Her innocence brutally taken, and the traumatic incident changed them all. 6 years later little bits and pieces are clearing up about the past. Nothing is as it seemed at first. The dark schemes revealing a lot more everybody expected. All The characters are strong. Dominating cowboys protective and possessive of their own.

Queen Takes Rook (Their Vampire Queen #4) by Joely Sue Burkhart

I believe this became one of my favorite series. Erotic untraditional vampires combined with a female heroine in a great suspense is just amazing. The complexity of the plot is so well written that you can easily imagine every scene in details. After her deal and help with Queen Zaniyah, Isadore is ready for her well-deserved rest but politics and NY queen have something else in mind. She is invited to New York, where she will finally face and deal with the NY Queen. All of this while dealing with betrayal from someone from Zaniyah’s nest and Ra’s intrusion. While in NY the story is quickly developing and turning, but the reader doesn’t feel like it’s rushing so it’s nicely executed. Every Blood has well developed character with so much depth you feel for them every time they hurt and love. It is wonderful how she knows how to use their advantages and takes time for every single one of them. She is still getting to know the new twins and there is a hint of doubt that quickly dissolves when they open to her and help her in critical situation. She is amazing in her unapologetic love for life…

Defining Human (Only Human #4) by Candace Blevins

Oh wow, what did I just read? This was one intense roller coaster of paranormal politics, fight, bad decisions, good intentions, heartbreak, sex and more. So much happened in this book it is hard to put in a review but still so many questions are still not answered. Ms. Blevins shakes the whole paranormal world with so many twists and turned everything upside-down. Who is good and who is bad, who are allies, who would you chose to save? So many moral questions and not one straight answer. Will good ever defeat the bad? I guess the balance is important but what happens when the scale goes to the wrong side? Everybody claims they have good reasoning behind their decision but decisions are still hard to understand. I loved the plot and suspense and even moments that made me love and hate and curse everybody and every decision. I still have a hard time processing Abbott decision. I really hoped they will get back together. He is ultimate authority, strong, sexy and uncompromising but caring and a strict Dom with kink I love. That is why I was shocked to find out he was behind Kirsten kidnaping. Kirsten is trying…

The Subs Club (The Subs Club #1) by J.A. Rock
BDSM , erotica , m-m , romance / April 19, 2018

What happens when your friend dies enjoying BDSM games? Do you hate the games, the people or yourself for not helping? David has lost a good friend during some breath play. It was an accident but he refuses to see it that way. He starts the blog where he wanted for subs to talk about their bad experience but somehow they started rating Doms and things went down the road. He is bratty and annoying and not dealing well with the loss of his friend. He is trying to get a scene with a Dom (Disciplinarian) so he can review him but suddenly he is craving him not just for a review. They share similar kink and complete each other in ways none of them expected. But when the word about the rating goes out in the community and Disciplinarian found out, their just starting relationship is in question. I liked the Disciplinarian. He is old fashioned, traditional and loves to discipline naughty boys. So David is perfect for him with his bratty attitude and need for a firm yet loving hand.  Their scenes are delicious and the domestic discipline fits right in. I also understand David’s need for safety and to protect other subs, that’s…

Ruthless (Playboys in Love #2) by Gina L. Maxwell
contemporary , erotica , menage , romance / April 17, 2018

Steamy, sweet and sexy romance with a playboy full of contradictions. Roman is ruthless lawyer and a stripper playboy who enjoys his kinky sex and sharing woman. Addison is a starting lawyer and a friend of Romans friend what makes her off limits. They are both determined to get their own way what gets things interesting quickly. One night on her friend’s party they hook up – in the alley with another couple watching… It is hot, erotic, hard and amazing. They both lie to themselves that this was it until she comes to work for his law firm and stops fighting their mutual attraction and chemistry. They “relationship” is intense and full of sex. But things don’t go smoothly until the end when they find happiness and soul mates in each other. I loved how we have two strong characters that just click together. Their attraction is visible to everybody. There were some clichés and predictable moments but it was entertaining nevertheless. I liked how everyone (in the series) has their particular kink and are not ashamed of it. The second book follows similar pattern as the first but with different characters.

Mission Innocence by Samantha Gentry
erotica , fantasy / April 12, 2018

We have a fallen angel who is playing matchmaker and is also responding to all the desires from women. He is fulfilling them and introducing them to pleasures they didn’t know they exist. Her latest project is inexperienced Sarah with puritanical and tyrannical father. This book didn’t have much of a plot, it was more like a porn. The characters are undeveloped, the story nothing special, the main focus was on the sex. If you like that kind of thing this is the book for you. The scenes were ok but I prefer more of a story with hot sex and characters with more developed personality- here there was other way around.

Wicked Masquerade (Forbidden Secrets #1)
BDSM , contemporary , erotica , fantasy , femdom , ponyplay , romance / April 7, 2018

This was a new author for me and I was pleasantly surprised. It is a rare treat to find an author who is somehow realistic about the lifestyles and community and also known how to create likable characters, especially Domme. I was sucked into the Masquerade fantasy and I liked it a lot. Ursa is curious about the lifestyle and is invited by her friend to the kinky Masquerade where she can enjoy safe sex with a person she chooses. She doesn’t see herself suitable and is a bit self-conscious at first, her inner battle is ongoing but in the end curiosity and the need to experience kink wins. She finds herself observing interaction and scenes and is getting more and more intrigued by it. When she almost bails, her path is crossed by a wonderful black man with wings – she calls him Cupid, while others calls him Archer. He wants to serve her and it is wonderful to observe how she grows into her Domme role almost instantly. Their building arousal leads to hot kinky scenes and pony play which is another treat. I liked the fantasy, sex, characters and their slowly building romance. Overall it was kinky…

Nix (Rolling Thunder Motorcycle Club, #8) by Candace Blevins

What happens when two natural enemies met? When predator decides he likes his pray for different reasons than food? This is a lovely romance with sweet but persistent wolf shifter who is protective and dominant. He is new to MC and is still learning his way around but was entranced from the beginning with Tippy who is a deer shifter but also an Olympic shooter. Nix was fascinated with her achievement and his love for shooting ( he is snipper) only wants to know her more. I like the dynamics between their human and animal nature and instincts. It was shorter than other MC books but it was sweet romantically erotical book with no suspense.

Falling Series Boxed Set (Falling #1-3) by A. Zavarelli
BDSM , dark , erotica , romance / March 28, 2018

I received this book in exchange for honest review  The title of the series is fitting for what it holds. We have Gabriel and we have Victoria. They come from different words but from the first moment they can’t get each other out of their head. The reader can smell the romance here, but it is not a typical romance. It is intense, with some crime, kinky sex, sexy scenes and light BDSM. In their first encounter he comes out like a snob but still they draw a spark. He is an alpha male who knows what he wants but through the stories we see some of this insecurities. I liked the change in his personality that comes from his attachment to her. Their relationship is intense and scenes are hot but there were moments when he was cold and arrogant on purpose. And then we have Victoria who is running from her psychotic step mother. And her number one rule is don’t get attached and never stay more than 3 months at the same place. Small parts from her running may come unrealistic but they add to suspense. I could split the series into three important breakthroughs: The truth,…
