This review is for “Office of Kink & Karma Boxed Set” by Celia Kyle.

Here is the official description:

Touch Me

In a world where Normals and Extraordinaries are constantly at odds, Eric D'Amore is plagued with the ability to sense soul mates. A talent he puts to work on the case files of the Office of Kink and Karma…

Josh Martin doesn't care what the Council wants, he's not about to let them turn him into some boy toy. Until he's called to the Office of Kink and Karma, where he sees Emily's picture. Now he can't wait to get his thoughts -- and his hands -- on her.

* * *

Tri Me

What's a Normal gal to do when she meets an Extraordinary who can arouse her with the touch of his mind? Enjoy his every thought, of course.

Theo and Jackson are partners in love and life, but both of them feel something's missing. It takes an order from the Office of Kink and Karma for them to admit their desire for a woman in their lives. And not just any woman -- Lara Kinley. Together they set out to seduce and capture Lara for their own.

* * *

Serve Me

Margaret Thompson is a prim and proper librarian by day and Dominatrix by night. Though she brings pain and pleasure to others, she can't seem to find "the one" for herself. When she orders a man from Triple E, Extreme Extraordinary Escorts, the last thing she expects is a hunk like Nathan Wells.

Nathan hates working as an escort. And what does he know about BDSM? Nothing. But once he meets Margaret, he's more than willing to learn…

* * *

Love Me

After playing matchmaker and setting up three couples, Eric D'Amore is ready to retire. To add to his stress, his used-to-be love and plaything, Melani, has shown up pregnant. To top it off, the office assistant he hired turns out to be a woman. Can things possibly get any worse? Of course. It's the Office of Kink and Karma. Case closed.

* MY SPOILER *

This box set is so HOT! This was a total pleasure to read.

Ya know what...I'm not doing an in-depth spoiler for this book as I want you to enjoy a truly awesome book by a wonderful author! You will grin and laugh throughout this box set. I promise!

First we meet Eric who has a very special ability see into other people's minds and to sense when a person's soul mate is close by. Then we have Josh & Emily – Emily is a librarian who loves to be touched. Josh has a very special ability that allows him to use his mind to lift or touch things (people <wink>).

While at their wedding, Eric notices another soul mate connection...for three people?? Ok...so he gets to work matching Lara with Theo & Jackson. But will her heart's desire be met?

Next Eric gets Margaret and Nate to hook up. Though she is thinking that Nate is a paid escort...who is supposed to be her sub. Too bad Nate didn't get that memo!!

Eric thought he had his one chance with Melissa as his one & only soul mate. But fate has other options! Enter Sam...Eric thinks that he is getting a male assistant. HA! Sami gets an eye full in the first hour of working for Eric. (heehee)

Here is my honest review of this book:

    * I received a free copy for an Honest Review. *

WOW!!! I already knew that I love Celia Kyle's writing but...WOW! This box set has it GOING ON!!!! Lots of hot couples (and a triad) with various interactions happening! Grab a drink and a snack while this is downloading because once you start this box set...you will only want to get up to use the bathroom!

Celia's writing style is funny and romantic at the same time...with lots of erotic thrown in!! <wink> I love how she writes about BBW. The ladies are described as lush, full figured women without resorting to a size number. This way it's easy to imagine yourself in their shoes.

This review is for “Honesty (Running with Alphas Book 2)” by Viola Rivard.

Here is the official description:

Hale isn’t even remotely interested in Taylor—at least that’s what he keeps telling her. But that doesn’t explain why he keeps turning up everywhere she goes and why he can’t seem to keep his hands off her.
As Taylor struggles to maintain her new relationship with Alder, Hale threatens to drive a wedge between them. But is it because he wants her gone, or because he wants her for himself?

* MY SPOILER *

Taylor and Alder have made love. Yet she also feels something for Hale, Alder's twin brother. Though Hale keeps saying that he doesn't care for her. If that's the truth – why does he show up whenever she is doing something? Does he want her for himself or to chase her away? Alder says that they will be leaving the valley soon. But she wants to stay. She has a cabin, is planting a garden, and making friends...why does Alder want to leave? Can't they compromise? But will she like the compromise that Hale and Alder make?

This is book 2 of a series – you will need to read this one first so that you are not confused by the later books.

Here is my honest review of this book:

* I was given a free copy for an honest review. *
I really enjoy Viola's work. The way she describes the scene is so good that I can see it in my mind. This is book 2 of a series and if you have not yet read book 1, you will be a bit lost.
In this book, Taylor is trying to figure out why she is attracted to both Hale & Alder. She knows that Alder cares for her but what the heck is Hale doing? What are her feelings towards him?

This review is for “Trust (Running with Alphas Book 1)” by Viola Rivard.


This review is for “Trust (Running with Alphas Book 1)” by Viola Rivard.

Here is the official description:

Just when she thinks her life can’t get any worse, Taylor meets alpha wolf Alder—the most caring, gallant, and handsome man on the planet. On the run from the police, there’s no way she could possibly get involved with him. But somehow she does anyway.

Alder seems to be convinced that the two of them are going to live happily ever after in his mountain territory. But between looming pack wars, her dicey past, and his twin brother—the most obnoxious, sadistic, and handsome man on the planet—Taylor has a feeling that her new life among werewolves may be just as complicated as her human one.

* MY SPOILER *

While on the run, Taylor sees a very handsome man. Yet she is on the run so she takes off. Alder of course notices her too and follows. <smirk> He convinces her to get in his truck and down the road they go. When faced with a police roadblock, he takes off and heads towards his home. He is trying to get her to trust him with the truth because he feels that she is The One. However all her life has been one lie after another so how can she trust him? She has never had a home to call her own...will she be able to tell him the complete and honest truth?

Alder has his own secret that he needs to share if he wants to gain her trust. Once he does, how will she react? Not like he expected that's for certain! But now, he has other issues that need his attention. What has his twin done this time? How can he make Taylor feel safe and protected?

This is book 1 of a series – you will need to read this one first so that you are not confused by the later books.

Here is my honest review of this book:

Just like the other Viola Rivard stories I have read, this was a pleasure. Viola's writing can take your imagination for a ride and it's a fun trip! I could literally see the way the clerk was looking at Taylor. As well as the beautiful landscape that Taylor and Alder travel through to get to his den. I can also understand his hesitation in telling her what/who he is. But if he is going to follow through and mate with her...she will have to know.

LONG Review! - Nolan Trilogy Box Set by Selena Kitt


(Warning – this is a VERY long review!!)
This review is for “Nolan Trilogy: Box Set (Temptation, Confession, Grace)” by Selena Kitt. This is a three part collection that can be read separately or as the box set. (I recommend the box set so that you can enjoy non-stop!!)

Here is the official description:

TEMPTATION (book1)

What happens when you fall in love with your best friend's father?

Leah is a good, Catholic girl, and she and Erica have been best friends since their first communion. Sure, Erica's father is handsome and charming, but Leah spends so much time at the Nolan's--just Erica and her famous, photographer father now, since Erica's mother died--that she's practically part of the family.

Both girls have led privileged, sheltered lives and are on the "good girl" track at St. Mary Magdalene's Preparatory College, Leah pursuing her love of dance and Erica sating her endless curiosity as editor of the newspaper. Neither of them could have ever imagined that one fateful discovery will not only push the boundaries of their strict, repressive upbringing, but the bonds of their friendship as well.

Leah certainly never could have imagined finding herself torn between her best friend and her best friend's father. Sure, Leah's mother had always talked about Mr. Nolan as "a catch," but Leah herself had never thought of him as anything other than just Erica's dad--until the girls discover something darkly erotic under Mr. Nolan's bed, a deep, shameful secret that will not only lead them into temptation, but will deliver them into a far greater revelation than any of them could ever have imagined.

If you read the original Under Mr. Nolan's Bed, you will find this retelling a richer experience with deeper secrets to reveal.

CONFESSION (book 2)

The shocking discovery best friends Leah and Erica have made under Mr. Nolan's bed has them down the wicked path of temptation, both girls veering far from the narrow path dictated by their strict Catholic upbringing, and their sexual transgressions have had unintended consequences.

Erica finds her life turned upside down when Leah falls for Erica's father, but just as Erica is beginning to accept their love for each other, Leah disappears. Bewildered and abandoned, Erica and Mr. Nolan are faced with sadness and confusion at their loss, but while Mr. Nolan spirals into mourning, Erica is determined to find her friend.

Erica can't possibly know why Leah has vanished, but when she enlists the help of Father Michael, her search and the real reason for Leah's disappearance intersect to uncover a multitude of shocking confessions and a secret that will shake not only the foundation of their faith, but the entire institution of the Catholic Church itself.

GRACE (book 3)

Childhood friends Leah and Erica have been sacrificial lambs at the altar of a scandalous corruption within the Catholic Church, violated by those who have, in their lust for power, turned the sacred profane.

The mystery of Leah's disappearance results in a long-awaited reunion, but it is tainted by both their loss of innocence and a deep, unfathomable sorrow, which only leads to more secrets that have yet

* MY SPOILER *

In the first book we are introduced to two young college girls who have been raised in the Catholic faith. Very reserved and sheltered lives UNTIL Erica discovers what is under Mr. Nolan's bed. (Mr Nolan is Erica's father.) He is a photographer and highly respected in the world of art. What they discover is that he also takes photographs of a more intimate human nature. This leads the young Ladies on a path of learning that the Nuns will never teach! Leah is very open to this new path and is discovering much. Including the love for an older man...Mr. Nolan himself! When she discovers that he also lusts after her...what else is she to do but ask for forgiveness on her knees? And to ask for lessons from an experienced person such as Mr. Nolan. <wink>

In book two – Leah has run away but where? Erica is looking for any clues and turns to her friend Father Micheal. Meanwhile Mr. Nolan has lost the second love of his life and searches everywhere for Leah. He heard that she was in New York – he traveled there but couldn't find her. He is lost but tries to continue on for Erica's sake. Leah's mother is no help at all. In fact she ignores both Erica & Mr. Nolan. Erica finds out that there is a secret society within the church and has been invited to participate. During a ritual, she sees Leah in the audience. She lets it slip to Father Micheal that she knows Leah is pregnant. He admits to knowing where she is located and why she went into hiding. Between them a plan is formed to get the evidence to prove that Leah doesn't have to be in hiding. Will they arrive in time? Will Leah's baby be safe??

In book three – Leah's baby has been stolen from the hospital by the social worker. Mr. Nolan has proposed to Leah and they have seen a lawyer to get Grace back. During this time, Erica is coming to terms with the idea that she will never be able to have a child, loving a man that she can't have, not knowing who her real parents are, finding out that her best friend is really her twin, what to do about the secret society, and a new boyfriend. Oh and getting her best friend/twin married to her father/who's not really her dad. <smile>

Here is my honest review of this book:

I really am glad that these three books have been grouped together so that I could continue reading and reading.

Book 1 – Selena did a great job introducing us to the characters and making their world come alive. I felt that I really could see the warehouse/home of the Nolan's. The discovery the Ladies made in the dark darkroom plus within themselves. The joy of discovering their own sexuality was very well described. Leah falling in love with Rob was so beautiful. I totally was able to see her becoming pregnant but did NOT see the coming shocker that her mother dropped on Rob!! Well done!

Book 2 – I understand why Leah felt that she had to hide. Personally, I would have confronted my mother for her lie from all those years. BUT Leah was raised in the Catholic faith to respect your elders and believe that they never lie to you. So she goes into hiding like any other unmarried mother until the baby is born. She also believes that her mother will give Rob the note explaining where she is. Though we are a reader know that will not happen! I feel bad that Erica and Rob have no idea why or where Leah has gone. They are left searching and trying to go on. But both are mourning for her. Erica has discovered that there is a secret society and being the detective type person that she is...she has to investigate it. She is asked to join and does so with the idea that she will expose them. Until she learns that it will be harder to do because of the others who are also involved. While on this path, Erica falls in love with Father Micheal but nothing can come from that. Selena does a wonderful job getting the readers emotions involved with the characters!

Book 3 – Grace has been born and taken away. Leah is heartbroken that she doesn't have her baby. But she is back in Rob's arms. Rob tells her that he will find their baby and bring her home. In the meantime, he wants to get married so that they will never be apart again. Father Patrick will not allow them to be married in the Catholic Church but that will not stop their love for each other! Erica & her new boyfriend come up with a plan. I feel for Erica – not knowing who her real parents are, finding out who her mom really is & that she has a twin!, falling in love with two men, working the system to get rid of the secret society...she has a lot on her plate!

I would recommend getting this box set because you will want to see what happens next. Setup a crock pot so that you don't have to stop to make lunch or dinner! I read this entire set over a three day time frame and loved every moment of it! Thank you Selena for writing this wonderful story!!

Review - Just Us by Riley J. Ford


This review is for “Just Us” by Riley J. Ford.

Here is the official description:

Before I ever fell in love with Bryce, there was Hayden. Hayden was my first love, the kind of love that takes your breath away and you remember forever. My love story with Bryce came later. Much later, after everything had happened.

Avery Hill and Hayden Stuart are high school sweethearts and each other's first true love. When Hayden is accepted to college in Los Angeles, Avery intends to follow him so they can build a life together. After a tragic chain of events ruins their plans forever, Avery is left to pick up the pieces. Will she survive all that was lost? And will she forgive the man who destroyed her and Hayden's dreams forever?

* MY SPOILER *

This is a teenager romance – you know, that first young love.
Avery has know Hayden for awhile now. They attend the same school and work together. They are best friends. She has feelings for him but she doesn't want to lose her best friend so she says nothing. Until it's time for a special dance that the girl has to ask the guy...Avery's friend wants to ask Hayden. Avery isn't happy about this but will not stand in the way. Hayden only wants to attend the dance as Avery's boyfriend but how to tell her? YES! They are now more that just friends but his mom puts her foot down.
What to do? What all teenagers do, sneak around behind mom's back and continue their romance. <Smile>
Things are going so good and finally Avery is ready for the next step. So they have their first time together. And can't keep their hands off each other. But they are being smart and using protection. They both have plans for their future and kids will be in that AFTER marriage though. <smile>
His mom finds out about their continued romance and has grounded him. But they make plans to spend his birthday together. On the way home, an accident happens and Hayden is killed. How can she survive? What did the doctors say to Avery's mom while she was in the hospital? Is there a reason for her to continue living??

Even though this is an overview of the book – it is very well written and I encourage you to get this book plus the second one. Riley J. Ford is a terrific author.

Here is my honest review of this book:

This is a really good romance story! I already love Riley's writing style and knew that I would not be disappointed with this book.

This is a young love story of two seventeen year olds who are experiencing that first true love. It's everything that we wish our first love could be. But there are forces against them. First his mom, then life itself. I am not going to spoil the story for you here. But I promise you that this is a very good read and you don't want to miss it. Grab a drink and get comfy because once you start, you will not want to stop reading. I would also recommend that you download the second part so that you can see what happens to Avery next.

Review for Billionaire Brothers - Complete Collection by Lucia Jordan


This review is for “Billionaire Brothers – Complete Collection” by Lucia Jordan.

Here is the official description:

Here, presented in one volume, are the four stories that comprise the ‘Billionaire Brothers’ Series, a seriously hot and provocative romance by Lucia Jordan, written in her signature style of high passion with searing depictions of sex and emotion.

What do you do when your best friend sets you up on a blind date with not one but two gorgeous brothers? Rebecca has no idea what lays in store as she arrives at the bar to see two hunky brothers, Alec and Tristan Lloyd, show up for their date and are the stuff of sexual fantasies. Although Rebecca hasn’t fallen in love since her last hurtful break up a year ago and hasn’t felt anything close to physical attraction since, she finds Alec and Tristan's sensual magnetism impossible to resist. But what they are offering is way too terrifyingly exciting to consider.

Would Rebecca dare to give in to these forbidden urges – ones she’d never known she could feel? The two brothers are determined to use their double-dose of masculine persuasion to change her mind before the night is through.

* MY SPOILER *

Rebecca has been set up on so many blind dates by her friend but has agreed to one final date provided that her friend leave it be for awhile. On this date, Rebecca meets the brothers Alex & Tristan. They enjoy dinner and go to a dance club. One thing leads to another and Rebecca is introduced to a light version of BDSM. Alex & Tristan convince her to give them a week to see if Rebecca is comfortable in this type of relationship. A month goes by and she is hooked. The brothers slowly introduce her to more of their lifestyle and she is enjoying herself. A couple of months go by and they want a longer, more committed relationship but are not actually calling it a “relationship” - this throws Rebecca for a loop. She can't be with them if she is not willing to be completely honest, so she leaves. But will they allow her to leave?

Here is my honest review of this book:

This was so good!

I liked the 50 Shades book but this is so much better with TWO lovers!! It did seem to move a bit fast in the beginning but that's because the brothers knew during that first date that she was The One! It just took a bit to ease her into their lifestyle and for her to realize that she would crave it too.

They do slow down a bit and take us along for the ride.

This was my first book from Lucia Jordan and I look forward to reading more of her work.
