The Exhibitionist is a sexy, tempting and titillating journey into a couple living the BDSM lifestyle.
Tara Sue Me gives the reader chills of desire as we watch Abby and Nathaniel on a journey  exhibiting love, trust and exquisite bliss. Watching this married couple live their lives and keep their passion and changing kinks alive is an excellent example of highly sexual, tasteful, erotic romance.  Abby and Nathaniel heat you up, leave you hanging on the edge and deliver it damn good.
The Exhibitionist is my first read by Tara Sue Me. With her deeply detailed, emotional and give you the good chills writing, it will surely not be my last. Any fan of BDSM romance should read this book.

Club Sin Series, Book 7

Pub Date Oct 27, 2015

Random House Publishing Group – Loveswept

 

Dmitri and Presley—the scorching-hot couple who started it all in Claimed—return to save Club Sin in the exhilarating new short novel from USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy.

Dmitri Pratt is living out his dream. Not only does he own the ultimate playground for the BDSM lifestyle, he’s found a special connection with his deliciously sexy sub, Presley Flynn, the woman who complements him in ways that go far beyond the bedroom. But when an anonymous blackmailer threatens to expose the elite, high-profile members of Club Sin in a notorious tabloid, Dmitri’s perfect world spirals out of control.

Before she met Dmitri, Presley never imagined she would find a Master who could deliver on all her hottest fantasies. Dmitri’s love and his sensual artistry surprise her every day, until he suddenly turns distant and cold. For the first time, Presley wonders where Dmitri’s heart truly lies: with her, or with Club Sin. As the life they’ve built together begins to crumble, Presley can only trust that Dmitri has what it takes—to defend what’s his, and win back the woman he cannot live without.

Mine is intended for mature audiences.

Stacey Kennedy concludes the Club Sin series with an emotional and sexy tale that will leave the reader satisfied as any good Dom would.

Presley and Dimitri hit a snag in their relationship as trouble falls upon Club Sin’s doorstep. Emotions fly and trust is tested as control slips from the Masters hands. Watching Dimitri struggle was something of a surprise. He discovered a new side of himself that makes him a better man. Presley has grown so much since meeting her in Claimed. Confident and strong, she stands up for herself, even to her Dom. Bringing out a new woman within herself. One you have to smile at and be proud of.

An exceptional finish to a fabulous series. Stacey Kennedy gave her readers an amazing look at the many sides of BDSM. Tasteful with real and raw emotions. It’s only right that the couple that started this memorable series, Dimitri and Presley, be the ones to finish it.

Pandora’s Playground, Book 1

Kindle Edition, 70 pages
Expected publication: August 13th 2015 by Alyn Publishing

 

She’s his heaven and his hell…

Muriel Stewart has spent the past year grieving the loss of her husband. Now that time has passed, her inner submissive demands Muriel find a new relationship to fulfill her need to love and serve. But there’s only one man who makes Muriel yearn for the intimate Dom/submissive connection the way her husband did, and that’s his best friend, Mathew Galinda … a man who can barely tolerate being in her presence.

Matthew Galinda buried his own heart and needs the day Muriel Stewart married his best friend and business partner. He’s spent the last eleven years keeping Muriel at a distance, tortured by his love for a woman he could never have, and filled with shame for coveting what wasn’t and would never be his. Not even his best friend’s unexpected death could change that fact. Until Muriel decides she’s ready for a new Dom and she wants Matthew to fill that role.

Having Muriel in his life is all Mathew has ever wanted. She’s his heaven and his hell, and could be his salvation if he can get beyond his past, his shame, and the guilt he feels for not having saved Ian’s life.

Sexy and Sensual. Pandora’s Playground awakens passion.

Loss and longing have been plaguing Muriel since the passing of her husband nearly a year ago. Not only losing her husband but her bonded Dom. Giving in to loneliness and need Muriel puts her anxiety and fear to the side and accepts an invitation to reopen a part of who she was.

Matthew has been in love with his best friends woman the moment he laid eyes on her. Never acting, always longing. When Ian passed away about a year ago, he’s guard dropped for a moment and the want increased. When a mutual friend includes Mathew in a plan to bring Muriel back to her world, it flight or fight for everything he’s ever wanted and needed.

Alannah Lynne has spared no emotions from the sensual and erotic story of Coveted. Overcoming loss and learning to move on is one of the greatest challenges in life.  Muriel and Matthew have a unique situation that unfold before them. Learning to let go, overcome the grief, putting the fear aside and giving into yourself makes for some steamy romance.  A tastefully kinky story with a lot of heart.

Blurb:

Lawyers know when to play by the rules…and when to break them.

Harvard law professor Jack Archer once balanced his professional life with the private world of dominance, surrender, and trust he shared with his wife. Since cancer stole her a year ago, finding love again—her final wish for him—is the furthest thing from his mind. From his empty house to the classroom, grief follows his every move. Until he meets a young woman with shadows in her eyes even darker than his own.

Once a shining star at law school, Lilly Sterling’s dreams died when the Dom she trusted left her heartbroken and lost. She’s starting fresh in a new city as a paralegal, but meeting Jack reawakens all her old demons—and her lingering desires.

Jack offers to become Lilly’s mentor for both the courtroom and the playroom, but tells himself it’s not a relationship. Their carefully worded contract guarantees that. But when their trial agreement starts heating up, both Jack and Lilly must decide what will tip the scales: the letter of the law…or love?

Warning: All rise for a book that contains a wounded submissive and a Dominant who wants to retrain her while retaining control of his heart. Discovery phase may involve spankings, bondage, edging, and blindfolds. Is it hot? You be the judge.

History makes the passion more intense!

Erika Wilde blew me away with this one. Paige and Sawyer’s chemistry and passion are natural, powerful and explosive. The want, need, intensity and history of the couple makes the story all the more sexy!  Fighting pain and feelings that never faded, while lust burns the pages.  Ms. Wilde gave the readers a hot flippin’ book!  Impressing this reader with not just the pleasurable side of BDSM, revealing a bit of psychological side as well.  Seeing into both Paige and Sawyer’s heads was a an added bonus to this read!

Stacey Kennedy makes me shiver!

 

Sawyer is hot, sexy, dirty talking, Alpha Dom and cop. He’s looking for more than just a good time.  He wants love.  Chloe is sweet, innocent and very vanilla PI. A woman who can stand her ground and go toe to toe with the best of them.

The sixth installment of the Club Sin series is a little different from the previous in the series. Showing another side of the passion that lies within the realm of BDSM.  The chemistry is through the roof in Commanded. Chloe and Sawyer have an instant connection. Their personalities complement each other making the passion more intense.  Sawyer opens a door to a world that overwhelms Chloe. Both good and bad. Leaving what could be real love hanging in the balance.

Review: Matter of Time by Alannah Lynne

Mater of time

Matter of Time

Alannah Lynne

Heat Wave Series, Book 5

Published April 21st 2015 by Alannah Lynne

 

 

Some might think the phrase, “you complete me” is a just cheesy line from the movies, but Lizbeth Sanders knows better…

In MATTER OF TIME, Lizbeth has spent the past fifteen years desperately searching for someone to fill the void left by Logan Steele’s disappearance from her life. However, rather than finding love and happiness, all she’s found is disappointment, heartache, and an ever-present longing for the man she can never have.

Fifteen years ago, Logan Steele left the woman he loved to marry his high school sweetheart and be a father to the child he didn’t know he had. He’s always tried to do the honorable thing, to be a good husband and a great father, but despite his sacrifices and best efforts, the shaky foundation of his marriage crumbles and falls apart.

When his identical twin surprises him with a reintroduction to Lizbeth, Logan feels like he’s been given a second chance—at life and love. But a lot can change in fifteen years, and after hurting her so badly the first time, building trust isn’t just hard, it’s nearly impossible—especially when duty and obligation pulls him away again.

Logan is one of the most admirable men I have read in a long time. Severing ties and breaking his own heart, to do in his mind and most people’s eyes the right and proper thing to do.  Fifteen years later, Logan’s world has changed but his heart and soul are still with the woman he walked away from.  He’s determined to show her that he is where she belongs.

 

Lizbeth gave part of herself away fifteen years ago and never got it back. Holding every man to this day in comparison to the one that had to walk away. She has made a life for herself, however it’s been a lonely one.  A chance encounter, a set up, and club of exotic desires putting Lizbeth’s fantasies right before her eyes.

 

Logan and Lizbeth’s chemistry will leave you smokin in Matter of Time. Rekindling love is not the proper term for this story. It’s more like reuniting of soulmates.  Two people leaving such an impact on one another that they have carried pieces of other since parting.  Never feeling whole.  Ms. Lynne somehow put all those complex feeling into words.  Creating a story with fun and likable characters, lust spanning years, love deeper than words can express, and a few moments that make you think.

 

Matter of Time is my first read my Alannah Lynne will not be my last.

Ms. Bristol’s Picture Her Bound gives the reader a taste of the beautiful intensity of BDSM.

A raw passion entwined with naughty desire.  Odalia and Jacques have chemistry off thecharts.  Each unique in their own right however neither was like your typical dominant/submissive.  Personalities complementing each other in the most natural way on a deeperlevel from the start.  A beautiful display of BDSM with a little suspense make this short read pack a sexy punch.

Picture Her Bound is my first Sidney Bristol read.  What was I waiting for???

Great characters, good story line and HOT!  I love New Orleans, Ms. Bristol made me feel like I was right there while read.   A high compliment!
