Review of Deep Control by Annabel Joseph

*** ARC Provided for Honest Review ****

Intense! This is the first time that I really have a hard time describing how and why I like a book. I have never read anything by Annabel before, but I have read some BDSM books before. And I have thoroughly enjoyed them. But this one totally took me out of my comfort zone. At the same time it kept me coming back for more. I feel like Annabel became by book drug dealer with this one. The sex scenes would start out super hot, then cross a line (for me) that would make me wonder if I wanted to keep going, but of course I did.

I fell so in love with the characters Devin and Ella. Ella is the funny, crazy smart astrophysicist. Devin an incredible hot, alpha, rich pilot. They are both so anti-relationship that watching them each push and pull each other is what kept me so invested. I can’t get over how much I loved these characters, while at the same time completely not understanding their kink.

Again, I loved this book because of the characters. At the same time, this BDSM is so not my cup of tea. It goes further than I want to explore. So word of caution, this one totally pushes boundaries, yet the writing is stellar, the characters are amazing, and sex is hot (up to a point for me). Make sure you can take what this book is offering before diving in.-Review by Teri(Jane)

Excerpt:

He shook his head and walked away, going for his clothes, dressing for a flight he’d take later, a flight I wouldn’t be on. He must understand that. I could never get on another plane, or a boat, or anything that would take me over the vast, unforgiving ocean that lapped this island’s shore.
Tears welled in my eyes as I stepped into my panties and then pulled a pair of jeans over my sore butt. I rummaged for a fresh t-shirt, and came up with one that said Astrophysicists Do It With Large Objects, a going-away gift from my Via Sofferenza friends. I shoved that back under the pile and chose a plain, faded blue one.
“Do you mind going to your own room now?” I said. “I need to do some work.”
“Yes, I fucking mind.”
His sharp reply took me aback. “Are you angry with me?”
“Angry? No. Confused. A little annoyed with the way you run hot and cold.” He glanced down at his shirt, also a faded blue tee. We looked like twins. He snorted and poked the air between us. “We’ve had sex twice now. I’ve fucked every one of your holes, twice without protection. I saved your life, and you don’t trust me?”
“I trust you. I don’t trust airplanes!”
“I’m telling you, they’re safe. Air travel is the safest form of transportation, safer even than walking. What happened yesterday was a once-in-a-lifetime thing.”
“Why does this matter so much to you?” I raised my voice, cutting him off. “If you want to get on a plane and fly to New York, then do it. That’s fine, I won’t stop you, but I’m not going. I’m staying here.”
Even as I said it, I knew I sounded ridiculous. I couldn’t stay in the Azores forever, only because I was afraid to fly.
“You’re going with me,” he said, yelling across the gap between us. After all we’d done together, all the ways he’d groped me, we couldn’t seem to touch each other in our matching shirts. “I said I’d get you to New York, and I’m going to get you to New York.”
“You don’t need to get me to New York,” I said. “I’m thirty years old. I have a doctorate in astrophysics and cosmology. I’m a grown-up person and I’ll be fine.”
“Grown-up people fly on airplanes,” he snapped.
I took a step back, trying to understand why he made me feel so harried, so scattered. It wasn’t only my fear of flying, and that he was a pilot. It was fear of him, fear of his skill at taking over my body. As we stood there, glaring at each other, I imagined gravitational waves crashing between us, red and angry and jagged. I could lose myself in him, in this man whose career was based on my deepest phobia…

Reviews for Signed by Marni Mann

Five stars
*** ARC Provided for Honest Review ***
Boy sees pretty girl. Girl sees a hot man after breaking up with her “boy” of a boyfriend. Sparks fly even though there is a large age gap. Too bad girl is a famous actress and right when things start to get beyond the physical between the two, girl has a sex video released of her and everyone drops out of her life trying to get away from the backlash.
This book is amazing! I loved the dynamic between James, the young hot actress, and Brett the man that can’t seem to resist this girl that he should be able to stay away from. This is the type of book you devour. I couldn’t put it down. I absolutely loved the play between James and Brett and you will too. Definitely check this one out!-Review by Teri(Jane)
****ARC Received for Honest Review****

This was my first Marni Mann book and I am now so engrossed in everything Marni Mann. What a contemporary romance weaver she is??? The story of the young and beautiful actress James and the dynamic pull of Brett who is there to save her, career and in life. The chemistry that is boiling is intoxicating and I loved every minute of it. This was a journey of two people not set on the path they started but burning into each other along the way.-Review by Catherine(Catty)

Review of Midnight Blue by L.J. Shen

Review of Midnight Blue by L.J. Shen
 
*** ARC Provided for Honest Review ***
 
This one is worth so much more than FIVE stars!
 
I can’t believe how much L.J. Shen completely gets me! There is nothing better (for me) than two people who don’t have that insta-love, but instead there is no attraction whatsoever. That’s what happens in Midnight Blue. Alex sees Indie, his “sobriety babysitter” and find absolutely nothing attractive about her. She is so far from his type. Of course Indie knows who Alex is; he’s a rock star for goodness sake. She even listens to his music. Although he’s hot, in that rock star type of way, he is also a recovering drug addict, he’s rude, he’s unapologetic, and he wants nothing more than for Indie to go away. That is until his bandmate shows some interest. Then, Alex wants nothing more than to mess with him and take away whatever he may want. And Alex makes this no secret.
 
This book is my everything. Affection that develops over time, that develops not just because of some instant attraction, but because of getting to truly know someone and seeing every day how incredible that other person is. Of course, there are some curve balls and obstacles they have to overcome…well more that a few. But you cannot miss Midnight Blue! L. J. Shen is easily one of my top author crushes!-Review by Teri(Jane)
 
****ARC Received for Honest Review****
 
This is beyond a 5 STAR READ!!!!
 
My Bestie, my partner in blogging crime, has raved about L.J. Shen for months, and I have yet to pick up a single book, rather it be digital or paperback. I even brought a signed copy of a book from Vegas for the bestie by L.J. and didn’t sneak a read in. But, man…I was really missing out and for once I will say, the bestie was right. This broad L.J. can write her ass off and I bow at her feet. I was completely engulfed in this story and if this is any indication of way previous books were like, I needed to get my one-click on…(which I totally did BTW, one-clicked 3 books and they are itching to be read). I am now engaged in an epic book hangover and having a hard time reading my next ARC that is on deck…thank you L.J. and bestie, I am a convert.-Review by Catherine(Catty)

Cover Reveal of Feels Like Home by Jennifer Van Wyk

SBPR_CR_BANNER.jpg

Feels Like Home, an all-new emotional standalone from Jennifer Van Wyk is coming February 5th!

FLHome_print_web.jpg

Title: Feels Like Home

Author: Jennifer Van Wyk

Publishing Date: February 5th

Designer is Jena Brignola

Photographer: By The Free Photography

Andy Simpson never expected to be raising his teenage twin sons alone.

Then again, he also never expected to walk into his house and see his wife with another man. In their bed. Or that it wasn’t her first time.

Bitterness threatened to wrap around his heart, darkening every part of his life.

But a brightness he wasn’t even looking for entered their lives and wouldn’t let it take hold.

Christine Jameson knew all about being a single parent. But she was holding a secret. A secret she wasn’t willing to allow anyone to find out. One she’d held tight for years.

But one look at Andy, and she knew that she needed to be honest with him. That he deserved to know he wasn’t alone.

They both needed friendship. Needed someone who understood, who had compassion without judgement.

What they didn’t imagine was for it to become something more.

That they would come to share something they never thought they would experience again.

They didn’t expect for it to… Feel Like Home.

About Jennifer:

From the Ground Up was Jennifer’s first published novel and now that she was bitten by the writing bug, has no intention of ever stopping. Jennifer makes her home in small town Iowa with her high school sweetheart, three beautiful, hilarious and amazing kids, one crazy Jack Russell terrier. This is where her love for all things reading, baking, and cooking happen. Jennifer’s family enjoys camping, boating, and spending time outside as much as possible. You’ll be her best friend if you can make her laugh and follow up with asking her what to read next. When she’s not writing, you can find her cheering the loudest at her kids’ sporting events (read as: embarrassing them), sipping coffee or iced tea out of a mason jar with her Kindle in her lap or binging on Netflix.

Couple moments in the bedroom. Domestic life home

BLURB:

Ready for another round?
Ava Grace Landy’s music career is humming along until a shakeup at her label jeopardizes her recording contract and curses her with the world’s worst boss. Determined to satisfy him, she partners with Trinity Distillery to access a larger male audience. To her surprise, she’s the one who’s satisfied—by none other than Jonah Beck, the gorgeous, yet gruff man behind the bourbon.
No doubt about it, bourbon runs in Beck’s blood. But it’s audacious Ava Grace who makes it run hot. When she signs on as the spokesperson for his craft distillery, he doesn’t plan on hoisting her onto an oak barrel and rocking the rickhouse. Though he’s convinced their lives don’t mix—like a terrible cocktail—he can’t keep his hands off the alluring country star.
Ava Grace and Beck try to keep their intoxicating relationship private, but the glare of her fame is too bright, revealing secrets they both want to remain hidden. With a spotlight shining on his tumultuous past, their future is at risk. Now they must decide if being together is worth sacrificing the career she loves and the company he’s poured his heart and soul into.

Midnight Blue, an all-new sexy standalone from LJ Shen is available NOW!

LJSMidnightBlueBookCover6x9_BW_324

Midnight Blue

Author: LJ Shen

Release Date: January 18th

It should have been easy.

I needed the money. He needed a babysitter to keep him from snorting himself to death.

I was cherry-picked especially for him. Responsible. Optimistic. Warm. Innocent.

The worst part is that I should have known better.

Alex Winslow. British rock star. Serial heartbreaker. Casanova with whiskey eyes.

“Don’t get near the devil in a leather jacket. He’ll chew you up and spit you out.”

Sounds familiar? That’s because it was a headline in a tabloid the second time he got arrested.

Guess what? I didn’t listen.

I signed the contract.

World tour. Three months. Four Continents. One hundred shows.

My name is Indigo Bellamy, and I sold my soul to a tattooed god.

Problem was, my soul wasn’t enough for Alex Winslow. He ended up taking my body, too.

Then he took my heart.

Then he took my all.

Excerpt:

Nat’s words came back and haunted me like a bad haircut from the eighties. An irrational need to check the goods took over me. It wasn’t like he minded. According to the rumors, his dick had seen more cameras than Kendall Jenner. Slowly—so painfully slowly—my eyes drifted down his sinewy body. I just wanted to see what all the fuss was about. Whatever I had in mind, though, didn’t come close to the real thing. Thick, long but not atrocious. With thin veins running through its length.
“Nice view?” he groaned, tucking his junk back into his briefs. His profile was glorious. Strong jaw, pouty lips, eyes like sex…
My eyes snapped up when I realized he was talking to me. “I wasn’t…”
“Looking? Yes, you were. Next time take a picture. It lasts longer.” He rolled his zipper upward and flushed the toilet with the toe of his boot. He turned around and squirted soap into his palm, washing his hands almost violently—rubbing between each finger and scratching his knuckles like he wanted to shed his own skin. When he was done, he looked around for a towel.
I cleared my throat, scrambling to regain my wits. “Longer than the glimpse or longer than your performance?”
Casually—so unbearably casually—he wiped his wet hands over my purple dress. I gasped, moving sideways. It looked like he was about to open the door and get out, but before I had the chance to yell at him for using me as a human towel, he slammed me against the wall, bracing both his arms above my head and pinning me to my spot. I let out a shriek of surprise at the sudden proximity.
Alex Winslow is touching me. Willingly, my surprisingly pitiful brain squealed.
Heat rolled off his body, making my back arch and my breath catch in my throat.
“Let’s make one thing clear—I could fuck you to a point of numbness without even breaking a sweat if I wanted to. Now, careful, New Girl. If you don’t keep your distance from me, I think I just might.”

Cover Reveal for Whiskey Lullaby by Stevie J. Cole

Whiskey Lullaby, an all new sexy and emotional standalone by Stevie J. Cole is coming March 5, 2018!

Cover Design by Michele Catalano

 

Synopsis

 

We all have guilty pleasures.

Mine was the boy my father took in. The guy everyone said I was too good for. The one I knew would ruin me.

But I couldn’t help it. The way Noah Greyson’s voice sounded when he sang whiskey lullabies to me in the dark; how perfect his arms felt wrapped around my stomach, his nose nuzzled in my hair- that’s what made me fall. That intimacy was what made me so very weak. But now millions of women drift off to sleep while Noah sings the love story we wrote, and it was never meant for the world.

The worst mistake I made wasn’t loving him, it was thinking he loved me, too.

At least, that’s what I thought until now…
