The Pleasure Slave - Gena Showalter

Blurb~
When Santa Fe antique dealer Julie Anderson was curiously drawn to purchase a battered jewelry box, she never expected it to contain her own personal love slave. Especially not tall, dark and sinfully handsome Tristan-a man hard to resist, and determined to fulfill her every desire.

Though Tristan was a rogue of the battlefield and the boudoir, making love with Julia was like nothing he'd ever known. Yet revealing his true heart would break the centuries-old spell and separate them forever. And Tristan would do anything to go on loving Julia. . .even remain a slave through all eternity. . .

Alright...Ive seen this lady around and heard TONS of great things! So when I had a friend send me one of her books I jumped at the chance to see what all the hubbub was about!

This book was adorable! It made me giggle, gave me surprises, and made me a bit hot under the collar! ;) I can see why Gena gets all the attention!

Here we have plain Jane Julie Anderson. Julie finds a jewelry box at a flea market and once she gets home tries to pry the old dusty things open...and like Genie with Aladdin POOF! Her enters Julian.

Tristan lived in Imperia long long ago. He was a great lover to many but one day a woman took things too far and cursed him by making him a pleasure (love) slave. He was doomed to live in his jewelry box for eternity moving from master to master as a sex slave.

Once Julie and Tristan meet and Tristian tries to tell himself shes just like every other master hes had but deep down he knows shes VERY different. She doesn't command, doesn't take advantage of his body and treats him like the man he wishes he could be. If only he could lover her...but if he did the curse would eb broken and he would return to Imperia to forever be without his heart.

So like I said I can truly see why Gena is so popular! This book was great! Not only was it hot to trot but it made me laugh! I just loved how Tristan wasn't used to Julies time...making nasty coffee, "killing" the phone, and ripping up his underwear to make a sheath for his knife! lol This is only a few ways that Tristan kept me entertained! lol

Julie...oh poor Julie is the classic case of plain girl with no self confidence! She's been burned before and ever since then has shied away from men. When she meets Tristan shes totally intimidated but he soon teaches her that she is a diamond in the rough (hey...whats with all my Aladdin references??? lol Well I did just get back from Disney ;). Anyways...she soon finds that she is a woman that is sexy in her own skin (which is something I always love in my heroins revelations).

This book overall was a really light, amusing and sexy to no end! There is another side story between Tristan's old master and a man that wants her that catches your attention as well. I think Gena juggles both story lines and intertwines them perfectly! =) Im SO glad I picked this book and and will be venturing even further into Gena's books ASAP!

Yummy Quote~
He was a exquisite specimen of manhood. So exquisite, in fact, she wouldn’t be surprised if he had “Grade A one-hundred-percent pure beef” stamped on his butt.

Tristan: “My tongue burns for the taste of you. My hands itch for the feel of you. And my shaft screams for the core of you. Let me have you.”

SO GO GET IT ALREADY!!! ;)

I give this book a total of...

Thursday Thinking

My anniversary is coming up and I was thinking back on all the guys I had dated when I was younger…its so funny to me b/c my husband is the very opposite of me in every way! He’s uber smart, calm, a bit quite at times…and NERDY TO NO END! I’m talking Star Wars, any electronics, science, Xbox, PS3…NERD! Lol But I love him and honestly all this sorta stuff gets me going! ;) There’s nothing like a smart and sexy man being at your side!

But this begs the question…which one is better…which do you prefer???

Nerdy hotness

or typical hotness?

Let's put our pretty little heads together and figure this one out!!! =) Pick which one you prefer and tell me why!

Outcast (The Cat Star Chronicles, Book 4) - Cheryl Brooks

Blurb~
Sold into slavery when his planet was destroyed, Lynx was enslaved in a harem. He is a favorite due to his feline gene, which gives him remarkable sexual powers, but after ten years, Lynx is exhausted.

Thrown out without a penny, Lynx is bitter and anti-female. He emigrates to a new planet but can only find a job with a female rancher.

Bonnie's boyfriend has left with all their money and she needs help with the ranch. Lynx is cynical, but honest, and though he has made it clear that he wants no part of a romantic relationship, Bonnie can't resist him. She finds out about his impotence and becomes determined not to let such a beautiful and sensual young man go to waste...

*sigh...ok ok...yall know I don't hate on authors or books in general and I'm not going to hate on this book BUT I am going to say it just was NOT for me AT ALL! Oh btw TOTAL SPOILERS!!!

Bonnie was with this dude who impregnated her and left her...in comes Lynx. Lynx was sold into slavery and was basically used for sex. Obviously he hates it now and anything that goes along with it. So when he takes on a job at Bonnie's farm, and she show favor to him he turns the other way! Bonnie's wants him (and he wants her) but he cant help but feel disgusted at the thought of someone loving him...mainly b/c he doesn't think anyone honestly could. Bonnie's baby daddy comes back and all heck breaks loose. By then Lynx and Bonnie love each other...Lynx kills dude...The End.

Odd thing...I liked these characters...or maybe I wanted to like them...idk I'm 100% on the fence about this book. I have to say the most "out there" books Ive read (talking about different worlds etc) have been the Black Jewel books by Anne Bishop so at first I was like well maybe I'm not understanding all the different worlds and aliens etc but really the Black Jewel books can be difficult to understand and this book is nothing in comparison. So I don't think I was confused about the setting.

I think the story in general just wasn't compelling to me...ya that's it...it was somewhat predictable...it didn't really excite me. I found it easy to put down really and that is sometimes what I base a main part of my ratings on. So further more I just think this one was a miss for me...maybe you'll like it. Ive actually heard good things about this series but I just couldn't get into it! =) Better luck next time eh?!?!?

I give this book a total of...

Always - Lauren Dane

Blurb~
Sometimes you have to go more than halfway to meet in the middle.

Caitlin Moore has every reason to celebrate. She’s through with law-school finals, and out for some post-semester fun when she runs smack dab into Eamon Blake, the Irishman with whom she had a summer fling years ago. Time hasn’t dimmed their lingering friendship—or their sexual chemistry.

Eamon isn’t looking for love when he bumps into Cat while he’s in Seattle on a job. Yet over the next year, he finds himself involved in a rekindled long-distance romance that moves from casual to a lot more.

That’s the rub. Cat is determined not to repeat her past mistakes with men and give up the dream job for which she’s worked so hard. Independence is something she’s spent years achieving. Eamon can start over so much easier than she can—why shouldn’t he make the sacrifice this time?

But Eamon doesn’t much relish leaving the life he’s been building in Los Angeles—and he really doesn’t like ultimatums. At an impasse, goodbye seems the only direction to go. Ending it is the right thing to do…or the biggest mistake they ever made.

This is my first official Lauren Dane book! =) It came highly recommended by Ames over at Thrifty Reader. Ok this is why Amy and I are BFF...the girl KNOWS ME! lol This book rocked my world! Its a hot sexy read that you'll finish in one sexy sitting! ;)

Ok so Caitlin and Eamon met 4 years back at his dads pub in Ireland. Caitlin was in school for being a lawyer and went abroad for the summer. The two her hot and heavy yet light with their relationship while their time together. All ended fine and they parted.

4 years later they run into each other in Seattle where Cat now lives. Things quickly heat up and the two fall right back into where they left...back into bed! lol But things seem different this time...both are more mature and a bit more into their own lives.

Obviously the two end up having a long distant relationship that actually seems to work for them! On both sides of their fences they are getting pushed...Eamon to commit and Cat to un-commit her heart! Both go back and forth between about a year and a half or so and when Cat's graduation comes forward shes faced with deciding if she wants to commit herself and her heart to this one man.

She does...does he???

This is was SOOOO GOOOOD! The obvious...did you hear me up there...Eamon...Irish...HELLO SEXY ACCENT! I swear when he talked I heard his voice flew off the pages...ok or ebook! lol ;) Eamon was hot & sexy! He totally knew what Cat wanted at all times whether it was in the bed or out in real life! He was such a hot little flirt but when it came to Cat he held her on high! =)

Cat...poor girl ran after a guy and held off her career for years then got cheated on. Therefore shes held herself back so much in her love life. Being with Eamon is a big step for her on every level. And now that shes done with school shes got to decide if she will throw it all away and uproot herself once again for a guy! She has issues with that as Eamon does with leaving his business in LA! =/

If you need a hot and steamy little read pick this one up PRONTO! I finished it within a few short hours! =)

Her door beckoned, bright gleaming red. She unlocked it and waved him inside, locking up behind herself.

Eamon filled her small entryway with more than just his physical presence. His heat, his vitality took up every inch of the place, sliding over her skin, seeping into her pores. The man was potent. Caitlin hesitated, unable to remember if he’d always been so. She seemed to recall his sexuality had been more casual, playful. Then again, hers had too. Four years had been a lifetime for her. In that time he’d lost his father and had taken on a new life’s path. That would change anyone, deepen their focus. It worked on him, she decided after taking a long look.

He put his bag down—he’d told her earlier it contained his camera—and hung his coat up before taking hers.
“I like it here,” he murmured, drawing her into the main room. “I don’t suppose I’d have imagined you in a room with these deep purples and golds. And yet, looking at you now, here, it works. It’s regal.” He stood in front of her, the bed only steps away. He drew the backs of his fingers down her cheek and she relaxed.

She knew this man, he knew her. Everything would be fine.

“You still with me, Cat?”

She reached down and grabbed the hem of her shirt, pulling it up and off, tossing it on the chair behind her. Releasing the clip that held most of her hair, she sent it cascading down her back and shoulders.

“Yes. You?”

“Good Lord, you’re beautiful.” He bent his body, dipping his head to brush his lips across her bare shoulder briefly.

“Would you like a beer or a glass of wine? It’s a bit chilly, I thought I’d start a fire before we got naked.”

“I approve of your priorities. What sort of beer and or wine do you have?”

“Take your sweater off first. I want to see you. Or part of you for now.” Caitlin realized her voice had shifted lower, into a sort of purr. It had been a while since sex had been more than a perfunctory meeting of a need. A long while since she’d truly felt sexual, especially sexy herself. Perhaps it was that he represented a part of herself she’d lost.

“Pleased to oblige you.” His sweater joined her shirt and she sighed happily. His upper body was beautiful. Hard but not bulked. Just the right amount of muscle. She was unwilling to stop herself from sliding her palms across his pecs, delighting in the way they jumped at her caress. Just the right amount of hair on his chest, lovely, flat nipples she remembered were very sensitive.

“You’re still so very delicious.”

Hot Under Pressure - Kathleen O'Rilley

Blurb~

Boutique owner Ashley Larsen hates flying. Especially when there's a sugar-fueled little hellion on board. But then David McLean (sexy!) sits next to her, and suddenly Ashley finds herself hoping the delay will last forever—and that David won't notice her comfy pink bunny slippers (sadly, the opposite of sexy).

David does notice Ashley, and when the flight is delayed overnight, they can't get to the airport hotel fast enough. Off with the slippers and in with the zing! Fortunately, America is filled with cities—L.A., New York, Miami—and nothing says "smoking-hot passion" like an intercontinental affair!

Alrighty...IM BACK!!! *said in really creepy voice! lol Ive been sick/hurt this week! lol But Im back now and YOWZA this was the perfect book to start off with!

This happens to be my first Harlequin!!! Yay me! I have to admit that I once thought that these books were hokey and for old chicks...I know I know but I was TOTALLY proven wrong! lol

We meet Ashley...she is divorced and owns a few new chichi boutiques! =)

This was the perfect book to pop my Harlequin cherry! ;) Ashley HATES...absolutely HATES flying but when David sits next to her on one of her many business trips all things start to head for the Mile High Club.

David is a (I forget what you call it) but a numbers guy in business's! lol He tells them all what they should do to get ahead in their company etc. David is also divorced (and let me tell you his story is a B-U-R-N) and has no plans for a love affair but when he sits near this bombshell Ashley he cant help but think of getting her near a bed!

Oh darn...looks like the plane wont get to take off after all. So what better to do then to shack up for a one nighter with a hot bod laying next to you! ;) Ashley and David never knew what hit them after this long night of lovin' and obviously when things leave all was well but they couldn't help but think of each other and soon form a bond. Meeting state to state though soon took a toll of them and when push comes to shove can they handle a relationship...is it something they even want?!?!? What happens when they leave the bedroom and real life calls?

I LOVED THIS STINKING BOOK! It had so many facets for being such a small gem. I loved that each character had their faults and issues yet by the end of the book all was well. The sex was HOT HOT HOT and and their dialogue was superb! I loved how the was quarky in ways like Ashley would hear her overbearing/extremely needy little sisters voice in her head! I looks at it as her internal demons! lol You'll understand as you read the book! Ashley and her family had ISSUES! As did David! David and his brother had a KING of issues! I don't want to give anything away but lets say that he too has to come past a lot of hurt within his family!

Overall I thought this book TOTALLY hit the spot in every way! Was it erotica? No...was it just about as hot...HECK YA and it still had heart! LOVED IT! =)

Review: Nothing but Trouble by Rachel Gibson

Nothing but Trouble by Rachel Gibson
published by Avon in April 2010

Trouble...

Chelsea Ross's acting career has been a total bust. The closest she ever came to stardom was her brilliant performance as "Pretty Dead Girl #1." But leaving Hollywood to become the personal assistant to a famous hockey player could be her stupidest career move ever.

More trouble...

Injured superstar Mark Bressler's glory days are over. The bad-boy ex-jock could at least be civil to the pint-sized, pink-haired bombshell who the Seattle Chinooks hired to be his P.A. If Chelsea didn't need the money, she'd be running from the world's biggest jerk as fast as her feet could carry her.

Big trouble!

Chelsea can deal with Mark's rotten attitude and dark moods. The problem is those biceps and that red-hot bod! And when the bad boy starts to put the moves on her, Chelsea knows it's time she banished him to the penalty box... if only she could resist the kind of trouble he has in mind!

Oh By The Way...

Ugh...so guess what...I have strained my knee!!! Lovely huh?!?! Ive already gone to the stinking doctor twice...once to get my throbbing knee looked at then a second time for xrays...next?!??! An MRI!!! UGH! Seriously! See I run/exercise every day and from what the doctors think Ive either a)strained my knee or b)have a cyst in it! The MRI I have to get this week is supposed to tell which one it is. Ask any of my friends and theyll tell you that Im not the best patient. I have UBER amounts of anxiety! =/ So Im not looking forward to going into the tubey thing to get the MRI. Whats worse is that it been aching all through Memorial Day festivities AND the meds Im on for the pain makes me a walking zombie. I swear to you I can sleep on command! Im constantly tired and chugging large amounts of coffee doesnt work =( Also Ive totally lost my appetite! Idk...*sigh...Im throwing myself a pitty party here...can you tell?!?! This BETTER be fixed before I leave for Disney World this month!!

*Sigh...cant I have these doctors?!?! I bet theyd know how to handle my problem! ;) lol

Ok Im starting to get dopey again so Ill be heading off to La La Land...I love and miss you all dearly...ok now Im going to go nap...AGAIN! =/
