My Review

Serena Singleton has come from nothing. She was found and taken care of by Price Turnsby. Billionaire. Price took care of Serena in everyway, clothes, food, sex. Serena became Price's submissive. Until Serena decides she wants to leave and go to college to study music with Sebastian Sorensen as her adviser.

Sebastian  has a price for being Serena's adviser he want her to go with him as his plus one to his mothers fundraiser. Sebs family is mega rich and wants him to marry someone else shortly after Sebastian is poisoned and an attempt on his life and in order to protect Serena she moves into his place. Where they get to know each other better.

Serena thinks Sebastian is lying and is going to marry Willow. So does what she knows and flees back to Price. Is this what is good for Serena? And is this a Dom/Sub relationship?

I loved this book, cover, characters, storyline. This isn't just a story, this is something I think  a lot of people reading this will relate to, if you really read it and get the message that Kailin is telling. Kailin tells such an important story in a beautiful way.  I was surprised at the end, not what I thought in a good way- sorry guys no spoilers.
5/5 stars and 3/5 movie moments

Synopsis

Emma is happy. She's got a promising career in front of her, great friends, and a pretty amazing family. But her social life has been a little lacking lately. That's when fate stepped in, and crashed her into a tall, dark and handsome man. Sure, he has his secrets...don't we all, and, yeah, maybe his secrets are a little more unusual than most - like he's a partial vampire who can walk around during the day, but also enjoys a little plasma nightcap now and again - but to Emma, he's single, successful, and an extraordinary gentleman. That makes up for a lot. Of course, his condition is a bit more serious than he first lets on, and living a life with him will require some sacrifices that most just aren't willing to make. Will she? Is love enough to compensate for a life that will never be anywhere near the realm of normalcy? But then again...what's normal anyway?

Tears of Tess Review

This book is AMAZING, You want to read it. there are giveaways attached.
 

Synopsis

A New Adult Dark Contemporary Romance, not suitable for people sensitive to grief, slavery, and nonconsensual sex. A story about finding love in the strangest of places, a will of iron that grows from necessity, and forgiveness that may not be enough.


“My life was complete. Happy, content, everything neat and perfect.
Then it all changed.
I was sold.”


My Review.

I have never read anything like this about sex slaves and human trafficking, its usually a subject I stay away from because I cant believe in this day and age it happens - It does. When I read the synopsis I was intrigued and thought I would give it a go. I AM SO GLAD I DID. I am going to keep it simple because you guys know I don't do spoilers and the least bit of information will spoil it.

What an absolutely stunning and compelling Debut book by Pepper Winters.


Ok so the story is about Tess who is in college studying property development and whose parents ignore her, they don't care. And Brax who is in the building trading and who lost his parents. They have each other, they are comfortable, they look out for each other. They've been together for 2 years. Tess thinks they need to be more intimate with each other but Brax is happy with the way things are. Brax surprises Tess with a holiday to Cancun in Mexico. This is where things change for both of them for the better or worse?

This is a book you need o put on the top of your "To Be Read List" but be warned, once you start reading be prepared to loose 5/7 hours of your life(in a good way) you will need to get the "Do-not Disturb Sign" out and put your self in a lockable room, do not tell anyone where you are going, you will need to complete this in one sitting.

Pepper Winter is an author to watch out for. the way she tells this story  is told in a captivating way that it will pull every emotion and everyone of your sense from you. I loved everything about this book, there was nothing about this book that I didn't like.

This gets 5/5 stars from me and 5/5 for movie moments.

Seduce by Missy Johnson
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance

Synopsis:
Twenty-five year old Jack Falcon doesn’t do relationships, and why would he when he has woman after woman literally throwing themselves at him? For Jack, life is perfect just the way it is. He works hard and he plays harder.

Jack’s life changes when he meets Belle. Unlike any woman he’s ever met, there is something about this girl that makes him unable to keep away, something beyond the youthful beauty and her innocent spirit. Belle is strong and independent, a big leap from the usual brainless chicks he tends to attract.

Jack begins a dangerous game. He is determined to seduce Belle, and without realizing it, his feelings for her develop beyond anything he has ever felt before. Things become complicated when he learns there are good reasons as to why he should stay the hell away from her.

How can you stay away from someone you want to spend every waking minute with? And what do you do when you know eventually you will destroy that person?

As their feelings for each other deepen, Jack struggles with his own internal demons which threaten to rip them apart. Jack is torn between following his heart and listening to his head, which keeps telling him he is not good enough for her. She deserves better than what he can give her.

How far will he push before they both fall over the edge?

Excerpt
Girls were checking me out like they always did. At least I didn’t have to go through the hassle of wooing one of them, pretending to be someone I wasn’t. I already knew I was taking one home with me, I just wasn’t sure which one it would be. That was the beauty of being an attractive, rich bachelor who was regularly in the news: all I had to do was smile and the panties started dropping.

Cover Reveal Finding Forever By Melissa M Hamling

 
Finding Forever by Melisa M. Hamling
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult

Synopsis:
Through the splinters of glass, I see his face, the one who has this hold on me, on my soul, and I know he holds the key to something I have yet to learn.

Be careful what you wish for, you may just get it. Morgan Master’s is about to find out that what you wish for doesn’t come in a perfect little package.

Plummeting off the side of the mountain wasn’t the escape Morgan had planned. Or was it? Disconnected from who she was, where she came from, Morgan knows she’s in a hot mess when the lines blur between two worlds. What is real and what is imagined? Her inner struggle to find herself and to learn the truth, leads her into the arms of Ben, the perfect little package she once wished for, but doesn’t remember it.

Ben is Morgan’s solace, her guide through her state of confusion, offering comfort and love to degrees she is certain she has never known before. Longing to stay in the heavenly bliss, something keeps pulling her back, a little at a time.

When Morgan’s world crumbles, she endures weeks of heartbreak. She must decide between this life, or go in search of the unknown, in search of re-establishing the love she had for the man who helped her survive. What must she sacrifice to find him? Does he really exist? What will she uncover when she goes in search of Finding Forever?
 
 
 
 

About the Author

I grew up in Colorado and moved to Nebraska in the latter half of my teen years, where I've remained. I have a great family and my father is James Dean. Yep! The James Dean. Okay in name only, but I still love to say it. I have the best husband ever! He's not afraid to do the laundry, or the dishes, and dang. He's had to survive four females and a whole lot of hormones. Poor guy! We have three beautiful daughters, and our only sons, Robby and Bentley, are of course, cats. They refuse to acknowledge their furry background, and so continue to live as humanly as possible.

Most of my work experience has been in healthcare giving me the opportunity to work with a variety of people, ranging from newborn to elderly. My true passion is writing. I'm captivated by stories that delve into facets of the human behavior: affliction, fidelity, passion, betrayal, and redemption. I prefer to take my characters through a physical journey where they learn something about themselves or take them to new and exciting places, but there is always romance involved.

Book Blitz - Captivated by Emily Jane Trent


 There is a giveaway guys, open Internationally the lucky winner gets an  ebook copy of Captivated, the prize will be sent out the week of September 15th.



Captivated by Emily Jane Trent
(Adam & Ella #1)
Genres: New Adult, Romance 

Synopsis:
Ella Walker, still suffering from issues of mental abuse, turns twenty-one and meets the man of her dreams. Can she break the bonds of her emotional prison and be the woman he desires? As an aspiring romance author, Ella struggles to find passion in her work. When Adam Bianci, the gorgeous Italian billionaire appears in her life, he lights up her drab existence. She’s determined not to let him slip through her grasp. But will his secrets and the tangled web of his own abuse keep them apart?
 
Excerpt
Only a couple of feet from her, he dropped to the sand and sat, cross-legged, hands on his knees, looking at her. His look seared right through the faded gray sweatshirt she wore over her suit, and left her feeling completely undressed. Clearly, he wasn’t socially trained like the men she knew. There was a certain etiquette she could count on. They’d glance quickly and then look away. No one would have the nerve to just look, with such a boldly lustful gaze. His amber eyes burned into her, and she ran her hand through her long, light brown hair, in a vain attempt to present a casualness she didn’t feel.

About the Author

 
Emily Jane Trent writes steamy romances about characters you’ll get to know and love. The sex scenes are hot, and the romance even hotter! If you are a fan of stories with a heroine that’s got spunk and a hunk of a hero that you’d like to take home with you, these stories are what you’re looking for. The stories will let you escape into a fantasy – and you won’t want it to end - ever.
 
Author Interview
 
When did you first realize you wanted to become a writer?
I’ve been a writer since I was a child. I’ve always loved fiction and was an avid reader. The amazing opportunity to be a self-published author makes it possible for me to share my work. That’s what has really changed, and I think it gives readers lots of choices.
Among all the books you have read which of these has significantly contributed to your writing style?
I read a lot of contemporary romance and new adult romance as I love the genre and like to keep up with what readers enjoy. My writing style is unique, and when I write I just block everything else out. Only the story exists. So I don’t know if my style has been influenced except to say that I do focus on writing the types of stories I know my readers want.
Do you believe in love at first sight?
Absolutely, and you’ll see that a lot in my romances. In fact, that can be one of the most exciting factors in the story, how the characters are instantly in love.
Where were you born and where do you call home?
I was born in California and lived there most of my life. A few years ago I moved to Tucson and I love this area of Arizona. It’s mountainous and beautiful.
Is there something that has just recently happened in your life that you would like to share?
Well, this may be the obvious thing. But writing romance and publishing is a great experience. It’s still pretty new for me. I started my Facebook Fan Page and readers talk to me all the time. That’s such a wonderful thing, to be able to chat directly with my readers. I can’t get enough of it.
Can you sum up Captivated in a few words?
Captivated is the story of Ella, a young girl, overcoming any and all personal issues to be with the man she loves. Adam, the hero, has his own struggles and ultimately conquers all because of his love for Ella.
If Captivated was made into a movie or TV series, what actors would you like to see playing your characters?
Seriously, it’s my readers that get to choose. But if I’m on the spot I’d say:
Ellen Page or Chloe Grace Moretz for Ella Walker
William Moseley or Freddie Stroma for Adam Bianci
Any advice to aspiring writers?
Just write is my best advice. I’ll always get my idea and do an outline of the chapters and storyline. When I’m happy with that, I’ll just start writing. It’s best to write the whole story before you start rewriting or changing. The creative flow will stop if you start evaluating it too much before you’ve even told the story. Keep writing and critiques or editing separate. 
Do you sleep in or get up early?
Early for sure. I’m most creative in the morning J
Coffee or tea?
Coffee and chocolate – can’t have one without the other.
Three things you never leave home without?
Makeup (someone might recognize me), food (I get hungry often and grouchy if I don’t eat), and tissues (must be allergies, my eyes water)
What is your favorite wine?
Wine is good, period. I enjoy red or white. I like them all. I don’t have a favorite, but Pinot Noir for red or Savignon Blanc for white is usually a winner.
Ebook, paperback, or hardcover – which do you prefer?
The smell and feel of books makes me feel so good. I go to a local library all the time, just for that book atmosphere. If I like a book a lot, I want the paperback. But I read a ton of ebooks because they are so accessible. Only so many paperbacks I can carry around.

I am loving this cover, this includes a giveaway check it out.
 
 

Speak Low by Melanie Harlow
(Speak Easy #2)
Publication date: November 4th, 2013
Genres: Historical, New Adult, Romance

Synopsis:
We always want what we can’t have.

Tiny O’Mara is tired of living in a world where men make all the rules. After bootlegging enough whiskey to free her father from the DiFiore crime family, twenty-year old Tiny is determined to gain her independence.

But it’s going to cost her.

Her alliance with sultry Enzo DiFiore is based more on their explosive chemistry than loyalty or trust. But she’s promised him some information that will help him take revenge on The River Gang, and when he offers her a job, an apartment, and the prospect of nights spent together where anything goes, she can’t refuse—which only puts her further in his debt.

She needs gorgeous childhood pal Joey Lupo to help her again—when they’re not at each other’s throats, they make a good team, and her attraction for him is becoming impossible to deny. But after she rejects his offer to leave town together, he’s tempted to let her fend for herself.

As Enzo’s need for possession and power escalate and her feelings for Joey deepen, Tiny realizes her mistakes. She just hopes she gets the chance to fix them before it’s too late.


Speak Easy is the first book in the series and is currently on offer this week for 99 cents you can buy for here.
