Synopsis

Two cups of a protective, dirty talkin’ alpha who loves his Cupcake. 

One tablespoon of a sweet southern baker who loves her Sexy Sawyer, even when he’s being a hothead. 

A slice of the past that shows up on their doorstep, turning their world upside down with a life-altering plea. 

A dash of passion. 

A pinch of heartache. 

A sprinkle of hope. 

Mix together in a large bowl, creating a difficult choice, a testing of one’s faith, and a man who will do anything to protect his family—even if it means accepting a decision that could result in losing the one he loves most. 

Bake at 350° for a rich serving of life with a love that could withstand anything. Even the unthinkable. 

A timeless recipe that is sure to fill your heart with a generous helping of sweet love. 

*** 

This is a longer length novella that follows Sawyer and Grace’s journey after Sweet Temptation, book two in the Men of Honor series. It is told in dual POV, has an HEA, and no cliffhanger. Sweet Temptation should be read prior to this novella. It is recommended to read the other books in both the Men of Honor series and the Acts of Honor series as all the characters play recurring roles. However it’s not necessary. 

Warning: Due to mature subject matter, such as explicit sexual situations and coarse language, this story is not suitable for anyone under the age of 18.

First and foremost, HIIII. Nothing can bring me back from the dusty bookshelves like a K.C. Lynn book. 

Sweet Love is a novella following K.C. Lynns Sweet Temptation Men of Honor Book 2 (click HERE for my review for Sweet Temptation)

Sweet Love fast forwards the couple of Sweet Temptation "Sexy Sawyer" and "Cupcake Grace" and their twin children Parker and "Shortcake" Hope. I would highly recommend reading the Men of Honor series prior to Sweet Love as you get the full effect of each character.

Sweet Love is a refreshing insight into the world of Sexy Sawyer and his Cupcake. Throughout the book you are engulfed into the relationship between parents and children and get to visit some favorites along the way.

An emotional journey you take with a parent who has a choice they never thought they will make. I appreciated Sweet Love for the glimpse it allows me to have with a family i feel like i am apart of. You laugh, you cry, you get angry, sad, excited and frustrated but at the end of the day Sweet Love will fill you with just that, sweet love.

I give Sweet Love by K.C. Lynn 5 Glasses of the most amazing Moscoto with a Side of Hero Pie

I enjoyed the journey i got to experience with Sawyer and Grace. Their love and foundation is so strong they are able to find ways to hope each other up with outside things attempt to rip them a part. Theres a line Sawyer says that reads "The easiest thing ive ever done in my life is love you Grace" and you know he means that with ever fiber in his body. Sawyer's able to still be his ego driven self but his maturity as a husband and father is inspiring. Sweet Love is written in a realistic way of the dynamics of an amazing marriage deal with a tribulation. Grace is still the sweet thoughtful and caring person we've seen before but their is a confidence to her i feel the love of Sawyer and joy of motherhood gives. The strength Grace has gives a glimpse of what the support of her new family gives her. The novella ended and i wanted more. I wanted more of a look into the day to day of the Evens family because i feel like a part of their world. Keep the tissues near by and prepare of an emotional event that enforces the power of faith, strength of family and the confidence of Sweet Love.

Synopsis

She’s beautiful yet scarred beyond repair. 

He’s powerful and lethal, in and out of the ring. 

One act of kindness brought Sophie Parish far more danger than she could have ever imagined. Now she’s on the run, leaving behind her family and the only dream she’s ever had. 

Retired EFC fighter Kolan Slade’s life has been one endless battle after another. He has a dark past with an even darker desire—the only one he’s ever known. 

Until he meets Sophie. 

Intrigued by her raw beauty and the secrets she’s trying to hide, Kolan craves to know who she is and what she’s running from.

Protecting her becomes his obsession and he’ll sacrifice it all to save her. But in the end her love will have him questioning himself and everything he thought he knew.

***

This is book three in the Acts Of Honor series, the spin-off series to Men Of Honor. Kolan and Sophie’s story is told in dual POV, has an HEA with no cliffhanger, and can be read as a standalone. However, I highly recommend reading prior books in both series, as characters play recurring roles throughout.

Erotic m/f novella

Read to Me 

At the age of forty-four, Blaise Blankenship believes her own opportunity for romance has long since passed until she accidentally lands in the lap of a sexy stranger. She and the handsome Latino connect over an afternoon at a local bookstore, sharing their love of erotica. Blaise is swept away by an impetuous, hot, "no last names" night together. But the morning after reveals a truth she can't ignore—or avoid.

His gaze roamed the stacks. "Interesting place. I enjoy book shops, but I've never been here before."

"It's one of my favorite spots. I love to come and browse, just sit and read."

"I read so much for my job, I've gotten out of the habit of reading for enjoyment. I miss it." He pulled a book from the shelf and showed her the spine. Lady Chatterley's Lover. "This is one of my favorites."

Suddenly, it became difficult to breathe. "Yes." She forced the word through her constricted throat. "That's an amazing novel."

Constance Chatterley could only find sexual fulfillment with gamekeeper Oliver Mellors. This man, whoever he was, would make a perfect Mellors.

And she would be Lady Chatterley?

As he stood holding the D.H. Lawrence volume, Blaise imagined his large hands stroking her, caressing her body. She quivered, her panties moistening.

Look away, look away!

Quickly, she redirected her gaze to his face. His lips quirked in a little smile. Oh, God, had he guessed where her thoughts had wandered? "Umm, I take the bus all the time, but I don't think I've ever seen you before."

He nodded. "I usually drive to work and back, but my car's in the shop and I couldn't catch a ride with anyone, so…" He extended his hand. "I'm Guy, by the way."

"Hi, I'm Blaise." When they shook hands, she again flashed to the image of him touching her in more intimate ways.

He replaced Lady Chatterley on the shelf. "I didn't mean to interrupt your reading." He nodded at her book. "Cupid's Delight. I'm not familiar with that one. Any good?"

Blood rushed to her cheeks. Oh Blaise, don't be a baby. She cleared her throat, flustered by the feelings this man brought out in her. "Too early to tell. I haven't started it."

"It sounds intriguing, doesn't it?" His gaze held hers and excitement fizzed through her.

She swallowed hard and nodded. "I think so, too."

With a tilt of his head, Guy indicated the red velvet loveseat wedged into the corner. "Maybe we could sit, read it together."

Her breath hitched, and her heart thumped so hard she'd have been surprised if he couldn't see her blouse flutter. Had this man actually asked to read erotica with her? Yes.

And was she going to agree? Yes!

Read to Me is a great short read. A topic not many books in the romance genre touch Read to Me was a great change from your everyday romance.

Blaise is an older women who lands in Guys lap one day on her bus and takes that opportunity to bring a fire back to her life.

The story does start slow and being a short read i felt a lot of the focus was on the build up. As the story began to build i was already at 82% which made the ending feel rushed.

One of my favorite things was the co-reading of a romance novel. I read so often and i can only image how SIZZLING HOT it is to read with a romantic date.

Great short read, great characters, great storyline and some fire work love scenes.

I would not only recommend Read to Me ill more than likely re-read it and try some of Ms. Raines other books!

Romances may have changed since then, but her love for a good love story has not. She's been writing off and on for years, but it was only when she joined the Central New York Romance Writers Association that she finally gained the support and confidence she needed to complete a manuscript.

Nona lives in upstate New York with her many pets and is currently working on her next novel. A former librarian, she enjoys reading books of all genres and discussing them with others. Her books include The Man Series (One Good Man, Take This Man and Her Perfect Man) from The Wild Rose Press and Uncollared from Loose Id.

Climax by Sexxa Kohl

If you’d asked me what I thought I’d be doing at twenty-two, it certainly wouldn’t be taking my clothes off for complete strangers. The world sees me as a whore and a worthless piece of trash. No one would ever believe that I am still a virgin, waiting to find love. I think I can easily say that I don’t think love is ever going to be finding me at Club Climax. 

I give the crowd what they want. For the next two and half minutes, I dance, undress, shake my ass, and slide up and down the metal pole. I am in complete control while I am up here on this stage. The dancers make the rules at this place. That is except for the room in the far back, known as Ultimate Climax. It is the one place where all power is surrendered; the one place in this club that I said I’d never go, no matter how desperate I got. The price is just too high for me, and I refuse to sell myself to the highest bidder. I cannot afford to lose the only thing I have left… My control. 

Sometimes, the day comes when we have to do the things that we said we would never do. For me, that day is here. I take a deep breath, grab the door handle, and know that once I walk through that door, my whole life will forever change. 

Little did I know just how much it actually would.

One Ride by @chelseacamaron

One Ride

Book One of the Hellions Ride Series

By Chelsea Camaron

Blurb:

Delilah “Doll” Reklinger never imagined her life with anyone that wasn’t a Hellion.  She never imagined there would be a Hellion that could prove himself worthy enough to her father, Roundman, Hellions Club President.  Content in living in the bubble of safety the motorcycle club family has always provided, Doll never thought that danger surrounded her. 

Roundman has kept the Hellions contained for the last thirty years by controlling the chaos surrounding their lifestyle.  When the dangerous side to their business comes knocking on his door, he realizes his precious Doll isn’t safe.  The Hellions code may be that women and children are off limits in any altercation or dispute, but that doesn’t mean their enemies follow that same moral compass.

His only child, now in danger from the association to him and his club, Roundman makes a decision.  He sends her away with a charter club member that he trusts, in hopes that the trouble won’t follow.

One ride across the country.  One simple ride.  Talon “Tripp” Crews has been ordered to take Doll on one ride away and to keep her safe.  She’s off limits.  His head knows this, but his body can’t deny the attraction.  She’s feisty, fierce, and fearless. 

Constantly in close confines together, can they deny the chemistry?  Will they give into the desire?  Can one ride turn lust into love?

Amazon : Barnes and Noble : GoodReads : 

One Ride by Chelsea Camaron revolves around Doll and Tripp, both growing into their own in a situation neither have a choice about. I love biker clubs, alpha man and women that may seem naive but have a strong core. Doll is the first child of the biker club, being around the club her whole life and raised in the biker world she's not as naive as her father thinks, but she still doesn't understand the trouble coming for her. 

As we learn about Doll and Tripp on their ride to safety, you also see them slowly deal with the chemistry between them. Knowing the pros and cons of their relationship, you can do nothing but stay along for the ride. 

I really enjoyed this book, and am excited for book two in the series. The story is engaging, has you from the first word to last work. Doll is real, as a person whose never been on a bike you would think i couldn't relate to Doll but i do. I am a daughter and a friend, plus Chelsea wrote in such a way you can't help but get involved emotionally. One Ride involves so many different characters that each have their own story and nicknames, sometimes that can get confusing but i was able to follow along in One Ride. 

Some rants would be with all the information your given, you can help but feel like key parts weren't explained. I hope Tank, Sass and Nick's story develops in book two because I WANNNNNAA KNOWW what happens :-) . Raves, i love how Chelsea has a realistic time able! Doll and Tripp didn't know each other a week and fall in love, their stories are given time to get to know one another, its real. Im curious on whats going to happen with Lux and Rex, that looks like a whole situation on it on. 

One Ride is a great start to what seems to be a kick a$$ series, you have bikers, family, friends, some hotttt scenes, smart women, alpha males and a whole lotta riding!

I give One Ride by Chelsea Camaron

Chelsea Camaron was born and raised in Coastal North Carolina. She currently resides in Southern Louisiana with her husband and two children but her heart is always Carolina day dreaming.

Chelsea always wanted to be a writer, but like most of us, let fear of the unknown grab a hold of her dream; she realized that if she was going to tell her daughter to go for her dreams, that it was time to follow her own advice.

Chelsea grew up turning wrenches alongside her father, and from that grew her love for old muscle cars and Harley Davidson motorcycles, which just so happened to inspired her ‘Love and Repair’ series and the ‘Hellions Ride’ motorcycle club series. Her love for reading has sparked a new love for writing and she currently has a few more projects in the works.

When she is not spending her days writing you can find her playing with her kids, attending car shows, going on motorcycle rides on the back of her husband’s Harley, snuggling down with her new favorite book or watching any movie that Vin Diesel might happen to be in. She hates being serious and is still a big kid at heart. She is a small town country girl enjoying life and, Chelsea hopes that her readers remember not to take life too seriously and to embrace your inner five year old, because five year olds know how to enjoy the simple things in life and how to always have fun.

First time i really listen to an audio book, took a little getting use to but i ended up loving it. Saved by One, Shared by Two was definite a different book. Dated in more recent times you learn what would happen if a catastrophe returned us to olden pre-electricity time. Julie such a strong character falls upon Arden on her way to find her brother and developed as a person, women and human.

I love how Julie is strong but still flawed, she's a realistic person who worked through her own emotions to be happy. Ben and Arden, childhood best friends grow as they deal with the loss of love ones and the love of a good women. The narrator was able to portray the feeling of all three main characters while trailing through the life Julie, Arden and Ben create for themselves.

I enjoy the trials and tribulations in saved by one, i didn't expect the base story to be so compelling and take a piece of my heart while still having some hot scenes. I feel like Julie, Arden and Ben are friends now and I'm so proud of what they accomplished when the world was against them.

Sweet Surrender by Angel Steel

Sweet Surrender by Angel Steel (Sweet Series #2)

For five long years, Chantal has been in love with Dom. They have always had a great friendship and flirted with each other like nobody’s business, which just seemed to be their thing. Chantal’s feelings for Dom were obvious to everyone but him. 
After being rejected for the last time by Dom, Chantal is fed up and ready to move on…or so she thinks. She finds solace in a familiar face and starts anew. Things start to heat up, and along with new beginnings come new surprises…and secrets. An old flame resurfaces and things go awry. The crazier life gets, the harder it is to keep her secrets from the people she loves, including Dom. Can she keep these secrets hidden forever? 
Dom has been hiding his feelings for Chantal for five years. He just can’t see a way to make it work. There are things about him that she can never know. One could test her limits and the other would certainly test their relationship. Either way, Dom is afraid he will lose her if she were to ever find out. 
Will the love that Chantal and Dom has for each other, be strong enough for them to cope with all of the lies and deceit? Or will it end them for good?

WTF, Angel Steel takes you on such a ride throughout book two in the sweet series. Book one Sweet Temptation took you through the story of Sky and Nate...as Sweet Surrender starts you learn more about Sky and Nate's best friends Chantal and Dom.

As you read Sweet Surrender a part of you forgets its a book and not your life, your entranced in the story and characters. Chantal is in love with Dom, but Dom has secrets he feels he cant tell Chantal or he'll lose her. What he learns is if he's not honest he will loser her no matter what. I loved the surprises throughout the book but man did my heart break over and over. Sweet Surrender can be read as a standalone or you can read them in order. I loved this book and how it didn't fall into the typical BSDM world. Ms. Steel proved she's a force to be reckoned with yet again.

Hot Redemption by K.D. Penn Tour

Title: Hot Redemption

Author: K.D. Penn (pseudonym for Kenya Wright and D.T. Dyllin)

Genre: Cyberpunk Erotic Romance

Publisher: Dragonfairy Press

Expected publication: July 2013

GoodReads

Blurb:

Epic and his brothers don’t rob strip clubs for fun or fame, but to use the electric currency to take care of their family. With androids and robots flooding the job market, it’s almost impossible for humans to find work. Besides, stealing comes easy to the gang, until Phoenix steps into their lives, snatching away their bounty and fogging up Epic’s mind with her seductive scent.

Shots blare. A chase ensues. Both sides refuse to yield. And the small compromise that comes is brought by chains and a promise for a bigger hit—on a planet far away from earth.

Can Epic and Phoenix work together to rescue themselves from poverty?

Or will they find another type of redemption, one lathered in lust and warmth, pleasure, and the type of undemanding love that no human can live without?

HOTTTTT, is the perfect thing to put in this title!

Hot Redemption is/was so much more than what i expected, not normally a fan of sci-fi type novels i was apprehensive on how i would like this book to my norms.

It exceeded my expectations!

You follow the story of Epic, his family and an independent woman named Pheonix. 

Epic and Nix are damaged souls attempting to make their way around the planets with their heads above water and their hearts in tact. Each with their own past that shapes who they've become, the story follows their present and where their future will take them.

K.D. Penn combined put together such an inspiring story on love, lost, addiction, fear and the thin line between right and wrong.

Learning about the family, triplets, Shades rod and an over protected sister, you cant help but want more.

I enjoyed Epic and Nix, they have a very love and hate relationship. My heart constantly goes out to Epic as the head of the family and brains behind "family business", he was never given the chance to be a kid and enjoy life. Maybe because i understand that world or because KD Penn wrote such a descriptive view for readers to enjoy.

From the first chapter to the last you have chemistry, action, love and a whole lot of sarcasm! lol my favorite combination!

I give Hot Redemption by K.D. Penn

K.D. Penn is a pseudonym for the writing team of Kenya Wright and D.T. Dyllin. Or to make it simpler for you…

       

Kenya Wright always knew she would be famous since the ripe old age of six when she sang the Michael Jackson thriller song in her bathroom mirror. She has tried her hand at many things from enlisting in the Navy for six years as a Persian-Farsi linguist to being a nude model at an art university.

However, writing has been the only constant love in her life. Will she succeed? Of course.

For she has been coined The Urban Fantasy Queen, the Super Iconic Writer of this Age, The Lyrical Genius of Our Generation. Granted, these are all terms coined by her, within the private walls of her bathroom as she still sings the Michael Jackson thriller song.

Kenya Wright currently resides in Miami (yippie fellow Miami girllie!!!) with her three amazing, overactive children, a

supportive, gorgeous husband, and three cool black cats that refuse to stop sleeping on Kenya’s head at night.
