Sinfully Addictive!!! Yes, I think that about sums up my sentiments on The Sin Trilogy by Georgia Cates. I practically devoured reading Necessary Sin and The Next Sin in one sitting and I loved every moment of it. If you are looking for a hot new sexy, raw, suspenseful romance book that will have your kindles heating up then look no further than The Sin Trilogy. Georgia Cates has truly outdone herself with her wicked and spellbinding storytelling and writing.

#TheNextSin

Revenge. Love, Sacrifices. Family. Brotherhood. Loyalty. Marriage. Friendship. Yes, all those comes into play as bonds are tested in The Next Sin. Picking where it last off, the truth of Bleu’s real identity is revealed and she is back home in Tennessee with her sister and father. With her cover blown, she is now in hiding but what she fails to notice is that she has a target on her back. A hit has been ordered by Abram. And so Sin decides the only option to protect the woman he loves is to make her a Breckenridge for good. That’s right, Sin marries Bleu and makes her his wife. They thought their problems will be all resolved now with The Fellowship but wedded bliss didn’t last long as more trouble begins to emerge in the brotherhood. Loyalty and possible double-crossing begins to take place within the organization and to top it off, fertility issues begins to add stress on Bleu and Sin’s relationship. Now that Bleu is part of this organization, her hunt to find the real murderer of her mother intensifies. With Bleu’s need to find the killer, she puts her life in jeopardy. And with a new crime family seeking revenge on Sin, comes a whole new set of vengeance and danger on The Fellowship. So what awaits for Sin and Bleu as danger and threatens their well-being and safety?

Simply, go read The Next Sin by Georgia Cates. This book was everything I could want in a romantic suspense book. It had sex, murder, revenge, death, brotherhood, and suspense all integrated into the storyline. Each element was flawlessly incorporated into the storyline providing added substance to make the emotions and suspense more raw and realistic for Bleu and Sin. Their relationship instantly captivates me because they are two dominant characters who must learn to lean on each other for support. Bleu and Sin truly showcased the meaning of love, trust, and sacrifices and so I am immediately drawn to their strong connection and bond. This second installment, will definitely have you begging Ms. Cate for more Bleu and Sin. I am anxiously awaiting to get my hands on the final book as I await to find out what becomes of Bleu, Sin, and the brotherhood.

Where The Road Takes Me by Jay McLean was breathtakingly beautiful. I am just in awe on how much I loved this book. Honestly, I will never look at red pens the same again.

It is a story that took my heart, broke my heart, tore it into pieces, and then slowly taped it back together.

#JayMclean

I honestly don’t want to say much in this review because this book needs to be experienced. Where The Road Takes Me is a story that makes you really reflect on your life. We all know that life is not perfect. It is not black and white. Life is about choices. And sometimes there are things in life we can’t control like sickness and death. But in life the one red ink that everyone tries to attain is LOVE. A love that is so pure, honest, and real. A love that gives you HOPE. A love that HEALS. A love worth experiencing. A love that is unforgettable. And the best kind of love is a LOVE that is UNEXPECTED. Ms. McLean takes her readers on a journey of friendship, healing, forgiveness, love and life. So if you are looking for a book that will make you FEEL then this book is for you. This is not your typical romance story..This is a story of finding LOVE, HOPE, and LIVING. A story that reminds us WE ALL NEED RED-LETTER DAYS!!!!

☆☆☆☆ 4.5 ☆☆☆☆

{This marriage of convenience has one rule: absolutely no falling in love. }

Xavier and Kalli have been dancing around their feelings for each other for years. Each have yearned for each other for more than a decade. Xavier life is complicated and that complication he didn’t want to bring into Kalli’s life. What he doesn’t know is Kalli welcomes the life that she would have with Xavier and everything that goes with him. To Kalli the baggage and complications are not that at all, to her their blessings. She loves Xavier and she will do anything to make him see that they belong together, even marrying him out of convenience.

Will their relationship change after the wedding?
Or will it stay at a stand still?

While Xavier goes hot and cold with his feelings and how he shows his feelings to Kalli, Kalli had been always 100% sure of what she was feeling for Xavier. But because of Xavier’s past, Kalli always stayed around waiting and hoping for Xavier to realize what he really wanted. Kalli hopes that when he does, he will realize that what he wants is.. her.

This book is full of sweet moments with Xavier and Kalli and their time together are always sweet and sexy. But that doesn’t mean it was always hot and sweet, no. At times it’s frustrating to read, where I felt like smacking Xavier on his head and make him see what he wanted was right in front of him. At the same time you can’t really hate the man, because he was just watching out for his daughter and his heart.

While this book has it’s sexy moments, keep in mind sex is very tame in this story compared to Tessa’s other books. But I love it just the same. Xavier is super sweet once he figured out what he really wanted. Another great read from Tessa.=)

*Copy provided by the author in exchanged for an honest review*

Are you ready to get your panties wet and dirtied? Well, you came to the right place. From the beginning, it had me swooning like a teenager and imagine when I got to the very end... This was one of those read that will have your heart rate go off the wall. The holy hotness, steamy scenes had me fanning myself. Oh gosh, Xavier oozes HOT SEX ON A STICK. I could go on forever...

Xavier is a single father to Lily, who is 10 years old. He is one of the best father anyone could ever ask for. Lily is his #1 priority, nothing else goes above her. But being a single father has a disadvantage when it comes to raising a daughter. He may be a good father, but every little girl growing up, specially when reaching puberty, needs a woman's help. He knows that deep down, she needs a loving mother to be around her, to guide her and teach her things he's not able to provide her. The only problem is that he has his eyes on someone that is OFF-LIMITS. Someone that he's had his eyes on, for so many years. But then again, he does not do relationships.

Kalli is one sassy lady. Doesn't really have a track record when it comes to dating. The reason for that is, her brother's best friend. She's had her eyes on him for so long that when she finally came back home to live close to her brother and his family, she makes it her mission to pursue the one and only, XAVIER. He may be her brother's best friend, but that will not stop her from what she has planned, not anymore. She wants to worm into his heart and to let him know that she is the one for him and Lily.

They end up in Vegas with all their friends and family. It was just supposed to be fun, away from home with no kids around. BUT they both end up getting married there and after all the drinks they've had, they end up having wild sex and this is the part where you will need to change your panties. You just can't stop drooling over the fact that XAVIER is one seductive sexy man. The wedding was not planned at all. Kalli is doing Xavier a favor for personal matters. The only rule is to keep the relationship platonic. Or so they say.

Tessa and her characters are uber HOT. She knows just how to get you all hot and bothered. She knows how to satisfy your cravings and will leave you wanting more. I'm a huge fan and let me tell you, she does not disappoint. This is by far one of my favorites in the series. XAVIER has made it on top of my HOT Book Boy Friends. (winks)

#Obligation

Obligation was one of those surprising unexpected reads for me that I happened to like and enjoy. In this second installment of The Underground Series, this book had drama, angst, suspense and romance all intertwined into the storyline. Though this book had drama unfolding for the hero and heroine, the main aspect that stood out for me the most was the sweetness and romance that was happening between Kai and Myla. As a reader, I couldn’t help but be drawn to the emotional and physical connection that was occurring between these two. While in the midst of danger lurking, Kai and Myla’s bond could not just be explained in words but something as a reader that you must experienced. Although there were some moments, I felt it was a bit too sweet at times, it just so happened it worked for these two. What started as a marriage of obligation blossomed into a marriage of pure love, sacrifices, and connection. Overall, this Obligation was a great addition to this series that is full of raw, grit, suspense, and romance.

★★★★★5-RISKING STARS★★★★★
*COPY PROVIDED BY AUTHOR IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW*

This story is about a hockey player who has not committed to anyone since after he had his heart broken by his high school girlfriend. Ever since then he had closed himself off. He slept with any woman who willingly offered to pleasure him from one on one or to threesome, he's the man. As for the heroine, she's a fighter and does not want anyone to pity her, she would rather deal with her own problems on her own than have someone tip toeing around her just because everyone thinks she may be fragile, due to some circumstances. You will need some Kleenex to read this book.

Garrett Samuelson, plays for the Carolina Cold Fury. It's his love of the game that give him the adrenaline. So into his career that he never misses anything that involves his hockey team. He loves sex with women and never denies what they offer BUT never takes anyone to his home. Him being a player became his reputation. All the women go GAGA for him and worships the ground he walks on. All women wants in his pants and ride him until he's satisfied. With that being said, this makes a bad taste in Olivia's mouth. The girl he met at a hockey pre-season function. The first time he laid his eyes on her long golden hair, striped amber, caramel, and dark brown hair, he was done for.

Olivia Case, works in a flower shop her best friend owns. She's one brave woman for having to go through cancer. She deals with it the best way she can. She lives her life to the fullest, but it all crumbles down when she can no longer keep the straight face, denying the agony she feels about the diagnosis. She pushes everyone away at some point because she doesn't want the people that are close to her to have to deal with the pain she will be leaving them with when that time comes. When she can no longer fight to stay alive.

I cried reading this book, going through the same, but not literally, had me bawling. I'm not sure how I would feel if I were in Olivia's shoes. Cancer runs in the family and I've seen family members who fought and is a cancer survivor. And recently just found out December 22, 2014 that my cousin has liver cancer. So, reading this just felt like I was watching a family member fight for their lives. I believe that things happen for a reason. Things aren't always what they seem. For Garrett this was a huge wake-up call to him, something that will or may change his life forever. As for Olivia, experiencing this, was a huge obstacle that may need not just one person to support her, but her entire loved ones to keep her strong. Thank you Sawyer Bennett for writing this emotionally touching story.

★★★★★ 4-Lustful Star★★★★★
*Copy provided by the author in exchange for an honest review*

This is a story about a forbidden romance between a stepbrother and a stepsister, who could not stand each other. Since the four years age difference, that makes the situation even worse. All the pent up lustful feelings held in, makes it chaotic. If you love the erotic love story, then I highly recommend it.

Oliver is a four years older than Maya. He loves to dominate in bed. Sleeps with anyone who willingly offers. Loves to play it rough between the sheet and will leave you wanting more. He's one dirty mouthed guy and will not take any non-sense from anyone. He knows what he wants and nothing will get in the way of his needs.

photo MonsterStepBrotherTsr_zps32cb6c3e.jpg

Maya has had an obsession since the day she first laid eyes on her stepbrother, who's been nothing but an A-hole to her. Oliver knows just how to push her buttons. Her obsession has driven her mad that when she is with her boyfriend, she's fantasizing that she really is with her stepbrother. Oliver loves to taunt her, push her to her limits to annoy her and let her know that he hates her. Same goes with Maya, she pretends that she cannot stand him. When in reality, she wants him, no one else but OLIVER.

Maya and Oliver embark a lustful and chaotic life. They both denied what they truly feel, that feeling of emptiness. Knowing that deep down, what's right under their noses might just fill that hole in their hearts.

#MoNsTEP

Monster Stepbrother was a book that had so much potential to be a dark taboo sexy read but this book sadly fell flat for me. I wanted to like this book a lot but I found myself not connecting to any of the characters. I love a good forbidden romance and as a big avid fan of dark romance, this book was lacking in the dark element that would pull me in. The hero, Oliver King was more like a wishy washy character who couldn't make up his mind..one minute he hates her, one minute he lusts for her, and then the next he loves her but has sex with another woman and leaves her. His constant mood-swings would give me a whiplash because one minute hes turning on the charm and making you like him and then the next, you are wondering why the sudden mood change.

Overall,this book was a quick read that had some great sexy scenes but I think I would have love to see more of a development of the characters and their past. A part of me wanted the author to delve deeper as the reasons why Maya and Oliver were drawn to each other not just that they were physically attracted to one another.

☆☆☆☆ 4 Sweet Love ☆☆☆☆

Etienne Rousseau and Kate English love story from past to present and their second chance in love.

Etienne has been known as a bad boy to everyone, especially the English family. As the nemesis of the English brothers, nothing about Etienne screams good to them. And when it comes to their cousin Kate, they are very over protective.

Kate and Etienne had a pass full of heartbreak, they were once full of love for one another. They were each others first and they dreamed of their future together. But somewhere along the way, their love was lost and they never knew why..Until they meet up again years later.

With Etienne’s family Company forcing him to work with his past love Kate, they had no choice but to get along.
Everytime they met sparks would fly, but because of their past, they turned everything into a heated argument instead.

Will Kate ever find out what exactly happened in the past? Or will they go their separate ways after the business dealings are over?

Will Etienne ever get to explain to Kate what happened in the past? Will he get the chance to redeem himself to Kate?

Read and find out.

Kate and Etienne’s story are full of love and their flashback are full of sweet moments. I’m glad Author Katy Regnery wrote this story, because it really gives Etienne a chance to redeem himself. We get to see how Etienne really is and how his not what Amy said he was. He is no way close to being a jack-a**, he is sweet and caring. I do wish that the story didn’t end so quickly. When the story ended, I was left wanting more, I need more ending. Pls write more Katy.=)

A great romantic that was captivating and characters that were easily likable and interesting to read about. Well, except for the mom who really knew how to push people's buttons. Arrogant and selfish of a mother.

The first few chapters were kind of slow and it started to pick up somewhere after chapter five. I love to settle down to a book which has romance and passion for it when it comes to which way the book is going to go and what is going to happen next, just makes you want to get to the bottom of all the chaos.

Chloe ran away and left his fiancé when she had cold feet. She was always told what to do. She's fed up with her mother demanding her of things she thinks that may be good for Chloe. Since she was a little girl, her mother always watches her figure. There's a lot of things she should eat and she couldn't do. Her mother always worried about what people might say if Chloe did something that could ruin their reputation. As for her father, he was and always had been the one to listen to what Chloe really needed in her life without thinking about what people may say if she decides to step down from the beauty pageant. I loved her father for being so caring and understanding. Letting her decide what future, she wants to pursue.

He will not let anyone come close to him that is a liar. He struggled to forget his fiancé who wanted to be well known in Hollywood. But when that didn't turn out to be what she wanted, she came back and wanted Lucas to take her back. I just want to punch her in the face and put a sock in her mouth and tell her to leave Lucas to me. (Wink)

When Lucas and Chloe meet, they lock eyes through a mirror at a bar and could not forget that moment. From that moment on, they both could not stop thinking about each other. Lucas is the son of the Veterinarian. They are to help Chloe pursue her plans to rescue pit bulls. Lucas was told by his father that he will be helping Chloe at THE GANG, it's what her mentor named the animal shelter she opened in Monterey after leaving San Diego.

Chloe is keeping secret that could very well ruin this growing relationship she has going with Lucas. How long can she keep it from him? Will it ruin their relationship when the truth comes out? Only way to found out is to read this not too tamed love story.
