Maddie Woodward is in a pickle. The last person she expects to see when she returns to the family ranch for one last Christmas is her former lover, Zach Brennan. He’s hotter as he ever was, all male and determined to get her naked. She’s just as determined to show him she’s over him—until she ends up in his bed, enjoying the wildest sex of her life. A night of uncontrolled, erotic sex shows her that Zach is far from out of her life. Now if she can just get him to help her convince her sisters not to sell the ranch…

Jenna left him once because she was afraid of his Dominant lifestyle.

When three of Santa’s elves were ordered to provide happily ever afters for the Woodward sisters, they promised themselves a celebration if they were successful.

Book Review- The Haunting of the Sandpiper Inn by Elizabeth Black


Sorry this is late folks. I'll explain later.


The Haunting of the Sandpiper Inn by Elizabeth Black
Publisher: Whiskey Creek Press
Genre: Erotic Paranormal

Review Copy Received from Author

Summary: While psychic Martha Ellis McKay may have the Gift, a skeptic’s heart beats in her breast. She has seen her share of fakes, and she does not take kindly to them. Even worse is when she is accused of being one. So imagine her chagrin when she expects to spend a quiet weekend at the Sandpiper Inn working on a book about haunted houses only to meet a ghost hunting team with its own skeptic, who greets Ellis with a jaundiced eye.

She has met her match in both getting to the bottom of the haunting of the Sandpiper Inn and proving to skeptic John “Beck” Becker that she is the real deal. The problem is that Beck and Ellis have more serious worries. The Sandpiper Inn holds a dark secret that threatens to destroy them both. What awaits them as they delve into the history of the Sandpiper Inn? And will their investigations bring them closer together or drive them further apart?

Autumn’s Review: Over all, The Haunting of the Sandpiper Inn was an interesting read. Elizabeth Black certainly did her homework when it comes to the paranormal aspect.

I enjoyed how she kept her facts straight when it came to the ghost hunting. The big problem with this story, for me anyway, was that I could see where it was going. I felt like yelling at the main characters. On the other hand, the relationship aspect of the story kept me reading. I wanted to know if and how Ellis would change Beck's way of thinking. Would these two be able to get together in the end? Also, I had to know if I was right, if what I thought happened actually did or would there be some maniacal twist at the end.

Ms. Black writes a great read, with interesting and humorous characters; my favorite character being one of the inn’s ghosts.

The Oedipal Complex has never been so sexy…

Alex Carradine can’t believe his father wants to come and visit his ski resort. Could it be that after so many stormy years, “slick Mitch” Carradine wants to offer an olive branch? Maybe the old man is mellowing, settling down with the new lover he’s bringing along.

Then Alex realizes the acid truth. This is no warm family visit. His father’s new conquest is none other than the woman of Alex’s sexual fantasies, meant only to dangle tauntingly in front of his face. At least an unexpected blizzard has frozen his father out of the picture entirely.

Angeline Kastakis was looking forward to taking the next step in her relationship with Mitch. Too late, she realizes she’s been led into a familial battle zone. Now it’s Christmas and she’s marooned in a blizzard with an insolent, gorgeous hunk of man whose blazing blue eyes tell her loud and clear he wants her in his bed. Preferably tied to it with a bow.

There’s no escape in sight. But as Alex stirs her secret longing to be mastered by a man, escape is the last thing on her mind…

Warning: This book contains scenes of sensual submission hot enough to make you sweat in a blizzard.


Sorry I forgot to post this yesterday I was distracted.

Book Review-The Family Jewel by Raina James



The Family Jewel by Raina James
Publisher: Siren-Bookstrand, Inc.
Genre: Erotic, Sci-fi



Review Copy Received from Publisher

Summary: On Kalaria, native-born women are a rarity, and Kalaria's Council of Elders is ever-vigilant that only the best and the strongest clans qualify for a precious Jewel.

Jerran, Loran, Mikah and Kai -- leader, healer, trader and warrior -- have worked long and hard to win a Jewel, despite Jerran's "taint" of off-world heritage. Beautiful and seductive, trained from girlhood to be all things to her mates, Shantay is everything half-brothers Jerran and Kai and lovers Mikah and Loran desired.

But jealousy and greed are universal. Because of the machinations of a vindictive courtesan, Shantay is ripped away from her mates by a slaver eager to cash in on the value of a rare and priceless Kalari Jewel, rumored to be the ultimate sex slave.

Her men will follow her into space itself to reclaim The Family Jewel.

"Chuckling to myself, I was considering all the euphemisms for a man's, ahem, family jewels when I started thinking about a heroine called a Family Jewel, and imagining a world where women are rare treasures. She would have a "he-rem" of men and be the perfect mate each man -- or, in the case of Loran and Mikah, each couple -- needs." ~ Raina ~

Autumn’s Review: At first I was a little confused by The Family Jewel, but as the story unfolded I was pulled in and intrigued by this world Ms. James created. I wanted to know more about the world and characters. The way Ms. James writes this book it has a little bit of everything; however, I wouldn't say this book is for everybody.

Jerran is your total alpha-male and Kai is the strong, yet sensitive, warrior; then you have the lovers, Loran and Mikah. Mikah, who hesitant and unsure where his place will be, and Loran who’s sure he'll be able to bring his lover around to dealing with having a Jewel. Shantay, their Jewel, is a beautiful sexy woman who knows how to treat her men.

The plot is wonderful as well. You get to know the characters and then see what they’re going through; the ups and downs are great. With a fantastic ending you will just have to read to believe.
