"The Witch’s Champions" by Honoria Ravena

Author's Book Description : 4 Flames | 23483 words

When Gianna's car breaks down on a remote road in Idaho and a truck rolls up behind her, she knows it's not a Good Samaritan who's stopped to help her. Witch hunters have been after her since she was sixteen and this one has been more dogged than most. When he chases her into the woods with a crossbow she has no idea how she's going to get out of this mess.
Cris and Mordecai have been living without a third mate for a hundred and fifty years and Cris is sick of it. Mordecai is afraid he will get another lover killed, and has been trying to chase Cris away since Amelia was murdered by witch hunters. When Cris finds an attractive woman in trouble, he takes advantage of the situation to bring Mordecai out of his funk.
Both Mordecai and Gianna are resistant to the idea, but when their lives are threatened they'll have to come together to fight the people that would see them all dead.

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars! One witch’s determination to survive is tested when two men drag her into their lives with plans to save her and keep her for good.

This surprising fast-paced drama had more twists than I expected and enough lust-turned-romance to read about to enjoy being on your toes. Gianna (Gia / Georgianna) is scared about letting anyone get close to her for fear that they’ll be put into harms way, so even though she is immediately attracted to Cris (Cristobal) & Cai (Mordecai) when they all first meet she tries her best to keep her feelings for them at bay. However, Cris quickly wears down both Cai & Gianna’s fears by seducing them enough to make them not worry so much. *hahaa* While I enjoyed the seriousness and eroticness of this plot, I found it very quirky too much to my enjoyment. I would love to read more about this entertaining trio.

I do recommend this novel to those looking for a unique paranormal erotic romance!

-- On a side note --
Okay ... I received this novel through Secret Cravings Publishing in exchange for an honest review in July 2015, which was before they announced they were shutting down. Because of my overgrown TBR list it took me a long while to read/review it and even though this novel isn't around for purchasing at this time I liked it enough that I felt I still needed to tell you all about it. =0)

Book Teaser(s) :
“Hi.” His voice was so deep it made my bones ache. He had just a hint of an English accent, as if he hadn’t been there in a long time. A little chill went down my spine, and not the bad kind. He was hot. I loved a man with a deep, accented voice.
His scent hit me as the breeze brushed past. He smelled faintly of pine trees and perspiration.
I realized I’d been silent for a long time while I’d ogled him. His pleased, knowing grin exposed lots of white teeth.
I cleared my throat. “Hello. Thanks for not eating me.”
His smile turned sinful as he eyed me. “We’ll get to that.”
I flushed from my forehead to my toes and had to clear my throat to speak. “The point was thanks for saving me.” ~ within Chapter 1

Made the Grade: Highland Gargoyles Series, Book 1

Format: Kindle Edition | File Size: 2132 KB | Release Date: October 17, 2014 | Publisher: Self-Published | Obtained: Amazon | Originally Found Out About @ THE WOLF PACK RUN IS HEADING YOUR WAY!

"Knights of Stone: Mason" [Highland Gargoyles Series, Book 1] by Lisa Carlisle

Author's Book Description : Gargoyles, tree witches, and wolf shifters have divided the Isle of Stone after a great battle twenty-five years ago. When Kayla, a tree witch, hears about the unconventional rock concerts in the gargoyle’s territory, she sneaks from her coven and into their territory to see for herself. Night after night, she returns to see one in particular shift into human form and play guitar at these unconventional shows.

For several nights, Mason has kept watch for the pixie-like female. He plans to seduce her, thinking she’s a visitor from another island. When he discovers she’s one of the tree witches, he retreats, attempting to keep his distance. The temptation is strong, but forbidden.

Kayla and Mason attempt to meet in secret, but other elements on the isle command their attention. A magical cloak created by the three clans on the island is thinning, leading to repercussions for all the clans. Kayla and Mason are caught in the middle of it, and their actions may change the fate for all.

This novella was originally released as part of the USA Today bestselling Highland Shifters paranormal romance boxed set.

My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. About 25 years ago, a war ravaged the Isle of Stone, which ultimately divided the island and the three cultures/clans living there (the gargoyles, tree witches, and werewolves). However, everyone's future is about to change soon the veil that hid them from humans is thinning and crashing down. Along with that, one tree witch's (Kayla) curiosity about the gargoyle's rock band concerts will set in motion a forbidden relationship and the beginnings for a possible peace between the clans. Will everyone be willing to work together or will old grudges be too hard to overcome?

This unique gargoyle erotic romance is sweet and spicy. I enjoyed how Mason was a gentleman with Kayla when they first met and how their relationship quickly advanced from there. Mason & Kayla’s passionate encounters and how they came to realize they would do whatever it takes to be together, was very thrilling.

I recommend this to those looking for a quick paranormal erotic romance to read!

"You're going to--escort me?" She pointed at her chest.

"Crossing Lines" [Heat Wave Series, Book 3] by Alannah Lynne

Author's Book Description : In "CROSSING LINES," the world’s best-stocked toy drawer can only take a gal so far. Bored with her current assortment of vibrating, plastic pieces, building inspector Sam Wallace decides to add a new sex toy to her collection: Kevin Mazze. The irresistible Italian is happy to help her live out her long-held sexual fantasies, while also insinuating himself into her life and winning the affection of her five-year old daughter. But just as Sam starts to trust Kevin with her heart, as well as her body, she learns he’s committed an unforgivable sin.

Myrtle Beach developer Kevin Mazze is one of the good guys. He’s spent his life always doing the right things and making those around him happy, even if it means maintaining a relationship long after it’s reached its expiration date. When he meets the woman of his dreams, he finds himself making bad choices in the name of good and crossing lines he never thought he would… while praying she never learns of the secret he’s been hiding.

My Book Review : 4 out of 5 stars, during a whirlwind weekend, Kevin's life comes to a crossroads and changes forever when temptation gets the best of him. When Sam (Samantha) and her daughter, Michaela, fall into his life, they unintentionally save him but since it's a very complicated time for him, the choices he makes aren't always the best ones. Once all Kevin's secrets come to light, will he be able to pick up all the pieces after the fallout and really get a relationship going between Sam and himself? Or will it be too little too late?

This fast-paced novel is very erotic but sweet in the way that Sam & Kevin get to know one another. I liked it even though I'm still a little appalled by Kevin's decisions. Nevertheless, Kevin & Sam were a great together, definitely a perfect pair despite how they got together.

I recommend it to those who are looking for a fast-paced erotic romance.

"What?"
After several tense moments of silence, Erik said, "You're too nice."
"What?" Gee, he sounded like a broken record.
"It doesn't matter who or the circumstances--your sister, your girlfriend, the homeless kid you picked up off the street and employ." At Kevin's raised brow, he said, "You gonna deny it?"
"Look how great the homeless kid turned out to be." Wade was smart and hardworking, and hiring him was one of the best decisions Kevin ever made.
Erik rolled his head around in a circle. "You're missing the point. You and Lizbeth have been on and off more than a light switch, but you still care about her. For that reason, you'll put her wants and needs before your own. Even if it makes you miserable."
Kevin glared, but it was all for show because he was having a hard time coming up with a decent argument. "So... what you're saying is I'm a pussy."
"And a dick." Erik's eyes lit up as his grin stretched wide. "Hey, check you out; you're a complete package."
"Fuck you." ~ within Chapter 3

Alan Rickman Tribute

"Crazy for the Competition" [Hope Springs Series, Book 2] by Cindi Madsen

Author's Book Description : The road to trouble is paved with sweet temptation...

Always the rebel in her ultra-conservative family, Quinn Sakata dreams of quitting her dad's real-estate business and restoring the old Mountain Ridge Bed and Breakfast in her hometown of Hope Springs. Except that Quinn's not the only person bidding on it. Worse still, her competitor is her high school crush, Heath Brantley, who is all kinds of ripped, tattooed hotness...

So much for her "nice, conservative boys" rule.

Heath has his own reasons for bidding on Mountain Ridge, and he won't give in without a fight - even to the red-lipped hottie with a sailor's mouth. But when their rivalry shifts into an unexpected zing of chemistry, Heath realizes he's in deep trouble. Because it's inevitable that emotions will get involved, and he needs to keep his eyes on the prize before they both get hurt.

My Book Review : 4.5 out of 5 stars! Ever since Quinn was young, she knew she stood out in her family. Loud & wild, that was her. Nevertheless, Quinn always did her best to respect her parents and their culture even though they never truly believed she did. Now after years of being under her father's thumb Quinn has a plan to finally make her own way in life and it's all based around Hope Spring's Mountain Ridge Bed and Breakfast. The only problem is that she isn't the only person bidding on the property with dreams of renovating it and her competition just happens to be her best friend's band mate, the hot and sexy, Heath. There is an instant connection from the very beginning between them and when they are thrown together at every turn that connection only grows. But how far are they willing to go to make sure their dreams will come true and who will win the B & B in the end?

Dynamic, exciting, with just enough spice to make you wish this novel would never end! I could not get enough of this one! In addition, it was a pleasant change to see a novel that was full of spice while still having a heroine who wanted to respect her values and wait to have sex until marriage. Than to have a “bad boy” hero who wanted to prove that he was worthy of her, even when he didn’t plan to be in a relationship in the first place, was the charming cherry on top.

Together Heath & Quinn were an energetic duo who helped support each other through everything even in the middle of their constant fighting. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about their differences and how they managed to work together. Plus their chemistry was off the charts hot!

I HIGHLY recommend this novel to those who are looking for a tame yet spicy contemporary cowboy rock star romance!

"Crashed Out" [MADE IN JERSEY Series, Book 1] by Tessa Bailey

Author's Book Description : His inspiration. His torment. And his temptation...

Jasmine Taveras is the reason Sarge Purcell grabbed his six-string and bailed the hell out of New Jersey four years ago. She's the fuel for every song he's ever written-each one laced with bitter, hard-edged, hungry lust. Now, with his hugely successful band is on temporary hiatus, Sarge is determined to prove to Jasmine that this "kid" turned into every inch the man she's always needed...

Men are slim pickings for a single factory girl in Hook, New Jersey...until tall, broad-shouldered hotness walks-or rather storms-into Jasmine's life. Sarge's return shouldn't affect her this way. He's her best friend's much younger kid brother, and the kind of rough, gritty, sexiness Jasmine has no right to taste for herself. Even if he lets her.

But lust is a blinding, insatiable force. And when it crashes, it will take both Sarge and Jasmine down with it...

My Book Review : 5 out of 5 stars!! Ever since he was young, his older sister’s best friend, Jasmine (Jas), has fascinated Sarge. Over the years, that fascination has turned into a big crush and a bit of an obsession. Therefore, when he was eighteen and realized Jasmine wasn't noticing him he took off for LA to make a name for himself as a musician, which he did. Now, four years later, he's back home in Hook, NJ to catch up with his sister and to find a way to overcome his obsession with Jasmine once and for all. Yet Sarge soon finds out that getting over Jasmine is easier said than done...

This tantalizing erotic romance is not only steamy it has a great plotline too! Extremely hot because of Sarge's domineering ways, made me just want to read more about Jasmine and him. Jasmine might be seven years older than Sarge but that doesn't stop their chemistry from igniting and quickly bringing their relationship into something more than remembered friendship. Sarge and Jasmine make a wonderful couple! In addition, I liked how Sarge brought Jasmine out of her shell and how Jasmine cared for Sarge as much as she did.

One twist I enjoyed was how Sarge's older sister, River, took Sarge & Jasmine's relationship in stride. Basically, I'm use to reading that the sibling (whether older or younger) would be upset that their best friend hooked up or even got into a relationship with their sibling. So, I was happy to see that wasn't an issue in this novel. Making it that the only thing that could keep Sarge & Jasmine apart were themselves and their fears.

Very well written! I LOVED Sarge (if you couldn't already tell).

I HIGHLY recommend this novel to those who are looking for an erotic contemporary romance that deals with a sexy rock star and some holiday magic!
