ARC Review: Torn From You by Nashoda Rose

 

Torn from You (Tear Asunder #1)

by Nashoda Rose

 

Blurb by Goodreads

 

Love is like an avalanche. It hits hard, fast and without mercy.

At least it did for me when Sculpt, the lead singer of the rock band Tear Asunder knocked me off my feet. Literally, because he’s also a fighter, illegally of course, and he taught me how to fight. He also taught me how to love and I fell hard for him. I mean the guy could do sweet, when he wasn't doing bossy, and I like sweet.

Then it all shattered.

Kidnapped.
Starved.
Beaten.
I was alone and fighting to survive.
When I heard Sculpt's voice, I thought he was there to save me.

I was wrong.

(It is recommended to read "With You" the novella first, however not necessary).

*Warning: This book contains some disturbing situations, strong language and sexual content. Over 18 years.


This is a love story with some dark elements. Dark contemporary romance. No cliffhanger and next in the Tear Asunder series is Ream's story (the band's lead guitarist).

The synopsis caught my attention but sadly it was nothing like it says it is suppose to be. First off there is only a small prologue with them together and in that I did not get Sculpt knocking her off her feet, I did not get "he taught her how to fight or taught her how to love" before it all shattered. Right in the prologue I could not connect with the hero and heroine. It was quick and seemed more like a recap of what went on in With You (Tear Asunder 0.5).  It says it is recommended to read "With You" first, but not necessary. I would disagree and feel it is necessary to read "With You" first because readers do not get enough on their relationship with in the prologue before the story starts off  with her being kidnap. After her abduction I hated the hero ASAP. I tend to like my romances with maybe the hero a bit mystery and then falling in love with his character or falling in love with his character, then maybe wanting to strangle him and then he redeems himself. Not in this case. The hero watches while she is being tortured, literally getting smacked around, ribs getting kicked and then to top it off the bad guy playing with her private parts.  Then came when she got whipped many times in the back and I had no clue who was doing the hitting, At first thought it was maybe the hero and about that point I was ready to call it a DNF.  But I stuck with it and glad I did because the hero was not the one hitting her. Yes it was hard at times to read especially while she was held as a sex slave. Reading during this time especially with other sex slaves in very descriptive writing was not faint for the heart and love that in reads when reading a dark novel.

 

There is a huge twist that I loved and was unpredictable. Then things started getting interesting and I was caught with another surprise. But for me the damage was already done in the beginning and I still could not like Logan the tattoo-underground fighter-member of a rock band-alpha male hero. After the beginning he could not redeem himself in my eyes. Things through out the novel did not move smoothly. One minute he is standing by watching a bad guy basically fondling her and in the next when the guy says he is going to sleep with her he gets all possessive and is about to beat the crap out of him. He is hot and cold and later on he had a few more jealous, possessive moments that I love in my heroes but still was not enough for me.

 

As for the heroine I could not feel her pain while being a sex slave. At one time she says she can not go back to being in the dark again she was afraid and could not do it. Not once was never aware how this affected her the first time she was in a dark room.

 

I love Dark Captive reads but this was all over the place. I really do not know what I read. At times it reads like a dark contemporary with a Captive element then it reads as a romantic suspense with a smidge of BDSM more so on the erotic side with some scorching panty changing scenes and then it reads like a contemporary romance with a rock band. Then there are too many characters that are not who they seem to be. There was one I was shocked about towards the end and wonder if he would play more roles in future novels. I hated him in the beginning and do not know if he suppose to be a good guy or is a bad guy.

 

Now for the secondary characters I can see Georgia and Deck, Kat and Ream having their own story and was interested in theses characters. With Ream and Kat I am curious as to what happened between them. It is so hard to tell because I felt like their part at times is not complete and felt coded. Like I was missing something. Then to top it off Ream does something towards the end that already I hate his character for. I am so bummed because I was really getting interested in him and Kat but not now. At this moment I do not know if I will continue with Ream story just like with Logan he has already got me ticked off about his character. In my opinion not a good way to start a story off but over all I am still curious about what happened between them.

 

Torn From You has potential to be a good read and a good start to what seems like it would be an interesting series. But for me there was way too much going on and at times confusing. Too many times jumps around and readers are slapped in the face with what just happened. Needed more leading up to a lot of scenes. Too many times had no idea who was doing what and felt like I was missing something.  Very choppy with not enough layers and when a layer is finally peeled readers are left with something choppy again and so on. I know I will not read the first novella "With You"  which by the way wish it would of came out before this and not the same time as I have no interest in seeing how their life started before Emily's was shattered.  Now about continuing the series,  Not only am I curious about Ream but I am also curious if this sex slavery is going to be part of the theme for the series.  I am sure the curiosity is going to win as it always does.

(NA) Review: Killing Sarai by J.A. Redmerski

Killing Sarai (In the Company of Killers #1)

by J.A. Redmerski

Purchase Links: Amazon Barnes & Noble

 

Blurb by Goodreads

 

From the author of the New York Times, USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling novel, THE EDGE OF NEVER, comes a story of passion and survival… Sarai was only fourteen when her mother uprooted her to live in Mexico with a notorious drug lord. Over time she forgot what it was like to live a normal life, but she never let go of her hope to escape the compound where she has been held for the past nine years.

Victor is a cold-blooded assassin who, like Sarai, has known only death and violence since he was a young boy. When Victor arrives at the compound to collect details and payment for a hit, Sarai sees him as her only opportunity for escape. But things don’t go as planned and instead of finding transport back to Tucson, she finds herself free from one dangerous man and caught in the clutches of another.

While on the run, Victor strays from his primal nature as he succumbs to his conscience and resolves to help Sarai. As they grow closer, he finds himself willing to risk everything to keep her alive; even his relationship with his devoted brother and liaison, Niklas, who now like everyone else wants Sarai dead.

As Victor and Sarai slowly build a trust, the differences between them seem to lessen, and an unlikely attraction intensifies. But Victor’s brutal skills and experience may not be enough in the end to save her, as the power she unknowingly holds over him may ultimately be what gets her killed.

This is their story…

 

 

 

 

 

 

Killing Sarai for me started off a bit slow. I love J.A. Redmerski writing voice but this is the second novel I have read by her that takes a bit for something to happen that "wows" me. In Killing Sarai  when the wow moment hit boy does it hit hard with an edge of your seat, nail biting moment readers do not know what is going to happen next or who to trust.  From there on out it is a hard novel to put down.

 

Sarai has seen and been through a lot in her life that has left her numb to danger.  She is unstable and is good at hiding it from everyone and herself. She is a ticking bomb ready to explode. She is not discipline and is more dangerous than Victor who is a killer.

 

I am crushing on Victor at this moment. I do love those dark heroes and Oh My he is on the darker side. With him you never know if he wants to kill her or fuck her. He has lived a dark lonely life with solitude and death. He is emotional unattached to anyone and anything. He just might have met his match with Sarai.

 

I loved both characters as individuals and adore them more together. They are perfect for each other and can relate to each other considering what have they have been through in their lives. I did fine the sexual tension not as steamy has I have read another novel by J.A. Redmerski but it did fit well with their situation and the plot line. Their intimate time together is hot fan your self and fit well with Victor's dark side.

 

Love the ending, it is not a HEA or jaw dropping cliffhanger but a good way to start the next novel in the series. I do look forward to see what J.A. Redmerski has in store for her fans,

ARC Review: After Hours by Cara McKenna

After Hours (InterMix #1)

by Cara McKenna

Publisher: PENGUIN GROUP Berkley, NAL / Signet Romance, DAW

Purchase Links: Amazon  Barnes & Noble

 

Blurb by Goodreads

 

A dangerous infatuation with a rough and ready man…

Erin Coffey has been a nurse for years, but nothing’s prepared her for the physical and emotional demands of her new position. Needing to move closer to her dysfunctional family, she takes a dangerous job at Larkhaven Psychiatric Hospital, where she quickly learns that she needs protection—and she meets the strong, over-confident coworker who’s more than willing to provide it.

Kelly Robak is the type of guy that Erin has sworn she’d never get involved with. She’s seen firsthand, via her mess of a sister, what chaos guys like him can bring into a woman’s life. But she finds herself drawn to him anyway, even when he shows up at her door, not eager to take no for an answer.

What Erin finds even more shocking than Kelly’s indecent proposal is how much she enjoys submitting to his every command. But he can’t play the tough guy indefinitely. If they want to have more than just an affair, both will have to open up and reveal what they truly need.

 

 

 

 

 

I am a cover junkie and the first thing that caught my attention was the sexy cover for After Hours. I had no problems visualizing Kelly with his smooth hard abs and massive arms.

 

After reading Willing Victim (5 star Read) had to dive into After Hours ASAP. I was not dissapointed. I did feel like the story started off slow in the begging but at the same time interesting as the setting is set in  a Psych ward. Different as I never read a romance like this before. The title After Hours fits perfect. There is no way I would be able to have any kind of relationship with Kelly and work with him. Kelly does not play fair when it comes to after hour.

 

He put his lips to my ear. "Ride my cock. Wreck yourself. Feel how fucking hard you make me, and remember it every goddam time we pass eachother on the ward."

 

Kelly is the alpha male as a hero can get. He is bossy, his way or the highway.

 

"I told you no." I said plainly aiming my self towards the steps.

"And I'm telling you get in."

 

He has no patience when things do not go his way. He works forty to fifty hours a week at everybody's beck and call. When he is off, he wants what he wants, they way he wants its. He is honest and would never hit or yell at a woman in an argument. His flirting is refreshing than I have ever read before.

 

"This is your room, so I'm letting you get your way-"Letting me?

"Come by my place some weekend and maybe I'll show you mine."

"Your way doesn't sound like it takes no for an answer."

"Your welcome to find out. "Good night"

 

He is a sexy-dominate- dirty talker that a cold shower is needed after ready.

 

"You feel that? Another inch drove inside. "Feel that cock? Feel what you do to me?

 

Loved Erin as she has a  backbone and the love she has for her sister. My heart did break for her as what she has to go through with her family.They are perfect for eachother since they have so much in common on how their past has made them who they are today.

 

Cara McKenna writing voice and heroes have for sure caught my attention.

Review: Willing Victim by Cara McKenna

Willing Victim

by Cara McKenna

Purchase Links: Amazon Barnes & Noble 

 

Blurb by Goodreads

 

For the past couple years Laurel’s been coasting, hiding in the backseat while her life drifts off course. Then one summer afternoon a tall, built bruiser named Flynn strides in and steers her straight into an infatuation she never saw coming.

Flynn introduces Laurel to things she’s never imagined—to the violent but exciting realm of the underground boxing circuit, to rough sex and even rougher role-playing, and to an attraction she craves even as it intimidates her. As Flynn invites her deeper into his world and his life, Laurel has to make a choice—let fear keep her holed up where it’s safe, or take a chance and fight for the man who makes her feel more alive than she’d dreamed possible.

Reader Advisory: Although all sex acts are 100-percent consensual, Willing Victim contains role-playing scenarios that may upset some readers who are sensitive about rape, even in a simulated capacity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spoil Free Review

Best money I spent on an Erotic Novel.  Willing Victim is not a novella with insta-love, sweet endearments and nonsense fillers.  It is up front to the point, a little funny at times and a interesting read. I loved every minute of it.  Cara McKenna has her own unique writing voice, master story teller and fun loving characters that leap off the pages with reality. Willing Victim is a keeper for me.

 

Cara McKenna definitely has opened open up my eyes to the whole "Role Playing".  Feeling a little kinky and dirty for saying I enjoyed those sexy moments. Now it did help that it was the sexy tattoo-underground boxer-dirty talker-Alpha male hero Flynn doing the role playing. Did I say he was a sexy dirty talker.

 

"He moaned above her. "Yeah... Fuck, I've been thinking about this all week, making you touch my dick. Get it out, girl."

 

Loved that Laurel was not shy in the bedroom department. It was not like bang she is ready to jump into the whole role playing ASAP either. She was interested but still not sure. What made Willing Victim perfect was the set up to get her into role playing. I have read many novels where the male will watch another male and female get it on but I have never read a novel where the heroine watches a male and female get it on. Oh I needed a steamy shower after that. Loved it even more was Flynn's actions while with another female. Right then and there it was not something he said but more so what he did. It amazes me how already I was falling love with Flynn and they did not even really know each other long. Cara has a way of writing where it is not always endearing words that caught me swooning over the hero but his actions say it all.

 

For an erotic novel it was not just sex after sex scenes. No Cara had a nice mixture of romance and even some yummy detailed boxing scenes. It was a nice break from those yummy scorching-panty-changing scenes. Gradually through the novel readers get to experience their romance bloom. Loved that they start off as friends while she is exploring "Role Playing".  Not only do readers get to see their romance bloom, readers get to see their friendship build too. They are playful and loved that Flynn was a  joking-laid back everyday guy that wants to have a relationship. He enjoys role playing but he is not a damage hero that has to have it. Do not let the "Role Playing" sway you from reading Willing Victim. If  you love a well written Erotic Romance with a  wickedly delicious couple then Willing Victim is a novel not to be missed. Look forward to checking out more of Cara McKenna Erotic novels.

 

Ending with a sexy snippet for you all, enjoy.

 

"God. Flynn."

 

"You taste so fucking amazing." He brought his head up and Laurel could see the violent rise and fall of his chest. "Sit on my face." he said.

 

She sat up and they swapped places Flynn lying on his back with his head just below the pillows. She swung a leg over and wedge her calves under his arms, settling her pussy against his mouth and grasping the edge of a shelf for balance. She fussed with the position until he yanked down on her hips, pulling her close. "Oh God."

 

His voice was thick and desperate. "Fuck my mouth." He made his tongue stiff, spearing her, nose grazing her clit, and Laurel rocked her hips and let the sensations and textures of him drive her insane. One hand left her and she felt the motions behind her back, knowing he'd started jerking.

Counterterrorist agent Taft Walker knows the Mexican cartel smuggling game. But posing as part owner of an adult store to ferret out the newest tunnel into the US is a first. So is Zoe Brooks, his partner, new to undercover and a sex-toy virgin. Taft’s up for the sexy challenge. At least until he sees the real Zoe beneath her tough façade and realizes, for the first time in his life, he’ll have to risk his heart to win.

After the death of a teammate, Border Patrol Agent Zoe Brooks is ready to get off the front lines. She’s willing to tolerate a swaggering partner like Taft for a chance to work investigations with ICE. But she’s not prepared for the way he understands her deepest, sexiest desires. Or the fact that she’ll have to break her own rules to grab hold of the passion she’s always wanted.
 

 

The cover alone caught my attention. Sexy and eye catching. First Temptation starts off with great action with a kick butt heroine Zoe. Loved how it started and how her and Taft first meet. I was not big on the insta-love but like a lot of novella's that is what happens sometimes. It is a hot fan your self and enjoyable read. I did like Joan Swan writing voice and writing style but I was hoping to be more wowed with Zoe and Taft relationship. I do already have a few of her other novels that I will be trying.

Is there anything Kresley Cole can not write about. Instantly became a fan girl with her Paranormal Romance series Immortals After Dark. She has wowed readers with her Historical Romance series Sutherland Brothers , Highlander series MacCarrick Brothers and Young Adult series The Arcana Chronicles now she has ventured into Erotic Romance with  The Game Maker series and nailed it.

 

Perfect timing as I was in need of a good new author in a  Mafia theme Romance. Been searching and digging  to get this Mafia theme itch and well known author Kresley Cole's The Professional scratched it with a well written novel and a specific  wicked-sexy dominate-arrogant-alpha male-Tattoo Mafia Enforcer hero, Aleksandr "The Siberian" Sevastyan.  He is cold and hot and in know means like to be teased. He is one who acts on his promises. He is a bit jealous and possessive   when it come to Natalie, he might not like it, but she is his. He also can be bit on the tender side, not really with words but more so with his actions.  He likes to dominate in the bedroom as he is not one for surprises.

 

Natalie is his biggest surprise yet and she is not one to hold back and play fair. Neither is Aleksandr with his dirty talking mouth and WOW does he know how to use his mouth. Alexsandr has met his match when it comes to Natalie. Loved her inner thinking as she had me giggling a few times on what she had in store for him and his wicked teasing ways. Love the banter between them and Kresley Cole is to date the Queen of sexually teasing. The professional is one scorcher-panty-changing read that will leave you hot and bothered on so many levels. You will be right there with Natalie screaming for release and plotting some kind of payback. 

 

Thank you Kresley Cole and Pocket Star publishing for a well done cover that is wickedly delicious and not just an object. It might not be a shirtless or sexy hunk on the cover but love that it has the heroes semi face. Goes really well with the Mafia Theme Romance. If I was not already a  Kresely Cole Fan girl, the cover alone would catch my attention enough to have to check out the synopsis.

 

It is hard to find a good serial series. Too many authors like to shorten their serial where there is not enough to get a feel of the characters or right away rush their relationship with insta love.  The Professional is perfect and it is how I love my reads, good length,  no insta love but two characters that are infatuated with each other and look forward to when they will fall in love. Love that Kresley Cole stayed true to her writing style. She was able to bring an erotic tale with humor. I for one am a huge cliffhanger fan. Love the anticipation for the next novel. Kresley Cole wrote the best jaw-dropping cliffhanger of all time. I am still in shock, can not stop thinking about The Professional and on how it ended. Kresley Cole that ending is wrong on so many levels and that is why I love it and am a huge fan girl of yours. Freakin Brilliant. You all know what I will be buying on Jan. 6, 2014 and a great way to start of the New Year,  The Professional: Part 2 (The Game Maker 0.2).

Mafiya enforcer Aleksandr  is all mine. Sorry lovelies but being greedy at the moment and have no intention on sharing this wicked- sexy dominate-alpha male hero. If interested in why I am being a bit greedy, really need to read The Professional. Sorry for the many quotes but my poor kindle is lit up like  a Christmas tree with so many highlights. It was very hard to pick just one favorite quote or some that were not spoilers. Review

Quote-Tastic #1

 

(Love a hero that gives choices)

 

"Let me make this simple for you" he interrupted. "I'm walking out of this house in five minutes. You can either walk out with me, packed and dressed, or leave in that little robe" - his piercing eyes swept over me, over my nipples pressing against the silk - "thrown over my shoulder. Your choice."

 

Quote-Tastic #2

 

(Arrogant hero:)

 

"When a woman singles me out" - he leaned down to murmur at my ear - "it's because she wants to get fucked. She looks at the scars and tattoos and knows she'll get fucked hard."

 

Quote-Tastic #3

 

(Kresley Cole had me wetting my panties with "Suck"...oops TMI.)

 

"Ah, God, I'm about-"

 

He covered my mouth with one of his hands, muffling my screams. He slipped two fingers between my lips, treating to my own juices. "Suck," he ordered.

 

My head fell back and I sucked in delight, imagining those fingers were is cock. Under is sharp thrusts, I began to scream.

Until November delicious cover caught my attention *Click* had to check out the synopsis. My kind of read "Strong Alpha Male", *Click* had to sample it and *Click* bought and read in one sitting.

 

Aurora Rose Reynolds had my full attention the minute Asher Mayson and November met. Could not swipe my kindle fast enough to see where she was going with them. Asher is a ladies man and never had problems getting a woman that is until he meets November. Love that their relationship starts off friends first and he has to pursue her. The pursuing does not always go smoothly. Not when Asher is a  tattoo-hottie-alpha male hero with a bit of a jealous and possessive side. November has a backbone and knows how to put him in his place but the only thing she can not deal with is Asher sweet side. She has been put down her whole life by her mom and her lovers. Love that Asher is not a broken character he just never found the right woman. It is the little things in life that she never got to enjoy and seeing her reactions to certain things brings him happiness. They are a fun and playful couple that their characters jump off the pages realistic. They are hot-fan yourself together and I would not mind Asher whispering naughty things in my ear by his dirty talking mouth.

 

Love all the secondary characters especially the dog Beast. Both families added so much to Asher and November's story, I instantly fell in love with them. Love the interactions with his brothers and his parents. His mom is one tough cookie and knows how to keep her boys in line. She would have to with four strong will boys. I wanted to be a part of both families.  Love the brotherly love between the Mayson boys. Never a dull moment with them.

 

Until November is wrapped nicely with one of the sweetest and giggle moment epilogue. Had a smile on my face for days after finishing it. Aurora Rose Reynolds is a new author for me and look forward to more Until novels. Excited Until Trevor (Until #2) comes out December 19. Looking for a fresh series with yummy Alpha Male heroes and a bit of mystery, Until series is it.
