Release Me, Claim Me & Complete Me (Stark Trilogy) - J Kenner

I'd read these books when they came out last year so pulling an excellent trilogy from the archives lol.

Release Me



Synopsis

He was the one man I couldn't avoid. And the one man I couldn't resist.

Damien Stark could have his way with any woman. He was sexy, confident, and commanding: anything he wanted, he got. And what he wanted was me.

Our attraction was unmistakable, almost beyond control, but as much as I ached to be his, I feared the pressures of his demands. Submitting to Damien meant I had to bare the darkest truth about my past - and risk breaking us apart.

But Damien was haunted, too. And as our passion came to obsess us both, his secrets threatened to destroy him - and us - for ever.

Claim Me



Synopsis

For Damien, our obsession is a game. For me, it is fiercely, blindingly, real.Damien Stark's need is palpable - his need for pleasure, his need for control, his need for me. Beautiful and brilliant yet tortured at his core, he is in every way my match. I have agreed to be his alone, and now I want him to be fully mine.

I want us to possess each other beyond the sweetest edge of our ecstasy, into the deepest desires of our souls. To let the fire that burns between us consume us both. But there are dark places within Damien that not even our wildest passion can touch.

I yearn to know his secrets, yearn for him to surrender to me as I have surrendered to him. But our troubled pasts will either bind us close...or shatter us completely.

Complete Me



Synopsis

Our desire runs deep. But our secrets cut close.Beautiful, strong, and commanding, Damien Stark fills a void in me that no other man can touch. His fierce cravings push me beyond the brink of bliss - and unleash a wild passion that utterly consumes us both. Yet beneath his need for dominance, he carries the wounds of a painful past. Haunted by a legacy of dark secrets and broken trust, he seeks release in our shared ecstasy, the heat between us burning stronger each day.

Our attraction is undeniable, our obsession inevitable. Yet not even Damien can run from his ghosts, or shield us from the dangers yet to come.

Rachel's Review

I loved this series, emotional and gripping. Perfect for those that are looking for a series like Crossfire. I was hooked from the first chapters and waiting for the third book to come out felt like a millennium. I loved the characters, the sensuality and the drama. A good read that will have you reading all of J Kenners books.

Thanks!!

Ladies! Have no shame.....

Ladies (and some gents),

Never have shame or embarrassment in reading what you love! If you like a dirty book with a cocky alpha male and a happily ever after, so be it!

In Love With A Master - Jason Luke

I've been counting down to the release day for-hev-er!!!!! I loved Jason's world tour he did and you can read all of the paragraphs he did in Vignettes of a Master. Also well worth a read. He did these live on several Facebook pages and then added them all into this collection.

Moving on...... I think my neighbours knew the moment In Love With A Master hit my kindle yesterday. The tell tale ohmygod ohmygod ohmygod dance was going of in my bedroom and my mister has had to hear about release day this and release day that. Aaaaand last night when I finished the book he had to cope with surly behaviour as I had a huge book hangover. If I could erase both books from my mind I would. Just so I can read them again for the first time.

In Love With A Master



Synopsis

How high a price will one man pay to know love?
For Jonah Noble, life has always been his world - his way. But now, confronted with his own mortality, and staring certain death in the face, he realises his one regret...
Will Leticia be his last chance? He knows she has feelings for him, but can he ever feel the same strength of emotion for her?
Can Jonah make the leap of faith that will put his heart in danger?
It's his world. His way. But now his life is on the line...

Rachel's Review

I think this is the first time I've wanted to add spoilers on to a review so I can properly share how I'm feeling but that is not the way to go! I was left gobsmacked by this book. Shocked, pleased, stunned and emotionally strung out. Jason Luke you are the master at getting in my head and leaving me with a book I will never forget. Thank you for the opportunity to read two extraordinary books that I will never stop recommending.

Interview With A Master - Jason Luke

A double feature today! Both fabulous books from Jason Luke.

I came across Jason Luke completely by chance whilst surfing through the many many book groups I'm in. I think it may have even been a competition and I had to like an authors page. So I had all the pre-release run up for both books. Its the first time I'd followed an author before I read any of the books.

On a side note I think I now get more author updates on my Facebook timeline than friend ones lol.

Interview With A Master



Synopsis

It's the interview like no other. 

It's the interview of a lifetime. 

It's THE Interview with a Master. 

When Jonah Noble reveals details of his life within the world of BDSM, the tale he tells is intensely erotic, profoundly sensual, and brutally honest. 

This is His world. His way. 

There is only one question the man will not answer...

Hands down to Jason Luke. This book left me stunned and begging for more. I read out exerts to a colleague of mine just because I'd never read anything like it and I wanted to spread the love. Such a well written, thought provoking and fabulous book.

The epitome of me!

I saw this photo today. This pretty much summises my book sharing ethos lol.

The Beautiful Series - Christina Lauren

An absolute must read series. One from the past but excellent. Books in reading order:-

Beautiful Bastard




Synopsis-

Whip-smart, hardworking, and on her way to an MBA, Chloe Mills has only one problem: her boss, Bennett Ryan. He's exacting, blunt, inconsiderate--and completely irresistible. A Beautiful Bastard.

Bennett has returned to Chicago from France to take a vital role in his family's massive media business. He never expected that the assistant who'd been helping him from abroad was the gorgeous, innocently provocative--completely infuriating--creature he now has to see every day. Despite the rumours, he's never been one for a workplace hook-up. But Chloe's so tempting he's willing to bend the rules--or outright smash them--if it means he can have her. All over the office. 

As their appetites for one another increase to a breaking point, Bennett and Chloe must decide exactly what they're willing to lose in order to win each other.

Rachel's Review -

So so so so good. Sexy and funny all at the same time. I had to read these books when I wasn't in the company others because I'd have a stupid smile on my face or I'd randomly laugh my ass off. I actually woke my mister up with my laughing at one point. Incredibly well written and very passionate (filthy lol) books.

Rachel's Rating -

No suprises. 5 Stars *****

Sweet Addiction - Jessica Daniels

Nice bit of fluffy chick lit for a change.



Synopsis -

Wedding hook-ups never amount to anything.

Those who partake in this wicked little activity know the rules. Get in. Get laid. Get out. There's no expectation of a relationship. It is what it is.

Dylan Sparks knows the rules. She’s familiar with the protocol. And she engages in the best sex of her life with a complete stranger at her ex-boyfriend’s wedding.

Reese Carroll doesn’t care about the rules. He wants more than just one night with Dylan. And he’s too addicting to pass up.

Sweet Addiction is the story of one girl’s struggle to keep things casual, and one boy’s desire to never let her go.

Rachel's Review-
Occasionally I like a bit of fluffiness in my life. Don't get me wrong I love the dark and the tragic but I always have time to squeeze in a fluffy book. I liked this book. I mean who doesn't like the 'girl meets boy, girl and boy have some cheeky rude, girl gets freaked out, boy wins back the girl' story. Nice easy reading. No cliff hangers. Nice to read the odd stand alone book once in a while.

A fluffy 3 stars ***

Resonable Doubt 2 - Whitney Gracia Williams

Linked to my last post here is the second in the Reasonable Doubt Series.



Synopsis -

She lied to me...

She betrayed the one rule that I'm most adamant about: Honesty. Complete and utter fucking honesty.

I really wish she was someone else—someone who didn't have the ability to make me feel, someone I could easily discard like the hundreds of women before her.

She isn't.

I'm drawn to her like I've never been drawn to a woman before—completely captivated by the very sight of her. But unfortunately, with my past slowly re-surfacing for all of the world to see, I'll have to find a way to let her go.

She can never be mine.

Rachel's Review-

Well I must say creative follow on title. Lol. Again a really good book. A lot of questions answered from the first book but still more intrigue created for the next book. I read this on in one sitting also. I was ecstatic to see it on my kindle. My mister thought something was wrong because I may have squealed a little. LOL.

Another 4 Stars ****

Reasonable Doubt - Whitney Gracia Williams

Another new addition book review. Well, two book reviews (See next post!). Seen as I need to catch up lol.

Again another popular series on other blogs and in review groups.



Synopsis-

My cock has an appetite.

A huge and very particular appetite: Blonde, curvy, and preferably not a fucking liar...(Although, that's a story for another day.)

As a high profile lawyer, I don't have time to waste on relationships, so I fulfill my needs by anonymously chatting and sleeping with women I meet online.

My rules are simple: One dinner. One night. No repeats.

This is only casual sex. Nothing more. Nothing less.

At least it was, until "Alyssa"...

She was supposed to be a 27 year old lawyer, a book hoarder, and completely unattractive. She was supposed to be someone I shared law advice with late at night, someone I could trust with details of my weekly escapades.

But then she came into my firm for an interview--a college-intern interview, and everything fucking changed...

Rachel's Review-

I liked this book and I was really annoyed when it ended. The writing style was great and I ended up reading this book in one session as I couldn't put it down. I also re-read it just before the second book came out and I wasn't disappointed in the slightest reading it for a second time.

Rachel's Rating-

4 Stars - Well earned. ****
