Review of Bayon and Jean-Baptiste, Book 3 and Book 4 of Bayou Heat by Alexandra Ivy and Laura Wright

Good morning book lovers of all kind! Today's review is for the delightfully sinful Bayou Heat series, book 3 and book 4, by Alexandra Ivy and Laura Wright. These books contain, hot alpha shifters, spicy romance, compelling characters, and take-your-breath-away sex. Whats not to love about that?

Blurb:

Bayon:

Charming, drop-dead gorgeous Hunter Bayon is thirsting for revenge on the enemies who slipped into the Wildlands and attacked Ashe and her vulnerable child. Pledging to track down the cowards, Bayon goes on the hunt, pursuing the humans to a nearby town. But searching their shabby hideaway, he makes a discovery that shocks him to his very soul and might very well destroy the heart of the Pantera.

Jean-Baptiste:

Tattooed and pierced, sexy Nurturer Jean-Baptiste has been living in utter isolation. His cat is out of control, and the only thing that soothes the beast is a rare mineral he keeps inking into his skin. Until he meets her: Genevieve Burel. The beautiful and buttoned-up female puma is unlike anyone he's ever met. She makes his cat purr, and he knows he must possess her, mate with her. But the secret she's keeping might threaten not only their unbridled passion for one another, but the very future of the Pantera race.

WOW! Thats the first word that came to mind when I read this blurb. I knew right then, that this book was going to be spectacular and it wasn't. It was MUCH BETTER! I was hooked from Book1 and Book2 and knew that with each one released that this series would just get better and better. I fell hard for Bayon. As in stumbled over my own feet and landed on my face kind of thing. Bayon was stunningly hot and so freaking sweet at the same time. To me, there is nothing more appealing then a man that can be both a dominating beast in the bedroom, and a slow seductive lover too. Now Jean-Baptiste was a real treat! A mighty character with so much sex appeal and a dominating figure that just left me panting and squirming for his story to continue. I think Alexandra and Laura make a dynamic duo when it comes to writing. They create a world of shifters that you want to be a part of forever and ever. They also know how to create the PURRRFECT mates for these dominating alphas that will leave them on the end of a leash and LOVING every second of it!  Giving this a Five out of Five Stars was definitely no hard ship. It was easy to give this incredible book what it deserved and I am sure, many of you will certainly agree. Happy Sunday everyone. Hope you have a fun and safe Memorial Day weekend!!

Review of Moon by Laurann Dohner

I am a day late on my review for Moon by the fabulous Laurann Dohner. But thats what happens when one decides to go with her husband to fix his truck at his parents house. Men! They take forever with things. Anywho, today I have the pleasure of reviewing one of my favorite series of ALL time! I fell in love with the incredible New Species Series by Laurann Dohner from book 1, Fury. I was hooked on these gorgeous man-creatures that give a whole new meaning to the words cherish and possessive. These guys sure know how to treat their women and they will protect them with their very lives and heck, they even worship the very ground their mates walk on.

Blurb:

Dr. Joyce Yards has never met anyone as sexy or as irresistible as 466. He refuses to discuss anything except getting her naked beneath him. Their therapy sessions are growing hotter, his raw hunger for her is becoming aggressive, and she is falling for him. Joy knows the dire consequences if she gives in to desire. It will break her heart but she must walk away.

Moon has been drugged. He is feral and dangerous to everyone. The NSO doctors turn to the only female Moon ever cared about the one who left him in the dessert two years ago. 

Moon isn't the same male Joy once knew but she is willing to put her life on the line for him. There are no rules now. If sex tames the wild beast and triggers his fractured memories, allowing him moments of lucidity, then Joy will give him her body and her soul. She'll do whatever it takes to save him.

 This is the 10th book in the New Species Series and what a great story it was! I have never been disappointed with any of the NS books. I fell for Fury, crushed on Slade, swooned with Valiant, panted with Justice, grew weak-kneed with Brawn, got hot with Wrath, I wanted Tiger, got excited with Obsidian, sighed over Shadow, and now, dreamed constantly of Moon.  I absolutely LOVE how sexy and cute Laurann Dohner made these to die for man-beasts. They are both drool worthy and kind hearted. I thought this was a different but no less special twist on these NS books. I enjoyed seeing how a "feral" NS man acted. I was worried he would harm Joy, but even in his crazy state, he couldn't harm the one woman he sensed was his mate. Joy was so brave to go in with a male that was virtually feral and didn't recognize anyone, including her but she was more then willing to save the one man that had always held her heart. She refused to give up on him and her dedication to save him paid off when he started to come out of the drugs and started to remember bits and pieces of his life before and after his rescue from Mercile. I truly fell hard for Moon and how incredibly protective and caring he was toward Joy even when the drugs kicked in and he forgot who he was. This book got a Five out of Five  Stars with me because of its constant action, touching moments and it even had a touch of humor. If you LOVE books where the males are true alphas with dominant tendencies who growl often and can make you wet with one scorching look, and have the looks of the Beast in the 80's TV show, Beauty and the Beast, then you will fall hard for this scorching series. A total MUST MUST MUST read! I honestly hope this series go on for a VERY long time.

Review of Ours To Love by Shayla Black

WOO HOO!! Finally its time for my review of this spectacular book, Ours To Love by Shayla Black which I was lucky enough to read before the release. Before we begin, I would like to wish EVERY mother out there a VERY special Happy Mother's Day! May you all get exactly what you want on this day. Whether its a day away from the kids, dinner out with your special man, a bouquet of your favorite flowers or something else just as special. I hope it will be a great day for all those glorious mothers in the world! 

Now lets get down to business and get started on this lovely review for a very special book.

Blurb:

 Between two brothers...

Xander Santiago spent years living it up as a billionaire playboy. Never given a chance to lead his family business in the boardroom,he becomes a Master in the bedroom instead. His older brother inherited the company and worked tirelesslly to make it an empire. But while the cutthroat corporate espionage took its toll on Javier, nothing was as devastating as the seemingly senseless murder of his wife. It propelled him into a year of punishing rage and guilt...until Xander came to his rescue.

Comes an Irresistible woman...

Eager to rejuvenate Javier's life, Xander shanghais him to Louisiana where they meet the beautiful London McLane. After surviving a decade of tragedy and struggle, London is determined to make a fresh start-and these sexy billionaire brotehrs are more than willing to help. In every way. And London is stunned to find herself open to every heated suggestion..and desperately hoping that her love will heal them.

And inescapable danger..

But a killer with a hidden motive is watching, on a single-minded mission to destroy everything the Santiago brothers hold dear, especially London. And as fear and desire collide, every passionate beat of her heart could be her last. 

This is the seventh book in the delightfully sinful Wicked Lover Series and is one of my definite favorites. I give this a Five out of Five stars! This is a magnificent edition to the Wicked Lover series. I was truly snared in this book from the moment I opened this to the very last page. I fell so hard and fast for the playful yet sexy Xander and the more serious, but no less sexy Javier and thought that these two were just so good for the gorgeous and slightly shy London. London is a beautiful young woman who went through a horrible accident when she was young. She went through many surgeries and even though she was slightly nervous when it came to these two hot headed brothers who couldn't tell whether they should be at each others throats or not, she was determined to get them to connect like they used to when they were young. And she did it! With flying colors in just a matter of days..heck in hours if you ask me. Both brothers set aside their differences to put London's heart and pleasure above their own.  London I thought, was the perfect thing to balance out these thick headed brothers. They also taught London that her body was gorgeous even with her scars she couldn't stand, because they were a testament to not her struggles, but her survival. They both showed her the courage and spirit she possessed as they also showed her what it was like to be submissive with two brothers who wanted nothing more than to give her pleasure and heal her heart as well. A truly splendid book. A definite MUST MUST MUST read for those that adore the Wicked Lover Series like I do. It was a real treat to read this and one I wont be forgetting anytime soon. A true winner! Mrs. Black knows how to create characters and a world I wished existed in the real world. She is a star storyteller and I can't wait for the next installment. 

Review of Behind the Scenes and Rent Boy and Interview with TL Reeve

Today I have the pleasure of reviewing Behind The Scenes (On The Set Part 1) and Rent Boy (On The Set Part 2) by TL Reeve. She has also stopped by for a interview. First lets get to the reviews, shall we?

Behind The Scenes:

Blurb

Without a dime to her name, Jamie has no place to call her own. Struggling and desperate, she answers a studio call, failing to mention the very small fact that she has zero experience. What's the worst that could happen?

Lovers, friends, and rulers of the almighty porn industry, Trevor and Vance are inseparable until the unbelievable intervenes On The Set.

Unsure, they are all thrust into a winding spiral of  carnal desire for other peoples' viewing pleasure. When the Camera starts rolling and the lights are on, an insatiable lust that crosses all boundaries ignites as the trio lays claim to each other in the rawest of ways.

This was a  spicy short read in the first part of On The Set that had me squirming deliciously in my seat. I give this a Four out of Five Stars. I really enjoyed the sensual scenes between Trevor and Vance but when you add the sexy Jamie, things become even hotter! I was instantly drawn to all three characters and even though I was a bit leery at first over the whole porn industry thing, I found myself captivated after the first erotic encounter happening literally, on the set. It was absolutely stimulating and so sensually good, that I will treasure these short reads for a while to come. 

Rent Boy:

                                     

 Blurb

       Security guard extraordinaire, Bobby, loves the perks of his job. When an opportunity of a lifetime presents itself, he signs on the dotted line.

In desperate need of a new dynamic duo, Heather's brother, Nathan, agrees to help her. But when a catastrophe strikes, the danger level spiral out of control, and no one is safe.

A mysterious criminal hellbent on revenge lurks, waiting for the perfect moment when he will deliver his own justice. Will they band together and foil his plan, or is life only for rent?

The second part to the On The Set series was just as delicious as the first one. I really liked Bobby the security guard turned porn star. He was incredibly masculine and just made me want a taste of him myself. Nathan reminds me of a friend I use to have  

and he just seems so trust worthy and just as sexy as Bobby, but in a lighter way. The sex between these two men is off the charts HOT and so decadent that you will want to read this short story again and again, just to relive the scenes. I give this a Four out of Five Stars. A super hot, steamy, drool worthy book that will no doubt keep you in a constant state of...well I think you get the idea. A must read for those that LOVE and cherish erotic reads.

 Now please give a warm welcome to the talented author of "Behind the Scenes" On the Set part 1 and "Rent Boy" On the Set part 2, TL Reeve!!


Good morning and thank you for having me.



1. Did you always imagine yourself as a writer growing up?
No. I had other ideas of what I wanted to be, but after being a substitute teach for four years and loving that I just kind of fell into writing.




2. What was your favorite book as a teenager?
The Shinning. It started my love of Stephen King. His imagination is brilliant and frightening all at the same time.
So, I got as many of his books as I could, and just jumped in head first. The only book I couldn't finish was IT. Now that book scared the crap out of me.




3. Do you have any plans of making a full length novel in the future?
I want to. It's something my writing partner and I are discussing right now. So maybe in the furture.... *laughs*




4. I know at the end of Rent Boy Part 2, it said it will be continued but will there be a part 4 to this incredible On The Set series?
There will three more books in the series. I am working on book 3 and book 4 right now. 
Book 3 is the conclusion of Heather, Nathan and Bobby's story. Book 4 is Dirk and Samantha and book 5, well you'll just have to keep reading for that one. 



Thank you so much for stopping by today. It was a pleasure to have you.

Thank you for having me. I had a blast!
