Excerpt

When I hear Lo bang at the door again, I’m ready to kill her. Hoping she will go away I don’t make any moves to get up, then I hear the banging again. I slowly get up, throw on my shorts, and open the door. I’m ready to give her hell. Until I see Damon standing there.
He reaches down and grabs my right hand lifting it toward his face. My legs almost give out as I watch him insert each of my fingers into his mouth and suck on them.
“The phone wasn’t enough for me.” He backs me into my room, closing the door and locking it again. Damon steps forward and I’m now pressed against the door. “I can’t wait too long to bury my aching dick inside you. I do need to taste that beautiful fucking pussy, though.” He drops down in front of me, yanks my shorts down, and I step out of them quickly. His hands skim up my legs hooking his arms around the back of my knees. I almost fall from the lack of balance when he lifts them up and rests my legs on his shoulders.
His nose runs along my inner thigh and my body heats almost to the point of pain. Damon runs his tongue slowly up the length of my pussy stopping at my clit and sucking it into his mouth. I lift my arms above my head and grab onto the doorframe for support. In doing this I thrust myself toward him more and he groans in appreciation. His fingers join his mouth going to town on my already sensitive area. Before I know what hits me, my legs are starting to tremble in anticipation of my impending orgasm. When he pulls away from me, I whine in disappointment.
He untangles my legs from his shoulders, and stands up. As his arms come up, grab the hem of my shirt and lift it over my head. “How is it possible that I missed you so fucking much when I just saw you earlier.”
I smile, not knowing how to respond to his declaration of feelings. Damon takes my hand and leads me over to my bed, stopping just at the edge of it. My back is now to his front and I can feel his erection pressed against my ass through the thin shorts he has on. I reach behind me and hook my thumbs into his waistband and slowly lower them and myself to the floor. When I stand back up I do it slowly making sure to stick my ass out and trail it over his body.
His fingers grip my hips. “I would love to fucking cherish every inch of you but I want you too damn bad.” Before I can even think of a response, he pulls back and slams into me. “God damn perfect.”

Just As Good By Keshia Robertson ♥ Blog Tour & Review

Blurb

Evan Hermes traded in romance for pragmatism when he suggested marriage at their New Year’s Eve party to his girlfriend Kitt Preston. It was a “suggestion” which wasn’t well received by the love of his life. Though it’s taken him most of the year to figure out the perfect proposal, this time romance is front and center to obtain a yes!

Kitt has been in love with Evan ever since he asked her out during their first year of college. Tall, handsome, and a family man, Evan is the kind of person that most women would be falling over themselves to marry…but not her. Kitt is only willing to say yes to a marriage proposal that is worthy of their love and years together.

I enjoy this short story. It was packed full of fun. The story was a simple love story. Kitt and Evan love is the true love that we all look for and you see this through this short. All us females dream of having the man in our life knowing just what we dream of happening when asked that all important question, but let’s face it that not always going to happen. This was the problem Kitt was dealing with.

I love the plot to this book, so there was no fail there. What I did find that I had a hard time with was that the book was trying to put too much in this short. I would like to have seen it a little longer and the story a little longer to spread the story out and not feel so crammed together. I felt at times the story was jumping from point to point a little too fast which made the story seem crammed. I do feel that if the story was extended out a little that I would have enjoy it a lot more than I did. I’m looking forward to reading more of Keshia’s work. She has some wicked talent.

Review

I have to say that I loved every minute of the book. I was pulled in right from the start. This book has a little of everything you might want, heartbreak, suspense, heart pounding moments, fear. Very hot and emotionally charged encounters! Talk about having some really wonderful surprise in this plot!

Melodi, is a very head strong powerful girl. She knows what she wants, sets standards for herself, can she set some of them aside for the man she seems to have to have in her life.

Corban that sexy as hell man that walks in a room and cause all the women to swoon! This man is what most women would dream of! Fierce and powerful yet the most caring and wonder person to those he knows.

Hats of to Liz for an amazing book and job!!!

I’m beyond excited to read the next book in this series!

Excerpt

A huge playful smile swipes across his face, which sets my chest racing.
“I’m sure you will be fine. Anyway, Melodi, I would love to stay and get to
know you a little better, but unfortunately, I have a meeting in about twenty
minutes, which I probably shouldn’t be late for.” He reaches his hand out like
he is about to shake my hand. You’re
seriously not just going to shake my hand!

Surprising me for the second time, he takes my hand, placing a gentle
kiss across my knuckles, and then pulls me close, pressing his lips to mine. I
taste him; boy, he tastes good. It’s nothing like our kiss the other night.
This is more…more sensual.

Savouring the moment, until his cologne drifting around me drives me
crazy, igniting a raging fire within me. My arms wrap around his neck, pulling
him closer to me. Our kiss becomes more heated.

I remember we are standing in the middle of the footpath when a car goes
past blasting its horn. I’m not sure if it’s at us or something else. I slowly
pull away, placing one more gentle kiss to his warm lips. Mine already ache
from the loss. We stay where we are, holding each other, neither of us wanting
to move.

His eyes blaze brighter; I
can even see a sparkle. Leaning into me, he whispers, “Until next time, my
sweet Melodi.” Feeling his breath on my cheek sends goose bumps over my entire
body.

✦✦ About the Author✦✦

I am Amy Lynn Garcia, daughter, sister, cousin, mother, nurse, grandma…no..no…call me Mimi I’m too young to be a grandma, writer and friend. We are all something to someone, and I love all the hats I wear in my life. I was born in 1969 which is where I lay blame to my compulsion to write erotica and romance, wink. That makes me…uh…yea 45, no way really? My mind is still very young but not naïve I’ve seen a lot and experienced more, you may think I don’t know what’s going on but be assured this Mama knows what’s up! I enjoy creating characters that have something people can relate to, who are real, addictive and intriguing. Love has always been a desire just out of my reach, as it is for many people. I believe that is what draws me into stories with superb happily ever afters. I want to connect with people on that level, let them know they aren’t alone, that love can triumph over all, we all long for that special one that takes our breath away.

My Biography simply put is this, I am a mother of 5 daughters, born and raised in Iowa, and no I don’t see farm animals on a daily basis, just at the state fair once a year. I live in the suburbs, just a mom trying to make it and support her children. Divorced once, and another long term relationship failed as well. I feel that qualifies me to write about relationship pain and disappointment. I worked a million retail jobs, was a receptionist in many hair salons, and attended college off and on for years before I finally settled down and went to college to become a nurse. Doing things the hard way is my specialty, point proven, I waited until I had 5 young daughters, one only 6 weeks old to go back to college. I received a degree in nursing and graduated from Mercy College of Health Sciences. I specialize in antepartum nursing or as I like to call it “The Anti-Birthing Unit” where we keep premature babies in utero as long as possible. I’ve always had a calling to help people, even at the age of 5 I created hospitals in my basement and gave my baby dolls shots in the butt. As much as nursing is my career, writing is my passion. Being creative has sparked a fire within me that is now burning out of control, ideas and characters flow from my mind constantly and unfortunately, when I’m driving or mowing the grass with no pen or paper. My ultimate goal when I write is to help my reader feel something, if your heart skips a beat, if you shed a tear, connect with my characters or if you can’t wait for the next in my series, my job has been done

✦✦ Fun Facts About Myself✦✦

My favorite color is red but pink and purple will do in a pinch.

I am horrified of the dentist, I can’t stand movies with any sort of torture by extracting teeth is involved

I am seriously allergic to Beer, Sausage and Blue Cheese….not much fun at a Super Bowl party

I’m from Iowa but I’ve only seen a farm a couple of times.

I’m a registered nurse in obstetrics and I work every weekend night…again not much partying going on with me.

When I was young I was the bad kid all the parents warned their kids about, trouble followed me everywhere and if it wasn’t following I was looking for it.

I count stairs whenever I climb or descend them, I know how many steps are in every stair case I use frequently, and this would come in handy if I’m ever blind or in a power outage.

I hate to cook and therefore suck at it, ask my five kids they will agree.

Before I wrote Dark Kiss I hated even writing on a birthday card, I guess it’s the subject matter that drives me.

My favorite flowers are lilacs, I think they are considered flowers right? I love to sit outside and just breathe in that scent

*This story is not for the faint of heart. This is considered a Dark Romance between two people that should never happen. It contains content which may be deemed inappropriate for some readers.

First off I want to say sorry to Bonnie this review should have been up on the first it slipped through without me realizing it.

This book is not for the faint or unopened minded. It’s dark and mysterious. It going to take you place you’re not sure you really want to go. I want a book to keep me guessing, this one does this with all the twist to the plot. I had a few drawbacks with this one, nothing big; but I still enjoyed a very well written and told story. I’m looking forward to more from this one. This book has situations in it that most people will not like and judge the book completely on that. The book is a dark romance it’s not supposed to be the find love happy ending. If you enjoy a dark romance this is one you will love.

I have enjoyed every one of Bonnie’s books. She brings you into the story and keeps you there with each page.

Cover Me By Carrie Elliot ♥ Blog Tour & 4 Star Review

Derek Bast, always has the final say. In business and in his personal life, things are done his way, or not at all. So when a scathing review of his new band is published in The Scene and has his record producer second guessing his artistic choices, his band mate trying to call the shots, and Bast’s manager convinced he’s impossible to work with, it’s time to hunt down the source of his problems: Bess Halprin, reviewer for The Scene, the girl next door growing up, and his ex-best friend since senior year when she decided to hate him for no reason.

The last person Bess Halprin wants to see standing in the lobby of The Scene is Derek Bast. Unfortunately, she can’t deny that the last nine years look damn good on him. She expected to hate him. She didn’t expect the way he can still tug at her emotions, or the way his kiss—and his hands—set her on fire. Bess should’ve kept her distance, because Bast was right when he guessed her review was written for revenge. The problem is, to this day he has no idea what he did—how he screwed her over their senior year. The bigger problem? She’s giving him the opportunity to do it again, because she never could resist him.

When circumstances bring them both home to Santa Cruz, Bast earns his way into the heart of the girl next door, but when they return to L.A. and real life rushes in, will he be able to keep her this time or are the mistakes in their past destined to be repeated?

When I first started this one I really didn’t think it was going to be one that really grab me, boy was I wrong. So many emotions with this read. It took me a few chapters to really be pulled in the story plot. This being said I’m pretty picky when it comes to books I chose to read. The book is very well written and there is not much of a down time with the book. So much goes on in this read that your keep on the edge just waiting to know what happens next.

You have two very strong head people; they have put walls up to protect them from different issues that have come up. This is one very intense roller coaster ride with no stops! Childhood friends they are pulled apart by one mistake that has led to others but end up getting back in touch by a review that is done. Derek is hot head and gets what he wants. Bess is a no holds bar when it come to her work as a report but when it comes to her ex-best friend she can’t seem to tell him what he did to make her hate him, and so we find them knocking heads when Bess review of Derek’s band comes out!

Looking forward to more from Derek and Bess!!!

My eyes roamed over his face, following the line of his eyebrow to his temple, down to his prominent cheekbone to his straight nose then over his full, beautiful lips that could be so gentle and so demanding at the same time. The lips that always spoke what was on his mind and never held back. “If only you did know me better, then you’d know that wasn’t what broke my trust in you. But maybe you wouldn’t have done it in the first place if you’d have thought about my feelings at all.”

He kissed my hand and spoke against my fingers. “What if I did think about your feelings, but got it wrong. You said I didn’t know you, so I might have done something I thought you would be okay with.”

I shook my head. “No. If that was true, you’re not the kind of person I should be here with right now.”

He held my hand more firmly. “So, if I was selfish and didn’t consider your feelings at all, it would be better than thinking you’d be okay with whatever horrible thing I did?”

“Are we going in circles? It sounds like we’re talking in circles.” Derek had the gift of gab and I had to be careful he didn’t talk his way out of this.

“Bess, whatever it was that I did, I’m so sorry. I apologize. But, I do know you well enough to know you won’t accept my apology without me realizing what I’m saying I’m sorry for. Correct?”

“Yes. And no, I won’t tell you. I know you well enough to know that if you think about it long enough, it’ll finally come to you.”

“Well, I know that you know that I know that—wait. We are going in circles.” He grinned and kissed my hand again. “Just know I can’t think of anything else and when it comes to me, I’ll be down on my knees begging forgiveness.”

We lay there for the longest time looking into each other’s eyes, listening to the ocean and the sound of our breathing in sync. My fingers itched to touch him, to trace over his arms, his chest, along his stomach, hold his hard cock in my hand again. I could almost hear his thoughts mirroring mine, wanting to touch and taste, caress and seek release.

Our hands were the only parts of us touching and I was so turned on my body hummed like a live wire. If the wind blew too hard, I’d explode. I could hear a slight hitch in my breathing. He had to hear it too.

“Don’t look down,” he whispered, his addictive lips so close I could feel each word against my own.

“Why?”

“I can’t help what’s happening in my head or my pants and don’t want something else to apologize for.”

I grinned and looked down. “I think you’re growing a tree in there.” God, he was well endowed.

“That explains why it feels like something’s about to break ground,” he said through gritted teeth.

My eyes found his again. The air between us hung heavy and dense with tension. “What’s on the A.P. friendship syllabus regarding this situation?”

He lifted our joined hands and ran his index finger over my lips. “You write the syllabus. I’m only here for the coursework.”

Not able to stand it one more second, I leaned in and brushed my lips to his. “It’s never only anything with you.”

I indulged with my lips and my tongue, rolling him to his back before making my way down his body to the hard, long gift in his trunks.

Shattered Innocence By Alexis Noelle ♥ Release Blitz & 5 Star Review

Synopsis

Growing up poor and with a set of parents who couldn’t care less about her, Jessica Evans was on her own. She knew she wanted better and was determined to make it through college. Her only problem was that she was broke, and college was expensive. That’s when she was introduced to the world of depravity and scandal that she currently resides in. Damon Shaw has just been assigned to take over the day-to-day operations of the escort service where he’s has been working for almost five years. He immediately bumps heads with the sexy and stubborn Jessica. Damon is determined to show Jessica who is in control and make her follow his every instruction. When the two get together, sparks begin to fly. Jessica and Damon will challenge and enrage each other at every turn. The sting of words and the temptation of seduction are ever present between them. Damon is not at all what he seems. When all hell breaks loose, will Damon and Jessica make it or will she send him packing?

  Shattered Innocence is for mature audiences only—strong language, and explicit sexual content are apparent.

I was blown away by this book within the first chapter! I was extremely surprised by how much I fell in love with this book and Alexis’s writing style. I have been pulled in to a book and loved it many times but I refused to put this book down!

Jess is a very strong person that has pulled herself through life by her own will and strength. She does what she has to in order to make it. She is broke but refuses to give up on her dream!

Damon wow let’s see hot sexy and very mysterious. He come in expecting to take charge and not have anyone challenge him, little does he know Jess is going to be the one to do just that! She gives him a run for his money! But there is something that you’re going to always be happy with Damon that mysterious and closed off side of him is going to pull at some feeling that are not always good!

Best of all I fall for the hugest twist and cliffhanger ever! When and book has been yelling you can’t stop there you know it a Good One!!!
