Synopsis

Once Rose Fisher makes a decision, that’s it. End of story.

 Like when her ex, Patrick, dumped her out of the blue, then showed up with a super hot, tatted up sex kitten on his arm. Then it was over for good. The end. Poof. Dead to her. Except he was everywhere — down the hall, at the bar with their friends, worming his way into her dreams.

 But with their friends paired off, they’re left alone more and more. Rose is determined to keep him friendzoned — doesn’t matter that he stares at her with a smolder that drops all panties in a ten foot radius. She’s over him, and she’ll prove it by getting back into the dating game, Patrick be damned.

 Patrick Evans is no stranger to consequences. When your mother walks out, your dad drifts away. When you leave home, you’re on your own. And when you run away from the girl you love, you lose her. He finally has an opportunity to rebuild the bridge he burned, and it’s not one he’ll take for granted. But he’ll have to fight for her, even if it hurts. Even if it means he’ll walk away brokenhearted. Because deep down, he knows that she’s it for him.

 The trick will be to get her to admit she feels it too.

Book Review: Watching (Watching #1) by Bethany James

Watching (Watching #1) by Bethany James
Publication Date: October 24th, 2015
Genre: Adult Erotica
Pages: 70
Format: ebook
Source: Free on Amazon
Read: January 20th to 21st, 2016
Rating: 4/5



~Summary~

“Do you like to watch?” He whispers this question into my ear as he tugs my thong to the side. 

I don't answer him, but stay there in the shadows, and watch the couple in the VIP room. I can't look away. Watching them is turning me on more than anything ever has before. 

Do I like to watch? 

Yes… 

** This book is intended for mature readers due to language and adult situations. Also, Watching is a novella and is approx 92 pages in print format.


~My Thoughts~

Oh my, oh my, let me fan myself off before I try to write a proper review for this sexy little thing...

Okay, trying to step out of my shoes where I'm not a one night stand kind of girl and only been with one man and into the shoes of the main gals, I was able to enjoy this little number. Boy was this a serious steamy read! 

At first it was hard for me to get behind their relationship because all we saw of it was the steamy love making and I get it, it's an erotica so what should I expect? But the hopeless romantic in me wanted to see the other sides of their romance. Other than that, I truly enjoyed myself ;)

I liked this story line because it was more of a sweet/innocent type of kinky and not full on S&M kind of kinky. So I'm excited to see where things lead to in the next one, which I will be reading very soon!  

Beware, your knickers will get soaked ;)

Book Review: Accidentally Catty (Accidentals #5) by Dakota Cassidy

Accidentally Catty (Accidentals #5) by Dakota Cassidy
Publication Date: March 1st, 2011
Genre: Adult Paranormal Romance
Pages: 353
Format: Paperback
Source: Bought
Read: January 5th to 13th, 2016
Rating: 5/5



~Summary~

A purrr-fectly scintillating new novel from the national bestselling author of Accidentally Demonic. 

Katie Woods never thought she'd be forty-one, divorced, and thrust back into the dating world. To start fresh, Katie uproots her veterinary practice to upstate New York-not exactly the hottest dating scene on the planet. But when an unconscious cougar appears at her clinic, Katie's newly single life gets a much needed jolt of the supernatural kind. 

After Katie examines the cougar and leaves him caged overnight, she's shocked to find a big strapping specimen of young, hot man in its place. And when the scratch she got during the exam results in some unnatural side effects, Katie has more to deal with then her animal attraction to a much younger guy-she has to figure how to stop herself from becoming a cougar of the four-legged variety.


~My Thoughts~

Oh boy, was this a load of fun! From the very beginning I was hooked and was surprised how quickly we got down to business, I love books that start right at the action! I've been wanting to start the Accidental series a long time now and when I saw this book at the used book store, I grabbed it off the shelf without a single thought!

I'm glad that all the books in this series are standalone and though there were characters from previous books in this story, they weren't the main ones and the author gave us enough background on them where you don't feel like you missed anything. But it sure does make you want to read their stories! I'll be buying the first book in this series for sure cause I'm dying to see how the OOPS corporation (Out in the Open Paranormal Support) came together! Love, love Nina! haha

I really enjoyed Katie's story and by the end of it I was smitten. There's action, mystery, humor, and romance, I hated when I had to put it down! I couldn't get enough of it! Wished it wouldn't end! Which is why I'm dying to pick up the next book, which I also bought without a thought at the used book store!

Seriously, so much fun! The drama, the twist and turns! Watching Katie's character develop from a very logical person to just letting go and not giving a f**k what the small minded people in her small town think of her. It was nice to see them finally open their arms to her at the end of the book!

Now Live!! The Gleaners (Harvesting #2) by @AEhlersWrites



The Gleaners (Harvesting #2) by Ashley Ehlers
Publication Date: January 23rd, 2016
Genre: New Adult Horror



~Summary~

Escaping doesn’t mean it’s the end….

It’s been three weeks since Jason left Ashley at the gas station after their narrow escape from a family of human harvesters- his family’s competitors. Finding out that he used her only as bait, leads Ashley to go insane. He never truly loved her, or at least that’s what she believes, and now Ashley has to learn to move on. It’s the only way to be able to leave the mental institution and get back to her normal life. 

But things can never truly go back to normal. For fear that Jason’s infamous father might come after Ashley to finish things she gets sucked into the witness protection program. With a new name Ashley no longer exists to the world but it’s hard for her to just let go of who she was. Logging into her Facebook account has to be the second worst thing she’s ever done in her life but she didn’t think anyone would notice. Now during her first outing as a new woman, a stalker is leaving her threatening messages. Could it be someone from her past?

After leaving her, Jason is trying to not let his feelings for Ashley get the best of him. However being with her has changed him and he doesn’t know if he can continue being a part of the family business. Frustrated, he blows off steam with a random girl at a bar then hours later she ends up missing. Apparently his most recent hook ups have gone missing. Is someone close to him killing them off out of jealousy? This leads him to find out that his father might have a few dirty secrets that are more grotesque then the fact that he’s a human harvester.

All the while, Virginia is devastated but being locked up in a mental institution is better than being in jail after her mother framed her for the deaths of her stepfather and stepsister. Even though to make sure she doesn’t go crazy she has to constantly write down what truly happened that day up at her family’s cabin. And after her mother’s unexpected visit she might have found an ally in someone that was an enemy. However, once they escape the mental institution she’s thinking it would have been better and less bloody if they stayed there after all.

~Excerpt~

Jason

An itch comes to my burn scars beneath my tattoo on my inner right arm. Fisting my hand, I ignore the sensation.
She hoped to scare the evil out of me but truth be told, it might have gotten her killed.
A memory I’ve tried so hard to forget comes forth. Her fingers hold tight, digging themselves into the back of my neck. Forcing me down, water immerses my head.
I thrash, clawing at her hand. My lungs burn, needing air but I continue to hold my breath. Kicking at her shin, she squeals but her grip tightens. Her nails piercing my flesh.
She shoves me in deeper and my blood mixes with the water around me, tinting it a mesmerizing color. Twisting my right wrist around, making me let go of the edge of the tube, a searing pain ignites through my flesh. A scream bursts through me, allowing water to move down my throat.
Behind us I hear muffled footsteps. Her hand comes away from my neck and I’m able to heft myself out.
Falling to the floor I take in deep breathes, coughing up some water. Eyes burning, I look around as I hold my wrist close to me. Mother isn’t in the room with me anymore, a lone cigarette bud burns on the floor near the foot of the tub. A blood curdling scream comes from deep within the house. My heart drops.
Bracing myself up I walk out of the room on trembling legs. Down the hall, dad is glancing over the railing. Peeking through the slits, mom is lying awkwardly on her front, a pool of blood is spreading beneath her face.
