"A Happily Ever After of Her Own" [Ever After Series, Book 1] by Nadia Lee (aka Angelle Trieste)

My Book Summary : For as long as Melinda has known she's been able to flit in and out of fairy tales, whenever her imagination gets the best of her. However, this is the first time that she's made it into a fairy tale, this time "Beauty and the Beast," and has been caught by the character's themselves, let alone been charged and accused of vandalism/thievery/possible murder--none of which she actually did--because of Beauty going missing. Now Melinda, with the help of the Beast (Edward), needs to rescue Beauty from the Evil Witch within the next three days or everything in her life will be changed ... forever!

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars!! This sweetly, romantic, lighthearted novella is one that will keep you entertained while you find out another side to the Beast! I really liked the enchantingly humorous banter that Melinda and Edward partake in, as it made me like them even more. Together they seemed to fit each other perfectly, especially after what Edward informs Melinda about his relationship with Beauty.

However, my favorite character was the Evil Witch, she was just so blunt in how she feels about everything that I couldn't help but enjoy her scenes. =0)

My only wish is that this novella had an epilogue so I could find out what happened after Melinda found her happily ever after.

I recommend this novella and series to anyone who enjoys new takes on fairy tale classics!

Book Teaser(s) :

“This is very real, and I’m not going anywhere until you help me find Beauty and my dear aunt.”
“Your aunt?”
“Didn’t you know? The Evil Witch is my aunt.”
“No wonder you’re so charming.”
Edward made a face. “Good Lord no. Don’t confuse me with Charming.”
“Huh?”
“He’s my annoying twin.”
A mild headache began knocking inside Melinda’s temples. “Identical?”
“Technically. But of course I’m the more handsome.” It was just her luck. All the good-looking men she met were either married, gay or in touch with their inner Narcissus. She wanted to bang her head into her pillows—never against the wall because it would hurt too much. “What a huge mistake.”
“Indeed. You should’ve stayed in your world, so my aunt couldn’t have escaped. Your inconsiderate and foolhardy actions have caused all of us many problems.”
“Not that.” She glared at him. “I should never have complained about your looks. Then you would’ve stayed a Beast.” ~ within the chapter titled 'II. In Which Our Heroine Gets an Unwelcome Companion'

Edward said, “I knew she would steal it.”
“Sorry.”
“Now, children. I didn’t steal it. I just took it.”
That had to be some kind of family motto. ~ within the chapter titled 'VIII. In Which the Beast Is Doubly Cursed'

"Craving More" [Tiger Nip Series, Book 1] by Brandy Walker

My Book Summary : Jett has recently become enamored with the cupcakes that have been showing up at his office, especially after he realizes that the baker happens to be his college roommate's twin sister, Corrine. Determined to find out where this attraction could lead to, Jett pursues Corrine a bit relentlessly. However, quickly into their courtship they have to deal with a protective brother, a psycho ex-girlfriend, and a best friend who is dealing with her own set of issues. Will everything else come between them for good or will they find a way to overcome everything and be together forever?

My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. This novella is more suspenseful then I expected, from the way you can never guess what Jett and Corrine will decide about their love lives next to trying to understand all of the other secondary plots that come along, it'll definitely keep you on your toes.

Even though I liked Corrine and Jett as a match up, I really didn't like how wishy-washy they were about their own feelings when it came to each other. I especially didn't enjoy how it took them until the very end of the book to officially claim each other. Basically, I'm saying I was very disappointed in them as characters.

Nevertheless, the reason I didn't give this novella a lower rating because of Jett and Corrine was because I really liked the potential I saw in this book when it came to the secondary storylines and how they build you up for what seems to be a entertaining book 2!

Therefore, I recommend this series to anyone who enjoys paranormal erotic romances!

Flopping on the bed she snatched up her phone and speed dialed MJ, who picked up on the first ring.
“Please tell me you need me home right this minute . That there’s some emergency you can’t handle on your own,” MJ rushed out.
“Hey, to you too. I take it things aren’t going well there.” Corrine couldn’t help the light chuckle that came out. Just hearing her friend’s voice relaxed her more than she knew she needed.
“Oh my god, it’s even worse than I thought and no one is listening to me at all. They think I’m acting childish and should be grateful they’re doing this for me.” MJ released a sound of disgust. “I’m to the point I’m about to tell them I’m a lesbian and you’re my lover.”
Corrine couldn’t help, but fall into a fit of laughter. It wouldn’t be the first time someone thought that about them.
“Stop laughing, Rini. This is horrible. Plus, you would be lucky to have me as your undercover lover.”
They both giggled and some of the tension Corrine felt coming over the line, died away. ~ within Chapter 6

Author's Book Description : The halfling Seraphina is a ranger in the Tesseraen Imperial Army and is expecting to get a big promotion when she discovers an enemy kingdoms secret military base hidden in the Empire's borderlands.

But while scouting the enemy camp, the halfling gets a big dose of a perverted general's lust inducing dreamsmoke. Can she make it safely back to her own commanders when the only thing she can think about is the burning desire between her legs.

When she encounters a malicious rival, the half-orc Bozeh, Sera hopes she can convince him to give her what she needs, but standing nearly three times her size, he may kill her in the process...

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars. This is one passionate erotica that keeps you intrigued with its suspenseful plot and humorous exploits. Plus, Bozeh and Sera were cute together, especially when it came to their mismatched ways.

I recommend it only to those who are looking for a quick erotica to read.

Book Teaser(s) :

"What's wrong, Seraphina? Did you take chill from riding wet at night?"
"Um, no I…" the halfling stuttered, and wondered what to do. What her companion mistook for fever was her entire body flushed from sexual arousal and she was actually trembling from need. "I...oh, hell--Bozeh, there was a censer burning in the commander's tent and I got a big dose of dreamsmoke, and dammit everything they say about it is true!"
Bozeh raised a bristly eyebrow and looked at Seraphina in a new light, then started to laugh.
"Dammit, Bozeh, it’s not funny," howled the halfling in protest.
"Then tell me, little one, what do you want me to do? I could give you what you want, but I'm not sure you would survive." Bozeh was nearly three times Seraphina's size, and she had no trouble deciphering what he meant. ~ within the novel as there isn't any chapters

"Savage Possession" [Temple of Luna Series, Book 1] by Moira Rogers (aka Bree & Donna)

My Book Summary : Ever since she was a young girl, Avani has been infatuated with Rais, the royal heir of their people. Now that she's a woman she finds that her infatuation has yet to lessen, instead it seems to have grown even hotter. However, will she be willing to submit for good to man who may not be willing to commit to her or fall in love with her in the end?

My Book Review : 3.5 out of 5 stars, this is a intense novella about a stubborn match up between a novice girl and a royal heir that could make them both go up in flames, one way or another.

Avani and Rais make a great match up! They suit each other so well; especially with the way, she soothes all of his hard edges. In addition, I really liked how they were able to work out a way so Rais could court Avani the way she wanted to be, it was sweet. This is one erotica that I would read again!

I recommend this novella to anyone who likes paranormal erotic romances!

"Lift your hips," she whispered, stroking a hand over the strong line of his back. "You'll be more comfortable without these."
Rais murmured a protest and reached for her. "Too much trouble. Come here."
She ignored him and tugged at the pants with both hands until he lifted just enough for her to ease them down his legs. They hit the floor a moment later, and Avani found just enough energy to ease her open gown from her arms. She let it slip from the bed before crawling back up to settle in his arms. "In case you didn't notice, the years have not made me less stubborn."
The corner of his mouth ticked up. "You don't say."
"Mm-hmm." She pressed her fingers to his chest, exploring the skin stretched taut over solid muscle with a sleepy curiosity. "Promise me that you'll let me touch you before you leave. The chains are very arousing, but you're so beautiful."
"Touching me now," he murmured, then rolled to bring her on top of him. He snagged the top edge of the turned-back sheet and pulled it over them.
"Yes, but I want you awake to enjoy it." Avani turned to rest her cheek against his chest and listened to his heartbeat slow. With the first desperate need sated he'd sleep, probably the first deep sleep he'd had in months.
And when he woke up... ~ within Chapter 1

Think, Frankie. Think.
Trying every handle and unlock button---no easy feat while handcuffed---hadn't yielded any luck, either. The hunter hadn't lied---there was no way in hell she could get out of this gas-guzzler unless he allowed it.
She kicked the window out of sheer annoyance. Though it had proved impossible to break earlier, she had to keep trying. Her foot slammed into the glass. The release of tension calmed her, and she side-kicked harder, finally leaving a solid crack, but the window refused to shatter. It had to be bulletproof.
Tomorrow. She would escape tomorrow. When the mating call had passed and she was back to her full power, she would take the bastard down. She would be in top shape. Already the knife wound and her scrapes had healed, despite the weakness associated with her mating cycle. But until then, she was stuck. Damn.
"Stupid. Handsome. Kidnapping. Psycho," she grumbled, timing a word with each blow. Cracks splintered across the glass, but it still refused to break.
"What the hell are you doing to my car?" ~ within Chapter 3

"Indelible" by Bethany Lopez

My Book Summary : Samantha's (Sam) life completely changed a little over two years ago during her sophomore year of college at a frat party, when a quick one-night stand left her pregnant and a single mother. Since then she has always been careful as to who she would bring in her life and hasn't had any serious relationships because of that.

Therefore, when Judd--motorcycle riding, sweet bad boy, and college baseball player--comes into her life, everything is thrown for a loop. There attraction is undeniable, while Judd keeps getting more and more intrigued with Sam's elusive ways.

However, once the secret of Sam's daughter comes out will Judd and Sam be able to deal with the difficulties that hit them not long afterwards or will everything break them up for good?

My Book Review : 5 out of 5 stars!! Love finds you in unexpected places and people. Judd and Sam have had to deal with hard circumstances in their lives that have made them grow up more then the typical college student would have had to put up with. Together these two made a great team, one hot couple, and a fun duo to read about! I loved this novel and I didn't want it to end, even though I was very happy with how it wrapped up!

I recommend this novel to anyone who likes contemporary new adult romances!

Author's Book Trailer :

Book Teaser(s) :

I was walking through the grocery store with Karrie, trying to pick up some quick items for her and Thomas, when all hell broke loose.
I had most of the items I needed in the cart when we passed the aisle in the grocery store that had the small crappy toys.
When I realized we were passing it, I prayed that Karrie wouldn't notice. I tried to push the cart a little faster, but it was no use.
"Mommy, want," Karrie pleaded in her little voice when she noticed the stupid toys.
I mean, seriously, what kind of sadist puts toys in the grocery store? Probably the same genius who puts the candy by the check-out counter. ~ within Chapter 9 - titled 'Samantha'

She laughed again and then walked passed me toward the door. Before she reached it, she turned and blew me a kiss, mimicking James.
I was about to do that thing where you catch the kiss in your hand, but I stopped myself, saving myself from looking like a total douche.
Instead I lifted my head in a nod, before turning and heading back the way we came. And if my step was a little lighter, and I whistled as I walked...what the fuck was wrong with that? ~ within Chapter 20 - titled 'Judd'
