A Most Devilish Rogue by Ashlyn Macnamara

noreply@blogger.com (Laken T) — Sat, 25 May 2013 02:27:00 +0000

This is definitely one love story that always pulls at the heart strings. You have Isabelle who was pushed out of society due to falling for a dishonorable man and having a son...Jack. She is strong enough to make it without any help until a stranger shows up on the beach to save her son from being pulled away to sea.

George is a scoundrel and is in some trouble in debts as well as now trying to figure out how to handle his mistress. But once he comes into contact with Jack and his very closed of mother, things become interesting and he does everything he can to see to it she trusts him. Of course what brings them together isn't the best of circumstances when Isabelle's son is kidnapped and George gives his word he'll bring the boy safely home.

This is an incredible story on how it takes a lot of trust for a relationship to even be possible. Ashlyn did an amazing job in capturing not only the emotions of the characters but also showed how some people of the ton or the "popular crowd" don't look down their noses at those who are cast away because of something that wasn't even planned. This author really knows how to bring her words to life and bring her readers into the story. And I have to admit, the plot was slightly predictable but still had me think "Okay...I didn't see THAT coming."

Outcast Prince by Shona Husk

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Mon, 20 May 2013 19:08:00 +0000

Full of fairy antics-loved it! After this book I know one thing for sure. Be ever mindful of your words when talking to a fairy. You just never know what you can get yourself into. I totally feel for Caspian-I really really don’t think I would like being able to “see “ the history of any item I touch.

All his life Caspian has tried to be normal. That is except for his psychometric ability and the fact that he has to actively ignore any fairy that may cross his path. He can see them only due to the fact that he is half fairy himself, and because of his fairy "godmother" Dylis he knows the rules of fairy interaction, or rather avoidance, because generally the only fairies in the mortal realm are Greys-or banished fairies who will do anything to get back into fairy. Caspian does well following these rules until a Grey called Shea catches his eye while Caspian is buying a fairy enchanted mirror and discovers who he is. Then the Grey is hellbent on forcing Caspian into finding the mirror containing the window to Fairy. Shea is able to force him into making a deal by threatening Lydia, the one person Caspian has found that he ever felt safe revealing his fairy roots to, and in making the deal he beaks Fairy law drawing the powers that be to him for penalty making the situation even more sure. Will Caspian be able to find the window in time to save his soul and keep Lydia safe?

Hearts in Darkness by Keri Arthur

noreply@blogger.com (Laken T) — Mon, 20 May 2013 18:08:00 +0000

WOW WOW WOW! This book was a page turner for sure, I didn't want to put it down. Even though this is the 2nd book in the series I didn't feel completely lost about the relationship dynamic between Nikki and Michael. And it seems like their lives are linked forever no matter how much Michael wants to keep Nikki out of his. They share a life source so if he dies, she dies also...but if she dies, he doesn't. I don't think that is fair but it makes since due to him being a vampire.

After no communication for 6 months, it seems they are brought together to work on a case of missing people who just mysteriously disappear from this fancy resort. Plus Nikki feels the kid she was hired to protect might be there as well. So as they are trying to get to the bottom of the disappearances, someone from Michael's past shows up which kind of puts a small wrench into his relationship with Nikki. I do plan on reading book 1 of this series and I am anxious to see what happens next in the 3rd book.

Matchpoint by Elise Sax

noreply@blogger.com (Laken T) — Thu, 16 May 2013 17:35:00 +0000

Looks like Gladie is still stuck in this interesting love triangle with Spencer,the playboy chief of police and Holden the secretive, gorgeously muscled neighbor...and on top of that the town is in an uproar with this invasion of an alien lovers cult. Gladie just got personally requested by her friend Belinda to make a match her up, but of course that is never easy. With everything going on there is another murder investigation and though she is trying to stay out of it, it seems everyone including Belinda who's the cops number one suspect is dragging her in.

I have to say this one really had a bunch of twists to it along with some laughs, plus some WTF moments. Definitely kept this reader on her toes cause I could never guess in my head which way the story was going to go. Nice to see some more character development when it comes to Gladie herself as well as you learn some interesting things about the secretive neighbor Holden. This series is on a good track, mixing romance with Gladie's personal love life, her trying to be the matchmaker her Grandma Zelda knows she can be, with a little mystery with her being able to figure out these murders using her gifts. If your just getting into this series I do suggest you read Elise Sax's first Matchmaker book "An Affair to Dismember" cause if you try to read this one alone you may be a little confused with the newest developments.

Spot Light Author Kate Hofman ~~Amadeo's Love Affair

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Thu, 16 May 2013 17:10:00 +0000

Amadeo, Conte di Sant'Angelo, has met Heidelinde Müller, an advertising designer, on a ski trip. He wants to know this fascinating woman better. Their friendship grows, despite interference from their mothers and persistent old flames.

When a trip to his villa ends badly, he whisks her to the warm sands of Ocean Breeze, Florida.

Pushed to the limit, they enter a sham engagement.

Can he persuade her that he wants the engagement to be 'real'? Will they be able to overcome the obstacles that are being thrown in their path to happiness?

AFFAIR – Excerpt #2

Amadeo smiled. "Jeff Harcourt and Tom Fredericks own the St.George Art Gallery downtown. They are a married gay couple, great fun. And they have exceptional artists working for their gallery." He decided to explain a bit more.
"I am friends with both Tom and Jeff. Let me warn you that Tom is at times a bit outré—he’s older than Jeff by some fifteen, twenty years, I would guess, but is fighting a valiant rearguard action to appear younger than he is—I guess he must be a bit over fifty, but you’d never know it. He’s a tawny redhead, who gets a light tan from Electric Beach, never risks the actual sun."

"Electric beach?"

Amadeo explained, "He goes to a tanning salon." He interrupted himself. "Well, you’ll soon see. When we’ve finished our walk we’ll drive over to the gallery. Tom will declare a coffee break and do his best to find out exactly what the situation is between us." He grinned. "I have no intention of telling him anything. It’s much more fun watching him ask clever questions trying to find out."

"You’ve piqued my curiosity."

"Glad I was able to pique something— The way you flew out of bed this morning I was beginning to wonder whether you thought you had exhausted my possibilities."

"As if."

Amadeo caught Heidelinde’s hand and pulled her a bit closer. "Had enough walking for the moment?" he breathed. When she nodded, he went on, "Then let’s get back, have a leisurely shower, and take our time getting dressed for an art gallery visit."

I adored this book! It had everything. Good guys, bad guys and a broken heroine! It is a must read for those that love family stories with a happy ending. I can’t wait to read more about the Sullivan family, so they can get their happy ending too.

Chloe breaks down and trusts Chase for one night. Chase realizes that they have a connection and talks her into staying for the week while he is doing a photo shoot at his brothers vineyard.

Predatory by Alexandra Ivy

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:58:00 +0000

I loved this book. It was an anthology by 4 different writers. Each with their own spin on guardians and immortals. It is a must read to get to know authors and their worlds. I will just talk about the first book .

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:54:00 +0000

This book was a panty melter! I have never read a book where two authors where so in sync with each other. The books flow together as if written by the same person. This is a must read series. I can’t wait to read more from them!

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:51:00 +0000

Garden of Desire by Delilah Devlin

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:46:00 +0000

This was the first book that I have read by Ms. Devlin and I enjoyed it a lot. I want to read more by her. I hope she does more in this series. It had it all futuristic pirates and dragons along with a concubine. It is a must read.

Fastball by V.K. Sykes

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:43:00 +0000

This was a good book. I will admit that I did have a hard time reading it at parts. It seemed to drag for me making it harder for me to get into the story fully. I figured you would want my honest opinion.

This was the story of Jake and Maddie. Jake is a baseball player with the Patriots and Maddie is a reporter. Maddie tells Jake that she wants to do a real interview with him. He agrees as long as she agrees to make it a private one. During the interview they realize they have a connection together. Maddie and Jake get into trouble for not following procedure for doing the interviews. They are told to stay away from each other or else. Jake finds ways to be around Maddie to see if there was really something there. Read the book and find out if he hit’s a homerun or strikeout.

The Vampire Affair (part 1) by Vivi Anna

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:40:00 +0000

This was a great book. It was the first book I had ever read by Vivi Anna. I look forward to reading Vampire Affair part 2 and finding out how the story continues. The things Makayla did to get a story had me thinking yeah I would do that. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did.

She goes through great lengths to try and get close enough to him to get her info. From pretending to be someone she is not to being a maid. She wants the story so bad that she goes to a writers conference where she finds out he is a guest speaker. Sparks fly and Mak tries to get closer, but it always seems that things get in their way. This is a must read.

True Love by Jude Deveraux

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Wed, 15 May 2013 16:37:00 +0000

I can’t begin to tell you how thrilled and honored that I was able to review True Love. I have loved Ms. Deveraux’s books for many years and this was the icing on the cake for me. I absolutely loved this book. It reminded me why I love her as an author. It brought in a new branch of the Montgomery family, while reminding me of the ones I already knew. It was great to read about Jilly and Mike and Kane and their wives even if it was only briefly. This is a must read for Deveraux fans. On to our review!

Alix and Jared met when she was 4 and he was 14 at his Aunt Addy’s house. Now many years and secrets later our couple reunites at Aunt Addy’s. Addy has requested in her will that Alix find out what happened to Valentina over 200 years ago. Jared doesn’t want Alix in the house that is now his.

The two realize that they are kindred spirits and falling in love with each other even though Jared was warned to keep his hands to himself. The two work to solve the mystery and deal with Caleb the ghost of his long dead great great grandfather who won’t give straight answers and Alix’s parents.

Immortally Embraced By Angie Fox

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Sat, 11 May 2013 04:00:00 +0000

Love Love Love!-What else can I say? Other than-I really wish the third book, Immortally Ever After was already out. I was lucky enough to come across Immortally Yours, the first book in the series, and about half way through I couldn’t stop myself from getting this one, the second book in the series-Immortally Embraced. Angie’s characters have a knack for literally making me laugh out loud, and keeping me engrossed from page 1. If you haven’t started this series yet you really really should; you won’t regret it. Definitely start with book 1 though, ‘cause one of the main things that happen in book 2, can be considered a Spoiler. Book 2 was as equally superb as book 1-Keep ‘em commin Angie-5 heart read all the way.

So the Gods have called a truce…. Of course you would think that Petra’s MASH unit would slow down. Nope. Not so much. Now they get to see un-war related injuries; including an unexpectedly pregnant Medusa. I know right **grinning** All Petra wants if for the war to officially be declared over so she and Galen can romp between the sheets all they want. Is that gonna happen? Nope. Instead Galen is suddenly called back to duty on a super-secret mission and instead of telling Petra to “wait for him” he dumps her, and while Petra is still reeling from that shock a new prophecy has been announced; one stating that she will find love. What!! Girlie don’t be thinking so….That is until a certain man shows up and everything goes haywire.

Breaking the Rules by Jennifer Lewis

noreply@blogger.com (Laken T) — Sat, 11 May 2013 01:52:00 +0000

Who wouldn't want to break the rules for love? Romani gypsy Susana Cigan at the age of 13 knew who she would spend the rest of her life with, one night when a young Joe Figueroa comes to her on a dare to get his fortune told. Ten years later he comes back to find out his ex-wife wasn't exactly who was suppose to be the love of his life. When he confronts the gypsy that's haunted his dreams she confesses something she held back about the women. Things become hot and heavy when Susan must choice to stay with the traditions she was raised with, or follow her heart and body and follows her own destiny.

I enjoyed this story very much. I am a sucker for storylines about how our destinies are intertwined and finding that ONE person your met to be with for the rest of your life. Some would call it a fairy tale complex. Jennifer Lewis is a gifted writer, and definitely wrote a page turner.

Destiny Redeemed - Gabrielle Bisset

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Thu, 09 May 2013 00:09:00 +0000

Enjoyable read. It's an otherworld type of story with a different kind of race called the Aeveren. These people make me think of the Phoenix in that they are extraordinarily long lived; it is not one consecutive life however, but many lives and they can remember their past lives. Pretty cool concept. They've got a "mate" or, “destined one” that biology has chosen for them, but they have to be lucky enough to find them in any given lifetime. They can love and be with others, but it's just not as fulfilling. Destiny Redeemed gets 4 hearts-it was good but I was not completely absorbed.

Amon has lived for forty-seven lifetimes and has spent a great number of them being bad as he wants to be. All those lifetimes of abusing his powers and using them to manipulate people to get what he wants-and damned be the consequences has finally caught up with him. He is sent to their people's equivalent of prison, Nil, for the remainder of his lifetimes. It takes his sidhe servant a year to break him out, and his time spent in Nil has reformed his selfish ways. Luckily for the female healer who is abducted to see to the grievous wounds inflicted upon him in Nil-only to find out that after waiting forty-five lifetimes she has finally found her destined one. To bad he is wanted/hunted criminal. Seeing that he is reformed she accepts him, and now he has to keep her safe from the bounty hunter sent for him and a former bad alliance.

Bitter Disenchantment: A Coveted Novella by Shawntelle Madison

noreply@blogger.com (Laken T) — Wed, 08 May 2013 17:42:00 +0000

http://www.shawntellemadison.com/

Werewolf Natalya Stravinsky’s outspoken sidekick, Aggie McClure, is featured in this prequel novella. Before Agatha set foot in South Toms River, New Jersey, she had the fight of her life to face. Destined to be the alpha female over her Manhattan pack, Aggie was fully prepared to take on her role until her father arranges a marriage without her consent. She wants out–but the only way is with money–something her new controlling husband won’t give her to escape. But such odds never kept a wolf like Aggie down. To sever the twisted tie, she finds herself pitted against raging wood nymphs and backstabbing brownies in an underground supernatural fighting ring. With every victory, the sweet taste of freedom is closer, but her husband isn’t willing to let her go that easily. Until the very end, Aggie must fight for the one thing she’s never had: a choice.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You've already gotten to meet Agatha "Aggie" through Natalya's book "Coveted", but in this novella you get to learn more about her and her life. I enjoy when authors like Shawntelle do this, gives you a better understanding when it comes to character development. Shawntelle brings up certain character traits that are not always talked about due to of uncomfortable they are, which to me makes Aggie as well as Natalya and others more human than werewolf. Looking forward to learning more about Aggie in upcoming books.

Spot Light Author: The Devil's Touch by Vivien Sparx

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Thu, 02 May 2013 23:17:00 +0000

Blurb:

Lucien Lance - a ruthless, relentless corporate raider. A man known for his single minded determination and his uncompromising thirst for money and power. A man so fearsome they had a name for him on Wall Street.

Lucifer.
When young Angelica meets Lucien at a business function she quickly discovers just how dangerous and sexy Lucien is, as he seduces her into an erotic world of dominance and submission using a mysterious pleasure technique called the 'Devil's Touch'.
But Lucien's hunger for wealth and control comes with a cost... and Angelica must decide how much she is willing to risk to earn the chance of love.

The first brush of his tongue was broad and soft, setting a swathe of new nerves on edge. Then when she felt his mouth again, it was as a series of hardened rapid flickers around - but never quite on - the jutting stiffened nub at her center.
"Oh, God. I... I can't take... I'm going to scream!" she hissed.
"Do it!" Lucien encouraged her. "Scream, Angelica. No one will hear you. Scream as loud as you can."
And she opened her mouth wide and the cry in her throat was a release of all her humiliation, her wanting, and her ecstatic rapture that sounded as a long exultant roar in the most absolute and shattering moment of Angelica's entire life.
Her eyes fluttered open slowly, and there was a dreamy, almost intoxicated glaze to her expression. Lucien was kneeling on the bed holding a glass tumbler of water. Angelica blinked up at him.
"You fainted," he said, and handed her the water.
"I... I fainted?"
Lucien nodded. "Just for a moment. It's nothing to worry about. The Devil's Touch does that to every woman."

About the Author:

As a writer of erotic romance, the beauty of the genre is not in creating lavish settings for my stories.

Nor is my fascination for erotic romance drawn from the opportunity to create handsome heroes and beautiful heroines.

My real love for the genre stems from the opportunity to take my readers on a journey and engage as many of their emotions as possible.

I believe writing erotic romance gives authors the most influence over how a reader feels as we engage them in our stories.

Writers of action books, or horror books certainly can create compelling situations, but with erotic romance we writers can immerse our readers in a multitude of emotions unprecedented in any other form of creative fiction.

I can frustrate readers, make them laugh, make them cry, delight them, intrigue them, inform them – erotic fiction is a total emotional experience, and it is gratifying to hear readers respond to stories with passion.

I believe readers want to be engaged and drawn into the pages of a story, and as a writer of erotic romance, we have the greatest opportunity because our stories are always relatable. They may be fictional worlds and fictional characters, but the themes of love and romance and erotica are so universal, and so personal to each of us that we all respond to stories in different ways.

But we all respond.

And that’s the true joy of writing erotic romance. It matters not so much how you respond as you read… it matters only that you do respond. If a writer can engage you and make you feel, then the story’s journey is one well worth taking.

The Devil's Touch by Vivien Sparx

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Thu, 02 May 2013 23:16:00 +0000

http://viviensparx.blogspot.com/

First off, I like how Vivien referred to herself the book when Lea tells Angelica about some books she can read about submission.

**Small Spoiler**

'"Come back to my apartment," she said. "I’ve got some stories
about Masters and their submissives on my kindle you can read.
They’re written by a woman named Vivien Sparx. After you’ve
read ‘Her Master’s Kiss’ you’ll know what to expect. Then you can
make up your mind."'
Now there are a couple things that threw me off. One there was no chapters and two, the almost constant back and forth between Angelica's point of view and Lucien's which made reading slightly confusing. Very well written and is absolutely a page turner. Once I started reading I didn't want to stop...as a friend described a book once, I must use now "panty melter". There was a turn of events I didn't see coming and it was rather exciting yet a little scary. Nice to see how Lucien's and Angelica's personal characteristics go one way to another.

The Human Side by Heaven Liegh Eldeen

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 20:25:00 +0000

http://www.heaveneldeen.com/

This was a good book about fallen angels. It is a continuation to The Demon Side. In this story the main characters already knew each other. Even though it is a contination the author does a wonderful job of making sure the reader is not totally lost.

We have Etta who is a human and Rahovart who is an angel. Even though Etta doesn’t remember Rahovart, he remembers her. He watches over her and tries to protect her even though she has guardians. When Rahovart is sent back to earth to keep a closer eye on Etta; and to prove that they were ment to be together he jumps at the chance.

He is accompanied by Gabriel when he returns to Earth. Gabriel and Ra try to find out what is allowing the demons to cross over and torment Etta with nightmares. They soon realize that a portal is opening allowing the demons to come to the human realm. It becomes a battle of good ad evil ad Ra tries to protect Etta and win her love.

Blood Roses by Lindsay J. Pryor

noreply@blogger.com (Bitten By Love Reviews) — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 20:21:00 +0000

http://www.lindsayjpryor.com/

This book is the second in the Blackthorn series. This was my first time picking up a book by Lindsay Pryor and I enjoyed it immensely. I will be getting the rest of this series. This is a time when humans and werewolves; vampires and witches all exist together but not in harmony.

Leila would do anything for her sisters. When Leila finds out her sister Alisha is missing and being held by vampires she has no choice but to head to Blackthorn and save her sister. Blackthorn is an evil place for humans but Leila goes there. Leila soon realizes that Caleb and Alisha have tricked her to save Caleb’s brother. To make matters worse Caleb won’t allow her to return to Summerton.

Caleb also senses that there is more to Leila then her just being a witch. He realizes that Leila is a Serryn, a special breed of witches that had been thought extinct. A serryns blood could kill a vampire. Caleb keeps Leila hostage to both scare her and protect her against the other vampires that would kill her for her blood.
