Whether it’s fast cars or fast women, Stefano Ferraro gets what he wants. When he’s not fodder for the paparazzi, he commands Ferraro family businesses—both legitimate and illegitimate.

While their criminal activity is simply a rumor yet to be proven, no one knows the real truth. The Ferraros are a family of shadow riders capable of manipulating light and dark, an ability Stefano thought ran in his family alone—until now…

With little left to her name, Francesca Cappello has come to Chicago in hopes of a new life. She wasn’t expecting to attract the attention of a man with primal hunger in his eyes, driven to claim her as his to protect and to please. And if he discovers her secret, it could ruin her…

Ms. Feehan is well known for her strong, alpha and commanding heroes but the bar is raised and boundaries pushed with her new Shadow Riders series. These guys are contemporary movers and shakers; they’re coarse, hard-hitting, hard playing and they have a few kinks that heroes in her other series don’t embrace. These men are as un-PC as you can get, and I loved every minute spent with them between the pages of Shadow Rider.

This pill regularly gets excellent reviews from patients reporting continual success during intercourse.Patients can expect an tadalafil sales effective treatment time of 4 – 6 hours and some patients and GPs report longer effective times up to 12 hours.
The hardest part of starting a new series is the world-building; presenting the environment, backdrop, characters, history and specifics unique to the people on stage, without dumping or making it seem unnatural in the telling. Ms. Feehan has no problems in this area. I learned through the POV of Stefano Ferraro what his role is, how he’s connected to his neighbors and why he has such pride in being who and what he is. I also learned that as rich, powerful and respected as he is, there is a dark side and a despondent yearning hidden deep inside that has shades of the author’s Carpathian men from the Dark series – but that’s about all that is similar. This series stands on its own.

Stefano made me cringe in the beginning because he is extremely coarse. My reference is his propensity for dropping F-bombs like hail on a flower – it’s hard hitting, and at times, obnoxious. Not all flowers get pummeled into the ground and that’s how I see Francesca. The heroine is beaten down but her determination, drive and compassion lends her a strength that is more than a match for Stefano. The meeting between the two happens in the first chapter and the hook is set.

Another difference in this series from the others is the sexuality. There are a lot of detailed scenes and some of them without a doubt fall into the erotic category, especially since there is a distinctive dom/sub relationship between them – a little tying up, commands, a few spanks – but Francesca is definitely the submissive – in bed. Outside, well, she’s sassy, feisty and has a sense of humor – when she’s not in fear for her life. There are also very descriptive scenes of oral sex, which, on the whole usually don’t bother me but I’m not of fan of the…taking it all in stuff. That’s too much for me.

The drama, suspense, violence and justice delivered, came from dealing with some very evil, twisted and effective villains. The levels of intensity varied depending on the villain on stage but the writing was well done so I had no problem believing their badness.

The skillset of the shadow riders is unique to my reading experience. How the author even conceived of this paranormal aspect is fascinating and I’m pretty sure it’s never been done before. I like it when an author discovers a new angle.

There is a ton more details and scenes, descriptions and dialogue I could share because this novel is jam-packed with great dialogue, fascinating personalities, descriptions and plot. The main focus is on the romance and it’s a definite HEA that I’m happy with.

I enjoyed the journey and there were many times I was left biting my nails because of the suspense, but through it all, it kept my interest and totally had me sucked into their world. Shadow Rider is such a novel concept; it proves that Ms. Feehan has an indomitable imagination. We fans are so lucky to be the beneficiaries of such a talent. I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

There should only ever be two people in a marriage…

Sandy McLeod has been perfectly happy in her D/s relationship with her husband Zane for the last ten years. Until his old army buddy re-enters their life.

Sean Manson is altogether too handsome, too virile, far too much of anything. The man oozes dominance, danger, and leashed aggression, and Sandy can’t help but respond to him. Neither can Zane. He walked away from Sean once. Now, he’s back, long suppressed feelings bubble to the surface and cannot be denied. When Sandy agrees to a threesome, happiness seems within their grasp. Sean’s demons, however, threaten to destroy everything they hold dear.

Sean never meant to come between husband and wife, let alone hurt either one of them. Surely, the only solution is to walk away from them both. When you’re the missing piece, however, walking is simply not an option.

If two’s company, can adding a third make them more or will it destroy them all?

This short story starts and ends on very similar, really hot notes. This isn’t a slow building heat, it’s an atomic explosion that had my e-reader smoking at the edges. That can be a good thing, because, yes, it grabbed my attention quick but, it can also be a not so good thing. It’s not that the heat ever really dies down, tho there is a situation that happens that banks it for a bit, it’s that it feels like the author took a small chunk of the characters relationship and only shared that teaser. Again, super hot teaser, but teaser non the less.

The story is good. Sandy and Zane are seemingly happily married but she begins to suspect that something is off. It’s not until she meets Zane’s bit of history, in the form of dominant, Sean Manson, that she sees that it isn’t just off, something (or rather someone) is missing. Sean comes with some baggage that felt very realistic and heartbreaking. I liked Sandy’s response to his condition and Zane, bless his heart, is torn between the two people he both loves and desires.

The author has so much potential in this short to expound of their story. I wanted to see and feel the connection between Zane and Sean, prior to Sandy entering the picture. They seemed to be so close and then Zane meets Sandy, is married for ten years and then Sean re-enters the picture. The author explains where he was but I’d like to know how he and Zane were coping without each other. Maybe this story is supposed to simply highlight the culmination of them not being able to deny themselves any longer but also how Zane has desire and love for his wife as well. It’s complicated but I thought the author did a good job of giving them their story.

There are a few grammar issues that could be corrected in a future re-release. Major, in that the heroes names are switched at one point (says Sean and should have been Zane) and then another place where incorrect pronouns are used. Not story killers by any means but worth fixing if the book is updated or expanded on later. I enjoyed this story and wouldn’t hesitate to pick up another book by Ms. O’Connor. She has a good grasp on the D/s lifestyle.

I appreciated that this story gives voices to retired military and what problems often stay with them long after they separate. That was realistically depicted and discussed both honestly and respectfully. An easy recommend.

Terry is a tiger shifter and enjoys a bit of kink with his sexual partners. Usually the top, Terry is taken completely surprise in a number of ways by Ash, a bear shifter. The heat between them explodes almost instantly, but can the two men make more than a night of it together?

This is a seriously hot and sexy short story. I loved the chemistry and kinky sex between Terry and Ash. For such a short length story I felt the build-up between the men was perfect – not so long as to drag on or shortchange the kink, but quick enough that it didn’t feel to me like they merely clapped eyes on each other and fell into insta-love. I thought the author did a great job balancing the two and it really worked for me.

While I loved all the super-hot sex, the growing relationship between Ash and Terry is the only other aspect to the plot. Terry isn’t used to having a partner strong enough to dominate him and it takes a little getting used to. I could understand if this makes the plot just a little too thin for some readers. Personally I loved the wild and sexual ride Terry and Ash take together, but for such a short story I’m not sure the author could have added a complicated plot into it without losing some of the blossoming romance. I also would have liked to have seen and learned a little more about the paranormal world.

A hot, sexy and very lightly kinky story this was an excellent, quick read and one I enjoyed. Recommended.

The only time Geoff is able to ignore the ever-increasing tension growing within him is when he’s on his knees, begging a Mistress for the release he craves.

Despite Geoff’s insistence that he’s not sexually interested in men, Deacon offers Geoff release in his subspace and Geoff’s need is urgent enough he cautiously agrees. Can Deacon open Geoff’s eyes to what he truly craves?

I found this a really interesting and erotic story. At first I was a little nervous this might be about Deacon showing or “proving” to Geoff that he was gay and the two men could be brilliant lovers, but I was delighted this wasn’t the manner of the writing at all. Deacon was serious when he explained a good Dom could do a scene with a sub regardless of gender, that the scene was based on dominance and submission and each party giving and receiving what they needed. That sex – while frequent and wonderful – wasn’t a necessary factor in the equation of BDSM. And this was exactly what Deacon showed Geoff. I loved that this was the main aspect of the plot and storyline. Sure, the chemistry and sexual tension between Deacon and Geoff was delicious and I felt it had a wonderful slow burn, but it was very clear to me that Deacon carefully took all his cues from Geoff and there wasn’t even the faintest hint in my mind of Deacon trying to “turn” Geoff or push him in a certain direction.

Geoff’s need for submission was also very clearly written and I felt it was a big part of the plot. I really enjoyed how Deacon could read Geoff’s signals and adjust his own plans to encompass Geoff’s needs. In that respect this was an incredibly romantic and emotional read to my mind. Deacon showed characteristics of an excellent Master, tailoring his scenes and actions to what would best suit and help Geoff. And while there was the steady bubble of sexual chemistry between them (and eventually some delicious, non-penetration sex) the sex truly was secondary, the dominance and submission, the BDSM and elements of that lifestyle along with the blossoming relationship between the two men were what was written as most critical and the sex was absolutely secondary.

For a fresh and slightly different look at a BDSM relationship and part of the lifestyle this was an excellent story and I will be eagerly keeping an eye out for more in this series. A great read and highly recommended.

But the beer-drinking, football loving Christine and her curves push beyond his control, until the guarded playboy finds himself craving another go-round with the only woman intriguing enough to make him break his own code.

With her defenses stronger than his favorite football team, it will take more than Jarod’s talents in bed to change her stance on relationships. He’ll have to sacrifice his heart when the unexpected circumstance thrown their way threatens to rip them apart forever.

Christine is sick of boring, unfulfilling hook ups, men who simply don’t – or can’t – use their physical gifts to help her get a similar level of sexual satisfaction they do. She’s tired of it but doesn’t know how to change her luck. And then a friend finally comes through with payment on a previously made deal, and Christine is set up with Elite Escort Jarod. She finds him to be a delicious hunk whom she hopes can fulfill all her fantasies. Will Jarod live up to his hype?

I found this to be a fun and sexy short story. Christine is a modern woman who knows exactly what she wants sexually and is hungry and eager to get it. There’s no sweet “getting-to-know-you” phase to this story and considering Christine hired Jarod for a night of fulfilling sex I can’t really blame either of them. I enjoyed the chemistry and sexual tension between them both and wasn’t at all surprised at some of the kinky games the two played together. The story has a cracking pace and is definitely heavy on the sex and erotic desires of both main characters. Most of the plot centers on Christine and Jarod’s sexual needs and the building of their romantic relationship. Some of the sex is kinky – but I didn’t find it too dark or deep and feel most erotica readers shouldn’t struggle with anything raised in the sex scenes. There’s plenty of consensual play and a bit of kinky spice – but nothing that I found outrageous or too envelope pushing.

The chapters shift from Christine’s point of view to Jarod’s perspective. Since the story is written in the first person I found this really helped me connect well with both characters and so I thought that was skillful writing on the author’s part. I personally find first-person writing sometimes leaves me not feeling as attached to the characters but thankfully with the shifting perspectives this wasn’t an issue for me with this story. I particularly liked seeing how much Jarod was affected by Christine and how he struggled to try and retain his usual arms-length, professional escort emotional detachment. That made their chemistry and romance a lot more believable to me than if they’d both just taken one look at each other, had sex and fallen in insta-love. It helped sell the realism and emotional depth of the story to me.

For a hot and heavily-sexed short story this was a great quick read with interesting characters and plenty of steam for a quiet night in.

Master Cooney’s tender touch awakens her in ways she never expected.

Beaten and broken, Becky’s tattered heart yearns for what could be, and while Daniel’s strength proves a pillar of support, she must find the courage within to escape a murderous monster—before it’s too late.

Daniel was paid very well at Elite Escorts to tie willing women up and fulfill their bondage fantasies, but deep down he yearns for more. Daniel wishes there was a willing woman, a sub, who wasn’t put off and scared by his large body and dominant demeanor. Someone willing to get to know him and even love him. Becky is in an abusive relationship but is too cowed to do anything about it, until she meets Daniel and he takes the time to show her how special she truly is.

I struggled to really get into this story. Becky is very clearly being physically, sexually and emotionally abused and trodden-down by her partner, Stephen. This abusive relationship honestly made most of this story difficult for me to read. In one respect that’s a huge compliment to the realism and extensive emotion the author has put in the story and characters, but I’m personally the sort of reader who likes to escape the nasties of life when I’m reading. I could easily believe that a number of the scenes – particularly at the start and end of the story might be a trigger for some readers. Stephen at a number of stages is outright abusive to Becky and while there’s no pretense of caring or love in the abuse (it’s not written to be enticing or titillating, but just as a part of the plot) that didn’t make it any more palatable to me. Personally I found everything related to the Becky/Stephen plot exceedingly difficult to read. That said; I found this story to have a huge depth of emotion to it. Daniel through his bondage, and particularly his rope-play, opens up a whole new vista of emotions and feelings inside Becky, things she had secretly yearned for but never experienced for herself.

At times I found Becky’s character quite frustrating for naïve and “too stupid to live” style of behaviors, but I have to admit that it seemed a genuine part of her character as an abused and downtrodden woman. Abused women frequently return time and time again to their abusers, thinking they will change, that it’s their (the woman’s) fault that the abuser had lashed out particularly harshly. While I can appreciate the realism of all this – I just can’t say with honesty that I enjoyed this aspect of the storyline. I think to be honest it was just a little too gritty and realistic for me, personally. A little too confronting. The author has done an amazing job writing the story – but it was all just was real and detailed enough that I ended up feeling more uncomfortable than anything else while reading it.

Overall I truly think this is the style of story readers will either love or hate – I can’t imagine anyone reading this and being ambivalent. With realistic and excellent characters this is a vastly different story to the kind I usually read. I feel this would be a great story for readers looking to expand their horizons or read a truly different kind of tale. Gritty, almost too realistic and definitely not for the faint of heart, this is an emotional and confronting story.

This book was a pleasure to read because of the great characters, sweet romance, and the scorching sex. The story flowed by with ease and had me wishing for more, and as usual, there was a happy ever after epilogue for Maddie and Caleb and their family. I would recommend this lovely short romance to anyone.

Penny’s being punished for doing something stupid. But will her punishment turn out to be the best-ever reward?

Penny was caught out in the wrong place, at the wrong time. As a recently graduated law student, the brush with the law could put an end to her career before it’s even begun. But thanks to her lawyer daddy’s contacts, she’s been given a second chance. A chance to redeem herself and make her stupid behavior go away.

Which is how she ends up working in a soup kitchen, preparing and serving meals to those who are having a rough time of it. She’s not keen on the idea, and when she meets Maddox, the guy in charge, she’s even less keen. A tall, skinny, mad-haired, tattooed guy, Maddox is the sort of person Penny would normally cross the road to avoid. But once she gets to know him, she starts to see things differently.

When Maddox makes Penny an unconventional offer, will she have the courage to take him up on it? And if she does, where will it lead?

For a short read, this one packs a lot of heat.

I love the work of Lucy Felthouse. I’ve never been steered wrong by her books. This one is short, but it’s high on heat. The characters aren’t together long—it’s only 39 pages—but the connection is there.

Penny got herself into trouble by trusting the wrong person. I could relate to her. Sometimes it’s hard to know who to trust. To atone for getting into this trouble (I won’t give away spoilers), she ends up at a soup kitchen for community service. She’s her own person, but she does have trust issues. I liked her, but thought the relationship to Maddox, the hero, ended up being a tad rushed. Still, this is a short story. I knew going in it would be quick.

Maddox isn’t who he seems. He looks like he’s a rough character and has some rough edges, but he’s a gem down inside. I didn’t get to know much about him, but I liked him.

This is a short, but hot story that’s great for a lunchtime read. If you want something guaranteed to singe the screen, then this might be the book for you.
