In Bed With The Beast by Tara Sivec Review

4.5 Smooches

Synopsis

A tale as old as time: she needs a place to stay, he’s a grump with a secret and an extra room…can love find a way?

Meet the Naughty Princess Club, a series from USA Today bestselling author Tara Sivec that brings readers to Fairytale Lane and the hilarity—and romance—that three women fall into once they decide to strut their stuff and bring on their own happily ever after.

Living in her overprotective dad’s basement, shy Belle lives her life through books. Being a part of the Naughty Princess Club is the first adventure she’s ever had, plus she desperately needs the money to save one of her favorite places – the local library.

But when her new friends and new business gets her kicked out of her dad’s house, Belle is rescued by the surly Vincent “Beast” Adams who invites her to be his house guest until she gets back on her feet. Despite his attitude problem and long list of rules, Belle finds herself warming to the muscled man with a penchant for growling and starts seeing a gentle side to him that wasn’t there before.

Yet there’s a room that Beast keeps locked and Belle keeps getting hints that Beast is hiding something…can a nerdy librarian tame the beast or will their romance be over before it has a chance to blossom?

Review

In Bed With The Beast is the second book in the Naughty Princess Club series by Tara Sivec and is filled with just as much ridiculous fun as the first. I have to say I think this might be my favorite int he series, though I’ll wait for Kiss The Girl to call it. But then again I have always been a big fan of Belle!

A shy librarian stripper and a brute of a strip club bouncer make for quite the pair. When these two opposites become roommates they couldn’t be more different. Their attraction is obvious but something is keeping them from acting on it. I loved how he brought out the spunk in her and she found the softness in him. They really were a perfect pair.

The series as a whole has to be taken with a sense of humor and fun. You can’t take it too seriously or it’ll end up losing some of its whimsy. While a tad silly it is full of a ton of heart, some amazing female friendships, and heroes who are more than they appear. A great escape from reality!

Once inside the château, however, Kingsley quickly falls under the erotic spell cast by the enigmatic Madame, a woman of wisdom, power, and beauty. She offers Kingsley the one thing he’s always wanted. But the price? Giving up forever the only person he’s ever loved.

Excerpts

This is an exclusive excerpt from The Chateau: An Erotic Thriller, on sale this June from 8th Circle Press…

The ropes around his wrists were long enough Polly didn’t have to untie him. Kingsley simply rolled onto his stomach and moved back into place, the ropes twisting into a knot. The pressure on his wrists was comfortable, but tight enough to feel like a pair of strong hands. Strong hands on his wrists, Kingsley lying prone, someone about to take him…

Just like high school.

“I see you smiling,” Polly said as she moved off the bed to do whatever it was she needed to do.

“Just remembering,” he said. “It’s funny. I don’t usually smile when I remember…”

“What?”

“Anything,”

Polly kissed the back of his shoulder. “I’ll give you a memory to make you smile.”

Kingsley let out a breath of pleasure as Polly laid her hand flat on the small of his back and caressed him there.

“This is my favorite part,” she said.

“Back rubs?”

“No, silly boy. Backs are my favorite part. Boy backs. My favorite body part,” she said. “Right here.” With her fingertips she lightly scored the center of his back where his tailbone met his spine. “Maybe that’s why I love doing this so much. The view of you is divine…”

With a compliment like that, how could Kingsley object to anything she wanted to do with his body? Polly whispered instructions in his ear. He did as told, and he did it with pleasure. He pulled his knees up under him and spread them. Polly worked the plug out of him carefully.

She positioned herself behind him and started to slowly…slowly…slowly enter him. Too slowly.

Polly told him to lay flat, to stretch out his legs—however was most comfortable for him. He was under the strictest of orders to tell her the second he felt a moment’s pain. But there was no pain, no discomfort. Fullness, yes. Not pain. Not like he’d known once.

“You like this, don’t you?” Polly said as she kissed and licked the back of his neck. “Being taken? Penetrated? Used?”

“Very much.”

“Say it then,” she said.

“Say what?”

“Say you like penetration. You said you aren’t shy, so say it. Or are you shy?”

He opened his mouth, laughed softly. “You make me feel shy. It’s an accomplishment.”

“Kingsley…” Polly said as she nibbled on his earlobe. “Say it or I’ll stop fucking you…” Her voice was teasing, but the order was an order. It had to be obeyed.

“I like being penetrated,” he said. “There. Happy?”

“So very happy. If I keep doing this,” she said and thrust into him, “will you come?”

“Yes.”

“You’re sure?”

“I would bet my life on it.”

“You’ve come from penetration alone before?”

“I have.”

“High school?”

“Wouldn’t you like to know?”

Review

To be honest I couldn’t give a synopsis anymore than what the author already gives. This is one intense erotic thriller/romance, the likes of which I’ve come to love from this author. The erotic nature of these stories are individual, unique and deeply intense.

“I’m going to touch you,” she said. “If you have an objection to that, then I don’t know why you’re here.” Again, Kingsley did not speak. He had absolutely no objection to being touched. Not by her, anyway.”

Be ready to delve deep into BDSM fantasy with The Chateau; where we follow Kingsley’s journey of pain, pleasure and discovery. I actually really loved Kingsley’s character; I loved that he was both strong and new to knowledge at the same time. He was discovering about himself at the same time we were and I liked that kind of naivety about him.

“For my job I have to lie to everyone. I’d like to tell the truth to someone before I forget how.”

I have to be so careful to ensure I don’t give anything away but I will say I LOVED Madame; she was mysterious and intense and extreme in the best way. I definitely feels BDSM, and sadism in particular, is very hard to write about. There is a fine line between beautiful, erotic and intense and something that could become very uncomfortable to read. And as always, Tiffany Riez, finds that balance beautifully.

“Between the kiss and the answer, he would always pick the kiss.”

There are many twists and turns throughout that will keep completely enthralled with Kingsley’s story. And as much as it a story in it itself, it is also very much a self discovery story about Kingsley and how he has become the person many readers know him as. If you love BDSM and if you love intense and thrilling stories then this is the perfect read for you!

I’ll say this about Christian — he made one hell of a first impression. When I first saw the strapping man, he was doing handstands naked on a dock along the canal. His crown jewels were far more entertaining than anything else I’d seen on the boat tour, so I did what any curious woman would do — I took his photo. I might have looked at the shot a few dozen times. Little did I know I’d meet him again, a year later, at a secret garden bar in the heart of the city, where I’d learn that his mind and his mouth were even more captivating. But given the way my heart had been trampled, I wanted only a simple deal — No strings. No expectations.

Our arrangement worked well enough until the day I needed a lot more from him…

But then, one hysterical phone call from my brother later, begging me to find myself a wife so grandfather’s business stays in the family, and I need a promotion with Elise. Turns out a full-time husband suits her needs too, and a temporary marriage of convenience ought to do the trick, until we can simply untie the knot…

As long as no one finds out…
As long as no one gets hurt…
As long as no one falls in love…

EXCERPT

~Elise~

A year ago

The boat slides under another bridge then motors through a more residential area, passing homes on the water and private docks every few feet. My eyes hungrily eat up the view. My current hometown of Paris is my love, but I could get used to weekends in Copenhagen. It’s a delightful mix of old and new, like a Swiss alpine town mated with a futuristic sky-rise city.

As I gaze at the sun-soaked homes, I imagine lazy afternoons drinking strong coffee on the deck, reading delicious tales under the rays. That seems like a recipe for happiness for the rest of my days.

I want to feel that way. Happy. It’s been so damn elusive lately, and for a fleeting moment, it feels as if I grasp it again, so I’m no longer teetering on the edge of grief and shame.

But that’s why I’m here, to move past that terrible duet.

I try valiantly to simply enjoy everything in front of me: the buildings, the water, the view.

As we round the bend in the canal, I blink at the view.

Holy hell, the unexpected view.

Nearby is a private dock.

On that dock is a man.

He’s performing a downward-facing dog, and his rear is facing us.

What a spectacular ass.

It’s not covered in sweatpants or basketball shorts.

It’s au naturel, as finely sculpted as the statue of David.

He’s a dog all right.

I sit up.

I practically stand. I lean on the edge of the boat, agog. I won’t even pretend I’m not looking. I’m ogling.

The Japanese friends whisper and point. The couple shifts closer to get a better look. The college girls titter and laugh.

We slide along on the calm water, and now we’re fifty feet away from a sight way better than the Little Mermaid statue, more magnificent than the royal palace.

He bends forward, pressing his palms into the wood, lifting his legs, and flipping them upside down.

Full. Frontal. Birthday suit.

He’s a tall drink of a man, and I’m so very thirsty.

“Look,” I whisper to Veronica, though of course she’s already engaged in the fine art of gawking. “Did you know the Mad Naked Handstander of Copenhagen was on the tour?”

She sighs contentedly. “I am so glad you forced me to go to the buffet.” She parks her chin in her hands, watching the tall upside-down creature.

“My favorite part of the buffet is dessert,” I say, as my eyes gobble him up.

This man wears nudity well, even in this unusual position.

“I enjoyed the rubies and emeralds in Rosenborg Castle, but I like these crown jewels even better,” I say.

And hey, perhaps I’m perving, but I’m an equal-opportunity spectator at this private dock show. I don’t merely peer at the centerpiece of his physique, resting majestically against the grooves of his abs. My eyes take a most happy stroll up and down his carved body, from the planes of his stomach, to his strong thighs, to his arms ripped with muscles. His face is hard to read at 180 degrees, but I see the shape of his cheekbones, carved by angels.

Then, he moves. He walks on his hands. Back and forth.

Like he’s performing.

Showing off his most unique skill set.

I chuckle louder.

Then louder still when he holds himself up on one hand only, waving to us.

“What a show-off,” Veronica says.

Lars clears his throat. “And sometimes, we see the unexpected sights of Copenhagen.”

I do what any curious onlooker might do. I grab my phone and snap.

Snap.

Snap.

The man stands, takes a bow, and waves.

My chest heats up. The temperature in me flirts with mercury levels. He’s a stunner. My God, he’s like Skarsgård, from this distance.

And because I believe in speaking my mind, I cup my hand over my mouth and shout, “Bravo. All of it.”

He doffs an imaginary top hat and takes a bow. “My pleasure.” His voice books across the water, his accent a British one.

Sparks unexpectedly race down my chest. That accent is delicious. “Oh no. The pleasure is truly all mine.”

REVIEW:

For me, reading romance is all about the rush of falling in love and the ensuing journey to happily ever after. A first love, a new love or a love rekindled, it doesn’t matter, I just want to feel it all and fall right along with the couple in the book. A Lauren Blakely novel, however, is the best of that experience. Her worlds, her swoon-worthy heroes and the knee-weakening romance of her love stories are the cheesecakes of my reading diet. Rich, delicious, decadent treats that are meant to be savored, lingered over, looked forward to and remembered fondly.

Having read many of Blakely’s novels, I can honestly say that there is something unique and special about the romances she’s set in Paris. Sweeping, grand and vividly detailed on the page, Blakely has given her readers an exquisite experience in these stories. Readers of Wanderlust will recall meeting charming, sexy Christian and mysterious, sensual Elise in that book. Although it is a complete standalone novel, Part-Time Lover picks up their story there and dashes through the cobble-stone lined streets of Paris with it.

I’m a big fan of tropes. Friends to lovers, big brother’s best friend, second-chance romances? Yes, yes and yes! I can now add marriages of convenience to the list. Blakely blended this trope with a dash of second-chance, heart-tugging emotion—along with a bit of fate—and the result was a wonderfully endearing love story that I simply didn’t want to put down. A hilariously unusual meet-cute and a series of unintentional run-ins put this couple in each other’s orbit on more than one occasion. While they both may have only been looking for a no-strings fling, fate clearly had other ideas. These two people, with their guarded hearts, out merely to right a wrong, wind up agreeing to what should be a neat and tidy, mutually beneficial arrangement. But what they didn’t take into consideration was their explosive chemistry, their made-for-each-other compatibility or the off-the-charts passion between them. I was literally bouncing in my seat with how badly I wanted this couple to give in to each other and to love!

Jam-packed with Blakely’s keen attention to detail, her fabulous sense of humor and a sexy, sweet, consuming romance, Part-Time Lover was a heart-fluttering, full of hope joy to read. I adored this couple, and I was pulling for them every step of the way as I positively devoured this book. Five smooches from me for Part-Time Lover by Lauren Blakely!

THE NAKED TRUTH

A Standalone Second Chance Romance Novel

By:  #1 NY Times Best Selling Author, Vi Keeland

RELEASE DATE:  Monday, July 23, 2018

 

 

Synopsis:

It was just a typical Monday.

Until the big boss asked me to make the pitch for a prospective new client.

After two years on shaky ground at work because of my screw up, an opportunity to impress the senior partners was just what I needed.

Or so I thought…

Until I walked into the conference room and collided with the man I was supposed to pitch.

My coffee spilled, my files tumbled to the ground, and I almost lost my balance.

And that was the good part of my day.

Because the gorgeous man crouched down and looking at me like he wanted to eat me alive, was none other than my ex, Gray Westbrook.

A man who I’d only just begun to move on from.

A man who my heart despised—yet my body obviously still had other ideas about.

A man who was as charismatic and confident as he was sexy.

Somehow, I managed to make it through my presentation ignoring his intense stare.

Although it was impossible to ignore all the dirty things he whispered into my ear right after I was done.

But there was no way I was giving him another chance, especially now that he was a client…was there?

Gent by Harloe Rae Release Blitz with Excerpt and Giveaway

 

 

Title: GENT
Author: Harloe Rae
Genre: New Adult Romance
Release Date: May 30, 2018

Blurb

Raven Elliot blasts into town like a wrecking ball—striking and devastating.
With a few simple words, my reliable routine crumbles to dust.

 

“Is this seat taken?”
 
I could close my eyes and let her voice wrap around me like a lover’s caress.
But this isn’t that kind of story.
And I’m sure as hell not that kind of man.
 
She hovers in my space, batting her lashes and smiling shyly.
The glimmer in her sapphire eyes is a promise of peace.
But I’m not falling for it.
And Raven doesn’t take the hint.
 
What starts as a battle of wills, explodes into a turf war.
She stands directly in my path everywhere I turn.
No matter how hard I shove, she won’t budge.
Raven seems dead set on driving me insane.
But I was here first.
And I’m not going down easy.
 
After all, no one ever taught me how to treat a lady.

Excerpt
“Listen, babe—”
She holds up her hand like a stop sign and for some reason, having her interrupt doesn’t bother me.
“Did you just babe me?” Her question is all sass.
“Sure did, sweetheart. Call ‘em like I see ‘em. Don’t pretend to be offended. We both know why you’re over here talking to me.”
Her face turns an adorable shade of pink. “First, stop with the nicknames. Second, are you for real? What the hell is wrong with you?”
“I don’t see any issue. You’re the one disrupting my quiet evening.”
“What the… I mean, seriously? I want to sit down and this is the only available spot. You honestly think I came over here to hit on you?”
Her ridiculous question doesn’t deserve a response. My glare matches hers as I silently explain my opinion on the matter. My expression must tell her everything she needs to know.
“Wow, you’re an asshole.”
“You’re the third woman to call me that tonight. Be careful, I might get a complex.”
“Aw, poor baby. I’d hate to dent your fragile ego,” she snips with a curl in her lip.
“There’s nothing fragile about me. Don’t worry. I’m hard and solid. Wanna feel?” I ask and pat my abs.
She nods to my hands. “No, thanks. I’d hate for you to rub off on me.”
“Does the grease under my nails bother you? Princess is afraid of getting a little dirty?”
“Do you get a rise out of being mean?”
I lean against the bar and cross my arms. “I don’t get many complaints. You’re not from around here, so I’ll fill you in—the ladies love me.”
“Pretty sure I saw Barbie McCleveage storm off after chatting with you. She didn’t look too satisfied.”
“Now who’s using nicknames? Jealous much?”
“Hardly,” she huffs.  
I smirk before checking out her rack, being extremely obvious about it. Pushing her buttons takes away the tension from earlier, replacing it with a surprising ease. Fighting with her is the most nonsexual fun I’ve had with a woman in a long time. Wonder how she’d react if I called her ma’am.
“All right, all right. You’ve broken me down. I was set on not having any company tonight, but for you, I’ll make an exception. If you insist on standing here, blabbing away, I’ve got far better uses for that luscious mouth. My place isn’t too far away,” I suggest while waggling my brows. My behavior is over the top, but what can I say? She’s bringing out the best in me.
Her lips part in shock. This stranger just stares at me, and I’m sure she’s about to turn away… or slap me. Either way, mission accomplished. But this chick is full of surprises.
