Review: Room For Two: An Erotic BDSM Quickie

Room For Two: An Erotic BDSM Quickie by Morticia Knight

My rating: 2 of 5 stars





I bought this book because I'd read an excerpt online that intrigued me. I wish I hadn't wasted my time. This short read did not capture my imagination at all. First, the girl in the story seemed wishy washy. Second, even the sex scenes didn't fully captivate. Third, and this is a bit of a spoiler...how does one go from planning to end their liason to ménage to committed relationship? Like I said, I wish I hadn't wasted my time or my money.[b:Room For Two: An Erotic BDSM Quickie|13644886|Room For Two An Erotic BDSM Quickie|Morticia Knight|http://www.goodreads.com/assets/nocover/60x80.png|19261443]

Review: Heart Song

Heart Song by Jambrea Jo Jones

My rating: 4 of 5 stars





I should have known that this story would be a tear jerker when the story began with a funeral. Rafe, a young police officer, had been in love with Charlie, an older business man who passed away. Charlie, though he cared for Rafe, had been emotionally unavailable, causing Rafe to walk away for the last time. Unfortunately, before Rafe could truly find closure, Charlie dies leaving Rafe with more questions than answers.

At the funeral, a young man catches Rafe's eye; he's kicking himself for finding himself attracted to someone at his former lover's funeral. Then he learns that Charlie had a son, Stewart, the man he'd been attracted to, and that Charlie left a note with Stewart for him.

This is a story of healing, closure and second chances. It will touch your heart and make you cry, but in that bittersweet way that often happens in life. I'm glad I Took the time to read this one.

Review: Going For It

Going For It by Liz Matis

My rating: 3 of 5 stars





The story of Jake and Hannah, overall, was very sweet. Jake, the professional football player, had a one week relationship with Hannah, the Victoria's Secret model a while back. Because of lack of communication and understanding it didn't work out.

Sometime in the future, Jake and Hannah's best friends get married. Sometime on the wedding day, the Chemistry they'd been fighting came roaring back, landing them in bed together. This is where the story starts.

On paper, Jake and Hannah seem to be practically perfect and have it all. This book manages to humanize them and allows us to see beyond the perfect masks to the hidden scars and insecurities everyone has along with their will to battle through.

What disappointed me was that there was a wonderful opportunity to flesh out these characters and help us get a deeper, stronger feel for the impacts of some of their life incidents, ( Hannah's father's abandonment, her health & weight concerns, more depth around her mommy issues...and Jake's dad's macho mentality or what happened to his relationship with his brother once he came out). I think some of these things could have added a richness and depth to the book.

It's a fun read if you're looking for an erotic sports romance that only goes skin deep. I gave this book three stars for all the potential that was never realized.

Review: Three to Ride

Three to Ride by Sophie Oak

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



[b:Three to Ride|9550642|Three to Ride (Nights in Bliss, Colorado, #1)|Sophie Oak|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1287706543s/9550642.jpg|14437118]
The first book of Sophie Oak's "Nights In Bliss" series takes place in the small town of Bliss, Colorado. Founded by nudists and hippies and full of misfits, Bliss is a very progressive town and they encourage everyone to be as wacky as they want.

In this story we meet twins Max and Rye Harper. Max and Rye have been two halves of a whole their entire lives until a broken engagement leaves them hurt and deciding not to share anymore., Max is the cranky, temperamental bear of the town who breaks difficult horses. His twin, Rye, is the charmer of a sheriff.

While Rye is away on business, the beautiful Rachel hits town and Max finds himself falling head over heels for the first time ever. Only one problem...even the resident alien conspiracy theorist can she she's hiding something. As the three fight their attraction and the twins try to convince Rachel to stay, fun and hi jinx ensues.

This book is full of everything I love. Strong, beautiful women and sexy, dominant men. Lots of laughter and tenderness and men who think strength in women is an integral part of a working relationship. This book was such a fun and easy read! Sophie Oak knows how to create characters and friendships that touch your heart, get you invested in their happiness and have you looking forward to seeing them again in the next book.

Favorite quote from the book:
"Seriously?" Jen's eyes drifted between Rachel and the brothers. "What kind of perfume are you wearing? Esau de Ménage? Where do I get it?"
