Beg Me by Shiloh Walker

I have to say I really enjoyed this book. Not only was this story intense, but it was emotional as well.

Tania Sinclair lost her husband, and she was brutally raped not long afterwords by his brother. The memories of the attack have united with her memories of her late husband. It left her unable to move on in her sexual life. Tania decides to ask her friend, Drake,who happens to be her late husband’s best friend, to help her put the past behind her by having an affair. Tania knows she’ll be safe with Drake and she trusts him to know when to stop.

Drake has always loved Tania. They had been spending a lot of time together since her husband's death and he is utterly shocked when Tania approaches him about helping her move on. He desires her desperately, and just so happens to enjoy the kind of sexual role-playing she not only wants, but is looking for.

I thought this book was so well done and Shiloh Walker did a good job of showing the issues that can arise. I loved that fact that this was Tania's personal therapy and she needed to do this to make changes in her life.
The sex scenes have a tense and dangerous edge to them that gets your heart pounding. The plot was fantastic and I absolutely loved the way their feelings were projected through out the story. Their were some strong moments that almost brought me to tears.

Overall, it was a well-written. That the sex was hot and breathtaking. I will for sure read this again. Although some people wont read this because of the rape fantasy, I believe this story was more than that. It's about taking control of ones life, love, trust and looking forward to the future.

Atlantis Rising by Alyssa Day

A book about Warriors and Atlantis? Yes! I was jumping up and down. After reading this book I couldn't get enough and I am so glad I decided to buy the whole series at once. Yippee!

Alyssa Day brings a whole to new feel of the magical world of Atlantis. Suspenseful, action packed, fast-moving and; who can forget the romance. This is a great series and I have had on my to read list for a while. I can't believe I waited so long to start this.

These warriors from Atlantis were hot, hot, hot!! The characters were all amazing, with great and strong personalities. They all flow well together. Fell in love with every one of them.

Conlan, who is the prince of Atlantis, is coming to terms with what will be his place and rightful duties to the throne of Atlantis, but he's thrown for a loop. Riley who is a human and an empath is in some trouble. I couldn't have picked a better man to rescue Riley.

This story is packed with adventure, romance, magic, humor and who could forget the excitement! Alyssa Day gives a new exciting twist to this Alpha Male. Their is so much to Conlan and while he tries to do what is expected all he wants is his Riley. Riley is a take no s**t heroin. Spontaneous, loving, feisty and brave. Together they aren't just the perfect match ,but they make such a wonderful team.

Not only was I drawn to Conlan, but Lord Justice is on my to do list *laughs*. I mean he has blue hair! Overall I can't wait to read the next book - Atlantis Awakening to see what is in store for these Hot Warriors of Poseidon.

Holiday Bound by Beth Kery

What a steamy short Christmas read!!!! I have never read Beth Kery before and she didn't disappoint.

Angeline Kastakis is in the middle of a battle zone between her boyfriend Mitch and his son Alex. Mitch and Alex do not get a long, but when Mitch reaches out to Alex to bring his new girlfriend to Alex's resort, Alex does not know what to expect.

Angeline gets caught in a blizzard and Alex is the one that finds her in the ditch while she is on her way to the resort to meet Mitch. Not only does Alex have eyes for Angeline, but he wants her bound in his bed forever.

Kery brings the heat to melt the snow on this night when the blizzard starts. I don't think you could have asked for more from this couple. Not only was it sometimes emotional for these characters, but the way they connect was just outstanding. It was a great little treat and has opened me up for more titles by Beth Kery.

I would recommend this short read for all my Christmas ladies who wouldn't mind being bound in the dead of winter, with one really hot guy that can send heat racing through your veins. This story is currently free on amazon kindle. If you get the time its well worth checking out.

Backstage Pass (Sinners on Tour #1) by Olivia Cunning




Sex, Love and Rock, and did I mention hot sex? Who wouldn't want more?

Myrna Evans is a college professor who attending a conference. To her surprise she ends up running into her favorite rock band since they are staying at the same hotel.

Myrna feels an instant connection with composer, Brian Sinclair. What no one expected was that Brian would find his muse in Myrna. Can one night be enough for the both of them to fill their wild oats or will touring with the band finally get to Myrna.

After you have read so many novels some tend to get a tad on the boring side, but Backstage Pass brings in a fresh breath of air. It was different. No cowboys or bikers. It was totally rock and roll. For some reason while reading I was picturing being on the road in the late eighties and early nineties. Tour buses, groupies, and what being on tour is all about the fans, was more than described, it was brought to life. I was shocked that Myrna had such a wild side. Even with Brian is a big time rock star, he is just lovable. Myrna and Brian were a perfect match for the first book in the series.

Now not only do I want my own personal band member, I want to go on tour with these hot men. I am really looking forward to reading the next installment, Rock Hard. It made my night that it would be about lead singer, Sed Lionheart. **swoons** (Apr. 1, 2011) .

Atlantis Awakening by Alyssa Day

This is turning out not only to be an exciting series, but a fun-filled adventure.

I loved Ven. From the first page the action grabbed me along with attraction between Ven and Erin. I was sucked into Atlantis. The wit had me laughing out loud. The bond with the warriors was not only entertaining, but you can feel the depth of their feelings for each other.

Ven caught my attention in the first book with his sarcasm. Prince Vengence is Conlan's younger brother and protector. Ven has never got attached to any woman before. Well, that was until he met Erin the witch/gem-singer and they instantly became soul-melds which only happens only once in a life time. Erin is for sure his perfect match. I loved all the characters and I am really excited to find out how everyone is involved and how this story will play out.

Overall the story was an adventurous journey. Just enough adventure, romance and breath-taking emotions. Towards the end Lord Justice is missing. Will they find him? How long will it take? It's now time for me to journey back into Atlantis to find the blue haired warrior in Atlantis Unleashed.

I recommend this book and the others in this series.

Drink of Me by Jacquelyn Frank

I don't think anything I write could do this book justice. Jacquelyn Frank has created a super natural world with some of the most diverse characters I have ever seen. The story jumps out to you just from the first page. It not only left me wanting, but needing to know more about this characters and what is to become of them and their world.

Prime Reule has always been a composed and responsible when it comes to ruling his people. Until he meets  this small woman who was found lost and severely injured has no memory of who or what she is. Giving the small woman her name, Mystique. Mystique may have no memory, but she knows some important things by her instincts.

All characters were so well written. Jacquelyn Frank had them fitting the rolls perfectly. From the moment Reule and Mystique meet you can tell their relationship is heated and how they are drawn to each other.
A lot takes place in the book but they do what they have to do to find themselves in one another. And when they do give in to their desires hold on because the ride doesn't stop there. I already have a few of my favorite side characters and am anxiously awaiting to have them as lead characters. Action, emotion, and the ultimate fantasy world. With the strong romance and passion taking place between Reule and Mystique you can only loose yourself page by page.

I can't tell you enough how much I loved this new fantasy world. This book will have you turning page after page to find out what happens. If Jacquelyn Frank isn't on your reading list just yet, she should be. Book after book and she NEVER disappoints.

Wild Fire by Christine Feehan


This was my first Christine Feehan ever, and it was such a thrilling ride that I have added to read the rest of this series among some of her other work. Feehan makes living in the Amazon not only action packed but also sexy.

Leopard shifter Conner Vega is a leopard shifter who is part of a special group that just happens to eliminate all threats to the rain forest. On this mission Conner ends up re-meeting his mate, Isabeau Chandler. Although this isn't the first time the two have come face to face but it is the first time they are brought together after Conner's betrayal.

Conner is not only beautiful, but also very terrifying. I mean after all he is a leopard shifter. In this mission children have been kidnapped to force these tribes to move drugs through the Amazon. Conner and his men have been asked to take the operation out and rescue these children. Now that Isabeau back into Conner's  life it is time for them to give their love another chance and rekindle the passion they have had since first meeting.

Filled with passion, romance, suspense, and forgiveness. The emotions Freehan brought out were just unstoppable. Everything flowed so nicely from page to page. You not only experience what the characters are feeling, but the depth of their emotions. Of course whats a great story without a surprise, but with this book surprises helped make this a wonderful read.

Old characters are brought back in and from my understanding new ones will keep this series ongoing. Like I said this was my first book but I am in a hurry to start from the beginning of the series and I am looking forward to the next installment. I cannot wait to read about each one meeting their mates and the story of their journey to get to that wonderful place.

A great read for any shifter lover!

Rough, Raw and Ready by Lorelei James

Honestly speaking this is now one of my favorite series ever. Lorelei James pushes hot, steamy, erotic, and passion to a whole new level.

When Edgard Mancuso shows up on his old friend/ex lover's house,Trevor Glanzer is thrown for a loop. Trevor thought he would never see Edgard again so he moved on and married Chassie West. Now Chassie must decide what to do after she finds out her husband had a male lover that he has never told her about.
But, before Trevor has the chance to come clean with Chassie, she finds out. It honestly broke my heart and I felt bad for her. Just when you think she is out of the count, then she is right back in the saddle and decides to make the best of her marriage and the situation between Trevor and Ed.

All the characters are very likable and you get to see all their emotions. I thought it was great that it wasn't just another erotic romance, you got to know these characters from this book and the ones before it. Although Trevor, Edgard, and Chassie are the main story, there are side stories that keep you up with the Mckay and West families.

It went from witty to anger and steamy to emotional. You the chance to connect to all them in one way or another. It was for sure a page turner. I liked that you also got to know more about all of them then just some hot sex. Without a doubt in my mind I would recommend this book and the rest of the books in the Rough Riders series.

The Touch of Twilight by Vicki Pettersson




This series just gets better and better. I mean who wouldn't want to be this kick-ass superhero who everyone wants to keep under wraps or better yet even destroy.

Joanna is back! She is still trying to understand her powers and find her place in the Zodiac troop. It has only been a few months since her 25th birthday and the transformation that has changed her life forever. Then next stage of the prophesy is ready to happen.The question on everyone's mind is, Will her shadow half come into power?  Joanna's past love and a personal mistakes from the second book haunt her in this book.

So many great twists, adventures and there is so much more to come. The end of this series could live on forever. The plot was well-developed, the action scenes were seriously awesome. I loved the fact that she misses her past and doesn't really want it let it go. Decisions are made on who to let go and who to give a chance to. Personally, I was in the middle of if she would choose the love of her life or give her love to another agent. And when she finally chooses it was BAME!!! I actually cried for her. Some decisions in life are never easy but just then sometimes in the end it was the better decision.

I couldn't have wanted more in a series. Life, love, romance, humor, letting go, and strength. I mean I can go on and on about this book. I couldn't put this down or any other book in the series down for that matter. This is a must read for all the woman who ever wanted to be a superhero.

City of Souls by Vicki Pettersson



The Sign of the Zodiac series is on fire. This series gets better with each book. City of Souls is action packed and full of suspense that will keep you glued to the pages and turning them faster to get to the next part. Never a dull moment.

A war is raging in Las Vegas. Lives are on the line. In this book the lines blur between good and evil, love and hate, and the chances of her escaping are slim to none. When one of the changeling is hurt, now Joanna Archer must save this young girl because if she dies, the Light will die with her.

This book kept me on the edge of my seat. To see how Jo has grown and trying to do her job, even as she struggles against the darkness within herself. The story was on the dark side but captivating. This book had me dying to know what is to become of Jo and her father, her and Warren and her love life. I didnt really like the unanswered questions I had but that just makes me more excited to hurry up and read the next installment of this fantastic series, Cheat the Grave.

Nightshade by Andrea Cremer

I have to say this is one of the best YA novels I have ever read! The world Cremer has created is not only magical but gripping. I couldn't put this down.

Calla is the alpha of her Nightshade pack. They are called Guardians (both wolf and human, able to shift at will),are here protect humans. Now the time is coming for a new pack to be formed. Since she was born she knew she was destined to mate alpha Ren. Long lines of tradition has made her accept her future with the alpha but it all becomes very complicated for her when she ends up meeting Shay.

Not only is Calla drawn to him, but interacting with him is forbidden in there world. The triangle in Night Shade was very well written. Torn between two men who can make her burn and want. What is a girl to do?

This isn't just another shape shifter book or a teen love story. It about growing up, standing up for what you believe in, and finding out the real truth beyond the history of the Guardians. This book is sexy even minus the sex. It keeps you hooked from the first page.

After reading this awesome book I wanted to join Callas pack. I'm really looking forward to the next book in the series, Wolfsbane. I am utterly dying to know where Shay has been taking to, If Ren ends up with Calla, and finally the truth of the Guardians  will reviled. The release date just cant come soon enough. Like I said earlier, this is one of the best YA books I read all year and honestly you should read it too. I recommend this book to not only the YA readers but all the adults who love romance, shifters and a non stop adventure.

The Taste of NIght by Vicki Petterson



After reading the first book in this series I was so excited to start this one. I found a lot of mixed reviews on it but I gave it go and loved it. The Scent of Shadows was a solid start to this paranormal series, but The Taste of Night brings on a whole new roller coaster ride. Now that the characters have been introduced, I dove right into the action packed book, which The Taste of Night does right in the first chapter.

Joanna Archer's life changed forever since the night her sister died. Now she struggles to adjust to her new lifestyle and the fellow Zodiac members and try to win the war against the Shadows. In this book, Jo frequently finds herself at odds with herself and the Light side and her Shadow side. She is trying to help Light win the war over the Shadow side instead of trying to find the balance in between. The Shadows themselves want to win Joanna over to their side and if she doesn't join they will simply destroy her. I had mixed feelings about Jo in this book. She wasn't as open and you can tell she is still haunted by her past and still trying to find her place throughout this story. Jo tends to make a lot of personal and professional mistakes and tends to act in her own self interest.

The world that Vicki Pettersson has created is coming together perfectly. It was for sure a step up from the first book in the series. I found this book even more enjoyable and exciting, and I am looking forward to starting the next book in the series, The Touch of Twilight.

Sins of the Heart by Eve Silver

Sins of the Heart is the first novel I read by Eve Silver and she did an Amazing job.

Dagan is one of the Underworld’s Soul Reapers who is trying to find out who is responsible for his brother death. Roxy is sworn to protect the human race and Dagan. Joining forces is something neither of them expected.

Dagan and Roxy fit together perfectly. Their banter, flirtation, and loyalty throughout the book pushed this wonderful book into the favorites. I loved every minute of this book.

After the first chapter i quickly became addicted and couldn’t put it down. Eve Silver definitely brought the suspense, chemistry, romance and emotion out her characters.

I loved this book !! This is a must read along with her next two books in the trilogy Sins of the Soul and Sins of the Flesh.

Cheat the Grave by Vicki Petterson

After reading the first book in this series I was so excited to start this one. I found a lot of mixed reviews on it but I gave it go and loved it.

Cowgirls Don't Cry by Lorelei James

This is a truly addicting series. It was kind of disappointing on how it starts off. I mean Brandt finds Jessie moving on, so to speak and asked to join. The beginning made Jessie look like she was easy when she is far from that. The story begins to unfold from chapter 1.

Brandt has always been in love with his brother's widow, but Jessie hasn't been ready to move on until now. Hit with her late husbands wild ways and a child is brought in for Jessie and Brandt to take care of for the four months while the mother is getting her life back together after getting her second DUI. Now Brandt and Jessie are not only taking care of this child, but Brandt moves in to do it. Can being to close to the one you love make the other see how right this is?

I absolutely loved Brandt. He is sweet, lovable, and just down right sexy. Jessie is strong, independent, and ready for someone who wants her. You couldn't help but enjoy this emotional ride right along side both of them. This was a more emotional book then the others have been but if you read the others you know why it had to be. I had my box of tissues right beside me but don't worry it's not all tears. This sexy cowboy can have any girl ready to saddle up and settle down. I was pleased how we got to know more about Brandt and Jessie, understand them, and yes I rooted for their happy ending.

If you liked the previous books you will love Brandt and Jessie. I am really looking forward to reading the next book in the series and dying to know who will be the lucky stars of it.

Blood Trinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love

Blood Trinity is the first in the new Belador series and introduces you to a world where there are demons and supernatural beings from different worlds walking among the humans. This book was fasted paced. I couldn't bring myself to put it down. Adventure after adventure for Evalle Kincaid. I was drawn in from the first page and tried so hard not to read it in one sitting.

Evalle Kincaid is not only a Belador she is of a mixed breed. Despite the personal risks that she faces, she is willing to save the lives of the other Beladors. Through out the book Kincaid proves herself to be honorable, brave and loyal to her Belador family.

Without telling anyone what happens, the book involves free will, enemies that have suddenly have a lot of power, and who can forget the personal rivalry that could put everyone at risk. I would have liked to see more of the romance that Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love are known for. Overall, Blood Trinity is a fantastic start to a new series. I am truly looking forward to reading more of the Belador series and about Evalle Kincaid.

If you love Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love's writing you, will love this book for sure.

"Atlanta has become the battlefield between human and demon. All her life, Evalle has walked the line between the two. Her origins unknown, she’s on a quest to learn more about her past and her future.

But when a demon claims a human and there’s no one else to blame, Evalle comes under fire. It’s no longer a question of learning about herself, it’s a question of survival. Through the underground of an alternate Atlanta where nothing is as it seems to the battleground of where her VIPER allies have become the force that is now hunting her, Evalle must prove her innocence or pay the ultimate price.

But proving her innocence is the least of her problems if she doesn’t stop the coming apocalypse. The clock is ticking and it’s about to become a lot hotter in Atlanta."

The Scent of Shadows By Vicki Pettersson

This is a new series to me, but it was totally intriguing. Giving this series a chance  was well worth it. And I wasn't disappointed. From the first page it captures your interest. Then as the story starts progressing it becomes wow. Jo hasn't had a dull moment and I loved that. She was written as strong but broken. Once her story starts to play out you can't help but want to be there for her. This is probably one of the best books I have had the pleasure to read this year.

I loved the setup of the opposing Shadow and Light zodiac teams. Lots of action, sarcastic remarks, emotional and some love. Just when you think things are heading one way , Vicki Pettersson throws you for a big loop. Two leading males come into play, but not enough romance. Some secrets are found out and it makes you want to read the next book asap. 

Joanna Archer, finds out that she is the daughter of the leader of the Shadow Zodiac, while her mother is the a star sign of the Light Zodiac. She is destined to do many things but Jo will have free will to see what side of the Zodiac she will fall on. Being Joanna is tough because she possesses special skills from both sides

For me all these little details that get revealed part by part was enough to hook me alone, but what made me purely addicted to this book was how bad I had to know what was going to happen to Jo. I couldn't put this down.

Now I am super excited to see what will happen to Joanna Archer in the next book, The Taste of Night.

"When she was sixteen, Joanna Archer was brutally assaulted and left to die in the Nevada desert.

By rights, she should be dead.

Now a photographer by day, she prowls a different Las Vegas after sunset—a grim, secret Sin City where Light battles Shadow—seeking answers to whom or what she really is . . . and revenge for the horrors she was forced to endure.

But the nightmare is just beginning—for the demons are hunting Joanna, and the powerful shadows want her for their own . . . "

One Wild Wedding Night by Leslie Kelly

Ok, I confess... I mostly wanted to read this book for the continued story of Bridget Donahue, from the book Overexposed. Although I enjoyed the short story, it still didn't tell me what happened and left it hanging. The rest of the little stories were a fun read. This take place after Nick and Izzy's wedding night. You get a look at what these five women will encounter. I simply liked the fact that they were all tied together. I was looking for how some of these stories would end or were they the beginning to their own books I am still not clear on this. The short stories were hot, but left me wanting more. So, now I am on to looking for the individual books of these Five women so I can maybe get some answers.

"This is one super-sexy wedding night these five women will never forget! Meet the lucky bridesmaids:

A totally hot FBI agent offers his full-body protection to very willing witness Bridget Donahue….

Stripper Leah Muldoon bares it all for a sexy stranger in a limo, much to their mutual satisfaction!

Wild big-city attorney Mia Natale is in for the best sex of her life. But who is that other guy?

When dancer Vanessa McKee unexpectedly sees a man from her past, they rediscover their insatiable lust!

A breathless night in the arms of a seductive European

lover should definitely spice up Gloria Santori's marriage…."

Overexposed by Leslie Kelly

This was a great little read. I really enjoyed the characters.

"Isabella Natale is living a double life. By day she turns out desserts in the family bakery. But at night she transforms into The Crimson Rose, Chicago's hottest exotic dancer, an enigmatic siren whose velvet mask and G-string drive men wild. Nobody knows about her secret—not even Nick Santori, the strip club's hot new bodyguard…and her first crush. He'd always treated little "Izzy" as just another sweet kid. But there's nothing sweet about his sizzling reaction to Rose….

So what's a girl to do but show the man of her dreams that while it's okay to look, it's much better to touch?"

I loved the way Isabella was written. She was strong, independent, and family oriented. Nick being the man she has always loved has his own trials and tribulations to get passed, but Izzy is all grown up and is ready to have something more and oh boy does Nick get more then he asked for. You got the chance to know their family and friends which made it more personal for me. There is also a side story that I was quickly involved in and dying to know what happens.

I believe their will be a next book to catch you up on Izzy and Nick. Also, I'm looking forward to the next couple of stories about the side characters that were mentioned. I mean who doesn't like happy endings?

Ecstasy in Darknes by Gena Showalter




This was my first book in the Alien Huntress series, and I have to say I was so pleased I wasn't lost. It was a wonderful treat for me. A strong, sexy Alpha hero who wants the strong, independent heroine with every bone in his body. While not knowing where things are going with them takes this book on a joyride. To top it all off , the love scenes were so steamy.

Ava Sans and Noelle Tremain are the best of friends who are trying to move up in the ranks of Alien Investigation Removal (AIR). Finally they are called in to take down the one and only Victor McKell. They think McKell is unstable and psychotic. Now the question is, are these two trainees ready to take down the former leader of a vampire army?

Ava ends up teasing and taunting McKell and boy is she surprised when he arrives on her doorstep and wants to help Ava and AIR apprehend the alien queen who is running around passing along a disease and causes the infected to crave eating flesh. Getting a taste of Ava's blood wasn't part of the plan, but when McKell does and finds out Ava is his mate he doesn't want to let her out of his sight.

Ecstasy in Darkness is filled with not only witty comments but tenderness, love, friendship and who can forget the steamy scenes that can fog up anyone's glasses. I couldn’t get enough of McKell! He was possessive , yet only had a softer side for his Ava. Ava was a bit too much to handle in certain parts. I mean who wouldn't want this Alpha male taking over all you senses?

Ecstasy in Darkness is a must read! I'm really excited to start from the beginning and catch up on this series, but I am also looking forward to reading more of this series. So many unanswered questions that I am super excited to have answered.

Crave by J.R. Ward

I am a big fan of J.R. Ward and waiting for this book was painful. Finally read it and it blew my mind. It was different. Started out on the slow side but once it started going, I couldn't put it down. Not only was it full of action, but the characters grow throughout the book. I liked that we got a chance to dip into some new characters and the return of some from the first book, Covet.

This book continues the story of Jim Heron who is tasked with coming in to a person's life when they're at a crossroads and helping them choose the right path. The decision of these seven people will decide if the souls of everyone on Earth (and those who've passed on) will belong to Heaven or Hell.

The attraction between Issac and Grier is HOT, there's just something that was missing that I just couldn't put my finger on. Issac was a true southern gentlemen when it came to Grier. It was really heart melting when he picks up her purse and cleans it for her. I mean who wouldn't want a man who melts your heart just by doing the most simplest task. Isaac and Grier's relationship progressed really quickly, I still thought they were the perfect match for each other.

I really like this series and I am hoping it only gets better. I am curious to see who Jim will help save next.

Rough, Raw and Ready by Lorelei James

Honestly speaking this is now one of my favorite series ever. Lorelei James pushes hot, steamy, erotic, and passion to a whole new level.

When Edgard Mancuso shows up on his old friend/ex lover's house,Trevor Glanzer is thrown for a loop. Trevor thought he would never see Edgard again so he moved on and married Chassie West. Now Chassie must decide what to do after she finds out her husband had a male lover that he has never told her about.
But, before Trevor has the chance to come clean with Chassie, she finds out. It honestly broke my heart and I felt bad for her. Just when you think she is out of the count, then she is right back in the saddle and decides to make the best of her marriage and the situation between Trevor and Ed.

All the characters are very likable and you get to see all their emotions. I thought it was great that it wasn't just another erotic romance, you got to know these characters from this book and the ones before it. Although Trevor, Edgard, and Chassie are the main story, there are side stories that keep you up with the Mckay and West families.

It went from witty to anger and steamy to emotional. You the chance to connect to all them in one way or another. It was for sure a page turner. I liked that you also got to know more about all of them then just some hot sex. Without a doubt in my mind I would recommend this book and the rest of the books in the Rough Riders series.

Water Bound by Christine Feehan

This is my first Christine Feehan book ever and I fell in love. It was different, magical, and just enough romance to curl your toes. This is now one of my favorite books!!!

It makes you look at autism in a different light. Rikki was such an amazing female. Nit only strong, but gifted with the element of water. You could feel the affinity and love of water that Rikki felt. The water became her safe haven. You can't help to fall in love with her.

Lev had a past as a cold-blooded killer, and was a dangerous man, but she looked into his heart and saw the man he wanted to be. She was never afraid of him and always stood her ground. Some people deserve a second chance at life and with that she gave it to Lev.

Rikki and Lev found that connection that was beyond belief. The way their connection grows along with trust, faith, and love it is just amazing. Just when you think Rikki will never give in, she lets herself get lost in him. The way they can look in each others eyes and find that peace is what ever girls dreams of.

Lev didn't try to change Rikki to fit him, he changed himself to fit her and her life. Finding that out was sweet, settling and romantic. She needed constancy and routine, and he understood that and was able to work with it. On his part he gave her the emotional bond that she never got. Lev is the dangerous man but Rikki isn't scared. She feels safe and protected. He's also a gentle, loving man with her. Who wouldn't want Lev as their love.

I am really looking forward to reading the next book in the series, Spirit Bound. I can only see this series getting better and better.
