Synopsis

Blood Mate, a dark fairy tale…

Nicole has been happily married to big shot attorney, Dominic Rose for ten years, but soon after their anniversary he grows cold—as if she doesn’t exist. Meanwhile, another man has been pursuing her far too intently for comfort.

August Corinth is a six-hundred-year-old vampire, cursed to kill and suffer the pain of his victims each night until he can find the one woman who can resist his thrall, his blood mate. Once he’s found her, there are no lines he won’t cross to claim the promised salvation even if it means taking away everything and everyone she loves.

Review

This is my fourth Kitty Thomas book, so I like to think of myself as Kitty Connoisseur!  Hehe! See how I did that?  I really love her writing style, but I do not think there has ever been a book that she has written, that I didn’t feel pissed off about at the end.  I must be a glutton for punishment, because I always go back for more.  It is because her books are excellent. Homegirl can write her butt off.  Her books are always crazy as all get out and sexy as hell.  I just cannot resist.  Blood Mate is no exception!

Blood Mate, for me at least, was actually one of Kitty’s more tame books, but I still completely loved it.  I found myself rooting for August from the very beginning of this book.  I wanted Nicole to ditch the hubby and make my vampire happy!  I am not sure if I loved August because he deserved it or if I am just a vampire loving book ho.  Obviously Nicole isn’t, because she did not make things easy on my August, which led to a series of events, I cannot even begin to explain.  I am still not sure if Nicole is crazy and if this was all just a delusion.  Things just got cray cray and in true Kitty Thomas fashion I was all like…

I love this book!  As usual, Kitty’s writing was impeccable and her story telling was amazeballs! But, DAMN YOU, KITTY, DAMN YOU!  That ending just pissed me off, as usual.  The whole book was a complete mind fuck.  How can I love you and hate you so much?  So, when is the next book out?  😉  5 Smooches!

After graduating college with a shiny new piece of paper hung in a $3.00 Wal-mart frame I got my first “big girl” job with Synovus Financial Corporation.During the five years I stayed at the company, I bought a new truck, moved into my own apartment (in the same small town), and met the man who would eventually accept my craziness and ask me to marry him. I am privileged to call myself a US Navy Wife. My husband currently serves on the USS Hue City, which has been deployed more times during our marriage than it has been home. But we look forward to a three year shore duty in Colorado Springs.I have been very lucky to have had the support of my friends and family during the years and I look forward to many more years full of there snide remarks and sarcasm. I wouldn’t want them any other way.Personal Interests:Writing, Reading, Journaling, Hunting, Fishing, Driving down random dirt roads, cheering on UF football games, drinking beer around a camp fire, shopping, pretending to be food reviewers at restaurants, slip and sliding in the backyard with my nieces, and crafting.

Synopsis

Wanderlust’s bad-boy rocker, Alan Price, didn’t know what he wanted until it was gone—or at least heading for the door. Alan’s closest friend, Nora Barton, who also happens to be the manager of his band, has confided her attraction to a rival musician. Alan is stunned; even more so when the beautiful Nora asks him to teach her the sexual skills she’ll need to seduce the infamous Derek Devlin.  Alan tries to dissuade her, but Nora’s mind is made up. His only hope is to win her over the way he knows best—in bed. But even Alan’s prodigious sexual talents may not be enough to convince Nora to give him a chance to be more than a friend.
Review

I pretty much detest novellas in general.  I know that is horrible to say but I often find them rushed.  They usually leave me with a feeling of incompleteness.  Not this one, folks!  I could not believe this was Felina Dark’s first book.   It was not rushed at all.  I really felt like I read a complete novel.  I think this must be really hard to do as an author because I have read some really crappy novellas.  It was really eloquently written and the characters were completely lovable.

I loved how Alan was your quintessential rocker, hooking up with groupies, and generally whoring around but still having a sweet and sensitive side.  Total bad ass sweetness.  I really dig this in my rocker books, but the real star of this book, for me, was Nora.  Which is totally rare.  I usually like the boys better.  😉  But, Nora just drew me in.  She was just so quirky and logical, and innocent, and a seductress at the same time.  She was a big heap of contradictions and I absolutely loved her for it.

Now, lets get to the nitty gritty of what I REALLY loved about this book.  Holy moley, the sex was smokin hot!  Whew!  Felina really knows how to write some erotic scenes.  It was dirty dirty and I was glued to my kindle.

“Suck me, Nora, let me come, just let–” The rest of his words were not even coherent to him.

For a moment, he submerged.  Then felt pleasantly afloat in the warm harbor of Nora’s mouth.  He let himself drift in that exquisite pool as his body hung limp and weightless.  It took long minutes for him to resurface.  Gradually, visions of brooms and cartons and whiffs of ammonia slowly ebbed and flowed with the glossy feel of hair and the labored sound of her breathing.

Hot tears stung his cheeks. He clenched and unclenched to chase the numbness from his fingers before he sat up and looked at Nora.

Do y’all see what I am talking about?  Virgin Nora made hot bad boy Alan cry with a BJ.  Girl has skills.  Nora is bad ass!  But anyways, wasn’t that hot?  Felina can really write a dirty scene and make it sound eloquent and sweet.  Phew!

Great debut book, Felina Dark.  She informs me there is more to come in this series and I have to tell you, I am literally dying to get my hands on the next book.  4 out of 5 smooches!

Dirty Little Freaks by Jaden Wilkes

kiskiskiskiskis

So, When I heard this was going be Punk Rock book with lots of kinky sex, of course my reaction was GREAT!!

I was not let down! Dirty Little Freaks is a true love story in the dirtiest way possible. Not only is this book sexy, gritty, hot, and, kinky but it is a fantastic love story that kept me rooting for the pair the whole way  through the book!

Jaden Wilkes wrote a story that will turn you and make you feel tingly in all kinds of places, but make your heart swell at the same time. This story is sexy, endearing ,and hilarious all at the time.

pizap.com13915694104581

Jade is a twenty-something  punk party girl with tattoos and bright colored hair who does not care what you think! Jade spends her time working in a sex shop and partying it up when she can! Jade drinks, does drugs, and enjoys some kinky sex. Between partying and working in the sex shop she is so disillusioned with sex that even she can admit she does not get enough. On the rare occasion when she does have sex it is random and reckless. She knows she is missing love, goals, and moving forward with her life but is stuck where she is.

pizap.com13915704670001

Hush is the scorching hot new bass player for Bondo. With his green Mohawk, perfect ass, and penchant for a good time he is just what any girl would want! Jade and Hush meet at a Bondo gig and with the help of a little E and a whole lot of alcohol Jade decides Hush is the answer to her dry spell. He is tattooed and oozes sex and Jade is determined to have him and won’t wait! It doesn’t take long for this quick good time to turn into an actual relationship with actual drama. This is definitely something neither one of them are really prepared for and they don’t how how to deal with all they are feeling!

It is hard not to go all girl crush on Hush. He is fun and adventurous (wink wink) and just pure sex. But even more he is sweet and really kind with Jade. What girl doesn’t want a super sexy man who knows how to talk sweet to her too!

Now for the fun part! If you like dirty, raw ,and kinky sex than you are my kind of reader and will love this book. This book features public sex, M/F/M threesome, sex with drug use ,and much much more! I loved it. My girly parts were tingling from the beginning from the hotness and I was never got let down only turned on!

 Now, for my warning . . .

 

This book is full of SEX and DRUGS . . .dirty, kinky ,and at times unprotected sex. There is mass amounts of drug use and characters do not always make the best decisions . . . but those are some of the best parts! 😉 If you are a bit of a prude then this book is probably not for you, but if you have an open mind and enjoy a good sexy read then this book will definitely rev your engine!

This book was delicious! It was a great story that was also sexy and raw! Dirty Little Freaks was an easy read and I was able to read this book in one day. So caught up in it, that I had to force myself to take potty breaks because changing peed on clothes would have taken longer and distracted me from my reading. I was laughing hysterically from the very first copywrite page and continued throughout the whole book. I honestly never knew what to expect to come next and loved that about it. Dirty Little Freaks is a hot, racy, gritty, and fun but above all it is a great love story!

NOW GO BUY THIS BOOK!!! I LOVED IT!!

 Synopsis

Shane Dekkar is an undefeated, gorgeous, and somewhat shy boxer from Compton California. In the ring, he’s a beast, out of the ring, he’s loving, caring, and intriguing. After the death of his grandfather, he moves to Austin and meets Kace by happenstance as she and her boyfriend are in an argument in public. He is drawn to her, and she to him. Her boyfriend drives away as she mouths the words “help me” through the window…

When they meets again two years later, Shane begins to believe in fate. But, as he prepares for a potential shot at a championship fight, he believes there’s no time in his life or career for a woman.

Kace Meadows lives in Austin, Texas. Now 26, she has been in an abusive relationship since she was sixteen years old. As terrible as it is, she can’t seem to find a way to allow herself to end it. With her current boyfriend, she can’t seem to win. She finds hope in reading about her book boyfriends….and dreaming.

Until she meets Shane Dekkar, a boxer. Holy mother of perfection…

Shane fights his inner demons by using his fists. On the street or in the ring, Shane does what he does best, he wins at any cost. Unlike Kace, Shane can’t seem to lose.

Undefeated is an extremely romantic erotica novel about fighting. Fighting for what you believe in. Fighting for life. Fighting to live. And fighting to keep love once you find it.

Be prepared to be moved, touched, stand up and cheer, and cry your eyes out. This book will, without a doubt, knock you unconscious. This novel clearly defines the love that we all seem to want, yet can’t find. This is not your typical boxing/fighter romance. This book will give you hope, make you feel, and cause you to wonder….wonder why you haven’t met your Shane Dekkar.

CAUTION: Graphic sexual content. This book contains fighting scenes that are descriptive. This book has two descriptive scenes of abuse.

Review

So, at  Red Cheeks Reads, we really pay attention to what our likers post on our page and every time we asked, “what are y’all reading?” a ton of women responded with something by SD Hildreth.  So, Miranda, Nicole , and myself were like what’s up with this?  Who is this SD Hildreth and what does he write?  Nancy Screw, our resident smutty super sleuth uncovered Undefeated for us.  So we decided to give it a try.

I really enjoyed this book.  I have to be honest and say that I was shocked that I did.  I thought after reading some reviews for Scott’s Baby Girl Series that I had him pegged.  The truth is that I didn’t and he pleasantly surprised me.  His writing was pretty good.  I did catch a few typos but definitely not enough to distract from the story.  The premise of this story was excellent and I absolutely loved Shane.  He was totally swoon worthy. So freaking romantic and lush.

” I’m coming, Kace.  I’m coming for your heart.”

Sigh.  Seriously, I loved him.  All his “yes, sir’s” and “no, mam’s” had this southern girl feeling all melty.  But, nothing can compare to how he built Kace back up after so many years of being torn down with physical and verbal abuse.  It was too saaweeet.  Kace is a whole other matter, though.  I found her extremely annoying at first.  She just came off so dumb and socially awkward.  It really bothered me.  But, as the story progressed she got better, smarter even, and much more likeable.  As she healed emotionally from her abuse, she really came into her own, and I  actually liked her by the time the book was over.

For some reason I thought this book would be loaded with sex.  Like LOADED!  But it absolutely wasn’t.  I don’t think there was an actual sex scene until almost 60% of the way into the book.  It was a hot sex scene, so it was worth the wait.  This book was full of a lot more than sex.  It had very likeable characters and really funny scenes that I actually laughed out loud at.
Will I be joining Scott’s street team? Probably not.  I’m more of a solo author stalker.  Author stalking is a private act for me and I take that shit seriously. 😉  I will ,however, definitely recommend this book! It was a good one and I can’t wait to read Rippers story next.  4 smooches out of 5,Scott.  Don’t get too excited, fella.  They are just cyber smooches.  😉

Meet the Characters:

Dreamcast

Excerpt 1:

Closing the door behind me, I was grateful to be back in my own room. Peeling out of my clothes, I quickly got into the shower. It felt like an oasis, the water caressing my body. Thoughts of Mac and I in bed were coming back to me like rapid fire from a machine gun. These thoughts startled me as my body began to respond to the pictures in my mind. Mac knew his way around a female’s body and it certainly felt as though he had pulled out all the stops with me. When I closed my eyes I could visualize his head between my legs. The memory of it made my insides clench down deep. Then I remembered the culmination of his efforts and my body’s response in a tantalizing orgasm. It was unlike anything I had ever experienced before.

I had to push those thoughts out of my head because the whole situation was crazy. We got married, and he didn’t seem to be taken aback by it. In fact, he was calm about the whole thing. Strange reaction for a guy. I felt kind of bad for running out of there like I did, but when I fell on him, things became real—too real. I began remembering in that moment our intimate interaction, and for a split second, I thought about surrendering to my desire for him. Again. Willingly. While sober. If I had, we’d be in bed together, and he’d be doing…

Mac proclaims love

Excerpt 2:

She looked so open and carefree, that all I wanted to do was scoop her into my arms and kiss her. “I’m going to lay my cards on the table, no pun intended. I like you. I have from the moment you walked into the Statton’s kitchen. I’d like for us to get to know each other better and I want to start dating you when we return to San Diego. How do you feel about that?”

Natalie looked down at her hands for a moment. When she looked up at me she had a coy smile on her face. “I’d like that.”

I was so happy I acted on impulse. I leaned in and kissed her, gently at first, but then I couldn’t hold back and I invaded her mouth with my tongue, stroking hers in an erotic dance. My hands found her waist and I pulled her toward me, positioning her on top of me, her legs straddling my hips. She kissed me back with a passion I hadn’t experienced before, like she had been dying to be kissed and I was the cure. I untied her robe and slid my hands around her ribs. She was wearing a tank top and boxers. I debated running my hands over her breasts, but in light of her inexperience, I didn’t want to move too fast. So I just continued kissing her, pulling her body close to mine as she moaned in my mouth, causing my blood to overheat. I wanted her and I wanted her bad.

Penetrated heart

Excerpt 3:

Natalie went to shower, and after getting dressed, I went to place our order with Trina. When breakfast was ready and Natalie had still not come up, I decided to check on her. As I approached the bathroom, I heard sobs coming from within.

“Baby, are you okay?”

She just cried more.

“Can I come in?”

“Okay,” her trembling voice answered.

I could see her gorgeous body shaking through the clear shower door. I grabbed the towel off the rack, opened the door, and took her by the hand. Stepping out of the shower, I wrapped both the towel and my arms around her. Continuing to cry, she choked out, “I’m sorry.”

“Shh. There’s nothing to be sorry about. It’s only natural for you to be sad.”

“I just miss her, Mac. So much.”

“I know, baby, I know.”

Review

I actually just finished reviewing The Killer Next Door Series of Carlie Sexton’s, so I just dove right in.  This book is a spin off of The Killer Next Door books and it is Mac’s and Natalie’s story.  Let me tell you right now, I LOVED this story!  It had it all; drunken Las Vegas marriages, smokin hot sex, scheming asshole ex’s, and tons of angst.  This book moved along at a much quicker pace than Carlie’s previous books.  I really enjoyed that aspect.  I really felt like the writing was just more comfortable.

The sex was totally off the charts hot in this book and Mac was even hotter.  Seriously!  Mac Carter is every girls dream man.  Sexy, kind, romantic, patient, and alpha!  Did I say patient?  He was wayyy too hella patient , if you ask me.  Even Natalie was having wet dreams about him.  I waited the whole damn book ,practically, for a hot sex scene.  All the heavy petting, dry humping, and kissing had me a damn hot mess.  Whew and when they finally got it on….well….

It was good for me.  Was it good for you?

It was really, really good, I mean.

The only thing that I wished were different is that Carlie had written a point of view for Cassie.  I am just being picky because I think she writes an awesome sociopath and wackadoodle Cassie had the potential to be a bigger part of the story.  I liked this book even better than The Killer Next Door Series.  This book felt more put together and polished, I think.  I feel Carlie’s writing is only getting better and better.  I cannot wait to see what comes next.  4 out of 5 smooches, lady!
