Great storyline

I love a bit of conspiracy in my romance and really like where this series seems to be going! My only complaints are that the dialogue was a bit awkward at times and the way some aspects of the story were rehashed made me a bit impatient to get the story moving forward. The love and action scenes were spot on though and the overall story kept me intrigued. Looking forward to reading Slade's book next.

A few times a year, I'll find a book that challenges my world view. This time the challenge came in the form of this hot little number by Elizabeth Brown. In all honesty, I was a captive audience from the moment I read the plot description.

QUESTION: WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A THIRTY-YEAR-OLD VIRGIN HIRES A SEX THERAPIST TO TAKE CARE OF HER “LITTLE PROBLEM”?

ANSWER: LOTS OF LAUGHS AND TONS OF HEAT. YOU'LL BE LEFT WANTING A DR. RYAN ANDREWS OF YOUR OWN.

“MISS?”
I CLOSED MY EYES. SERIOUSLY? I GLANCED DOWN AT MY DARK JEANS AND CARDIGAN. I THOUGHT MY OUTFIT WAS CUTE, BUT APPARENTLY I LOOKED LIKE A LIBRARIAN. I SIGHED INWARDLY AND RESOLVED TO GO SHOPPING, AS I STOOD UP AND TURNED AROUND.
“LOOK, I'M SORRY, BUT—” HOLY MOSES. IN ONE INSTANT MY EYES COLLIDED WITH DEEP BLUE POOLS AND I
DROPPED.
ALL.
MY.
BOOKS.
ALL OF THEM. RIGHT ONTO HIS FEET.
“SHIT—FUCK,” I MUTTERED, EMBARRASSED, AS I BENT DOWN TO GATHER THE PILE.

Every once in a while I crave stories that buck societal norms. This step-sibling erotic love story set in the 50s certainly fit the bill. While the Daddy and little girl role play isn't really my thing, there's a surprising amount of heart here to go along with it. I know some didn't love LuAnn as a heroine but I thought she was a great mix of innocence and sensuality. She's submissive but she's no doormat. I enjoyed the ways she challenges Brad throughout their story! In the end they have to deal with the troubling reality of what their family will think of them being together. I wanted a little more here but it was handled pretty well. Overall 3.5 stars!

Finally reading this awesome series!

I'm late to the party on the Black Dagger Brotherhood but I'm really happy to report that it lives up to the hype. I really enjoyed this introduction to the BDB universe through Beth and Wrath. I can't wait to see what happens next!

Werewolves and Sems oh my!

Fun reading! It's safe to say I'm enjoying the series. I find that I like Eidolon and Wraith just a bit more than Shade, so I'm excited to get Wraith's story in the next book. No spoilers here but I will say that the overall storytelling and the way each story is sets the stage perfectly for the next is really top notch.

Enjoyable start to the series!!!

This was definitely a fun read. I felt the characters motivations like they were my own! Seminus Demons make for steamy reading! I'm looking forward to the next one!

Erotic Short Story

It's a short but more character development would have been nice. The initial scenes and set up were steamy but towards the end it seemed like maybe the author was going for shock value. So-so overall.

So wrong but oh so right...

I really enjoyed Shannon's unique perspective and the scenes with Mateo were deliciously conflictingly HOT. I'll be reading more of this author. **4 stars!!!

Sweet

I loved this little epilogue for Sincerely Carter. The relationship and banter of Carter and Arizona never fails to put me in a good mood. LOVE!

So enjoyable!

This was a well rounded story with fully developed characters that have overcome trauma in their pasts. I laughed and even teared up a bit at parts! Loved the progression of Hannah and Garrett's relationship. Really happy I chose to spend the day with this book!

This was a truly wonderful read. I read it for a course I was taking this term and was truly moved. An engaging and inspirational read!

What a fun read!

I really enjoyed how Caroline and Simon's relationship developed. The blend of animosity and attraction in the beginning were brilliant and Caroline's quips kept me laughing. The story meandered a bit but it was an enjoyable reading experience nonetheless. 4 stars!

3.5 stars

I didn't connect as well with these characters as with some of Kaye's others. Overall, It was a sweet story with some very steamy moments.

Great Menage!

Really loved this story! Yes, it has its steamy moments but I genuinely came to care about the characters and the storyline. I'll definitely be reading more of this author!

Couldn't put it down!

This book was at turns funny, steamy, and sweet. A truly enjoyable read that I couldn't put down. Loved it!

Loved this!

I love books that put characters in situations where they are forced to deal with their issues and its even better if an unlikely romance ensues. I felt like the characters were fleshed out well and it was well written to boot. This one is a keeper!

Helpful Recipes

The majority of this information can be found on Dr. Hyman's website but the book does contain some recipes following the Pegan diet for reference.

I really enjoyed this book! It was steamy and the push and pull of Max and Anna's relationship kept me entertained and coming back for more. I really can't say that about everything I've read in this genre...I'll definitely be reading more of Melissa Schroeder's work!

This was a touching romance though at times I found it to be a little saccharine and repetitive. I loved Archer's journey and back story, so that made up for everything else.

An invaluable book for those living with anxiety, phobias, and depression. I've suffered from anxiety most of my life but it intensified about 10 years ago and I began having panic attacks. This book is full of exercises and tips to help you take care of yourself mentally so you can cope.

I wasn't expecting much but I really enjoyed this book! Sophie has a wicked since of humor and I found myself getting sucked into the story for hours at a time. I'm very excited to read the next in the series!

The book was good overall. Linda Howard's White Out is the standout story for me! I've come back to it over and over through the years.
