About Tessa Bailey:

10929005_328734870648822_8403984229136741124_nTessa Bailey is originally from Carlsbad, California. The day after high school graduation, she packed her yearbook, ripped jeans and laptop, driving cross-country to New York City in under four days.

Inside those four walls, she met her husband, best friend and discovered the magic of classic rock, managing to put herself through Kingsborough Community College and the English program at Pace University at the same time. Several stunted attempts to enter the work force as a journalist followed, but romance writing continued to demand her attention.

ARC Review: Rogue by Patricia Rasey

rougeRogue

Patricia Rasey

Sons of Sangue Series, Book 4

E- Book

Self Published: February 23, 2016

 

 

Vampire MC member Anton “Rogue” Balan, aka Blondy, has turned his back on the powerful Sons of Sangue, betraying the brotherhood he once considered his family. Or so his vampire brethren think. Changing his appearance, his persona, and signing up with rival gang, the Devils, Rogue has gone deep undercover to catch the La Paz Cartel’s kingpin. Having lost a woman he once thought he would spend eternity with, Rogue now feels he has nothing left to lose . . . that is until a temptation named Kimber James invades his dangerous world.

Strait-laced Kimber has a problem and his name is Anton Balan. After an impulsive night of passion with him more than a year ago, the small-town librarian still has the hots for the sexy biker next door. She can’t deny her desire for Anton, even though she suspects he’s hiding a secret even darker than his affiliation with an outlaw MC. As for Rogue, no matter how much he tries to refuse the scorching need he has for Kimber—as much as his duty depends on it—he’s powerless to deny his rising feelings for her. And when a blindside by an enemy he once trusted puts Kimber’s life at risk, Rogue’s tarnished honor is put to the ultimate test.

 

 

review

 

5 Stars

Anton “Rogue” Balan, also known as Blondie, has just become my new favorite of the Son. The sweet Alpha vampire, as I like to call him, is as sexy and build as the Road King he rides.  Sweet, kind and caring Anton makes you melt in more ways than one. Don’t let that fool you, the man can take you faster than the blink of an eye. Internal struggles, mimicking betrayal and longing have changed Anton. Even in what could be called his darkest hour his loyalty, devotion, and selflessness never waver from his true home.

 

Kimber is a girl next door type with personally and spunk. Putting her in a class all her own. A good and sweet woman who can stand her ground. Kimber is as straight laced as they come, however she does have this sultry and playful side that you don’t see on the surface.  She’s a fun and extremely likable character.

 

Patricia Rasey’s fourth installment of the Son of Sangue series, Rogue, has just become my favorite of the series.  Sorry Gypsy!  Anton has upped the game!  Action pack and emotionally driven, Patricia Rasey once again has readers hanging on for dear life while going at breakneck speeds. The stench of betrayal thickens the air, danger is to close to home, secrets unfold as the bonds of Brotherhood are tested to the core.  Chemistry, compassion, passion and lust have infused a desire for things that should not be. Making wants and needs walk a fine line in the Sons dangerous world. And that’s just the beginning. Sexual tension, suspense and extreme loyalty make the foundation for a fast paced story with a twisty plot that pull you in and keeps the pages turning to the wee hours of the morning.  Fantastic storytelling with the perfect balance of romance and suspense, Ms. Rasey delivers a damn fine book.

 

As a huge fan of the Sons of Sangue series, I recommend that you read the stories in order to fully benefit the this amazing world she has created.  Rogue is a highly recommended book as is the entire Sons of Sangue series.

Excerpt:

 

“You shouldn’t come here, Kimber. Ever. Do I make myself clear?”

With a roll of her eyes, she snorted. “This isn’t exactly my scene, Anton. Murphy’s Tavern is more my

speed.”

“Good, then I’ll escort you over to that bar.”

Anton reached for her, but she took a step back. Lord, she didn’t need the extra stimulation his touch

caused. Just being in the same room with him had her naughty parts humming with unrequited desire.

Even angry he was all sorts of sexy. Kimber shifted her stance, trying to alleviate the ache centered in

the V of her thighs.

“I’m with a friend.”

“Wolf or Xander?” he all but growled.

“Who?” Her voice rose, having had about enough of his surly attitude. He should be thanking her from

stopping the beating he was about to receive from those two buffoons.

“The two idiots at the bar you were cozying up to.”

“Lord, you’re either blind or stupid.” She ran a hand through her hair in frustration. What the hell did

she see in him? Plenty, her overactive brain reminded her. “I’m here with a coworker. She was on the

dance floor and I was about to order a drink.”

“You in the habit of letting strange men paw you?”

Oh, he so overstepped his boundaries. Her ire shot to the metal roof. “Not since you. I guess I should

thank you for curing me.”

Kimber thought she heard a slight chuckle, but the look on his face didn’t give way to any traces of

humor. “Just in case you might be wondering, I’m a much better fuck than Wolf.”

“The guy with the roaming hands? And you would know this because…” She let it hang in hopes he’d

elaborate. This ought to be good. She’d be damned before she’d feed his ego, even if he no doubt was

better in bed.

“You see any women hanging around Wolf before you arrived at the bar?”

“No, but that doesn’t mean anything. The night is early. He has plenty of time to pick up a date.”

“Looked to me like he was heading in that direction before I opened the door.”

“What about the woman you had in here with you?” Her forefinger indicated the orange sofa in the

corner. “I suppose you were offering her your services on that ugly couch.”

“As I recall, you didn’t complain about my servicing you.”

Her face heated, no sense in pretending he was wrong. The regret was that he’d turned into a Grade A

ass afterward and she hadn’t gotten a second sampling. “I had no complaints.”

ARC Review: Rescuing Rayne by Susan Stoker

rayneRescuing Rayne

Susan Stoker

Delta Force Heroes, Book 1

Kindle Edition, 414 pages
Published February 9th 2016

 

 

As a flight attendant, Rayne Jackson is used to cancellations, but she never dreamed her latest would lead to a whirlwind tour of London with a handsome stranger…or a life-altering night in his bed. One evening is all the enigmatic man can give her, and Rayne greedily takes it, despite suspecting it will never be enough.

Heading home after another extreme mission, Keane “Ghost” Bryson hadn’t planned to seduce someone during his layover, but Rayne is too sweet to resist. Being a Delta Force member means lying to protect his identity, which is unfortunate, considering Rayne seems made for Ghost, right down to the tattoo on her back. For the first time in his life, regret fills him as he slips away the following morning.

Both are shocked when, months later, they meet again—under the worst possible circumstances. Seems fate has given them a second chance…if they can survive the terrorist situation they’re in. If Rayne can forgive Ghost his lies. And if Ghost can trust Rayne to be strong enough to endure the secrets and uncertainty that come with loving a Delta Force soldier.

** Rescuing Rayne is the 1st book in the Delta Force Heroes Series. Each book is a stand-alone, with no cliffhanger endings.

 

 

 

review

 

4 Stars

 

Ghost is one of those Alpha men you can’t help but to enjoy his presence , even if he’s stubborn and hard headed. The man is walking sex. He’s loyal, a leader and true brother. Humor and passion make Ghost a man to hold on tight to.

 

Rayne seems to always have some kind of excitement going on. Never a boring moment with her. She’s a strong, confident and witty woman. Her humor and awesome come back will leave a smile on your face while reading.

 

Susan Stoker once again captivates readers with damn fine writing, well developed characters, and a plot that keeps you going. Rescuing Rayne is a romance, laced edge of your seat read, that you don’t see coming.  A excellent balance of suspense and passion. Ms. Stoker starts the Delta Force Heroes series with a bang.

Robin Covington

A MacKenzie Family Novel

Kindle Edition
Published February 16th 2016 by Evil Eye Concepts, Incorporated

 

 

 

From Liliana Hart’s New York Times bestselling MacKenzie family comes a new story by USA Today bestselling author Robin Covington…

Atticus Rush doesn’t really like people. Years in Special Ops and law enforcement showed him the worst of humanity, making his mountain hideaway the ideal place to live. But when his colleagues at MacKenzie Security need him to save the kidnapped young daughter of a U.S. Senator, he’ll do it, even if it means working with the woman who broke his heart …his ex-wife.

Lady Olivia Rutledge-Cairn likes to steal things. Raised with a silver spoon and the glass slipper she spent years cultivating a cadre of acquaintances in the highest places. She parlayed her natural gift for theft into a career of locating and illegally retrieving hard-to-find items of value for the ridiculously wealthy. Rush was the one man who tempted her to change her ways…until he caught her and threatened to turn her in.

MacKenzie Security has vowed to save the girl. Olivia can find anything or anyone. Rush can get anyone out. As the clock winds down on the girl’s life, can they fight the past, a ruthless madman and their explosive passion to get the job done?

 

 

review

 

5 Stars

 

 

Atticus Rush is a jaded, ex special forces turned mercenary and security contractor.  Hes is a hard, take no prisoners, push you to the edge type of man. All alpha and is able to get what he wants, how he want it. A man not to be messed with. His personal demons weigh heavily on his psyche. His exquisite body, quick tongue and no nonsense ways leave readers in thrall of Atticus.

 

Olivia -Livvy- Rutledge-Cairn is one kick ass lady.  Born a princess Livvy found within herself a skill set make her a Master Thief. There is nothing this woman can’t track down and fine. She’s as beautiful and sexy as she is cunning and dangerous. This sensual woman can more than handle herself.

 

Robin Covington’s contribution to the MacKenzie family will have your pulse racing and breathless with desire.  Livvy and Atticus have a history with some up and down and ton of combustible chemistry.  A tortured, broken hero and woman that’s just as strong as he is. Both alphas and commanding in their own right.  And both get to each other like no other.

 

Rush is a fast paced novella that hit you in all the right spots. Action, suspense, and intense passion. Robin Covington gave readers an intense hit to the romance pallets with Rush!

He’s loved me since the day I was born.

He’s taken care of me.
He’s awakened me.

Tor. My father’s best friend. My Godfather.

The one chosen to protect me. The one I should never, ever want.

She’s always loved me.

She’s shattered me.
She’s healed me.

Kenzi. My best friend’s daughter. The little girl that called me Uncle.

She’s forbidden to me. But she gets me.

We’re slowly being torn apart by everything we love.

Everything we want. Everything we desire.

I know it’s wrong.

but I need to make her
mine
Excerpt

Prologue Kenzi one day old, Toren fifteen years old…

“We want you to be her Godfather,” Asher says as he gently lays his newborn baby into my arms. I have to tear my gaze away from her incredible green eyes to look up at him from the chair I’m cradling the baby in.

“Me?” I glance quickly over at Ember in the hospital bed, who beams back at me with a tired, yet genuine smile.

“Yes, you,” they both say at the same time. “If it wasn’t for you, we probably never would have met,” Ember adds, grabbing Asher’s hand. “And we wouldn’t have this beautiful little baby. We know you’ll always protect her.”

“That’s right, man. You’re Uncle Tor now.”

I’m an uncle. And my two best friends are parents. And we’re all fuckin’ under sixteen.

But Kenzi Allyster Valentine would change us all forever. She needed us.

“Wow. I’m honored, guys. No doubt, I’ll always be here for her.”

I kick back the pang that hits my stomach. I didn’t get the girl…but I got something I never expected. A gift in the form of a little tiny hand wrapped tightly around my finger, huge eyes like jade gems staring up into mine like I was the most amazing person in the friggen’ world, and the first glimpse of a heart-stopping smile.

That was it.
She owned me.
My niece.
My god-daughter.

The love of my life.

She might be above me in every way, but I still want her under me.

I’ve got no business touching her rich-girl skin, but that won’t stop me from stealing a taste. Because rules were meant to be broken—especially when the prize is so fine.

Tara Sue Me’s New York Times bestselling Submissive series continues with a delicious

new story that explores the thin line between pleasure and pain. . . .

She’s ready to try again. . . .

Sasha Blake is scarred from a BDSM session gone wrong, but she can’t deny how much a strong Master

turns her on. Determined to overcome her fears and rejoin the Partners in Play community, she asks

Abby and Nathaniel West to set her up with a Dom who can help her feel safe again as a sub. They know

the very experienced Cole is exactly the kind of man who can push all of Sasha’s buttons—and she soon

wants to go much faster than she had planned. . . .

Cole knows that Sasha is not the kind of submissive he needs. He wants someone who will serve him 24-

7, not a part-time partner. Still, the further they go into their play, the more Cole begins to wish he could

make Sasha his all the time. . . .

When forbidden desires turn into scorching action, Sasha and Cole come face-to-face with their

demons—and realize their scorching relationship might be too dangerous to last. . . .

 

review

 

 

4.5 Stars

 

Sasha has experienced the worst type of nightmare a submissive could have. Trust was broken, causing lingering scars on the inside and out.  As Sasha begins to move forward in her healing process, she realizes that denying herself a major part of herself she can never truly heal. Sasha’s a brave and powerful woman. She knows herself and what she wants. The want to overcome an indecent that broke her, makes her a stronger woman than she even realized. Seeing Sasha rediscover who and what she is and learning to trust again is a beautiful and sexy story.

 

Cole is a true master in every sense of the word. Strong, dominant, commanding and demanding. A truly intense Alpha man.  Cole is given the task of retraining a broken submissive. Having the reputation of being cold and hard, the discovery of a soft, tender side of the man always in control allows the reader truly experience Cole the way he was meant to be!  OMG, Cole will make panties melt.

 

Sasha and Cole are an unlikely couple who can’t deny they set each other off like no one else.  Cole set the tone as Sasha begins breaks out of the shell of mind.  As trust forms, the rules changes, wants and needs are no longer the same. The game is no more now that hearts are on the line.

 

Intense, deep and highly erotic!  Tara Sue Me cuts to the soul with the emotional and mental seduction that is The Master.

During a lull in the conversation, he leaned forward and lowered his voice. “There’s a play party

next weekend.”

She froze and he could see her process his words and their meaning before she relaxed. “Yes.”

“Good job, Sasha. You did what I told you to do earlier, didn’t you?” She’d remembered he

wouldn’t touch her without telling her where and how.

“Yes, Sir.”

He nodded. “A fast learner. I like that. I would like for you to attend the party with me.”

He paused, gauging her reaction. Her cheeks were flushed with excitement. “I would like that,”

she said.

“Since the party will be held at Master Greene’s house and I don’t know if he has granite

countertops, I won’t have you wear the black lingerie.”

Her voice was calm when she asked, “What will you have me wear, Sir?”

“I’ll have it sent to you this week.” Let her think about it for a while.

“I look forward to it.”

“We won’t formally participate in any scenes, but you will serve as my submissive.”

Her lips parted and she nodded. “Yes, Sir.”

“Master Greene has asked me if he can apologize for Peter’s actions.” He watched her carefully,

looking for any hint of panic.

“Will Peter be there?” she asked quietly.

“No, in fact I understand that as a result of the phone call, there’s to be a meeting to determine

if he should be allowed to remain in the group.”

Her eyes widened in shock. She hadn’t heard that. He was surprised Julie hadn’t told her, but

then again, Daniel might not have told Julie.

She straightened her shoulders. “In that case, I’m good with Master Greene apologizing.”

“That’s what I told him, but I also said I wanted to check with you

She nodded, but then her gaze grew distant and she looked over his shoulder.

“Everything okay?” he asked. “Are you having second thoughts?”

She slowly returned her focus to him. “No, I’m just thinking about Peter. Now that I can think

about him and not risk an episode, I often find myself wondering if I missed something, some sign.”

“I understand why you’d do that, but your time would be better spent asking yourself what

qualities you’re looking for in a Dom.” He reached into his pocket and took a twenty dollar bill out. “Do

you know how they train people to recognize counterfeit money?”

Her forehead wrinkled and she frowned in puzzlement. “Sir?”

He passed her the twenty. “They don’t give them the counterfeit bills to study. They only touch

and hold the real thing. They become so accustomed to the real money that they immediately recognize

the fraud.”

“I’m not sure I understand what you’re trying to say, Sir.”

“Focus on what you want from a Dom, how you want him to treat you. Think through the

characteristics of a Dom you’d like to play with. That way when you meet someone and you get to know

him, you’ll recognize if he’s a fraud or not.”

She nodded.

“To make sure you understand, I want you to make a list of your top ten requirements from a

Dom. We’ll go over it next time we meet.”

Her gaze grew wistful again, but she smiled and replied with a soft, “Yes, Sir.”

Adult Excerpt

Breezy couldn’t believe her ears. Xan was saying everything she’d ever wanted to hear.

Could she believe him? What if he changed his mind? Wolves mated for life she reassured

herself, except in her parent’s case, she didn’t know of any other wolves who separated. She took

a deep breath and nodded.

“Say it,” he demanded.

“You’re my mate, Xan.”

He bent and kissed her, a sweet so unlike Xan kiss, she felt tears well again. “See, that

wasn’t so hard. Was it?” His thumbs brushed away her tears.

She smiled. “You really can be sweet.”

His hands reached for her ribs and began tickling. “Take it back. I am a big, bad ass

His teasing was a surprise, endearing him to her even more. “You’re that, too. So, when

does this debauchery begin?”

Her words had him going stone still. “We don’t need to do it now. I can wait a day or two.”

She threw her head back and laughed. “I’ve waited twenty-seven years. I think I’ve wanted

you since I knew what it meant to want a man. There’s no reason to wait, unless you’re not up

for the task.” She looked pointedly down at his lap. The large erection evident. Thankfully she

was a nurse and knew he would fit, even though he looked like he’d stuffed a third arm down his

“Woman, you truly are a bad girl. Damn, I’m a lucky bastard.” He lifted them both in one

motion from their seated position in the recliner, her arms went around his neck making him

realize she trusted him with her safety.

“Hmm, I think I might be the lucky one.” She traced his lips with her tongue, making him

A swat on her ass had her yelping. “That’s one. I owe you nineteen more.”

The sting his slap caused didn’t hurt, but she tensed the entire walk to his room, until he

kicked the door shut. “Xan, I’m not into spankings and stuff.” With her arms around his neck,

her legs locked around his waist, she explained about her childhood, and the beatings she’d

endured on a regular basis from her mother. By the time she finished, minutes had passed, and

Xan maneuvered them onto the big bed.

“Oh, honey, your mother needs to be strung up by her fingers and have her eyes plucked out

one by one. That’s just for starters. I’d like to…” She stopped his tirade with a kiss. His

vehemence on her behalf was endearing, but she didn’t want anyone else in their bedroom.

“I only told you so you’d understand where I’m at. I don’t know if I can be what you want.

If you want to stop before we start, I’ll understand.” It would kill her, especially if he chose, or

when he chose another. She’d have to leave the pack, but that would be better than knowing she

couldn’t be what he needed.

“Your mother has no place here with you and me. We will do only what feels good for the

both of us. However, I will spank your ass if you put yourself in danger.” He growled.

She swallowed but nodded. “I’ll do the same to you.”

He laughed. “Good luck with that.”

He twisted their bodies so she lay under him. “Now, where were we?” As his head bent and

his mouth covered hers, she forgot about everything except how much she wanted him.

One big hand skimmed up her side, slipping beneath her borrowed T-shirt. Her stomach

muscles jumped under his touch. Her nipples beaded, begging for his attention, which he quickly

gave as his nimble fingers found one hardened tip, pinching it between his thumb and forefinger.

She pressed her pussy up against the thigh he’d inserted between her legs, and clutched at

his back. “Don’t stop, oh god.”

He moved his thigh a little faster, pinched his fingers and kissed her at the same time. She

cried out, coming on a scream, but feeling empty.

Breezy sucked in a deep breath, needing to feel him inside her. Her hands worked at the

waistband of his sweats, but he stopped her. “Slow down.”

“Fuck that. I want you in me.”

He chuckled. “You’ll have me. I want you so damn much I hurt, but let’s make sure you’re

Xan lifted up and she stared at his face, amazed at the control he had. He straddled her legs,

keeping her from moving and frustration ate at her. “What the hell?”

The diabolical man laughed. “Ssh. I’ll take care of you.” He whisked the shirt over her head,

staring down at her breasts, then he bent and licked one then the other tip. “Fucking beautiful.”

He pushed her breasts together and buried his face between them. “One day I’ll slide my dick

between these, and fuck you here while you lick the tip till I come.”

She moaned. “You’re going to make me a nympho.”

“That’s my girl.” He continued to kiss and lick her in little nips, moving down her stomach.

Breezy watched his blond hair pause by her belly button, his tongue swirl around the little

indent as his hands tucked into the leggings. “Lift up.”

She helped him shove her borrowed pants down and watched as they sailed over the side of

the bed. His big hands lifted her legs, and spread her for his broad shoulders. Uncaring that the

lights in the room were on and he could see every single imperfect ounce of her body, Breezy

fell back on the bed, moaning at the first touch of his tongue on her.

He hummed, his hands holding her open while his lips, teeth and tongue brought her to

another climax within minutes. Breezy wasn’t sure if it was normal to come so quickly, but she

squeezed her eyes shut, clutched the bedding below her and bit her lip instead of screaming out

“I want to hear you. Feel you when you come.” Xan grabbed her hand and put it in his hair.

His eyes glowed up at her almost feral in their expression.

He used the flat of his tongue, becoming more aggressive. She stroked her fingers through

his hair, enjoying the silky texture, sure she couldn’t come again, when he pushed a finger inside

She closed her eyes, the feel of the thick digit working in and out new, yet an added

pleasure. Her thighs gripped him, and she pushed up against his face. Another finger entered her,

his speed increased, and then he was licking and sucking her clit with more vigor. He wiggled

his tongue, the raspy texture and rougher caress drove her mindlessly closer to a third climax.

She panted, and cried out his name, one hand fisting in his hair, the other digging into his

“Oh, yes. Xan, right there. Harder.”

Xan eased out from between her legs, licking his fingers. “You taste delicious. I think I will

make a meal of you morning, noon and night.”

“We will never get anything done, and we have jobs to do.” She reminded him.

“Fine, then breakfast and dinner.” He kissed her stomach, then stood and tossed his pants to

He surprised her when he crawled on top of her, holding his weight off of her with his

strength. “You realize once we do this you’re mine forever. Actually, you’re already mine, so

there is no going back. I’m going to mark you and hope like fuck you plan to mark me.”

Breezy looked up at him. “I’m going to mark you so big nobody will be able to miss it,

Xander Fucking Carmichael.”

He laughed. “Does that make you Breezy Fucking Carmichael?”

“I’ll get that tattooed on my ass for you.”
