Vince Morelli.

The closest I ever wanted to get to him was several rows away in English class. We’d never spoken, but of course I heard the stories about his family. I know they’re dangerous. I know he’s dangerous. Vince never had a reason to notice me, anyway—until I inadvertently witnessed his first mob hit.

His family doesn’t believe in leaving witnesses alive, but Vince seems different. He knows the best thing he can do for me is stay away, but something keeps drawing us together. Despite knowing the risks of getting mixed up with him, I can’t resist. Only problem is, Vince is a package deal—you don’t get him without getting swept up in his family’s dark games.

Now entangled with a notorious Chicago crime family, will my life ever be mine again?

**Obligatory trigger warning: While not wholly dark, this is a mafia romance with elements of DARK ROMANCE. There are no knights in shining armor to be found here.
Sensitive content not recommended for those under 18, or those who loathe the dark romance genre. **

Everything in moderation. Including virtue.

I step off the plane in Madrid and meet his warm eyes. His crooked smile. His devastating charm.
Worse, he’s courteous. Honorable. Sensuous. Impossibly attractive.

Tavo awakens my desires—my body—without even touching it.
I don’t want to be attracted to him. I’ve made my promises.
My future has already been determined. I’m wearing a ring.

But I can’t control this pull to him.
He wants to explore my shadows.
I want to get out of the light.

I shouldn’t feel this way…
Problem is, I can’t restrain my heart.

ARC Review of “One Night” by Summer Cooper – A story in “Find Me A Valentine” A box set

/ The Sassy Redhead Book Reviews / Leave a comment

A story about a young woman who agrees to help out a friend so that she can make some extra money. She meets a young man who takes her breath away. They are from different worlds and neither one is looking for anything permanent, but fate has other ideas. A professional hockey player, son of a senator, and cocky, Aaron, who is on suspension from his hockey team agrees to go to a Valentine charity dinner in his father's place. He meets Jenn, who is a woman who works in fashion, and has agreed to help out her friend Becca, by serving drinks and wearing a dress that is to be auctioned off as a fund raiser. The dress she is to wear is not her taste, and she feels very out of place. They have an instant reaction to each other and want to find out how things will end up between them.
This was a good story, it was a short, quick read. The chemistry between Aaron and Jenn is quick and hot. The characters are likable and fun to read about. They each show their vulnerabilities at times and it makes them more natural.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Title: Mr. Wicked
Author: Maya Hughes
Genre: Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 8, 2018

 

Blurb

 

She’s hated me since high school…
Francesca “Frankie” Archer is the smart mouthed rich girl who worked her way into my heart back in high school. Our one date turned into a nightmare and we’ve been at each other’s throat since. Now, she’s a sex club owning hottie who still looks better in shorts and a tshirt than any woman should. 
We need to be civil to each other as co-best men standing up for our best friend at his wedding. How hard can that be? But old feelings, a few cocktails and shared hotel suite later and I’m touching her in ways no other man has. 
In the light of day, she’s ready to chalk it up to a drunken one night stand, but I’m not ready to end things just as they are beginning again. Maybe I can convince her, if I can show her everything I’ve learned since we’ve been apart. I know she’ll look amazing with the soft ropes crisscrossed across her body. 
Mr. Wicked is a 55,000 word second chance, accidental pregnancy romance. It features a sassy sex club owner, sweet and sexy bondage enthusiast and a heaping
helping of steamy nights.

Author Bio
Maya Hughes has always loved romance novels. One look at her Kindle is confirmation. She started writing her first romance novel while pregnant with her third child and she hasn’t looked back. Now, her romance writing addiction has replaced her romance reading addiction.
 

You can find her writing on her foldable keyboard and phone anytime inspiration strikes. Her sweet and steamy stories range from rockstars to small towns and everything in between. When she’s not writing, she’s playing with her three kids, running errands or vegging on the couch with the love of her life and biggest fan, her husband.

MY REVIEW:

Wow, quite the story. Talk about angst. I was so angry with Frankie and John in the beginning of this story. A great second chance story, but wow, why did they have to go through so much to get there?

Francesca, Frankie, is a young girl who has been bullied by the popular girls at school since grade school. She decided that she would never be good enough for them, so she started being who she wanted to be. A nerd. She is into video games, and anime. She comes from a wealthy family, but that doesn’t change who she is. She is a down to earth regular girl who hangs out with Killian Thorne, a scholarship boy at her school and his friend John Grimsby.

John Grimsby, a boy who comes from a different world that Frankie, but he can’t help that he has feelings for her and wants to go out with her. He is a star on the football team at the swanky school they attend and the only reason he is there is due to a scholarship. His mom left him and his dad years ago and his dad is pretty much just a drunk.

John finally gets the nerve up to ask Frankie to the Ancients dance and she agrees. She’s not a dressy kind of girl, but when John goes to pick her up for the dance he can’t help but be thrilled that she is his date, she looks beautiful. Frankie is happy that John asked her out, but she is also a little worried. This is kind of like what happened to her in grade school when she decided to only keep her own company. The mean girls and boys of their school strike again and there is a huge misunderstanding between John and Frankie and they go ten years with bickering and trying to avoid each other. That is until their best friend Killian is getting married and they are the best-man and best- woman standing up for him.

This was a great story and I really enjoyed it. However, like I said I did get very angry with John and Frankie after their misunderstanding. They are both so stubborn, but it all worked out wonderfully in the end. I just purchased Mr. Ruin so that I can read Killian’s story as well. I give this story a 4.5 star review and look forward to more stories in the near future with this group that went to school together.

No, I don’t watch much TV. I only watch one night a week.

Hmmm, this is a good question. I would probably have to say Derek Alexander, of One to Hold, by Tia Louise.

4. Who is your favorite author?

Hmmm, there are so many. I guess if I were going to choose the one author that I will one-click a book from it would be Sue Coletta.

5. What’s your favorite TV show and why?

Synopsis

“Sometimes, I feel like I’m watching a movie . . . that it’s not really me, Claire Richards, getting this second chance at life.”

“Open your eyes, it’s you, and I’m damn glad it’s with me.” ~ Aiken

Single mom and college professor Claire Richards only wanted a few hours of me time to soak in her tub, read a book, and drink wine.

But tragedy struck, and Claire found herself with a lot more me time than she bargained for.

Three years later, Claire is still mourning her losses when Aiken Fordham—who looks young enough to be one of her college students—moves in next door.

Forcing Claire to face her fears, Aiken almost forgets his reason for moving to Small Town, Pennsylvania. Falling for the sexy, smart, and strong professor next door was never in the plan.

But now it is . . . until their future intersects with their pasts.

Anarchy

by Carmel Rhodes
Publication Date: February 2, 2018
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

Purchase: Amazon US | Amazon UK | Amazon AU

I fucked a patient in my charge at the facility where I worked.

Ask me if I cared.

Ask me if I felt guilty or wrong.

Ask me if I had one single regret.

Then, ask me if I enjoyed it.

Ask me if I liked the way she felt wrapped around my dick.

Ask me if I came inside her.

Ask me if I would do it again.

Ask those questions and the answer would be a loud and violent yes.

Why? Because, I was chaos, she was violence, and together we made Anarchy.

About Carmel Rhodes

Writer of words. Mother of Joy. Wife of Compassion. I like to write stories about real people who go through real struggles, and come out the other side stronger. I also like to write smut. Welcome to my brain. It’s a little screwed up, but always well intended.

KU Subscriber? You can read Carly’s Crush for #FREE!

Being stuck in the friend zone sucks. Even worse, the man of your dreams seeing you as nothing more than a kid. But what’s a shy girl to do when her secret crush for months won’t take the hint? Seduce him, of course!

Carly puts her plan into motion. One night, after closing the lingerie shop where she works, she slips into the sheerest scrap of nothing she can find, climbs on a table in the middle of the sales floor, and strikes a pose.  Now, she waits for Trent, the head of mall security, to make his rounds and find her. Simple enough, right?

Except things go terribly wrong. Silent alarms are tripped, and Carly is left with one furious Alpha on her hands. Will she end up in the arms of the man of her dreams, or will her bottom, left bare by the skimpy black thong, end up paying for her unintended crime? Or, if she’s lucky, will she get both?

Publisher’s note: Carly’s Crush is a steamy romantic novella which contains spanking and light BDSM themes. If this doesn’t do it for you, maybe you shouldn’t buy this book. But just for kicks, put some spice in your life this Valentine’s Day, and give it a try.

F*CK CLUB: SHAME

3rd in a series, written to stand alone

Shame

Max “Shame”’ Schaeffer knows only one way—the hard way. He lives hard, drinks hard, fights hard…and if comes to it, he figures he’ll die hard, too. The only soft thing in his life is Charli Steele, the younger sister of his two best friends. He knows she thinks she’s in love with him, but with his tarnished and messed-up past, he doesn’t see anything in him worthy of love.

Dr. Charli Steele knows more about Shame than he realizes, and she has loved him since they were kids—scars and all. He loves her, too. She is sure he does. But Shame will never give in to it. Until one brief, stolen night leads to another…and another. Then Shame decides to throw it all away. Heartbroken, she retreats, intent on trying to heal from this latest rejection. But a phone call in the middle of the night changes everything.

Shame is hurt, and he needs her.

It turns out he needs her a lot more than he realizes. But will he let her in…before it’s too late?

USA Today bestselling author Nana Malone‘s love of all things romance and adventure started with a tattered romantic suspense novel she “borrowed” from her cousin.

It was a sultry summer afternoon in Ghana, and Nana was a precocious thirteen. She’s been in love with kick-butt heroines ever since. With her overactive imagination constantly channeling her inner Buffy, it was only a matter a time before she started creating her own characters.

While she waits for her chance at a job as a ninja assassin, Nana works out her drama, passion and sass with fictional characters every bit as brazen and kick-butt as she thinks she is.
