lady like London Armstrong. Too bad he’s completely obsessed with her.
Besides running her own business, London’s got her junkie cousin’s daughter to look after—a more reckless than average eighteen-year-old. Sure she’s attracted to the Reapers’ president, but she’s not stupid. Reese Hayes is a criminal and a thug. But when her young cousin gets caught up with a ruthless drug cartel, Reese might be the only man who can help her. Now London has to make the hardest decision of her life—how far will she go to save her family?

reaper's stand teasers

Excerpt:


I shuddered, and shook my head, burying my face in his shoulder as he started working my clit harder. My hips twisted over his, grinding his cock down hard as the tension built inside me.


“Ladies first,” he whispered, then used his hand on my ass to lift me just enough for him to shove three fingers down deep inside. Holy crap. I don’t know how he pulled it off logistically and I didn’t care. All that mattered was the way he filled me up and ground down on my clit at the same time. My heart was beating too fast and I felt dizzy with need and desire and pleasure that wound so tight I thought I might explode. Oh, God… please explode! Then it hit and I bit his shoulder so I wouldn’t scream, waves of ecstasy shattering me. My body went lump over his, and he pulled the hand that’d tortured me free. Then it was at my mouth, pushing inside until I tasted myself all over him as he gripped my jaw in a soft but firm hold.


“You ready to suck my cock?”


I nodded so fast it made me dizzy. Then I slithered down his body, ripping at his jeans and pulling his belt free. he lifted his hips to help me, his erection springing free to slap up against his belly. Id seen it before, of course, but never quite this close and personal. We hadn’t had a normal courtship, and I realized with a shock that we’d only had sex three times, total. Wow. Felt like so much more than that.


A little frission of excitement raced up my spine- there was so much more about him I couldn’t wait to learn. I giggled, giddy and he grinned down at me, wrapping his fingers tight into my hair.


“I feel like a kid when I’m with you.”


“I do, too,” I whispered back.

Review: An American Duchess by Sharron Page

20579284An American Duchess

Sharron Page
Paperback, 384 pages

Published September 30th 2014 by Harlequin HQN







It's 1922, and New York heiress Zoe Gifford longs for the freedoms promised by the Jazz Age. Headstrong and brazen, but bound by her father's will to marry before she can access his fortune, Zoe arranges for a brief marriage to Sebastian Hazelton, whose aristocratic British family sorely needs a benefactor.

Once in England, her foolproof plan to wed, inherit and divorce proves more complicated than Zoe had anticipated. Nigel Hazelton, Duke of Langford and Sebastian's older brother, is as austere and imposing as the family's ancestral estate. Still reeling from the Great War, Nigel is now staging a one-man battle against a rapidly changing world—and the outspoken Zoe represents everything he's fighting against.

When circumstances compel Zoe to marry Nigel rather than Sebastian, their heated quarrelling begets passion of another sort. But with Nigel unwilling to change with the times, will Zoe be forced to choose between her husband and her dreams?



review


3.5 Stars


Zoe, a new world heiress, is a girl ahead of her time.  She is not what you would call a proper girl. Her skirts are short, she can fly a plane and is willing to take on the world with her head held high. Zoe is a girl who can turn a world of black and white into color with just her presence.  Zoe has loose lips, is sassy and has a hard head. She knows what she wants, she's gonna go after it and the girl is going to get it. Having fun while she does it. She's a modern girl, and a modern world, during the 1920s.


Duty, honor and tradition are etched into who Nigel, the Duke of Langford is. Serving his country and crown by fighting in war, Nigel was left with both mentally and physically scars that go as deep as his soul. A man who wants thing to be as they have been, gets shaken to his core when a lively American throws the modern world into his life. Overwhelmed with emotions, the past, and what the future could be.  Sometimes a Duke has to do things that you would a Duke doesn't normally do.

A fun and feisty Romance set in the 1920s. Combining an old world England with the jazzy times of America.  Zoe and Nigel could not be more different, the banter of the two will make you smile and want to smack them both. A good story with a very Downton Abby feel with a lot more pizzazz and jazz.

Review-Delicate Ink by Carrie Ann Ryan

18584406Delicate Ink

Carrie Ann Ryan

Montgomery Ink Series, Book 1
ebook

Expected publication: October 14th 2014 by Fated Desires Publishing, LLC




On the wrong side of thirty, Austin Montgomery is ready to settle down. Unfortunately, his inked sleeves and scruffy beard isn’t the suave business appearance some women crave. Only finding a woman who can deal with his job, as a tattoo artist and owner of Montgomery Ink, his seven meddling siblings, and his own gruff attitude won’t be easy.
Finding a man is the last thing on Sierra Elder’s mind. A recent transplant to Denver, her focus is on opening her own boutique. Wanting to cover up scars that run deeper than her flesh, she finds in Austin a man that truly gets to her—in more ways than one.
Although wary, they embark on a slow, tempestuous burn of a relationship. When blasts from both their pasts intrude on their present, however, it will take more than a promise of what could be to keep them together.

When Carrie Ann Ryan told her readers about the Montgomery Ink series at RAW 2013, she more that caught my attention. Who would not want to read about tattooed hotties. I love the way Carrie Ann writes her families. I know going into reading Delicate Ink, this was going to hit me in the heart.Austin is co owner of Montgomery Ink and has hit a rut in life. The sexy, bearded tattoo artist is the eldest of the Montgomery children. A proud brother and son, family is a source of happiness for Austin. Being on the upper side of thirty Austin is really to settle down and live out life in love. Austin is covered in tattoos, has a beard that I want to run my fingers through and eyes i just want to get lost in. He’s a badass, brash and like Shep in Ink Inspired has a bad habit of say the crappest thing at just the wrong time and putting his foot in his mouth. Under the tats and attitude is the man will do his damnest to make your dreams come true.

Sierra is a braver woman that I know how to put into words. Suffering a past that would make the average person never want to walk the earth again. She pushes herself to fulfill her dream. Opening a boutique and making her life on her own. In taking a step to continue her healing, Sierra want a tattoo to cover ugly scars on her body to help move on from the past. A strong yet timid woman whose life changed just by walking into Montgomery Ink. Pretty, sweet and sassy Sierra will break your heart and make you love her all at the same time.

Carrie Ann Ryan never fails. A well written story filled passion and family. Both the lead and secondary characters shine through the pages. An emotional tale that made me laugh, shed a tear and want to smack one or two characters a few times. Ms. Ryan knows how to make her readers fall in love characters. Over and over again. Adding some kink with the ink, the is no lack of steam within these pages!

Delicate Ink is more that the story of Austin and Sierra. It’s an in depth look at what it is to be a Montgomery. A large family that is more than blood. Together through the good and the bad. A family that is more than willing to open their arms to gain another into the hold.  !
