Review: Resolution by Lesley Jones




Title: Resolution
Author: Lesley Jones
Genre: Erotica


Resolution picks up exactly where Saviour left us all hanging! Having left an abusive marriage at 45, Lauren can hardly believe that she has found Gabe, a 35 year old blonde buff sex god, their instant chemistry has convinced him that that he wants to change his serial shagging ways and to make what they have found permanent, he knows that he loves Lauren but relationships are a whole new concept to him and he doesn't always get it right.

Lauren, still reeling from the abuse she has suffered at the hands of her ex husband is not convinced that jumping straight into another marriage is the right thing for her, despite how much she loves Gabe, the sex is amazing, they have no problems there, with Gabe she is growing in confidence and trying things in the bedroom (and every where else) that she never even considered during her marriage but they have known each other for just 10 short weeks and already they have been through enough drama to last a lifetime. Lauren has once again been beaten and humiliated by her soon to be ex-Husband, Gabe has revealed he was sexually abused by his Step-Mother as a teenager, and Gabe’s ex is threatening to stop him seeing his daughter.

Will Lauren listen to taunts from jealous exes and her own self doubt; or will the love (and lust) Lauren has found in Gabe’s arms be enough for her to let go of her painful past to build a future with Gabe. Resolution is the conclusion of Gabe and Laurens story, it will take you on a roller coaster of emotions, with some steamy and erotic sex scenes, just to keep your pulse racing, like Saviour, some scenes are gut wrenching, it will have you laughing, crying and wanting to not only hug Gabe and Lauren but also wanting to shake some sense into them. Buckle up and enjoy the ride.


I absolutely love that the author isn't afraid to touch on topics that are normally avoided. That always makes me like a book and author more! That being said, Lauren and Gabriel's story is entertaining enough on their own.. Not to mention the sex is HOT.. I can't say much without giving away some of the B-I-G twists and turns and hurdles this couple will have to go through to get to their happy ever after.. if they can get there that is.


I am a born and raised Essex girl now living on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, just outside of Melbourne Australia, I moved here with my husband and three sons in 2006.

Not only do I love to write but I also love to read and can devour a book overnight if the story grabs me.

I love watching my sons play football and am very partial to a glass of wine, a nicely chilled Marlborough Sav Blanc being my favourite

Review: Vendetta by Autumn Karr and Sienna Lane



Please note: this is not dark romance.

I am not a good man.

I have lied and cheated and stolen. I've decided between life or death, like it was my due. None of it matters, not anymore. These are not my sins.

I see her raise her hands, the dark metal she's clutching reflecting the moonlight. Her finger trembles as she cocks the gun pointed at me. Her eyes are cold, determined, but I know.

I know her.

My name is Devon Andre and I confess my sin. I am not a good man because this is the woman I love.

She pulls the trigger.

* Standalone contemporary romance.
* Mature reader advised due to sexual content and strong language

I wanted to like this book. I did. I loved the cover. I loved the blurb. But I didn't. 

We are thrust right into the middle of a complicated situation, which I didn't mind. It kept me flipping pages trying to figure out what exactly was going on with our characters. I think we tried to get to a mafia type feel and for some reason it just never quite go there for me. The characters were a little too wishy washy for me. Not wanting something then wanting it a sentence later. 

Our heroine couldn't decide if she was going to be this strong willed woman or a weak wilted flower.. Granted I know some situations and books you can be both, but it just didn't work for this book. 

I think with a bit more development of the characters this could have been a fantastic book. Instead landing flat at a three star review.

Review: Forever in France by Georgie Summers




Title: Forever In France (Max Part 2)
Author: Georgie Summer
Genre: Erotica
Publication Date: November 20, 2013



And he’s back…

Returning to the ranch to take up her position as nanny to the adorable Mathew and of course not forgetting the other exclusive side-line perks that come with the job either, Lexi thinks her life is just about perfect…but not quite.

It’s not even the fact that her boss Max is still his cocky, self-assured, cold assed self either and the sex alone, which is as amazing as ever, is incentive enough to stay…no, it’s the other little surprises that completely rock her world and have Lexi seriously wondering where her life is truly meant to be…

Can she accept everything as it is and not want more?

Sex on legs Max still refuses to admit to himself, let alone anyone else that his blurty, filter-less employee could actually mean more to him than he had ever hoped to feel for anyone again. He is happy with their arrangement and for things to carry on as they were, after-all why wouldn’t he?

He’s getting all the mind-blowing sex he could ever want without the added complication of ‘feelings’ being a requirement, so why change it? Besides, hadn’t he already changed so many of his ways and rules to accommodate her as it was…

Is it too late for either of them to work it out and find their happily ever after or are some things best being put down to experience and left well alone?

Another fantastic part of Max and Lexi's story. This was my favorite of the two stories. We get to see more of the ever arrogant Max and his 'I don't do feelings'. Lexi's feeling continue to grow while Max continues to deny having any.

An unexpected surprise has Lexi running back home and away from Max, which forces him to make the decision to go after her or let her go once and for all.

I would highly recommend any book by this author as she has yet to disappoint.

His older brother pushes him audition for a temporary guitar position for a major band and make something out of himself. When he gets it he’s more than excited...Until he reaches the tour bus and meets the band.
Will his past bite him and ruin any chance of a future?
Money,fame,love and life are all up in the air.


The title totally describes this book.. Words Fail to describe it.

I guess I went in thinking I was going to get something different than what I got so I was a little taken back. I thought I was going to get a bad ass, hard core all out rocker.. Instead we get a tamed down rocker who most of the time didn't really seem to fit into what I would think of as a female rocker. So, it took a bit for me to come to like our main lady since *I* had expected something different.

Abigail  is the lead singer in a HUGE rock band. Their guitarist needs to take a trip to rehab and hires a replacement guitarist, Jameson, who shows up on tour to find that he is now face to face... or I should say face to ass with his old high school flame that he ran out on without one word. She doesn't instantly recognize him or  his name but something about his eyes has her thinking she's met him before. Eventually she figures it out and the story goes crazy from there.

There is so many HUGE events that happen in this book I had a hard time keeping up at points and getting to really relate to the characters. The side characters helped pull up the slack and helped me love the story as I fell in love with them too.

Can't wait for the next book!




Motherfuckers. Just because I’m a freshman doesn’t mean anything. I don’t usually let myself get walked all over, but I just can’t seem to help it. I’m a freshman. Fresh fucking meat and I have to behave myself. It doesn’t help my case that I’m probably the smallest person here, or that I have bright red hair and glasses. Nope that just makes it easier to stomp on me.

The only person I know at this school is my twin brother Alex. But even he doesn’t know how to handle how they treat me. He’s the lucky one out of the two of us. Somehow he got the height and ended up a blonde instead of a goddamn ginger. As a freshman, he already stood five feet nine, and the doctors don’t expect him to stop growing anytime soon. Me... They say I probably won’t make it over five four.

Fuck my life.

When she isn’t attached to a keyboard you can usually find her with her two younger brothers, friends, or with a camera in her hand.

Review: Non Friction by Morgan Parker

Title: Non Friction
Author: Morgan Parker

After 12 years, 4 months and 1 and 1/2 weeks of marriage, his wife packs up and leaves with their daughter. So he writes an Indie novel. And it becomes a bestseller. Well, sort of. 

His fame brings him the lifestyle of a rockstar, and he has the fan mail (i.e. female undergarments, probably clean) to prove it. 

But seeing his fame, his wife suddenly believes in marriage counseling. Their homework: to create something beautiful for each other. 

So he writes Our Story, his literary secret-weapon that will win his wife back. But in the process he discovers that true love is more than just ticking the right boxes on a checklist.


Morgan Parker is the pen name for a shy and introverted former banker. Because he could never balance his cash at the end of the banking day, he made up stories in order to keep his job. None of those stories was Textual Encounters, which is great because readers will discover a truly unique and original romance that has never been told before.



This was a different read for me as it is about a long married couple instead of couple who is just finding their love. 
We get to follow along with the inner workings of a failed marriage between Morgan and Jennifer. While filled with humor, it's more than a silly read. It's real and its touching... and Romantic. A great combination.
After his wife leaves him, Morgan finally starts taking control of his own life now that his bitchy wife is out of the way. Too bad he ends up falling for Emma, a married woman. But once Morgan's book that he wrote to get his wife back becomes a best seller, his wife is wanting him back and to go to marriage counseling.. 
Just like a real person, we follow as Morgan as he goes through a stage in his life trying to find what is important and what he needs to be happy. 
Great read!

Cover Reveal: The Scars of Us by Nikki Narvaez

Scars_of_Us_amazon add-to-goodreads-button31
SynopsisKaiya Marlow has always been cautious, precise in every decision she makes. When her dark past threatens to resurface, she decides to take precautions to protect herself by enrolling in self-defense classes at her gym. Her instructor, Ryker Campbell, is the tattooed womanizer everyone warns about. Kaiya deliberately avoids Ryker outside of their classes together, but the more time they spend training together, the harder it is for Kaiya to resist him.

Determined to have her, at least for one night, Ryker sets a plan into motion that will change both of their lives forever. Will love be able to heal their scars, or will they be too deep to overcome?
Excerpt
My arms wrapped around her waist, lifting her to where her toes barely touched the ground. My hands began to roam lower, and I knew if we didn't stop, I was going to end up taking her right there on the mat like our first time. The problem was that there were still people in the gym, unlike before when we were the only two there.
Breaking away, I set my forehead against hers as I said, “If we don't stop, I'm going to take you right here, right now.”
Reconnecting our lips, she whimpered with desire, “I need you.”
Fuck me. There was no way that I could say no to that. Picking her up, her legs wrapped around my waist as our mouths collided. I walked towards the door before fumbling with the handle and locking it, then headed to the closet.
Kicking the door closed, I maneuvered around most of the boxes and equipment inside before positioning us against one of the bags that lined the walls. No one should find us, unless one of the other employees happened to come in for some reason, but I really didn't give a fuck at the moment—I had to have her.
As I moved her shorts and panties to the side, she grabbed my cock and pulled it out, eager for me to enter her. Guiding me to her, her hands placed my head at her opening, which was already wet with her arousal for me.
Slowly, I pushed myself inside her, gradually filling her until her pussy surrounded my length. We groaned in unison as I began to roughly pound her against the bag, grasping her hips for deeper penetration.
My mouth found Kaiya's neck as she continuously moaned, her cries of pleasure becoming louder and louder with each of my thrusts. Savoring her skin, I began to push her shirt up, needing to feel her flesh against mine. Kaiya maneuvered to help me remove her top before taking off her sports bra, letting it fall to floor.
My shirt was added to the pile as Kaiya eagerly pulled it off. Her hands roamed over my shoulders and arms as my mouth claimed her breast, my tongue ring flicking over her hardened nipple. She arched against me as I moved to her other tit, sucking it deep into my mouth.
Wrapping her legs tighter around me, she forced my dick deeper inside her sex. Growling my approval, I thrust harder as her nails dug into my biceps and her head tipped back against the bag.
“Ryker?” a voice called out from outside the door. Shit.
