Mine!

Title: Mine!
Author: Bree Branigan

Publisher: Self-Published
Publication Date: November 8, 2016

Rating: 2*'s

Description:When a girl gives you what you really want, how can you leave? But then, you must, or else… Victoria lives a luxurious life with her dom, Mason. But when he loses a wager and she is loaned to an assertive dominatrix she awakens to what she is missing. This is where she wants to be. But how to tell Mason? She is his. He will be livid. Will he let her go? At what price?

My Review: Mine left a lot of potential for more in store.It starts off bland with Dom Mason correcting Victoria but as you delve deeper into the story, you discover the relationship that awakens between her and the Dominatrix Tiff. We also get glimpses into Victoria's past. I feel like the execution of the story could have been better but I commend the start of it. I enjoyed the story and was left wanting more. It felt cut off too soon. I hope to see more of Tiff, Victoria, and Dom Mason.

Blurb:

Twenty-six- year-old Callie Shaw has needed a father figure in her life for many years, and when she meets Brandon Clay she wonders if she might have found the man to fill that role at last. Though he spoils her and loves her dearly, Brandon is not a man to be trifled with, and when Callie lies to him and puts herself in danger she soon finds herself bent over her new daddy’s lap for a stinging spanking on her bare bottom.

Though he does not hesitate to chastise her firmly when she misbehaves, Brandon never fails to hold Callie in his arms when her punishment is over, and his strict but loving discipline ignites a fire in her which can only be quenched by surrendering her body to his masterful lovemaking.

But is she truly prepared to trust her daddy to do what is best for her, even when she has been really naughty and she knows that the spanking she has coming is one she will never forget?

Publisher’s Note: Callie’s Daddy is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, age play, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

Brandon leaned over her and licked the shell of her ear. “Your skin is so nice and pink. Tell me, does my dirty girl want a good ramming from her daddy?” Broad fingers played with her labia. She pushed back against his touch. “Oh, yes, Daddy Brand, ram me good, please,” she panted, rubbing her nipples against the cool cherry wood. She heard him loosening his trousers, but couldn’t wait and inched her way to the end of the desk, intent on humping the rounded corner. A slap landed squarely on her sore ass.

“Are you trying to hump my desk, dirty girl?” He pushed a finger deep inside her pussy. She groaned, rising on her tiptoes for more. “Hmm, how wet you are.” He added another finger, scraping in and out her sensitized flesh. Callie stuck out her buttocks and mewled. “You like when daddy fingers your pussy, don’t you?”

“Oh, yes, it feels so good.” She ground her hips. “Daddy, I want more. I want something bigger
and harder in there.”

He pulled out his fingers nice and slow and, from the corner of her eye she saw him raise them to
his nose. “You smell so sweet and good. I’ll give you something hard, but first I want to taste
you. Would you like daddy’s tongue between your legs?”

Callie wasted no time in flipping over on her back.

Brandon chuckled. “Now that’s an order you have no trouble following.”

“Nope.” She set her feet flat on the desk and parted her knees. “Lick me, daddy. I ache so.” She
burned hot as his sizzling gaze roamed slowly over that part of her that wept for his attention.

“Show daddy where you ache, Callie mine.”

Callie’s hand shook slightly as she touched herself between her legs. “Right here.” Using her
other hand, she spread the folds of her sex.

Brandon stared at her, his eyes deepening to a darker blue. “Your delicate pink flower belongs to
daddy.” His tongue fluttered along the length of her inner thighs, making her squirm. He kissed
the swollen bud. “Come for me. Give daddy your special cream from that sweet little cunt.”
Callie writhed and moaned as his mouth latched onto her flesh. He slid both hands beneath her
buttocks, lifting her higher, and buried his face between her legs. She grabbed onto his forearms
and bucked against his mouth. It felt as if his tongue was licking her everywhere at the same
time. He nipped her clit then lapped at the bite, soothing the area with long licks as he worked
his way down to her dark hole. He tongued her there. Once. Twice. Callie’s breath came short
and fast. Brandon moved his way back up to her entrance and covered her opening with his
mouth. His tongue slipped inside and her entire body shook with the force of her orgasm.

Brandon grabbed hold of her hips. “Daddy’s going to give it to you good.” He drove himself
inside her and she cried out. It didn’t take long for her to match his thrusts. “I’ll punish this sweet
wet pussy of yours so you’ll think twice about showing off what’s mine. I’ll teach you who’s in
charge.” She moaned in reply.

“Daddy, that special feeling is coming again.” Her breath quickened.

“Just let it come, princess. Let your daddy pleasure you one more time.”

Review:
Callie is a spitfire of a character. She is determined to find proof of her employer's wrong doing but it interferes with her relationship with Daddy Brandon. She just knows her boss is doing something illegal but will finding proof hurt her relationship?

Brandon is a very loving Daddy but also knows there is a time to be firm. He has to find balance as he adjusts to his new relationship with Callie. He also has to seek out a lot of patience to deal with his sweet spitfire.

I really enjoyed Callie's Daddy and reading about their journey. I could definitely see another book about them. Watching Callie learn to trust Daddy Brandon and Daddy Brandon learning that Callie sometimes just needs to be held was a wonderful part of the story. I would definitely recommend this to anyone first time reading age play.

At Dead Of Night

Title: At Dead Of Night
Author: Bethany Leigh

Publisher: Blushing Books Publishing
Publication Date: January 6, 2016

Rating: 4 *'s

After eight years of working as a PI, Lucy Ogilvy finally has a murder mystery to investigate. Who did kill Marilyn Carter, a convicted murderer who is now a prominent Christian evangelist?

Lucy's investigations bring her back in contact with her ex-boyfriend Noel. They'd like to get back together - but he insists on a domestic discipline relationship, and forbids her to take unnecessary risks for work.

Can Lucy accept Noel's discipline? And how do you investigate a murder without taking a few risks, anyway?

My Review
Suspense and crime books have always been one of my guilty pleasures. I enjoyed reading this and trying to guess who did it. I also loved watching Lucy give into her true feelings for Noel. This was a page turner and I knew from page one I wouldn't stop until I finished and found out who did it.

This is definitely a great story for people who love a good mystery mixed with steamy spankings.

Sunstrokes

Title: Sunstrokes (Four Hot Tales of Punishment and Pleasure)
Authors: Maisy Archer, Jane Henry, Susannah Shannon, and Amelia Smarts

Publisher: Blushing Books
Publication Date: June 11, 2016

Rating: 5 *s


Four authors bring you four stories sure to light up your summer like fireworks on the 4th of July. Some are sweet, some are spicy, and all are a spanking good time.

When Dom and Heidi go camping, their D/s relationship is put to the test. How will their dynamic work while they’re on vacation? Meredith and Paolo heat up the pages in their summer romp in Florida, where sex and spankings are as plentiful as the sand under the boardwalk. Cass and Killian, the Alaskan couple who are always good for a laugh, agree to be filmed for Cass’s new show, but their relationship isn’t quite normal according to the average American viewer. Finally, newly married Anna and Carter simmer in silent misunderstanding until sparks fly, giving one of them a warmed bottom and both a renewed love for each other.

The Perfect Memory by Maisy Archer 
Just months after falling for the sexy dominant next door, Heidi has learned that submission is about more than just spanking and hot sex. While she loves Dominic and the relationship they are building, she sometimes chafes under his authority. So when Dom surprises her with a weekend camping trip, it becomes more than just an opportunity to get out of town - for Heidi, it’s also a vacation from the rules and a chance to recreate her happy childhood memories. But when everything that can go wrong does, and emotions run high, will Dom be able to step up and get things back under control? Or will memories be all they have left?

Under the Boardwalk by Jane Henry 
For the first time in years, Meredith and Paolo are going on vacation in sunny Orlando. With no work or commitments to keep them apart from one another, Paolo is bound and determined to keep Meredith on her toes, when she's not over his lap. He will have his way whenever he wants, and she's more than happy to oblige. As Paolo embarks on a secret mission to find the perfect souvenir, Meredith is curious. What is the perfect souvenir? Paolo is easily able to stay her curiosity with his wicked ways, distracting her with sexy sessions over his lap, and his insistent demands. Yet when unfortunate circumstances put Meredith in a precarious situation, Paolo is determined to remind her that even on vacation, naughty girls get spanked.

Brined by Susannah Shannon 
Nothing is hotter than Alaska on the Fourth of July, unless it’s Cass’s bottom if she can’t control her temper. Cass Nelson is showing off her home and her party-throwing prowess in front of a TV crew. As if auditioning for a TV show isn’t pressure enough, her recently separated parents have joined the festivities along with Hazel, her very happily, newly married mother-in-law. Berry shortcakes, breaching killer whales, and more than one kind of fireworks make an appearance, as do the humor and recipes that are always part of a Cass and Killian story.

The Firecracker by Amelia Smarts 
Married for less than six months, Anna is easing into her new role as Carter’s wife and Paddy’s mama. Anna wants to please Carter and be a good wife. She certainly doesn’t want to be taken over her husband's knee for a sound, bare-bottom spanking for disobedience. But her behavior changes when she begins to doubt that Carter loves her as much as he loved his now- deceased first wife, and she decides obedience is not necessarily the best way to respond to her stubborn alpha husband. Tension burns, tempers flare, and a bottom is thoroughly warmed in this short story bursting with passion, persistence and, in the end, a new understanding of the healing power of love.


Disclaimer: These stories include the spanking of adult women and sexual scenes.

Review:
The Perfect Memory: I absolutely adored Heidi and Dom's story. It puts a focus on how structure in a D/s relationship. It also shows when you try to relax back into a casual relationship and give leeway it can offset the relationship. I can't wait to read more about Heidi and Dom.

Under The Boardwalk: Paolo and Meredith have a solid relationship. I love that Paolo is disabled and we are able to see the structure of a D/s relationship when the Dom is wheel chair bound. Rest assured Paolo still has a firm hand.

Brined: Cass absolutely made my day with her spirit and attitude. There were moments where you could tell she had enough but kept pushing through especially with Killian's firm hand to keep her in line.

The Fire Cracker: Anna and Carter are still finding their way into there newly formed marriage. It has been such a huge adjustment for both them especially because all Anna wants to do is be a good submissive wife. She wants to please Carter and be a strong momma to Paddy.

I absolutely loved all four of these stories. Each author brings their own flare to the story. There are delicious spankings and great story lines. Definitely a great collection.

Yellow Dog Blues

Image and video hosting by

They both joined The Club and made an arrangement. She got the money to pay her overdue bills and he got access to her body, whenever and however he wanted it...


After being dumped by her boyfriend of six years, Lyric Johnson has no way to pay her bills. She’s been trying to find a job for months, but no one seems interested in hiring a recent graduate of a creative writing program. When Lyric’s neighbor tells her about THE CLUB, selling her body seems to be her only option.

Seven years ago recording artist, Maverick, had one of the biggest-selling singles of all time. When his second album failed to gain any traction and his personal life fell apart he disappeared into obscurity.

Now on the advice of his manager Maverick has joined THE CLUB and he’s chosen Lyric for an arrangement.  

YELLOW DOG BLUES is a SERIAL NOVEL, which unfolds in TWO PARTS (approximately 90 pages each).

Each novel in Ren Monterrey's The Club series can be read as a stand-alone or as part of the series.

Excerpt:

My hand shakes as I open the front door to The Club. 

I have no idea what I’m doing here. Am I really contemplating selling my body for money?

I consider turning around and trying to figure something else out, but I’ve exhausted nearly every option I can imagine.

My next door neighbor, Cali, referred me to The Club when she found me locked out of my apartment with an eviction notice plastered across my door.

Chad, my boyfriend of six years, decided to join the Peace Corps without telling me. He finally admitted he was leaving when I found him packing for his flight to Africa. He left me with an apartment I had no way to pay for and several months of utility bills that were past due.

Despite all of my best efforts to secure gainful employment I haven’t been able to find a job. Not even a nibble. Not even after a nationwide search.

I guess earning a Master’s degree in Creative Writing was much less marketable than I ever imagined it would be.

Out of complete and utter desperation I dialed the number on the black business card Cali gave me. The gruff woman who answered the phone asked me only two questions: how old I was and if I was a blond. Then she told me to meet her at three pm, quickly spit out the address and hung up on me.

So here I am at five minutes until three, my heart practically pounding out of my chest, trying to convince myself to go inside.

You have no job and nowhere to live, I remind myself. Not to mention a six figure student loan that’s about to come due in a few months. How I’ll ever be able to afford those monthly payments is something I can’t even contemplate at the moment.

I take in a deep breath and force myself to go inside.

As nondescript as the exterior of the building is, the interior is in sharp contrast. It’s rich looking with dark wood everywhere. The décor reminds me one of those men’s clubs from the movies. One of those places that only admits rich old men and exudes an atmosphere of excessive wealth and old money.

The Club has a similar vibe.

There’s a young woman standing behind a large mahogany desk. I expect her to give me some type of greeting, but she just stares at me with her big doe eyes.

As I get closer I realize just how tall she is. She towers over all five foot four of me. It would surprise me if she wasn’t some kind of model. She’s rail thin and has that emaciated look about her.

“I have an appointment with Claudia.”

I’m surprised that she doesn’t check an appointment book, or even an electronic calendar, until I realize there is absolutely nothing to check. The desk is completely bare.

“Follow me,” she says.

She doesn’t give me any time to reply. She takes off down a long hallway at a pace so brisk I practically have to run to keep up with her.

When we get to the door at the end of the hallway she turns to me and says, “Go inside. Claudia is waiting for you.”

Before I have a chance to reply she takes off back down the hallway leaving me alone with the drumbeat of my pounding heart.

It takes several impossibly long moments for me to gather enough courage to open the door to Claudia’s office.

Yellow Dog Blues is a beautiful story of desperation, hope, and new beginnings. Lyric is running out of her options. She's single and has a mountain of overdue bills. She hears about The Club and decides to take the plunge. Not aware fully of what diving into, her world is turned upside down.

Maverick fell into the lump of one hit wonders. He has taken solitude in Hawaii and brings Lyric unaware that is completely different from the others.

I really enjoyed Yellow Dog Blues and look forward to reading more of The Club series. I loved how Lyric had only a small clue of what she was getting herself into. She comes into Maverick's life like lighting strikes. It was beautiful watching the push and pull between them.

(Formerly Titled Master Class)
by Cassandra Carr
Genre: Erotica



Ryan Tomasi feels like a failure. His marriage is officially over; the ink dried on the divorce decree. His friend Jack introduces him to BDSM and he agrees to attend a Halloween party at a club. A submissive approaches him, offering herself, and how can he refuse the kneeling beauty? They do a whirlwind scene and Ryan is addicted—both to dominance and to her.

Lisette Rinaldo is returning to the BDSM club for the first time since ending a bad relationship with her former master. She spots Ryan and is taken by the combination of self-assurance and nervousness the man displays as he takes in his surroundings. And after he gives her an incredible re-introduction to the lifestyle, she knows she needs to see the man again.

Ryan and Lisette explore each other and the lifestyle, but what started out as playtime quickly evolves into something more. The problem? Ryan isn’t ready to get serious again and Lisette doesn’t want to fall in love with a guy who can’t give all of himself to her. Both of them are going to have to break out of the bonds holding them back from happiness.

A Different Kind of Pain


Title: A Different Kind of Pain
Author: Summer Graystone

Publisher: Indie
Publication Date: June 30, 2015

Rating:
5 *'s

There was just something about them, about the couple in the picture. An ad for a caregiver for a beautiful woman ― a woman who was dying. Though Melia’s sass and rough-around-the-edges attitude meant she couldn’t take every job out there, she should’ve been able to handle this one. There was a problem though ― a big one. The dying woman’s husband, Luka. Those brilliant, haunted eyes of his… did something to her. They were the kind of eyes a girl had no defense against. Maybe she could take the job ― but she wondered if her heart could. Falling for a man she could never have ― and should never have ― was simply wrong, no matter how right she knew it would be. Sure, she needed the pay… but there was a whole lot more at stake here than money.

For Luka, life had become one thing ― waiting. For a cure, for a miracle, for the end. For the one that Susan was convinced would be coming, Of course, he didn’t really believe it, that the plan his beloved wife had cooked up would ever really work. But if she wanted something, he’d move heaven and earth to give it to her. Even this, no matter how much it might hurt, no matter how wrong, how insane the very idea was. Then with one look at the gorgeous Melia, he allowed himself the one thing he’d never allowed himself to feel, not since that final diagnosis. Hope.

Give me this one thing, she’d told him. Give me this one last wish for my husband before I’m gone. Let me leave him a piece of me ― in the form of another woman, another sub to kneel for him, to obey him. To love him. It didn’t matter how much he argued it, how much he refused ― he knew he’d give in, even on this. For though she might have been his in all ways, bent her will to his, and obeyed him as her Master, she was the one who really held the power ― and always had.

Could this crazy plan really work though? Would Luka be able give Susan this one last wish, something more profound, more precious than he ever deserved?

The one thing that none of them were prepared for though, was that love ― and the selfless giving of that love ― could come at a terrible cost... to the heart and the soul.

Warning: Tissues required with purchase of this book

My Review

I wasn't sure what to expect when I started reading A Different Kind of Pain. In the first few pages I felt tears threatening to fall. My heart broke for Luka and Susan. I wanted to cradle Susan and mend Luka's broken heart.

Susan has a fierce spirit about her. In the final days of her life she is determined not to leave her sweet husband without someone. She helps Luka choose her in-home nurse without letting on her plan. 

Luka isn't sure how to even begin preparing for Susan's death. He is clinging to her and unsure where to go from here. 

Melia held a special place in my heart upon first meeting her. She was full of sass and spunk. She brought life into Susan and Luka's home. She became apart of their family and stumbled into love with Luka.

On the brink of losing Susan will Luka find love and peace? I wept for Luka and I loved that this story focused more on Susan and Luka's journey. There is limited sex in this story. Instead you get a wonderful story of healing, hope, and moving forward. This is my absolute favorite Graystone story yet and I hope to see more like this from her. When you reach the end of A Different Kind of Pain you'll want to kiss your loved ones and gain a new appreciation for life.

Bound, Spanked, & Loved- A Valentine's Delight!

As a book reviewer I get the opportunity to work with many authors. Some of the authors featured in Bound, Spanked, & Loved were some of the first ones I started reviewing for. This anthology holds a very dear place in my heart! To get 14 stories for only .99 is a dream! These are all BRAND SPANKING NEW stories written just for your enjoyment!

Excerpt:
(From Theirs to Punish by Renee Rose)

Alex watched the beautiful burglar wrench her hands against the zip ties.

“Easy, love. Those will dig into your flesh if you struggle.”

He would switch to bondage tape when he had a chance, but for the moment, he didn’t trust the little tigress until he had her immobilized. He flipped her to her back where her bound hands lifted her pelvis.
Damn, that turned him on. She turned him on. Dressed in a skintight black catsuit, her long lean body just wouldn’t quit. Funny how when he’d thought the burglar was male he’d been ready to throttle him. Discovering this beautiful waif breaking into his brother’s safe, though… Well, he still wanted to punish her, but only in the most erotic way.

He pulled out his cell phone and dialed his brother Joe. “I caught her.”
“Her?”

His lips stretched into a wolfish smile. His brother would enjoy this one as much as he did. “Mmm hmm. Cutest little cat burglar I’ve ever seen.”

Her cheeks colored in an enchanting blush, and she brought her knees up to kick.

Still holding the phone, he moved swiftly to straddle her, squeezing her legs together between his thighs. Her scent filled his nostrils—sweet, sensual, earthy. Delicious.

“I’ll be right there.”

“We’ll be waiting.” He hit end and looked down at the struggling thief. “Enough.” He gave her face  
a light slap—not with any force, just enough to establish dominance.

Her eyes widened in shock, and suddenly her body fought him in a different way, her hips arching, breasts thrusting toward the ceiling.

Oh, hell yeah. She liked being his prisoner. The situation that had been a pain in his ass just became a lot more interesting.

And da-yum, she didn’t appear to be wearing anything under her skintight black ninja clothes. Her nipples poked up under the thin fabric.

It took all his self-control not to pinch them. He gave his head a quick shake to clear it. “What’s your name, ninja girl?”

A Turbulent Affair


Title: A Turbulent Affair
Author: Sarah Doebereiner

Publisher: Black Opal Books
Publication Date: January 16, 2016

Rating: 3 *'s

They each have a secret that could destroy their relationship…

Crystal and Sylvia are best friends, each the only one the other one trusts. But they each have a dark secret, and neither one knows how to tell the other. Crystal’s secret is that she’s gay and strongly attracted to Sylvia. She wants more than friendship, but she’s afraid to destroy what they already have by letting Sylvia know. And after all, friendship is better than nothing, isn’t it? But Sylvia’s secret is more sinister. It could not only destroy their friendship, it could also hurt Crystal—in more ways than one.

Review:
I loved the bond between Crystal and Sylvia. The trust the two share is something most wish for. Each carries their own dark secret as a the story unfold their secrets come to light which tests the bond between them.

Doebereiner is a new author to me and I did enjoy this story. I just wish for more detail and less dialogue. The story had a strong premise but lacked depth. It felt like I was being told the story instead of experiencing the story. I hope to give Doebereiner another read in the future.

Bailey's Little Adventure


Title: Bailey's Little Adventure
Author: Summer Graystone

Publisher: Stormy Night Publications
Publication Date: June 15, 2015

Rate: 4 *'s

Even though she is an adult with a full-time job, Bailey loves role-playing as daddy’s naughty little girl. Nothing is more fun than dressing like a teen and teasing her husband, who is always ready to punish her properly before pleasuring her more than she would have thought possible. When she discovers that he would like to tie her up so that she is completely vulnerable and at his mercy, she trusts him to keep her safe, even when he pushes her past her comfort zone.

But Bailey’s perfectionism makes her insecure about their relationship, and when she makes a mistake that disappoints her daddy she panics and wonders if she could lose him forever. Can he prove to Bailey that even when things get really hard, he will always be there for his little girl with the love, guidance, and discipline she needs?

Publisher’s Note: Bailey’s Little Adventure contains spankings, sexual scenes, age play, elements of BDSM, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book. This book is also available as part of a five-book collection entitled Little Haven.

Review:
Bailey's Little Adventure is a story of exploration and trust. Bailey has grown comfortable in age playing as a teenager. Her husband and Daddy wants her to explore her submission more in her adult life. While he is happy in their marriage he knows that he needs to push Bailey to explore herself.

Bailey's Little Adventure is different in that you get to see how Bailey transforms as her Daddy pushes her into new boundaries and limits. Of course there is always a little mischief involved but nothing that a firm hand won't solve. I look forward to reading more from Graystone.

The Code of The West


Title: The Code Of The West
Author: Kelly Dawson

Publisher: Stormy Night Publications
Publication Date: November 12, 2015

Rating: 5 *'s

In the years since the tragic death of her parents, Jedda-Lyn Cross has given everything she has to keep the family ranch running. She has grown accustomed to getting no help at all from her alcoholic brother, but when his violent, sadistic friend tries to make Jedda his wife against her will, it is the last straw.

Her attacker is the son of the richest family in the area and the corrupt sheriff stands ready to do his bidding, which leaves Jedda with no alternative but to get out of town in a hurry. With no money and no horse, her best chance of making her escape comes in the form of a soon-to-be-departing cattle drive led by the famous trail boss Wes Jordan. But a young woman has little hope of gaining employment on a cattle drive, so drastic measures are required…

Wes is none too pleased when he discovers that the new drover he hired is actually a beautiful twenty-two-year-old woman disguised as a boy, but after hearing Jedda’s story he promises to protect her. As he quickly realizes, however, that will be easier said than done. Jedda is sassy, headstrong, and in serious need of a good, hard, bare-bottom spanking, and when her reckless disregard for her own safety finally pushes him too far, Wes takes her firmly in hand.

After a painful, humiliating punishment from the handsome trail boss, Jedda is left with her bottom burning and her mind set awhirl. In spite of everything, she aches for Wes to take her in his arms, and when at last he does the pleasure of his skillful, passionate lovemaking nearly takes her breath away. But with her obsessed former suitor and his hired guns still after her, can she bring herself to accept the fact that, for a man like Wes, risking his life to protect the woman he loves is just part of what it means to live by the code of the west?

Publisher’s Note: The Code of the West is a stand-alone sequel to The Ways of the West. It is an erotic romance novel that contains sexual scenes and spankings, including domestic discipline in a historical setting. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

My Review:
I was glued to the pages of The Code of The West. I had to know what would happen to Jedda and if Wes would really stop at nothing to protect her. As I kept reading I laughed, cried, and rooted for Jedda. She runs away under the disguise of a 14 year old boy on the brink of becoming a man to provide for his family. She knows that she could be found out but it is a risk worth taking. Especially when her only other option is to marry the man that almost raped her.

Wes is furious when discovers that "Jed" is actually Jedda. He has a hard time being okay with the fact that he has been pushing her so hard. He falls for her quickly willing to stop at nothing to keep Cal from finding her.

I love reading Dawson's work. I know I'll be in for an adventure and on the edge of my seat. She has instilled a love of Western's in me and I can't wait to read more from her!

All Other Things


Title: All Other Things
Author: Charlotte Stein

Publisher: Ellora's Cave Publishing Inc.
Publication Date: September 21, 2011

Rating: 3 *'s

Bea’s husband Tommy is the sweetest, most gorgeous guy she’s ever met. There’s just one problem—he doesn’t seem to want to have sex with her. Or at least, he shows no interest in the kind of sex she’s craving. Kinky, torrid, passion-filled sex, of the sort a too-handsome and too-fascinating colleague at her workplace is offering.Kieran is everything that Tommy’s not—dark to his light, triple caramel swirl to Tommy’s vanilla. But Bea will not be tempted. Or at least, she thinks she won’t. Until she discovers Tommy and Kieran have been IMing each other for some time—and they haven’t been talking about innocent things.They’ve been talking about her, and more importantly, they’ve been talking about what they’d like to do to her. Together. And once Tommy’s buttons have been pushed and Kieran’s been let off his leash, anything seems possible…

My Review:

I found it hard to stay with All Other Things. Bea and Tommy's relationship seems scattered and at times they are in different places. When comes to introducing Kieran into their life it seems to only scatter the plot more. The sex is hot, I just wish there would have been more communication between the characters and their thoughts.

His Girl, His Rules


Title: His Girl, His Rules
Author: Morganna Williams

Publisher: Stormy Night Publications
Publication Date: March 11, 2015

Rating: 5 *'s

Though Glory Walters writes erotic novels about firm-handed men who know how to deal with feisty women, she’s ashamed to admit she’s never experienced anything of the sort herself. But then she meets Gabriel—Sergeant Gabriel to the men he leads on the local SWAT team, but Master Gabriel to her—and suddenly the scenes in her books don’t seem so far-fetched anymore.

Gabriel has just been going through the motions in life since his wife’s death four years ago, but almost from the moment he sets eyes on her, he wants Glory as his own. Despite never having been taken in hand before, she responds beautifully to a good, hard, bare-bottom spanking, and his dominant lovemaking leaves her breathless. But when Glory foolishly puts herself in extreme danger, she soon discovers that naughty girls who take risks with their safety get their bottoms thoroughly punished… inside and out.


Publisher’s Note: His Girl, His Rules is an erotic novel that contains spankings, sexual scenes, anal play, elements of BDSM, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

My Review:
His Girl, His Rules was fantastic read and I enjoyed getting to know Glory and Gabriel. Gabriel hasn't allowed himself to feel for anyone since he lost his wife four years ago due to cancer. Since then he has been going through the motions until he sees the timid redhead enter the club.

Glory has no clue about the sex she writes. She writes purely from her fantasies not experience. She enters the club purely with though of research only .What she doesn't expect is Gabriel to sweep her up and introduce her into his life.

With some humor His Girl, His Rules kept me in from page one and I knew i would finish it in one sitting. I love William's work and can't wait to sink into her next story.

Her Rock Hard Viking


Title: Her Rock Hard Viking
Author: AJ Tipton

Publisher: Self-Published
Publication Date: December 18, 2014

Rating: 4 *'s

Rock hard was never so literal. 

Over a thousand years ago, a witch hexed a family of Viking warriors, each with one of the four elements. They live with these curses today, doomed to suffer for their past crimes forever. 

Carr, once a proud Viking warrior, is cursed to be the very island he once invaded. He’s lived a thousand years in complete isolation, but when a gorgeous woman parachutes into his life, everything changes. Will her sexual healing finally bring him release? Or will he be forced to choose between his last chance at humanity, and saving the woman he loves? 

Becca never thought to pack lingerie for this trip. She’s a botanist desperately hunting for a last-ditch miracle cure for her dying nephew. The clock is running out when she realizes the island is more than it seems. What’s a woman to do when she discovers her remote island is actually an extremely passionate Viking? 

Go with it. 

This steamy novella for mature readers features island romance, sexy waterfalls, and a love passionate enough to make the earth move. 

This STANDALONE novella is part of the "Her Elemental Viking" series which can be read in any order. There are no cliffhangers, and each short ends as it should: happily ever after.

My Review:
Her Rock Hard Viking drew me with it's unusual premise. A man cursed to live out his days as an island. Carr has grown used to living alone. The island has become his pride and joy and he's found peace in the solitude of the island.

That is until Becca shows up. Looking for a plant that will help save her nephew the island is her last hope. What she doesn't expect is for the island to speak to her in more ways than one. She didn't go looking for love on the island but love found her.

Her Rock Hard Viking is my favorite in the series so far. I really enjoyed the unique concept and look forward to more of Tipton's work.

Sweet Justice

Publication Date: July 26, 2015

Rating: 5 *'s

A dark tale, told from the prospective of a young woman determined to face the fear that dwells within her home...

1960s, America. Tess' mother has disappeared. Then a woman from a neighboring ranch goes missing and Tess' testimony is ignored due to her epilepsy.

Refusing to believe her mother ran away, Tess decides to play a dangerous game. Alone and in secret, she sets a trap.

As reality around her begins to reveal its true, warped nature, Tess becomes a victim of her own deception. The only way is to continue until the end. This story follows Tess as she confronts the shadow side.

Sweet Justice is a psychological suspense and mystery, and a short story of 6000 words.

Sweet Justice is the second in the Tales of the Unexpected, Mystery and Psychological Suspense series.

My Review:

I had goosebumps as I read Sweet Justice. Tess has Epilepsy but it hasn't been diagnosed as that officially. Her mother mysteriously disappeared and she never felt settled with the idea that she just ran off for a better life. She knows better than to believe that.

When she catches her step-father Dirk cleaning blood out of a house claiming to be an animal's castration gone wrong she can't fight that feeling that something has gone wrong. She tries to tell the police what she saw but they think she is misguided in believing that her step-father has killed again.

Determined to take justice into her own hands she sets a trap for a dangerous game of cat and mouse. Sweet Justice although short will capture you from page one and you'll finish in one sitting awaiting the climatic conclusion.

The Officer's Little Rebel


Title: The Officer's Little Rebel
Author: Ava Sinclair

Publisher: Stormy Night Publications
Publication Date: January 7, 2016

Rating: 5 *'s

It’s a bittersweet homecoming for Major Royce Kingsley, who returns from a military campaign to find his family’s proud reputation damaged by the actions of a disinherited brother. But Royce still has his estate, his fortune, and most importantly, his honor. So when a rare moment of indiscretion on his part ends in the drunken seduction of a beautiful, innocent innkeeper’s daughter, he sets out to do the right thing and take the young woman as his wife.

Nineteen-year-old Imogen vowed long ago that she would never make the mistake her mother did by trusting a man—any man—to treat her kindly. When Royce informs her that he is going to marry her, her first instinct is to resist. But Royce is not a man to be put off from doing what he believes is right, and Imogen’s defiance merely earns her a painful, embarrassing bare-bottom spanking from the handsome officer.

Royce quickly realizes that Imogen is in desperate need of both firm-handed discipline and gentle, loving care, and he decides that she will be returned to the nursery until he is certain she is truly ready to be his wife and the mistress of a large estate. Soon enough, Imogen is blushing crimson as she is stripped bare, bathed thoroughly, dressed as a little girl, and spanked soundly whenever she is naughty.

Despite her best efforts, Imogen cannot resist her body’s utterly shameful response to her future husband’s dominance. As she is made to surrender herself to Royce ever more intimately, each quivering climax only increases her need for him to claim her completely. The peace she soon feels as Royce’s little girl is unlike anything she has experienced before, but can Imogen trust her new papa to protect her when an old enemy plots to tear her from his loving arms forever?


Publisher’s Note: The Officer’s Little Rebel is an erotic romance novel that includes spankings, sexual scenes, age play, anal play, and more. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.

My Review:
The Officer's Little Rebel is a rags to riches sort of story. Imogen's step-father is an abusive man putting her out to any man willing. When Officer Royce comes to his inn to celebrate his home coming he becomes drunk. Believing Imogen to be the whore that her father states he ends up taking her virginity. As the good man he is, he decides to right his wrong and wed Imogen.

From the start Imogen is determined not to let Royce in. She will not trust him and will definitely not be marrying him. As she transforms into his little girl, she realizes that maybe he isn't like all other men.

Sinclair has developed a knack for writing historical age play. She draws you in with a wonderful back story and a firm hand. Reading Sinclair's work has given me the chance to get into historical erotica because I know I will not be disappointed. The Officer's Little Rebel is nothing short of a great story. I loved watch Imogen grow and along the way Royce learning about himself as well.

Daisy: Wildflowers of Montana


Author: Vanessa Vale

Publisher:  Vanessa Vale
Publication Date: January 4, 2016

Rating: 5 *s

Daisy Lenox has always felt invisible next to her beautiful and vivacious sisters. But one man changed all that. The new town doctor, Ethan James, watches her with an intensity that quickly turns her curiosity to obsession. He's the first man to encourage her bluestocking ways, and the first to offer a stern reprimand when she needs it. Daisy knows his firm commands should offend, but to her shock, they make her feel protected and cared for. Ethan James makes her feel...alive. But Doctor James is keeping secrets, and Daisy is determined to find out the truth at any cost. When Daisy follows the unsuspecting doctor out of town, her obsession causes her to slip ever so close to death. And although the doctor manages to save her life, it comes at a high price for them both...marriage.

Ethan James might be new to the Montana Territory, but he's very familiar with the world's evils. A battle hardened Southerner, he's witnessed enough death and destruction to last a lifetime. He came out West to escape the ghosts of his past and to start a new life, a life in which he will maintain firm control of his medical practice and his honor. He is sworn to heal, and offering much needed medical services to the native tribe is his something he feels he must do. But local prejudice and hatred are hard foes to fight, so he keeps his actions secret...until Daisy Lenox follows him into the wild and nearly gets herself killed.

Ethan isn't sure she'll survive, and although he treats her naked flesh with the detached eyes of a healer, the man in him remembers her intelligent eyes, and her soft acceptance of his dominating ways. Once he's knows that she'll survive, he is determined to ensure she never takes such a chance with her life again, and gives her a taste of discipline with a bare bottom spanking meant to make her see the error of her ways. But something happens, and Daisy melts under his command, unable to resist his firm hand or his need for control. Her acceptance and trust awaken a need so strong that Ethan knows there is only one thing he can do to protect both her innocent desire to submit and her reputation, marry her.

Review

Daisy has become smitten with Dr. James. She feels noticed for the first time in a long time often hiding behind her sisters shadows. When she is convinced that there is something Dr. James isn't telling her she puts her health at risk and follows him into wild and barely escapes death.

Ethan James isn't sure his spitfire will survive but he's determined to help nurse her back to health. To keep from putting the Indian's at risk and to explain Daisy's absence, Ethan does the only reasonable thing he can think of. Marry Daisy.

With Ethan's firm hand and Daisy's easy submission they are sure to learn more about themselves than ever before. Vale has a way of writing historical erotica that doesn't make the reader feel the drag that some historical novels have. I really enjoyed the joy ride I went on as Daisy discovered her need to submit to Ethan and Ethan's need to keep her safe at all costs.

A Smattering of Darkness


Title: A Smattering Of Darkness
Author: Alisha "Priti" Kirpalani

Publisher:  The Priquill; 2 edition
Publication Date: December 23, 2015

Rating: 5 *'s

A collection of short stories of varying lengths encapsulating the grey shades of the human psyche. A riveting and deep journey into the minds of a terminally ill man, a battered wife, a mysterious teacher amongst other flawed but ever so human protagonists. Surprise endings, cheeky resolutions and thought provoking finales are characteristic of this anthology. Ranging from one line to full length, each story leaves a lingering impact that resonates long after the page is turned.

Review

I love how even though this is supposed to be a darker collection of stories it is has an underlying theme of hope and desperation. We journey into the deep minds of sorrow and loss. The stories leave you wanting more.

Kirpalani has a way with words that draw you in. I felt tears well up as I continued reading on. I started this unsure if I'd be able to finish reading it but the more I read the more I was drawn in. Each story ends somewhat abruptly but leaves a window open where these stories could be come their own.

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this collection and would love to read more of Kirpalani's work.

And Ethan can’t do vanilla, especially with a woman he can’t stop thinking about owning.In a box hidden under her bed, Violet hides her submissive fantasies. No one has ever guessed her true desires and she intends to keep it that way. Modern-day women do not want to be tied up, spanked and ordered about.When Ethan discovers Violet’s secret, he sets out to give her a taste of true submission in one whirlwind night, but will the reality be too much to handle? Or will Violet finally see Ethan in a whole new light?

Review
Ethan is done crushing on Violet. He has played the role of her best friend for too long and is ready to take the next step. He is convinced that she isn't submissive until he sees what she is hiding under her bed.

Violet can't believe that Ethan has discovered her secret desires. She can't fathom a relationship let alone him dominating her. When he pushes for more she has to decide. Pursue her submission or let it stay on the back burner?

I loved how Ethan and Violet's relationship evolved and watching them both journey down the rabbit hole. I will definitely be reading more of Devlin's work.
