Sugar Free by Sawyer Bennett

But you need to read the Sugar Daddy - Book 1 and Sugar Rush - Book 2 first!

Blurb

Sela Halstead lost her innocence in a way that no sixteen-year-old should ever have to endure. She’s spent years trying to forget that night even while wondering about the identities of the monsters who brutalized her—until a telltale tattoo flashes across Sela’s TV screen. The incriminating ink belongs to Jonathon Townsend, the millionaire founder of The Sugar Bowl, a website that matches rich older men with impressionable young women. Obsessed with revenge, Sela infiltrates Townsend’s world, only to come face-to-face with a tantalizing complication: Beckett North, his charismatic business partner.
 
The tech mastermind behind The Sugar Bowl, Beck always gets what he wants, in business and in bed. And yet, for a man who’s done every dirty thing imaginable, there’s something about the naïve, fresh-faced Sela that sparks his hottest fantasies. Because with her, it’s not just about sex. Beck opens up to her in ways he never has with other girls. So why does he get the feeling that she’s hiding something? In a world of pleasure and power, the shocking truth could turn them against each other—or bind them forever.

Obsession By Ann Mayburn

This is a STANDALONE dark(ish) erotic romance with insta-obsession between two damaged soulmates(no cheating-HEA-no cliffhanger) Hannah All my life, I've only wanted one thing: someone to love me and someone who will let me love them in return. This seems like a simple request, but I was born to parents who wished I had died of childhood leukemia, instead of my younger sister, and who have ignored me no matter how much I've tried to please them. I'm starved for affection, addicted to the feeling when someone cares about me, which has led to a love life filled with either boys I've scared off, or men all too eager to take advantage of me. I thought I would never find a man who could feed my craving for constant attention--and then I met Leo. He fills the void inside of me, haunts my dreams, and does things to me in bed that are so good, they're probably illegal. I can only pray I don't scare him off once he figures out just how needy I really am. Leo There are very few people in this world I've ever been able to form an emotional attachment to, but the moment I saw Hannah, I knew she was mine. We were bound together by fate, our paths crossing first as children, then as adults, each time marking me. She doesn't know it but I've been watching her for a year now, studying her, stacking the deck so when I do make my move, there's no way she'll ever escape me. But my world is a harsh, cruel place, and the cartel I work for demands absolute loyalty and trust...a loyalty Hannah has yet to earn in the dangerous eyes of my employers. There is only one way to ensure Hannah's absolute devotion, and I hope that she doesn't hate me forever when she finds out that not only have I brainwashed her into loving me, but that I don't feel an ounce of guilt about doing it. She's mine, only mine, and I'm keeping her forever. Warning: This story features a rough and demanding Dom who's completely devoted to bringing his baby girl pleasure through such unconventional means as spanking, mild BDSM, D/S, roleplaying, and various other forms of wicked kinkery.

With over forty published books, Ann is Queen of the Castle to her husband and three sons in the mountains of West Virginia. In her past lives she's been an Import Broker, a Communications Specialist, a US Navy Civilian Contractor, a Bartender/Waitress, and an actor at the Michigan Renaissance Festival. She also spent a summer touring with the Grateful Dead-though she will deny to her children that it ever happened. From a young Ann has had a love affair with books would read everything she could get her hands on. As Ann grew older, and her hormones kicked in, she discovered bodice ripping Fabio-esque romance novels. They were great at first, but she soon grew tired of the endless stories with a big wonderful emotional buildup to really short and crappy sex. Never a big fan of purple prose, throbbing spears of fleshy pleasure and wet honey pots make her giggle, she sought out books that gave the sex scenes in the story just as much detail and plot as everything else-without using cringe worthy euphemisms. This led her to the wonderful world of Erotic Romance, and she's never looked back. Now Ann spends her days trying to tune out cartoons playing in the background to get into her 'sexy space' and has accepted that her Muse has a severe case of ADD.

The summer I graduated from high school, I raced out of my small Virginian town to seek my culinary dreams in the big city. I couldn’t afford New York City, though, so I settled in Philadelphia. The City of Brotherly Love wasn’t The Big Apple, but it had its charms and pockets of culinary splendor. I hadn’t minded because it was only temporary. After culinary school, I planned to do as I’d been dying to do since I was a little girl and roam the earth and splurge on its fruits.

More than five years later, I was still in Philly, living with the same roommate I’d had when I had first moved, working as a pastry chef in a bakery across the bridge in New Jersey, and I had Cade. Caden was my on and off again boyfriend of four years. I loved him, even when I hated him.

Our relationship was hot and cold, hard and fast, sexy and heartbreaking. It wasn’t until I was with Caden that I understood that passion could be just as terrible as it was beautiful. I didn’t know until him that passion could make you burn as well as burn you. Being with Caden was like being addicted to thrill-seeking adventures. You know there is a danger in it, and it makes your heart race and adrenaline pump into your body. Sometimes you nail it and the rush is breathtaking and amazing. Sometimes you miss, and there is fear and regret in your heart as you fall to the unforgiving ground.

After one particularly hard fall, I went home to Virginia for a long weekend. That was where I became reacquainted with my brother’s old college friend Connor. That’s when I learned that passion could be a slow, sweet burn.

And it could incinerate me and turn me to ashes.

Review: Cara's Twelve

Cara's Twelve by Chantel Seabrook
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Cara is destined to be queen if she can survive! Lucky for her she has 12 champions who have sworn allegiance to her, but not all of those sworn to protect, have her best interest at heart. This is a medieval fantasy if you're expecting a romance forget it! I didn't find Cara a sympathetic character at all, while she rightfully expects fealty from her champions, she's pretty free with her own fidelity, bedding whomever she chooses and sometimes out of spite!

Cara flits mainly between Finn, the all-around good guy who is completely devoted to her and Tahdaon, the moody, angry warrior who reluctantly pledges to protect the very reign that has destroyed his family.

Admirably, Cara goes out of the way to aid and protect the men, who are sworn to protect her, but a few sharp words spoken in the aftermath of battle and she falls apart.

Beware! There are violence and blood galore, but the writing is very good. What takes this audiobook over the top, in my opinion, is the narration by Anne Flosnik, there are so many characters to keep straight in this epic story and you never lose track of who is speaking, all because of the subtle nuances in the tone that Anne employs.

Yes, I recommend this story, flawed characters and all, just don't expect to feel warm and fuzzy when it's all said and done!

Review: The Nightmare Pearl

The Nightmare Pearl by G. Lippert
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is one of those books that defies categorizing, it's part mystery, part ghost story but above all it's a love story. It's two stories told several years apart and intersects at the end.

Adolescent boy David befriends Becca a black girl living in an abandoned culvert in the early seventies, even though she's aloof they almost immediately form a close bond to one another.

Meanwhile in future Sheila an aspiring writer loses her literary agent husband in the collapse of the twin towers during the 2001 terrorist attacks, and she cannot accept the fact that her husband has perished.

How these two stories are told is done so beautifully and with such tenderness. You can't help but be touched by the conclusion.

The only weak part of this book is in the narration, Steve White does an awesome job and I could listen to him read any book! He's just that good. But the production quality of the portion read by Kimberly Meciti is poor and it jarring, especially after the smooth delivery by Steve. Kimberly is a decent narrator, it's just the production that's bad.

Overall though the book still rates 4 stars.

Review: The Vampire's Mail Order Bride

The Vampire's Mail Order Bride by Kristen Painter
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It's lighthearted fluff and I loved it. Delaney James inadvertently witnesses her boss murder a man in cold blood. Unfortunately for Delaney he finds out and our intrepid girl is marked for elimination too! What’s a girl to do? Pretend to be the mail order bride of a Hugh Ellingham in far away Nocturne Falls. While Delaney has her secrets her intended has his own, mainly that he is a 400 year old vampire.

This book has no language and no sex scenes and I totally didn’t miss it at all, quite a feat for this genre in this day and age.

B. J. Harrison is the narrator for the entire Nocturne Fall Series and he’s engaging and has the perfect voice for this type of book. I added him to my Narrators I Love List on twitter and if a reader is on that list he or she is in a rare club.

I plan on listening to the rest of the audiobooks in this series.

Review: Friction

Friction by Sawyer Bennett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This isn't the first book that I've listened to by Sawyer Bennett, it's not the first that I've enjoyed, but this book is in a league of its own!

Leary Michaels is a partner at a law firm that champions the little guy and she has no losses in her column. She's relentless and her new case seeking justice for her client in a botched operation is no different. Enter big wig corporate lawyer Reeve Holloway, the defense attorney for the douche bag surgeon. When they bump into each other outside the courthouse, it's a calculate move on Leary's part, and while she hands him her ripped silk stocking in the elevator, in the courtroom she promptly hands him his ass.

What Leary doesn't expect is the intense attraction between herself and Reeve. Soon they began a questionable but unstoppable relationship, trying desperately to keep their private and work relationship separate. It's hard to do when Leary, secretly has much more than a professional interest invested in the case!

This story is has it all humor, heat and heartbreak.

I listened to the audio version of this book and I loved the narration by Sebastian York but Kendall Taylor's narration just seemed a bit too girlish. So I had to deduct a star on the performance. I would have been happier if Sebastian had narrated the whole audiobook.

Don't hesitate to download this gem of a story, you'll be happy you did!

Plan Bea

Plan Bea

Written By: Hilary Grossman

Narrated By: Lisa Beacom

Plan to be amazed!

First off I rarely give a story a 10 rating and I don't take giving one lightly! But, this book is fantastic! What does it take to get a 10? A unique story line, one the evokes deep feelings both negative and positive and this book delivers on all counts! I was expecting a romance, a love story. What I got was so much more! It is a love story of sorts, but not between a woman and man, but rather between a daughter and mother.

Annabel's mother Beatrice is a real piece of work! She a narcissist, she's a cold and indifferent mother and grandmother. Spending only 15 minutes a week touching base with her daughter over the past several years.

Their relationship is so fractured that Annabel even addresses her mother by her given name! I’ve met people like this in real life and from what I’ve witnessed, it all points to the child feeling a disconnect from the parent and in the case of this book it’s no different.

Quite unexpectedly Bea announces that she's getting married and she wants her daughter to help her plan the ultimate wedding! Somewhat reluctantly Annabel agrees to help.

This starts Annabel on a path of discovery, sometimes painfully, learning things about herself and her mother which completely upturn everything she thought she knew about their turbulent past. It’s an awakening of sorts, she learns things along the way that give her a new point of view on practically everyone in her life, her husband, her so called former best friend and her mother.

It’s a story that’s full of emotion, heartbreak and love and the twist at the end caught me completely off guard! I was asking myself what the hell is going on!

This book is well written and the narration by Lisa Beacom was perfection!  and I highly recommend this audiobook. What a very pleasant surprise!

Plan Bea appears to be one of Hilary’s first novel written, If so I'm thoroughly impressed and I can’t wait to see what’s in store from her next!

TETHERED By LD Davis

TETHERED

By LD Davis

Narrated By Kate Udall

L.D. Davis hits it out the park with this companion book to the Accidentally On Purpose Series, you don’t necessarily need to read AOP to listen to this story, but I think you would get more perspective if you do.

The two main characters in this novel are Donya Stewart and Emmet Grayne, If you’ve haven’t read AOP Emmett is the brother of Emmy the main character in the AOP trilogy, and Donya is her best friend since childhood. If you have read AOP you’ll recall that Donya’s the one that wanted to go kick Kyle’s ass when she discovers that he abused Emmy! That’s Donya in a nutshell, she says what she means and means what she says, sometimes to her own detriment!

This audio-book is over 18 hours of pure enjoyment, it starts off when Donya is a mere child of five and Emmy befriends Donya at school, Donya and Emmy are polar opposites, Donya is poor, black, and an only child of indifferent parents, Emmy is middle class, white and comes from a large loving family.  

Oh, side note!

for a

This book is the correct way to write an multicultural romance! Race is noted as a natural part of the story but by no means drives the story, after all, the differences between race are mainly cultural. Noting something done within a culture is expected, rather than concentrating on the differences of skin color or race.

Donya’s home life is a misery, her mother suffers from depression and does the barest minimum to provide for Donya, her father is an in-consistence presence and always “working”.

Emmy’s family takes Donya under their wings and fully embrace her as part of their family, when Donya meets Emmy’s older brother Emmet there is an instant connection between the two, even at 5 years old! Donya is an old soul and wise beyond her years. Emmet feels this connection too, and as they grow up, he is the protector of both Emmy and Donya, the bond between them only grows stronger with time and tethers them together through thick and thin.

Emmet’s family looks upon Donya as another daughter or sister, but as adolescence comes into play, things change between Donya and Emmet, because of their age difference, Emmet hasn’t just been sitting on the sidelines waiting for Donya, he does what any red blooded American boy does, he dates and eventually has a serious girlfriend, Shelley. In the course of time Emmet breaks off his relationship with Shelley, and as Donya grows older they succumb to the attraction that’s always been there, but they do so in secret knowing that the family would be shocked that Emmet is dating his “sister”.

In the meantime Donya’s becoming quite a beauty and people are starting to take notice. Emmet’s parents see potential in Donya and offer to finance her bid to become a model, at first she is reluctant, but when they tell her that they've spoken with her mother and have her blessing, she grateful accepts their help.

Of course just as soon as things start heating up for our lovebirds, Emmet is heading off to college, these star crossed lover vow to not let distance separate them. One week before Emmet leaves for college, they attend a party and Emmet’s ex- girlfriend, Shelley, confides in Donya that she’s hopeful that while away at college they can rekindle their relationship and then delivers some devastating news about their past, Donya’s too young to handle the situation maturely and volatile way she confronts Emmet leads their bond to fracture in a serious way, Donya is sorry but unable to face Emmet and he leaves for college without saying goodbye and as Donya’s rising modeling career starts to takes control, they slip from each others life.

And so begins the near misses and lost chances that litter this book! This story is told over several years and the tether between these two that stretches to the breaking point but alway snaps back, even through a subsequent loveless marriage by Emmet and Donya’s marriage to a man who adamant about not having children. As Donya and Emmet struggle to find a way back to one another, heartache, bitter regrets and shattered dreams are in store for everyone concerned.

On the Elsie Meter Rating Scale Of 1 to 10,  I give Tethered an 8. The superb writing we are use to with LD Davis and a great job narrating by Kate Udall.
