Review: All His Pretty Girls

All His Pretty Girls All His Pretty Girls by Charly Cox
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is one of the best debut novels I’ve read in a while.

On the search for a missing woman Detective Alyssa Wyatt finds herself on the hunt for a serial killer. Along with her team they are on a race to find the killer before he strikes again.

I absolutely love that we get to read about her personal life...and it’s normal. She’s got a fantastic husband and two brilliant kids.

This is a brilliant debut novel. It’s a well written story with a great storyline. Honestly I didn’t expect them twists and I so wished I was buddy reading this as I wanted to talk so much about it.
I’m so looking forward to reading more of this series.

Review: Redemption

Redemption Redemption by Rebecca Sharp
My rating: 0 of 5 stars

This can be read as a standalone but as we have met one of the main characters in Reputation and it’s such a great read I do recommend you read it first.

This is Ash and Taylor’s story. I wasn’t too keen on Ash in Reputation but I’ve got to say he has redeemed himself. He really wanted to be a better person than what he was. When Taylor needed help she knew who to go to.

Fantastic read. The storyline was brilliant and had me glued from start to finish. I’m so looking forward to reading more from this author in the future.

Review: Reputation

Reputation Reputation by Rebecca Sharp
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is my first and certainly not my last read by this author. Once I started I couldn’t put it down.

This is a fantastic well written rock star story that I couldn’t get enough of. Blake and Zachary sure put me through the wringer with this one. Some brilliant secondary characters as well. Big thumbs up from me.

Review: Ready For Flynn, Part 1

Ready For Flynn, Part 1 Ready For Flynn, Part 1 by K.L. Shandwick
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow. Talk about sucking you right in. Valerie is such a strong character and that’s certainly a blessing with the obstacles life is throwing at her. Flynn is brilliant. Even though he has a bad reputation she believes in him.

Their story had me all over the place. From tears to big grins this story had it all. I’m so looking forward to reading more of Flynn and Valerie.

If you haven’t read anything by this author YOU NEED TO. A brilliant read.

MY REVIEW

I really need to read more by this author as this was a brilliant read. 

Truth or Promise. 

My heart broke for Abigail as soon as we met her. Her family aren’t nice towards her at all. They  didn’t want her messing their plans up so that’s how she ended up with Theo her bodyguard and the man she had a crush on.

No more from me. This is an excellent read. Go on read it. Feel what the author had me feeling. I’d love to hear your thoughts:)



EXCERPTS

#1

Why are you here?” I asked.⁠
Theo’s knuckle grazed my chin as a smile curled his lips. “Truth or promise?” ⁠
I had a thought as he perverted the sweet game we used to play as teenagers. ⁠
The thing between us was darkening, twisting, and I should run. Run before I darken and twist with it. I was the Wicked Bitch of the East Coast, but I wasn’t the words they called me. Not really. I liked to pretend I was as callous as my brother Grayson, as cunning as my sister Gemma.⁠
In reality, I was soft. As they said, there was a reason I’d never fit in. I was a marshmallow. Easy to step on. Easier to squish.⁠
So I answered. “Truth.”⁠
Theo smiled, easy and slow. “I’m going to break your heart, and you’re going to thank me for it.”⁠

#2 

“When I make you cry and scream, it’s because you’ll like what I’m doing so much…” I placed my other hand on her bare thigh, just beneath the hem of her dress, and she swallowed, throat bobbing. “You’ll beg me not to stop, Reject.”
I trailed my knuckle along her jaw, stroked behind her ear, and grasped her silky hair, tugging her ear to my lips.
“And now you have no one left to love you. No one. Not your daddy. All you have is me.” I licked her ear, tongue caressing along the shell, top to bottom, before biting the lobe. She breathed in a way that sounded suspiciously like a sigh. I tightened my grip on her hair. On her thigh. “Only me.”

Review: The Accidental Love Letter

The Accidental Love Letter The Accidental Love Letter by Olivia Beirne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Accidental Love letter is my first but certainly not my last read by this author as I really enjoyed this gem of a story.

Although Bea lives with her two best friends she feels very lonely. When a letter arrives that’s not for her she opens it. She doesn’t realise that it’s about to change her life.

This is a well written story with lovely likeable characters. A really heart warming story that I’ll certainly be recommending to my friends.

I’ll definitely be reading more from this author in the future.

I’m looking forward to reading more of this anthology and will be updating my review as I do.

Review: Two to Tango- Dirty Vanilla Book 2

Two to Tango- Dirty Vanilla Book 2 Two to Tango- Dirty Vanilla Book 2 by Macy Butler
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Oops I did it again. Jumped into book two without reading book one. Personally I love reading in order so this bugged me...that’s down to me not the author.

This is a well written bedtime read. Sally and Shane want to spice up their bedroom activities but get more than they bargained for.

Both are likeable characters. The storyline is great. If you like stories where couples share their sexual fantasies then give this a go. I’ll certainly be reading more from this author in the future.

He’s ruthless, possessive, fierce...

My husband.

MY REVIEW

Yikes I really need to go and read more books by this author as this was a fantastic story. I inhaled it in one sitting as I didn’t wanna put it down. Tomas and Caroline are thrown together in a way they didn’t think possible. To settle a debt Caroline becomes his bride. These two are fantastic together and in all honesty I didn’t want it to end. I can’t wait to read more from this author.




Excerpt 

Her eyes follow the solid black in my hand, from the feather tip to the little square strip of leather at the bottom.
“How original,” she quips. “A riding crop?”
“You know what this is?” I ask her, dragging it from her shoulder down her side, the leather traveling over her skin leaving goosebumps in its wake.
“A crop,” she says. “Thought we established that.”
“A crop designed for impact and sensation play,” I tell her. I quickly unfasten the cuffs, lift her up, and place her chest-down on the bed. Positioning her hands on the headboard, I cuff her to the rings I have there. The bed bounces a little with the force, and I step back to admire how gorgeous she is. Her beautiful breasts swing free, her ass barely covered by thin panties and pushed prominently in the air, the quick movement making her full hair bounce in fragrant raves. Over her shoulder she shoots me a look that dares me to let the crop fly.
Swish. The leather strikes her, making a small splotch of faint pink bloom against her pale skin and eliciting the most beautiful little cry. I lash her again and again, each flick a little harder than the last. At first, she actually growls at me, cursing under her breath but unable to get away. She whimpers, squirming, when the crop lands with more intensity. When I’ve painted her a fetching shade of pink, I flip the wand around and tickle her abused flesh with the feather.
“Ohh!” she gasps in protest, squirming, likely surprised by the different sensation. I take the delicate feather-tipped crop and trace it up her back and to her neck, tickling her just there, before I flip the crop again and give her another sharp spank.
“Beg.”
“No.”
I continue the same torturous teasing, alternating flicks of the crop and tickling feathers until she’s moaning, her hips rising, and I know that if I touch her secret folds she’ll be sopping.
Another swishing swing of the crop, “Beg me.”
“No.”
I’m growing impatient.
“It’s unfortunate you’ve chosen to be so stubborn,” I say. “You’ll need something more serious, then?”
Clenching her jaw, she refuses to give in.
I shake my head and cluck my tongue, walk to the bedside table and open it again. She watches every move. I take out a leather flogger and tap it against my palm. Tame, but would work if we had more time. I place it back in the drawer and take out a stout cane. Too harsh. Then I eye a lightweight but sturdy wooden paddle. I nod to myself. That will do well.
“You’re crazy,” she says with a scowl, staring at the solid wood. “Insane!”
“And you’re stubborn as fuck,” I say with admiration. “I like it.”
Without another word, I place my hand on her lower back and slam the wood against her full ass cheeks.
“Ow!” she screams and bucks, but I’ve got her tightly secured. I do want to subdue her, but I also want to take her to a place where pain and pleasure blend. I don’t strike her again yet but rather run my hand along her heated skin, massaging. She freezes, unsure of what I’m doing next. I drag my fingers along her inner thighs, so silky and warm to the touch.
“Beg.”
This time there’s a slight pause, and her refusal is tamer when she whispers, “No.”
