The Madness of Lord Ian MacKenzie by Jennifer Ashley My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4 stars for this excelent book recommended by my GR friend Malinda!.I'm not very fond of historical books, but this is indeed a jewel in the genre.There's romance, suspense, a fun and stubborn h, a strong maddening H who is really just different and a bunch of characters that are just the necessary for this to be an I LOVE IT read.

Debt Inheritance by Pepper Winters My rating: 5 of 5 stars 5 dark stars!!!This one was recommendation of Sivy, she said “hope you like dark romances” and truly I'm not so much into them, I mean, I have a lot of those on my to read list, but it takes more time for me to finally decide to actually read it. So I read the blurb, saw the cover and completely imagine how this dark hero would be, so I jumped to read it and have to say, excellent recommendation Sivy, Thanks!Nila Weaver is a fashion designer, sheltered all her life by her father and her brother, she’s shy and inexperienced in the men department, so when her father practically pushes her into the arms of the hot stranger who she assumes is an admirer of her work, she accepts the invitation immediately… little she knows that the stranger has a hidden agenda and his father knew it… “I hated being lied to.I hated even more believing those lies until the truth decided to come for me. Turned out, I was never an individual; I was a possession to trade.I was never unique; someone had lived my life many times before, never free, never whole. My life was never mine.My destiny was already written.My story began the night he came for me.” So the stranger?... yes, he is Jethro Hawk, a sexy man with a dark edge… “I was a hunter. Skilled with both bow and arrow and gun. I stalked the weaker and slit their throats when they succumbed to my careful aim.But sometimes I liked to... miss. I liked to give them a small window of safety, all while closing the noose when they didn't expect it.I liked to play with my food.” And well, as the title mentions, he inherited Nila, to do with her as he pleases, and he does, he likes toying with her, he wants to destroy her, break her, and he really enjoys it. “Destroying my dress wasn’t enough? You had to steal my past too?” I held up a photograph of a half-naked Jethro holding my chin as he kissed me. That wasn’t based on my dateless life, but it was so lifelike, so true, so incontestable. How did they make it so realistic?Jethro shook his head, rolling his eyes. Locking his bike, he pocketed the keys before turning to face me. Dropping to his hunches in front, he whispered, “I not only stole your past. I’ve already stolen your future.” Like I said, I’m not so into dark romances, but I started with this one and couldn’t put it down, the situations Nila was subject to where hard to read at some point but I kept reading to see how the things evolved…The writing is so good, I like books told by dual POV because you get to undertsand the characters better, the only thing is there was not so much explanation about the reason of the debt, only that was something agreed byt the ancestors of both families, but I suppose we'll read it in the next book. It ends with a cliffhanger, but it didn’t left me with the feeling of being annoyed and desperate to read the next one, I mean I definitely want to read the next book, but I’ll wait patiently for it! :D View all my reviews

Her Forbidden Hero by Laura Kaye My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4 broken hero stars This is a sweet love story of two persons who are meant to be together, but need to learn how to fight their demons and insecurities, to trust in each other, in order to be together.We have Marco Vieri, a war hero who has so many demons and feels so broken that he doesn't believe he deserves happiness, so when Alyssa Scott returns home after college and he start to have feelings for his best friend sister, a girl he used to protect from her drunk father, he feels the need to protect her even from himself. All at once, he saw her through new eyes. And what he saw very particularly wasn’t a little girl. Not anymore. She might’ve been small in stature, but between the long chocolate waves of her hair, the way her V-neck shirt shaped over her breasts, and how those damn jeans hugged her, there was no safe place to look and not think woman. And it was a short trip from that thought to wondering how she would feel under his hands, in his arms. He was a man, after all. A man who had been without the pleasure of a woman these long months while he fought tooth and nail to get back to a shadow of his old self. But the beautiful girl, er, woman standing before him wasn't just any woman. She was his best friend’s little sister. Strictly off-limits. That was guy code 101. Alyssa has been in love with Marco since she can remember, and she tries very hard to show him she’s not longer the little girl who needed protection, she’s a grown woman and is determined to get him to see her with different eyes, but she doesn’t know everything Marco lived in the war, so she doesn’t understand his situation and he’s determined to not ask for help or let her or anybody see how broken he is. Alyssa nuzzled into his back and pressed a kiss against his shoulder. He sucked in a breath, his erection punching against the fly of his jeans again. But it wouldn’t just be sex. Not with her. The ache in his chest and the constriction in his throat, that was about the part of him that wanted to comfort her and be comforted in return, that wanted companionship and a place to belong. It would be about lo— He shook his head, clamping down on the tail end of that thought. Without question, Alyssa would give him everything he wanted and more, but what he wanted was just a bunch of fantasy bullshit for someone like him. It killed him to do so, but he twisted free of her arms and forced himself to face her. Frustration and regret weighed on his shoulders like an anvil. “This”—he waved his finger back and forth between them and swallowed down a river of sadness—“this right here. This can’t happen." Both have problems, different kind of problems, but they’re both stubborn and try to solve their problems without asking for help. What they can deny is the growing attraction between them, Aly knows is not a teenager crush anymore and Marco knows the feeling he has for Aly is not a case of having the hots for his best friend sister, so they have some moments of weakness. Alyssa inhaled and tilted her head to the side, inviting his exploration. He couldn't resist. He licked and kissed up her neck until he reached the soft indentation beneath her ear. He sucked at her there until she was panting in his arms Beautiful story, a lot of heartbreak in the story, but with a sweet ending. It’s written in dual POV, so we get to be in Marco’s head and understand better his problems. Totally recommend it. View all my reviews

Under Locke by Mariana Zapata My rating: 5 of 5 stars 5 frigging stars!!! "I can't ignore this shit between us anymore, and I'm not gonna. Not when it makes so much sense" Iris is a nice, quiet person, she didn't had a normal childhood. After his dad, a former member of the Widowmakers MC left her family, she and her mom got sick. After her mom died, Iris had to take care her little brother Will. After losing her job and being nearly bankrupt, Iris moves to Austin, TX to live with her half brother Sonny, who is part of the Widowers MC. Sonny gets Iris a job at Pins and Needles, a tattoo parlor, not really her dream job, but she is really trying to see the bright side. The only thing Iris didn't consider was Dexter Locke, her rude new boss with a very short temper, member of the Widowmakers MC and hot and sexy as hell.... "His broad shoulders and thickly veined forearms were more than enough to make a girl stare. Because his face... Jesus, shit. Jesus. Shit.I was going to ask Santa for his good identical twin for Christmas" Iris hear him talking bad of her on the phone, so Iris decides she's going to do her work and give him the cold shoulder treatment (her calling him "The Dick" in her head was funny). Things get dangerous for Iris because of some stuff her father did so she ends up stuck with Dex as protector while things cool down. Their relationship evolves and she see a different side of Dex.... Dex's fingers extended to where the palm covered all of the back of my neck and his fingers wrapped around most of my throat. "My ma used to tell me you have to fight through some shitty ass days to get to the best days of your life. So I’m tellin’ you now, that you gotta hang in there. I swear to you, after this shit is over, you’re not gonna have to worry about him ever again.” His thumb dug deep into my flesh.I made a noise that sounded like I was dying. “Oh Dex.” “Babe, you’re the sweetest little girl I’ve ever met. You deserve better than this broken heart bullshit.” His fingers kneaded the muscles on my neck. “If I ever see that beautiful face cryin againover somethin’ that worthless sack of shit did, I’m gonna make your daddy regret ever meetin’ your ma, you got it?” Of course, things gets more serious between them and you can imagine the combination of short tempered and jelous Dex... “Baby, there’s nothing wrong with my judgment. I know exactly what I’m doin’, and I know damn well that if I ever see you smile at somebody like you did at Trey today, I’ll kill the poor bastard.” “Dex!”“I’m not jokin’. I don’t ever wanna see that shit ever again so unless you want me goin’ to jail for murderin’ somebody, quit it,” he stated, not blinking, not breathing, totally focused." A lot of sexy as hell scenes in there too!... "He bit down again before nuzzling the line of my jaw. "You're mine." His lower body pressed into my stomach. Hard, he was so hard. "Your mouth, your face, your ass, your pussy, Ritz. You're all mine." All the book is written in Iris POV, it's fun to be in her head, sometimes sad when she remember her life as a teen, but her silly "that's what she said" jokes were fun... Seriously this book had me since the first word. It's a long book, very detailed, but not in a boring way.So, in this book we have a hot biker with a short temper and super possessive of his lady, a super fun and likable heroine who likes to give a piece of her mind to a super hot alpha... what's not to LOVE!Unfortunately there's no news for a second book of this author, I was really hoping to read Sonny's or Trip's story!

I'll bend you over, and fuck you right here against the wall until you're screaming out of your goddamn mind. The neighbors will call the cops, you're so loud" he continues, holding my gaze, rubbing me faster. "But you won't care, will you? Because it feels so good.

The Seduction 1 by Roxy Sloane My rating: 5 of 5 stars 5 mind blowing stars!What caught my attention of this book?, first, it was a freebie, then I was attracted to the cover (who doesn't like a sexy cover, right?), then I went and read the blurb and I was game!. A sexy hero who seduces women for a living, a sweet and shy girl who denies to get involved with the beautiful, dark stranger with the very dirty mouth... I shudder (in a good way) every time I he tells something dirty to her, trying to dominate her... since their first encounter. "Be careful." The man winks again. "Or next time, you'll wind up on your hands and knees." He leans in to whisper, just for me. "Exactly where you belong". And these were the most sweet words spoken in the whole book, imagine the wicked things that come out of Vaughn's mouth! *blushing*But of course, there's a hidden agenda, he was hired to seduce her and show proof of that, by whom? well, that's the mystery and we don't get to read it in this book.There's a lot of sexy scenes and mystery to keep you reading until the end, and it's a very short and easy read, the only bad part is, it ends with a cliffhanger!. I can't wait to read the next part and it's only .98 cents at Amazon. View all my reviews

Crash by Nicole Williams My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4 TOTALLY JUDE STARS!!!This was my second time reading this book and I want to reaffirm that the best part of this book is Jude Ryder, unequivocally. To me, Lucy was a little bit annoying, so I’m not writing a review; I’m going to quote my favorite Jude moments, I think that’ll be the best way to encourage readers to five this book a chance… First, one of his not so good moments, but still, it’s important to understand the depth of my crush on Jude… “The name’s Jude Ryder, since I know you’re all but salivating like a rabid dog to know, and I don’t do girlfriends, relationships, flowers, or regular phone calls. If that works for you, I think we could work out something special.” See?... not his best moment, but then his life hasn't been the best, but still turns out to he can be completely different with Luce… “It’s not hard to recognise something special when life’s thrown a lotta shit your way” *sigh* “How does a guy like you promise someone forever at eighteen?” “Easy,” he said, pressing a soft kiss into the corner of my mouth. “He finds a girl like you.” *** Jeez Jude you’re killing me*** “Because I know I will never love anyone like I love you. That’s what will overcome the past every time it tries to rear its ugly head.” He stepped closer. “So it’s either you and me or me and me, Luce. And I don’t really like myself, so I hope you’ll pick the you and me option.” ***I’ll pick you!!!*** <--- sorry, but like I said, I have a big case of Jude crush “Jude," I said, biting my lip. "I just can't. I can't do this."His expression darkened. "I know I don't deserve a second, or third, or whatever the hell this is chance, but you and I have something special, Luce, and you know it. Give me another chance, one more chance, and I'll walk a line so straight people will think I've been possessed." God I wanted to look away from those eyes, but I just couldn't. They were impossible to ignore. "One more chance. Not because I deserve it, but because we deserve one.” And I can go on and on, but the important thing is, if you like books with a bad boy that turns out to be very sweet and protective of his lady, with a lot of angst and a sweet ending, well this is a great option, AND, this is just book one, you can read a lot more of Jude and Lucy in the next 2 books.
