Ten Synopsis

Ten years old I fell in love
Ten years was the price of that love
Ten years later our world’s re-collide

Alexandria (Alex)

My brother Jonah was possessive when it came to the things he owned; this unfortunately included the people in his life. The forbidden love between his best friend and me was just that… forbidden.
Our families were from different walks of life and as a sheriff’s daughter being with a Moore’s kid would never be tolerated. To my parents their son and Dalton Moore were on different paths and their friendship would end as soon as college began but it was my brother who had a craving for trouble. He was always looking for danger, committing petty crimes and getting away with it because Dalton would take the fall, blackening his already stained name. When Jonah found out we broke the rules by loving each other, his consequences impacted us all with immeasurable suffering.
Betrayal comes with a debt and it would be paid by all of us.
One with their heart,
one with their mind
and one would pay in blood.

Review

Alexandria (Alex)
Soul mates,
not everyone believes they exist, but that’s because they have never met theirs.
How can someone who has never felt a connection so fierce, that you feel the power of it in every molecule of your being, believe such an thing exists?
How can you explain to them that the jolt that ignites every nerve ending in your body is like the sky crackling and exploding with lightening before it joins with the earth for the briefest yet most magnificent of moments, displaying the true force of nature’s power?
When that one person you were created with, comes into your life, you know without any doubt that they’re yours and you are theirs. It’s nature in its truest form. There is nothing more natural then falling in love with your soul mate.
True love Is like an out of body experience, you transcend before crashing back into your body seeing life through new eyes.
You don’t just find your soul mate; you reunite with them with intensity so powerful nothing can stop it. A love so potent you feel it in the atmosphere, and you see it in their aura.
Dalton Moore was my soul mate and I lived to love him.
He was in my every childhood memory.
Every dream I conjured.
He was every good decision I made…
But for him…
I was in his every childhood memory.
Every nightmare he slipped into.
I was the worst decision he ever made.

v*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review*

And if I am honest, I’d probably read the phone book if this lady wrote it. I love her dark twisted tales that draw you in and make you crave the darkness.

Albeit a little lighter than her previous offerings, I still absorbed every word of this tale of lost love and betrayal. In the first instalment of the Men by Numbers Series, we follow Alex and Dalton who are blindly trying to fight against their connection as they struggle to comprehend what ripped them apart all those years ago. Ker keeps the reader captivated as she delves into the past to find the answers while teasing you with the present.
Dalton has held on to his anger for a long time which results in him being down right mean to her at times, Alex has no idea why he hates her so much but the attraction they have for each other is still very much alive and makes for some hot intense moments.

“I want to hate every inch of you using every inch of me”

“How much do you hate me, Alex? Enough to let me inside your body…”

“You’re soaking for me, Alex, and all your outburst is doing is turning us both on.”

As the story unfolds and the truth is revealed, we get a glimpse into the softer side of Ker Dukey.

“You were made to come find me and show me the beauty in the world because all I’d ever seen was ugly…I gave away my beauty, my chance, my soul mate…but I promise that every day I’ll show you how perfect you are to me.”

As always with her writing, I couldn’t put this book down and read into the early hours of the morning to find out what became of this pair. I can’t wait for the next instalment featuring the deep and troubled Six which promises to be deliciously dark and intense, just the way I like it!!

Ten About Ker ker pic

I have always had a passion for storytelling, whether it be through lyrics or bed time stories with my sisters. I wanted to be an actress growing up so I could live many roles but I learned early on that my mind was too active… I would want to change the script.I would watch films and think of ways they could have improved the story if they took another direction so i thought it best that i tell my own.

My mum would always have a book in her hand when I was young and passed on her love for reading, inspiring me to venture into writing my own. I tend to have a darker edge to my writing. Not all love stories are made from light, some are created in darkness but are just as powerful and worth telling.

When I’m not lost in the world of characters I love spending time with my family. I’m a mum and that comes first in my life but when I do get down time I love attending music concerts or reading events with my younger sister.

You can find me on Facebook where I love interacting with my readers.

Author Bio:

I am a mum to six wonderful children, and married to an amazing man who supports my dream to write.

I wouldn’t say that I wanted to be a writer from when I was little.

I only really started reading often when I had baby number five, as he was born very early and spent thirteen weeks in special care. It was then that I discovered my love for reading.

From then on, I was hooked. I read all types of romance books.

It dawned on me that I wanted to be more than a mum/reader/blogger. I wanted to write, as I have a very active imagination, so I put pen to paper.

I wrote my first book, Obsession, this year and I am super excited to say that it was published on the 29/09/2015.

Coincidentally, this is my thirtieth birthday (at least I won’t forget the day my first book went live).

I write romance – contemporary, dark and erotic.

I like to write about loss, pain and love, and

what it’s like to fight for your happy ever after.

Shelby by Kelsey Burns

4*

 

Meet Shelby; feisty, flirty and redheaded, she’s the object of desire to both boys and girls . . . which is fortunate, as that’s where her interests lie.

Openly bi-sexual, there isn’t much that can make this fashion photographer blush. Though her sexual exploits are legendary, beneath the bravado, her life isn’t quite as fulfilled.

Meet Eleanor Murphy, striking, blonde and beautiful, she’s the fire station’s newest recruit. When the pair meet, chemistry can’t be denied, but will Eleanor be another notch on Shel’s bedpost, or could she be the one to light the way?

Join Shelby, Tash and Lex for the heart-stoppingly sexy and amazingly entertaining conclusion to Girls Breaking The Rules.

 

REVIEW

 

I couldn’t wait for Shelby’s story, This red head gripped me from the moment we met her in Tash. The cover alone has me crushing on her and give me a little lady boner!

 

Shelby meets Lena who is James and Johnny’s cousin, She the newest addition to the fire station and wait for it… She’s a biker too! (hot damn, There is a very interesting scene including some bike leathers 😉 )

I was a little disappointed we didn’t get more Shelby as I was so excited to read her story. We get more from Tash and Alexa and all the loose ends from the previous two books are tied up. It was great to see all the other characters and follow their stories, I just felt Shelby’s story was cut a little short (I know shut up about Shelby already, we get it you want more lol)

Another great story from a great writer.

I kind of want a Shelby of my own now, someone hit me up with some great F/F reads.

Misconduct by Penelope Douglas

4.5*

 

 

 

I love a good ” We can’t do this” read, There’s something about the sexy meet ups and sneaking around that is just HOT!

I’m a huge fan of PD’s (fangirled a lot when I met her at rare14)  She delivered yet again another fantastic read with misconduct, now you’re wondering why only 4.5* well I felt there was something missing, I can’t put my finger on it, but I still loved the story.

Easton and Tyler are pretty epic, there’s an age gap (my favourite) and to make things even better Easton is Tyler’s estranged sons teacher! As you can imagine its filled with Drama (Note the capital D!)

They have a very love to hate you relationship to begin with, Easton is fighting a lot of demons and Tyler is going to be running for senate. I love the will they won’t they pull that she manages so well. The relationship between Tyler and his son will have you sighing, laughing and if you have kids definitely relating. It was a breath of fresh air to read this, it was a great read but also different to everything else that’s on the market just now.

There is a few twists and turns, PD has my mind going one way but she is five steps ahead in the other direction, I love when I think I know what is going to happen and it isn’t till the last minute you realise you had it all wrong.

 

Fantastic read.

Sweet Soul (A Sweet Home Novel) by Tillie Cole (5*)

Sweet Soul Cover .jpg

Release date: 15th December 2015

One shy lost soul.
One silent lonely heart.
One love to save them both.

Life has never been easy for twenty-year-old Levi Carillo. The youngest of the Carillo boys, Levi is nothing like his older brothers. He isn’t dark in looks or intimidating to everyone he meets. In fact, he’s quite the opposite. Haunted by a crippling shyness and the tragic events of his past, Levi spends his days with his head buried in his books, or training hard for his college football team. Too timid to talk to girls, Levi stays as far away as possible and completely on his own… until he saves the life of a troubled pretty blonde, a troubled pretty blonde that might just be the exception to his rule.

Elsie Hall is homeless. Or at least that’s all anyone ever sees. Everyday is a fight for survival on the cold streets of Seattle, everyday a struggle to find food and keep warm. Alone in life—a life that’s dangerous and cruel—her will to keep going is an ever-losing battle. In her world of silence, Elsie has given up hope that her life will contain anything but constant struggle and pain… until the beautiful boy she has severely wronged comes to her rescue at precisely the right time.

New Adult novel—contains sexual situations and mature topics. Suited for ages 18 and up

*I kindly received an ARC in exchange for an honest review*

I have read every one of Tillie’s books and thought that I had already sampled her best work this year, when I read Souls Unfractured from her Hangmen Series.

Levi Carillo is the youngest, sweetest and most innocent of the brothers and I expected his story to have a little of the angst that we have come to expect before Tillie tied up the Sweet Home Series in a nice heart warming bow, what I got instead was a whole lot more of well, everything!

I really should have known that Tillie would throw everything she had at this book. These boy’s are her original babies after all and it show’s.

I knew going in that Levi was suffering, after all he has been through, losing his mum and the guilt he carried , the things he was forced to do for the Heighters and Axel going to jail affected him deeply but I had no idea just how closed off this beautiful man had become. His almost crippling shyness has made sharing his life and his ‘sweet soul’ with someone almost impossible, instead of partying with his friends and acting his age, Levi has thrown himself into his studies and his football believing that he will never have what his brothers have because he is different.

When Levi rescues a very sick girl from danger, although she has previously done him wrong, he doesn’t hesitate to step in and make sure that she is safe. In doing so, an irrevocable bond is formed that is both beautiful and utterly heart breaking to be a part of. In the process of trying to put this silent fragile girl back together, Levi finally has to confront his own past and the demons that he has carried with him. Can he finally let go of the past and embrace the future he deserves? Can the girl he has given his heart to be everything that he needs her to be in order to survive in his world?

Tillie always manages to delivery a message with her story telling. Writing gives an Author a voice and Tillie uses her voice to the very best of her ability, never one to shy away from the taboo subjects that society wishes to sweep under the carpet, this time we find Tillie bringing topics such as mental health, suicide and bullying to the forefront with such utter compassion and soul destroying clarity that it will break your heart and give you something to think about long after you have turned the final page.

I really am in awe of this woman’s writing and her ability to make you care about her characters. I ugly cried at this book like never before but it was worth it, even if I have puffy eyes for days. The poetry in this book is also beautiful and I can only presume that Tillie has written them herself. Is there no end to this women’s talents?? All of the brothers and their gals are there to help along the way providing much needed support and allowing for some of the most poignant scenes in the book, so if you are missing, Rome, Austin or Axel, you will get your fix.

If you haven’t read any of this Author’s work I suggest you do so now and the Sweet Home Series is the perfect place to start.
Well Done Tillie.

Lawless by T. M. Frazier (5*)

25756072.jpg

 

 

Thia is prim and proper.

Bear is leather and lawless.

It will never work between them.

It’s a lie they almost believe…

It is necessary to first read King and Tyrant to fully enjoy Lawless.

*I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review*

I literally could not wait to get my hands on this book and not only because of the beautiful man on the cover. After devouring King & Tyrant,I was desperate for DecemBEAR to come and this book was certainly worth the wait. We finally get inside the head of the bad boy biker who’s loyalties are split between the Club and the family he chose for himself. The MC was all he had ever known but his eyes are now truly open due to his father’s unwillingness to accept his friendships with our beloved King and Preppy.

The story begins in the past, where we find a young Thia who meets Bear in unconventional circumstances. In an effort to stop her running her mouth he makes her an empty promise she believes he will keep. Years later, Thia seeks Bear out hoping he will make good on that promise but instead she finds herself in a whole heap of trouble.

When she eventually comes face to face with the beautiful biker, he is nothing of the vision she remembers, instead she finds an angry, bitter and hopeless man who is drowning himself in women, booze and drugs in an effort to numb the pain of his past.

Bear wants not one thing to do with the broken girl who has found her way into his care but his love of his friends, his humanity and his thirst for revenge give him the strength to pull his way up from the gutter.

“This wasn’t a joke anymore. This was fucking war.”

But Thia is stronger than she seems and she doesn’t just want into his life, she wants into his heart and it’s not long before she is falling for the man who wants to protect her but keep her at arms length.

“When I’m with you it’s like you put me on this fucking unreachable pedestal. I don’t deserve that kind of admiration and sometimes…it scares the fucking shit out of me.”

“The truth is that I’m not the good guy. I’m the fucking bad guy, and club or not, that hasn’t changed.”

I was also pleased to find a healthy doze of King and Ray in this book and my heart hurt a little even as I laughed when Preppy’s voice found it’s way onto the pages but I am so thankful to the author for finding a way to keep this character alive in some way.

I truly love a book which can take you through such a wide array of emotions and I can’t believe we have to wait..again, to find out if this couple get their HEA.

This really is a heart stopping, tear jerking, pantie dropping, ‘what the actual fuck?’ kind of ride…..Oh you are tease Ms Frazier but I love you.

Kelsey Burns- Alexa

51PaaSXSsjL._SY344_BO1,204,203,200_

 

 

 

Meet Alexa; Flighty, flirty and lots of fun. A beautician by day, by night she works a pole. Strong in mind and body, no one messes with this sharp tongued girl, and no one can look away when she’s strutting her stuff. Johnny Murphy is a handsome Dubliner with a knicker-dropping accent, and bundles of charm. He’s also the brother of Tash’s boyfriend, James. Like all good stories, it begins in the pub, but can drunken flirting lead to something else? Will they be a match made in heaven? Or will the past tear them apart?

 

I loved Tash, Alexa slid into the number one spot. I loved this short read. Alexa is a beautician who loves to pole dance for exercise (And damn she is good!)

Alexa is the ultimate friend, She really proves she would do anything for her girl. We get more of the regulars too and a nice addiction of Johnny ( Who is James’ brother)

Johnny and Alexa’s relationship is belter, They have ups and downs and lots of hot hot HOT sex. Johnny is near perfection.

This review isn’t going to be overly long as there are a fair few surprises that I don’t want to ruin.

If you like your men tough, sweet and Irish this is a book for you.

What I love most about kelsey’s writing is how effortless it reads, A sign of a truly talented author. There wasn’t any scenes I felt had just been thrown in or a sex scnece just to bulk to book up. Another 5* Must read.

A word of warning though- Shleby has a sneek peek at the end and it broke me a little, I am so excited to meet Shelby but sooooo nervous for my heart!

Kelsey Burns – Tash

 

Meet Tash; voluptuous, smart and sinfully sexy. She’s all about having a good time and moving on from men who don’t come up to scratch. A born organiser, Tash plans a naughty girl’s weekend in Marbella for her friends.

Sun, sea and sex are the only things on the girls’ agenda, but Tash didn’t plan on hooking up with a hotty like James.

James is a sexy firefighter; a man who can rescue kittens, put out fires, and make lady’s knickers wet without even using his hose. When Tash and James get together temperatures soar, as James introduces her to a side of herself she’d never met before.

 

I’ve followed Kelsey’s Blog for years, So when I heard she was writing a book I got really excited.

Tash is a great short- insta love read. It has the perfect balance to keep you hooked, And lots of hotness. I devoured it in one sitting.

The Girls are going on a weekend away to Marbella, The dynamics between Tash, Alexa and Shelby are perfect, I’d love a friendship like theirs. I laughed and gasped my way through.

James is a dominant Alpha male, Who is to die for! Did I mention he was a firefighter. He shows Tash a side of herself she never eve knew existed ( I really want to use a hose pun , but I’ll refrain)

I won’t go in to mch more detail as I don’t want to spoilt it for anyone but this a 5* must read.

Fantastic debut from Kelsey Burns I look forward to the rest in the series.

synopsis

Stitch

As the club Enforcer, Stitch is the man chosen to protect the club. There are no limits to his brutality, no lines drawn in the sand. The club is his life, and he’ll do whatever it takes to keep his brothers safe.

He’s a man who keeps to himself, guarding the walls that he secured so long ago. Then, one moment, one chance meeting, changes everything.

Wren

Life for Wren and her son, Wyatt, isn’t exactly easy. Yet, Wren faces each day with determination and courage. Wyatt is her joy and motivation; for him, she will find a way to make their lives better, even when obstacles are continually thrown in her path. The last thing she needs is another complication, but what is life without hurdles to overcome?

Stitch appears when they need him the most, protecting them when no one else can. Wren can’t understand it. She should feel threatened by his bulging muscles and menacing tattoos, but she’s somehow able to see past the mysterious biker to the man inside. She is drawn to him for reasons she can’t even begin to comprehend. All she knows is that her body craves his touch.

Can Stitch let his guard down and allow these two strangers into his heart? Can Wren see beyond the scars of her past long enough to let him in, or will her fear drive him away?
