Jill's Review of On His Knees by Laura Kaye ~ BLOG TOUR ~ GIVEAWAY ~

   

Decadent… Sensual… Forbidden…

 

Meet the Masters of Blasphemy…

   

About ON HIS KNEES (Blasphemy #5):

Getting on his knees makes him question everything…and want even more…

Another failed relationship has lawyer Jamie Fielding confronting the truth—he’ll never be satisfied with any woman until he admits what he needs…to submit and to be used—hard. When a friend invites him to the exclusive Blasphemy club, Jamie is stunned to find everything he ever wanted—in the fierce, ruthless hands of a man.

Psychiatrist Alex McGarry will play with anyone who craves his rough brand of domination, but what he really wants is to settle down. Which makes the submissive male he meets at his club a bad idea—the man might be hot as hell but he’s also new to everything Alex has to offer. Except that doesn’t keep them from coming together again and again, sating every one of their darkest desires.

Master Alex sets Jamie’s whole world on fire and makes him question everything—and that’s good. Because Alex won’t tolerate hiding what they have for long and he wants much more than just having Jamie on his knees...

EXCERPT

Breathing hard and shaking with arousal, Alex eased the two of them down to the floor so that he could hold Jamie in his arms. “Come here, Jamie. Rest on me.”

Jamie’s sluggish movements revealed that he was still riding the physical and emotional waves of the scene, so Alex helped turn him until he was cradled against his chest. And then Jamie released a breath that resounded with such utter contentment that it reached inside Alex’s chest.

Christ. Christ. The way Jamie had taken his beating. The way he’d reveled in the pain of it. Alex’s twisted sadist heart was flying, because what they’d just shared had been perfection.

“Talk to me. Are you okay?” Alex asked, his gaze raking over the relaxed lines of the sub’s handsome face and the almost sleepy appearance of his gray eyes. Before, he’d thought Jamie hot. Now, seeing him totally sated because of the pain Alex had given him, he thought him beautiful.

“I—I have never felt better in my whole life.” His voice was little more than a raw scrape, but the emotion behind the words came through crystal fucking clear. “All this time…all this time I thought something was wrong with me. When I just needed this.” Those gray eyes slanted up at him. “And you.”

Damn if the guy wasn’t riding pretty damn close to subspace, a euphoric altered state of mind that some submissives achieved due to the overwhelming rush of endorphins and adrenaline that spiked and receded during intense BDSM scenes. So Alex wasn’t going to take the adoration in that steel gaze too much to heart. 

“You handled that so perfectly,” Alex said, wiping away the wetness of tears or sweat—or both—from Jamie’s face. Doing so emphasized the warm heat still filling Alex’s palm. He freaking relished it and the quiet, calm peace in his mind that he hadn’t felt in far too long.

“I did?” When Alex nodded, Jamie smiled. “Thank you.” His lids sagged, then snapped back open. “Thank you, Sir.”  

Alex chuckled. “How was the intensity of that for you, Jamie? Did you feel you were nearing your limit?”

He shook his head. “Even though it hurt and I started to feel…shattered, I was green. I was green the whole time.”

Jesus. Master Alex brought Jamie’s cuffed hand to his mouth and kissed his knuckles. “I think you can switch out the light blue ribbon for the dark.”

Jamie’s eyes went wide, like Alex had just surprised him with a gift. “Really, Sir?”

See? There was just no questioning the sincerity of Jamie’s pleasure, the intensity of his satisfaction, nor how profoundly experiencing his first sadomasochistic scene had affected him. Still affected him. And, in turn, Alex, too. Because when had he last seen such unadulterated elation? When had he last witnessed such a pure example of the freeing power of this lifestyle? When had anyone he’d played with recently found so much of themselves in a scene?





 REVIEWED BY JILL

5 sinfully sexy stars for - On His Knees - book four in the Blasphemy series by Laura Kaye. This book, like the others isn’t very long, but it packs a complete story that leaves you more than satisfied. The series revolves around a club that caters to a clientele that is all about BDSM. This is also a steamy MM love story so if you aren’t comfortable with man-on-man love or a considerable amount of kink you may want to pass on this gem by Ms. Kaye.
Jaime Fielding has a safe, albeit a bit boring job as a patent lawyer. With his thirtieth birthday around the corner he can’t help but feel like there is something missing from his life. After yet another failed attempt at a relationship he heads to Hard Ink to let his friend/tattooist - Jeremy - punish him for a while. Prior to leaving the shop Jeremy mentions how much Jaime likes the pain and how a masochist like him would enjoy a club like Blasphemy. Jaime having never heard the term before does intense research on masochism and finally feels like all the times he’s had those strange thoughts or odd ideas now make sense and he can’t wait to explore it all.
Alex McGarry - one of the twelve masters at Blasphemy is a true sadist that thoroughly used to enjoy playing with both male and female subs, but he has become rather jaded lately and is questioning if he wants to continue. His friend and co-dominant asks him to introduce a conditional new member to the club and show him around. Alex is annoyed with his friend when he realizes the guy is brand new to kink, but screams masochist loud and clear. Alex doesn’t want to be set up with anyone let alone someone who has no idea what he’s getting into, but this man calls to him on a visceral level that his body reacts to desperately.
This was by far my favorite in the series and since I loved them all I wish I could give it more than five stars! This one gave me all the feels - from laughing to crying and at one point even busting out a fan it was so smoking hot! Master Hale is up next and I can’t wait!

Jill's Review of Justice by K.C. Lynn ~ RELEASE BLITZ ~ GIVEAWAY ~



TITLE: JUSTICE: CREED BROTHERS BOOK ONE

AUTHOR: KC LYNN

RELEASE DAY: FEBRUARY 21, 2018






BLURB:

Fate made us brothers, loyalty made us family.

A bond that runs deeper than the Mississippi, my brothers and I might not have the same DNA but what we share is far more powerful. Our loyalty to one another and the man who made us a family is stronger than those bound by blood.

The most sought out sharp shooters in the country, our paths were certain, before one woman changed my life and altered the relationship I have with my brothers.

Ryanne Lockwood disappeared without a trace but her memory never faded, torturing me on the darkest nights. Until a twist of fate leads me back to her, sending our worlds to collide once more, and this time, there will be no escaping me.
***
Justice Creed’s bad boy appeal caught my attention from the moment he rolled into town. For years I watched from afar, swallowing up the rumors that surrounded him.

Until we shared a night of forbidden passion. One that destroyed my heart and reshaped my soul, and it sent me fleeing from the only town I’ve ever known.

Now, years later, he's barged back into my life, uncovering a secret I've worked so hard to keep and it's one that will change our lives forever.

REVIEWED BY JILL
4 stars 

Justice - book one in the brand new Creed Brothers series by K.C. Lynn. Three boys from three totally separate yet heart breaking situations were placed in foster care, but after a time they chose to run away together and form their own family when the system which was supposed to save them instead let them down over and over again. 
Ryanne Lockwood fell hard and fast for Justice Creed the minute he came to town. Now years later on her eighteenth birthday she knows exactly what she wants for her birthday and he’s the only one that can give it to her. Ryanne wants to give herself to Justice in every way and hopes he will take her up on her offer before she chickens out. 
Justice has never once allowed himself to touch Ryanne, not only because of her age but also because of how much of a good girl she was. With her turning eighteen and asking so sweetly to make love to her, he literally can’t help but succumb to the charms of the beautiful woman. Too bad she disappears out of his life a month later and he doesn’t see her again for six long years either. So many things change in that time neither Justice or Ryanne are the same people they used to be and they have to figure out what matters the most since they have more than just their feelings to worry about.
This is the start of what looks to be another epic romance with lots of mystery and drama. With his brothers having a penchant for ménage sex I can’t wait for both their stories too. I have a feeling Knox’s story especially will be nothing short of perfection!

More Than Love You by Shayla Black ~ BLOG TOUR ~

2018-SBPRBANNER-MTLY-BT.jpg

More Than Love You, an all-new sexy romance from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Shayla Black is available NOW !

03 MoreThanLoveYou



I’m Noah Weston. For a decade, I’ve quarterbacked America’s most iconic football team and plowed my way through women. Now I’m transitioning from star player to retired jock—with a cloud of allegation hanging over my head. So I’m escaping to the private ocean-front paradise I bought for peace and quiet. What I get instead is stubborn, snarky, wild, lights-my-blood-on-fire Harlow Reed. Since she just left a relationship in a hugely viral way, she should be the last woman I’m seen with.
On second thought, we can help each other…
I need a steady, supportive “girlfriend” for the court of public opinion, not entanglements. Harlow is merely looking for nonstop sweaty sex and screaming orgasms that wring pleasure from her oh-so-luscious body. Three months—that’s how long it should take for us both to scratch this itch and leave our respective scandals behind. But the more I know this woman, the less I can picture my life without her. And when I’m forced to choose, I’ll realize I don’t merely want her in my bed or need her for a ruse. I more than love her enough to do whatever it takes to make her mine for good.
More Than Love You is a sexy and emotional standalone novel in the More Than Words Series.
 

Excerpt:

  “Noah?” At the sounds of splashing, I turn to find Harlow emerging from the pool, walking up one step at a time, dripping, swaying with every step, and completely blowing my mind. Her long hair clings to her pretty breasts, flirting with her plump nipples. Her waist dips in, then flares out to a pair of hips I want my hands on. She’s sleek and sexy and stunning. I can’t find words for an entirely different reason than before. She leaves me speechless. “Can you hand me a towel from over there?” She points to the patio table. On autopilot, I back toward the surface, never taking my eyes off her. When I bump into the glass, I grope behind me until terry cloth fills my hand. Then I race toward Harlow. “Need anything else?” She takes the towel from me, and we’re standing so close I can smell her scent mixed with a tinge of chlorine. “A shower. Then an orgasm or two, preferably that you give me.” Did I hear her right? “You sure?” Harlow nods, her gaze tangling with mine. “I want to fuck.” It takes a split second for her declaration to sink in. I was convinced she wouldn’t want me after she figured out I’m just a man with flaws. Then again, she was never looking to get laid from someone ESPN hailed as a football god. She just wants pleasure. The way she holds my gaze singes me with heat. It sizzles across my skin, burning the flesh under my surface. I can’t quite breathe. I have a feeling she’s going to be trouble—and I don’t care. “Let’s do it.” Taking the towel from her grip, I jerk it until it unfolds, then wrap it around her back, covering the dripping ends of her hair. Then I tug her against me. Her skin feels cool pressed to my overheated chest. I don’t dare kiss her now. The way I want her, I’ll lay her out on the first available surface, and I’d rather save my knees the agony of looking for the leverage to fuck her properly on a chaise lounge. Digging for restraint, I drag in a rough breath. If I’m already having trouble resisting her, how bad will the craving be once I’ve had a taste? I shove the thought aside. “I won’t go easy on you.” “I never thought you would.” “I won’t be gentle.” “Good. I may be small, but I’m not fragile.” “I won’t be quick. Expect me to be at you all night.” A sly smile curls up the sides of her lips that turns me on even more. “I’ll hold you to that.” I run out of ways to warn her that I intend to turn her inside out and wring her dry before I let her leave my bed. But fuck it, I’ll let my body do the talking. Bending, I lift her to my chest. She’s a tiny thing. Given her boobs and hips, I thought she would be heavier to carry, but I’ve curled barbells that weigh more. “Then let’s go.” Her smile becomes a grin as she wraps her arms around my neck. “Consider me happily along for the ride.”

REVIEWED BY JILL

3 stars for - Up In Smoke - book eight in the King series by T.M. Frazier. This book can be read as a complete stand-alone since Smoke, whose presence is a integral part of the group, doesn’t play a very large role up until now. So even though you should know all the men in the King series, your love affair could technically start here.
Frankie Helburn is a complicated girl that's daily life at a catholic high school in South Florida seems as boring and unassuming as they come. Living in a decent neighborhood with her father and keeping a low profile has helped her achieve these goals as she vows to help those who have been wronged. Taking extra precautions to ensure her safety all fly out the window when the man coming for her is just as sexy as he is dangerous.
Smoke has personal reasons for waiting to get his hands on Frank Helburn so when he is offered the job to watch his daughter in the hopes of finding him it seems like an easy choice. He should've realized right away when things look easy they rarely ever are because things go down hill so fast he doesn't have much time to figure out his next move before it all hits the fan again.
I'm am a huge fan of this series with both Preppy and King being on the list of my most favorite "dark heroes" ever, but with that being said Smoke just wasn't as engaging as the other guys for me. The story seemed to drag a bit at times and then when it finally starts to get amazingly good we were rushed to a anti-climatic finish. It was great to see Preppy/Bear/King and all the others though throughout this story and while this one was not my favorite, I honestly can't wait to read Nine's book next!

Don't Be Afraid by C.A. Harms ~ TOUR PROMO ~

Title: Don't Be Afraid
Author: CA Harms
Genre: A 2nd Chance Romance
Release Date: January 28, 2018 
“Harms takes you on an emotional journey that will tear you down and build you back up. Make sure you have lots of tissues for this one” -Kaylee Ryan, NYT & USA Today Best Seller "10 STARS!!!!! That's what I would rate it if I could! This book BLEW ME AWAY!!!" ~ Goodreads reviewer

Have you ever looked at someone and just knew,
knew that they were put in your life for a reason?
The one person that would be not only your best friend,
but would be your absolute everything?
That’s how I felt the first time I saw him.
That one day when a few little words changed our entire lives forever…
Don’t be Afraid, he said.
Life can change so quickly.
One moment you can be smiling and feeling as if you're walking on clouds and the next, everything you love, everything you treasure crumbles at your feet.
I told him to fight, I told him I needed him.
We needed him.
But there are just some fights that can't be won…
He was my angel then, and he’s still my angel now.
In a way, I believe he’s still looking out for us, giving us a future.
Sometimes it’s as if I can still feel his presence,
guiding us and keeping us safe.
So, I won’t be Afraid.
I'll live. I’ll fight.
It’s what he would have wanted.
I’ll do it for him…

“Hey, pretty girl.” His voice was weak, raspy, and groggy, as if he’d just woken up.“Come over here and give me one of those kisses I love so much.”
With each step I took toward him, I could feel myself falling apart, like pieces of me were being chiseled away to expose my bleeding heart. I wanted to ignore it and to forget that our time together was limited. I just wanted to pretend this was a nightmare and I would wake up to find him happy and healthy.
Only I knew that wasn’t going to happen. That was cleared now than ever.
“Dry those eyes,” he said as I reached the side of his bed. His reached for my hand and linked our fingers, then pulled them to his lips. Seconds passed in silence. Then a long beep made me jump.

C.A. Harms is like any other addicted reader. She enjoys happy endings and HEA love stories. She hasn't always been a lover of Romance and had once been addicted to a good Mystery. Just recently she has taken on a new liking and now is a full blown Romance novel addict.
She lives in Illinois and enjoys spending time with her husband and two children. You will always find her with her kindle or paperback in hand as it is her favorite pass time.

REVIEWED BY WENDY

3.5 stars

This was a light good read. It was low angst and sweet. Carey focused on the budding relationship between Spencer and Abby. And that is definitely what I enjoy in her books. Spencer and Abby were full of fun and cuteness. They mesh really well together and I enjoyed seeing their relationship progress as the story rolled on. I really liked how the basis was friendship. The banter and conversations and the uniqueness they each brought into it was nice. Their romance was just lovely. I also loved seeing the previous couples from the first two books as well as the rest of Abby’s family. They made the story that much more entertaining. Overall, a pleasant read. I have enjoyed this series and I can’t wait for Gideon’s story next. He is sure to be a hoot ;)
