Release Day Tasty Book Blast: Collared For A Night by Susan Arden

Blurb:

All it takes is one mistake to be marked. One bite, she crosses a line...into forever. Diana Hambre's body is blazing. For days this leopardess shifter has spun through a body-searing heat cycle. Alone. Her senses reel when Shawn Barclay, her boss, walks into her reserved room at the Downtown Den, a stud club for shifters. He gives Diana a choice: spend the evening with him, give into his every desire, and she'll find out what it means to quench her heat-crazed thirst—or try her luck with a stranger, one of the club bangers.

Shawn hates when his back is against the wall. One sip of Diana’s pheromone-laced scent is enough to force his alpha hand. The tables have turned and it's Diana's back he wants up against a wall or any other surface for that matter.

As the moon rises toward midnight, Shawn and Diana come to understand the difference between sex and bonding. For a night, neither of them resist their primal instincts, blindly giving into carnal desire. Her wild nature fights being subdued and she risks spontaneously shifting without warning.

Now, bearing Shawn's bite marks, she can’t simply walk away from him; not when he has the means to teach her to harness her leopardess nature. Shawn accepts the challenge of training Diana to control her untamed cravings. Employing every method available in and out of the bedroom, he discovers he's on the verge of ensnaring himself in the process.

Warning: Erotic scenes hot enough to peel paint

My Thoughts:

Holy smokes! This story was so HOT! It has been awhile since I have read a good paranormal book and this one is certainly that! I couldn't put the book down. I loved the writing and the character connections. I am looking forward to reading more books by Susan Arden in the near future.

Overall Rating: 5*

Blog Tour: The Current Between Us by Kindle Alexander

Blurb:

Gage Synclair, international, hard-hitting investigative photojournalist, is preparing for the final special report of his career…a story of deception and murder six long years in the making. And after ten years in some of the worst parts of the world, he’s ready to settle life down and open an art gallery in his hometown of Chicago. The only thing getting in his way, he needs to find a competent electrician to finish the job before his grand opening.

Trent Cooper, electrical contractor, is surprised by the last minute request for a fast-paced electrical remodel, wanting nothing more than to get his foot in the door with Layne Construction. Being gay in the construction industry isn’t easy, nor is being father to his two young adopted children. Trent keeps his life in separate zones to avoid a short circuit. But when the gallery owner propositions him on the first day, Trent can’t help but think his worlds are a little too close for comfort.

Will their high-voltage passion spark everlasting love or will their lives break the circuit between them forever?

My Thoughts:

Wow! Kindle Alexander has completely stunned me! I loved the mystery aspect of the story. It added a huge kick to the end of the book. I love love loved the characters! Gage and Trent were the perfect pair and the love they found with each other is the once in a lifetime kind of love.

I will certainly be on the lookout for more books by Kindle. The writing was fantastic and quickly sucked me in. I very highly recommend this book!

Review: Dreaming- A Military Homecoming Romance by Michelle Fox

Blurb:

Rebecca’s husband, Kane, is a man of mystery and action. As an elite Navy Seal, he’s gone for long periods of time working on top secret missions. She never knows when her husband will return and the wait is often lonely.

While away on his latest mission, Kane has come up with some creative ways to keep the home fires burning even if he can’t call or email. And then the dreams start. Strange, vivid dreams of Kane; his strength, his touch, his scent.

Every morning, Becca wakes up convinced it’s all real, yet her bed remains empty...until one unforgettable night she has the best dream of all.

Dreaming is a short but steamy romance of approximately 10,000 words about a woman standing by her man while he serves his country. Please note this is not a novel, it is a short, quick read--the perfect length for a romantic bed time story.

My Thoughts:

Michelle Fox hits another one out of the park! I love reading Michelle's stories. Her writing is excellent and easy to breeze through.
I really enjoyed Becca and Kane's story. It was a happy ending that a lot of military families never get. The romance of the couple was hot add to that their quirky pets, and the story was fantastic!
I highly recommend this story as well as many of Michelle's other books.

Overall Rating: 5*
