Made the Grade: Vegas Nights Series, Book 3

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon: Paperback - Pages: 84; Kindle Edition - File Size: 669 KB | Expected Release Date: July 21, 2015 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing : Romance | Obtained: NetGalley

"Wild Nights" [Vegas Nights Series, Book 3] by Karen Erickson (aka Monica Murphy)

Author's Book Description : A guy of her own? She’s not holding her breath—until he steals it away.

Natalie’s girls-only weekend in Vegas is shot to hell, thanks to her friends ditching her for very sexy, very famous guys. Not that she blames them. She knows what lonely feels like. A nurse’s long hours leave little time for a social life.

Then she collides with and spills her drink all over a very fine, very exposed male chest. A chest belonging to Noah Wilde, lead singer for the infamous Wilde & Wicked rock band. Thankfully, he’s merely amused as she tries to take care of the mess she made.

Noah sure would like to make a mess of the gorgeous, petite lady with luminous blue eyes. There’s no resisting the urge to tempt her along for an adventurous night of gambling, drinking, eating, and sin.

But during the harsh light of day, Noah has a change of heart. Not about the fact he likes Natalie—a lot. He’s not sure he wants to drag this sweet lady through his sordid life. Even though sparing her could cost them both a chance at forever.

Product Warnings: Contains a nurse who thought she knew all there was to know about anatomy, and a rock god who’s about to show her a few spots she missed. To say they both hit the jackpot would be an understatement.

My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. Looking to take a little brake Natalie (Nat) took a weekend vacation to Las Vegas with her two best friends for a girls getaway, only to end up at an exclusive party the first night and get ditched by her friends. Yet, things start to look up after she catches the eye of Noah the lead singer of a hot rock band Wilde & Wicked. Sparks fly and soon what was meant to be a just a wild weekend turns into something a whole lot more … but is the infatuation all one-sided?

Steamy and sweet. This quick read leaves you wanting more but satisfied with the sweet way it all wraps up. I recommend it to those looking for a steamy rockstar romance novella!

Natalie kept him on his toes. She said whatever was on her mind, she got mad at him when chicks rarely did, plus she was so incredibly responsive. She was fucking perfect for him.
So perfect it was almost scary. ~ within Chapter 7

Feasted On: Best Intentions [A Ghost Cats Story] by Mandy M. Roth

Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 342 KB | Release Date: July 2010 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing

"Best Intentions" [A Ghost Cats Story] by Mandy M. Roth

My Book Summary : All Lillian (Lily) is looking for is a one night stand. She plans on renting a cabin at this establishment she heard her friend mention before, get a room, and hook up with a man for the weekend ... with no strings attached. However, she never expected to find a man like Brayen (Bray), a man who she was attracted to like no other and someone who she might just want to spend more then one night with.

Humans aren't usually able to see his bar and motel from the road, so when Bray sees this sexy human come into his office asking for a cabin to rent for the night he is thrown for a loop. Especially when he starts feeling drawn to her like never before, and even though he knows that he shouldn't let himself get involved with her there is no way he able to keep himself away from her for long.

But by the time the night is over, will Lily still plan that this is only a weekend fling or can Bray convince her that she is the love of his life before it's too late?

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars! The storyline was great! For having it be such a short novel it definitely plays out well, and has surprises you would have first thought in there too. Plus it doesn't hurt that the characters are great to read about, I loved them all ... well except Lewis as he was a jackass. But anyway I hope you'll like this book as much as I did if not more!!

Book Teaser(s) :

"So you're alone?"
Her gaze darted away and her scent changed. She was hiding something or someone. Brayen leaned forward, his hand skating up her arm, making her shiver. "There isn't anyone else, is there?
Her dark eyes widened and her pulse quickened. "W-what?"
"Do you," he stressed, "have someone else at home? A boyfriend maybe?"
She used her free hand to rub her ear as she took a deep breath. "No." ~ within Chapter 2

"Waiting On" Wednesday: Artistic Vision

Today's "Waiting On" Wednesday by Jill - click here

"Artistic Vision" [The Gray Court Series, Book 3] by Dana Marie Bell
Publication Released Date: November 22, 2011

Samhain Publishing's Book Description:

Desire is the raw material. Lust is the spark…and love will sculpt their destiny.

Akane Russo, one of the Hob’s top Blades, can’t wait for her current assignment to end. She’s been tasked with protecting Shane Dunne from the Malmayne clan’s scheme to kidnap him once again. But no one—not even her Seer half—warned her she’d have to protect herself from his heated gaze. Or that her dragon half would find him an irresistible puzzle.

Shane knew his destined bride would never come to him willingly, but she’s stuck with him and he plans to use her predicament to his advantage. It’s only a matter of time before she succumbs to what they both want. Their Claiming will be beautiful beyond even his wildest imaginings—and his wild, free dragoness will finally see herself as he sees her.

Then his unique, hybrid-borne visions reveal a new danger. The prophecy of the Child of Dunne can only be fulfilled down a path he must travel alone. To a place so dark and dangerous that even his truebond’s flame may not be bright enough to lead him home.

Product Warnings
Contains explicit sex, graphic language, a pissed-off dragon assassin and a smart-mouthed Nebraskan farm boy. Bet you can figure out who wins that fight! (Hint: It’s not the dragon...)

It's a hot series, so I cannot wait to read this book!!

Made the Grade: Cat Scratch Fever by Jodi Redford

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon.com: Kindle Edition - File Size: 298 KB | Expected Release Date: April 2012 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing | Obtained: Jodi Redford

"Cat Scratch Fever" by Jodi Redford

My Book Summary : Years ago, Lilly's grandfather was swindled out of a big plot of land while playing cards with Dante's father. Therefore, for a while now she has been hounding Dante to sell that plot of land back to her without any success. Nevertheless, is she willing to do just about anything to get back what rightfully belongs to her family, even if it means taking Dante's proposition?

Dante has been avoiding Lilly and her demands for years, but now with his father's mate-bond ultimatum he is in desperate need to find someone to mate with that isn't the girl his father wants, and Lilly seems to be the perfect choice. Especially with the chemistry that flies between them and with Lilly currently being in heat right now the sexual tension is flying high. However, will Dante's pack or Lilly's family allow or approve of this match between them? Will Dante & Lilly be able to keep this proposition only a business agreement between them without letting their hearts get evolved? In addition, will Lilly be able to stand up to the competition that wants to mate with Dante and have Lilly out of the picture?

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars, this sexually intense novel is entertaining with all that the drama that ensues between the main characters' budding relationship! I really enjoyed the sarcastic comments and sassy comebacks that fly between Dante and Lilly. Along with reading about the unusual type of things, Dante decides on using as foreplay items. It's really a quick but fun read that is overloaded with sex between the stubborn main characters.

I only wish it didn't end where it did, meaning, "I wish there was more!!" Since where it ends leaves a bunch of questions in the air ... Is Lilly really okay? What happened to Anna? Did Dante's father know anything about what she did? How is there relationship now? If this novel was a part of a series, then I could possibly let the unknown questions slide but since as far as I know it isn't then I wish I could have answers to my questions. However, I AM very happy with how Lilly and Dante's relationship ends up in the book it was quite charming.

I recommend this novel to everyone who's a fan of Jodi's, as well as, those who enjoy reading paranormal erotic romances!!

-- Check out Jodi's response to my questions above!! --

Book Teaser(s) :

Dante turned and watched the approach of Lilly’s SUV. Even with the distance separating them, he could clearly see the wide-eyed apprehension overtaking her face as she took in the amount of Morgans camped on his porch. He had to give her credit for not flooring it in reverse and hightailing it the fuck out of there.
Hell, it was probably what he would have done.
A weighty silence descended on the group as Lilly parked her vehicle and made the slow trek toward the porch. Dante’s gaze dipped toward her neckline, where the tag for her sweater was hanging out in plain view. She’d jumped into her clothes so fast earlier, he hadn’t noticed she’d put the sweater on backwards.
His mouth quirked, and Lilly glanced down. A groan fell from her. “Aw crap.” Her motions swift, she tugged her scarf in place to cover up her wardrobe malfunction.
Something about her obvious embarrassment stoked his protective instincts. Cupping her elbow, he pulled her close and dropped a kiss on her forehead.
The collective spell of silence that’d gripped his cousins shattered as they all began talking at once. In his typical fashion, Theo outshouted everyone else. “Holy shit, Shane wasn’t talking out of his ass.”~ within Chapter 10

Made the Grade: Cowboy Cocktail Series, Book 1

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon.com: Kindle Edition - File Size: 714 KB | Expected Release Date: August 25, 2015 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing | Obtained: NetGalley

"Cowboy Valentine" [Cowboy Cocktail Series, Book 1] by Mia Hopkins

Author's Book Description : Forget chocolate and flowers. This homegrown honey is all the sweetness he craves.

Small-town life is nothing but a waiting room for eighteen-year-old honor student Corazón Gomez. Work and school leave little time for love, but with a full-ride Ivy League scholarship and a one-way ticket out of the boondocks, who needs it?

The answer appears on Valentine’s Day when her old cowboy crush ambles into the ice cream parlor where she works, inviting her to go on a late-night ride in his truck. For the first time she wavers between staying on the straight and narrow, and going off-road with the handsome heartbreaker.

After four years working on ranches all over the country, Caleb MacKinnon is back on the family farm helping out his mom and brothers while his father fights cancer. The one bright spot: smart, funny, and wickedly sexy Cora.

From the start, they both know this blazing-hot love affair can’t last. But when autumn comes and Cora has to leave for the East Coast, Caleb must find a solution to keep himself—and his heart—from falling apart.

Product Warnings
Contains hard, cherry-poppin’ sex in a pickup truck and a cowboy charmer who talks dirty in two languages.

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars! It all begins on Valentine’s Day when Cora (Corazón) loses her virginity to her high school crush, Caleb. From that night on, they become friends and spend all their free time with one another. However, because Cora plans on going to college in the fall friends-with-benefits is the only thing that Cora wants to be but by the time she has to go away to college will being only friends be enough for either of them?

This raunchily sweet novel warms you up and leaves you with a charming ending. Caleb is one sweet talking cowboy that I would love to have flirting with me. Cora is a good girl coming into her womanhood in many ways. Together they are a sensual couple that you want to root for!

I definitely recommend this novel to those looking for a fast-paced erotic romance!

Made the Grade: That Old Black Magic Series, Book 3

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon.com: Kindle Edition - File Size: 425 KB | Release Date: September 2011 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing | Obtained: Jodi Redford

"Maximum Witch" [That Old Black Magic Series, Book 3] by Jodi Redford

My Book Summary : Willa has always been just a witch who would do anything for her friends, yet is known for her glasses and her job. Or so she thought .... Until she finds that, her life is on the line (along with the human race) and the woman who she always believed to be her Aunt (also the one who raised her) tells her otherwise. What is she to do and how will she defeat those who want to create a watery Armageddon on all humankind?

With the help of her new "underwater" friends and one deliciously handsome shark-shifter, they are about to find out.

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars, this delightfully funny, erotic, and adventurous book tells you about Willa, the secrets of her past, and the hot shark-shifter (Max) who's in her life. This book start out from where "The Seven Year Witch" left off, showing us what the consequences were for Willa when she went into the "leviathan’s domain" to help out Clarissa.

This book has plenty of funny and naughty moments going on throughout it too keep the reader going. I loved Max and how his relationship with Willa grows throughout the book. Plus, the added bonus of Willa dealing with her "nympho" ways. *hahaa*

I recommend this book to those who already enjoy the That Old Black Magic Series or Jodi's other books. Also, I recommend it to those who really like some good ol' spicy paranormal romance books. =0)

Book Teaser(s) :

“Relax. I’m just trying to check out your ass.”
She stiffened. Oh hell no. He did not just say that. “Excuse me?”
His hands stilled and he went silent for an awkward moment before he cleared his throat. “Not how I meant it to sound.” The pads of his thumbs brushed near her tailbone, hitting a tender spot that hadn’t been there before. She sucked in a sharp breath.
“Does that hurt?”
Biting her lip to stall any further whimpering, she nodded.
He swore softly. ~ within Chapter 2

“This is a really crappy time to become a gentleman.” She trailed her nails over his tensed glutes, and his pupils dilated in reaction. If he thought there was any chance in hell he wouldn’t be buried inside her within the next five seconds, he was about to be proven wrong. “Up until now, you’ve had no problem sweet talking me into sex.”
“That was before...”
“Before what?”
His fingers glided over her bottom lip. “I knew who you were.”
This was about that? “You cannot be serious.”
“Willa, when I took my oath as sheriff, I swore to protect and serve you. Not fuck you.”
“Wow, was that actually written in the speech?” ~ within Chapter 13

Made the Grade: Compass Brothers Series, Book 1

Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 319 KB | Release Date: March 2011 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing | Obtained: Amazon.com

"Northern Exposure" [Compass Brothers Series, Book 1] by Jayne Rylon & Mari Carr

My Book Summary : Lucy had always had a thing for Silas even though she was dating his best friend, Colby. The three of them had been inseparable growing up, so when Lucy finds Colby and Silas making out in the barn she's crushed thinking that they have finally found what they want in each other and no longer want her and takes off. However, Silas takes Lucy's leaving after being caught kissing Colby as her being discussed with what they were doing, so with that in mind, and since he's 18-years-old, he decides to take himself out of the equation so he won't be able to hurt his family or Colby and Lucy.

Over the next ten years, Silas is in Alaska working on risky jobs, drinking away his misery over missing his family, their ranch, and the two people he has always loved (Colby and Lucy). Then an accident happens while on the job, injuring him, and sending him back home into the care of Colby and Lucy.

Even though things have changed while Silas has been gone, the one thing that hasn't is Colby and Lucy's love and dedication to each other and their love for Silas, whom they both miss. However, once Silas gets back home will they be able to salvage the relationship they all once shared together and make it grow into something more? Or will everyone else's expectations of what is propriety get in the way of their love?

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars! This story is about the lengths people will go through to make sure they put the ones they love above all else, even if what they decide is a little misguided. I really enjoyed this story!! The sex scenes were very hot. You might need to cool yourself off afterwards! In addition, what makes this story really likeable is the plot, it might be short but it worked. I just wished it was a bit longer.

I recommend this to anyone who enjoys erotic romances.

My Previous Review(s) for Mari : Tequila Truth

Book Teaser(s) :

A series of three dings proved Seth, Sam and Sawyer waited for him to join. He selected their names from the list onscreen then entered the conference.
"You should have seen them. Smoking hot quadruplets, Sam." Silas's brother out west bragged to his twin. "Two for you, two for me."
"Sawyer Compton, what kind of trouble are you digging up now?" Vicky laughed at the horror on her youngest son's face.
"Dude, a little warning would have been nice before you tossed Mom on the line." To see the Coastie blush made Silas's day. ~ within Chapter 6

Made the Grade: Children of the Undying Series, Book 1

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon.com: Kindle Edition - File Size: 242 KB | Expected Release Date: November 29, 2011 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing | Obtained: Moira Rogers

"Demon Bait" [Children of the Undying Series, Book 1] by Moira Rogers (aka Bree & Donna)

My Book Summary : The world has changed ... the apocalypse has happened (years ago) and now demons roam the earth and most people (humans) blame it on those people who have summoner blood (magic in their blood).

Marcelle (Marci) just happens to be a summoner who has been trying to hide herself by living among humans in different underground compounds throughout most of her life. Soon she is found out during the compound's lockdown by a man who is visiting, Gabe, and says that he can protect her from the demons. Therefore, during their time together in lockdown Gabe tries to convince Marci to leave the place she's at to go to another compound that would allow her to live without fear. Only there is a catch... since he is a halfblood demon himself she would have to be marked by Gabe, which would make her vulnerable to him for the duration of their escape from the compound their in to the one they are heading to. However, will Marci be able to trust him enough to be marked by him and put her life in his hands??

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars. Adventurous, seductive, and sweet are the three words I would choose to describe this unique apocalyptic romance book!! Marci has grown up believing she has to hide who she is, even though her magic is just simmering under her skin wanting to get out. Gabe is fierce and sweet, and just the type who you'd love to be seduced by!! I could not get enough of this book!!

My only problem with this book was what happened once they were found. I mean I understand the necessity for what happened but it seemed to mess up the flow of the book for me, I guess. Otherwise, I like how the book did wrap up at the end!

I recommend this to whoever is already fans of Moira Rogers and to those who like adventurous paranormal romance books!!

Gabe sighed. “How would volunteering the information have helped? I could have let you out into the unprotected hallways and...what? Pried open another door so everyone on the other side would know I wasn’t human?”
“And ruin how hard you worked to get me stuck with you in the first place, right?”
His jaw clenched, and he looked away.
Trip didn’t. “If there’s something going on...”
“There’s not,” Gabe snapped. ~ within Chapter 5

"A Table for Three" [New York Series, Book 1] by Lainey Reese

My Book Summary : Riley has just moved to New York, starts her new job in two weeks, and plans to spend her first night in New York checking out the night scene. After she tells her cabby to take her to a club that has a mixture of celebs with the everyday people ... she finds more then she may have bargained for, but she's willing to try it out!

When Cade comes across Riley in his club, he plans to tell the "little innocent" that this isn't the right club for her, but after he first meets/sees her she meets all of his expectations in the type of girl he likes and he can't seem to turn her away. By the next morning he thinks he may have found the girl for him ... now he just has to see if his best friend, Trevor, agrees. Since Cade and Trevor have been sharing their women for years now and it soon looks like Trevor just might agree. Now all they need to do is convince Riley that this is more then a fling.

However, just when it seems that things are working out for all of them, someone from Cade and Trevor's past comes in and tries to destroy everything they have with Riley. Will that person succeed? Or will the three of them prove true love can survive anything??

My Book Review : THIS BOOK WAS A REREAD:: Then (February 2011): 3.5 out of 5 stars | Now (August 2011): 4 out of 5 stars!! This book is full of m/f/m ménage, bdsm, and steamy PDA to keep the mouth watering and your mind wandering!! It's one of those books where you learn that love can come from any type of relationship! It definitely opened my eyes ... and kept me wishing it was me instead of her at some points! =0)

These three characters you just can't get enough of!! The guys are smart, funny, and domineering ... and the girl is sweet, loving, and experimental! The plot was great and the epilogue was the perfect cherry on top!

Book Teaser(s) :

He turned his head and looked at Riley sandwiched between him and Trevor. She was wide-awake. The cell phone hadn't done it, he knew because she hadn't shifted or stretched or even moved when it rang.
"How long have you been awake, Riley?"
"Your heart beats sixty-eight times a minute," she said instead of answering. "You breathe thirteen times a minute. Trevor is seventy-two and fifteen. Only, every three minutes Trevor's breathing stutters a little, and for that minute he breaths twelve instead."
Cade stared at her, giving her his best boss stare.
"About an hour and a half." When Cade groaned she added, "I told you I was a morning person." Cade ran a weary hand over his eyes, and Trevor spoke against the back of her neck. "My breath stutters?" ~ within Chapter 8

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon.com: Kindle Edition - File Size: 211 KB | Release Date: May 2011 | Publisher: Samhain Publishing | Obtained: Moira Rogers

"Sabine" [...and the Beast Series, Book 1] by Moira Rogers (aka Bree & Donna)

My Book Summary : Ciar returns to his palace after being away at war for three years to find his love, Sabine, not there and to find that no one knows who she is, so he sets out to find her. Once he finds her, he's told that while he was away his mother, the Queen, cursed her so he would forget about her. However, the cursed backfired so now anyone who touches her or is around her for a long period of time will forget they ever knew her (even her own family).

Now, with little time to spear, Sabine & Ciar try to find a way to break the curse and bind themselves to each other before it's too late.

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars! This is a sweet, spicy, and touching story of how far a couple would go to keep each other in their lives. Sabine is a feisty character struggling to be who she is while dealing with a curse that makes her become an outsider to everyone she knew and meets. Ciar is an arrogant King now hardened by the war he was in but still missing his love desperately that he'll do anything for her.

My only problem with it is I WISH IT WAS A BIT LONGER!! However, even as I wish that .. I don't know how they could have made it any better.

I recommend this to those who like Paranormal Romance books that are a bit erotic!!

The depth of the grief that seized her was surprising. “You’re forgetting.”
“Slowly,” he said, voice firm. “But I’m making new memories too. I won’t forget all of you. I’ll never forget all of you.”
Some things shouldn’t be slow. A quick end was preferable, one slash of the executioner’s blade instead of being left to bleed and linger. “Of course.”
The growl that tore free of him sounded frustrated. “Why do you have no faith in me?”
“It isn’t---” Three years, and she didn’t know how to talk to anyone anymore, even Ciar. “You have a strong spirit, and I know you loved me. If anyone can wade through this spell, this curse, it’s you.”
“I can, and I will. Believe in me.” ~ within Chapter 3

Feasted On: Speed Series, Book 1

"See You In My Dreams" [Speed Series, Book 1] by Jess Dee

My Book Summary : Sophie just broke her job's major rule "When the guest is in the apartment you shouldn't be." So, when she walks into the bedroom of one of the apartments to clean it she is shocked gaping at the hot and sexy specimen of naked male she sees. However, in a panic of thinking she's going to lose her job she mumbles some words of apology and takes off.

Nathan is surprised to find a woman in his room, at first worried about her being one of his fans and his identity being revealed, but as soon as she takes off he realizes that he has seen her before---from his dreams---and would like nothing more then get to know her as himself and not as his ulterior persona.

As fate would have it, they do get another shot to get to know one another and they do take advantage of whatever time they have, to be with each other. Nevertheless, within that short amount of time will they be able to admit to each other their deepest secrets, the ones that could either bring them closer together---forever---or tear them apart for good.

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars!! This is a unique, spicy, and dream-worthy take on the contemporary romance genre. To which I can say I absolutely loved!! I liked how this book flows, making it so even though these two people meet and are together for a very brief amount of time they make the most of it, in a way showing that it could happen if you really took everything in effect. The main characters, Sophie & Nathan/Jamie, are great and relatable in a way that made me wish it was a longer book. Then because of the plot I'm very interested what other stories Nathan/Jamie's grandmother told his brothers to see how their stories will play out!!

I recommend this book to everyone who likes HOT erotic contemporary romances with a little touch of fantasy thrown in!! =0)

Book Teaser(s) :

His lips sipped from hers, his tongue tantalized her senses, and his hand continued to delight.
"What are you doing to me?" Sophie drew back for air, and then echoed his question from earlier. "What have you done to me?"
"Nothing more than you're doing to me." He claimed her mouth once again. ~ within Chapter 3

"It's a damn pity you live in Sydney."
Sophie frowned. "It's a damn pity you don't." More than a pity. It was enough to break her heart--if she let it.
Ridiculous really, that after just two days of knowing him she already felt such a deep emotional attachment. ~ within Chapter 6
