Excerpt

Putting a woman on her knees before me is what really makes my cock hard. I fuck with dominant force and absolute control. I demand complete surrender from my conquests.

Now I’ve been discovered. Forced to return to a world that I have forgotten about and to a culture that is only vaguely familiar to my senses.

Michel’s Review

Sawyer Bennett has set my panties on fire with her latest release, Uncivilized. She broke out of her comfort zone and delivered a blazing erotic romance that makes the body temperature soar. Unlike a lot of erotic romances, Uncivilized had a fantastic plot that was delivered with intelligence, compassion, and emotional depth. It was a unique take on Tarzan and Jane with a naughty twist. The characters were loaded with personality and raw sensuality.

Zach Easton went to the Amazon when he was a young boy with his missionary parents. His parents died from a jungle fever and the world presumed Zach had passed too. Eighteen years later, by word of mouth, it is discovered that there is a possibility that he is still alive.

Zach’s godfather hires an anthropologist that specializes in Caraican Indian tribes to help retrieve Zach and bring him home where he belongs.

Moira has been hired to bring Zach home and acclimate him into the modern world. Moira sees this as a challenge and great opportunity to further her research . When Moira first see’s Zach, her impressions are changed. She witnesses Zach dominating a woman from the tribe. This stirs her desires and sexual attraction to Zach. She can’t let her desires stand in the way of her job.

Quickly their roles change as they embark on acclimating Zach into society. Teacher becomes the student. The student becomes the teacher.

Zach is a sexual man, used to dominating women, and taking what he wants. He is used to doing whatever he wants without question. He is raw, carnal, and primitive.

And like most men, sex is always on his mind. He wants to learn all things sexual. Google is his best friend. He wants to be with Moira his way and her way. Both will learn some valuable lessons. Moira will learn the about her own sexuality and carnal side. Zach will learn about romance, emotions, and foreplay.

The thing I loved about Uncivilized was that is was more than an erotic take on Tarzan and Jane. Moira accepted Zach and his “uncivilized” ways. She didn’t judge his primitive ways and make them seem wrong. She taught him what he needed to know to be able to survive in our modern society. She showed him compassion and respect. She admired his intelligence and strength.

Zach respected Moira for her knowledge, her femininity, and understanding. She taught him that the emotional side of coupling was just as important as the carnal side. She taught him the values of love and family that were much more personal than his primal ways.

Sawyer Bennett has a gift with words that draws the reader in, breathes life into her characters, and makes the reader feel every moment. She adds the right amount of humor and wit to make the characters and their lives seem very real. She allows her characters to have flaws and strengths that most readers can relate to and understand. Her stories come to life and jump off the pages. Readers are thoroughly entertained with a hot passionate romance.

Uncivilized is one of the most passionate books I have read. Sawyer Bennett has delivered a five flaming star book!

Read Uncivilized! It is …HOT…HOT…HOT!

 A Fighter’s Desire – Part 2
By L. P. Dover
Release Date: September 26, 2014
Buy: Amazon 
A FIGHTER’S DESIRE – PART ONE
Two is always better than one.
What would you do if you were given the chance to spend the night with not one, but two
fighters? Would you do it? Could you open yourself up to the pleasures they
offered and do exactly what they said in order to pass on to the next round?
It was common knowledge that Ryley and Camden Jameson, well-known MMA fighters and
identical twins, were just as aggressive and passionate in the bed as they were
in the ring. The only problem was that if you didn’t pass their test on the
first night, then you didn’t proceed to the next round. They loved a good
fight, and that’s what they got when they met Ashleigh Warren.
Ashleigh knew what was going to happen when the twins approached her with a proposition,
and needless to say, she knew exactly how to handle them … or so she thought.
The rules had changed, and in order to get them both she had to first spend one
night with each and last until they were done with her. It was a proposition
she couldn’t refuse, but she knew it wouldn’t be easy to win. However, it was
one that she was going to enjoy.
A FIGHTER’S DESIRE – PART TWO
When you’re told to stay away from someone or something it only drives the urge to go after
it more. In this case, that was exactly what happened. For years, Gabriella
Reynolds—younger sister of MMA’s Heavyweight Champion, Matt Reynolds—was warned
by him to stay away from his fighter friends; she deserved better and they
would only break her heart.
Did she listen? Yes, for a while, but temptation can only consume you so much until you
fall into its trap. There’s a certain fighter she’s interested in, and it just
so happens that he’s her brother’s best friend, the only one that is completely
off limits to her. However, she’s not the only one fighting temptation. Tyler
Rushing can’t deny his attraction to her, but he’s afraid she’ll want more and
he can’t give that to her. When he finds out that’s not the case … everything changes.
Secrets can be dangerous, but they can also be thrilling and intense. Gabriella and Tyler
have no choice but to keep their time together a secret … and it’s a secret
that’ll stay with them forever.

EXCERPT
PART 1:
“You don’t even know me,” I challenged. “Why do you want me to be your date? You saw
me for one second when you were up in the ring. I could be the biggest bitch in
the world for all you know.”
“That could be true. If you want the honest
truth,” he said, gazing down my body, “I saw you in that red dress and all I
could think about was how hot it would be to fuck you in it.”
Holding in my gasp, I tightened my legs together to keep my clit from throbbing out of
control. It pissed me off that my body responded to him, but it could also be
because he was so close; brushing his heated body against mine, and smelling so
amazingly delicious. The wild side of me wanted to tell him to take me right
then and there, but the logical side wanted to slap the shit out of him.
“Do you honestly get women by saying stuff like that?” I asked dryly, without a
hint of a smile.
His grin grew wider. “Most of the time. So what do you say? Do you want to be my
date for the night … the whole
night?”
Yes, my mind screamed at me.
“No,” I snapped, making his smug smile disappear. “I’m not one of your little
groupies, Ryley, and I sure as hell am not going to beg for your attention like
what you’re used to. You need to find someone else. I’m not interested.”
You just lied again, I scolded myself.
Turning on my heel, I headed for the door and opened it, only to be stopped by a hand
grasping my arm and the door shutting quickly in front of me. “Don’t you see? I
don’t want anyone else. I saw you and you are what I want.”
Laughing, I turned around and yanked my arm out of his hold. “Tell that to someone who’ll
believe you, Ryley. I don’t fall that easily, especially for someone who hasn’t
had to work for a woman. You’ll have to do much better than that.”
Or else I’m not going to play the game.
Fighters Desire_PARTTWOA Fighter’s Desires -Part 2

Breathing hard, I stepped out of Tyler’s reach and started for the door, much to his dismay. “Why are you here, Gabriella?”

Keeping my back to him, I paused with my hand on the knob, and blew out a heavy sigh. “I told you. When I want something, I get it. I wanted to see you.”

“You’re walking a dangerous line, Gabriella. I don’t do relationships, and I don’t plan on starting … even if it is with you.”

I glanced at him over my shoulder. “Well, then I guess it’s a good thing I don’t want one with you either. Look, Tyler, I’m only here for the weekend. If you want to see me again you know how to find me. No strings, just you and me.”

Gloves Off Series- Book 2

Release Date: October 6, 2014

By L. P. Dover

Synopsis

She was what he wanted … but she was also his undoing.

Through mutual understanding, Tyler’s secret affair with Gabriella Reynolds has come to an end. It was a decision that not only saved their friendship, but it was one that would change Tyler Rushing’s life forever.

For the past couple of years, Tyler was known as being one of the UFC’s most memorable and sexy heavyweight fighters. Now he has the chance to win the title and claim the fame he so deserves. Having all the women he wanted was the highlight of his days; at least until Kacey Andrews walked through the door of his gym. He couldn’t keep his eyes off of her; there was an innocence about her that sparked his interest and he wasn’t going to give up until he had her. Little did he know that Kacey Andrews wasn’t a stranger … she was part of his world; he just didn’t know it. It was a secret she’d worked hard to keep hidden.

Kacey spent years trying to get away from the fighting world, away from the man who was hated among the MMA elite … her brother, Kyle Andrews. Unfortunately, she was brought back into it when Tyler’s relentless battle for her heart won her over, drawing her in. The only problem is that secrets never stay buried forever. In the end, Tyler will have a decision to make, and it’s one that could possibly destroy his and Kacey’s life … forever.

Excerpt

Down the hall, I saw Gabriella, dressed in a white sundress with her long, dark hair pulled high into a ponytail.

What the fuck? Tell me she’s not knocking on Tyler’s door.

My stomach coiled into knots and I held my breath as I waited on whoever was behind the door to answer. Please don’t let it be Tyler. Slowly, the door opened just a crack and when I saw who was there I gritted my teeth tight, the pain exploding into my head. It was Tyler, wearing only a white towel around his waist. Blood boiling, I watched as he opened the door and she walked in, kissing him on the cheek as she passed.

Frozen in place, I clenched my hands into tight fists and felt the anger boil through my veins. Before Tyler shut the door, he stopped and slowly directed his attention to me. Immediately, he glanced into his room and then back at me, wide-eyed and shaking his head. “Kacey, no,” he shouted. “It’s not what you think.”

Turning on my heel, I glared at him one more time over my shoulder before taking off down the hall.

“Kacey, stop! Please, beautiful . . .”

I didn’t stop; I kept going. The last thing I wanted was to be made a fool of in front of everyone—possibly people who knew my brother and who could recognize me. Instead, I kept running in hopes of getting as far away as I could, away from Tyler’s voice screaming my name.

Looking back, I didn’t see him behind of me, but when I turned around, I ran right into a set of arms that closed tightly around my waist.

“Kacey, what the hell are you doing here?”

Immediately, I froze and glanced up into the same set of sea green eyes I used to look at almost every day of my life. “Paxton,” I breathed.

Tyler shouted my name and Paxton instinctively held me tighter, protectively. “What’s going on?” he demanded, glaring down at me.

He looked like he was about to leave anyway since he was dressed in a black T-shirt and jeans with his bag slung over his shoulder. Quickly, I pushed him toward one of the doors. “I can explain, but first, I need you to get me out of here.”

“Is that Rushing calling after you?”

“Yes, now let’s go!”

Keeping his arm around me, he rushed me toward the door and out into the heat-filled night. What the hell was I going to do now?

About INSPIRE:

Kalliope lives with one purpose.

To inspire.

As an immortal muse, she doesn’t have any other choice. It’s part of how she was made. Musicians, artists, actors—they use her to advance their art, and she uses them to survive. She moves from one artist to the next, never staying long enough to get attached. But all she wants is a different life— a normal one. She’s spent thousands of years living lie after lie, and now she’s ready for something real.

Sweet, sexy, and steady, Wilder Bell feels more real than anything else in her long existence. And most importantly… he’s not an artist. He doesn’t want her for her ability. But she can’t turn off the way she influences people, not even to save a man she might love. Because in small doses, she can help make something beautiful, but her ability has just as much capacity to destroy as it does to create. The longer she stays, the more obsessed Wilder will become. It’s happened before, and it never turns out well for the mortal.

Her presence may inspire genius.

But it breeds madness, too.

Michel’s Review

We met Lindsay and Matt in the previous novel in the Unbreakable series by Rebecca Shea.  They are getting their own story in Unforgiven.

Unforgiven is an emotional story.  It is a story of love lost, poor decisions, addiction, eating disorders, and healing.

Lindsay is offered her dream job in Arizona.  She does not hesitate on making the decision of taking the job.  She makes this decision knowing that Matt will not follow her to Arizona.  She does not stop to think about the damage this decision can do to their relationship.  She does not stop to think about the consequences she will suffer if she loses Matt.  She is self centered and selfish concerning her dream job.  Needless to say, not only does she damage her relationship with Matt, she more or less severs it completely.

Once she is in Arizona things look a little differently.  Her dream job is not as wonderful as she thought it would be.  She is lonely and missing her friends and family.  She is heartbroken from losing Matt.  While she is pursuing her dream job, she is self destructing in her personal life.  She will hit rock bottom, hurt the ones she loves, betray friends, and almost kill herself.  Now she will have to learn to live with her mistakes, take back control of her life, make amends with those she hurt, and find happiness within herself.  The one thing she desires most is Matt’s love once again.  How will she be able to repair the heartbreak she caused by choosing a job over his love?

Matt gave Lindsay his complete heart.  He was devastated when she chose her job over him.  Her actions in Arizona were like pouring salt into his wounds.  He wants the best for Lindsay and hopes she finds peace in her life.  He doesn’t know if he can dismiss her callous treatment of his love.

I loved the emotional side of the story.  I thought Lindsay’s journey from hitting her all time low to healing and finding the true meaning of happiness was heartbreaking and uplifting.  Rebecca Shea did a beautiful job portraying those circumstances.

What I found disappointing is the book seemed to focus on Lindsay.  There were small amounts of Matt’s side of the story.  The reader did not get to see much of their romance in the beginning.  It was hard to validate their decision to get back together in the end.  There was not much build up, romantic interaction, and validation.  Most of this book focused on the time of their separation.  I would of liked to see more romance.

I am happy that Lindsay and Matt got the happily ever after they needed.

I would highly recommend this book and the Unbreakable series.

CAISEY’S CASTING PICKS
FateDreamCast

EXCERPT

“God, you’re so f*cking beautiful.”
Her eyes widened up at him. She could only imagine how she looked. Hair messy and damp, his shirt sliding off one shoulder, eyes glazed over.
“You are.” He shook his head as if searching for the words to explain his attraction to her. “That first night, swear to everything holy, I thought you might be some mythical creature come to steal my soul. But you were so damn beautiful that I would have given it to you.”
She kept quiet, afraid to move or speak and risk breaking the magic that kept him with her, kept him from running. He wasn’t running. He was opening up and being honest.
Dean lowered himself into the bed beside her, propping on one elbow and facing her. Fate mirrored his position and admired the way the moonlight lit his handsome face.
“I asked the universe for a sign. It sent me you.”
Her whispered confession made him smile. But his expression turned serious far too soon for her liking. “I felt it the moment I saw you. A compulsion like I’d never felt before, as if some unseen force propelled me toward you without my consent. I’ve felt it ever since.”
Fate rested her head on her hands and nodded against them. “I feel it too. I’m just…a little afraid of it. Of what it might cost us.”
“My mom used to say that things worth having didn’t come easy and that the kind of girl that was worth waiting for wouldn’t wait on anyone. Those two adages keep coming back to me every time I think of you.”
She inched her hand over toward his. “Do you do that often? Think of me?”
Dean kept eye contact, only breathing and watching her. “Define often.”
Fate grinned. “More than once a week.”
The slight curve of his lips faded and his gaze became a heavy, tangible thing she could feel pressing into her.
“I thought of you every day, Fate. And I didn’t even know your name. Even after I did… I think after that, it was more like several times a day.”
She wanted to keep this moment, to keep him here with her just like this. Both of them exposed and vulnerable. It was real and honest and—despite her exhaustion— exhilarating. But she knew it wouldn’t last forever. Nothing ever did.
“Sleep with me tonight. Don’t leave. Just… Just sleep with me, please.”
He nodded, letting his fingers interlace with hers between them and placing a soft kiss on the top of her hand. “I’m not going anywhere. Goodnight, sweetheart.”
“Goodnight, Dean.”
*PLAYLIST TRACK: Stay with Me by Sam Smith*
6 star

Kelley’s Review

This is a book that you pick up and can’t put down until it’s over and even then you are wishing there were just a few more pages.

Dean would have never thought in a million years that the woman he found running down the beach would memorize him for months to come.   She was absolutely stunning and almost angelic.  She wanted Dean not for who he was or for the money he had, she just wanted the man and he wanted to know more about her. Dean wondered when it was all over if it was just a dream.  He had her in his arms one moment and in the next she was gone.

Fate was so furious.  She had changed her life for Trevor.  She had molded herself into everything he could have ever wanted. She picked the wedding dress he liked, the cake he liked.  Everything was about making Trevor happy.  She even drank red wine because he insisted on ordering it for her.  She hated it.  The only thing she held onto was her virginity.  She wanted their wedding night to be special.  A night to remember.  She ever expected that the night before her wedding would be the one she would never forget.  When she found her maid of honor in the wine celler with her fiance she snapped.  She asked for a sign and then ran smack dab into Dean.  He was gorgeous and sexy and she needed to forget Trevor and do something spontaneous and crazy and so she decided a one stop roll in the sand might be what she needs.

Casiey does an excellent job brining two broken people together that were never meant to be.  Dean has watched his father go through women like tissues and is not interested in settling down anytime soon.  Fate is fighting what she feels for Dean because she saw how her mother went through men and then there was the whole Trevor thing.  Some how Casiey has them facing their demons and grabbing on to something real.

I adored this read.  I was sucked in by the pre-quel novella.  If you want a read that you can’t put down that is filled with forbidden love and smoking hot chemistry then you will love Falling For Fate.

Synopsis

Dark desires…Deadly secrets…Devious deceptions…Nothing is exactly as it seems in INSIDIOUS, the new erotic thriller from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author ALEATHA ROMIG!

When a powerful man is willing to risk everything for his own satisfaction, only one woman can beat him at his own game: his wife. Or so she thinks…

“Let’s start with you calling me Stewart. Formalities seem unnecessary.”

Stewart Harrington is rich, gorgeous, and one of the most powerful men in Miami. He always gets what he wants. Anything is available to him for the right price.

Even me.

Being the wife of a mogul comes with all the perks, but being Mrs. Stewart Harrington comes with a few special requirements. I’ve learned to keep a part of myself locked away as my husband watches me submit to his needs. But the more he demands of me, the more beguiled he becomes and that’s to my advantage. So I keep fulfilling his fantasies and following his rules because he doesn’t know that what he’s playing is really my game. And winning is everything, right?

INSIDIOUS is a stand-alone novel and the first Tales from the Dark Side title by ALEATHA ROMIG.

**Due to the dark and explicit nature of this book, it is recommended for mature audiences only. **

Teaser:

I play the role well.
The grieving widow is a new one, but I can do it: shaking hands, sad smiles, even a tear or two when necessary. The acting isn’t new. I’ve been doing it my whole life.
The truth is too painful to reveal, too upsetting for those around me. They don’t want to see who I truly am…what I truly am.
They don’t want to know I’m a killer.
