Well, I went with Shane. Crazy? Yes. But it was the ride of a lifetime. The things we did on his private jet...my god.

It turned out, however, that I'd gotten myself into way more than I'd bargained for. I didn't even know he had a private jet, for starters. There's quite a lot I don't know about Shane Sorrenson, I discovered.

I find myself faced with yet another last-minute decision that will change my life all over again. In a world of turbulent change, the one constant that I can rely on is hot sex with Shane.

Review

As usual, this was a hot book. Nothing would stop Shane and Leo from getting close to each other - not mother nature, and most definitely not gunfire ;)

I stepped away from him, pulling out of his grip. He snarled possessively and reached for me.

This book is also when Shane's brothers were introduced. They were all so different, and of course, Shane was the best. He might not have had Luke's Hollywood looks, but he had all the sexual appeal he needed. Leo was lucky to be the receiver of that.

Leo, once again, made Shane proud. Not only did she hold herself gracefully during stressful times in the war zone, she also was not intimidated by Shane's brothers. As one of his brothers said, Leo had brass balls :)

     You're all jackasses. I'll say it, since all of you are being babies about it: Yes, Shane and I were having sex. Right there where you're sitting, actually, Luke.

     Luke made a face and scooted over nearer his brother.

     Shane laughed silently, his shoulders shaking. "Way to be, Leo. I think you just scarred Luke forever."

     Luke squirmed, stood up, and crossed to the other side of the room. "I didn't need to see that, didn't need to know that." He grinned at me, though.

     "None of my business," Rob said, still not looking at me. "You're both consenting adults. Shane can screw who he wants."

     "My only issue is the middle of a civil war might not be the best place for it," Jon said. "But then, it ain't me doing it. Sexual arousal is a natural reaction, thought. The body needs a way to purge the hormones released during the stress and adrenaline of a battle."

     "That's what Shane told me," I said. "We were just testing his theory."

     The Sorrenson brothers were all suppressing chuckles, trying to maintain their composure by not looking at anyone or anything. For some reason, this irritated me. Something told me if I wanted the respect of these men, I'd have to earn it.

     "So, Shane," I said, as casually as I could, "are you feeling purged? Or should we ask your brothers to step out for a few minutes?"

     Shane choked on his laughter, glancing at me in surprise, then at his brothers, who were all red-faced and shaking.

     "I think I could go for another purging," Shane said.

     "I ain't moving," Jon said, not opening his eyes. "But feel free. I won't interrupt."

This book is only $0.99 cents. Go get it and enjoy :D

Review: One Night in Santiago

Blurb:

Lily Stanton's vacation goes from bad to worse when a storm strands her in a foreign country, arguing with an arrogant—and very sexy—stranger over the last available hotel room.

Successful CEO Bruno Komarov wasn't expecting the gorgeous woman checking in at the reception desk to challenge him over a room. Even more surprising, he actually enjoys their exchange.

But when Lily proposes a compromise—she'll take the bed and he can sleep on the couch—Bruno pushes his attraction aside and assures himself that this can remain strictly business. After all, they're both adults capable of keeping their hands to themselves. They'll share the room, get a good night's sleep, and be off to their respective destinations in the morning.

What could possibly happen in just one night?

Review

Romantic and heartwarming!!!

I am in love with this story! The attraction was undeniable. However, Bruno's self-control was unbelievable. If it wasn't for Lily's advance, Bruno probably would have tamped down his desire and respected her space. Oh my, what a wonderful man he was!

Lily had had a terrible week, maybe even terrible few years. She was successful in her own right, she had confidence, yet she also was secretly insecure. She was ridden with guilt about everything in her life. One of my favorite scenes was after she talked to her sister. Bruno's response to her was absolutely touching. Really, if every woman could find a man like that, all will be right in the world.

Bruno was such a dream...

Not only his manners and his personality, but also behind closed doors. Oh my. What a sexy man he was. Basically, you all have to read this book. Otherwise, it's like missing out on a vital part of life. Why would you want to miss such a thing?

From the Betting Book at Brook's Gentleman's Club:
Wager: £2,000 that Lord Ellis will throw the first punch when he discovers Lord Throne is wooing a certain duke's sister.

All Bets Are Off When the Game is Love

Lady Gabrielle is thrilled when Anthony Keaton, earl of Ellis, asks for her hand in marriage. She's not so pleased when he then leaves the country and four months pass without a word. Clearly, the scoundrel has changed his mind and is too cowardly to tell her. There's nothing to do but go back on the marriage mart...

When Anthony returns to town and finds his ultimate rival has set sights on Gabby, his continual battle of one-upmanship with Sebastian Thorne ceases to be a game. Anthony is determined to win back the woman who holds his heart--but he's not expecting Gabby herself to up the stakes...

Review

Infuriatingly wonderful story!

This book was literally infuriating at some point. Lady Gabrielle was hell bent on punishing herself because she thought she deserved to forgo happiness in exchange for her duty to her family. There were multiple instances when I wanted to strangle her and knock some sense into her. I was just glad when Lord Ellis finally came to his senses, thanks to the lady's caring sisters.

I immensely enjoyed the humor of this book! There were many times when the characters would argue as if they were children! They were absolutely wonderful! These were the moments I truly cherished and they helped me forgive Lady Gabrielle for such ridiculous thoughts that went through her head.

Anthony: "You know nothing, you little fool."

Gabby: "A fool? You call me a fool and I am supposed to believe you love me."

Anthony: "I didn't mean to call you a fool. But not realizing I needed to keep my distance to remain a gentleman makes you seem kind of foolish."

Gabby: "And you seem kind of like an overbearing jackanapes who has no sense of how to woo a lady. Fool, indeed. I would have to be one to marry you."

Anthony: "What are you saying?"

Gabby: "I've changed my mind. See yourself out."

Anthony: "Well change it back."

Gabby: "Change what back? My mind?"

I also enjoyed the fact that Lord Ellis was essentially a part of Lady Gabrielle's family. Her brothers were like brothers to him, as was with her mother being a motherly figure to him. Not only did they have such camaraderie among each other, they also fought like family!

Anthony scrambled to pin him to the floor, but Drew threw a hand up to block him and jabbed Anthony's eye.

Anthony: "Goddamn your boney fingers!" He rocked back on his heels, covering his left eye.

Drew was propped on his elbows, frozen in place. The absurdity of their situation must have hit them at the same time, although their reactions differed. The fight drained from Anthony while dimples pierced his friend's cheeks.

Drew: "Boney fingers?"

Anthony: "They are like bloody daggers."

The secrets and omission of truth also got on my nerves. None of the crazy situation would have happened if Lord Ellis and Lady Gabrielle were just honest with everyone, least of all with each other. Gosh, the ways of society back then drove me crazy!

Anyway, this was a great book. As much as Lord Ellis drove Lady Gabrielle mad, they were good together. And just as this book drove me mad, I also enjoyed it very much :)

Blurb:

The night I met Shane Sorrenson started off as the worst one of my life. I had just broken up with my fiance, John, after a huge fight. I decided I would rather walk home in the rain than drive with him another minute. Then Shane pulled up next to me on his Harley. He was huge, sexy and dangerous. Everything I'd never even dared fantasize about. I should have made him take me to a hotel, or a friend's house, or anywhere. Instead, I let him take me to his condo where he turned the worst night of my life into the most erotic, sensual experience I never would have imagined in my wildest dreams.

Review

This book was so yummy!

Shane was judged by his appearance. I would probably be guilty of doing the same thing. However, the way he reacted and the way he proved Leo wrong was definitely something to be desired by any woman. I had the utmost respect for Shane when he revealed what he did for a living, and when he exercised honor instead of pouncing on Leo and taking liberties with her in the beginning. I admired that most about him, besides his other "skills" ;)

"You're gonna get sick, ma'am. Why don't you let me take you somewhere. I'll behave, I promise. I'll just drop you off, and that's it. I won't even ask for your number."

He was such a tender heart that his appearance really was off the mark. However, he was the perfect package in my opinion. Sexy and dangerous on the outside, and soft and tender on the inside. He's like a piece of yummy Lindt truffles! ;)

     "I hurt you, didn't I?" He seemed frightened of the thought, abjectly sorrowful. "I did. You're crying."

     I shook my head and forced breath into my lungs, shoved the tears away.

     "No, no. Shane..." I rolled over to flop onto his chest, and his arm wrapped me into him.            "I'm crying because I've never...because you...just rocked my world until I couldn't see straight."

     "Is that a good thing?" He was searching my eyes, still looking worried.

     "Oh, god, yes. Hell, yes." I couldn't figure out how to make him understand what I'd just experienced. "You've ruined me, you know."

     "What?" He looked panicked. "I used a condom! It's still on, I swear!"

     I laughed, realizing how that had sounded. "No, I just meant you've ruined me for all other men. It's impossible for anyone to ever do that to me again."

     Shane sighed in relief. "Shit, you scared me."

This series is definitely a must-read! It has humor, sexy biker, and... what else can you ask for?!

HOW TO CHOOSE A COWBOY by New York Times Bestselling Author Daire St. Denis
When Tessa Savage is forced to choose between two hunky cowboys while vacationing at the Lazy L Dude Ranch, she finds herself at a loss; the Marlboro Man look-a-like or the fun-loving exhibitionist. Help Tessa decide in this smokin' hot interactive tale.
REVIEW: Tessa Savage is one sexy woman! She's not one for a monogamous relationship. Her friend called her "pansexual" which apparently meant she cared not whether the partner was man or woman. Well that made for fun times, didn't it?

Choosing between two cowboys must have been crazy difficult. I absolutely enjoyed the interactive aspect of the story. It allowed for an alternate twist to the story, but both stories were just as steamy. Wade was brooding and very serious, while Connor was carefree and flirtatious. The contrast in both men made for even hotter encounters! The twist of the story was even better ;) Definitely a must-read...and then read all the other Tessa Savage stories :)

     Wade and I don't speak as we follow a few stragglers in the direction of the lodge and then turn down a path toward my cabin. When we got to my door, I pause before fitting my key in the lock. "Would you like to come in? There's still wine..." My words trail off because I'm thinking about what Connor said about Wade not getting close to guests.
      Wade watches me with this stony expression and I have no idea what he's thinking, whether he's going to say yes or no.
     "Or not," I say. "I know you have an early morning tomorrow."
     "No. I'd like to come in. But..." It's his turn to not finish his sentence. He glances over his shoulder. Like he's looking for someone.
     "But what?"
     "I don't want to seem presumptuous."
     "Presumptuous?"
     He leans against the doorframe, watching me with that brooding stare. "I'm attracted to you Tessa. I'm not going to lie."
     "Okay."
     "If I come inside..." his words trail off again as his eyes focus on my lips. They move lower to the front of my dress.
     "I'd like you to come in," I whisper.
     "Are you sure?"
     I nod. Enthusiastically.

THE VAMPIRE DESIGN by New York Times Bestselling Author Vivi Anna
A naive young artist travels through Europe searching for the most infamous painter ever to live... who also happens to be a 300 year old vampire.
REVIEW: This story was interesting and mysterious. Obviously we know there is a vampire in the story. I love that he was a painter. I love it when vampires are able to capitalize on their talents the older they become. The experience of the young artist was like going back in time. I enjoyed reading about the "castle" that the vampire painter lived in and how it resembled the 1800s. I love medieval architecture! The author did a good job painting a picture in my head ;) (pun intended). It was a brief story but it was a story that promised more, and I wished it had a sequel...

ANYTHING HE WANTS: ATONEMENT by New York Times Bestselling Author Sara Fawkes
Jeremiah and Lucy have been through the fire and barely escaped with their lives, but can their love survive the real world?
REVIEW: I didn't know what to expect from this story, but the introduction to the story sure was STEAMY! I absolutely enjoyed the beginning :) However, beyond the sex, this story had depth. I was able to get to know both characters through Lucy's perspective. The surprise towards the end of the story was also such a heartwarming twist. I loved the passion that the characters had for each other, and that they genuinely cared. I especially enjoyed when Jeremiah defended Lucy in front of his mother. That was sexy ;)

"If I ever hear you bad-mouth Lucy in my presence again, I will make it clear to the world that any friends of yours are not friends of mine. I will cut you off, mother, as surely as Rufus ever did."

"This lunch was meant to be just for Lucy and I. I do not remember inviting you. I'll make certain to tell the host as much when I make reservations from now on."

Overall, this boxed-set anthology was a work of art! It will get you hot and bothered for sure!
