Taking What’s Wicked is book #5 in Alexa Riley’s Forced Submission series. Each book can be read as a standalone. Now, this is the smutty goodness that I’ve come to enjoy from Alexa Riley! This book is SUPER dirty and (by all appearances) taboo. I can’t say much else without spoiling the plot, but I’ll […]
Cuffed by Kathryn Nolan is a fast-paced, dirty read with an unexpected conclusion. I really enjoyed this novella. Detective Will Furey has had his eye on Violet D’Allegra for months. She’s a femme fatale con artist who targets wealthy men, seduces them, and blackmails them before moving on to her next mark. Will is close […]
The book blurb itself describes Roping the Virgin as ridiculous and I’d say that’s fairly accurate. With every Alexa Riley book that I read, I find myself echoing the same sentiments: the book is over-the-top and not believable, but enjoyable nonetheless as long as you know ahead of time what to expect. Roping the Virgin […]
Tessa is a prisoner in her own home in a small Idaho town. Raised by her stepfather, Tom, since the death of her mother, Tessa’s not allowed to leave the house or even go outside. Tom is a religious fanatic who’s convinced that Tessa will be ruined by the evil and sin of the real […]
Alexa Riley’s books are pure escapism for me. They’re not realistic, there’s not much character development, and in most of their books, there’s not even much plot. But I enjoy them anyway. Shielding Lily is probably one of my favorite of Riley’s books that I’ve read so far. On the sweet to smutty spectrum, this […]
If You Run is book #1 is Sibyl Eisley’s Bright Park new adult series. While it started out promising, ultimately the characters fell flat for me. As I read the book, I was struck by the feeling that the story felt more like a YA/teen novel rather than NA. Fifer is trying to find her […]
Holding His Forever by Alexa Riley is pretty typical for an Alexa Riley book. There’s insta-love, of course, along with standard Riley characters: a virgin heroine and a possessive hero. Normally, I’m not always in the mood for these tropes, but occasionally I do feel like reading something like this. On its own, it’s an […]
In honor of Independence Day, I figured reading this book was apropos. Let’s take a minute to appreciate this awesome cover. The fireworks! The patriotic colors! The slightly smarmy-looking cowboy! There’s also the full title: All Hat No Cattle: A Red Hot and BOOM! Story. I love all of it. I also liked the book […]
This book is wildly inappropriate and sacrilegious and I absolutely loved it. I should start by saying that if you’re easily offended by religious themes used in an erotic context, you probably shouldn’t read this. And if you’re an observant Catholic, you definitely shouldn’t read this. The sex in this book is crazy super extra […]
I’ve had Archer’s Voice on my Kindle for eight months and just finally read it. (Yes, it has really been eight months; I just checked. My TBR is monstrous.) One of my good friends, a fellow romance reader, recommended it to me. She said the hero is a mute hermit, so at that point I […]
