Blurb

My mother's name is Taylah, and once, a very long time ago, she was my best friend - she was everything I wanted to be.

Until the night she disappeared.

Ten years on and my life, my families lives and the world around us has never been the same again.
How can it be when you are left not knowing?

No leads. No connections. Nothing. Just pure emptiness.

My dancing is the only way I can separate myself from the pain that lies in my home, in my father's eyes and in my brother's spirit. They need me and I'll fight with everything I am to be there for them, but who will be there for me?

Then I meet Nate.

Champion Motocross racer and everything my father doesn't want for me. He's forbidden, he's beautiful, and he's carrying a bundle of his own secrets.

When I step into his world, there is no turning back.

He will consume me.

He will teach me how to breathe again.

He will put a tiny piece of my broken heart, back together.

EXCERPT

He kisses me hard and hungry and spins me facing away from him. Luca pushes me against the glass window and pins my hands above my head.

A shudder resounds through me as my hands contact the cold glass, and he gazes at me in the window reflection. “Keep them there,” he orders. My hips are pulled back slightly, my back arches. Luca’s fingertips glide down my spine. Palming my behind, he massages the swell of my ass in both hands. The heat radiating off him is absorbed by my back as he leans in close to kiss the shell of my ear. The tips of his thumbs touch my entrance. Going down into a kneeling position, his nose traces down my back, stopping twice to leave a rough kiss in his wake. Luca bites both cheeks and a low growl leaks from his lips.
      
He starts licking me from front to back with the flat of his tongue. All the while his hands keep cupping my behind. “I want to hear you, Fallon.” His tongue traces my folds, the inside of my thighs, the bundle of nerves are being sucked into his warm and wet mouth. And finally his tongue moves inside me, licking my inner walls.

I scream his name repeatedly and throw my head back when his tongue pleasures me into climax.
      
Unfastening his pants and pushing down his boxer briefs, Luca seats himself in me roughly. “I’m always so fucking hard for you. Fuck, Fallon,” he groans. My earlobe is caught between his teeth as his hands hold my wrists against the window.

My back curves more to take him in deep.

Luca tangles his right hand in my hair and turns my head to thrust his tongue in my mouth, meeting mine, compelling me. A low, rasping sound escapes him while he keeps up his punishing strokes until he spills inside me. He holds himself still, our breathing regulates, and his lips graze my shoulder. As he pulls out leisurely – tightening his grip around my locks, forcing my stare forward – Luca takes my left hand and strokes his come around with our entangled fingers. “Rub it in, Fallon,” he whispers in a hoarse tone against my ear while locking eyes with me in the window.



ABOUT THE AUTHOR


Soraya Naomi resides in Europe with her entrepreneur fiancé. She attended university in The Netherlands.

Although she reads many genres, she favors intense, dark, seductive, and provocative novels where the male character loves fiercely without remorse or boundaries. 

She has a passionate obsession for the written word and indulges in chocolate pastries much too often. 

There are books full of great writing that don't have very good stories. Read sometimes for the story... don't be like the book-snobs who won't do that. 
Read sometimes for the words--the language. Don't be like the play-it-safers who won't do that. But when you find a book that has both a good story and good words, treasure that book.
 
― Stephen King

A phone call that changed our lives... 

I've lived my life in a daze, trying to save someone hell bent on destruction. But when my phone rings and I'm told that Angel, my on again off again boyfriend has OD'd for the second time in two years, I'm so numb. So tired. So when Tor Boler, the sexy Norwegian and drummer of Fok asks me to stay with him, I stay. We were friends and I needed to be held. To be loved. It was just supposed to be one night of reckless passion. One night where I could forget how screwed up my life had become. 

...a night of passion with far reaching consequences 

I've wanted Jamie Sullivan since the day she walked through my tattoo shop eight years ago. There's a soulfulness to her blue eyes that reminds me of the arctic fjords of home. She calls to me. There's only one problem standing in our way- Angel Romero. I want her, and she wants me too, she just doesn't realize it yet. 

This time... we'll get it right.

A Moment (Moments Series)




   This Time is the third installment of Marie Hall’s Moments series. Though it is the third it can be read as a stand-alone, some of the characters from the previous two books make an appearance. The story focuses on Tor Boler and Jamie Sullivan, who were first introduced in book two. This book is told from alternating POV.

   Tor has loved Jamie from afar for a few years, but Jamie has been stuck in a relationship with a bad boy she never lost hope would turn back into the man she fell in love with. When she finally accepts the fact that he'll never change she ends up in Tor's arms. This book follows their relationship, which begins as friends and ends as lovers who fight to find their happily ever after. The past tries to tear them apart, but they struggle to defeat it and stay together. Tor is an awesome book boyfriend. A tattoo artist he not only has tats of his own he is smoking HOT! He looks like a bad boy but has a heart of gold. 

   This is the first book in the series that I have read, but I loved the secondary characters so much I am going back to read A Moment and Right Now so I can spend more time with them! This book is definitely worth the one-click! 
    




Marie Hall is a New York Times Bestselling author who has always held a dangerous fascination for creatures that go bump in the night. And mermaids. And of course fairies. Trolls. Unicorns. Shapeshifters. Vampires. Scottish brogues. Kilts. Beefy arms. Ummm... Bad boys! Especially the sexy ones. 

Then the day came she realized apart from the sexy bad boy she married, there'd be no vampires/shapeshifters/mermaids/fairies/or even stinky trolls in her future unless she wrote about them. More often than not she can be found roaming the wild, lush tropical forest she calls her backyard (a.k.a. Hawaii) and day dreaming constantly about her latest project.

Abducted at eighteen. Held captive for 15 months.

It reads like one of those headlines. And yes, I did it. I stole her. Nora, with her long dark hair and silky skin. She’s my weakness, my obsession. 

I’m not a good man. I never pretended to be one. She can love me, but she can’t change me. 

I can, however, change her. 

My name is Julian Esguerra, and Nora is mine to keep. 

***Keep Me is the sequel to Twist Me, told from Nora & Julian’s POV.***  

Excerpt

Julian's POV
“Are you all right?” There is a concerned expression on Nora’s face as she reaches up to touch the area above my left ear. Her slender fingers are gentle on my scalp. “Does it still hurt?” Her touch sends pleasure streaking down my spine. I want this from her. I want her to care about my well-being. I want her to love me even though I stole her freedom—even though, by all rights, she should hate me. 

I have no illusions about myself. I’m one of those men they show on the news—the ones that everyone fears and despises. I took a young woman because I wanted her and for no other reason. 

I took her and I made her mine. 

I make no excuses for my actions. I feel no guilt either. I wanted Nora, and now she’s here with me, looking at me like I’m the most important person in her world. 

And I am. I am exactly what she needs now . . . what she craves. I will give her everything, and I will take everything from her in return. Her body, her mind, her devotion—I want it all. I want her pain and her pleasure, her fear and her joy. 

I want to be her entire life. 

“No, it’s fine,” I say in response to her earlier question. “It’s almost healed.” 

She pulls her fingers away, and I catch her hand, not ready to forego the pleasure of her touch. Her hand is slim and delicate in my grasp, her skin soft and warm. She tries to tug it away reflexively, but I don’t let her, my fingers tightening around her small palm. Her strength is insignificant compared to mine; she can’t make me release her unless I chose to let her go. 

She doesn’t really want me to let her go, anyway. I can feel the excitement rising within her, and my body hardens, a dark hunger awakening within me again. Reaching across the table, I slowly and purposefully unbuckle her safety belt. 

Then I stand up, still holding her hand, and lead her to the bedroom at the back of the airplane.

Synopsis:

They say when you take revenge against another you lose a part of your innocence. 
But I’m not innocent. 
I haven’t been for a very long time. 
My innocence was stolen from me. 
Taken was the life I was supposed to have. The soul I was born with. The ruby heart embedded in a life full of hopes and dreams. 

Gone. 
Vanished. 

I never even had a choice. 
I mourn that life. Mourn the what-ifs. 
Until now. 
I’m ready to take back what was always meant to be mine. 

 But every plan has a fatal flaw. Sometimes it’s the heart.

Excerpt:

He thinks, in this moment, that we’re making love. He fills me slowly as I lie beneath him. Arms laced around his neck. Legs spread open wide, inviting him in deeper as he makes a meal out of my tits. He believes everything I want him to. He always has. But this is merely a game for me. A game he foolishly has fallen into. He never questions my love for him, and now my body writhes underneath his and moans in mock pleasure as he comes hard, jerking his hips into me, telling me how much he loves me, and I give his words right back. “God, I love you so much,” I pant. His head is nestled in the yoke of my neck as he tries to calm his breathing, and when he lifts up, I run my fingers through his hair and over his damp scalp as he looks into my eyes. “You’re so stunning like this.” “Like what?” I question softly. “Sated.” Idiot.

99 cent maddness!!!! 5 Star read by SEXXA KOHL



If you’d asked me what I thought I’d be doing at twenty-two, it certainly wouldn’t be taking my clothes off for complete strangers. The world sees me as a whore and a worthless piece of trash. No one would ever believe that I am still a virgin, waiting to find love. I think I can easily say that I don’t think love is ever going to be finding me at Club Climax. 
I give the crowd what they want. For the next three and a half minutes, I dance, undress, shake my ass, and slide up and down the metal pole, in front of me I am in complete control while I am up here on this stage. The dancers make the rules at this place. That is except for the room in the far back, known as Ultimate Climax. It is the one place where all power is surrendered; the one place in this club that I said I’d never go, no matter how desperate I got. The price is just too high for me, and I refuse to sell myself to the highest bidder. I cannot afford to lose the only thing I have left… My control. 
But sometimes, the day comes when we have to do the things that we said we would never do. For me, that day is here. 
I take a deep breath, grab the door handle, and know that once I walk through that door, my whole life will forever change. 
Little did I know just how much it actually would. 



This is the debut novel by new author Sexxa Kohl. Can we say Oh My Gosh?? This book is so hot, I’m surprised my contact lenses aren’t scorched onto my eyeballs. If you follow my reviews, you know I have a soft spot for virgin stories. There is something about the innocent girls that will make me one click a story no matter what. But here is a little secret.... I like stripper stories too. How far apart are the two? You would think pretty far, but LOOK!!! It’s a virgin stripper! I’m in some kind of one-click heaven! 

Blaire and Jaxxon are very lovable characters that you can connect with right from the first chapters. I loved the writing style. Sexxa has a unique way of making you feel like you are in the mind of the characters. You get both Blaire and Jaxxon’s POV, which I love. It feels like you are getting the whole story. 

The sex scenes are off the chart hot. I can’t even tell you some of the things these guys do. You really have to just get this book and find out for yourself! Trust me, it is worth the $4!!
I give this book five stars.















Sexxa Kohl is a sexy sassy Southern bitch who ADORES sex. DUH! Her favorite hobbies include burning up the sheets with her delicious husband, achieving multiple screaming orgasms in new and unusual places, and flashing her tits to the world. She proudly admits to having a tiny bit of male eye candy addiction (Okay, she's a total man- candy whore).
Sexxa both embraces and expresses her natural sexuality fully in her writing. It is her dream to, one day, stage a massive intervention for the boring prudes of the world who believe the missionary position is erotic.
"SEEK HELP IMMEDIATELY" she screams!
Sexxa resides outside Nashville with her hot husband and their massive collection of sex toys. She aspires to spice up your world and dampen your panties.
COMING SOON:

At Club Climax, men get more than they bargain for when they ask for me. Behind those doors, I don’t submit… I dominate. Men love it when I overpower them, when I take control. Some pay me obscene amounts to whip and degrade them, all to fulfill their own sick proverbial pleasures. But truth be told, it fulfills mine too. Every lash I deliver, every harsh action or word is for the girl that once had no control. The girl I will never be again. Not for anyone. 

Being on the run, I can’t trust anyone. It’s the only way I can keep us safe. That’s right... us. When I walk out these club doors, I become someone else. I become Mommy. One thing is for sure, I will stop at nothing to protect him.

But sometimes the danger finds you, no matter how much you run, no matter how well you hide. My name is Devyn Wilder, but you know me as Honey. And this is my very fucked up story

The moment I met Davide Valenti, I wanted him.

He was alluring in the kind of way that makes good girls like me want to break all the rules.

So I did. I broke my rules for him, and in turn, he gave me what I craved.

Hearts and Flowers.

Yet I wanted more. I wanted to know him, claim him the same way he had claimed me. But you can't claim that which doesn't exist. A mirage. A man who showed me one face while showing the world another. A complicated man. A dangerous man.

Now I'm caught up in his world. Trapped under all that is dark and dangerous. From hearts and flowers to guns and knives.

I want out. But I fear it's too late.
