Inordinate Desire by Scarlet Wolfe ♥ Release Day & GIVEAWAY ♥ (Contemporary/Erotic Romance)

One Urge, One Plea, Keep Me Trilogy must be read prior to Inordinate Desire.

In this addition to the One Urge, One Plea, Keep Me Trilogy, Damon and Alayna are learning to find the balance in themselves and their newfound relationship.

After acquiring Vasser Publishing, Damon is forced to put in countless hours at the office, which leaves Alayna time to wonder if she is falling short in meeting his desires.

She is secretly curious, wanting Damon to take her farther into the sexual world he once played in, but Damon is rediscovering Reed, believing that side of him is what Alayna yearns for.

Her brother, Curtis, has a profound reason to disapprove of Alayna and Damon’s relationship and is determined to get her away from the man she has committed her future to.

Alayna’s loyalty to Damon is put to the ultimate test, forcing her to make a decision that no one should ever have to make. What will she decide when seconds matter most? And will this passionate couple, who love and honor at a depth beyond reason, finally have their happily ever after?

This novel is for a mature audience due to descriptive sexual scenes and harsh language.
 
Damon's POV:

“I’m sweaty, and you’ve already showered,” I say.

“I like you sweaty.”

I growl lightly and run my nose down her neck. She smells insanely good, but my cock is twitching to dirty her up again. Alayna wearing summer clothes makes it that much harder to keep my hands to myself, so I run my tongue along her bare shoulder.

My hands slide up the waist of her thin tank top, and when they reach her tits, nipples jut out against them. Taking hold, I pinch the hard peaks between my fingertips and wait for the sound that displaces the gentleman in me.

“Damon.” My name sails through a whimper as her head falls back. I groan when I recall what I did to her legs not hours ago.

“Precious, I hurt you earlier.”

Her head flies upward, and she studies my eyes as a panic fills hers. “Then we’ll do something else.”

“Are you sure?”

“Since when do you ask?”

“Since right now.”

She smiles, but it’s faint, and I’m not sure what is happening. Dropping to her knees, she starts to pull down my athletic shorts.

“Shower first,” I say, clasping my hands over hers.

Alayna stands, and as she crosses her arms, she gives me a look that is a combo of determination and defiance. “Then I’m taking another one with you.”

A slow grin spreads from my mouth as I yank her to me. “Damn, it’s a turn-on when you give me attitude. It’s hot, baby.” My lips land on hers, and I don’t ask. I take, which is obviously what she wants right now. Women confuse the hell out of me.
 
One Urge, One Plea, Keep Me Trilogy Set (One Urge, One Plea, Keep Me Trilogy, #1-3)
“Tie me up, so I can be free.” –Alayna.

Erotica romance author and owner of one of the largest publishing companies, Damon Lear, has a secret that keeps him out of relationships and into behavior that is taboo to many. He is willing to set his strict rules aside for one memorable night with romance writer, Alayna Wynn, who he meets at his friend’s wedding. He fails at propositioning her, but they share one heated kiss, and he assures her they will meet again.

Damon gets his opportunity to seduce her when he rescues Alayna, keeping her from being stranded in an airport. Unable to leave his penthouse for days, she discovers it is impossible to resist the handsome, mysterious man who wants nothing more than to make her submissive.

When Alayna’s needs are not met, they both try to move on, but Damon sees that living the way he did before she walked in and out of his life is now impossible. He lures her back, and Alayna falls deeper into his world of BDSM. She is surprised to find it thrilling and wants to please Damon more than ever, being a willing participant in his hot fantasies.

Their relationship is soon threatened when details from Damon’s past are leaked to the media, forcing him to share with her his darkest secrets. Exes resurface, family interfere, and paparazzi stalk them, causing chaos. During it all, Damon battles to hold on to control by pushing Alayna sexually, introducing her to new, enthralling experiences. He soon realizes he’s losing the hold on his heart when he witnesses Alayna fighting for the both of them and submitting to him completely.

This is a sexy, steamy erotica romance that will leave you wanting more.

For a mature audience due to explicit sexual scenes and harsh language.
::: Standing ovation :::

This is quite possibly THE best story I have ever read.

This series is comprised of three books which should be read in order, and each one will need to be read in order to gain the full story.

The writing is fantastic. Scarlet weaves in the perfect amount of conflict, sarcasm and suspense. Technically, it is written very well with minimal proofreading issues.

We read the story from the respective points-of-view of Alayna and Damon. These two could not be more different from each other, and yet a series of circumstances brings them together for a chance encounter that changes their lives forever.

The story has a strong BDSM undertone. Normally I feel sort of "eh" toward books in that genre, but, in my opinion, this one used BDSM really as an illustration to show the growth and change in the characters as the story progressed.

Some mystery is sprinkled more and more from the middle to the end, and the way Scarlet reveals teeny tiny bits at a time had me DYING to find out what in the world happened to Damon in his past! (And, I must say, I never saw it coming!)

Speaking of HOT, the love scenes are AMAZING, and there is no shortage of them. Nope, Alayna and Damon cannot seem to keep their hands off of each other. No two scenes were exactly the same, or similar for that matter, which really held my interest. Again, noticing the role the BDSM played in the scenes as the book went along made it very enjoyable to read.

I actually got a smiley, warm, fuzzy feeling at the end of the book, especially with the epilogue. I was hoping this story would have an uber-happy ending, and by golly it did. I could not have imagined a better way to leave Alayna and Damon.

I would absolutely, without a doubt, read ANYTHING written by Scarlet Wolfe!

(As a side note, the trailer for this trilogy is AWESOME!)

Lights to My Siren by Lani Lynn Vale ♥ Review, Q&A, Book Tour & GIVEAWAY ♥ (Contemporary Romance)

Lights To My Siren
You’re The Lights…

Sebastian had one rule.
No women on the back of his bike. Period.
The one time he broke that rule, he killed the woman that was carrying his child.
Then comes Baylee Roberts. She makes Sebastian want to break every single rule he’d ever implemented. Hell, but she even makes him consider that dreaded H word. A helmet.

To My…

Baylee Roberts innocently walked into her bathroom never expecting that she’d find a man in there. It is her bathroom after all, and she lives alone.
From the instant he placed his hat on her head to protect her from the sun, Baylee’s mind becomes filled with thoughts of a certain biker.
She really shouldn’t go there. There’s no telling what kind of dangerous things he does for The Dixie Wardens MC.

Siren…

Nothing is ever as easy as it should be. Their relationship’s one of them.
Baylee’s brother is a cop. Baylee’s father is a cop. Which inevitably means that Baylee’s going to have certain hang-ups about being with a man like himself.
Sebastian has a lot on his plate with his busy job as a firefighter, a single father, and the vice president of The Dixie Wardens MC.
Not enough, though, to keep him away from Baylee.
When a series of arsons rattle their hometown and puts Sebastian’s life on the line, Baylee finally realizes the only fire Sebastian can’t put out is the one inside her heart.
Once again, Lani wrote one heck of a HOT story!

Sebastian is a different breed of alpha. In fact, I think he is one of the most alpha-alphas I have read. I honestly wasn't sure about him at first, with regard to whether or not I liked him due to his past actions (no spoilers here) but the rest of the story sealed it for me; I'm a Sebastian fan!

Baylee was great because, in spite of her physical conditions, she loved living life and did so on her own terms. Her conditions definitely added a unique element to the story and I eagerly read on to see how the story would progress.

The last few pages before the epilogue literally had me in tears. While I loved the whole story, it was really tied together within those pages.

Lani always incorporates family into her books, namely children, which is refreshing as it adds a "real" element to the story.

The ONLY only only reason I am giving this 4 stars is because of the proofreading issues throughout the book.

This is my 2nd Lani book, and I would absolutely, without hesitation, read ANY of her books! I am a HUGE Lani fan!

***I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review***
