Excerpt

I grabbed a plastic cup and filled it with vodka. Weaving through a group of women who were dancing, I found myself surrounded, trapped by hungry, grinding hips, fingers that snuck up my t-shirt and lips that whispered in my ear. I couldn’t hear her words, but had enough sense to know when I was being invited into a woman’s bed.

I tipped my cup back and opened my throat, letting ounce after ounce of burning vodka slide down. When it was gone, I tossed the cup aside and grabbed the waist of the girl in front of me. I pulled her ass against me and grinded into her. She threw her head back against my chest, lifted her arms over her head and swiveled as she bent her knees, lowering herself below my waist. She turned, hooked her fingers behind my belt and looked up at me with smoldering eyes. She licked her lips. My cock twitched in anticipation. I grabbed her by the arm and pulled her up. “Outside,” I said. “Now.”

We pushed through the crowd and stepped out onto the sidewalk. Her hand squeezed my ass. I reached over and tweaked her nipple, hard through her tight, stretchy shirt.

We rounded the corner to the side of the motel. A few people stood down at the far end of the building, but it was dark enough she could blow me. She put her hands on my chest and groaned low in her throat. “God, I want this body,” she said.

“I want your mouth on me.” I squeezed her tits, and her hands ran down over my stomach. She squatted down, unbuttoning my jeans. The zipper followed, and her hand pulled me out. I leaned back against the brick wall as her lips closed around my head. Her mouth was hot, and she knew how to stroke a cock. After the day I had, coming in this chick’s mouth was about all I had the strength left in me to do.

I watched her as she sucked me in. Her hand disappeared up her skirt, getting herself off at the same time. That should’ve done it for me, but I was distracted. I wasn’t even enjoying it. I don’t know what the fuck my problem was.

“That’s enough,” I said, hauling her to her feet.

“What’s wrong?” She stumbled in her heels, and I held her up.

“Nothing. It was perfect. I’m just　 not into it tonight.”

She looked disappointed. And pissed. “Yeah. Well. Whatever. No big deal. Your dick’s not that big anyway.” It was a lie. We both knew it.

I tucked it back in my pants and watched her retreat around the corner of the building. I waited a few minutes until my cock settled down, then went back around to the sidewalk. I should’ve stayed in my room. I was in no mood for a party and all the fake bullshit that went along with it.

When I got to the door to the party, this one chick wouldn’t move to let me by. “Hey,” I said. “Excuse me. I need by you.”

She turned and locked her bloodshot blue eyes on me.

Time froze as we stared at each other.

Her blond hair was dull, her complexion sallow, her body too thin. Drugs. I’d know their effects anywhere.

“Danny,” I said, catching her by the elbows. “Do you know who I am?”

Her eyes trailed over my face. Jesus, she was rocked out of her mind. Her pupils were dilated and sweat dripped down her neck between her small breasts into her low-cut shirt.

“Danielle,” I said, leaning closer. “It’s me—Tyler.”

“Tyler,” she said, and threw her arms around my neck.

Guilt crushed against my sternum. I left her, and look what she became. “Let’s get out of here.” I turned her around and steered her down the sidewalk.

Review: Monster In His Eyes by J. M. Darhower-Monster In His Eyes-Book 1

Aside

Monster In His Eyes

Monster In His Eyes Series- Book 1

By J. M. Darhower

Synopsis:

Ignazio Vitale is not a good man.

I suspect it, the first time I see him, sense the air of danger that surrounds the man. He has a way of commanding attention, of taking control, of knowing what I’m thinking before I even do.

It’s alarming and alluring. It’s dark and deadly. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted but the last thing I truly need. Obsession.

It doesn’t take him long to draw me into his web, charming me into his bed and trapping me in his life, a life I know nothing about until it’s too late. He has secrets, secrets I can’t fathom, secrets that make it so I can’t walk away, no matter how much I beg him to let me go. I see it sometimes in his eyes, a darkness that’s both terrifying and thrilling. He’s a monster, wrapped up in a pretty package, and what I find when I unmask him changes everything.

I want to hate him.

Sometimes, I do.

But it doesn’t stop me from loving him, too.

AUTHOR’S NOTE: This book is intended for a mature audience only, due to some dark and erotic content.

Torture Her Soul

Monster In His Eyes- Book 2

Coming September 29, 2014

Robin’s Review

Adrenalin. I continually experienced anxiety and a racing heartbeat while reading Monster in His Eyes. There is more intensity packed within the pages of this novel than with any other novel read in recent memory. It became impossible for me to put this novel down, especially as I began to develop theories and as details of the plot were peeled back. As I write this review, I continue to feel the after effects of reading this story. Fans of the novels Sempre and Sempre: Redemption won’t want to miss reading the newest novel written by JM Darhower. Monster in His Eyes is not a young adult novel. It is a romantic suspense novel with dark themes, and it very much delves into the genre of erotic romance.

Karissa Reed is an eighteen year-old college student. Raised by a mother plagued by extreme paranoia, she was constantly moved from town to town during her childhood and teen years. She seems to be a typical college student who enjoys having fun, but also struggles to maintain her scholarship at NYU. The problem is that her philosophy professor, Daniel Santino, seems to have it out for her. She becomes so flustered with his blatant open disregard for her, that she accidentally leaves her phone in his classroom. When she returns to the class to claim her phone, she draws the attention of the dark and alluring Ignazio Vitale who is paying a visit to her professor. In fact, twice on that same day, she runs into Naz. From the beginning, thirty-six year-old Naz wastes no time inserting himself into Karissa’s life.

I am not going to lie. I was completely creeped out after reading the prologue and first couple of chapters of Monster in His Eyes. Darhower wasted no time in setting the tone of suspense and drama in this story. Karissa is young and naïve, half of his age. Her father disappeared from the picture before she was even born, and her mother takes overprotective to a whole new level (which were both red flags, in my opinion). Naz is a hurricane force she is unable to resist – he pulls Karissa into a sexy, powerful and intense physical relationship. She mentions the term “wrecking ball” in her inner dialogue to describe Naz. He has a darkness to him that actually causes me to fear for her safety.

I loved this novel! I completely bonded with these characters – it is probably the reason why this novel frightened me so much. I have no idea how I am going to be able to wait for the second and final novel of this duology, Torture in Her Soul, which is planned for release later this year. I applaud the author for her creative ability and planning in writing this suspenseful, mysterious story. I want to express my appreciation to JM Darhower for the opportunity to review an advanced reader copy of this novel. I am so excited to give Monster in His Eyes the 5-star rating that it truly deserves!

Author Bio:

JM Darhower is the author of countless stories and poems, most of which only she has ever read. She lives in a tiny town in rural North Carolina, where she churns out more words than will ever see the light of day. She has a deep passion for politics and speaking out against human trafficking, and when she isn’t writing she’s usually ranting about those things. Chronic crimper with a vulgar mouth, she admits to having a Twitter addiction. You can find her there.

Review: Unstoppable by Melody Grace- The Callahans Series- Book 3

Posted on 09/19/2014 by shellbellereads

Unstoppable

The Callahans- Book 3

By Melody Grace

Synopsis

“My daddy always told me you could never run out of second chances…”

Tegan Callahan has sworn off bad boys for good. Growing up on tour with her rock star brother, she knows first-hand the damage they can do. She’s looking for a nice, safe, stable guy – until a chance encounter with a devastatingly sexy stranger makes her question everything she thought she wanted.

A troubled soul…

Ryland James arrives in Beachwood Bay on the run from his mistakes. He knows he’s the last thing Tegan needs, but somehow, he can’t stay away. There’s something about her fierce beauty that draws him in – and makes him vow to protect her, whatever the cost.

A passionate destiny…

Their bond is undeniable; the stakes, higher than ever. But the past won’t stay gone forever, and soon, Ryland must make the ultimate choice: will he risk everything he treasures in the world, or keep Tegan safe – and sacrifice her love forever?

*This book contains adult situations and explicit content. 17+*

Buy: Amazon / Barnes and Noble / ITunes

Tracey’s Review

Tegan Callahan is doing her best to come back from a year of heartbreak, a year of losing herself. Ryland James is ready to put his past behind him, to make a life that is permanent and real. Neither one would guess that a chance meeting in Las Vegas would bring them both everything that they’re looking for.

Melody Grace has a gift for writing characters that are complicated, that have pasts that are not perfect nor pretty. She is also gifted at crafting a story that shows the strength that is born out of such pain, and bringing imperfect people together to create a perfect whole. Her Beachwood Bay series has become one of my absolute favorites ever. The characters feel like old friends, and the sense of community draws me more deeply in each time I read about this lovely little town in coastal North Carolina. UNSTOPPABLE is the fifth book in this series, and is Tegan’s and Ryland’s story. I fell in love with Ryland from the moment he approached Tegan. He knows exactly what he wants, and he takes it, and Tegan, for all of her brokenness, gives back as good as she gets. Two people that have dealt with loss and pain, they smooth away the rough edges in each other, and allow real healing and growth to occur.

I feel like each installment in this series just gets better, and UNSTOPPABLE is no exception. I was hooked from the opening scene, and could not put it down. Watching the relationship between Tegan and Ryland unfold was both heartbreaking and uplifting, as well as, oh, my goodness, sexy as all getout. The heat between the two

of them is absolutely palpable, and had me fanning myself more than once. And getting to revisit and learn more about Brit, Hunter, Blake, and Zoey made the story even more real and rich. As with the rest of the Beachwood Bay books, I cannot recommend UNSTOPPABLE enough, and cannot wait to read UNWRITTEN, Zoey’s and Blake’s story.

Author Bio:

Melody Grace is a small-town girl turned SoCal beach lover. After spending her life with her nose in a book, she decided it was time she wrote one herself. She loves steamy romance novels, happily-ever-afters, and lusting after fictional menfolk.

Review: Blue Shoes Volume 3 by JJ Knight- Blue Shoes Serial- Morris Music Series- Book 8

Posted on 09/19/2014 by shellbellereads

Blue Shoes Volume 3

Blue Shoes Serial

Morris Music – Book 8

By JJ Knight

Synopsis

Dylan Wolf has shattered Jess Rivera’s heart for the last time.

Sometimes it feels like the whole world is against the couple’s love. Is it just bad luck, or is someone trying to destroy them both?

Jess works to unravel the mystery behind Dylan’s outrageous behavior.

When she finds out who’s behind the lies, she’ll take revenge, but in her own way.

BLUE SHOES Volume 3 is the third in a 3-part series about Jess Rivera and Dylan Wolf. This is the same couple from JJ KNIGHT’s 5-part REVENGE series, but BLUE SHOES can be enjoyed without having read the earlier books.

Michel’s Review

Blue Shoes Volume 3 is the conclusion to the Blue Shoes serial that is part of the Morris Music series.

The readers were left with a cliffhanger in the last book. After the fiasco in Rome and the events that took place before Dylan disappeared things are very sketchy. It appears the couple has broken up. The destruction done to their relationship is beyond repair.

Jess has always been a fighter. She was determined to get to find out who is behind the destruction of Dylan’s career and the destruction of their relationship.

Dylan has been in hiding. His reason’s are different than what we expected. He is questioning his relationship with Jess. He is questioning himself. He is questioning their interactions together. He doesn’t seem to be overly concerned with his music career spiraling out of control.

When Jess and Dylan finally get together and figure out their next moves, the readers will be in for quite a surprise. Is the end of their engagement final. Is the wedding cancelled? Is their relationship beyond repair? Together they will make some discoveries about themselves and their relationship. They will also discover the culprit behind all the destruction.

It will be up to them on how they move forward.

JJ Knight wrote an entertaining series that had reader’s hooked from the very first page. She created some interesting characters and put them in very different types of circumstances. She added a heated romance, some mysterious villains, and carefully plotted a story with many highs and lows that lead to a perfect ending.

The Blue Shoes serial is fantastic. I highly recommend this series.

ARC Review: Wickedly Dangerous by Deborah Blake- Baba Yaga Series- Book 1

Posted on 09/19/2014 by shellbellereads

Wickedly Dangerous

The Baba Yaga Series- Book 1

By Deborah Blake

Synopsis

Known as the wicked witch of Russian fairy tales, Baba Yaga is not one woman, but rather a title carried by a chosen few. They keep the balance of nature and guard the borders of our world, but don’t make the mistake of crossing one of them…

Older than she looks and powerful beyond measure, Barbara Yager no longer has much in common with the mortal life she left behind long ago. Posing as an herbalist and researcher, she travels the country with her faithful (mostly) dragon-turned-dog in an enchanted Airstream, fulfilling her duties as a Baba Yaga and avoiding any possibility of human attachment.

But when she is summoned to find a missing child, Barbara suddenly finds herself caught up in a web of deceit and an unexpected attraction to the charming but frustrating Sheriff Liam McClellan.

Now, as Barbara fights both human enemies and Otherworld creatures to save the lives of three innocent children, she discovers that her most difficult battle may be with her own heart…

Buy: Amazon / Barnes and Noble / ITunes

Tracey’s Review

ARC copy provided by Publisher, via NetGalley, in return for a fair and honest review.

Bad things are happening in Dunville, NY. Children are disappearing, leaving the townfolk fearful and on edge. Sheriff Liam McLellan is at wit’s end, and quickly losing credibility, the longer he is unable to crack the case. The last thing he needs is to deal with a stranger in town, especially when everyone is suspicious already. Barbara Yager is obviously not a local. With her exotic looks and accent, an ever-changing Airstream camper, and a dog that looks more like a small bear, she’s sure to stir things up. Liam’s just not sure that he’s ready for all that that means.

Now, I don’t know about anyone else, but, for me, the idea of Baba Yaga conjures up images of a scary old crone, who wasn’t particularly fond of children. Deborah Blake, however, has taken the Baba Yaga mythology and run with it. WICKEDLY DANGEROUS is a well-written and engaging take on the folklore associated with the Russian witch. While there are definitely romantic aspects to the story, it really is more of a paranormal mystery, with epic characters (Day, Sun, and Knight are wonderful, and Chudo-Yudo steals scenes left and right) and a fast-paced plot that kept me turning the pages. It was impossible not to fall for Liam, broken and humble guy that he is, and to really root for Baba to give in to her human characteristics, as she experienced feelings that she’d never known before. I’m glad to say that WICKEDLY DANGEROUS is the first in a new series, and I can’t wait to see what Deborah Blake has in store for her readers.

Double Coverage (Love and Sports, #2)

Unfortunate inconvenience, that is the way Piper describes her encounter with Mason Dashel. From the minute the alpha male interrupts her morning after hangover on the airplane, she can’t stand to be near the egotistical maniac with a booming voice and annoying sex appeal.

Psychotic Una-bomber with the constant mensies is the way Mason describes his flying companion, Piper Shores.

The two are like oil and water, a science experiment ready to explode any second but they can’t help but be drawn to each other. The only problem is… there are other people they are involved with who not only prevent Mason and Piper from being together, but interrupt any chance they have at making a relationship work.

About Meghan Quinn:

When I was in high school I occasionally read books but was consumed by other teenage things so I didn’t take the time to appreciate a good book on a cloudy day, wrapped up in a blanket on the couch, besides “The Notebook” I made time to read the heartbreaking novel.

It wasn’t until I received a Kindle for Christmas one year that my world completely flipped upside down. When looking for books, I came across the Contemporary Romance genre and was sold and I haven’t turned back since.

You can either find my head buried in my Kindle, listening to inspiring heart ripping music or typing away on the computer twisting and turning the lives of my characters while driving my readers crazy with anticipation.

I am currently residing in beautiful Colorado Springs where the sun is always shining and there is a trail waiting to be hiked on every corner. I share a lovely and warm home with the love of my life and my five, four-legged children.

Beautiful Bride

The REED BROTHERS Series

Book 5.6

By Tammy Falkner

Synopsis

Visit with:

Logan, Emily, and Kit

Pete and Reagan

Matt, Sky, Seth, Joey, Mellie, Hoppy and Matty

Paul, Friday, Hayley,

and PJ and Sam

The whole family is hanging out at the beach for a special event, and would love for you to come and join them. There might even be a wedding!

Buy: Amazon / Barnes and Noble / ITunes

Michel’s Review

Beautiful Bride is the next novella in the Reed Brothers series by Tammy Falkner. It is the other side of the last novella, Only One, that was released in August. This is from the Reed family POV.

Pete and Reagan gave up their wedding so that Carrie’s parents could get remarried before Carrie’s mother passed away from Cancer. Pete and Reagan, as well as the Reed family embraced their new neighbors and helped make their lives happier.

Pete and Reagan are going to do an impromptu wedding before they leave the beach. They want to do it before Sam has to leave to go back to school. When Reagan starts acting a little off , Pete begins to worry. He’s afraid she may be having second thoughts or that she may not want a family like he does.

This is another entertaining and powerful novella. Not only do we get an emotional moment in Pete and Reagan’s life, we also get snippets of the lives of the other Reed Brothers families and friends.

The Reed family is amazing. The love, support, compassion, and unification this family has is incredible. Each of the characters have very real personalities and very real flaws. They love fiercely and show it in many ways. They are dedicated to their family and friends.

I loved this novella. I will say that it left on a very disturbing cliffhanger concerning Sam.

Zip, Zero, Zilch is Sam’s upcoming book . It will be released in December.
