Petra was a curvy, full-figured woman, but after losing an eye and the resultant scarring she’d closed herself off from almost everyone. Only Drake – her bodyguard – had appeared to see beneath the surface, but Petra is reluctant to trust him. Is Drake really what he seems?

I found this to be an interesting and emotional read. Drake in particular was a complicated character with mixed priorities. I was really impressed with how the author turned the usual “hidden motives and telling lies” plotline utterly onto it’s head. It made the entire story feel really fresh and different to me, despite the fact the set-up was rather clichéd. Really early on having the way I expected the plot to unfold was turned inside-out and I loved it. This change-up also really helped me relax and enjoy Petra and Drake learning about each other and slowly come together. I loved how they were both strong and loyal characters and I deeply believed they were well suited to each other. This really helped sell me on the realism of their romance and I was rooting from them as they came together.

There is a healthy amount of conflict in the story and I was pleased this came from Petra’s family and not Petra and Drake’s romance. I really enjoyed watching Petra grow in her self-confidence and how over time she grew to trust Drake. I also thought Drake was wonderfully patient, which really made him seem like hero material to my eyes. Readers who enjoy a slow-romance with heated, erotic sex scenes should find this story really fits the bill for them. With a few twists and turns to keep the plot fresh and interesting I found this a refreshing read and one that managed to surprise me in a good way at a few points along the way.

I found this to be a good and happy read. Recommended.

After losing a couple of jobs, Ellie Taylor intends to drown her sorrows. She needs a night of forgetting. At first, there’s no chance of that happening until … tall, dark, and handsome shows up, the kind of guy who makes her melt.

Antonio Rosso gives her an offer she can’t refuse. Her curves draw his attention, and he can’t say no to such a beauty. No woman has ever said no to him, and Ellie doesn’t either. She doesn’t know who he is, what he does, or who he works for.

One night isn’t enough. Two nights won’t cut it either. Not with how addictive he becomes to her complete lack of knowledge about the kind of danger he is. She doesn’t need to know he’s an enforcer for the mafia. But when his others find out Ellie is his woman, there’s no backing out.

He has to keep Ellie for life or kill her. Will Ellie give him the chance to prove to her he loves her?

Ellie had lost three jobs in a week and feeling sad let herself be talked into going to a bar with some of her friends. Not interested in dancing or hooking up for a quick fling, she’s surprised when a hot, handsome stranger approaches her at the bar. Antonio had known the moment Ellie walked in that she’d be his. Innocent and sweet unlike almost every other person he knew, Ellie drew him and Antonio was not a man who let anything get in his way.

This is a fast paced and very steamy, explicit story. Disconnect your brain, grab a large glass of wine and sit back to enjoy it. Readers looking for a logical, rational or realistic story absolutely won’t find that here. That said, Antonio is the epitome of dark and dangerous, a killer bad guy and Ellie is a seriously relatable regular woman who normally toes the line and does the smart, sensible thing until one night she suddenly decides not to. Antonio and Ellie’s characters are interesting and easy to get hooked on.

In some ways this is quite a dark story. Readers who enjoy the style of Mafia and Mob stories – where domination and darker emotional elements are vivid and quite strong through the entire story – should find this suitable and really well written. This won’t be a good fit for all readers. Even though Ellie has no desire to enter a serious relationship with Antonio he makes it virtually impossible for her to deny him and he somewhat forces her compliance into a new apartment and into being his girlfriend. While she comes around eventually – and from the beginning is sexually attracted to him – I’m not sure the non-physical pressure and almost bullying tactics Antonio employs on Ellie will be every readers cup of tea.

The sex between them is hotly explicit and quite prolific through the story. I was really pleased that both Ellie and Antonio both began to build an emotional and romantic relationship together even though that’s not what either originally intended. While this isn’t your traditional romance story I was pleased that there were a few romantic threads woven into the story that helped keep it from being a harsher or far darker story than I usually enjoy.

Dark and complicated, this won’t be every readers cup of tea but I feel it will absolutely appeal to readers who like more of an edge to their romance or enjoy the Dark Mafia style of erotica really popular right now.

Laney might have been separated from Alex Cormican but when she overheard and plotting of a woman determined to blackmail Alex into marrying her Laney can’t sit back and do nothing. Can Laney and Alex sort something out between them?

This is a fun and quick read. I enjoyed the banter between Laney and Alex and could see why they had struggled to make their marriage work the first time around. With fast-paced writing and a dash of humour this should be a story that finds a wide range of readers who enjoy it. Told in the first person perspective by Laney I did wish a few times that I could fully understand where Alex was coming from and what he was really thinking and feeling. Although I could tell things would resolve in a happy and positive manner it was a bit tricky to really see or feel that in a few places and I strongly suspect that knowing what Alex was feeling could have made this easier on me as a reader.

I was really impressed with the plot of how Laney and Alex worked together to solve their mutual problem with the potential blackmailer. I felt while still realistic and interesting the author had an awesome “outside-the-box” solution and it really kept my interest throughout the short story. I also enjoyed seeing a little of Alex’s actor lifestyle and felt this really added dimension to the story and kept it from being just a “estranged married couple work on their relationship” style of story. This quick read had depth and some lovely surprises that kept me eagerly turning the pages.

A strongly plotted and well-written story this was a great quick read and an author I’ll happily check out again.
