The Reed Brothers!






Miss Tammy Falkner is an outstanding author who's books I came to love. I look forward to getting her new releases each and every time. Sometimes I get a little anxiety when I finish one of her REED BROTHER books, but knowing that there is another one on it's way, I feel so much better. I do have to admit, that when this series is over I will be REALLY sad. I wish she would or could write about them for all time. :) This series started with Logan and Kit's story. I have to tell you guys, this was a completely different story than most of the stories that I have read with "tattooed men and their girls". I absolutely and insanely fell in love with Logan. He was such a dear heart. Sexy, yes.. funny, of course.. tattooed, most definitely.. but there was something so endearing about him that it took my breath away. So, here I am reading NOT wanting the story to end. Of course it leaves off with a cliffhanger, but not to worry.. there are other books! :) The author does a fabulous job describing these tall drinks of yummy goodness that I call the Reeds. Each one is very unique in their own way, but with the same core values. She tells their story beautifully and I couldn't be happier to have found this series. All of her books get 5 golden stars because there are no 6's. :) I fall in love with each and every single character time and time again. 



Here are the links to each individual book and the book description. I HIGHLY recommend that you start from book one and continue on their family journey.


Book Description: ***This New Adult book is intended for audiences over the age of 18 due to adult content** 

Kit 

Logan wants to know my name, but I can't tell him. I can't tell him anything. There are too many people looking for me. He's pretty persuasive, though, and he convinces me to go home with him so he can keep me safe from this harsh city where I find myself. It's not my home. It's his. He belongs. I don't. 

Logan lives with four brothers in the inner city. Yet I've never felt more safe than I do when I'm with him. I want him. But he won't let me have a darn thing, aside from his friendship, unless I'm willing to tell him my secrets. But they're mine, and I can't share them. Not unless I want them to come and get me. 

Logan 

She catches my eye because she's so beautiful she takes my breath. But that's not all that I love about her. I love the way she smells. The way she smiles. The way she plays the guitar is unlike anything I have ever seen. She sleeps in my bed every night, and drives me crazy with her touch. But I can't take what she offers because I need all of her. I need for her to tell me her secrets. I need for her to trust me. 


From the back of the book: 

She’s locked up tight. But he might be the key. 

Logan Reed is tall, tatted and tempting. 

Kit’s a woman with a mean right hook and a secret. 

Kit wants a tattoo, but Logan sees more than she intends to share in the drawing of the tat she wants. He sees her in ways no one ever has. 

Logan’s not disabled; but he hasn’t spoken in eight years. He hasn’t needed to. 

Until he meets Kit. 

Logan doesn’t know everything about Kit. Kit doesn’t know anything about herself, until she has to sacrifice all she ever wanted to save what’s most important to him. 



Book Description: 
Emily 

I'm back in New York, ready to start my brand new life with Logan.

Things are still up in the air between us, and it has been three months since I've even talked to him. But there's one thing I'm certain of -- I can't live without him. 

Logan 

I need her like I need air. But now she's back, and her dad and her ex-boyfriend are conspiring to keep us apart. We can do this, though. Can't we? We can make this work? We have to, because I can't imagine my life without her. 


Book Description: ***This New Adult book is intended for audiences over the age of 18 due to adult language, sexual content and adult situations*** 

This is book three of the Reed Brothers series, but it can be read as a stand alone book with no worry you've missed any good parts. 

Pete 

I met her on the worst night of her life. She was broken, shaking, and waiting for someone to save her. I am just thankful I got the opportunity to know her. Her dad helped me with some legal trouble I got into, and I volunteered to help out at their camp for children with special needs. Horses, pools, and a tracking bracelet on my ankle. Sounds like a fun week, doesn't it? 

She was there and she wanted to thank me for my kindness on that awful night. But I want her. I want her more than anything. I think she wants me back, but she needs calm and careful, and I don't know if I can provide that. 

Reagan 

Pete saved me. But now it's my turn to return the favor. He's hot, with this tattoos and piercings but, beneath it all, he's crying out for someone to save him too. 

Can he love me completely? 


She’s been locked up even longer than he has. 

Peter Reed is fresh out of jail, fresh out of excuses, 
and ready for a brand new start. 
Reagan Caster needs to thank Pete for an act of kindness, 
but he wants more than just her thanks. 

Reagan knows how to protect her body, but not her heart. 
And her traitorous body responds to Pete in a way it hasn't 
with anyone else.

When Pete's innocent flirtation becomes more, Reagan's 
ready to accept what he has to offer. 

Pete assumes Reagan needs to be loved carefully and calmly. 
But Reagan knows she needs to be loved completely.   

Can he give her what she needs? 


Book Description: What he needed was a miracle… 

Matthew Reed has seen his share of problems. But he’s a Reed and Reeds can overcome anything. Matt is content working in his family’s tattoo parlor with his brothers surrounding him. The only thing he’s lacking is the ability to have a family of his own. Then his battle with cancer leads him to meet a woman who just might need him as much as he needs her. 

She didn’t need anything... 

Skylar Morgan is happy. She has a boyfriend. Sure, he doesn’t make her heart pound faster and he really doesn’t support her when she needs it. But she doesn’t need much. Does she? She’s happy to be self-sufficient and she’s happy that she doesn’t have a tremendous amount of responsibility. She’s educated, has a great job, and she has enough money for a lifetime. But what she lacks, she doesn’t even realize until she meets him. And them. The ones who change her life forever.


Book Description: *** This is a short story. It's not a full book. It's only 7000 words, plus samples of the Reed Brothers series. *** 

Sean has been in love with Lacey for as long as he can remember, but she has pushed him firmly into the friend zone and plans to keep him there. Or so he thinks.

Lacey did put Sean in the friend zone, but now she's ready for more. Only he won't make a move. 

Lacey enters a contest in which a kiss from her will be the prize. Can Sean win the contest? Can he win the girl?


Book Description: He has watched her from afar...

Paul Reed has been raising children since he was a child himself, but he wouldn’t change his life, even if given an opportunity. That is, until one of his brothers says four little words that shake the foundation of his world. “She’s not a lesbian,” shouldn’t be quite so earth shattering, but suddenly the woman he loves is available, and he’ll do whatever it takes to win her over. 

They call her Friday, and she’s hiding more than just her name... 

Friday has worked in the Reeds’ tattoo parlor for four years. She’s become more than just an employee, and she loves being in the middle of something so wonderful. She treasures the way the Reeds live for one another, and she adores the way they take care of their family. She would do just about anything to be part of it, if not for the fact that she doesn’t deserve a family of her own. Or does she? Friday is punishing herself for her past, and by doing so, she pushes away the one man who could truly love her. 

Separately, they’re strong. Together, they’re vulnerable. As a team, they rock.


Book Description: Calmly, Carefully, Completely left readers with one question — Would Reagan ever get justice against her attacker? 

A chance meeting, a well-deserved ass kicking and the end of Emily and Logan's engagement? Find out what happens next in Reagan's Revenge!

Alpha Male to the EXTREME!






Book Description: **Warning: This book is a wild, sexy beast of a read. 18+**

Putting a woman on her knees before me is what really makes my cock hard. I fuck with dominant force and absolute control. I demand complete surrender from my conquests.

Savage man, loner, warrior... I am dangerous at my core. I have lived amidst the untamed wild of the rainforest, in a society that reveres me and where every woman falls before me in subjugation.

Now I've been discovered. Forced to return to a world that I have forgotten about and to a culture that is only vaguely familiar to my senses.

Dr. Moira Reed is an anthropologist who has been hired to help me transition back into modern society. It's her job to smooth away my rough edges... to teach me how to navigate properly through this new life of mine. She wants to tame me.

She'll never win.

I am wild, free and raw, and the only thing I want from the beautiful Moira Reed is to fuck her into submission.

She wants it, I am certain. I will give it to her soon.

Yes, very soon, I will become the teacher and she will become my student. And when I am finished showing her body pleasure like no other, she'll know what it feels like to be claimed by an uncivilized man.

Note:  This is a big, damn book and it is a stand alone, coming in at a whopping 109,000 words.


OH MY GOD!!! This book was completely incredible! By 33% I had to put it down and take a cold shower. Oh yes! It's filled with a HOT as fuck alpha male and a woman who tries to resist her attraction to the man. HA! Like that's ever going to happen...

Zach is this wild, untamed man from the Amazon who was left with a tribe after his parent's death when he was 8. He is unyielding in his beliefs, he is strong, dominant and just beautiful. He is very devoted to his people and puts up a fight to leave the world he knows and is accustomed to. When he does go, he is so damn naive to the ways of the world that it made me laugh. But with that said, he was just such a breathtakingly beautiful character with sex oozing out of every pore that it made me sigh on every turn, and admittedly made me blush. 

Moira is the strong "modern woman" / anthropologist who is hired by Zach's godfather to return him back into civilization and help him "adjust" into this new world he is thrust into. She is the perfect match for Zach (even if she does't think so at first). She tries really hard to be tough with Zach and not give into temptation that gets pushed at her at every turn. She is the epitome of quiet grace, and intelligence. 

Zach and Moira's journey was incredibly erotic and Miss Bennett captivated me from the get go. She can write one fine ass book! There are no words enough or enough adjectives to describe how fabulous this book is! If you want a night of sexy dreams, this one is for you! 


5 HUGE BOLD stars for this book! 

Until Next Time, Enjoy!

Lost and Found Series






Book Description: A portion of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Wounded Warrior Project. 

"I predict this series will be one of the all-time best published in 2013." Romance Junkies 

John Palmer hasn’t felt like a real man since he was injured during combat in Iraq. Though not content with his new life, he is mostly adapting, just like the other vets at the Lost ‘N’ Found Investigative Service. When Shannon Murphy is hired on as the new office manager, life suddenly gets a lot more interesting. Before long, John finds himself wondering if he could ever be the kind of man Shannon needs. 

Shannon Murphy wasn’t really looking for love when she hired on at LNF, but finds herself hopelessly attracted to the sex-on-wheels former Marine, John Palmer. The man is grumpy and nearly impossible to work with, but his brand of masculinity appeals to her on a basic level. Soon Shannon is wondering just what it would take for John to want her the way she wants him. 

When an old enemy tries to settle a vendetta against Shannon, John insists on protecting her. He moves into her house, fanning the spark of attraction into a blaze. But the danger continues to escalate. Will the connection that they’ve found survive when they’re thrust into a fight for their lives?

Let me start by saying that I will probably do NO justice to these amazing books. I saw them advertised by another author and decided to pick up this first book. Why not, right? Let me tell you, this is one of those chances that you WANT to take. I read the book description thinking "Hell yes! Another steamy military novel!!" What I got from this was MUCH MUCH more. 

The struggles that each character deals with, is palpable in each and every page. The author writes it beautifully and you can feel the sadness, the hurt, the anger, the all consuming frustrations that each of them have. This book is about John and Shannon. What the author doesn't describe in the synopsis is what happens to John in the war that he feels like less of man, and in the same fashion, I will not tell you either. But it is something I didn't think of and it was BRILLIANT on her part. Even with this part of his disability, it didn't make him less of a man in my eyes. Broody, absolutely... grouchy, most definitely! But, less than a man? NO! Shannon was the feisty office manager, and she was not taking any lip from John. The chemistry flew off the page between these two and I cheered them on when they finally got together. LOL! I really do love this series and really appreciate what it reminded me of. If you do anything this year, I hope you buy this particular series. You WON'T regret it!!! 

I won't review all of the other books, but just know that after reading this first book I went and got the rest of them. Zeke, in the second book touched my heart, he holds a little corner of it, and he will nab yours too if you give these a try. :) If I could give this series a 6 star rating, I would!! 

5 +++ Stars for this beautiful, emotionally charged series!

Until Next Time, Enjoy!

The Magician






Book Description: Ricardo Hanley loved his job as a male escort. He had a very special talent. He could bring any woman to orgasm. He wasn't called 'The Magician' without merit. Some said he was pure magic.


Ethan Radcliff delivers a tale of eroticism from a males POV. This is Ricardo's tale of how and why he became an escort, and the erotic way he became to be known as "The Magician". 

Ricardo didn't start off as just an escort, he was a married man with a steady job who needed more of an income to support his family. He started off JUST as an escort until one day he became more. His marriage failed, and his story became the talk of legend among those who were wealthy enough to hire him. 

But don't let that fool you, there is a back story to each of his episodes, and it was lovely to see. One woman wanted a dance partner, one wanted to please her husband, one wanted to feel desired, loved... it goes on.. There was a turning point in the story where Ricardo wanted MORE than to be used for his assets, if you will, even if the money was great. He wanted to be loved. In the end he did find his happily ever after, but to get to that point you find yourself immersed in some very titillating and erotic adventures. 

Ethan does an excellent job capturing the heart and essence of Ricardo and bringing him to life. The experiences he shares with the readers is sexy, and heart felt all at the same time. Mr. Radcliff is surely one of the rising stars to watch out for. 



5 Stars for The Magician

Until Next Time, Enjoy!

Cinema with a twist



Book Description: Jenna Clarkeson and Celeste Du Pont were high school rivals, but at college fate has thrown them into a shaky alliance. Both need information on a crucial test paper and Tony Jensen, son of the department head, can supply it. 

But Tony has a price. Party-time with him and his buddies in Tony’s Surf Shack – plus an anything-goes policy and a camera to capture it all. Will the girls run the gauntlet of these horny surfer dudes? And just what can they expect as reward?

When you read something from Mr. Malden, you might expect the unexpected. This book delivered. Jenna and Celeste need a paper to pass their college finals. With a bit of luck and some lusty men, they might have a chance to get that paper they desperately need. In true Jake Malden fashion, everything is NOT what it seems. :)

This is a deliciously wicked, erotic, short tale of what can happen when payback arrives for a certain lady. It is not nice, and it is not proper. It is brilliantly written and keeps you on your toes, or not...  LOL! This was a great, fun, fast, and sexy read.. and everything you might expect from a Jake Malden book. 


5 Stars for this sexy book

Until Next Time, Enjoy!

Unexpected Happiness







Book Description: Lady Rebecca didn’t expect to meet the future Duke of Stamford the day she was told she was to marry him, but that’s exactly what happened. Traveling alone, she determines the man is probably old and ugly and she will have nothing to do with this arrangement.

Sexy Lord Nathaniel is neither old nor ugly but he is no happier about the arrangement than Rebecca though he does find her alluring. Forced into the marriage by his grandfather, he can do nothing but accede to the old man’s wishes.

Rebecca has to curb her willful ways to function in her new position and her husband-to-be is more than willing to use a firm hand to discipline his lady, though doing so leaves them both wanting more.

Their inauspicious beginnings do not bode well but time shows them that often the heart follows where the body leads and they discover unexpected happiness in their union.

Inside Scoop: Grab a fan as light spanking scenes heat up the bedroom.
A Romantica® historical erotic romance from Ellora’s Cave



I received an Arc from the author in exchange for an honest review. 

When I received a copy of this story I was really (and I do mean REALLY) excited because it had the two genre's that I absolutely love. Historical Romance and Erotic Romance. This book had the best of both worlds. I was in complete book heaven; not to mention, the author is absolutely delightful, and an incredible writer! *insert happy sigh here* I always look forward to reading her work! 

Miss Rebecca gets shipped off to marry some Lord that she has never met and decides on her way there, that she will try to do everything to get out of it. Heaven knows, I would too! When she arrives at his home she is welcomed by the Lord's grandfather (one of my favorite characters in this book) and she thought she was right to try and get out of this marriage deal. That is, until she sees Nathaniel. Oh lord, he's one hot piece of man..

Nathaniel is NOT a happy camper when his grandfather tells him that he has arranged a marriage for him. But because he is the heir, he needs to have a wife. He does make it known to both his grandfather and Rebecca that even though he doesn't like the arrangement, he will go along with it, but he does try to distance himself from it and from her.... 

The marriage does happen, and you think everything will be alright, correct? Nope. Nathaniel is as distant as ever, and Rebecca sure knows how to vocalize it. Nathaniel, the devilish rogue that he is, has his way of making Rebecca "behave".  

There are a lot of other things going on in this book which I will not mention, because I do not want to give anything away. But the cast of characters are all charming and you feel like you want to get to know them, some more than others. I did have a love/hate (more love than hate) relationship with Nathaniel at times, but it all worked out in the end. Miss James' writing is like a breath of fresh air, not only in the eroticism department (which was nicely done), her witty dialog, but also in the tear jerking moments. There is a certain genuine warmth to the characters that had me sighing at certain times and wanting to rip my hair out with frustration in others. This is a great book for fans of both Historical Romance and Erotic Romance. I applaud the author for doing such a marvelous job! 

There is a character in the book who is remarkably charming, and pops up in a couple of scenes. I wonder if Miss James will write a book about him! I would love it. *hint, hint* :)


5 Stars for this wonderful book!
