Double Entendre by Mistress Black Rose

I was really intrigued by this book. I wanted to know more about the lifestyle of BDSM. I wanted to see if this would be something I would want to try. Especially since it was a Lesbian erotic novel which I barely see much of. I did like the “scene” they did, very steamy, but if felt the characters were a little flat. Kinda like the dialogue in a porn before they get down to business. (I usually fast forward through that part to get to the juicy parts) There was too much up and down with the character's emotions that I didn’t feel it being realistic. A friend training the main character to submit more to get her girlfriend back? Didn’t make too much sense. Felt like the author was making it go in so many directions that it really didn’t go straight to the point. Some of the chapters were very steamy, but some were too flat to really feel for the characters. Maybe too much plot and not enough emotion to feel for the characters.

Dirty News by Michelle Love

Dirty News by Michelle Love

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I usually love Michelle Love's novels. They are really hot and fun to read. I was a little disappointed in Dirty News. I just felt like the plot was unbelievable and just kept repeating itself over and over again. The situations were outrageous on how no one can touch another employee because it would be looked at like they were flirting. It just seemed like Love was stretching to find conflict in this story. But she sure can write the love scenes. I just felt like it was unbelievable just like a Hallmark holiday movie that is filmed in June and the snow is melting. I didn't hate it, just thought it needed a little more umph and less repeating the situation over and over again.

Jenna's Cookie Award: Insescapable Fate by Hanleigh Bradley

Although I hate cliffhangers, this is one that I CAN NOT WAIT until the next book. Bradley wrote such great characters from the get go. And the fun thing about it, you still don't know what is going on in the two lead characters Georgia and Trent. They are so closed with their background that when it finally unravels you get more and more into the story. And when they start to get closer and closer, you can imagine how they are looking at each other and that's what great. Bradley not only makes you imagine what she is explaining but you can imagine the way the characters smirks and look are like. And she doesn't force you to think it, her writing just flows so well that she's not forcing you to imagine, you just do it on your own. I love how she didn't even make you feel like you were reading a story. You were somehow living it with them.
I received an ARC for an honest review and can not wait until Hanleigh is done with her next one!

Jenna's Cookie Award: The Ruler by Elin Peer

When I'm reading this series, I want to put my full attention to it. Only read this book and not 5 others while I'm in the process of read Elin Peer's books. The reason for this is because it's like going into a different world that Peer has created with two different worlds colliding together. These worlds are one of a kind. Yes, you can say one world is bad and one world is good or it's the equivalent to heaven and hell. But there is just so much more in these detailed troublesome worlds on both ends that you just want to keep reading to see what happens.

And of course I have stayed up WAY past my bedtime a number of times with these journeys that I am taking. That is why I can't put them down. Knowing that, when I first was getting ill during the wonderful flu season I thought, “oh, that's perfect time for me to sit and relax and read.” Little did I know I wasn't able to because of all the sophisticated ways Peer writes, you don't want to miss any word in the sentence. Or you actually want to absorb what you just read instead of reading over the pages as many people do when they are taking a codeine cough medicine. So I had to stop. For a very long time. Four months to be exact.

But when I came back it took only two days to read it. The way Peer has the characters flow through the book. "The Mentor" was no different. It was like a battle of cat and mouse to see who will succumb first. Khan, the leader of the Nmen or Councilwoman Pearl a soft yet feisty woman who will not give up her power to anyone. Especially Khan. It was quite amusing with those two playing a game of tennis back and forth on flirting and hating each other and often doing both at the same time. Peer knows how to write sexual tension. A little too well. I was screaming in my head, "will you just tell them already!!!" And when they do, it almost comes out in the most unexpected places. I don't know if Peer is good more at sexual tension or taking the reader on a roller coaster ride where you don't know where the next drop is going to be.

I absolutely adore Peer's writing. It is like no other. Going through the journey through these worlds is always imaginative and wonderful. Like you want these worlds to exist. You never know what is going to happen, but you know it's going to be something magical.

So that it has taken me over 4 months to finish this book. I already purchased the next two because not only do I have to support a fellow author, she absolutely in my "book" (no pun intended) is one of the best writers I have had the joy of reading. Even though I am so far behind, I would keep reading as many as she is going to give.

But not with codeine cough syrup, that's for sure.😏

Jenna's Cookie Award: Her Dark Melody by Michelle Love

Her Dark Melody: A Billionaire Romance by Michelle Love

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I love reading Michelle Love books. I know what I'm jumping into. But reading Her Dark Melody, I had the faintest idea what I would get involved in. When I read the synopsis for the book, it said about a girl who captivates you with her voice. Being a professional singer myself, I thought "Okay, this could be cool." Little did I know this was going to be a thriller as well as and sizzling hot romance.
I absolutely loved the characters. Fell in love with them from the start, and this journey that Ms. Love puts you on, is like a roller coaster. There is so much going on, and twists and turns that you can't find the bar to hold onto.
Not only were there all these turning and going at a high speed, there was also loops that turn you upside down. And that is not just talking about the steamy sexy hot scenes Ms. Love personally knows how to go with just enough and then not be disappointed in the end. And I don't care if the person was reading what I was reading on my phone on the train. Too bad for him being nosy. They know that they're not doing a good thing but grow a little bit in the pants region from those sizzling scenes.
But it wasn't just about the sex, or the surprising hills going up and down on that roller coaster. It was also a majority of a woman who was a beautiful singer, who just happen to fall into a family of hurt and desire. And the sultry voice who takes over everyone whiles she's singing, just loves her new found family. No matter what.
I must say, the names where very unique in this book:Ebony, Atlas, Cormac, Fino. I must say my only problem was getting use to all the characters that came in and out of the story. But I absolutely grew to love the family
This was a complex read, I actually had to pay attention more. But I truly did enjoy how it rode smoothly uphill and downhill throughout. It was a great read. I did receive this advanced reader copy from the author for an honest review.

Jenna's Cookie Award: The Forbidden Sitter by Michelle Love

The Forbidden Sitter: A Billionaire Holiday Romance by Michelle Love

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I received an Advanced Copy to supply a honest review of the author's work.


From the very beginning Gannon has a surprise of a lifetime. A woman comes in his office and almost literary throws a kid at him and starts to leave saying "here, this is your's". Gannon was thrown off big time. Besides other things of bad luck happens to this hottie, Gannon gets confirmation that the boy is his. The minute he finds that out, his heart melts. But how does he take care of this child.
In comes Brooke, her brother is his best friend, and she ends up being the little boy's sitter.
Besides getting threats from her brother to Gannon, and the warning from Brooke saying her family will kill her, the undeniable happens. They fall for each other. This is where the book actually gives it hope. Love writes these characters with so much heart on their sleeves, you actually feel for them.
Besides her description of how undeniable adorable the little boy is, you also need a fan for all the hot and sexy parts of the two main characters going to bed. Numerous times. Which is perfectly fine with me. Sometimes even my toes curled imagining the descriptions Love authors.
Throughout the whole book, it was back and forth from both Brooke and Gannon how can they keep their love be kept a secret, yet second guessing everything. I didn't have a problem with it. In fact it kept on wanting me to keep reading more and more.
Me being a sucker for unique ways of ending the story and you just don't know how the author is going to do it, I was in love with how she ended it.
You always wish that a Billionaire would be in your life. And this one had a heart of gold being written so well. Wishing I could go home to one myself but only in my mind like how all authors wish you will finish a book written with such emotion. Always daydreaming for your Gannon.

Jenna's Cookie Award: Finding Sarah Miller by C.L. McGrath

Finding Sarah Miller: Book One "Finding" Series by C.L. McGrath



My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Finding Sarah Miller was a well written novel and pretty darn hot in a lot of the chapters. Sarah tried to find herself by going out on a road trip and is distracted by the most beautiful man that made her toes curl. I thought the character of Sarah was written well, with her doubts and paranoid thoughts like any other woman. You would think she would come off as annoying because all these good things are happening to her. (Especially in bed with her lover Marcus) But McGrath writes Sarah with a heart. And we actually see the trials and tribulations of her life, even though sometime very strange how everything fall into her lap perfectly. The heartache that she encounters is so true to life. Everyone who has had their heart broken and feel for her. I wish I could have Sarah's life. It flowed throughout the whole book.
Unfortunately it got a little too repetitive for me. I feel McGrath could of got her point out much less. Although I did not mind all of the hot sex scenes. Whoa. Very well written.
Finding Sarah Miller made me root for her throughout the book. And her questioning of "is this really happening" made it so much more realistic than a fairy tale. Just thought she could of found where she was a little earlier than the lengthy book. But have the utmost respect of actually writing a true realistic character who gets it all, the good, bad, and the everything.
I did receive a free copy of the book for a true and honest review.

Claiming Nina by Leslie Johnson

Claiming Nina by Leslie Johnson

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I received an Advanced Read Copy to submit an honest review.

I have always enjoyed books that Leslie Johnson writes. But this one “Claiming Nina” was a huge surprise from the start. The start already had suspense in it. Fleeing Nina from her rehearsal dinner, you gotta understand that her father was controlling her life and was forcing her into an arranged marriage. The fact she runs into a car and her getaway driver is her best friend hopeful for her not to get caught, being a Chicagoan, I could see them racing down the Kennedy to get to the bus station. But Nina had no idea where she was going but she got set up by her best friend and barely made it. Destination was a small town where everyone know’s your name. Got a job real quick, to only drop soda all over a very good looking man.

The book then goes into this dashing man trying to get to know Nina. (Who by that time changed her name to Amanda.) Adventures of playing cat and mouse, with some really sexy sex scenes in the middle, “Amanda” had to keep her guard up. She was trying to avoid the inevitable. Which is hard on everyone, yet everyone could predict where this story was going. She falls for Adam and his kids, but Adam can sense she’s hiding something.

Then BAM, surprise, the best friend comes back into the spectrum, but the surprise is he’s psycho. And want Nina to fall in love with him. Without spoiling it, I really did enjoy this story. Not only for the hot sex scenes, lol, but how the whole time you had no idea where this story was going. And I don’t explain everything because I want the reader to be as hooked as I was for finding out how is Ms. Johnson going to end the story, when she just brought in a completely different character than the lover and the psycho best friend.

Billionaire in Vegas by Summer Cooper

Billionaire in Vegas by Summer Cooper
Whenever you see that "Vegas" is in the title, you know everything in Vegas, stays in Vegas. Well sort of....Lacey was lost in the world, had nothing no money, no job, no boyfriend. Thought she was done with love. And just by chance her temp agency calls her to put her on assignment. To a really really really rich old man. But his son, the hottest thing ever, I mean his name his Jude, he's gotta be hot is a complete jerk to her. But she stays with the job anyways even though Jude only sees her as a gold digger.
Her boss sends her off to Vegas with her friends in one of his hotels and of course madness ensues when she finds out Jude is there. Lacey clashed with Jude, but after a drunken night in Vegas, as typical spoilers go in Vegas they get married. So Lacey had to make a decision to stay married to Jude to help him keep his inheritance, where he would give her half. A Billion dollars (yes we're getting high up there now, use to be a million, now it's a billion. She agrees, but only if they don't have to see each other.

As clique as it is, this story does have some pretty hot moments in it. Jude and Lacey have some fun, but Lacey tries to guard her emotions. And doesn't want to fall for the Billionaire, but she slowly sees the true Jude and how he was more than the money. Jude develops feeling for Lacey because he saw her as not being with him just for the money.

Besides some hot bedroom scenes, Ms. Cooper also puts some heart into the characters, that made me invested into them and the story. Of course that would never happen in a million years to have a job fall right into your lap for a Billionaire. Or course you're not going to fall in love with the assy son. But finding out more and more about the heart of the Billionaire, makes you want to feel good at the end. Yes, it was obvious that Vegas was going to get them together, but the end wasn't about being a Billionaire to Lacey. It was the heart of soul of a man, that just happen to be really hot, and trustworthy of Lacey and the reader.

Jenna's Cookie Award: Sin and Cider by Kimberly Reese

Sin and Cider by Kimberly Reese

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Not only am I a Chicagoan, love Cider, and love to sin, but Kimberly Reese I loved your novel! This debut novel is the quintessential way an Erotic Romance should be written. Not only do you have a unique setting at an Orchard, but you wrote REAL characters in your story. The sexual tension from the very beginning of the book, to the heartbreak, to the sex scenes, you will need to fan yourself because they are so hot, to the HEA that leaves you teary eyed. Reese gave us emotion that you can imagine seeing on her character's faces. I say bravo for this being your first book and being so enjoyable and made me happy you're coming out with the adventures of Langley next....can't wait. And P.S. I would go for a cider at anytime before I go for a beer!

Jenna's Cookie Award: Tomorrow by Haylee Thorne

LOVED IT- 

so carefully written to not know what is happening til the end

There is always an author that surprises you, there's twists and turns and you have no idea where this is going but you want more. Haylee Thorne's book Tomorrow is a perfect example of this. She starts off with a simple story of Raeva Ray starting the first day of her dream job as a nurse. And trouble was in her patients room when she entered. This beautiful man, Mika Kingsley and he totally sweeps her off her feet. What else are you suppose to do when this beautiful man is telling you that your beautiful, and that you will end up his. Raeva is blinded by his charm, his toe curling kisses, and how he just takes her and doesn't hear no for an answer. This man gets what he wants. And treats her like a princess. Of course you're going to ignore that he's a little creepy the way he has all her cosmetics she uses in his bathroom. Of course she joins the mile high club in his private jet. Of course you're going to ignore that something fishy is going on. I'm sorry but I was Raeva, I would milk it for what it's worth.  Raeva is so sweet and charming and innocence that she has blinders on. You don't care because their sex scenes is literary toe curling and super hot. Thorne writes so sneaky that you don't even know that she is giving you clues throughout the whole book. It's brilliant how you don't find out about Mika's past until the very end. And that's what is so awesome.

I know this is a series but I was not upset when it ended. It ended like how I like a book of a series ended. You're not pissed on the cliffhanger, even though more can be told in this story. Loved it.

Shameless M. Malone

Shameless by M. Malone

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Whoa! This book was crazy. And a perfect start of the adventure we're going to through with Lucia and Noah.
It did start a little slow. It did introduce Lucia very well and how she was a strong, independent woman who had something tragic happen to her when she was 15.
I personally think there were too many characters that were introduced with Noah's "security" team. I think not all of them needed to be named, but then again this is book one. So I don't know if all 4-5 of them needed to be introduced or not.
I started to really enjoy the book in the middle when Noah had so many urges to just grab her and kiss her and Lucia kept trying to avoid him and her feelings for him. A lot of tension, which worked very well.
Then what really got me is M. Malone mentioned that Lucia was 21. And I personally think it didn't needed to be added in. She was written so strong and had passion to find out who killed her brother, or take care of her Nonna, making herself grow in her career. I felt she was so much older than she was presented. It kind of ruined it for me a little when her age was mentioned.
The sex scenes were hot, but then again how did Lucia know all these things if she was only 21. I guess I'm just thinking of personal experience myself. I wish I knew what I was doing back then.
Once I got into the book and things were happening, I really was getting into it. I felt this is going in the right direction and I can't wait to read the next one.

Kidnapped by 2 Men Ménage Suspense Romance by Summer Cooper

I received an ARC copy to give an honest review. I gotta say, I always love a good Ménage book but this was a Ménage with a twist. It had a plot and characters I cared about. And they were the kidnappers. Who kidnapped a shell of a girl who wanted her boss, who then turns against her when the kidnappers came in. But oh this book was steamy. Although I did want the ending go a different way, probably because I felt there was a connection between one of the kidnappers and Lilly. But this is a great fast read!

OMG! I loved loved loved The Midnight Club by Michelle Love

The Midnight club by Michelle Love

My rating: 5 of 5 stars






This is one of the best books I have read in a very long time. I couldn't put it down. I was so engrossed with what was going on, that after the first part was over I didn't realize that the story wasn't over. And even though these boys were all billionaires (a group of gorgeous men all born on the same day) I was so into all of these characters and really wanted to figure out who was killing the loves of the boys in the club. I loved that this was a super hot erotic mystery. So well written, and all character maps were so planned out, I couldn't put it down. I've never read such a unique, exciting, and beautifully written world. Bravo Michelle. I received an Advanced Reader Copy for an honest review. And if being honest in how much I loved this book, then so be it!

Get it cheaper digital or even on Kindle Unlimited. But get it!
