Synopsis


It all started with a simple phrase.

Love Sucks

The moment Vanessa Hilliard walked into the tattoo shop uttering those two words was the day my life began its downward spiral.

Or maybe it’s the day my life began.

My name is Rex Grayson.

And this is my story.

***

The day I met Rex Grayson, I got a hell of a lot more than I bargained for. He sparked something inside of me -- possibility. A word that never existed in my world before. He caused me to question who I was and made me want things I never dreamed were possible.

We’ve both got a mountain of shit in our past.

My name is Vanessa Hilliard. I have an affinity for the unusual and seriously twisted.

He thinks this is his story.

But it’s really mine.

**This is a full-length Adult Contemporary Romance that contains mature sexual content and language and is not intended for readers under the age of 18.**
 
 

Darra's Review:

If you were not aware, I am a big fan of Beth Michele's. She has brought Bad Boy to the next level. An unlikely pair of people come together and compliment, or complicate, maybe both. Rex has a rough life. Vanessa ends up in a mess with her new found brother. A very unpredictable storyline and makes you excited to read a follow up story about the brother. Just too much of his story is missing. And despite all the bad things these guys do, you still like them. I will not lie, this is book is not my favorite from Beth, but it was a new story. Different and incomprehensible. Raw. I have loved Beth's books and of course my expectations are way beyond normal. So you should still read the book. I think that it is worth your time.
 
I rate the book a 4.3

Excerpt

 
I subtly open my legs, hoping he might take the hint and move his hand where I really need it. Instead, he continues to drive me crazy with his calloused finger circling just above my knee. His warm breath fans my neck, and I bite back the noise that wants to escape when his tongue makes contact with that sensitive spot behind my ear. “You taste so good,” he murmurs, “and I bet you’re already wet for me.” “Beyond wet,” I whisper back, not wanting the taxi driver to hear and think that I’m a sex-crazed freak, even though I feel like one. Rex inhales a jagged breath, his hand finally wandering higher up my thigh. “I can’t wait until my tongue can find out just how much,” he says quietly. And when I glance up at him, his eyes denote a hunger that lights a flame inside of me. One that’s been buried for quite some time. I press my lips together, staring out the window in an attempt to distract myself. My skin tingles with anticipation as I try to rein in my breathing that is currently out of control. But I don’t have to wait too long. Within minutes, the taxi pulls up in front of his building. Rex pays the driver and practically jerks me from the seat, latching onto my hand as we fly into the building like two sex-starved lunatics. He hesitates the moment we enter the glass door, glancing up at the flight of stairs then back to me. With a devious grin, he scoops me up under my knees and I let out a yelp of surprise. “Ahh! What on earth are you doing, Rex?” I laugh, my head dropping back. He continues striding up the stairs with purpose. “What does it look like I’m doing?” “Why are you carrying me? I can walk, you know.” “Blondie, shut up and kiss me,” he demands. “I need motivation for climbing.”

Darra's Review:

Many of the books we review would be categorized as romance/ Adult. However The Cutting went well beyond the usual plot. The book goes into very detailed information that is a must when reading this plot. If you skim through the book, you will miss an important clue that enabled McCabe get to the bottom of who committed this horrific murder.
James' book builds up so that I, the reader, is craving more. I was enthralled to the very end of the book. I actually was so involved in reading, I felt nervous about what was to happen next. That there explains how great the book was.

I would rate the book a 4.5. If you are looking for a great thriller/mystery, this is the book.

What I think about Colton from the Driven Trilogy

 
 
 
 
So I saw there was a poll and I saw this series on it many times. Looked it up on Amazon and it got raving reviews! So made a list of books I have to read. The list is maybe 50 books deep.
 
Anyways, off subject. Best word to describe: WOW! Colton is unbelievable. I HAD to write about him. He is the one night stand you dream of. I can't stop reading this series. I am on Fueled right now. Will be reading Crashed the moment Fueled ends.
 
I try not to curse on our blog, but holy fucking shit. I want to start up smoking after those sex scenes. He is amazing. Story is great and am super excited to read more.
 
I had to put this up because every woman gets to stare at Stuart Reardon. Really, I can't ask for more! Yummy!

Sharing You by Molly McAdams!!!




Synopsis:

Twenty-three year old, Kamryn Cunningham has left all she’s ever known and moved to a small town where no one knows her name, who her parents are, or her social status in the horseracing world. Months after opening her own bakery and evading attempts of being set up by her new best friend, she meets Brody. Kamryn fights the instant pull between them because there’s a detail she can’t dismiss. Brody’s married.

To say that twenty-six year old, Brody Saco has had a rough marriage would be an understatement. After marrying his pregnant girlfriend, he spends the next six years in a relationship filled with hatred, manipulation and guilt involving a tragedy that happened five years earlier. When he keeps running into his sister-in-law’s best friend, Kamryn, he can’t ignore that she makes him feel more with just one look than his wife ever has; and soon he can’t continue fight his feelings for her.

When staying apart proves to be too difficult, Brody and Kamryn enter a relationship full of stolen moments and nights that end too soon while they wait for Brody to file for divorce. But the guilt that comes with their relationship may prove to be too much for Kamryn, and Brody might not be strong enough to face the tragedy from his past in order to leave his conniving wife.

Sunny's Review:

I love Molly McAdams and her writing. She has a way of sucking you into a book until you finish not realizing that it's been hours. Sharing You held my attention just like all of Molly's books but I personally do not like books that have cheating. Don't get me wrong...Brody's wife is a horrible person and you kind of like that he's doing this to her. Kamryn is annoying. I can't lie I don't like her. She is not a bad person in any way but I wanted to shake her the whole time and tell her to be stronger! She does leave her life behind and start over creating her own business but when it came to Brody I felt like she was super weak. Brody is the same way. He is awesome in that he is doing what he thinks he needs to do but then Kam comes along and he just takes forever before he gets stron enough to handle the situation.

I am giving this book 4 stars out of 5. If you like Molly's books and can get past the "he is married!!" part I think you will love this one.

About Molly:

Molly grew up in California but now lives in the oh-so-amazing state of Texas with her husband and furry four-legged daughters. When she's not diving into the world of her characters, some of her hobbies include hiking, snowboarding, traveling, and long walks on the beach … which roughly translates to being a homebody with her hubby and dishing out movie quotes. She has a weakness for crude-humored movies, fried pickles and loves curling up in a fluffy comforter during a thunderstorm ... or under one in a bathtub if there are tornados. That way she can pretend they aren't really happening.

Shooting Star by Arianne Richmonde!!!

Shooting-Star
Book Title: Shooting Star Author: Arianne Richmonde Genre: New Adult (Novella) Release Date: July 10,2014 Hosted by: Book Enthusiast Promotions
Synopsis

Meet two dysfunctional products of Hollywood. Star Davis and Jake Wild: they’ve met their match. 19-year-old, Oscar winning Star Davis is an A-list movie star. Hell-raisingly beautiful, she tosses men aside like used Kleenex. She commands 20 million per movie—or at least did until drugs, alcohol, wild partying, and a police arrest sent her kicking and screaming into rehab. Now she’s out, squeaky clean, and determined to win the role she was born to play: the lead in Skye’s The Limit—ready to re-conquer Hollywood. 26-year-old British director Jake Wild lives up to his name: he’s the wildest player in town. He’s also Hollywood royalty. From a family dynasty of powerful directors and producers, Jake’s home is a movie set. With reams of hot starlets at his beck and call, Jake can get any woman he wants. But with his new movie, Skye’s The Limit in pre-production, he’s decided it’s time to get serious and change his philandering ways. Star is “liability on legs” and Jake doesn’t want her near his precious movie. But Star has wily ways of getting what she wants. And apart from the role of Skye, what she wants is Jake right where he belongs: Under her thumb. Lights, camera, action . . . But the action is not what Jake expected. New Adult Contemporary romance 17+






I really liked this book. Arianne definitely knows how to grab you from the beginning. I wasn't sure if I was going to like Star but then I thought at least she is trying to turn her life around. Jake is awesome. I love him. This book is funny & a quick read. I can't wait for the next book!! 

Seriously, go get this book. I am giving this book 4.2 stars out of 5.

excerpt

JAKE: “YOUR”E NOT SERIOUS?” I asked, my jaw on the floor. “You’re joking?” Brian carried on calmly chewing gum, the cloying aroma of Juicy Fruit wafting about his Porsche like air freshener. He sank deeper into his seat, his large body oozing with self-satisfied confidence, or what I suspected to be a little fart—although it could have been the new leather of the seat squeaking. “Jake,” he said, “you’ll thank me for this later.” “They won’t be a ‘later,’ ” I shot back, my voice rising. “Because there’s no fucking way I’m having that . . . that . . . liability on legs in my movie!” “She’s fresh out of rehab. She’s turned the page.” “Yeah, for how long? Twenty-four hours? My leading lady needs to give the performance of a lifetime in Skye’s The Limit, not be snorting charlie in her dressing room. This is not some brainless blockbuster, Brian, this is art!” “There’s nothing more artistic than the creation of money, Jake. She’s box office. Now, more than ever. You know how much airtime she gets? How many times a day she graces the news, or her photo’s in some magazine?” “Yeah, but for all the wrong reasons. My answer is no. Enne. Oh. No.” Brian picked the gum out from his rubbery lips his and stuck it in a Kleenex. He smirked and said nothing. Then crunched the tissue in his fist like a boxer preparing for a punch. His jaw tightened. Little veins popped in his forehead like blue tributaries of a river. “You’ll work with her,” he said solemnly, the smirk now edging into a Robert de Niro sneer; the sneer Bob’s bad characters don when they’re about to do something crazy. “Why? Why are you so obsessed with putting her in my film? There are other A-list actresses who would kill for the role of Skye. Why Star fucking Davis?” “She’s hot. She’s beautiful.” “She’ll come to the set drunk, high on pills, her entourage trailing behind her like slimy snails leaving behind a residue of—” “It’s done,” Brian said, cutting me off. “She’s signed. We’ve signed."

The Girl in 6E by A.R. Torre & Giveaway

The Girl in 6E blog Tour Banner
 
 
Synopsis
My life, inside this apartment is simple. It works, as long as I follow the rules. 1. Don't leave the apartment. Not in case of fire, not to mail a letter, not to run an errand. The door stays shut, and I stay inside. 2. Don't get attached to clients. I take off my clothes, I stand in front of the camera, and I perform. What they want, I give. Their secrets, I keep. Everything I tell them, is a lie. 3. Don't kill anyone. I've obeyed that rule for over three years. My life, inside this apartment was simple, and it worked. Then, I started breaking rules. Enter a world of lies, thrills, fears, and all desires, in this original thriller from A. R. Torre. Warning: This book contains explicit sexual references, and should not be read by anyone under the age of 18.

Darra's Review:

Well, I have to say. "Jessica" needs some meds quickly! This girl has issues I have never read before and would be scared to death to meet her. It is a terrible thing that happened to her when she was younger and this may be the cause of all the dreadful things she wants to do. And her job, I am completely out of the loop. I did not realize they did the virtual "meetings". Duh on my part. However I did not know you can buy everything on Amazon! Which she does.
She has the most interesting main character I have read in sometime. Torre writes with as much detail about each part of the characters, life stories and the plot which is forming during the book. That makes the story unique. I need the details of each character's point of view. It is what makes a book stand out from the rest.

I would rate the book a 4.4.


excerpt
Undressing is an everyday occurrence. Most women do it mindlessly, automatic motions that accomplish an end result. But, if done correctly, stripping can be the ultimate foreplay, a sexual seduction that can wipe clear any rational thoughts and leave a man totally and utterly at your mercy. I have mastered the art. I kneel on the bed and trail my fingers over my skin. Light, teasing caresses designed to heighten my senses and stimulate my body. I exhale slow, trembling breaths as my hands travel near sensitive areas, the dip in my neckline, the lace over my breasts. I keep my eyes down, subservient to him, and wait for the command. One always comes. “Take off your top. Slowly.” The voice was foreign, English words dipped in culture and dialect. I comply, lifting my eyes and biting my bottom lip gently, my tongue quickly darting out, and hear his gasp in response. I run my hands down my neck, grazing the top of my collarbone and dipping under the silk of my negligee. I slide down one strap, then two, the silk bunching over my breasts, the fabric clinging to my nipples. Then I rise to my knees, crossing my arms, sliding the fabric higher, letting it reveal inch by slow inch of skin until it unveils the curve of breasts, dip of throat, and the pout of pink lips. “Good.” He groaned. “Very good. I like you, Jessica.” Jessica. Not my real name. He thought he knew me. They all thought they knew me. After all, they’ve seen my Facebook page, seen the Photoshopped photos that construct my manufactured life. They believe what they see, because they want to believe. Like I want to believe. I turn to the wall and stand, dragging my expensive thong down over my toned hips, bending over and exposing my most private area to his hungry eyes. The embroidered lace slides the rest of the way down my legs and drops around my ankles, snagging on the Italian stilettos that encase perfectly pedicured feet. I am naked now, and slide down to lay on my side in front of him, propped up on one elbow, his eyes hungrily feasting on my body. The lights, bright and hot, illuminate my bare skin, causing it to glow. He speaks, the arousal present in his voice, in the slight thickening of his accent. “Touch yourself. Just your fingers. I want to see you come.” He wants my fingers, a seductive performance of gasps, moans, and slick foreplay. Eventually, fingers won’t be enough. The next visit he’ll want more, something bigger, deeper - my moans to be louder, my orgasm stronger. There will be no secrets anymore, no boundaries, no requests he won’t be comfortable giving. At this moment, I am his, to do with as he pleased. And right now, he wants fingers.
