The Kenna & Sloan's story

A heartbreaking story about two broken souls finding and saving each other.

Kenna and Sloan met when Keena was just 16 and Sloan was 24, that was also the day Keena fell in love with him. Their attraction for each other was electric, but Sloan knew that Kenna was too young for him..so he stayed away. For years they danced around each other, but kept their friendship. When Keena was old enough, she made sure that Sloan knew how much she loved him. And every time she said those three words, Sloan always replied with “I know”. That was the best thing he could do, no mattered how much he loved her, he could never let her know. With Sloan’s past hanging over his shoulder, he never wanted to give all of himself to Keena knowing he could never give her everything she deserved. So he decided being her friend, was best.

No matter how much they shared with each other, Sloan never wanted to pass the line with Keena. No matter how much Keena made clear that she wanted to lose her virginity with Sloan, he never wanted to take advantage of her. Yes, after years of being with each other, all they did was kiss and every day they shared with each other Keena always made sure to take a selfie of their time together to send to Sloan after he leaves. So they would never forget how much their time meant to her. And every time he receives each and every picture, he knew how much she meant to him. And how he wishes that he could be the man she deserves, but with his past and future hanging over him he knew they could never be.

The night when Sloan finally gave Kenna want she wanted, it was the happiest moment of Kenna’s life. And it should have been Sloan, but instead of enjoying that moment he left when Kenna fell asleep, like he always did. When things get tough and too close to his heart, that’s what he does… he runs. Then Kenna is always left to pick up the pieces of her heart.

When Kenna fell prey to the evil that is Marcus Xavier, she went through the most horrific and heartbreaking things and you can’t help but hope that Sloan will find her quick.

When Sloan finally saves her, will he finally give in to the love he feels for her?
Will Kenna forgive him for all the heartbreak that he put her through?
Will she blame Sloan for what happened to her?
Will their love be strong enough for them to survive everything they both went through?

Read and find out.

This is a long heart breaking story about love and lost. At times you just want to smack some sense into Sloan to wake up and love Kenna as she deserves. I really love Kenna’s character, she knew what she wanted way in the beginning and she fought for everything to get what she deserves. She is a very strong character and doesn’t waver in what she wants. She always knew and stays with what she knows and wants. She never gave up on what she wanted. She is very strong, even when it seems like all hope was lost, she never gave up.

Thx for sharing your book with me DL Raver! =)

A Desperate Man by Ella Frank
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Ella Frank...that name alone is an instant MUST click for me. When I found out Ms. Frank is going to be co-authoring a book with new author, Brooke Blaine, lets just say that I was so ready to get my hands on this book. Like the title I was desperate and I knew this book was going to be one hot sexy dirty read and these two authors did not disappoint their fans.



First and foremost, if you are expecting a typical romance then I’m sorry to say this book does not have it yet. I don’t know even how to describe this book because this book is unlike any other stories that I have read so far. What makes it different is the hero of the book. And as for the heroine, she’s not your typical wallflower who will be pushed around but instead she is strong, independent and fierce. With two different character personalities, Ms. Frank and Ms. Blaine, will have you addicted and wanting more from these characters.

Addiction: Sex
Patient: Evan James

A Desperate Man revolves on Evan James, who was once successful in the business world but suddenly hit rock bottom. As in, Evan is unemployed, no money and then to top it off he has a major sex addiction. That’s right, he’s a bonafide sex addict. He craves. needs, and wants it. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it, Evan’s addiction consumes his daily life. He is a man lost to his addiction that has monopolized his time and affected his work and life.

So when Evan finally lands a job, the woman whom he had a one night stand happens to be his boss. That one night was where they basically fucked each other’s brains out with endless amounts of orgasms. She was the one woman whom he fantasized when he was masturbating. Now temptation is staring him straight in the eyes and all he can imagine is Reagan Spencer. This forbidden temptation is haunting and effecting his work because he can’t seem to function. He wants and needs Reagan to fulfill his sexual need but she’s his boss. So what is Evan to do?



I must applaud Ella Frank and Brooke Blaine because they have me desperate for the next installment. Of course, they had to end the book in one sexy cliffhanger. So if you are looking for a book that is quite different than your normal romance, then I highly suggest you read A Desperate Man.

HOT!!! HOT!!!! HOT!!!!! Yes, I will say it again HOT!! That’s right Ms. Aurora Rose Reynolds, Justified was deliciously sexy and steamy!! I’m slapping my forehead right about now because why did it take me so long to finally read my first book from this author. How could I not I love this book? I was already hooked from the opening line from this story because Ms. Reynolds literally started this book with a bang. **pun intended** Hot sex to open up the book….why YES, I LOVE THAT!!!! Hot sexy lawyer with major ALPHA personality...LOVE!!! And HOT Scorching sex...LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! Justified can be simply described as an enjoyable HOT SEXY DIRTY READ!! It had a story line that focused on a very Alpha Lawyer who is very protective of his girlfriend and there are justifications for his worry when someone tries to harm his girlfriends. So you know what that means? Why yes, hot overprotective alpha hero, who will stop at nothing to ensure the safety of his love.



So if you are looking for a quick read that will turn the heat up your kindle then look no further because there is no other justification as to why not read JUSTIFIED by Aurora Rose Reynolds. I can’t wait for Carter’s book.

Make Me, Take Me by Amanda Usen

From the Big Easy, the French Quarter, the city that brought you ‘soul food’ and beignets, New Orleans got a little hotter when Amanda Usen turned the heat up in her newest release of Make Me, Take Me. One night of passion and raw sex was all it took for two complete strangers to be enraptured with each other. In a city known for its magical spells, this one night was all it took for sparks to fly and ignite this raw desire that was brewing between Betsy Mouton and Quinton James. Fast forward to two years later, Betsy never thought that Mr. James would be standing in front of her again and this time he will make an offer that she can’t refused. Instead of one night, he made her an offer of two weeks where they will fulfill every unadulterated passion and raw sex. Will James make Betsy see that there is a connection that was already brewing and that she can’t escaped? Will Betsy finally tell Quinton to take her?



Make Me, Take Me by Amanda Usen was a hot sexy read. Things were not only cooking up in the kitchen because in this menu, all that Betsy wants to order is her side of Quinton James and she could not get enough of him. In this book, Ms. Usen allows her readers to see an independent woman trying to do whats best for her family and at the same time fulfilling her dreams of opening a restaurant. Love has always been in the back burner for Betsy till she meet hotelier, Quinton. Both Quinton and Betsy has a past that left them a little apprehensive in the HEA. But like two magnets, these two could no longer deny the connection that was stirring between them. In this sexy and romantic story line, Ms. Usen will make you believe that Happily Ever Afters doesn't just exist in fairy tales but it was also in the cards or in this case, a reading of tea leaves for them. So if you are looking for a book that is filled with steam, romance, passion, and love then I recommend you read Make Me, Take Me.

MVP by M. Robinson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Reviewed by: Michelle


They say love hurts, but that is not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Jealousy hurts. Love can get blurred with these things. But in reality love is the only thing in this word that matters and that can cover up all the pain and make someone feel alive. And for Ysa and Sebastian the journey of finding that happily ever after is one long emotional and touching tale of rediscovering each other. It is easy to give your heart to someone but its harder to keep that love alive and burning with passion when secrets, fears, jealousy and lies can destroy not one but two lives. And so begins the tale of Ysa and Sebastian as they rediscover what truly matters in life? Will the past of their sins and mistakes continue to haunt them? Or will their journey lead them back together? Is their love worth fighting for? They say in order to know if its real love, you have to let them go and if it comes back to you then you know it was meant to be. Will one of them be coming back?



MVP by M. Robinson is one emotional heartbreaking and yet sexy story of two lovers connecting, rediscovering, and learning again. Though their love affair might not be of fairy tales, it is a love story like no order. What started out as an affair, blossomed into a love where two souls connected and intertwined as one. The hardest part of loving someone with a past is accepting their past love and life. Insecurities, doubts, and fears may have played a big factor in Ysa's turmoil of what is right and wrong, but Ysa's growth as a character has truly blossomed into a young woman rediscovering her inner strength. She may have once been a VIP but that does not define her. What defines her now is her love for her family, friends, and Sebastian. The raw emotional vulnerabilty of Ysa will capture your heart because you understand the depth of a woman trying to make up for her past mistakes especially when it came with Julia and Christian. And as for Sebastian, the love and devotion he has for Ysa was never doubted but what I truly love about this book is his strength to finally voice out his concerns and anger. Love is not watching in the sidelines but it is also making a stand. And in doing so, Sebastian has come to a crossroads in his life where he must learn that sometimes letting to is the best thing to do.



What can I say but what a sexy, emotional, heartbreaking ride M. Robinson took her readers on. I will be the first to admit, I hated Sebastian in VIP there was no ifs and or buts. I didn't like his character at all. I didn't think he was book boyfriend material. But you know what, my opinion on him changed drastically in MVP. Sebastian has truly evolved and grown as a redeemable and worthy man. I found myself liking Sebastian a lot in MVP because M. Robinson finally made readers like myself see the vulnerability and loving side of Sebastian. I love a book when an author can make you see that we are all flawed and no one is perfect. The love of Sebastian and Ysa is not perfect but what true love is. The beauty of love is not seeing the imperfection but accepting that their imperfect love is perfect for them. And for Ysa and Sebastian, their love doesn't need to be perfect but it just needs to be true.

☆☆☆☆☆ 5 Dark and Sexy Zerro Stars ☆☆☆☆☆

A dark erotic and sexy romance about a young innocent girl and a Mafia King. This book is full of violence, sex, murder and swearing. Even with all these, it is still a real treat.

Will a Mafia King fall in love with a small country girl?
Will a small town girl fall in love with a Mafia boss that almost killed her father?

As a small 5 yr old boy Zerro faced death. With his mom being held at gun point he hid in a hidden space in his closet while he listened to his mom shot dead. The only person in his life left ripped away from him and he didn’t understand why.

What happens to that boy when he grows up?

He grows up to be what he was meant and born to be, a Mafia King. He grew up with no care in the world, only trusting the people who grew up with. He swore to himself never to love another person again, knowing that love only brings pain and everyone he loves always getting taken away from him.

Then… Bree came along, with Bree’s dad owing him money and without the promised payment returned, he took Bree after she offered herself to him to pay for her dad’s debt, in exchange for her dad’s life.

Bree was young and innocent, just came home from college to visit her dad. She never expected she was coming home to a bunch of mess that her dad caused, only to be taken away by a stranger into the life of a Mafia boss. She never expected to see Zerro kill people with no remorse, she never expected to be tutored by him neither for not obeying his rules. She definitely did not expect to feel for him and be attracted to him, especially after everything she knows he has done. She knew everything was messed up, but she couldn’t help the way she felt. The more time they spent together the more, she thought she could save him. She knew there was a reason why Zerro became the man that he is and she was hoping she would be the person to save him. She saw the good in him, no matter how f**ked up everything seem to be.

Zerro started filling up full of emotions he hasn’t had and swore to himself never to feel again. Bree is creeping up in his heart, he worked so hard not to let happen. He knew Bree would be the death of him, because he couldn’t keep his heart closed up too much longer. He was addicted to her, he couldn’t get enough of her. But could he trust her with his life? with his heart? Only one way to find out. He knew that she was a big distraction to the life that he has, but he couldn’t help but care for her and even love her.

Of course lets not forget, when Zerro and Bree were together, it was nothing but hot. Zerro is a straight up alpha male who didn’t ask for what he wanted. He commanded, and he got what he wanted. Bree wasn’t a weak little thing either, she was strong and had a mouth on her. She also didn’t back down when it came to Zerro, she had no fear when it came to him. She told him what she felt and what she wanted. Together they balanced each other out. Everything was good with them, until the Mafia life started to get in the way that pushed Bree to have to kill a man to save Zerro’s life. Then there’s Zerro’s friend Mack, who made up a bunch of lies to put a big hole in the relationship that Zerro and Bree were started build. Zerro being confused took a step back from Bree and believed his friend Mack instead of Bree. Will this be the end of their dark and messed up love affair? Or is it just the beginning?

I enjoyed this book very much, I read it in one sitting. Just like JL Beck’s other book, I love this. Yes this book ends WITH a cliffhanger as this is the 1st book of the series A Kingpin Love Affair, but it wasn’t a cliffhanger I hated. The cliffhanger just made me more excited to read book 2, which I’m hoping comes out soon.

Thx for sharing your book with me JL Beck. Another awesome book.

Mistaken by Fate by Katee Robert
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

ARC provided by Entangled Publishing in exchange for honest review.



All I can say is Mistaken By Fate by Katee Robert was SEXY!! This was my first book that I have read from this author and definitely won’t be the last. Ms. Robert definitely treated and served her readers a delicious hot steamy read with this BDSM romance. If you are looking for a DOM that screams total alpha and a SUB that is discovering and exploring her sexuality then Mistaken By Fate is the book for you.



Ridley Etheridge wanted Will Reaver thinking he was the perfect person to satisfy her needs in the BDSM scene but little did she knew the person who could satisfy and fulfill her needs was Will’s identical brother, Garrett. Ridley and Garrett had a romantic history in the past. Soon Garrett found himself wanting more of Ridley. He was consumed with her and wanted more. With Garrett, Ridley found herself submitting to the man who awakened her sexuality. Together they found themselves igniting a bond that will awaken their hearts. And now that Garrett had a taste of Ridley, he will make sure not to make the same mistake twice and let Ridley go.



Mistaken By Fate was a hot hot read. It had a Dom hero that was alpha and yet affectionate. He was the perfect balance of sweet, dominant, and understanding. And as for Ridley, she was a strong heroine. She was still able to voice her concerns and Garrett was able to ease her into the BDSM scene. They complimented each other well. So if are you looking for a book that will deliver HEA with a side of BDSM then I highly suggest you go read Mistaken By Fate because Katee Robert served the perfect balance of romance, steam and sexiness.
