Not a Dragon's Standard Virgin
Isabelle, has always been considered "different". She has 2 sisters that do not look like her and Isabelle is taller than most of the women in town. The towns folk think that she is the result of her mother having an affair with a Fae. She knows her mother would never have betrayed her husband willingly. With her mother dead and the town believing that she is Fae, no one has offered to marry her yet. She just wants to live, have a family and her own home. Her home life is not pleasant. Her own father, or who she thinks is her father, treats her like nothing more than a servant. Always calling her names and treating her badly. Her sisters love her but are starting there own lives. On top of the problems at home, there is a dragon attacking the village and surrounding area. The town has been sending virgin girls to appease it. Now the town is looking at Isabelle as the next sacrifice. Isabelle knows she will be sent to her death if they choose her. So she need to make a decision, go when the town asks and die for people that hate her or make it so she can not even be considered for a VIRGIN sacrifice.
Jon, kills demons. He was born and bred to do this task. Being a dragon in the shape of a human, he can blend into the human villages and finds the demons in what ever form they take. In this village, the demon has taken the form of a dragon. He will kill this demon and avenge his family and move on again. While in the town, he sees a beautiful tall woman. His attraction is strong and he hasn't had an attraction this strong for hundreds of years. After a hot bath and a good meal the attraction is growing, and when he gets an usual request from the young woman, how can he say no?
This was a really good book. I loved the authors style of writing and the way you are transported to a time where dragons, demons and Fae are just a part of everyday life. Isabelle is in a no win situation. If she does nothing she knows she will die and if she loses her virginity she will never be wanted by any man and she will be known as a whore. She would rather be a live whore than a dead virgin so, she embarks on a mission to find a man, but when she is thought of so badly, it is easier said than done. Wonderful story, wonderfully written and even some pretty hot scenes!! Loved it would love to read more by this author!

Review of Taming Her Racy Ways - Racy Nights 5 by Tara Rose
Taming Her Racy Ways - Racy Nights 5
Marisol and Rafe are in love. Rafe a senior in high school, 18 yrs old and Marisol 14yrs and too young for Rafe. Reluctantly and with pressure from family, he breaks up with young Marisol. Even though they had not done anything sexual together, no one believes them and for 18yrs there attraction never waivers but are kept apart by Rafe's family. Marisol has always wanted Rafe. Rafe has always wanted Marisol.
Marisol, leaving a bar, knows her car is on it's last leg. On her way home, it starts to die. She knows that she is not going to make it but can make it to the garage to get it repaired again. She sees the garage, and also sees that Rafe is the only one there. The tension between the two is huge. Nether admitting their attraction is still there. Rafe takes her home when the sirens go off. A twister is hitting Racy. Running to the safety of Marisol's basement. Being scared and in close confines, brings back memories and feeling thought long gone. After the destruction of downtown Racy, the two go and help out. Finding that only buildings were destroyed and all their loved ones are safe, brings to two back together for one spectacular night. The two have dreamed of this for 18 yrs. In the morning, Marisol thinks maybe they can finally be together as a couple, like they had wanted to so long ago. Rafe, still listening to family, loves Marisol but listens to his family and doesn't see how they can work out.
After being with the one man she has dreamed of and now Rafe not talking with her, she gets back into work. Ellis, working with the town counsel, has know Marisol for a while. Single, and knowing he wants to get to know her more, they go car shopping and have a great day out. A attraction is there and Ellis wants to explore it. His involvement with BDSM clubs, and Marisol's interest in learning about it puts them together in a way they could never imagine. Can Rafe get over his family's negative reaction to Marisol? Will Marisol have to choose between 2 very different but sexy men? Can Ellis learn to love a sub and give Marisol all that she dreams of?
Hot read, with lots of drama and tension. I enjoyed the read but kept getting pissed of at Rafe. His family is a big influence and he has ignored Marisol, even though he has loved for this entire time. But saying that it goes two ways. Marisol did the same as well. Ellis just happens to fall into the right place and the right time to bring the 3 together. The 3 make a great team or "couple". Hot read, adults only MFM scenes. Thoroughly have enjoyed this series so far.

Review of Good Enough to Trust by Zara Stoneley
4 out of 5 stars for second book in the Good Enough Series. Adult sexual
content that is guaranteed to leave you squirming in your seat for
more.
Sophie has finally decided it's time to grow up and face her demons. Otherwise she will never be able to find her happily ever after just as her friends Dane, Holley and Charlie have in Good Enough to Share. She knows that she can't go back and fix her what happened to her parents when she was younger, but she can do some soul searching and figure out why she walked away from what was once the best relationship she ever had.
Sophie just wants to go for a walk, when she comes upon some cows. It's a good thing Will comes upon her before she gets any more aggressive about trying to move the cow that is really a bull out of her way. It's especially good since Will is easy on the eyes, has muscles to spare and is only thick in the places that make a woman walk funny in the morning in a wonderful way. This farmer is looking for more than just a good time with Sophie, but is full of surprises. He's also looking to show he knows how to have the most fun possible. Sophie isn't against it, she just never expected Will to introduce her to the world of menage. She may have not expected it but that won't stop her from having screaming fun orgasmic time.
What Sophie didn't plan on doing while she was soul searching was visiting that old flame that once burned so bright. That doesn't stop him from searching for her while she is in town. Ollie can't stay away, even if Sophie already has Will. He has too much pride to tell her why he never came after her all of those years ago, and he just doesn't know if he even has it in him to even want to try again.

Review of Plague of Dissent by Nic Taylor
A Plague of Dissent
by
Nic Taylor
A
fast paced thriller, bursting with political intrigue and corruption.
It paints a picture of the UK, where media companies hack into personal
communications at will, in search of their next headline. Of politicians
lining their pockets with falsified expense claims and crooked
practices operate within the police force. Where government contracts
can be bought and sold by those that have the Prime Ministers ear, that
to, on sale for the right price; and where banks and corporations make
millions at the expense of the man in the street.
A story of greed and corruption; where riots and civil unrest are turning the country upside down and a small group of men attempting to use this anarchy that is spreading across the country to further their own agendas.
Into this nightmare scenario are dragged a young man Adam, his girl friend Isobel and his brother Dan a professional rugby player and England wing forward. They are pursued by the faceless men who believe they are party to information that could compromise their mission and have two choices, to run or, to turn and fight for their lives.

This
is not the type of book I usually read, but I enjoyed it. It was a
little slow for me to get into, but if you hang in there you're sure to
enjoy the story too. This is the first book I've read by this author
but I'm sure it won't be the last.
I rate this book 3 1/2 stars

Review of Logan and Jenna by RE Butler
4 out of 5 stars. Steamy adult content only meant for mature readers
When Logan agreed to be the designated driver for some of his pack buddies, he never thought he'd be saving anyone's life, let alone the life of his true mate. Jenna has been left for dead, but she kept her wits about her and kept reciting the true mate spell in hopes that it would bring the one person that could save her to her rescue. After a very interesting Code F, Logan brings Jenna home to stay in the human world.
There are some complications that these two have to deal with though as they are getting to know each other. Such as Jenna's crazy ex may be plotting against her. There's the gang that kidnapped her and left her for dead still running about. There are some side effects of the Code F that have some fun and others scary side effects on Jenna. Poor Logan just wants to give her time to adjust to things and typical male only has two things on his mind. Her safety...and you know the other!
This was a good story and I appreciated being able to touch base with several people from the previous stories without having to go to far into back stories. So that means that yes, one can read this story separate from the series and not feel completely lost.

Jenna Odile planned to spend the eve of her twenty-fifth birthday partying with her friends before she cast a spell to find her truemate. The last thing Logan Anderson wanted to do with his Saturday evening was watch over the young male wolves in his pack while they attended a dance in hopes of finding their mates.
Jenna is kidnapped and shackled in Iron. left in the woods presumed dead she has cast her spell for her true mate. Logan knows one thing he must find a woman he has never met. What comes next is R.E. Butler Signature writing style! Hold On!
Having read every book by R.E. Butler, I was not let down. Fast paced action, hot sex. I highly recommend this book!

she had me laughing many times ! Her and little pug are one of a kind!!
Although the author has you laughing there was many parts that had you
scared out of your mind and a few parts that got me angry ! This is truly a case of good cop, bad cop and the mafia ! :)

Ben knows who she is from the start, just doesn't realise the promise he made will cost him more than a job. This is a sweet story, with some heat, about 2 people who learn to trust and love again. Good read!

Review of Hell Hound by Kaylie Austen
HellHound
This is the story of Selene a girl born into the higher ranks of her society and from birth expected to rise to be part of the ruling body.
Selene however wants more and is attracted to a man who can show her
life outside of her protected world. Just as Selene is settling into
her new role an unexpected tragedy strikes and changes everything she
thinks she knows and affects everyone she loves.
I enjoyed this story, you get settled
into the fantasy world without to much preamble, whilst it is mainly a
fantasy novel it has a strong element of a murder mystery to it that did
keep me guessing. Selene is quite likable although you would initially
think her to be a bit clueless she ends up being very resourceful and
quite ruthless when needed. This book is written to be suitable for
young adults however from time to time I found I had trouble keeping
track of who was who especially when it came to the transference of
powers after death so I'm not sure how a younger person would find it.
Overall I would give this 4 out of 5 stars
