Bitten by Romance

Already Freakn' Mated (Freakn' Shifters, #3)

6:00 pm 26 September 2012

Eve Langlais knows how to add surprises in her books, but this book took surprise to a whole new level. Not only do you get a super huge surprise about the married couple by wondering where in the heck Eve was going to take this storyline or how in the heck she was going to pull this one off, but Eve also added another surprise with an extra couple mating in this story, so you also get two romances in one. As always you get fun characters, action and hot mating. The characters are a joy to read and the storyline will hold your attention.

There is a lot to be spoiled so I have to keep this short and hope you’ll just give this novel a try. I really loved the way Chris’s family was brought into the story, reading everyone made the story realistic and fun. I enjoyed the tension between the true mates because of the marriage and I loved how Eve brought it all together, it really made for a fun read.

I didn’t read book two in this series, I didn’t feel like I missed anything. You do get some mention of the couple in book two and it will make you want to read to find out how they got together, but you can read this one as a standalone.

Teaser
“Well, exactly what do you plan to do if he’s not just her husband, but her mate? Matings are for life.”
“I guess killing him is out of the question?”
“Christopher!”
He grinned. “Just kidding.” Mostly.
“Perhaps, you’re mistaken. It’s been a while since you came home smelling like a bottle of cheap perfume. Maybe someone needs to get laid.”
A grimace crossed his face. “Ma!”
“Don’t ma me. You’re a grown man, and like all males, you need sexual intercourse to keep your brain functioning.”
“We are not having this discussion,” Chris growled.

The Fire Inside

6:00 pm 21 September 2012

The Fire Inside is one the hottest book I have ever read by Virginia. I enjoyed reading her books because she always gives the right amount of romance and story, but this time around she also added a lot of action. This novella is a good length, so you get a feel for the characters.

Tyar has some issues, so some might think of this as a downside and I have to admit she was very flustering to read. Tyra is very reluctant to give into Konrad. I just had to keep in mind what happened to her and realize that some people really hesitate before jumping into a relationship. Once she gives, sparks starts flying and keeps flying until the end. Konard is strong and is willing to do anything to protect his mate even if he has to lay as a wolf by her front door in order to keep her safe.

I really enjoyed reading all the different characters in the story and I hope Virginia will write a few more with some of the other characters. I recommend this to anyone who likes a hot shifter read.

Happy Anniversary

6:00 pm 9 September 2012

Happy Anniversary is a smokin’ hot erotic.
This is just a shot story to help introduce you to the author. I enjoyed the characters, the story and the twist at the end that could have kept going. LOL. If you in the mood for something different and quick where it involves a married couple spicing things up then this should be very satisfying.

Dark Nights

6:00 pm 8 September 2012

It has been a long time since I read this series. I stopped at book five because the stories were too repetitious for my taste. I actually got stuck with this book, but the funny thing is I really enjoyed it. As I was reading I remember one thing about this series that I really enjoyed, it’s the way the author writes her fictional characters. They take what they want and will stop at nothing to get it. Most writers write their paranormal creatures way to fluffy now days and I don’t enjoy that very much. After reading this one I am very well considering picking up this series again.

Dark Nights contains two re-writes from two previous stories. Like I said above I haven’t read this series in forever, but I picked up on the storyline very quick and really enjoyed all the characters in both stories. I found the stories hot and full of action.

If you’re a lover of this series you’ll very much enjoy this addition because you get to know more about the characters from the previous books and who doesn’t want more. I know I always do. LOL. If you just by happen to pick this up you should be fine just reading it, just remember this is part of a series so you’ll find more beef in the previous books these characters were featured in.

The Collector

6:00 pm 6 September 2012

Nice story with a sweet romance. I liked the storyline and the way the author brought a different take on angles falling from grace finds their mate. I would’ve liked to have read a bit more tension between the characters, as in sexual and other because Kale did change everything for Samantha. I also wished the author would have gone into depth on how things were changed because of Kale actions. With characters that worked very well together and a good storyline I recommend this to anyone who wants a different take on angles.

Tiger Scars

6:00 pm 4 September 2012

Before I get to the review I would like to add, I myself am not or will never be a person for this lifestyle, but I do read it. The things is in order for me to like it, it has to be hot I have to feel comfortable reading it or I will not like it. I hope this helps you in deciding to try any BDSM books that I read and enjoy.

This is one of the best BDSM shifter books that I’ve read. I fell in love with Ink in the first book and to see him ended up with someone like Cherie, just made my day. Ink seems like a headstrong man that just cares for himself, but when it comes to his mate his is a total different person and is willing to do anything to get her though her fears. This story has more emotions added, it would have been a knock out if the author could have expanded on a lot of details in this book, but for a quick hot read this is really superb.

This is a medium BDSM read with a hot ménage that includes anal play and sex with two extremely hot shifter men. This story carried more pain then the first book, but it didn’t get out of my comfort zone. BDSM includes sex toys, bondage, claws being used on skin, knife used in places *clears throat* well, you’ll have to read to find that one out, belt being used in various areas and mention of deceives like cages etc.

Both the heroine and hero I found very lovable. I hope that the author will continue and write a book for Grisha.

This is part of a series and you can read as a stand alone, but I do suggest reading in order because you get a better feel for Ink.

Riding Her Tiger

6:00 pm 3 September 2012

Before I get to the review I would like to add, I myself am not or will never be a person for this lifestyle, but I do read it. The things is in order for me to like it, it has to be hot I have to feel comfortable reading it or I will not like it. I hope this helps you in deciding to try any BDSM books that I've read and enjoyed.

My first book by this author and it sure won’t be the last because I really enjoyed her writing style. This is for light to Medium BDSM lovers that loves a hot shifter read with a hot ménage that includes anal play and sex with two extremely hot men.

BDSM includes, spanking, bondage, making with claws on skin and a belt being used in various ways, one I would have never dreamed of. Mentioned of whips and other devices that is being played out in the club.

I really like the little mystery added to the story, I was as clueless as Estelle was LOL. I enjoyed reading the hero and heroine, but I also felt like they could have had a bit more time together before it all ended.

I recommend this novella to anyone who wants a quick very hot read.

Review to come

Oh, Cherry Ripe

6:00 pm 24 August 2012

Oh, Cherry Ripe is spicy historical read. I really enjoyed the characters, plot and the heat between the hero and heroine, but what I didn’t like and I know people will hate me for saying this, but it was the way the story ended. I was enjoying myself until all the sudden it just ended, poof gone, needless to say it left me speechless. I felt like I was somewhat left hanging because I wanted more. I hope one day Claudy will come back to this story and write a better ending. Not everything is correct to the time period in this story, but that is what I liked best about it because it gave you the historical feel along with times now, besides this is works of fiction and imagination, so things will not always be correct. Heck as long as I enjoy the story I can careless what the character’s names are.

Cherry, is very loveable character. She is headstrong at times as we all are when we don’t want to do something that someone wants to force on us. Sky, is strong character and devilishly handsome. He is just the right hero for Cherry. I really like how the plot was carries out, it goes to show sometimes we run from things that we shouldn’t.

You can find the free on amazon at least it is today, but I have no clue how long it will stay a freebie, so you better hop right on over if you want a spicy novella read.

Temptation in a Kilt

6:00 pm 19 August 2012

3 1/2

A sweet romance, that starts out with a bang, but slows at the middle and an abrupt ending. I really liked the story and the characters and I believe a lot of others will fall for this couple. If you’re looking for a hot steamy romance you won’t find it here, this more on the lines of a clean romance. What you will find is a heroine that is strong spite the fact of what she has to endure all of her life, I felt she truly deserved Larid Ciaran, they makes a sweet couple.

My Vampire Cover Model

6:00 pm 15 August 2012

What a delightful hot romance story. This will make any reader, author or bloggers day better because Karyn brings to life a cover hot model that will have you laughing and saying oh yeah, I could see that happening. I truly enjoyed reading this novella with great characters and hot story. I recommend this to any one that wants a fun, hot quick read.

Immortally Yours

6:00 pm 12 August 2012

If you loved M*A*S*H TV show, you’re bound to love this one. When I accepted this book I would have never dreamed of the book reminding me so much of the TV show, the only twist was the Greek Mythology that was added in. The world build is easy to understand and it flows great with the cockiness of the characters. Galen was a delight to read other than that, I didn’t fall in love with this book. As most of you know I love humor in my books, but I found this one border lining corny, but again, I think it’s because I never did get along with M*A*S*H in the first place. If you’re an Angie Fox reader don’t miss out on this one. If your one that was not a M*A*S*H fan, you better check out more reviews before jumping into this one.

Red Velvet and Absinthe

6:00 pm 6 August 2012

3 1/2

This book is full of short stories of wild monkey sex, each story around maybe 10 -15 pages long and each book filled with up to maybe 20 authors. Each book can have M/M, F/F, M/F, BDSM, cheaters etc.. because anything goes in these short stories. This is not a romance book, it’s a book full of erotica fun. I myself don’t too much connect with these type of books, basically I don’t like just sex I want a story and a romance connection between a couple but a few of these books leaves me very surprised at times. Plus, this is a good way to get to know an author before you buy a full length book by them and that’s why I read them.

Red Velvet and Absinthe is a paranormal themed book with 15 short stories. These are not your normal vampire or werewolf stories we read, this one is filled with different gothic like creatures that stalks the streets. I found two stories I fully enjoyed, Snowlight, Moonlight and The Persistence of Memory. These two grabbed me because I could feel more of a romantic connection between these characters and the stories were really different.

Again these types of books are just for fun monkey sex. If this is your kind of thing please add this to your reading list.

My Brave Highlander

6:00 pm 4 August 2012

Vonda Sinclair never fails to entertain you with a page turning adventure and a sizzling romance. With her vivid imagination you’ll find her characters and story flows excellent together. This book is part of a series but they are all standalones.

I read the all three books in this series now and really enjoyed them, but this one has turned out to be my favorite of them all. I was engrossed with the story and romance between the hero and heroine, I just couldn’t turn the pages fast enough to see what was going to happen next.

I hope that Jessie will one day get a story and Robbie too. There are so many great characters in this series I can see the author making it grow years to come. I highly recommend this to any romance reader.

Seeking Pack Redemption

6:00 pm 30 July 2012

I really the way Eve carried out the storyline and brought in the different emotions and action, you don’t normally see this in Eve’s books. I really feel that one day soon you’ll find Eve writing a novel that will blow our socks off if she keeps going like this. Her novellas are getting longer and I can see she’s letting her characters grow more.

Warning spoiler below! I really hate spoilers but I feel like those that have ick issues needs to know so they won’t buy the book and end up hating it and giving hate reviews.

Some will have ick issues with this book but life isn’t always full of roses and this is what I liked best about this book. Yes, the heroine is pregnant and the father of the baby dies, so the brother sees her as a mate. The key factor to me was she was never married to the baby’s father and by what I read they were not together for a long period of time. Reading a pregnant woman having sex is no bother to me, heck I am reading a ménage story with a woman getting it on with 3 hunky guys, so why should a pregnant woman having sex bother me lol.

My biggest complaint is I didn’t feel like the heroine had enough time with her mates, it felt rushed after they meet.

If you read the second book you’ll find Jaxon’s story is finished and I really like how it was handled.

I feel this is a series that needs to be read in order to grasp what is happening.

Bound By Decency (The Flying Gang Legacy #1)

6:00 pm 29 July 2012

Bound by Decency is captivating pirate’s story of betrayal, trust, adventure and heart stopping romance that will have you on the edge of your set. I loved the passion and the vivid imagination that was added to the story; it made me feel like I was right there in the middle of all.

I loved the strength that India had and how she was willing to risk it all to have love. The same goes for Cain. As you read you’ll see these two really deserved each other and in many ways.

I am really glad to see this is going to be a series because I really like Drake and Alex and would love to see what adventure unfolds for them.

Load your cannons, oops my bad, I mean your wallets (LOL) and get ready for this awesome adventure because I highly recommend this awesome historical romance to anyone that loves a good pirate’s tale.
