Then agqin Will isn't either, "he yanks his jeans up, buttons the fly—painfully, it looks like— around his erection. “Your place. Now.” I liked this book, I loved Will.

Zach is just not bashful, "...He ran a frustrated hand through his hair. He stood before me all pissed off and gloriously naked. He was gorgeous." In his own way Zach is romantic, “every woman needs to be seduced.” I shifted her again until she was facing the city around us. “Even when she is being effed, she needs to know her needs come first.” I liked this book, I loved Zach the man was just *** on a stick.

Shortcake by Lucy Watson
Ben thinks highly of himself, “you done checking me out, so I can get dressed.” Ben really should be thankful his woman isn't a money grabber, “why do you have to be so difficult? I said take the card.” I motion sharply for him to take it. “I’m already late. Come on, Ben. Just take it.” Ben’s nostrils flare and his jaw ticks, but to my relief, he snatches the card from my hand." Ben can totally compromise, “you can call the shots next time, babe.

Viktor
My parents told me I skated before I walked. When I was eighteen I was drafted into the N.H.L third overall, playing in Los Angeles—the city of dreams. What more could I ask for? I played hard, but eventually, I partied even harder. Five years later I was traded a week after I entered rehab. There was no time for anything except my health and making sure I’d come out on top. I had to be better. There wasn’t another option.

REVIEW:
Zoe does not shy away from food, “a burger,” she answers. “A greasy burger. A burger so greasy it’s running down your arms.” Yea, Viktor knows the affect he has on his woman, “I can make a coffee, and you can go put on a shirt,” she says, and I secretly smile..." Zoe is just always eager for more of her man, “that was good. Let’s do it again,” she says and leans up, kissing my neck. “I mean, you’re still in me." I l loved this book, I loved Viktor.
When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers
flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals.
You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or
possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her
characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...

Axel by Samantha Whiskey
REVIEW:
Langley has quite the affect on her man, “ohmygawdthesearegood,”she moaned after her first bite. And now my pants were too tight..." Axel sometimes just talks to his passed out woman, “is that better, baby?” I asked. No response. “Baby?” I repeated. She snored. “And that,” I said, climbing off the bed to get one of my T-shirts, “is why I didn’t eff you tonight,” I told my passed out wife." Axel isnt exactly a rule follower, “pancakes were a ploy! You devious Viking!” I clucked my tongue at him. “We cook in this room. We eat in this room. We do not eff in this room.” Another growl..." I liked this book, I fell in love with Axel.

I’ve spent years hiding in the shadows.
He’s spent his whole life chasing the bright lights of the NBA.
We have nothing in common, except for the fact our friends ditched us for spring break.
I have a bucket list for my senior year at Valley U.
He’s the only person I know on campus.
I’m ready to start checking things off my list.
Frat party: Check.
TP the baseball house: Check.
Goat yoga: Check.
Skinny dipping: Check.
Falling for Zeke Sweets, Valley U’s MVP: Not going to happen.
Goodreads: http://bit.ly/TheTip-Off
Gabby has so much self control when faced with temptation, “that’s all anyone seems to be telling me this week.” He lifts his shirt to wipe his face and I don’t even pretend not to notice the way his abs are cut and practically goading me to reach out and trace the lines where individual muscles separate..." The girl has no filter at times, “your p****? Because if you’re not about to get naked, I’m going to be sorely disappointed.” I loved this book, I fell in love with Gabby and Zeke.
I can’t make out her form until I’m halfway down to the water. She sits on the dock, feet dangling above the water. She’s so fucking beautiful and innocent and I want to ruin her and worship her all at the same time. I’m not going to do either of those things, though. I’m going to stick to the path. The path doesn’t include dating. The path doesn’t even include fun most days and Gabby deserves days that are all about fun.
She turns her head as I get closer and there’s that big Gabby smile pointed right at me. “Hey.”
“Hey, yourself. Whatcha doing down here all alone?”
“I thought we could cross skinny dipping off both our lists.”
My brows raise. “What about your tattoo?”
She shrugs. “It’s been a week. I’m willing to risk a quick dip if you are.”
I rub a hand over my chin. I’m not ashamed of my body, but I’d also prefer not to have my black ass photographed if one of my teammates happen to stumble upon us. Last year one of the sophomores got drunk at a party and passed out naked in the bathroom. I have no idea why he was naked in there, but the photos of his hairy ass were everywhere. My ass is baby smooth and awesome, but I still don’t want it on display.
“Well, come on before someone sees us.” She’s unbuttoning her shorts and pushing them down while I stand there gawking. The sight of her bare legs puts me in motion. Just not a part of me I want in motion right now. I turn around, give my dick a little pep talk that includes promises I won’t be a celibate asshole forever, and then undress to my boxers.
“You decent?” I ask over my shoulder.
“No. Oh my God, don’t look.” She laughs, I hear her footsteps on the dock and then a splash. A few seconds later, she calls, “Your turn.”
I push my boxers down and then hold my hands over my junk, semi-erect still because promises be damned, and take two large steps before jumping in beside her. Her happy squeals direct my entry into the lake as I clear the water from my eyes. We’re treading water buck naked not two feet from one another. It’s a little trippy. I haven’t spent time with a girl naked like this in… well forever. If I’m naked and this close to a girl, it’s for one purpose and though I’m a gentleman, of course, it’s not about anything but carnal desires being met. Thrusts and grunts and release.
I don’t think it would be like that with Gabby. No, I know it wouldn’t be like that, which is another reason it can’t happen.
“So now what?” she asks, suddenly looking a little nervous.
“Far as I know, this is all there is to it. How do you feel?”
“Naked.” She laughs. “But also like a rebel.”
She splashes water at me playfully and I do it right back.
“Think anyone can see us?”
I shrug. “Maybe. Do you want them to see you?”
“God, no,” she says too fast. The excitement in her eyes is a dead giveaway. I think Gabby likes the thrill, the possibility of being caught, and God help me because I want nothing more than to keep her safe while she explores every sordid fantasy.

Pretty sure Gray can't say no to his woman, “one hour, Ember,” he says. “One damn hour, and then we go right back to work.” Gray can only handle so much teasing, “actually, it’s worse,” I say, pushing myself up, leaning to whisper in his ear with my best teasing tone. “I’m not wearing anything under this at all.” His gaze sharpens..." I liked this book, I loved Gray.

And heels.” Cash doesn't like when his plans are a tad bit altered, "Cash raised his brows. “more important than dinner and ***?” I loved this book, I loved Cash.

Sutton can compromise to make his girl happy, "the desire in her voice is hard to deny. “All right.” Yasmine’s brown stare soars back upward. “We can host a game night.” She squeals in glee. “But I get to pick the games.” I liked this book, it wasn't one of my favorites by this author but it also wasn't bad. I liked the characters enough, but I just had trouble connecting with them.

REVIEW:
Betty is just a sassy thing, “if I shoot you it will not be an accident.” Once the man reveals his real personality he's not bashful, "Thom is standing in the aisle pulling on a pair of dark boxer briefs. His arms flexing and junk hanging free." Thom sure has his priorities in order, “yeah. But what if we died without having makeup ***? That’d be a tragedy.” I found this book, to be extremely entertaining and I loved Thom.

That’d be a tragedy.” I found this book, to be extremely entertaining and I loved Thom.
Excerpt:
“You’re going to break his heart.” “No, I’m not,” I say. “That’s sort of the whole point. If I really thought leaving him would break his heart, then I probably wouldn’t be leaving him in the first place.” My best friend, Jen, does not look convinced. Boxes fill a good half of the room. What a mess. Who knew you could accumulate so much junk in only twelve months? At least we weren’t together so long that I can’t remember who owns what. One year is about the sweet spot for this issue in relationships, apparently. “The fact of the matter is, we’re not in love. We have no business being engaged, let alone getting married.” I sigh. “Have you seen the packing tape?” “No. He’s just such a nice guy.” “I’m not debating that.” I climb to my feet, then head up the stairs to the second bedroom. Thom’s unofficial workout room/home office. Not a room I normally go into. But it only takes a bit of rummaging to find what I’m looking for. Whatever else might be said about them, insurance assessors are organized. The bottom drawer of Thom’s desk has a neat stash of stationery. I grab a couple rolls of thick tape. “And leaving him this way…” Jen continues as I head back down. “How many times have I told him we need to talk? He’s always putting it off, saying it’s not a good time. And now he’s away again. I’ve been messaging him for the last week and he barely replies.” “You know he has to drop everything once a job comes up. I realize he’s not the most exciting guy, Betty, but—” “I know.” I smack down a line of tape with extra zest, sealing the lid of the last box. In this Operation Abandon Ship Posthaste, I know I’m definitely slightly the bad guy. But not totally. Say sixty/forty. Or maybe seventy/thirty. It’s hard to tell to what degree. “I do know all of that. But he’s always busy with work or away on some business trip. What am I supposed to do?” A sigh from Jen. “When you realize you’ve made such a monumental mistake, it’s hard to sit and wait to fix things. Nor is it fair on either of us to keep up the pretense.” “Guess so.” “And the fact that he’s yet again made no effort to prioritize our relationship and make a little time for me in his busy schedule is just further proof that I’ve made the right choice in ending this now before it gets any more complicated. End of rant.” Nothing from her. “Anyway, you’re supposed to be on my side. Stop questioning me.” “You wanted to get married and have children so badly.” “Yeah.” I sit back on my heels. “I blame it all on playing with Ken and Barbie’s dreamhouse when I was little. But it turns out that being in a relationship with the wrong person can be even lonelier than being alone.” Jen and I have been friends since sharing a room in college. We’ve witnessed the bulk of each other’s dating ups and downs. For some reason, I’m the type of girl who guys will go out with, but don’t tend to stick with. Apparently, I’m fuckable—just not girlfriend material. Maybe it’s my smart mouth. Maybe it’s the whole not fitting current societal expectations of beauty i.e. I’m fat. Maybe I was born under an unlucky star. I don’t know; it’s their loss. Like anyone, I have my faults, but all in all, I’m awesome. And I have a lot to give. Too often in the past few months, I’ve had to keep reminding myself of this fact. “There are just so many jerks out there,” Jen says. “I was happy that you’d found a good one.” “I think I’d prefer a jerk who was genuinely into me than a nice guy phoning it in. Honestly, I’d rather go adopt a dozen cats and settle into old age and isolation than be with someone who treats me as if I’m an afterthought.” She looks at me for a long moment, then nods slowly. “I’m sorry it didn’t work out.” “Me too.” “Time to start filling up the cars. Boy, do you owe me.” I smile. “That I do.” Jen stands and stretches before picking up one of the boxes labeled kitchen. “I just didn’t want you to do something you’d regret, you know?” “I know. Thank you.” Alone in the two-bedroom condo, everything is silent. My parting letter sits waiting on the coffee table with his name written on the front. A slight bulge in the envelope betrays the shape of my engagement ring. It’s a sweet, simple ring. One small diamond perched on a band of yellow gold. My hand feels wrong without it. Naked. They say there are different love languages and you have to take the time to learn your partner’s needs. It’s like he and I never quite got there. Or maybe I’m just crappy at relationships. The bridal magazines I’d collected are in the trash. Perhaps I should have taken them into the florist shop where I work so someone could get some use out of them. But this feels more symbolic, more definite. My family are a couple of states away, and I have only a few of what I’d classify as good friends. Being an introvert makes it hard to meet people. A boyfriend, a husband, would mean I’m no longer alone. Someone cares about me and puts me first. At least part of the time. Only Thom doesn’t any of the time, so here we are. I tighten my ponytail of long dark hair. Then, in a rare display of dexterity that my yoga instructor would be proud of, I stack three boxes in my arms and head outside into the hot afternoon sun. Jen’s Honda Civic is parked at the curb, the trunk standing open as she moves things about inside. My old Subaru sits in the driveway waiting to be filled. Birds are singing and insects chirping. It’s your typical mild autumn day in California. That’s when the condo blows up behind me.

Blurb:
From the shadows, I’ve tracked her every move.
I was just supposed to watch her. But now, I can’t stop.
She’s my obsession. My addiction. My poison.
Watching her isn’t enough.
The savage in me won’t be satisfied until I take her and make her mine.
One taste and I’m hooked. Too bad for her… I’m never letting her go.
**
Stalked. Hunted. Captured.
He took me from my life and locked me away in his compound.
The ex-con. The big bad biker. Inked, bearded, and inhumanely sized.
And yet, every time he looks at me, I melt.
This broken beast hides demons behind those brutal eyes. I hate him… and I crave him. His touch, his words, his lips.
When my enemies come for me, he vows to protect me as long as I do what he says. I’ll be secure in this prison he created for me.
But who will protect me from him?
Ace can be domesticated, “watch some television and don’t try anything stupid. I’m making dinner.” I liked this book, I really liked Ace.
Excerpt:
He dragged his nose through my hair, breathing me in. And then he pressed his lips against the shell of my ear, repeating the process all over again as he kissed his way down my jaw. When he finally got to my lips, I was hungry and wet for him. Dinner was scattered on the floor around us, long forgotten as his fingers grazed the hem of the silk robe against my thigh. He pulled it aside, then repeated the action on the other leg.
Leaning back, he studied my face before his eyes drifted to the part of me he’d exposed. I was open for him. Vulnerable to him. He could see everything, and I didn’t try to hide it. This was the broken, filthy part of me he needed to see. It was now or never. He could take it or leave it.
His attention drifted up while he tugged at the loose fabric covering my breasts. When he was finished, all that remained was the rope around my waist and the fabric pooling at my sides. I held my breath as I waited to see what he would do next. After everything that had just happened, more than anything, I wanted him to want me, and yet I was terrified he couldn’t. It didn’t make sense, but it was undeniable. He’d seen me at my worst, and I wanted him to tell me it was okay. It didn’t matter how fucked up I was, he wanted me anyway.
Just like with everything else, Huck did it in his own way. He reached for the zipper on his jeans, slowly dragging it down while his eyes locked onto mine. They were filled with dark promises and threats that reflected in his voice.
“Tell me to stop, Birdie. If you don’t, I’ll never let you go.”
“Don’t stop.” I forced the words from my raw throat. “Don’t you fucking dare."
