Reviewed by Tracey Quintin originally for Goodreads

Let me preface by saying to me this book is erotic and I am not an erotic book reader and many scenes were out of my comfort zone in reading but I KNOW Sydney Landon delivers so I put those uncomfortable thoughts aside to read and get wrapped up in the story unfolding. Now having said that, I couldn't put the book down!

YOWZA! I fell for Luc and Lia! I found myself rooting for these 2 in this remarkable story and kept thinking as I was reading these 2 NEED each other, they complete each other far beyond the physical aspect.

What a page turner and emotional read. I had some laughs but also some sadness and happiness in reading this journey. A couple shockers as well.

I can't wait for the next book as I must see this journey through.

Well done Sydney! I knew without a doubt you'd deliver and you did!

Highly recommend you read this exciting book!!

Reviewed by Tracey Quintin originally for Goodreads

This is the first book of Savannah Morgan's that I've read and let me tell ya it's a GREAT story.

I'm not usually one to read books of fairies, dragons, wolves, etc. but I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline, characters, and dialogue!

There was the perfect combination of description and conversation which I love.

There were moments I cracked up at some of the comments made by the characters and moments I was nervous about what might happen to the main characters, Aidan and Samantha.

I felt for Aidan and the responsibilities he has on him. Not only that but he has a tender and protective side that oh so shines through! Totally flipping hot! I only wish I was Samamtha!

Samantha, the beautiful gal, hasn't a clue what she's in for. She steps up and really shows her strength and support when it's most needed.

That's all I can share without giving.any of the storyline away.

Let me say, if Aidan was real he is MINE! I'll keep him in my heart as mine anyway.

Very well done Savannah! Highly recommend and will be reading more of Savannah's work for sure!

Don't miss out on this great story!

Great Read Comes with Reviewer's Warning

Title:  Colour My Ugly (Colour Series) (Volume 2)

Author: A. Giannoccaro

Genre:  Literature & Fiction, Erotica, Romantic Suspense, Mystery & Suspense

ISBN #:   B0148UU1ZQ

Reviewer's Rating: 5 star

Reviewed by Tracey Quintin originally for Goodreads

This story was my first dark romance read and I have to warn you if you've never read a dark romance, this is INTENSE, DARK and NOT for folks who don't want to read a story that contains rape, murder or abuse.

It took me a few days once I finished reading to get beyond the WOW, MAN THAT WAS INTENSE to be able to write my review. As I said, this was my first read of this genre.

It also took me some time to read because of the intensity. I really LOVED the storyline, most of the characters, with the exception of the character that calls Lauri "little one." I don't even want to give his name because he was pure "evil."

All the characters in this story are damaged, tortured souls, either from their upbringing or from what life has dealt them.

I don't give the story away in my reviews but let me say this:

Lauri, what a beautiful woman. She was sheltered from her roots for many years then after being damaged in every possible way for many years becomes a strong, loving, capable and confident woman.

Rowan, what a beautiful man. He grew up thinking he was a "bad" man, knowing full well his roots and what he was meant to do in life. Little did he know that he had the capacity to love someone. For that matter neither did Lauri.

Callum, a man who knows his roots, is a "brother by heart" to Rowan and clearly is in over his head in "bad" situations yet his friends can't help him.

Robin and Amya, each with their own and combined sadness and past.

Robin is a brilliant tattoo artist who is able to skillfully draw and color over the outside "ugly" of Lauri and Rowan (they think, I think they are beautiful) and as they are inked, make them feel the pain as the needle pierces their skin. The intricate details of his work are so vividly in my mind.

Lauri and Rowan melted a piece of my heart. They belong together, they understand each other, they are destined for each other. They fit together.

Ashleigh Giannoccaro paints a careful visual of each character mentioned above as well as a gripping, page turning story that will stay in your mind. I highlighted so many parts that touched me.

At the start of each chapter, Ms. Giannoccaro has a quote so befitting the chapter. These quotes are outstanding.

"I don't want anyone to suffer the darkness of another." sticks in my mind when thinking of this story.

I very highly recommend this read to all who can handle it. Well done Ms. Giannoccaro!

***Lastly, I MUST make mention that the version of this book that I downloaded had an INCREDIBLE amount of editing errors. I personally focus on the storyline in reading and reviewing. I'm hopeful that a re-edited version will be uploaded because I don't want folks to focus on these errors and miss out on a remarkable read!***

Goodreads Reviewer Gives Erotica Five Stars

Title:  Water Ecstasy

Author:  Alexa Busnell
Genre:  fiction, erotica,  paranormal
AISN: B00E57E7XA
 Published by Amazon Kindle KDP

 

 

Reviewed by Meghan R for Goodreads and Amazon 

A fantasy story with a refreshing erotic bent, Alexa Busnell’s ‘Water Ecstasy’ is something I haven’t seen in years: a well-written tale you will actually love sinking your mind-teeth into.

‘Water Ecstasy’ is about a girl, Coral, who has the ability to create—“conjure” is the preferred word—water. Apparently, it is a rare, important power, yet Coral cannot accomplish it without having the necessary elements. And so she embarks on an arduous, highly risk journey toward a far-away continent, along with her most loyal friends. Obviously, it’s not at all a walk in the park, as the journey has to wend its way through dangerous landscapes and unfriendly territories, and Coral and her party have to use wit, cunning and skill to survive and reach their destination. And believe me, the journey is a white-knuckled, edge-of-your-seat adventure—sexually charged in the right places, of course.

A novel of the fantasy genre, ‘Water Ecstasy’ is so skillfully written—Busnell is such a seasoned writer that she has deftly sinewed this tale with enough verisimilitude to make every moment—every character—as believable as today’s headlines. You take ownership of Coral’s desire to do what she has always wanted to do—and you’re there, beside the girls and their new-found allies, as they persevere to get what they want. The emotional resonance of their ultimate goal is such that you keep turning the pages, starving to know what happens next. And for me, that’s what a good fantasy story is all about—to make you suspend your disbelief so much you forget you’re reading fiction.

Fans of the erotic fantasy genre—especially those who love a strong-willed heroine—will love every page of Busnell’s ‘Water Ecstasy’. A perfect read on a rainy weekend. Five stars, no less.

A Personal Review--Heart to Heart

The Fallen by Gigi Miner
By Gigi Miner
Publisher: Lulu
Supernatural Mystery - Erotic Aesop's Fable
ISBN: 978-1-4303-0182-0

Reviewed by Yvonne Perry

The Fallen, has made such an impression upon me. My love for humanity has been rekindled and my awareness heightened by reading it.

It may seem like a fiction novel, but the spiritual impact it carries, caused me to see that it indeed contains a greater truth. We are the fallen angels; you, me, and so many others regardless of what course our lives take.

The characters in your book have come to life in the faces of those I love; even in those I do not understand or particularly enjoy being around, because now I know and recognize them as kindred spirits. Already, I feel less judgmental and more compassionate towards those who have forgotten who they are.

You’ve bravely delved into a place of pain where we abuse ourselves and others by the choices we make. Your book will help many realize that all of life is about choice and free will. Hopefully humanity will begin to make better choices that will bring peace to this planet rather than continuing to destroy it with hatred and retaliation.

Thank you so much for sharing your book, your love and your heart with me and all your readers.

Sincerely,
Yvonne Perry
