Michel’s Review

Wow! Black Lies was brilliant! Alessandra Torre delivered a captivating book with an intricate plot that had readers addicted within the first few chapters. She wove a web of mystery, deceit, and intrigue that had the readers guessing what was to come next. Her complex characters captured the reader’s attention and refused to be ignored. Black Lies is a stand alone romance that is very well written. It is a “must read now” kind of book.

This will be a spoiler free review that does not focus on the characters or plot in a detailed way. It is based on my reactions to this story and the brilliant writing.

The blurb for this book had me intrigued. I was under the expectations of a love triangle kind of romance where two men are vying for one woman’s heart. And it was in every sense but the twists and turns make it unique in a very different kind of way.

One woman wants both of these men. She has captured both of their hearts. She fights to keep both of their love. In the end she will have to choose one man. In the end she hopes her fight was worth it.

These complex characters will capture your attention. One moment you will intensely dislike them and the next moment you will be rooting for their happiness. You will understand their actions, choices, and outcome. Everything is not black and white and there is a very fine line in the gray.

On the surface it will appear that one of the characters is the true villain of the story. But like most things there are many layers. The layers will be peeled and more deceitful actions will make the reader question the motivations. Once the true villain of this story is exposed it is almost impossible to defeat it.

Alessandra Torre created a complex romance that was mind boggling. It was compelling and loaded with gritty passion. The entire story was a beautiful rendition of what real love is all about.

I highly recommend this book.

Review: Carnage- The Story of Us and Carnage 2-The Story of Me by Lesley Jones

Carnage

Carnage – The Story Of Us

By Lesley Jones

2cb3f-add-to-goodreads-button

Synopsis:

I love him, from the instant I set eyes on him when I was just 11 years old I have loved him and nothing will ever change that, he owns me, he owns my heart and he owns my body and no matter how many lies are told, no matter how many people conspire to keep us apart, despite the fame and the distance, we will find a way.

“Georgia Rae, when we made love you used to cry”… He waits for me to sing my bit. I try to swallow down a sob but I just end up singing through it…

“I said I love you like the stars above, I’ll love you till I die”

Carnage, an edgy coming of age love story that breaks all the rules and transcends the decades. Georgia and Sean’s story will stay with you long after you read the final word.

An emotional, smoking hot, gut wrenching read

Carnage was written and can be read as a stand alone but due to popular demand and threats of violence towards the author, there will now be a book #2 out on August 1st 2014

Buy: Amazon

5 Star Read

Michel’s Review

Carnage by Lesley Jones is a love story that spans a twenty year period. The reader will experience the splendor of youthful dreams, the wildness of teenagers in love, the emotional roller coaster of the “first love” romance, the journey into adulthood, the maturity coming from life experiences, and finally fulfilling the dreams of the heart.

It is a beautifully written story that will touch your heart with joy and break your soul into pieces. It is the story of living and loving. It is a story that showcases love in all it’s beauty and all it’s ugliness. It also reinforces the importance of family and friends.

It is a brilliant story that will touch your heart.

I cannot say much more because it would give too many spoilers. This is a book you will want to experience in all it’s richness and glory.

**Warning…Get a big box of tissues**

Michel’s Review

Carnage 2 picks up where Carnage left off. Readers were demanding this author write a follow up book. We needed to know the rest of the story.

Carnage 2 did not touch me the way the first novel did. I liked it and liked how the author layed out the steps of rebuilding one’s life. She allowed her main character Georgia to mature as an individual, find a new confidence in herself, recognize her good and bad traits, confront the truths of the heart, and learn to appreciate life in a new way.

I did find that the book was a bit repetitive and overly dramatic in many ways. I found the characters to be a bit too emotional at times and not emotional enough at other times. I still loved them all and was satisfied how their lives turned out.

I would highly recommend reading this book after reading book 1, Carnage- The Story of Us.

These two books are unforgettable and will stay with me for a long time.

Author Bio:

Lesley JonesI was born and raised in a small working class town in Essex, just outside of East London. I am married with three sons and in 2006 we all moved to the other side of the world, settling on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, about 50K outside of Melbourne Australia. It’s a whole new way of life for us down here,we are so lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the world.

I am currently a stay at home mum but in the past I have worked at Marks & Spencer, as a classroom assistant/teachers aid and have run my business.
As well as writing, I love to read and have been known to get through four or five books a week. My other interests are watching my boys play football…The round ball version; I am happy to admit to being an addict of social media and I owe a lot to my Facebook and Twitter family in promoting my work; I am also rather partial to a glass… or bottle of wine, a nicely chilled Marlborough Sav Blanc being my favorite. Being a born and raised Essex girl, I will happily admit to be being a big fan of spray tans, Shellac and am regularly, waxed, tinted and sculpted, although I am more likely to be found in thongs/flipflops than a pair of white stilettos these days.

Take It Off Series – Book 10

2cb3f-add-to-goodreads-button

By Cambria Hebert

Synopsis

She’s trying to move on, but the past won’t let her go.

I fell in love once.

It was a big mistake, but the biggest mistake of all was staying with him.

He pushed me around. He cheated and treated me like trash.

I don’t feel sorry for myself, because I let him.

But no more.

I moved out. I’m saving my stripper’s salary for an education that will get me somewhere better.

But breaking the chains of a shitty past isn’t easy. He says I owe him. He says we aren’t done. I don’t care what he says anymore.

I do care about Adam.

But my history tells me I’m not the best judge of men. And the fact Adam’s been married four times tells me he probably isn’t a safe choice.

I need safe. I need better. I need out.

If the past is any indication of my future, getting out isn’t going to be easy.

Buy: Amazon / Barnes and Noble

Excerpt

“Kiss me.”

He didn’t need to be told twice. In seconds he was standing to his full impressive height and towed me up along with him. Adam released my hand and cupped my face. His hands engulfed my jaw but he was so gentle. His eyes swept over me like I was the most beautiful thing he’d ever seen and around us sparks flew like snowflakes in a blizzard.

Instead of crushing his mouth to mine like I expected, like I wanted, he took his time. His heated gaze dropped to my lips, then back to my eyes. His fingers spasmed against my head and tightened ever so slightly.

Slowly, slowly he lowered his head, cupping my jaw so that I could do nothing but hold still and wait for him to arrive.

The anticipation of his lips on mine was almost my undoing. Everything going on inside me head floated away. I became aware of the moment, of the quietness in the room, of the way my body swayed wanting to get closer.

Adam’s lips brushed over mine, a gentle caress, once, twice and then a third time. He lifted his head just slightly and stared down at me, his thumb climbed up and caressed my lower lip.

He smiled softly and then joined our lips once more.

Guarding His Heart

Forever Love Series – Book 4

2cb3f-add-to-goodreads-button

By J. S. Cooper

Synopsis

Guarding His Heart is a STANDALONE book with no cliffhanger

Leonardo Maxwell was shocked when his best friend, Zane Beaumont fell in love and got married. While he is happy for his friend, he knows that he definitely doesn’t want to go the love and marriage route. He knows that there is nothing that can come from either of the two.

When his father calls him and tells him that it’s time for him to take over the family business, he does so reluctantly. He’s never liked the attention he gets as a billionaire’s son, but he knows it’s his duty.

Leo is not prepared for the animosity that he gets from his new assistant, Hannah on his first day of work. He has no idea why she hates him, but he’s glad for it. He doesn’t have time to waste staring at her beautiful long legs or her pink luscious lips. As far as he’s concerned they can have a strictly professional relationship. However, that all changes when they go on their first work trip together.

Guarding His Heart is recommended for readers age 18 and over, due to mature situations and language.

Michel’s Review

Guarding His Heart by J. S. Cooper is book four in the Forever Love series. I was really looking forward to this book’s release. The Forever Love series is one of my favorites and I loved the characters throughout the series. We met Leo Maxwell in this series. He is Zane Beaumont’s best friend. Throughout the series we got the impression that Leo was a pretty intense kind of guy. He worked as a bodyguard and came across as tough guy. Guarding His Heart shows another side to Leo’s personality.

Leo has given up his job as a bodyguard to go back to work in his father’s corporation. It’s time for him to step up to his rightful place as the heir to his father’s empire. He took the job that his assistant Hannah rightfully deserved. No wonder she hates him. The two begin a very rocky working relationship. Hannah feels that Leo is not competent enough to take over this job. He gives her the impression that he is an easy going man whore that is more interested in getting into her pants than getting the job done. She has worked hard to get where she is professionally. She may have to look elsewhere for career advancement if Leo continues in the direction he is going.

When a business trip turns into a disaster, Leo manages to make the most of it with Hannah. The two embark in a heated, purely sexual affair. They think they can keep their affair out of the office, keep it on friendly terms, with no commitments. Easier said than done.

When their secret affair is exposed Leo will have to decide if he dedicated to his career or  if he is a dedicated to Hannah enough to sacrifice his job.

Guarding His Heart was a fluffy kind of romance. It showed the playful side of love. It proved that even the die hard bachelors can fall when the right woman comes along. I liked the lightness of this book.  It was a fun read.

Michel-@shellbellereads Review

15833985-like-symbol-isolated-on-white

Follow by JA Huss is the first book in the Social Media series by JA Huss. Follow features Grace Kinsella , an ordinary girl, that lives for her dirty twitting. Her star fantasy man is Vaughn Asher. She has propositioned him, suggested kinky sex, and engaged in oral wordplay.

While on vacation in St.Thomas , she meets the real Vaughn Asher. He is nothing like her fantasy sex God. He is controlling, dominant, and demands a contract for sexual engagement with him. Although Grace is intrigued by some of his kinky requests, she cannot submit to him the way he wants her to. She is disillusioned. He is intrigued.

 

Grace leaves St. Thomas and her fantasties behind. She’s done with Vaughn Asher and her filthy tweets.

Vaughn Asher will Follow Grace no matter what. He is not done. He wants more than a filthy tweet. He wants Grace to submit. Vaughn Asher always gets what he wants. He wants Grace.

Will Grace block Vaughn or will she Like. We will find out in Like- book 2.

 

Author Bio:

JAJ. A. Huss likes to write new adult books that make you think and keep you guessing. Her favorite genre to read is space opera, but since practically no one reads those books, she writes new adult science fiction, paranormal romance, contemporary romance, urban fantasy, and books about Junco (who refuses to be saddled with a label).

She has an undergraduate degree in horses, (yes, really–Thank you, Colorado State University) and a master’s degree in forensic toxicology from the University of Florida. She used to have a job driving around Colorado doing pretty much nothing but shooting the breeze with farmers, but now she just writes, runs the New Adult Addiction and Clean Teen Reads Book Blogs, and runs an online science classroom for homeschoolers.

Smut Book Junkie Reviews is alleging that the Reasonable Doubt Series by Whitney G. caused addiction, emotional fluctuation, and sensual stimulation. They are trying to prove beyond Reasonable Doubt that this series has earned a 5 Star rating and delivered an emotional literary experience. The Reasonable Doubt Series has led readers to experience reading addiction, release date trauma and anxiety, and undying love for a self-serving prick, Andrew Hamilton. The emotional trauma this man put Aubrey Everhart through had readers thoroughly appalled. The readers had high hopes that Aubrey would prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that Andrew Hamilton needed to be punished for the crimes of the heart and that justice would be served.

 Michel Reinhard:

Reasonable Doubt 1 is one hot, erotic book! The writing was superb! It was clever, snarky, funny, delicious, mysterious and intensely erotic. The characters were compelling.

Attorney Andrew Hamilton makes Christian Grey, Gideon Cross, Colton Donavan, and James Cavendish look like amateurs. He makes no apologies for how he is.

Aubrey Everhart is a pre-law student and ballerina. Aubrey becomes an intern at Andrew’s law firm. Andrew can’t keep his hands off of her. It is a battle of wills, an erotic battle, and only one victor. Both have secrets that can tear this fragile relationship into an all out war.

As this tumultuous relationship progresses, it will become even more disastrous. A revelation will be made that will expose Andrew’s

secrets. This volume ends on a monstrous cliffhanger.

 

dreamstime_large_crop2Kelley Hawthorne Jefferson:

Wow! Reasonable Doubt 1 was so hot my e-reader about melted. What are the chances that you would meet the man in real life that you have only ever talked to online? What person is the real you? The persona you created when you never thought you would meet in person or the person you are here and now.

I loved watching Andrew try to figure out what he should do next and Aubrey did not put up with his crap for one second. Her snark and wit had me laughing as I turned the pages.

RD1 left us on a spicy high note with a twist that had us stalking Whitney’s FB page waiting for her to give us just a little taste of RD2.

Our conversations were long over. There was nothing more we had to discuss.

We talked. We fucked. That was the end of us.

 TESTIMONIESreasonable2

dreamstime_large_crop2

Michel Reinhard

I devoured this book the moment it was downloaded. WOW…what a wild ride! Not only was this installment in the Reasonable Doubt serial extremely erotic, it was also intense. The plot escalated beyond the reader’s expectations and ended on a cliffhanger that left a knot in your stomach. It left the reader with sympathy for Andrew. It gave us an understanding why he is an absolute prick. But what it doesn’t reveal is what happened. That will be in the next installment. I am positive that all of those who have read this installment want the next installment now!

Andrew and Aubrey are complicated characters. Andrew is the type of character that you really don’t want to like. He doesn’t treat Aubrey all that well but it’s obvious he is delusional about his real feelings. Once his secrets begin to unravel we see a completely different person. Aubrey, on the other hand, is compelling. She is a strong woman. She fights for what she wants and doesn’t back down. She has a lot to give. It’s unfortunate that those who should care about her only want to take from her. They don’t care if she has to make sacrifices that will cost her dreams and her heart. I wanted smack down Andrew, her parents, and those who were treating her badly. I am hoping that Aubrey will come out the victor and that all her dreams will come true.

I could not wait for Reasonable Doubt Volume 3 to release.

dreamstime_large_crop2Kelley Hawthorne Jefferson:

I was up until 1:30 am when RD2 hit my kindle. I mean how in the hell was Andrew going to explain what happened at the end of RD1. What was really exciting about this series is that Whitney kept Andrew with his same true colors throughout the book. He was a character that you hated. He was hot, sexy, alpha, and broody and you wanted him to tear off your clothes and at the same time you wanted to slap him across the face. I was dying to figure out what the hell made Andrew such a jerk.

Aubrey was going through so much as it was trying to make her dream happen that everyone told her never would. She was not good enough for anyone including her parents, her teachers, and the man who unfortunately, she was falling in love with. She really read Andrew wrong and once he showed his true colors again she did not have much of a choice. It was do or die time and she was on her own.

When I finished RD2 I was saying a prayer for Andrew. I was praying for redemption and for him to pull his head out of his ass before it was too late.

 

Andrew Hamilton:10626749_835537593145465_9067799165142491597_n

 I was officially done with this monogamous game we’d been playing for the past couple weeks. It was quite fun-different, but since Aubrey could never be mine and I could never be hers, it quite fucking pointless too.

 

10556528_835592723139952_7511145220770826380_nAubrey Everhart:

You are a disgusting and vile asshole, and I honestly regret ever sleeping with you.

 “Seeing as I’m the only one between us who actually feels anything, yes. Yes, that is how I really feel about you.”

 Michel Reinhard:

Reasonable Doubt Volume 3 went way beyond the readers expectations. Whitney G delivered a grand finale that readers are going to more than satisfied with.

 The tumultuous relationship between Aubrey and Andrew has clearly come to a conclusion. The closing arguments were delivered. The jury deliberated from page one to the very last word. The final conclusion and verdict were unanimous. The verdict was that Whitney G. and her Reasonable Doubt series had earned a 5 star review based upon the facts, the evidence, and proof beyond Reasonable Doubt.

The alleged addiction, emotional trauma , sensual expectations, and release date anxiety were clearly the readers reactions. Whitney G. did her job as a writer and delivered an outstanding literary experience.

 Kelley Hawthorne Jefferson:

This is where you turn the pages slowly and relish each moment as it will be the last time you get to spend time with Andrew and Aubrey and learn anything new about what is going on in their lives. I think Whitney G. gave us a beautiful end to a very dark emotional rollercoaster ride and delivered the best Andrew and Aubrey there could be. I as well as several other readers will never accept this as the end and will beg Whitney mercilessly to write another chapter. This series was filled with just the right amount of spice, snark, wit, sexual tension, and angst to earn a Five Star Review by the Smut Book Junkies. Whitney G. will forever have a place in our heart, mind, body, and spirit as well as a special place on our e-readers. When people ask for reading recommendations the Reasonable Doubt Series will be on the tip of our tongue and at the top of our list. Bravo Ms. Gracia Williams on a job well done!

Finding: The court’s or jury’s decision on issues of fact.

The court has found that Whitney G. did her job as an author and delivered a literary experience that earned a 5 STAR Review for the complete Reasonable Doubt Series. Whitney G. developed charismatic characters whose behaviors and emotions captured the reader’s attention.  Their story may have caused emotional angst, release date trauma, and reading addiction.  That proves beyond Reasonable Doubt that Whitney G. did her job as an author and upheld her responsibility to deliver an unforgettable reading experience.

The court also finds that Andrew Hamilton was indeed an obnoxious prick with just cause. Andrew Hamilton will be placed on house arrest under the supervision of Aubrey Everhart until the court deems that he has paid for his crimes of the heart.

Aubrey Everhart will be awarded Andrew Hamilton’s heart with the contingency of a lifetime of devotion.

Smut Book Junkie will pay restitution to Whitney G. by awarding her a 5 Star Review for the Reasonable Doubt Series.  Smut Book Junkie will also award the Reasonable Doubt Series the acknowledgment of a 2014 Favorite Read.

The court also recommends that readers purchase this series for an outstanding literary experience.5 Star Read

My cock has an appetite.

A huge and very particular appetite: Blonde, curvy, and preferably not a fucking liar…(Although, that’s a story for another day.)

As a high profile lawyer, I don’t have time to waste on relationships, so I fulfill my needs by anonymously chatting and sleeping with women I meet online.

My rules are simple: One dinner. One night. No repeats.

This is only casual sex. Nothing more. Nothing less.

At least it was, until “Alyssa”…

She was supposed to be a 27 year old lawyer, a book hoarder, and completely unattractive. She was supposed to be someone I shared law advice with late at night, someone I could trust with details of my weekly escapades.

But then she came into my firm for an interview–a college-intern interview, and everything fucking changed…

Buy: Amazon / Barnes and Noble / ITunes

reasonable2She lied to me…

She betrayed the one rule that I’m most adamant about: Honesty. Complete and utter fucking honesty.

I really wish she was someone else—someone who didn’t have the ability to make me feel, someone I could easily discard like the hundreds of women before her.

She isn’t.

I’m drawn to her like I’ve never been drawn to a woman before—completely captivated by the very sight of her. But unfortunately, with my past slowly re-surfacing for all of the world to see, I’ll have to find a way to let her go.

She can never be mine.

Buy: Amazon / Barnes and Noble / ITunes

reasonable3I hate him…

I hate that I fell in love with him, I hate that he didn’t love me back, and I hate the fact that I just made a life-altering decision just so I could get the hell away from him.

He’d always said that he was unchangeable, heartless, and cold…

I really should’ve believed him…

Cover Reveal: Presently Perfect by Alison G. Bailey- The Perfect Series

We are excited to bring you the cover reveal for the third and final book in the Perfect series, PRESENTLY PERFECT, scheduled for release on November 6th!!

Synopsis

Perfection is an illusion fueled by the perception of others.

***

Tweet was my heart, my soul, and my purpose. She was my everything.

Neither of us were perfect. We both made mistakes. Looking back, that was okay, because every choice
brought us to where we needed to be at the time we needed to be there. The one constant, our love
and friendship.

There are two sides to every story and I wouldn’t trade our sides for anything in the world.

ExcerptWhen was the last time you came?

Is someone there with you now — touching you, teasing your stiff nipples, making you beg and moan? Are there hands on your body, sliding over your damp skin? A hard, thick cock driving deep inside you, relentless, until you think you’ll lose your mind?

Or are you alone?

The lights dimmed, your legs easing apart. Fingers, stroking lower. Your head falling back against the pillows.

What do you imagine when you close your eyes?

One lover, or many? A soft touch, or a punishing grip: fingers digging into your thighs, holding you down, fisting your hair in a tight knot as you part your lips in a silent cry of pleasure.

Do you picture people watching, their eyes roaming across your naked flesh as you pant for air? Or are you the one hidden in the shadows, watching someone else as they come undone?

You want it on your knees, his cock thrusting all the way into your wet, needy mouth. You want to be tied down, his mouth claiming you, his tongue licking deep against your tight, aching cunt.

You want pleasure. You want pain. You imagine it all, every time. A flash of images, your body rising to your touch. You play the scenes out, every detail, as that craving twists higher and your breath turns shallow and your skin aches for a release that’s close, closer…

Oh.

You felt it, didn’t you? But it wasn’t the touch that took you there, not just a simple, animal response. It was your imagination. Those secret, sensual fantasies, more private than anything you could say out loud.

More powerful than a hundred hard fucks.

Most other men don’t realize. They think sex is about friction and girth. They think surrender is a pair of handcuffs and a silk scarf. They don’t understand, a woman’s most powerful erogenous zone is her mind.

But I do.

I know your darkest desires. I see what you crave when he’s holding you at night.

I can show you a pleasure beyond reason, beyond your wildest fantasies.

All you have to do is accept my invitation.

Are you ready to play?
