"Tart" [The Delicious Series, Book 2] by Lauren Dane
Expected Publication Released Date: November 6, 2012

Author's Book Description:

USA Today bestselling author Lauren Dane serves up a sweet, sensual, and hot-to-the-touch novel in which one woman’s most intimate desires are stirred by two very special ingredients

Juliet Lamprey is having the time of her life running her successful bakery, TART, when Gideon Carter comes back into her life. Returning home to help his grandfather run the family on the farm, Gideon is back for good. When they meet again, the spark between them is immediate, and it isn’t long before the former childhood friends play catch up in bed.

That’s not good news for local lawyer Cal Whaley. Though the sexually open but strictly monogamous Cal has loved Jules for a long time, he’s hardly ever taken it further than friendship. When he sees her start to fall for Gideon, he knows he has to make his move or risk losing her forever.

Who would have anticipated that all three of them would connect on such an intimate level? The trio’s scalding liaisons take them places they’ve never dreamed. But such an intensely passionate and unusual relationship comes with equally as complicated emotions, and when Jules must suddenly leave town, she wonders if she’ll have a choice to make when she returns.

Made the Grade: The Paradise Diaries Series, Book 1

"Dante's Girl" [The Paradise Diaries Series, Book 1] by Courtney Cole

My Book Summary : While on her way to her annual summer trip to stay with her father in London, Reece runs into/meets Dante who’s on his way to London too. He's the handsome and sophisticated son of the Prime Minister of Caberra, an island near Greece. What neither of them expects is that while they are slowly getting to know each other on the plane a freak volcanic eruption would change their lives, and having Dante ask Reece to follow him back to Caberra with him...

Now on Caberra, Reece feels like she sticks out like a sore thumb while staying at the Old Palace. Even though Dante makes sure she is entertained and sees the beautiful highlights of his wonderful paradise, it's hard to overcome the knowledge---at times---that Dante is such a big deal and comes from a different world than her, especially when he has paparazzi and a security detail following him almost everywhere. Nevertheless, with all of that Reece and Dante end up falling in love with each other. However, will love be enough to hold them together when it seems that Dante's complicated life keeps trying to tear them apart?

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars. This is a cute novel. It's about two people that are instantly drawn to each other while going through quite a few trials and tribulations so they can prove themselves to each other. Dante and Reece are so sweet together that you just can help but root for them. In addition, I loved that Dante goes through this novel by trying to stay true to himself while sticking to his duty and his father's wishes as much as possible, as it's something that doesn't often happen in young adult novels.

I can't help but wonder about what the next book in this series will bring, especially since it's all about Quinn and Mia.

I recommend this novel and series to anyone who enjoys young adult contemporary romances.

- On a side note -
When I read this novel, it wasn't edited that well, so I hope your version will be a bit better.

Book Teaser(s) :

"Here, try this," Dante instructs me, holding out a piece of crab dripping with melted butter on a small fork. I study it for a second and Dante rolls his eyes.
"Just try it," he tells me. "It's not going to bite."
I let him stick the fork in my mouth, expecting to taste a piece of Heaven, like I did when I tried the gelato.
But no.
This is most certainly not what I receive.
This isn't Heaven.
This tastes like a dead fish in my mouth, which is actually true.
I try to resist spitting it out, instead concentrating on chewing up the hateful piece of meat. Dante looks at my face and then dies laughing.
"Can I assume you don't like it?" he asks, his face lit up like a Christmas tree in his amusement. ~ within Chapter 9

I had dinner alone in my room and I haven't spoken to Dante since, even though he texted me and asked if we could talk.
I told him no.
Then he said please.
And then I considered it.
But then I didn't have to answer because he was called away to meet his father at the Old Palace. So I was granted a reprieve. But it won't last forever.
Why is being strong so freaking hard?
I rest my head against the stone tiles behind me and add more water to the huge, deep tub. And then more bubbles. Because a sad girl deserves bubbles, dang it. And my bubbles keep popping. And isn't that a great analogy for life right now? My bubbles keep getting popped.
Sigh. ~ within Chapter 20

"Wrong Bed, Right Guy" by Katee Robert

My Book Summary : Elle is a sweet and straitlaced art gallery coordinator who is thinks she's found her Mr. Right. Her boss Nathan is the one, even though he doesn't make her completely hot and bothered they are the perfect match in every other way, if only he would ask her out. Yet even with her no-so-blatant hints, he still hasn't. So, when Nathan informs her that he's going to be creating a new art piece that day Elle knows he'll be spending the night in the loft above the gallery so she plans to seduce him that night!

However, even with the best laid plans .... some things can always turn array. Especially when Elle finds that, the man she is seducing isn't Nathan at all but his bad boy brother!!!

Gabe never expected to have a night visitor while staying in his brother's loft but he isn't complaining either. However, once Elle realizes that he's not Nathan and takes off, Gabe plans on doing everything in his power to prove to her that even though he's a "bad boy" he wants to be her hero too.

Has the "country corn princess" finally met her perfect match or is this the beginning of another dating disaster?

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars, this is a steamy story about finding that Mr. Right and being able to trust with your whole heart! I LOVED GABE!!! He is a bad boy looking for his perfect match and when he unexpectedly gets her in the middle of the night, he does everything he can to keep her and win her heart! Elle and Gabe's chemistry and budding romance leaps off the pages of this novel! They make a great pair!!

My only problem with this novel is that while I liked Elle when she was with Gabe. I really hated her when she was having problems with him. And NO, it's not because of my crush on Gabe. My issues with Elle were because of the way she handles the situations they get into together and how she always seems to blame him, or look down her nose at him, before thinking things through and making smart decisions about what is happening to her.

With that being said, if the novel were changed then it wouldn't have been as good as it was. In addition, I do understand where Elle gets all of her insecurities. Therefore, I'm not really surprised that Elle did and said the things she did. I just wish she did things differently. Additionally, I LOVED the ending and I hope to see/read more about Elle & Gabe when book 2 of this series comes out!

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and I would recommend it to anyone who likes contemporary romances that have a little erotica in them.

Author's Series Extras : In which I haz a newsletter and...well...NEWS!

Book Teaser(s) :

She might not be a porn star by night, or racy, or a wild child, but Elle had a lot going for her. Just because he didn’t see it didn’t mean someone else wouldn’t—someone like Nathan. Except she hadn’t seduced Nathan. She’d sneaked into bed with his brother.
Maybe she should just give up on men and join a nunnery.
“What is going on in that head of yours that’s putting a frown on your face?”
“I’d make a terrible nun.”
She hadn’t meant to say that out loud, darn it. ~ within Chapter 5

“Let me help you.”
“I’m fine.” Elle shoved past him and marched toward the store. “You’re acting insane.”
“And you didn’t look for cars. What if you got hit?” Christ, he sounded like a mother hen.
Apparently Elle thought the same thing. “Thanks, Mom, but I’m a grown-up. I have no intention of throwing myself in front of a car.” She hurried inside, but Gabe could have sworn he heard her mutter, “But I might if you don’t stop nagging me.” ~ within Chapter 10

Feasted On: The Booby Trap by Anne Browning Walker

- This is an ARC book - Available Formats through Amazon.com: Paperback - Pages: 257 | Expected Release Date: September 1, 2012 | Publisher: Pixel Entertainment | Obtained: NetGalley

"The Booby Trap" by Anne Browning Walker

My Book Summary : Bambi has always been a looker. It is hard not to be when you are blonde and built like a pin-up. However, now at the age of 27-years-old she's using her looks to her own advantage by working at The Booby Trap, a Hooters knockoff type of sports bar. Bambi plans to use the first-hand knowledge she gains at the bar and that of her co-workers to put together her dissertation for her Ph.D. she's getting through Harvard on woman's studies.

Nevertheless, she doesn't expect the complication of Trip Whitley, the rich and handsome local celebrity, to come into her life...

While at a bachelor party for his best friend at The Booby Trap, Trip meets Bambi. He is in a foul mood because he father has just informed him that more of his personal life is going to be taken over by the family business and he takes it out on Bambi. Therefore, their meeting was definitely NOT a love at first sight connection. Yet he soon believes Bambi would be the perfect person to play the role of his girlfriend, since he assumes her to be just a sexy airhead, as a way to get back at his father who put him in this position. With that decision made Trip proposes his idea to Bambi, offers to pay her to be his girlfriend, and she accepts but has plans of her own to twist the tables on Trip. However, once they get closer and get to know each other better will their feelings grow into something more or will Bambi still go through with her scheme? If Bambi follows through with her plans, will she be blowing a good thing or will she be performing a well deserved revenge?

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars!!! Showing off a little more then you, want too might end up helping out in the long run. Join Trip and Bambi as they discover how a misconception of who you are can really change your life...sometimes all for the better!

About the Characters:
• Bambi: Hates her name. Not close to her mother. Is a Harvard Ph.D. candidate. Beautiful with a pin-up body. Very smart. Would like to complete her dissertation. Her main goal is to go to the Annual Women's Studies Conference located in London, England that year.

• Trip: Perpetual bachelor who has had his heart stomped on before. Is informed that he needs to get into a committed relationship to improve the company's image. Chooses Bambi as the one to "help" his image, yet that decision backfires in more ways than one. Doesn't like Elizabeth.

• Trip's parents: Successful. Snobbish. Loves their son.

• Elizabeth: From the company's marketing firm. Hopes to pull one over on Trip without hurting the company's image.

• Connie: Trip's ex-girlfriend whom he dated in high school. Still has a thing for Trip.

• Pat: Trip's best friend, who helps guide him throughout the novel.

Together Trip and Bambi made an unstoppable duo that I could not get enough of!! I just wish there was more to the novel from where did they go from the ending to what happened with Trip's parents with Bambi and Connie?? Stupid little questions that never get answered, but in most ways they don't need too. This novel is a definite keeper!

I recommend it to anyone who enjoys woman's romantic fiction!!

Book Teaser(s) :

"How'd you know my name? And why don't I know yours?"
"Why, of course I know you," the waitress batted her eyes. If Trip didn't know better, he'd think she was playing him. "You're Trip Whitley, from all those ads. And even cuter in person."
"But what's your name?"
"Silly, you must know what it is. It's been right here all night." She tapped her name tag. "Bambi."
"Oh," Trip snorted. Now he knew he was being played. ~ within Chapter 2

"It's going to be fine, right?" she asked once her friend picked up. "He's cooled down some, right?"
"Some," Elizabeth didn't seem entirely convinced, which wreaked havoc on Bambi's nerves.
"Oh God."
"Don't worry." Bambi heard Elizabeth's tone change from one of worry to her typical confidence. "It will be great."
Bambi heard the door buzz. "That's him. I gotta go. Wish me luck."
"Good luck," Elizabeth said. ~ within Chapter 11
