Review

What a ride! There were lots of topics and incidents covered in this debut from M.A. Stone. This is a coming of age story about Bleu Drawn. She is loyal, cute, and feisty. She seems to be struggling to find her place in the world after finding her fiance in a compromising position. She travels back home to find life a little different, and a little hard to get used to. She seems to struggle with her instincts and her desires. Her inner turmoil regarding her incarcerated father, her deceased mother, her long since gone older brother, and her twin brother seem almost too much to bear. I loved how feisty and sweet and vulnerable she could be.

The reader is introduced to many new characters. Brothers, father, boyfriend, girlfriends, the local MC and even drug dealers and undercover cops! The story had lots of action and moved very quickly! The characters were very expressive and you could easily fall for them. There were some editing issues, but it didn’t take anything away from the story as a whole. It was an awesome debut from M.A. Stone and I definitely recommend it!

Rock notes

Madison Tierney’s a writer, whose husband, Thomas suddenly left her after 10 years; she is destroyed and now recently alone and divorced. She picks herself up slowly trying to restore her lost confidence and ability to love again. She follows her writing passion and ventures to follow a local band – Rolling Isaac’s and write about them, raw and real and how they follow their dreams. Her book is titled ROCK NOTES.

Her ex-husband wants to come back, and she is torn with what she had for ten years with him which was safe, comforting and a committed relationship. And now she is falling hard for the band singer – Max Rand (Madison calls him Rand), who is several years younger than her and every moment with him is intense and unpredictable.

Rand has tragically lost love in his life. He has no love left to give. He fills his time with many groupies and late nights. The story travels you to various concert venues, from a sexy piercing party to a New Years rocking eve. There are many interruptions and assumptions for this couple along their journey.

While Madison is writing ROCK NOTES, somewhere along the way she begins to write LOVE NOTES, which are personal secret love letters for Rand. Also Rand is always writing music with the hope of creating his first solo album. Both Madison and Rand appear to be able to write their feelings on paper effortlessly but have a hard time conveying them to one another. This story is about being so broken inside from having your heart ripped apart, to attempting to rebuild trust, follow your dreams and hopefully find love.

Will she return to the warm awaiting arms of her ex-husband who still is in love with her? Or will there be a new beginning for Madison and Rand? Can these two empty souls feel love again? Or will what ignites between them simply fade away after the concert lights dim?

Rock Notes Excerpt –

Once my eyes closed, my thoughts turned to Rand, lost soul, lost love, so similar to me but then on stage he was so confident and sure of himself and his place in the world. That confidence was something that I lacked. He attacked the stage and all his charm and stunning looks dissolved those that set their eyes or minds on him. My mind kept trailing over and over about him.

His deep blue eyes, his messy dark hair that just swept over his shoulder, his towering height, his hidden inks. I could think of nothing but him.

I tensed for a moment when I felt someone hovering over me. I felt a breath and caught the scent of Rand fresh from a shower. I was lying on my side and I slightly opened my eyes. I knew I was seeing him, not dreaming. I could see him getting closer and I shut my eyes, remaining so very still. He reached down, took his curved fingers down my cheek, so slowly and tenderly and then he leaned in and kissed me on the forehead. Trailing his mouth down from my forehead he placed a soft kiss on the side of my neck and then moved upward to the tip of my shoulder and he lightly bit at my cami strap. I was so completely shocked and although I wanted to reach around and tell him I was awake, I couldn’t move. I had hopes that in the darkness he didn’t see me see peak out at him moments earlier. He then whispered, “Night Madison” and he tugged off my boots and pulled a light blanket over me.

When the sun appeared in the bedroom I awoke all nervous, I got up and went to the bathroom. I had to search my purse for items to make myself presentable. It had only been about four hours that I slept. I gathered my boots and put my sweater back on and went downstairs to find Rand already wide awake and in the kitchen making us some breakfast.

“I’m starving,” he said looking at me like he was ready to devour me. “Madison what are you hungry for?”

He made me hesitate to answer him, I was definitely hungry for him. “I think I could eat something.” My stomach was excited and jumping inside just from seeing him so relaxed and cooking.

“Your phone has been vibrating all morning.”

“What’s vibrating?” I was too focused on his body and didn’t hear his words.

“Your phone, you left it on the steps last night with your computer.”

“Oh, okay that’s what was vibrating.” I was still watching his body in motion, and was thinking of how I would like him to make me stir. He caught me staring at him and I looked away and then I remembered I had silenced my phone during their practice and then powered it up when we walked over to the house. I had to pull myself together so I went to retrieve my phone and I looked at all the missed messages, they were from Jillian. I hollered back, “Rand, I just need a few minutes to check my messages.” I went into his main front room and dialed her back.

“Where the hell are you?” Jillian yelled. She was so worried that I hadn’t called her and she stopped by my place having her own key and I was no where to be found. It took some effort to calm her but I told her briefly what had happened since the concert.

“Jillian can you take me to Philly today to get my car? I don’t want to put Rand out anymore. I’ll just see if he can bring me back to my house.”

“I’ll agree only on one condition, I want every single detail, don’t leave anything out, I want all of them!” I had to put my hand over the phone as she said this. She was so loud and I hoped Rand did not hear any of this.

“Hey, I should go, I don’t want to be rude, he is making me breakfast,” I whispered to her.

“No I bet you’re his breakfast…but I’ll come get you at noon. You can tell me then how great this sexy man is.”

I didn’t get to comment, as she hung up too quickly. Rand flashed me a sexy smile when I returned to the kitchen, I wasn’t

sure if he heard any of our conversation. I did look up at the high ceiling in his house and knew each word spoken echoed.

Love Notes Excerpt-

A damp tear hit the corner of my eye and I was glad to have only a touch of makeup on, “I love you so much more,” I replied. I pulled up on my feet to reach his waiting lips and take him in and not only by the mouth, but by his waist to have him near me. We moved from kissing to him dropping to his knees and slowly dropping my warm up pants with one pull on the string. I come apart in seconds and bite my lower lip so that I could contain my scream. A moan of pleasure shakes through my throat. I am breathless and spent as I come and hear his soft groans of satisfaction below. I don’t know how I am going to make it to or through the ceremony.

As Rand slowly rises up next to me licking his lips with the biggest grin, I reach below to feel to the zipper holding him tightly restrained. Slowly, I release him from his jeans. Fleeting thoughts passed my mind, to be in a compromising situation like this with so many workers surrounding the property that at any moment any of them could walk in on us…it actually made the moment more intimate and exciting and we couldn’t take our hands off one another. It didn’t take too long until we were one with our bodies and I felt a rush of emotion race through me as

yet another tear slid down my cheek. Rand noticed and looked intently into my eyes and licked the droplet away. I was filled with Rand soulfully and completely. I felt the pulsation of us beating in my core together.

As we usually are interrupted in our heated moments, this was special as it seemed a long time we were there with one another and no one calling for us. This day was a new beginning, affirmation of love, and a relationship that should have happened a long time ago.

Music Notes Excerpt:

“Let me start with taking your shirt off so I can see you.” I catch her eyes with that comment and excitement is looking back

toward me. I lower my mouth to her flesh and taking her nipple to my lips. I’m holding back to make love to her sweetly and slowly. Her hands rake through my hair rapidly with need as she moans and then Madison pulls away from my mouth that was sucking her luscious breasts. Before I can try to protest or slow down our pace she has positioned herself on top of me and she is rubbing her mound against my jeans eagerly waiting for me to make the next move. I can’t resist her repeated gyrations, I am going to freaking come before I get inside her. Keeping her seated over me I raise my pelvis lifting her up a slight bit and she giggles. I shift my already unzipped pants down and now she can continue her dance on my naked, exposed shaft.

All that is between us is her long skirt that she hiked up in her initial climb on top of me. I take my tense hands and tightly pull up the sides of the fabric until it is close to her smooth thighs. All I know is that I want to find my resting place between those thighs. I slide my free hand underneath her skirt and can feel the warmth that is coming from her. I touch her with just a flick and she quivers and groans. Her head is thrown back and her eyes closed and she is still rocking and moving her pelvis into me, but now with me playing her folds.

“Rand, I, oh, I, meant to make you feel…oh, that feels so good.” Madison is getting out of breath. I know it won’t be long, I only have to play with her just a tiny bit more. Oh yeah, she will be breathless in about fifteen seconds… “RAND OH YES, YES, RAND!!!!” In my head I know that was actually just about five seconds, and I’m grateful for that. I know I can’t hold out much longer, and I still haven’t gotten inside her.

I almost expected her to lie next to me and relax after having a great orgasm. I was wrong though. She always feels that she has to take care of me. Without shifting positions, Madison reaches under and finds what is waiting for her. She takes hold of me and guides me right into her warmth and we groan in unison as we fit together so damn perfectly.

Truth or Dare by Sloan Johnson Review

21394565

5 Smooches

kis kis kis kis kis

Synopsis

Lea Baker fell in love with Colby Davis four years ago. The problem? He sees her as one of the guys.

After the party from hell, both of them will be forced to face their true feelings for one another. Once the truth comes out, everything changes.

Review

I so completely and utterly LOVED this New Adult serial by Sloan Johnson. Since I am not a huge fan of cliffhangers, I do not often read serials. But now, after reading Truth or Dare I feel I must be missing out! Sloan was able to grab my attention from the beginning and make me fall in love with all the characters in story.

Truth or Dare revolves around a pair of best friends, Lea and Colby, who happen to also be room-mates. These two bonded in High School and have only become closer as the years go on. Scared to mess up what they have and scared that their futures are taking them in different directions neither one will own up to the feelings they have for the other.

This was very much a coming of age story of two best friends deciding if having everything they ever worth the possibility of losing all that they have.  Deciding to take that next step from a friendship that has lasted years and life changes is difficult and this story proves that.

I really enjoyed watching Lea and Colby try to deal with the feelings they were having and the ramifications of their actions. Truth or Dare found just the right mix of fun and excitement and emotional stress. I thought the idea of all of this coming to fruition from a game of Truth or Dare was unique and exciting. As a young girl I can clearly remember playing games like this and just wishing something exciting would come out of it, so for me this was a youthful fantasy come true. Sloan wrote the beginning of a fun but beautiful story that I cannot wait to continue.

Review

I love all of Nicole Edwards books.  Her Alluring Indulgence Series is my favorite, though.  What can I say?  I am a southern girl and I love me some hot cowboys.  My favorite book of the Club Destiny series has always been Temptation but Perception might have just taken its place.  I really loved this book so hard.

Mercedes and Xander are both Doms.  They have been friends for many years but the truth is that Xander has just been waiting for the right moment to snatch, his bestie, Mercedes up.  He is in love with her and wants him all for his own.  Poor Mercedes doesn’t even see it coming and believes there relationship never has the possibility of being more than friendly, seeing as they are both Doms.  But Xander knows different.  He knows that Mercedes is more subservient than she could ever imagine and he wants her to give him five days to prove it.

10247267_10154004572160414_1504570965959690226_nThis book had me gripped from the start.  I was really rooting for Xander.  He is a man who knows what he wants in everything and he wants Mercedes with an insatiable passion that was too hot for words.  Mercedes really comes into her own with Xande’rs help.  But can he help her realize that submitting doesn’t make her weak; that when she submits she is the true holder of all the cards?

Perception was a bit different from the other Club Destiny books as it was more heavy on the BDSM, which I really enjoyed.  It was still extremely scorching hot in true Nicole Edwards fashion!  Xander and those spankings.  Whew!  That is all I have to say about that.

Synopsis

She lied to me…

She betrayed the one rule that I’m most adamant about: Honesty. Complete and utter fucking honesty .

I really wish she was someone else–someone who didn’t have the ability to make me feel, someone I could easily discard like the hundreds of women before her.

She isn’t.

I’m drawn to her like I’ve never been drawn to a woman before–completely captivated by the very sight of her. But unfortunately, with my past slowly re-surfacing for all of the world to see, I’ll have to find a way to let her go.

She can never be mine.

Crash

Synopsis

When outlaw biker Tyler “Crash” Shaw volunteers his services to his club brother, Cole Austin, VP of the Evil Dead MC, he suddenly finds himself a rich girl’s bodyguard and babysitter. Well, it’s a bitch of a job, but maybe he can have a little fun with it. He thinks he’ll get a kick out of teaching the pampered stuck-up girl a lesson or two on how the other half lives. She can cook and clean for him in exchange for his help. No free ride for her. He intends to teach her that money can’t buy her way through life.
The world saw a classy pulled-together wealthy lady. All he saw was a spoiled little rich girl. A troublemaker, that’s all she was to him. Until she revealed the shattered girl inside that tried so hard to hide her weaknesses and fears with a façade of arrogance, attitude, and sass.
He’d tear down those walls she tried so hard to build, if only she’d let him.
Could the love of a man so wrong for her be the only one to save her?
And in his darkest hour, would her love be enough to save him?
From the MC’s California charter in San Jose, to the casinos and brothels of Reno, to brother charters in the Deep South, this story will take you on a ride of highs and lows that lead ultimately to redemption.

Review

This is the second in the series written by Nicole James and I absolutely love both Outlaw and Crash. They are wonderful MC reads with such a heart. The story development is so rich with multiple characters stealing your heart.

I loved the contrast between Crash and Shannon. Crash is so strong and straight forward. He says things how he sees them, no regrets, no judgements, even though he may be judged in return. Shannon is afraid to admit the truth, admit when she is wrong and just be herself. She hides behind her looks and her wealth. Slowly as the story develops, Crash breaks down all those walls filled with attitude and brings out the true Shannon. It’s a wonder to read about.

This story is very long, and very well written. It read so easily and the banter between the boys is some of the best I’ve read in a long time. All the men in the MC have such a fun attitude and the commentary will make you laugh out loud. I snorted quite a few times trying to stay quiet as my husband slept soundly next to me.

One thing I didn’t expect was to get multiple points of view. I loved that! We got to hear more from Angel and Cole, Mack and Natalie. I just love those relationships that were introduced in Outlaw. That being said, this could be read as a standalone, but I highly recommend reading Outlaw first. The back story in that one will help with understanding where Shannon is coming from and why she acts out the way she does in Crash.

I am a huge fan of MC reads and this is one of my favorite series. I cannot wait for more!

5 smooches!

Character Casting

A LITTLE TOO MUCH:

 

We first meet Alessandro Moretti in A LITTLE TOO FAR. He is a transitional deacon studying in Rome, only months away from becoming a Catholic priest…until Lexie Banks stumbles into his life. She shakes him to the core and makes him question the path he’s on. He had a rough upbringing, and did some things he believes are unforgivable. He feels his only road to redemption is to give himself to the Church and devote his life to helping others. Lexie makes him see the flaws in his logic.

Eduardo Verastegui is my perfect Alessandro

He returns to New York to try to make amends for some of the wrong he’s done, and Hilary McIntyre is one of those things. He hurt Hilary in ways he can’t even admit to himself, and now he want to help her…but from a distance. But Alessandro finds that history catches up with him and he can’t stay objective when it comes to Hilary. Despite his best intentions, he’s falling in love with her all over again.

Hilary is hard to cast because she’s the product of an Irish redhead and a Jamaican. Picture Paula Patton with faint freckles and a reddish tint to her black hair.

Seeing Alessandro again rocks Hilary’s world. She’s finally got her life on track and there’s no way she’s going to let a ghost from her past derail it. And he can never know the true devastation he left behind. But as she finds herself falling for the man who, as a boy, both saved her and destroyed her, she has a decision to make. Risk everything for love, or walk away from her only chance at happiness.

We see these two again in a pivotal scene neat the end of A LITTLE TOO HOT (book 3 in the A LITTLE TOO series).

ALTMuchBOOK SUMMARY:

In the follow-up to Lisa Desrochers’ explosive New Adult novel A Little too Far, Alessandro Moretti must face the life he escaped and the girl he loved and left behind.

Twenty-two year old Hilary McIntyre would like nothing more than to forget her past. As a teenager abandoned to the system, she faced some pretty dark times. But now that’s all behind her. Hilary has her life on track, and there’s no way she’ll head back down that road again.

Until Alessandro Moretti—the one person who can make her remember—shows up on her doorstep. He’s even more devastatingly gorgeous than before, and he’s much too close for comfort. Worse, he sees right through the walls she’s built over these last eight years, right into her heart and the secrets she’s guarding.

As Hilary finds herself falling back into love with the man who, as a boy both saved and destroyed her, she must decide. Past or future? Truth or lies?
