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: More Than A Slave

More Than A SlaveMore Than A Slave by Anaelle Gadeyne

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Reading some of the reviews on how this is degrading. Yes it was a little violent but it was a FICTIONAL world where this slavery does not exist in reality. I feel a lot of people are bring it down because they are comparing it to non-fiction world.

I received this ARC copy to give an honest review. I loved it. I was expecting romantic fluff thinking the book would be a story about a slave and her master. Boy was I wrong.

Yes it is a little gruesome and violent but it also included a woman (Aria, love the characters name) and her strong characterization of speaking up even if that resulted in punishment. And when she falls into the hands of Alexander Anderson and the rumors of how horrible his family, it goes from there. Aria thinking that she will probably will die soon.

The romance comes where Alexander and Aria have a game of "cat and mouse" where they drive each other mad but also includes sexual tension. Throughout the book it was suspenseful because you never knew if Alexander was going to go off his word and abuse her because of his anger issues. But Aria still pushes him back and forth throughout.

Aria is well written because of her sensitivity and her brashness against Alexander. Which the rest of the family believe if he hadn't killed her by now, she must mean something to him.

It was a very nice change of pace in the romantic genre. The only issue I had was when a character spoke in POV and the paragraph later the other character's POV. It got a little confusing.

And the fact that I couldn't put it down, even at work, I believe I found this novel a surprisingly good read.

Jenna's Cookie Award: Elin Peer

Elin Peeris becoming one of my favorite authors. The Accidental Slave was a really great story. The Accidental Slave: Aya's Story (The Slave Series #1)The Accidental Slave: Aya's Story by Elin Peer

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Wonderfully complex

This story was so original with making a whole country up that you would never want to step a foot in. The main characters are so torn but made for each other. It's a beautiful story how they go through the bad and ugly and kept finding each other after denying their feelings for each other. I want to keep reading the series.

I look forward to reading more and more of her books.

Jenna's Cookie Award: Bouquet of Gardenias



This is a MUST read if you are Erotic (I mean REALLY Erotica fans) I'm only half way through this and I am just hooked. Nothing is forgotten in each paragraph. It is super, super, super hot. Just beware of getting a little (No really ALOT) turned on. And Ms. Kemp's first novel. If there was a series, I would of bought the whole thing. She totally makes me feel jealous.😛
