DRAWN


Drawn by Lilliana Anderson

OUR REVIEW

♥️♥️♥️♥️


Wow what a read!!! I have to say I was sucked into the story from about 3 chapters in and I finished it in one night!! Etta is a daddy's girl and a whiz kid who is studying her 3rd year at the university when she finally gets the nerve to move out of her parents house. Her friend Aaron is her rock and best friend who's been in love with her for a long time. When making a trip to his new apartment she goes to the wrong door and is greeted by his very hot neighbor Damien. Pasts are troubled and an explosive relationship ensues between Etta and Damien. Some say unhealthy I say a bit unstable but loving in their own way none the less... This story has drama with a capital D and hot panty melting sex!! Great read

Hard As It Gets 
by 
Laura Kaye


OUR REVIEW
4 KISSES

"I want you to remember my voice saying this while you're out there tonight I love you" He stroked her hair and kissed her temple "I could never forget"


 I have wanted to read this one for a while now. When I read the synopsis it captured me.
 This story had it all for me a hot alpha male, sexual tension, great banter and suspense.

 Nick Rixey is total Alpha Male. He is a former Army special ops soldier who is now working with his brother Jeremy at Hard Ink as a tattoo artist. There is a lot that had happened to him a year before that had him released from his service and he cant seem to forgive himself for it.

 Becca Merritt is the daughter of Nicks former Commander. She is searching for her brother who has gone missing, a note leads her to Nick and she is in desperate need of his help.
 There was a great connection between Nick and Becca and Laura was able to write such a great relationship between them. Just enough sexual tension, love and loyalty. Laura also captures you with all the other characters involved. Jeremy (Nicks brother) is hysterical whenever he talks you find yourself smiling. The other soldiers who come into play all find a place in your heart.

 You try to figure out what is happening and why and I was on the edge of my seat to see if Charlie (Beccas brother) will be saved in time. The only down fall I have with this book is its a TO BE CONTINUED... ugh another one I have to wait until March 2014 to find out what happens! UGH other than that I really enjoyed this one.

OUR REVIEW!

4 Kisses

I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I must admit I am always partial to billionaires! This book was a little slow to get into but when I did it hooked me! It broke my heart when Blake walked out on Lana when he found out she was a virgin and it made my heart swell when Blake upgraded Lana's mother's plane ticket to first class. I really loved Billie, she is a smart assed fun girlfriend who I would love to have in my corner.. the part about what she did to her girlfriend was hysterical.. I thought more would come from Jack but I happy where the characters are going. I can't wait for book 2... you should one click this one..

Sex In The Title

By Zack Love

4 Stars!!!

I have to say I was a little unsure about how to take this book.. it being written by a man and all.. but Zack knocked it out of the proverbial park for me.. it had lots of humor and I found myself laughing out loud at a lot of parts. Not only does this story take place in a time when we weren't as "connected" as we are now but it kinda brings back memories of the time then..
This is the story of 5 men.. Evan is the first one we meet after he is fired via email and dumped by his girlfriend via email as well.. If I was Evan I wouldn't even open my email for awhile. He kinda has a black cloud over him for a while.. 
Next there's Sammy (Heeb) he is a short chubby Jewish guy with little self esteem but a heart of gold. 
There is Trevor a hot black English man who is everything you don't expect him to be, sweet and humble... 
Then there is Carlos ( lucky Chucky)... gorgeous but man are his expectations in left field when it comes to the perfect woman.. 
Then we have Yi Wang (Narc) tall handsome and athletic... he gets the nickname Narc because he loves to try the latest narcotics.. fitting right.. 
All of the men go through ups and downs in their own ways ... There are hysterical moments where I had to cross my legs because I was laughing so hard and there are times when you say... Oh god tell me he's not going to do that.
Over all I recommend this book to anyone who asked me about it.. You should add it on your tbr and one-click it...

A Woman Gone Mad

A WOMAN GONE MAD 
By KIMBER DAWN 

Synopsis:

Forget everything you know about fairytales. There comes a point in a woman's life when she realizes not everyone gets a happy ending.

And no one knows this better than Lillian Shaw.

The safety of a small southern upbringing and a happy normal family couldn't keep life from chipping away at her.

And nothing leaves its mark like the bite of a broken heart.

Blow after blow, Lillian tries to stay optimistic, but when faced with a choice that could destroy her future, she gives in to the temptation.

When your first true love comes crashing into your happily ever after, you're supposed to walk away. Not fall back in love. 

But saying no to Leo was something Lillian could never do...

Once lines are crossed is there any going back? 

Or is the risk that Lillian Shaw takes going to leave her broken again... 

And this time be enough to make her A Woman Gone Mad?

***Warning: This is not a shy and tender fairytale love story. It's a raw, tragic, and gritty story inspired by true events. This book is not for the faint of heart, it contains graphic language, sex, violence, and drug use. MATURE Audiences Only. Not intended for young adult readers.***



















Author Bio:

What the hell is up y'all?! I'm Kimber, and I really freaking hope y'all enjoy AWGM! If you get a chance, throw me a review up on my FB page, www.facebook.com/AWGMbyKimberDawn or Goodreads if you loved it! I am a whore for reviews. 
Ahh... let's see, what can I tell you about my self... Well, first of all I'm a straight up whore for many, many things. I'm a wine whore, some would say I'm a functional alcoholic, and I'm totally cool with that title. Now the day my cheese completely falls off my cracker and I lose the functional in that title, well yeah never mind. Even then I'll deny that shit. I'm a whore for Victoria's Secret, no seriously, like my VS Angel's Credit Card stays maxed out, hey, they got cool shit. I have a whole lot of hats, meaning I can be called a billon different things, daughter, wife, mother, labor unit nurse, I sell pussy on the side *coughs* that would be persian kittens, thank you you dirty minded scoundrel, I'm also compulsive blackjack addict, book blogger, book pimp, book whore, Jack Daniels is my favorite boyfriend and my biggest dream, the day I'll acknowledge that I've succeeded in life and can a die a happy woman is the day I get to go two stark naked hour round sexual bouts with Jason Statham. *Sighs* I started writing poems and short stories very early in my life, you know for the Michael's and Leo's and Nick's in my life. I've been a book hoarder since I was eleven years old, but then a couple years ago something wonderful happened! The 50 shades of Grey craze brought to life my inner smut whore where I commenced to read anything and everything smut affiliated. When reading wasn't enough any anymore and I noticed that so many of the authors of my favorite books weren't getting the exposure their work deserved I turned it into a mission, starting my own blog, buying their books and reading them one by one, I then wrote my reviews for my blog and didn't hold back in writing them. I've never done a single thing in my life half way, I always go all in. After the success of my Blog, and the insistence of one of my bestest friends, my sister from another mister, Trina Taylor of Bad & DirtyBooks I was ready to finally take the plunge and write the story that's been restlessly clawing to get out of my head and onto paper for a VERY long time. I'm a southern girl to my core, a self proclaimed smut whore, and I guess now we can add aspiring author to my hat collection as well. 
Tattooed across my ribs are the words I have always lived by 'Aut viam inveniam aut faciam tibi' Latin for: If I can not find a way, I will make my own.

Private North Blog Tour w/ Review

Private North Book Cover

Synopsis:

New Adult Contemporary Romance An internship cataloguing ancient pottery. A war-hardened soldier who’s impossible to resist. A priceless Egyptian artifact. And a devious scheme that is fraught with danger. Antiquities major, Auggie Stonefield, is about to experience a winter break she will never forget.   Add to Goodreads

Dalton North POV:

This isn't in the book, Tess has written it just for the blog tour for us.
The throbbing in my head took my mind off the relentless pain in my leg. It had become my sort of twisted way of dealing with the constant agony. Get drunk enough for a skull-pounding hangover and it dulled everything else. I made a stupid-ass attempt to mask the uneven sounds of my footsteps, but the wooden hallway floor made it pretty damn laughable. I wasn’t even completely sure why it mattered, except that I knew the girl was standing just around the corner in the kitchen. I’d heard her silky laugh twice before I’d even left my bedroom. She stood in the kitchen helping with breakfast. Long auburn hair cascaded down the back of her sweater and I could see only the side of her face as she smiled sweetly at my dad. I’d been in a desert that was so hot just taking a breath hurt, a place where you learned not to trust even your own shadow, a place that could only be described as hell, and the only way to survive the nightmare of it all was to believe that somewhere else in another place, another time, another dimension angels existed. And now I’d come home and found one standing over the waffle iron in the kitchen. She looked up as I entered the room and that was all it took. I could not look away. Her thin fingers trembled almost imperceptibly as she tucked her hair behind her ear. I dragged a chair out from the table and sat down hard and watched her. She grew more and more flustered by my scrutiny but I couldn’t stop myself. She was a piece of heaven that had floated in through the darkness and I wanted to watch her. And, even though she nearly bit through her plump, highly kissable bottom lip with agitation . . . it seemed . . . that deep down she wanted me to watch her.

Book Excerpt:

I pulled the cover up to my chin like I’d done as a young girl when I was certain the closet monsters were coming out to get me, but I couldn’t relax enough to sleep. The house was quiet and dark again. I climbed back into my slippers. I peeked out into the hallway and everything was still. I tiptoed to the kitchen hoping a glass of milk would make me sleepy. I scuttled around the corner, and a gasp stuck in my throat. The refrigerator door was open, and the light pouring out illuminated his broad bare back, showing every line of hard muscle . . . and every small scar. There were many. His pajama pants hung low on his narrow hips, and I stood as quiet as a mouse for a guilty second and stared at his incredible physique. He still had not heard me, and I wondered if he was still lost in the agony of his bad dream. I tiptoed without a sound, but as I neared he seemed to sense me. He continued to stare into the refrigerator as if he expected something to jump out into his hands. “I’m sorry if I woke you.” “Please don’t apologize.” His shoulders tensed as I moved closer to him. Even in front of an open refrigerator, heat rolled off of him in searing waves. He shut the door but didn’t turn around. He leaned his forehead against the freezer door. I stepped closer. My hand trembled slightly as I reached up and touched him. The muscles of his back tightened and then relaxed. I trailed my fingers over the tiny scars that were splattered across his shoulders. The tiny ridges were hard, and I could feel the pain of each one in my fingertips. I stood on my toes and lowered my mouth to his skin. He sucked in a sharp breath as I pressed my lips to the scars. I kissed him over and over again wanting to absorb the pain that still clung to him physically and mentally. And he let me kiss him. His broad shoulders lifted and fell with each shallow breath as I ran my lips across his marred skin.

Private North 
By Tess Oliver
4 stars

This was a great short read.. it had lots of hot steamy sex between a rich book worm and an injured Hometown Hero. Private North is the story of Dalton and August (Auggie). Dalton is a sexy soldier who has been struggling to find his path after his return home from a tour in Iraq where he not only was injured but lost his best friend. Drowning out the pain with alcohol and pain medication is not working anymore, nothing seems to be working, that is until he meets Auggie. 
Auggie is a rich girl with an interest in Egyptian artifacts, she is studying under Professor North at college. When her family decides they aren't going to have a normal Christmas instead they are going abroad for the holidays. Auggie wants no part of that instead she takes a job with Professor North at his house cataloging artifacts with his "big man on campus" son Ethan. In route to the Professors house she almost runs over a man walking on the road, little did she know that man would turn her world upside down. 
This story had hot sex in a winter wonderland and in front of a fireplace, it had drama and suspense.. over all a good read.

COUNTDOWN TO RELEASE OF WITHOUT DOUBT
BY CJ AZEVEDO





Without Doubt Synopsis


Ava Sterling is tough and the most straight laced girl you will ever meet. Her family and her past have managed to alter her future permanently and she has no desire to allow anyone else into her life or her heart for fear of rejection or further altering.  Ava is alone in the world with the exception of the grandest responsibility she did not create on her own but on her own she will carry for the rest of her life.

Declan James is a MMA fighter, party all night kind of guy. Responsibility is nowhere to be found in his life or so he allows everyone around him to believe. Coming from wealth and a carefree lifestyle, Declan gets what he wants, always. And what he wants is Ava. In his pursuit of getting what he wants, Ava in his bed, his plan changes quickly without his consent. Against his plans of being the next hot bachelor to cross the tabloids as he makes his way to being the Ultimate Light Heavyweight Champion, Declan falls in love. He falls in love without hesitation and without doubt.

Neither Declan nor Ava are aware that fate has inconveniently intertwined their lives forever. Will they be able to survive the aftermath of the truth?





AUTHOR BIO

 CJ has lived all over the state of California, Central, South, North and finally landing back somewhere in the middle. She married the boy she fell for when she was only eleven years old and together they have two beautiful heathens. CJ obviously loves to read and write. She can watch the Giant’s play baseball but hates football. She bakes when she’s sad, runs when she’s mad and dances when she’s happy (even if she cant find a rhythm to save her life) If you’re looking for her and can’t seem to find her, look on the staircase, it’s her favorite spot to read.



EXCERPT
Ava sits up and straddles her legs on either side of my waist and takes a deep breath. “I hated everything about tonight.”
“About my fight?” I ask because I’m not sure I’m following her. Is she upset about Ashton or my reaction to them being together at the fight? She nods her head without looking at me so I sit up and wrap my arms around her. “I’m fine, babe. I’m really good at what I do, the chances of me getting really hurt are slim.”
She pops her head up quickly and narrows her eyes at me. “There is nothing funny about this, Declan! You scared the shit out of me!!” she exclaims just before punching me in the arm.
“Ow! What was that for?” I rub out the little sting on my bicep while mostly holding back a laugh, but I can’t hide my smile.
She quiets down but her eyes are terrified. “He kicked you in the head,” she whispers so softly I can hardly hear her. I have to laugh; I can’t help it.
“He kicked me in my head?” Did this surprise her?
“YES! Do you not remember that?” Her response is pure fear and I hate that I put that look on her face and that feeling in her heart.
“Yeah, I remember, Sunshine.” I smooth her hair away from her face and kiss her soundly. “I should have explained things to you, on how the fights work, what to expect. I would have if I knew you were going to show up, but I honestly thought that you were dead set against ever coming to one.”
Ava sighs. “I was, but then I felt like I wasn’t supporting you by not being there for you and I didn’t want you thinking that.”
I guide her backwards so she’s lying down with her head at the foot of the bed. I lean forward and slip my hands up her smooth thighs, placing small, lingering kisses along the way. My hands reach her hips and I’m reminded that she’s only wearing a nightie. “Hmmm, I love you so much. You are the sexiest woman I have ever known, Sunshine.” My hot breath whispers across her hip bones and over the skin just above her panty line (if she were wearing any). “I love the way you care about things other people don’t even take the time to think about.” My tongue draws a line up her abdomen, following her rising nightie. Her breathing has changed; it’s harsher and more rapid and I can’t get enough of it. My tongue swirls around her navel. “You make me so happy,” I kiss along her rib cage, “no matter what,” my tongue runs underneath her breast, “you don’t ever have to see another fight,” I kiss between her cleavage and slip her nightie off as I drag the tip of my nose to her ear, “just please don’t be upset over what I do. Don’t worry. Please? I need you, Ava, I need you like the air I breathe.” My tongue slides on the outer rim of her ear and I place a delicate kiss to her temple. I’m on top of her in a second, my elbows on either side of her head. My mouth connects with hers and although she has tears streaming down her face, there is no hesitation in her kiss.
Ava makes me feel like the word “love” was established just for us. Her and I. Me and her. I know that I would do anything for her, even become a damn accountant if that’s what she wished for on a bright, shining star. I would. It would be the toughest thing to possibly imagine but it wouldn’t be impossible. Surviving the loss of my relationship with her? That would be impossible.

OUR REVIEW

FIVE STAR MUST READ 

Wow... this book was fantastic. Seriously I rank this on my top five books of 2013.
...
Ellie is a normal girl who is trying her hardest to get out of the spotlight. She has been perceived as a slut and a gold digger all over a partial video aired on you tube. She has lost her dream job hasn't been able to catch a break and all she wants is to hide. Then she falls flat on her face in front of the man of her dreams. 
Mason Nash is looking for some peace and quiet. He has been working nonstop for the last five years and just wants a break. He isn't looking for love... love is something he doesn't want at all until he hears a thump coming from his bathroom and finds the beautiful, funny Ellie Wagner. Whats even better is Ellie has no idea that Mason Nash is a famous hip hop artist. 

Will their love last when Ellie is now thrown in front of the cameras again? Will they be able to survive the drama that will come? 
This story honestly had me smiling from page one. I couldn't put this down and read it within two hours. It had it all. Drama, love, sexual tension and sweet banter between Ellie and Mason. There are times this story had me laughing out loud and also times that I had tears in my eyes. This story is awesome I absolutely cant say it enough that this book is fantastic and a A MUST READ. Add this to your TBR list and one click it today.
Thank you Elisabeth Grace for your wonderful work!!! ** HALO

There is no way to describe how much I truly loved this book... and the whole series...I stumbled upon this book by a friends recommendation and fell head over heals in love with Drew and Fable. The undeniable connection they had was great the sexual tension and passion they shared was awesome too... This story left me SHOCKED FRUSTRATED and in DESPERATION for book 2... Monica Murphy did an amazing job of sucking me in from the very beginning~Horns

Temporary. That one single word best describes my life these last few years. I’m working at a temporary job until I can finally break free. I’m my little brother’s temporary mother since our mom doesn’t give a crap about either of us. And I’m that temporary girl all the guys want to get with because I give it up so easily. According to the rumors, at least.

He’s brought me into this fake life where everyone seems to hate me. And everyone seems to want something from him. The only thing he seems to want though is…

Me.

Excerpt
We’re leaping through the air feet first, the rain falling down on us as we’re suspended above the water below. It’s only five feet down, but somehow I see the pink toenail polish on her feet and the sheen of her legs. Then I see her feet hit the water before I do. I’m holding my breath now, anticipating the cold rush of water around my whole body. And it feels surreal, the rain pummeling my body as I jump off this cliff with the girl I fell in love with when I was seventeen. To say that I’m falling all over again is cliché and mushy and hopelessly romantic, but it’s true. And even though it’s just mere seconds that we’re suspended in the air, it feels like forever that we’re dangling there together. I’ve never seen my life and future as clear as I do now as I inch toward the water. Whatever happens in the next seventy-odd years that I plan on living, the only thing that matters is that Piper Sullivan is with me. I won’t ever let go of this hand. The water crashes over me then, consuming me with a coldness that sends shockwaves through my body. My head ducks under momentarily before I pop back up to see Piper’s head emerging next to me. Her eyes are wide and wet with surprise as she exhales, sputtering water in front of her. She lets out a shriek, “Oh my God, it’s so cold!” “Hell yeah it is,” I reply as I kick my legs to stay afloat. Our heads bob in water that can’t be any more than sixty degrees, and I realize that we’re not holding hands anymore because we’re both treading water. I swim toward her until our faces are just an inch apart. The rain splashes against the water between us, plopping small splatters of water onto her chin. We’re both breathing hard as I reach underneath the water and wrap my arm around her waist. I feel the lace tucked against her skin and pull her closer until our bodies are rubbing against each other. “Warm me up,” she whispers. “I thought you’d never ask,” I say as I press my lips onto hers. They’re warm and soft, and a jolt rushes through my body as I connect with her. Our lips move against each other, slow for only a moment until we’re frantic against each other. She bites my lower lip gently again and damn, does it feel good. Let’s be honest, it sends me overboard. I explore every inch of her lips and mouth as both of us still bob in the icy water. She reaches for me, putting her arm around my waist and guides her legs toward me. She circles her legs around my waist, and I’m holding her then as she sits on me. She rocks closer to me as I kick to keep us both above water. And I realize that the only thing between us are two thin, so unbelievable thin, layers of fabric. I can feel the goose bumps running along her legs. I hold her there as our lips find each other in the rain. The water crashes down behind us from the waterfalls, the dull thud of splatters echoing in my ears. A glint of brightness lights up the sky for a brief moment, and I see her face like I’ve never seen it before. It’s full of desire and longing and bliss, and I swear, I catch a glimpse of love. I think for a second that maybe, just maybe Piper Sullivan loves me.

Synopsis

I am not a good man.
I have lied and cheated and stolen. I've decided between life or death, like it was my due. None of it matters, not anymore. These are not my sins.
I see her raise her hands, the dark metal she's clutching reflecting the moonlight. Her finger trembles as she cocks the gun pointed at me. Her eyes are cold, determined, but I know.
I know her.
My name is Devon Andre and I confess my sin. I am not a good man because this is the woman I love.
She pulls the trigger.
* Standalone contemporary romance. * Mature reader advised due to sexual content and strong language.

Vendetta Teaser 3

Excerpt

“Fuck,” he curses, taking in the weapon. I squeeze it in my hand and try to swing again, letting him know I won’t give it up. “You’re going to hurt yourself.” He pries the shard out of my clenching fingers, and then puts his hand around my neck, squeezing. Warning. “You move, and I’ll fucking kill you,” he growls, strengthening his grip. I let my body go limp. He looks at his hand around my throat, and then his eyes find mine. I try to swallow, but he's practically suffocating me. He snatches his hand away and I gasp for air. “I didn’t even think of the fucking mirror,” he mutters to himself, sounding shocked, and maybe even a little impressed. He pulls out some rope from his back pocket. His fucking pocket. The man is psychotic.

About the Authors

Sienna Lane and Autumn Karr are two friends with a joint love of reading, writing, candy, and Disney heroes (and Disney songs, of course.) When they aren’t scheming against fictional characters, or talking about their favourite books, you can find them ogling tattooed models and trying to figure out how to get them to do a cover shoot for their next book. Together they wrote VENDETTA, releasing this December, and hopefully many more books to come.They love to hear from readers, so don't hesitate to contact them through their Facebook page (http://on.fb.me/18TGRU9).
