$25 GIVEAWAY- Complicate Me by M. Robinson

My brown eyed girl sat on our blankets with her arms wrapped around her knees, hiding her face. The tiny frame that I adored so much shook uncontrollably, only heightening the deepest sobbing that escalated with each passing second. It was such an intimate moment, not to be shared with anyone, especially me. Alex didn’t cry. I watched her bawl for the first time in my life. I had never seen anyone cry like that before, and it shook me to my core, slicing me whole, and making me feel like I was dying. Carving a memory that I would take to my grave. There was no going back… No erasing. No do overs. What I witnessed tonight would be my purgatory; I would now close my eyes and forever see her falling apart in front of me. Shattering before my very own eyes and I found it hard to… Read more »

$25 GIVEAWAY- Home by Melissa Pearl

My heart squeezed tight at the sight of him–my towering man with his hangdog frown. “I–” I pointed behind me. “It’s time for me to go.” “Yeah.” Josh stared at the floor as he slowly moved toward me. “I’ll call you when I get there.” “Okay.” Damn, I was going to miss that deep voice–the soft, husky sound of it. His pale blue gaze hit me, making me feel everything from guilt to despair. He opened his mouth to speak but couldn’t say anything. He’d always struggled to talk about his feelings. I guess I just instinctively knew most of them, and as much as I wanted it, I couldn’t expect gushy prose. I needed to get the goodbye over with. Stepping forward, I rose to my tiptoes and brushed my lips against his. “I’ll see you, Josh.” My voice wavered, tears burning my eyes as I spun for the… Read more »

$25 GIVEAWAY- Caged (3 Book Series) by Shay Savage

Excerpt #1 “Are you just stupid?” I probably would have gone on, but she wrapped her arms around herself and glared up at me. “Stop yelling at me!” she screamed. She turned away, but I saw her reach up with the back of her hand to swoop underneath her eyes. Shit. I turned slightly away from her and practically bit down on my tongue to keep myself from saying anything else. I brought my fisted hands up against my stomach and tried to pull the tension inside of myself, work through it, and calm down. I could hear her crying combined with choked breaths and sniffles. “Fuck,” I mumbled under my breath. I was starting to come off the fighting high I had been on—the tears might have helped with that—and my stomach felt tight. After three long, deep breaths, I looked back to the girl on the ground and… Read more »

$25 GIVEAWAY-Wild Reckless by Ginger Scott

EXCERPT ONE “Locked and ready,” the carnie man yells, signaling something to the ride operator. With a jerk, we stream upward about twenty feet, halting fast and our gondola swinging back and forth while we wait for the bucket below us to load more riders. Owen’s brow is already beading with sweat, and he pulls his hat from his head and runs his long sleeve over his face, his dark eyes blinking fast. “We don’t have to do this,” I say, but he interrupts me. “Yes. Yes, we do,” he says, and suddenly, his hand finds mine. His grip on my fingers is hard, but the way we lock together is almost familiar—right. Owen tugs on the fabric of his left sleeve with his teeth, chewing on the ribbed edge for a few seconds before grasping it with his thumb and holding it to his closed lips, his eyes darting… Read more »

$25 GIVEAWAY- Guarded Hearts by Bryce Evans

Excerpt One: And for once in her life, Lilly wanted to feel good about someone else wanting her. Her moan speared him on as one hand slipped between her legs, touching her where no man had ever touched. At first, it was only a soft caress, barely a tease, until she opened her legs further, urging him to continue. Instead of Knox being the one who wanted longed for, the mating pull had gained control of her body too; she wanted him to touch her everywhere. “You’re so wet.” Knox mumbled against her neck as his finger moved inside of her, making her groan. “Do you like that?” “Yes” Lilly slipped her hand through his hair as his punishment continued, and he added another finger, slowly moving up and down, teasing her until she cried out, “Oh…Knox.” Lilly screamed as her back arched off the ground and her first… Read more »

$25 GIVEAWAY-The Sweet Taste of Sin by Ember Casey

EXCERPT ONE: “I don’t want to talk about that night,” I say. “The past is the past. I’m surprised you even remember any of that.” A little frown appears between Dante’s brows. “I haven’t forgotten a moment of that night, Ash. I never will.” I snort a laugh. “I guess you’re more sentimental than I thought.” My words are more barbed than I intend, but I can’t seem to help myself. What right does he have to sit here and act like that night meant something to him, when he was the one who was willing to throw all of this away? Dante is very still. But his eyes are bright with some unnamed emotion, and his fingers are still tangled in my hair. “I know what you must think of me,” he says. “I don’t think you do.” If he did, then why is he here? Why can’t… Read more »

Need is a favorite of many and was just on Michelle’s and Kristi’s summer must read list. I like most others devoured this book. Brayden is such a dirty talker and oh how I love a dirty talker.

Not as boyfriend and girlfriend. But does that mean I can’t have him? Ever? Not once? At least to sate the curiosity and need?

Kira and Brayden have a desire that is guaranteed to make you hot and bothered. Licking my lips, I imagine my fist wrapped around her hair,… Read more »

GIVEAWAY AND BLOG HOP: MEET ME IN THE DARK… This book is a top read for me.

This week NAA took place on a blog hop that focused on two of my all time favorite characters, Merc and Sydney. If you know me you know I claimed Merc a long time ago, it really was love a first read. The words that come out of his mouth, the way he works and how he gets anything he wants and will use whatever means possible to get it. I was so excited when JA told me she was bringing me MERC (I might have even begged for it). I love Sydney just as much something about a girl that don’t take no shit and can kick ass if needed. I feel like Sydney and I could be BFF even though I wanted to not like her cause she has MERC after all. MEET ME IN THE DARK is my top read of 2015! I love the characters,… Read more »
