Review: TASTE OF YOU by Elena M. Reyes

October 27, 2018

One taste and I was hers...

Jet Avery wasn’t looking for love when Camille stumbles into his bar looking for work. She’s young, inexperienced, and is the physical embodiment of innocent sin. He should turn her away—demand she run—but one look into her bright blue eyes and he’s powerless.

Hiring her on the spot is his first mistake, but how long can he fight the pull? That powerful need to take her purity?

Because there’s no doubt about it, she will be his ultimate sin.

Raging Inferno by Janine Infante Bosco
Jimmy Casale 
Seventeen years on the job, I still remember my first day like it was yesterday. I fixed my probie patch to my uniform, strapped on my gear and ran to catch the Staten Island Ferry, making my way to the burning towers. My boots pounded the pavement of lower Manhattan as the dire need to save lives pulsated through my veins.
It was a day I became a hero.
Throughout my career, I often thought about the man I saved that day. I wondered about his life. If he had eventually married and had a family of his own. I never expected to find the answers.
Meeting her was a twist of fate.
Lying to her was my choice. But falling in love with her was beyond my control.
* Previously published as a novella in the Burn Me Anthology, Jimmy and Melissa’s story concludes in this full-length version of Raging Inferno. *

Review: STAR CROSSED by Heather Stone

October 18, 2018

Star Crossed by Heather Stone
Sorority Secrets: The virgins of Beta Kappa Nu would do anything for each other. Even auction off their most valuable asset…

Graduate high school early? Check.

Valedictorian? Check.

Voice of reason? Um…

Caroline Littrell might be the baby of Beta Kappa Nu, but she’s also the brains. When her sisters concoct the ridiculous idea to auction off their virginity for charity, she’s adamantly against it…a promise is a promise, but quiet, Ÿbersmart Caroline has a backup plan.

All she has to do is track down Mathewson Jameson—campus legend, local rock god, total jerk—and convince him to play a charity concert for them instead.

The problem? Mathewson isn’t quite the jerk Caroline imagined. In fact, he’s quite the opposite: patient, giving, gentle. And the only one she wants to be with, first time or forever…

Review: TALL, DARK AND STORMY by Mickey Miller

Tall Dark and Stormy by Mickey Miller
Sorority Secrets: The virgins of Beta Kappa Nu would do anything for each other. Even auction off their most valuable asset…

They say I’m a rich, bitter a**hole who isn’t capable of normal feelings.

Well, they say a lot of things.

And they don’t know shit.

You don’t become a billionaire without a strain of obsession bubbling within you. Strong and true, like a deep blue pilot light.

It’s true, I don’t suffer fools. And I don’t have time to become emotionally involved.

I loved once before. This is my curse. It keeps me focused.

Until I see Stacy’s ad. The office intern, auctioning off her virginity for charity, right there on the screen.

A gorgeously seductive photo, followed by some of the dirtiest erotic fantasies I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading.

And they’re about me. Her boss.

I’ll be damned if one of these tasteless men with no appreciation for this smart, beautiful angel will be her first.

If anyone has her, it’s going to be me.

Like I said, I’m a man of obsession.

Review: THE BOY NEXT DOOR by Stevie J. Cole

The Boy Next Door by Stevie J. Cole
Sorority Secrets: The virgins of Beta Kappa Nu would do anything for each other. Even auction off their most valuable asset…

I’ve been in love with Emma since we were thirteen years old.

That part is real. But nothing else they say about me is true.

The way she looks at me from across the room, how she makes my old T-shirts look good, how perfect she feels when she’s in my arms. That’s what I want to picture when I think about Emma. Not a crazy auction where she gives it up to some random creep.

I can’t let it happen. I won’t let it happen.

Despite the tattoos, despite the rumors, despite my reputation as a class-A player—there’s never been anyone else. In my bed or in my heart.

It’s always been Emma.

This book is approximately 19,500 words.

Review: HIS UNDERCOVER VIRGIN by M. Never

His Undercover Virgin by M Never
Sorority Secrets: The virgins of Beta Kappa Nu would do anything for each other. Even auction off their most valuable asset…

Officer Eli Kirschner is accustomed to going deep undercover. This time—this job—is different, though. A suspected prostitution ring, with college girls sent off to the highest bidder.

A face like an angel. The thought of someone taking advantage of her makes my blood boil.

Eli is blindsided by Ash’s innocent allure. The instant pull she has on him and the way she makes him feel again.

I’ve encountered a lot of women, but none that have affected me on a primal, paramount, primitive level. The desire to protect is immeasurable.

Caught between duty and desire, reality and fiction, Eli continues the ruse as the intensity of his relationship with Ash deepens.

I’m not a wealthy businessman. I’m a cop who barely has two nickels to rub together.

When Ash comes clean about her reasons for auctioning off her virginity, Eli’s decision is made.

I want her in my life, in bed and in my heart indefinitely.

He could never turn the girls in and risk losing Ash forever. But will Ash stay once she learns the truth about him?

Review: BIDDING FOR KEEPS by K. Webster

Sorority Secrets: The virgins of Beta Kappa Nu would do anything for each other. Even auction off their most valuable asset…

Vivi Prescott loves Beta Kappa Nu. It’s her escape after a lifetime of living under her wealthy father’s overbearing thumb. She’ll do anything to help her sisters, including auction off her virginity to the highest bidder.

One tiny hitch. She’s not a virgin.

She gave that up three and a half years ago. Right there in the back of her brother’s best friend’s pickup truck. Dallas Monroe was a smug country boy with a dirty ball cap, torn jeans and a perpetual smirk. He showed her what pleasure could be, then let her go without a fight.

The mysterious, arrogant playboy who places the winning bid won’t ever know her secret. But his touch is so familiar, his mouth the one she’s been fantasizing about since forever.

Dallas is all grown up. And he was never bidding for sex…he was bidding for keeps.

This book is approximately 14,000 words.
