ARC Review - Wicked Crazy Vampire by Cassandra Lawson!


BLURB:

Twenty-five years ago an alliance was formed for the purpose of starting a war between vampires and hunters. When their plot was abandoned, all traces of their secret order were destroyed. . . or so they believed. A child who is both hunter and vampire survived. To keep her safe, her true nature has been hidden for more than two decades. Now, the original members of the order have joined forces once more for a single purpose—to kill the young woman before anyone can discover what she is.


Raised to be the perfect killer, Drew never expected to be anything more. Watching his cousins find true happiness and love, he longed for more, even knowing he was too broken for love. When his vampire family joins forces to stop a plot that could end the truce between vampires and hunters, Drew is thrown together with a woman who is not what she seems. She is far from Drew’s type, but he finds himself unable to stay away from her. As he tries to find a way to keep her safe, he begins to wonder if she may be able to love him for who he is—faults and all. 

MY REVIEW:

Get ready for Drew everybody! I loved this sexy, wicked, slightly nutty vampire with his sense of humor, his strange charm and his sexiness! And Talia she is bad ass, sweet yet tough and she is not at ALL what she appears to be. Whenever Talia and Drew get together, sparks fly, annoyances turn to lust and oh boy, is that lust something to see.

Cassandra Lawson writes some of the steamiest, action packed, sweet, and unforgettable paranormal romance to date. Her vampires are always irresistible and her heroines are strong and fierce and know just how to capture the heroes heart. Wicked Crazy Vampire had me smiling ear to ear and loving every second of this story. I honestly can't get enough of Drew! Out of all the vampires Miss Lawson has written so far, I think I like Drew the very best. His wicked charm and personality and even his slight broodiness just drew me in like a moth to a flame. And when Talia and Drew start spending time together as they search out Shayla, the sparks snap, crackle, and pop and the chemistry left me breathless and achy. God, how I loved these two!

Wicked Crazy Vampire gets a WICKEDLY CRAZY FIVE SHOOTING STARS! Sexy, sweet, dangerous and tempting, this book is a REAL WINNER!

Get ready for a ride to rival no other. And remember... all’s fair in love and war!


MY REVIEW:

HOT TAMALE, I THINK I FOUND MY NEW FAVORITE DRAGONFIN BOYFRIEND IN MATHIAS! I think Mathias might very well have topped Ajax and Lucien. He was not only infinitely patient with Wren, but he was caring, sweet, and when the time came, his dominant side had me hot and bothered.  And Wren, she would be one of my BEST friends. I loved her shyness, her naivete, her sweetness and definitely her spunk! When she got drunk and was rambling on, I laughed and giggled and ADORED the way Mathias took care of her. OMG to say this third book was fabulous is putting it lightly. I can't even begin putting into words how much I enjoyed this story.

There was loads of excitement and action and the sex..SCORCHING HOT! This has got to be one of my favorite Paranormal Romance series to date! I loved every single character so far and can't help but to go all "fangirl" over them! Mychal Daniels writing draws me into her her Dragonfin world in a way that makes it nearly impossible to want to leave. From start to finish I was not only severely engrossed in the story but I instantly want the next one, the moment I hit the end...SO GOOD!

Mathias: Dragonfin Mated, Book 3 gets a SENSATIONAL FIVE SHOOTING STARS! Wren and Mathias is definitely a favorite book couple of mine and I can't wait to do a re-read!

Excerpt:
She looked up, not clearly focused and blew a raspberry. “Ha! You’re just saying that to make me happy. You want me to be happy, don’t you?”
“Yes, I do. I want to be happy too,” he almost whispered the confession.
“You can make me happy by kissing me then. Matt, no one’s ever wanted to kiss me. Does my breath smell or something?”
He laughed. She was beyond anything he could have fashioned for his perfect mate. Wren was both seductive and naive at the same time.
“No, your breath is fine. I’ve always wanted to kiss you too.”
“Really? Then prove it. I dare you to kiss me, beautiful Matt. And, where’s my purse?” she asked, trying to turn in a circle as he ran over to hold her up. “What did my purse ever do to you? I can’t find it.”
“Your purse is on your shoulder,” he said, keeping the gentleness in his voice. She was so funny and entertaining. He could stay like this, just the two of them, forever.
“I still can’t find it. Was my purse mean to you?”
“No, I put it on your shoulder.”
“Okay—I trust you beautiful Matt. Now kiss me, please?”
This was dangerous ground they were treading. Wren was in no mood to move into this part of their relationship in her current state. Matt wouldn’t take advantage of the situation to get what he wanted either. Never in a thousand years would he have figured this time would come. Here they were, Wren asking him to kiss her and him bound to respect her by denying her.
“Wren, I can’t kiss you now—not like this.”
“Why not? I can learn real fast. Give me my phone. I have WiFi on my phone. Let me Gooby it and then I’ll be ready.”
“Don’t you mean Google it?”
“I just said that. Hey, are you trying to confuse me? I know what I just said, beautiful Matt. Matt, you’re so hot.”
“Thank you.”

“Go to college,” they said. “Get a good job,” they said. “It will be a piece of cake.” Well, whoever they are, they lied. Sure, college was a blast, but after college, not so much. The finding a job to go with my expensive education, that part was not so easy. At least not until I was offered a position at the new club in town.

Life is defined by the little moments that have the power to change it completely. I never thought getting a cup of coffee would change mine, but it did. She did. She’s one of those moments.

He’s my boss.

She’s my employee. 

I want him.

I can’t resist her.

MY REVIEW:

The first thing I have to say about this book is the absolute scrumptious cover! It draws the eye and makes you think, naughty, sweet things. The story itself promises a great time and Kaylee Ryan DELIVERED! Oh boy did she deliver! I fell in love with the story from the moment I opened the book, and the characters were developed and fun and the plot...you can't resist it!

I think I found myself a new author I need to have on my "auto-buy" list. This book gives me all the reasons why I adore romance. I Just Want You had passion, chemistry, sizzling, scorching sex and sweet, soul-searching romance. I want another taste!

I Just Want You gets a WONDERFUL AND STEAMY FIVE SHOOTING STARS!

She's taking a walk on HIS wild side!


CRAZY FOR YOU
A Risking It All Novel
Rachel Lacey
Releasing March 28, 2017
Forever


“Rachel Lacey is a sure-fire star." --- Lori Wilde, New York Times bestselling author

SHE'S TAKING A WALK ON HIS WILD SIDE

Emma Rush can't remember a time when she didn't have a thing for Ryan Blake. Haven's resident bad boy is just so freakin' hot-with tattoos, a motorcycle, and enough rough-around-the-edges sexiness to melt all her self-control. Now that Emma's over being a "good girl," she needs a little help being naughty . . . and she knows just where to start.

Before Emma's brother enlisted in the military, he made Ryan promise that he would protect her from everything--including himself. When her brother doesn't come home, Ryan needs to turn his screwed-up life around to honor his pledge. But he knows he's still not the right kind of guy for someone as sweet as Emma. Only he can't stop wanting to be with her. Wanting her. Falling in love with a good girl may be the craziest risk this bad boy can take . . . 

MY REVIEW:

Crazy For You had me positively giddy! Rachel Lacey is a goddess with her writing! I loved Run To You and Crazy For You was even BETTER! Full of emotion, heat, and plenty of humor, this book had it all including that sizzling romance we come to know and love and expect from Miss Lacey.

Emma and Ryan had me falling in love with their story from the first chapter to the very last. I cried, I laughed and I SO sighed. To say this book was impressing is putting it mildly. I enjoyed the ever loving heck out this one of a kind romance!

Crazy For You gets a SEDUCTIVELY APPEALING FIVE SHOOTING STARS! Fun, flirty, and full of promise, this book will win your heart from the synopsis alone.

Title: Crazy Over You
Series: Love with Altitude #2 (Standalone)
Author: Daisy Prescott
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Release Date: March 28, 2017



Blurb


My savior isn’t prince charming.

I’m not that lucky.
He’s my worst nightmare.
He’s my one night stand from two years ago.
And he doesn’t remember me.

What happens on vacation doesn't always stay on vacation. Especially in a place like Aspen. I moved to the mountains for my dream vet job. I never expected to run into the man of my dreams. Again.


I never thought I'd see her again.

My Cinderella didn't leave me a shoe to find her.
Not that I'd need random footwear to recognize her.
Her kiss is something I'll never forget.


Work hard. Play hard. I'm paid to be a nice guy on the slopes, but what I do in my off time isn't always about making good choices. That's the fun of living in a ski town. I stay while the women come and go. 


Crazy Over You is a standalone romantic comedy and the second book in the Love with Altitude series.

MY REVIEW:

A giggle-inducing romance that will tickle your funny bone and kick-start your heart. OMG I loved how this story began! I couldn't help but to laugh and chuckle and oh boy, the sweet romance had me giddy with happiness! I think I am in awe of Daisy Prescott. Her words, her stories, and her characters draw me in and she paints a picture so serene and intoxicating you can't help but to love it.

This romance swept me away and kept me away until the end. I loved the allure this fun and sweet romantic comedy had. The characters had me smiling and their antics and the story itself fulfilled me in a way I couldn't of imagined. I SO want more books like this by Miss Prescott!

Crazy For You gets a CRAZY GOOD FOUR AND A HALF SHOOTING STARS! Its sweet, its fun, its a complete treasure!

Excerpt


“I’m paid to be a nice guy.” He gives me a sweet smile while his eyes shine with mischief. 


“You’re only nice when you’re being paid?” I squint at him with distrust. 

“You make me sound like a male escort.” His smile falters but the mischievous spark doesn’t fade. 

“Your words not mine.” 

“Better than a stripper. At least I don’t have to prance around on stage in a thong.” He chuckles. 

But I’m not laughing. 

Stripper.

The word echoes around in my head as a strong sense of déjà vu hits me smack in the face. 

Me dancing on a bar in a short, silver dress. Me practically showing off the goods to a crowd of cheering men. 

Oh no. Oh shit. Friends, we have a problem. 

My savior isn’t prince charming. 

No, I’m not that lucky. 

He’s my worst nightmare.

He’s my one night stand from two years ago.
