Review: Wicked Innocence by Missy Johnson


 
Wicked Innocence
 
by
 
Missy Johnson



Don’t let my petite and innocent appearance fool you, because I’m one person you don’t want to cross. I’m Micah, the youngest member of Resurrection…If only they knew how young.

My fake ID says I’m twenty-one. And I will be…in four years.

What can I say? I blossomed early. Home sucked, so I left, determined to do something with my life.
Landing the gig as lead vocalist in the band was a dream come true. I’ve worked hard to make something of myself and nothing is going to ruin that for me.

Then He showed up. He’s hot as hell and so into me.

But he’s also twenty-five.

I don’t want to lie to him, but if the truth comes out I’ll lose everything, including him.

 

My 5 star review

 
Micah is a very young woman who has had a very crappy life. She had to grow up and take care of herself. Let’s just say that I am glad she got away. Her fake ID may say that she is twenty-one but she is really only seventeen. Her character is very mature for her age. Micah is very strong, beautiful, smart, sassy, funny, and very talented. Her whole world is about to turn upside down though when she lands the audition for Resurrection.

Saxton, Saxton, Saxton... I want you and I need you. This character right here is delicious, sexy, hot, and well just freaking HOT! He used to be a Rock God but now is a retired Rock God!! He made some bad choices and they eat him alive every day. Now he manages Resurrection, we can thank his uncle for that.

I was on edge the whole entire time while reading Wicked. I needed to know what was going to happen and how he was going to find out about Micah. Missy Johnson did one hell of a job with this book. I mean this book consumed my whole life! I couldn’t put it down until I was finished and once I was done, I messaged Missy and said I needed me some more SAXTON! LOL

This book is way more than a HOT ex-Rock God, this book is about love, forgiveness, and letting go and living again. I loved every part of this book and I am so happy that I got a chance to read this story. I have to say that the ending was very unexpected but freaking fabulous!!!

Missy Johnson, congrats girl on writing another fabulous and absolutely amazing story!! Everyone needs to go get them some Saxton now, I mean RIGHT NOW. Stop reading this and go get the book! Wicked by Missy Johnson will not disappoint you. NOW GO!! Start reading.

Cover Reveal: Destiny's Wings by D.S. Schmeckpeper



 
 
Cover Designed by EmCat Designs:
Release Date: September 19, 2014
Author: D.S. Schmeckpeper
Genre: Epic Fantasy

Synopsis: 
 
Celeste is tired. She just wants to be left alone.

For centuries, the half-blooded elf has hidden herself away from the world and lived in isolation. Things have been peaceful, quiet. But some have a greater calling, a destiny. When the humans unwittingly set about a plan to release the source of all evil back into the world, Celeste is called upon by an old ally to stop them, and to keep all of Altierra safe.

Now she must face her past as she and her allies travel across the continent to save a world she has been apart from for eons. Will even her angelic birthright and druidic powers be enough to stop the rise of the last god?

She never asked to be a hero.

Destiny can be funny that way.

Excerpt: 
 
Celeste moved her arms up and around Tarnelius’ neck, while his dropped to her waist. They deepened the kiss, their tongues exploring each other’s mouth and twisting together in an erotic tango. Tarnelius moaned into her mouth in pure rapture. She trembled from the sheer emotion of it all. She knew that if elves died when they had nothing more to live for, she and Tarnelius would live for an eternity because they had each other. This was truly their happily ever after.
He broke off the kiss and inched back, trying to catch his breath and running his hands up and down her body in a delicious caress. “Don’t stop,” she spoke inside his head. “Don’t ever stop.”
“Celeste, my angel. Don’t ask me that now. I will never be able to refuse you. Come on, I’m sure the others are spying on us out here, and I want our first time to be in private, not out here in the open where anyone could interrupt us.”
She leaned forward, offering her lips to him, pressing her body completely flush against his. He gave in and tried to give her only a brief kiss, but she reached up and tangled her hands into his golden hair, holding him against her. She moaned as she felt him straining against her and shivered as he caressed her wings.
He felt his control slipping as he kissed her with all the desperation of a starving man. They needed to get themselves under control or he would take her right there. When he felt her shiver he pulled back once more, running his hands again over her wings. She licked her lips and closed her eyes, breathing heavily. “Does that feel good, Angel?”
“Mmm,” she answered.

He gave her a devilish grin as he stroked her feathery wings. “I had no idea your wings were so sensitive. Come on, we need to get inside. We’ll have an eternity to get to know each other intimately, starting tonight. I promise I will always be exactly what you need, Celeste.”

Review: Freeing Her A.M. Hargrove

 

Freeing Her (A Hart Brothers Novel, Book 1)

• This novel contains mature content and it not intended for younger readers.

This is the beginning of a story... the story of two people who were meant to be together. Why? Because unknown to them, they shared terrifying pasts and the cruel circumstances of their births doomed both of them to a life of hell. Two strangers ... one night ... one accidental meeting that changed their lives forever.

Gabriella Martinelli, Manhattan psychiatrist had only one goal in life—to help abuse victims avoid the horrors she’d experienced herself. She worked late, volunteered, and donated her services to anyone who needed them. Life was good ... until her nightmare resurfaced. He found her, and began stalking her, and she knew he wouldn’t stop until he destroyed every ragged piece of her.

Kolson Hart, Manhattan’s most eligible bachelor, was ruled by his dark past. He liked control, from the boardroom to the bedroom and didn’t care to be involved with someone whose life was just as screwed up as his was. But one look at Gabriella short-circuited everything. Want ... desire ... need ... will sometimes drive a man to do things he swore he never would.He freed her from a life of fear ... When he couldn’t even save himself.

“I only ask for one promise and that’s honesty. Can you give me that?” she asked.
“Yeah. I can. But if you decide to take this leap with me, I must warn you that I have certain compulsions, if you will.”
“Compulsions?”
“Needs, compulsions, call them what you want. But you asked for honesty and I’m giving it to you.”
“I see. So what do these needs entail?”
“Right now, I’d like to blindfold you, bind your wrists in silk, paddle your sweet ass, and f**k you until your legs are so weak you couldn’t possibly walk, even if your life depended on it.”
 
 
 
My 5 star review
 
 
Gabriella Martinelli is a very powerful lead character. She has been through things that no one should ever have to go through. She lived in HELL for years and no one was there to save her. My heart broke for this character because I knew what this character went through too well. Gabriella made this book for me. She is powerful, strong, brave, and very inspiring. 
 
Kolson Hart, a very wealthy man, is sexy, hot, handsome, fierce, and I want him added to my list, for sure. In my opinion he screams dominance, but hey there is nothing wrong with that. BUT he has a past that we know nothing about. I am dying to know what that past is. He is my new lovely, hot mystery man.
 
Freeing Her is so superbly good, I had to take my kindle everywhere with me so I could finish it. Yes, it is that good. There are some twists in this book that even I didn’t see coming. But let me just say this, Danny got what was coming to him! I hated this character and I mean hated! When Gabriella and Kolson meet it is super cute that I couldn’t get enough of it. I like how they speak to one another. They are definitely on my cutest book couple list.
 
I will say this; I have a love/hate relationship with cliffhangers. And oh does this book have one, BUT don’t get all mad just yet. I have a feeling that book two will BLOW OUR MIND! I mean, when the book ended I was like “what the ****”, I needed to know what happens and needed to know right then and there!!!
Trust me when I say this, A.M. Hargrove did a freaking fantastic job writing this book.  I am so happy that I got a chance to read it before it came out. So thank you!!! I hate to admit this but Freeing Her was my first read from this author, however it will not be my last!!

Synopsis: 
 
I’m sick and tired of my boss, DeVon Ricci, screwing with me. He signed the guy I was seeing just so I couldn't date him, and now he fired an employee who’d insulted me.
If he wasn't expecting me to flirt with every top Hollywood executive to help him close deals, I might have thought he felt something for me.
The problem is, as angry as he makes me, I can't stop thinking about him. There is only one way I know to get him out of my mind. I have to f**k him.
The CEO of Mirage Talent, DeVon Ricci needs to be in control, but ever since Krissy Jensen walked into his company, he's found his control slipping. He knows what he needs to do to get it back again, but the more time he spends with her, the less he's sure he'll be able to follow through.
When two passionate, headstrong people finally crash together, they can't help but ignite. The question is, will either of them be able to walk away unburned?

Release Day: Saving my Submission by Jenna Jacob




Synopsis:

I never intended Joshua Lars, the sexy-as-sin sculptor to be more than a one-night stand. How was I to know his masterful hands and dominant command would wake the sleeping submissive within me?
Any of my friends would have said that Mellie Carson was an independent, successful woman who would never kneel for a man. I’d already chalked my one foray into surrendering my control up to naïve stupidity. I was far too smart now to do it again—or so I thought.
Then came Joshua… Determined to resist his powerful draw, I tried to forget him, but Fate—and a killer—had other plans. Now, in Joshua’s arms, I might be safe, but I fear my heart isn’t. Can he save my life while saving my submission?

Review: Broken Road by Addison Kline




Broken Road (Breaking Black Book 2)

By

Addison Kline

 

It is often said that time heals all wounds. The words are spoken like a promise... A vow. These words are said to people who have been beaten down to their lowest state. To the poor souls who have nothing left to lose. Whispered into the ear of a grieving daughter, told with a shrug to a man who has nothing left to live for.

These are dangerous people.

The down-trodden. The grieving. The ones who love more people dead than alive.

The words should never be uttered. Not to the ones who have no solid ground on which to stand upon, no rail in which to clasp. The white-knuckled moments of life have come to be expected rather than feared.

"Time heals all wounds."

The words are an insult. A slap in the face... and around here, they'll get you hurt. For Averi McClain and her husband Colt, there were few deeper insults.

In the wake of Black Horse's death, a war has erupted. The Seventy Devils are scattered and on alert, gnawing at the bit for the go-ahead to strike. They would not hesitate to spill the blood of anyone who stood in their way of recompense. They knew they would need to act fast if they wanted to come out on top. Colt was not the kind of guy that you slept on. He'd stop at nothing to protect his family and he was lethal whether he was heavily armed or going toe to toe, bare knuckled beat-down style. Colt did have Black Horse's blood coursing through his veins, after all. But then, so did Jimmy, and he is ready to show everyone that the apple didn't fall far from the tree... in fact, they appear to have formed on the same poisoned branch.

As leader of the Devils, Jimmy had seventy miscreants to do his bidding - and three goals in which he needed to achieve:

1. Avenge Black Horse
2. Kill Colt McClain and Randy Ford
3. Take Averi for his own

Jimmy has another thing coming if he thinks victory is easily won. Will Colt and Averi's broken road end in tragedy? Or will they be the ones to banish the devils straight to hell? When the demons of the past rise up, can Colt and Randy face them fearless and determined? Whatever happens, don't expect Colt and Randy to stand alone. Buckle up. The broken road makes for one hell of a ride.

 

My 5 star review

I got the pleasure of reading this book while it was being written. It was awesome because I got to re-read the book every time I received a new chapter. Thank you Ms. Kline, for wanting me to read your work!!

Averi McClain is still a feisty, I take no shit from anyone woman. She is married to Colt and pregnant with their first child. This couple has been through so much that could tear most apart and amazingly enough they are still standing by each other’s side. I think of these two as my power book couple, because they are just that.

Addison Kline then decided to throw more characters into this story and I am so glad she did. I actually emailed her and told her that I am in love with Averi’s brothers Randy and Tim. I will always love Colt, but well, he is married now and I am no home wrecker. LOL

Now I love Averi and Colt, but what got all of my attention were Cheyenne and Randy. They were high school sweethearts and then BOOM! …. Nothing. I felt so bad for Cheyenne in this book. I wanted to slap Randy and make him pick up his damn phone. Making that woman call hundreds of times before getting a hold of you is nonsense and YES… people really do that too. I am one of them! Hey, when you love and need that person you don’t give up. Now that I feel is love.

Now there are a lot of things going on in this book, but I promise you will love it all. You will want to jump up and scream and whoop on some of them, but overall you will love this book. Addison Kline, I loved the first book but, my god, woman you nailed this second book. Now I am ready to start reading the third. *Hint, Hint*
