BXTCHES Gotta Warn: So, fun fact. Complicated was released November 7, 2017. . .I did my one click on November 12, 2017, dove right in and for a reason that I cannot identify, I didn’t take right to the keyboard with my thoughts. I decided to give it a re-read (not really a chore) but once again, for unknown reasons, I procrastinated. Third time’s the charm and I’m finally in front of a computer ready to gush all of my feelings about this book. While I haven’t read every word that has come from KA’s imagination, I am a huge fan. Motorcycle Man is one of my absolute favorites (of any author) and if you have yet to fall in love with Tack and Tyra and motorcycles and the Choas MC. . .I digress. . .just check out my review here. Trust a BXTCH, that book will have you feeling it all. While KA is pretty much close to perfection, there is a downfall. . .her books are addicting, almost Intervention worthy, her books are also very long (this one is 576 pages), so the conundrum. . .do I let my imagination go where KA wants to take it and escape or do I do adulty things like cook dinner and do laundry? Well, surely it’s not gonna take a whole helluva lot to figure out which path I chose. #laundrybedamned

Complicated will be told through the first person POV of Greta and the third person POV of Hix. Not my favorite way to get inside the mind of an alpha, but KA does it well.

Complicated kicks off with Hixon climbing out of Greta’s bed, after having a pretty great fucking night or a great night fucking, you can take it either way. The problem? That’s all it can really be. . .just one night. Hixon has just finalized his divorce from his wife of many years. The woman that he thought he was gonna grow old with. . .enjoy grand babies with. . .the one he thought he would be sitting with as his children said their “I do’s”. . .but for reasons unknown to him, Hope decided that the future they had planned together was no longer the one she wanted to see through to the end. So even though his loyalty is no longer tied to anyone, getting his needs met is one thing, but offering up his heart is a bridge he is not willing to cross. But sometimes all it takes is hearing the girl of your dreams, the one that gave you the best sexual night of your life, singing to you from across the bar, for you to see things a bit differently.

It shouldn’t take much to decipher that Complicated is in fact a complicated love story between Hixon and Greta. However, it’s not the love that’s the complicated part, not really. It’s everything that surrounds Hixon and Greta that has this book living up to its name. Even though Hixon and Hope have been living separately for about one year, their divorce is just weeks old. Adding to that complication is the fact that their love did produce three children (Shaw, Corinne, and Mamie). Hix is the sheriff, and being the sheriff of a small community, one where everyone knows everyone and everyone’s business, his actions, both professional and personal, are always being scrutinized. Hixon’s list may be long and may be complicated, but Greta’s will give him a run for his money and the majority of her list is occupied by her mother.

Not to dive too deep into this complicated journey, but Greta is somewhat new to the small Nebraska town and her motivation for relocating is her younger brother, Andy. Her younger brother who lives in a home. Her younger brother who was in a drunk driving accident when he was just 15 years old. An accident that caused a traumatic brain injury. An accident that was caused by his mother. And because of the recklessness that mama caused, Greta is Andy’s guardian. Now you can understand why it is that mommy dearest takes up so much of Greta’s complicated list.

Now it’s just time to uncomplicate things.

Kristen Ashley is never a simple BXTCH. It’s never gonna be a girl meets boy, girl and boy fall in love, they get married and ride off for their happily ever after. First, KA doesn’t write boys, she’s gonna give you an alpha that you’re gonna be trippin’ over your own two feet to fall in love with. He could be an asshole or he may be lovable from page one, but rest assured he will be alpha and you will fall, asshole or otherwise. Also, KA writes movie-esque books, she will give your imagination an investment and you will be living the moments right next to the characters she has created. Get ready, there will be a lot to unpack within the covers of this complicated book.

However, sometimes, the condition of male impotence is caused when a man cannot keep an erection enough for sexual contact. cheapest cialis canada Sadly, cialis 10 mg the list of these ailments doesn’t have many bounds. When taken Look At This viagra 100 mg in excess, alcohol can increase your chances of getting pregnant. From these, the cialis 20 mg Discover More researcher’s isolated 16 patients with symptoms of hyperthyroidism. Greta and Hixon are the ones who take center stage, but it’s the ones that surround them that give the book layer after layer. Each supporting character adds the necessary ingredient that Complicated needs to come together. Even though you know where the book is headed with Hixon and Greta, Hixon tends to be frustrating when he tries to keep things super casual and just friend zoned between him and Greta, but then you see the relationship between him and his children and even the non-relationship between him and Hope, so even though you may be frustrated with Hix, you understand. The supporting cast comes at you from all angles. . .there’s those who work with Hixon. . .there’s those who work with Greta. . .there’s the kiddos, both Hixon’s kids and Greta’s brother. . .there’s Hope. It all comes together in a beautiful and very well told story.

While KA does it all very well, the one thing that she is usually heads and shoulders above the rest is when she brings the imagination into the bedroom. And it’s not just the actual sex that will set your sheets on fire. It’s the tension that she creates, it’s the romance and the passion and the dirty talk. I think that’s where KA gets you, it’s the alpha combined with the romance, combined with the passion, combined with the dirty talk that will not only hypnotize you, but will have you salivating for more.

Here’s the deal, if you have never cracked open a KA book, Complicated is a pretty good start, though I would recommend you go back and catch up on some pretty fantastic stories. When I tell you that KA is moviesque in her writing, I’m talking get the popcorn ready, because you’re gonna be captivated from the get go. 

Complicated brings all the elements. Romance and love and passion and humor and heartache and even a murder. So just sit back, pour some wine (or tequila), block out your world and get ready to fall deep into Hixon and Greta’s. It’s gonna be worth the escape.

Rock Chick Revenge

Rock Chick Revenge (Rock Chick Series, Book #5) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.comRock Chick Revenge (Rock Chick Series, Book #5) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.comSynopsis TagRC Revenge SynopsisBxtches Be Blogging Book Reviews

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: I know it’s the same warning each and every time, but once again. . .this series NEEDS to be read in the order in which they were written (Rock Chick, Rock Chick Rescue, Rock Chick Redemption, Rock Chick Renegade, Rock Chick Revenge, Rock Chick Reckoning, Rock Chick Regret, Rock Chick Revolution, and Rock Chick Reborn). While I’m sure you can still get your fill if you were to read out of order, TRUST a BXTCH when she tells you that it’s not the same. 

Rock Chick Revenge will be told through the POV of Ava.

KA had done a pretty great job thus far introducing us to our next leading lady by the end of the previous book. For example, at the end of Indie’s story, we got somewhat of an introduction to Jet, we didn’t get to meet Roxie, but at the end of her book, we met Jules when she was in a tire shootout right in front of Fortnum’s. It is at the end of Jules’ story that Ava walks into Nightingale Investigations looking for Luke and that is where the beginning of her story begins. 

We also already know Luke. While we didn’t meet meet him during Indy and Lee’s story, he did have a bit of a story line in that book. He was the one who was shot in the gut. We really got to know him during Roxie and Jules stories. And those particular relationships may throw wrenches into what he is building with Ava. So, there is definitely angst and drama with Luke and Ava and it’s the kind of drama that we haven’t really been introduced to yet in this series. 

At this point in the series, Indie and Lee are the only couple that have a history and their history is pretty long. Jet didn’t know Eddie. . .Roxie didn’t know Hank. . .and Jules may have heard of Vance, but had yet to meet him. Ava has known Luke since she was eight years old (he was twelve) and has possibly been in love with him since then. There are a few things to know before diving in. Ava has two sisters (Sophia and Marilyn), who along with her mom, are better known as “The Barlow Bitches”. . .Her father (whom she adored) left when she was young. . .Her best friend in the entire world is Sissy. . .The last time she laid eyes on Luke was at this father’s funeral and she was 75 pounds lighter.

Of course there’s a reason why she’s shown up at Nightingale Investigations. Her BFF Sissy is married to an absolute dick (Dom) and Ava needs some help digging up dirt on “Dom the Dick” so Sissy can make out great in the divorce. The problem, once she arrives at Nightingale, she realizes what a mistake it was. Unfortunately she is too late, Mace is blocking her exit and everyone else wants to see how this plays out. Trust me, you’ll want to see it too, bets are about to be placed and for the first time, Shirleen is able to get in on the ground floor.

It’s a long story, so it’s easier to just cut to the chase because there are two separate “dramas” working at the same time and both involve Ava. Here we go: Luke finally shows up at Nightingale and confronts Ava about any problems she may have, she denies it, but later that night finds herself in the middle of some gunfire while trying to get the goods on Dom the Dick. Luke of course is there to shield her and now has the catalyst he needs to get her into his loft. Since Ava has been in love with Luke since she was 8 years old and has dreamed of the moment she would once again be face to face with him (75 pounds lighter of course), she soon realizes she may have gotten more than she bargained for. Luke being the fine, fine, alpha male that he is, takes a page out of Lee’s handbook and not only decides to take something other than money for his services, but also brings handcuffs into the mix. We all know where this is going to end up, but interruptions right before the good stuff and quipy remarks between Luke and Ava are pretty priceless.

Here’s where the first part of Ava’s drama comes in. The reason that Sissy has decided to divorce “Dom the Dick” is because he made a pass at Ava (with tongue) and Sissy walked in on it. Dom is actually the one in trouble and he has unknowingly pulled Ava into his situation. So, in typical Rock Chick fashion, there will be kidnappings and tasers and well, you know the drill.

The other drama that Ava gets involved in is actually a little more on the serious side. Ava’s past history with men has not been very successful, before or after the weight loss. There was the cheater, the porn addict, and the one who cleaned out her bank accounts and stole her dead aunt’s jewelry. Because of her devotion and commitment to her collection of vibrators, Ava has decided to pull out the full bitch (at times) on Luke. This isn’t the Ava that Luke remembers and he sort of vows to get the old Ava back from the assholes who chipped away at her. That is where the drama will unfold and it will get pretty ugly. Can’t say anymore however, I would hate to spoil it for you.

How should be taken The maximum recommended dose of cialis 5mg discount is 100 mg, which is one 100mg tablet. Simple and quick exercises purchasing this viagra generika The three most important ingredients to good penile function are a strong heart, stamina and a strong core. One can now order Kamagra online tab viagra 100mg within a few clicks. These all forms viagra 100mg for sale come with different dosages, amount, and price. As much as I love the main characters in these books, I must admit that one of my favorite parts about reading KA is the cast of support that she creates. They are all back in this book, though I felt not as prominent as in the others, they still are able to really bring the story around. All the Rock Chicks are back. Shirleen is as funny as ever and has actually claimed Ava as hers. Smithie makes a brief appearance, but it is memorable. And adding to the crew are Ava’s people. Sissy, Riley, The Barlow Bitches, the Mom’s, you will not be left wanting for any outside help. 

Get out the fan, because the sex here is going to be scorching. I’ve said it over and over, but I’m somewhat convinced that KA may get some inspiration from watching the naughty stuff, which is certainly fine by me. Now, it takes a while for Ava and Luke to “do the business”, which is being bet on by the entire gang of Rock Chicks and the Hot Bunch. But, when the business finally gets seen to, it is toe curling. My advice is this: Ladies, if you’re having a little difficulty getting inspired between the sheets, just read a couple of the scenes and turn them into some live action shots. Your man never has to know where inspiration hit you.

I have honestly read this book about 4 times, twice this year alone. Each time I read/re-read an installment of this series I think that one is my favorite and I am thinking the same thing with this book. The one thing that I really did love about this book, is with the exception of Lee and Indy’s story, Luke and Ava have know each other for most of their lives, so I felt that their story had more of an investment. This isn’t to say that I don’t love the other stories, because I do, but for the chubby girl who lives inside all of us and for that untouchable crush you had, this one kind of gets you. 

There’s just something about reading a really good Kristen Ashley book that takes you away from everything surrounding you and allows you to really fall into what it is she sets out to accomplish. You know, books get made into movies all of the time, some do well, others don’t. I personally would LOVE if someone would take this series and turn it into an actual T.V. series, HBO style of course. I mean, c’mon, who wouldn’t love to actually see the ass of Luke, or the abs of Lee, or the whiskey eyes of Hank, or really, what in the hell Tex would really look like. I think a revolution needs to begin.

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: Okay BXTCHES, same warning as before, so I’ll make this short and sweet: If you want to enjoy this series to it’s fullest, sexiest, laugh out loud potential, read it in order and in case you are wondering, Renegade is book #4. Here we go.

Rock Chick Renegade will be told through the POV of Jules.

At the very end of Roxie’s story, there was a small shootout right outside of Fortnum’s and Vance went after the shooter. Well the shooter was Juliet Lawler AKA Jules AKA The Law. Jules is a social worker who is somewhat of a loner. She lost her mom, dad, and brother in a car accident when she was very young. Her Aunt Reba and Reba’s boyfriend Nick took her in. When Jules was 15, she lost her Aunt Reba, so then it’s just Jules and Nick. She doesn’t have girlfriends and has never had a relationship. What she does have are the kids that come into the shelter that is like her second home. One of those kids, Park, recently passed away from a drug overdose. Jules, along with Roam and Sniff (two of the kids from the shelter) are the ones who find Park. This is the incident that takes her from Jules to The Law and her issuing her own brand of vigilante justice. . .much to the chagrin of the local drug dealers, the local police, and the Nightingale Gang. And the shootout puts her on radar of Vance Crowe.

If you’re reading in order, you should remember Vance. Mr. Hottie, Stealth, Bounty Hunter. He is the one who rescued Roxie after she had been kidnapped. Immediately he makes his presence known in Jules’ life. And in typical fashion, he stakes his claim. Almost just as quickly, the Rock Chicks bring her into the fold. For someone who lived her life without the love of friendships, Jules isn’t as welcoming to the Rock Chicks as Roxie was or even Jet, but those BXTCHES are just as persistent as the Hot Bunch, so it may take a bit longer, but she soon finds herself with no other option but to welcome them in her world.

It is important to let you BXTCHES know that Jules is a virgin, a 27 year old virgin. I know typically a lot of readers are skeptical when an author writes the leading lady a virgin, but KA did it really well here. She lays out her history so well, that there’s no way not to believe it. 

The direction of this book is really Jules and her quest to conquer the drug dealers of Denver. KA did a really good job of connecting the reader to Jules and exposing her passion for her job and especially the kids that she inspires. She has a wonderful and very comical relationship with the kids of the shelter. It was also great to see her social development. For someone who had no previous history with girlfriends (or men, for that matter), to experience that growth was inspiring and really fun to read.

Just like the previous books in this series, Jules tries her best to shake Vance loose. There is always a “breaking-up” conversation to be had and again, I could certainly be biased, considering I adore KA, but she writes the storyline well. It does get a little tedious at times to constantly see these Rock Chicks trying to get rid of The Hot Bunch, but once you are able to get inside of Jules’ head, you understand her reasoning.

Okay, the ones we love are back along with some others that will grow on you. There are the kids from the shelter, but specifically, Roam and Sniff, who need all of the parental love that Jules is able to offer them. There is also May, who works with Jules at the shelter, who at times, seems a little more eager for Jules to find love than Jules even is. Nick is Jules’ uncle and really the only family she has left. I can’t forget Frank, Heavy, and Zip-Jules’ training team, that is until the Hot Bunch step in and take over. So, these characters along with the ones that we have let into our imagination will make this book fantastic.

Furthermore, boozing alcohol and cigarette smoking result cialis tadalafil 10mg in late outcomes and most often responsible for deterioration of situation. Caverta is amerikabulteni.com order cialis used widely and sold over 50,000 copies. These are all necessary preconditions that will take place in 2016. viagra samples amerikabulteni.com viagra pfizer Many people have systolic blood pressures below 100, but some people develop symptoms with pressures that low. Holy Hot Bunch, these boys really know how to work over a woman. Even though Jules is working with a limited amount of experience, she catches on quite quickly, impressively so, and with the sexual appetite of one sexy Vance, that is a good thing. If you are someone whose significant other lacks in the “dirty talk” department, just have them read one of KA’s Alpha’s, there is definitely a lesson there to be had.

I have yet to decide my absolute favorite of these series. Every time I do a re-read, I change my mind, but Jules and Vance rank pretty high on the list. Renegade will hit an “Oh My God!” moment and not one that will have your laughing out loud, but KA finessed it awesomely.

You can’t help but fall in love with Jules. It’s her passion for what she does, it’s her love for her cat, it’s the love she shows those in her life, it’s her humor and her naiveté, all wrapped up in one pretty fantastic Rock Chick. She is a Rock Chick who certainly held her own among everyone and she is the first Rock Chick that becomes an unofficial member of the Hot Bunch. As with most (probably all) KA books, she’s gonna give it all to you. . .humor and love and passion and suspense and sometimes stress, but what she really gives you is the ability to escape. 

Even though the Rock Chick series has the same formula, Rock Chick + Hot Bunch + Mayhem, every book gives you something so different from the previous read that you’re not focused on the formula, your attention is on the leading couple and what new characters get thrown into the mix and what the previous couples are up to AND it reads as well as any romantic comedy you can catch on the big screen.

Rock Chick Redemption (Rock Chick Series, Book #3) by Kristen Ashley

Rock Chick Redemption (Book #3 Rock Chick Series) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.com

Rock Chick RedemptionRock Chick Redemption (Book #3 Rock Chick Series) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.comRock Chick Redemption (Book #3 Rock Chick Series) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.comReview Tag

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: Just a friendly BXTCH reminder that the Rock Chick series is a long one and while you may be very tempted to read these fantastic books out of order, please do not succumb to the temptation. Each book lays out a foundation and that foundation just continues to build and build until you are in a Rock Chick Nirvana. They flow from one to the next and in order for you to really get the whole Rock Chick experience, you MUST read in the order in which they were written. They are numbered for a reason, don’t fuck up the flow.

Rock Chick Redemption will be told through the POV of Roxie.

First came Lee, then we were given Eddie, now we get to sink our teeth right into Hank. And in case a quick reminder is needed, Hank is the eldest sibling of the Nightingale gang and gives Lee a run for his money in the badass department, he just does his on the right side of the law. . .with a badge.

Roxie may surprise you a bit. She comes to Denver from Chicago. She is in the middle of her “shaking her ex-boyfriend loose plan” albeit not a very good plan and figures Denver is a good place to escape to, since that is where her Uncle Tex lives (yes, that Tex) and she has yet to meet him, then why not. Even though Roxie and Tex have never laid eyes on one another, they have been writing each other since she was a young child and the letters of late have involved the gang at Fortnum’s. It only takes one step inside Indy’s sanctuary for Roxie to catch the eyes of one sexy Hank Nightingale and since we are already two books in, we should have a really good idea of where this is headed.

We know the formula, the featured Rock Chick is gonna come with some trouble and in Roxie’s case her trouble’s name is Billy Flynn. He was Roxie’s boyfriend for many years and has a hard time understanding that they are in fact over. Even though Roxie knew that Billy was bad for her and knew this many years ago, it only recently hit home after he started getting a tad bit rough. What she doesn’t know (although she suspected) is that Billy is tied up with some very unsavory individuals and it should be no surprise that she is going to get tied right up with it.

In a way that only these badasses can, once Hank set his eyes on Roxie, he moves quickly. There’s a date. . .the best first date ever. . .which leads to her being wrapped up in Hank and his bed. Then in true Rock Chick fashion, a kidnapping ensues, a rescue occurs, and before she can even blink, she finds herself living with Hank and his dog and with the protection of Hank, Eddie and all of Lee’s gang. 

The meat of Rock Chick Redemption is Roxie’s troubles. The kidnapping occurs pretty early on in the book (so it’s not a spoiler). She’s rescued by Vance and while her heart is beginning to feel Hank, she is worried about her past coloring Hank all of the wrong colors. So let the break up attempts begin and the Rock Chick hijinks take over. 

The layout of the story is Roxie trying to run from a past that went from scary to dangerous. It’s Roxie trying to get as much of Hank in as she can because she feels that Hank is good and she’s not and an end is inevitable. It’s Hank making sure that she understands that she is his and he will protect it at all costs. It’s the Rock Chicks inviting another into the troop. There’s the obvious Roxie trying to continuously break up with Hank and Hank making sure that Roxie understands that She’s The One. KA is gonna continue to have you laughing your ass off, but there are gonna be moments thrown in that will sober you up pretty quickly.

Rock Chick Redemption picks up almost right where Rescue leaves off. Not that there were any loose ends to tie up with Eddie and Jet, but we do get Lottie’s debut at Smithie’s and while the great characters that have been developing since Indy and Lee are back in full force, Roxie brings some with her as well. Trish and Herb are Roxie’s parents and since Trish is Tex’s sister, that should give you some insight to how those personalities are. Annette (Roxie’s BFF) and Jason come along for the ride as well. We also get introduced to Luke Stark. He was Lee’s guy who was shot during Indy’s story and will be the featured badass in book #5. So, while Hank and Roxie do a fantastic job of capturing your attention, this is a ensemble series and it’s the supporting cast that really brings it home.
Diet also plays an important role in the lives cheap viagra from uk of couples around the world. The physician suggests that amerikabulteni.com buy cialis work effectively if it taken in the presence of the sexual stimulation. The product “women sildamax sex pills” are the cialis 40 mg result of this capsule diminishes, a person may acquire few adverse effects. It is a popular ED treatment solution for men viagra buy australia of all ages who are suffering from any level of ED.
God bless Kristen Ashley and her ability to write sex scenes. She has an ability to put your imagination to work like no other. The bedroom is where these guys talk best and Hank has that talk down to perfection.  

While the formula may be the same throughout this series, each story is different. Not only is the series a long one, each book is pretty lengthy as well, but it is so worth each and ever turn of the page. The Rock Chick series is a Rom-Com that is enjoyed between two covers instead of with a remote control. It puts your imagination to work and gives you an escape. KA knows how to give you the best kind of feels, there is laughter, there is suspense, there are tears, you may get frustrated, but through is all, you will go on the same journey as our Rock Chick, you will fall in love right along side her. And that is the best kind of read.

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: Please for the love of all things ALPHA male, do not attempt to even start this book, without first finishing and raving about Rock Chick (book #1). This series is going to give you all of the feels, but in order to feel it from head to motherfuckin’ toe, you have to start with #1 and go from there. Each book is going to bring us a different couple to fall in love with while forcing you to question if you love the current book more than the previous one. . .it’s going to be lots of torture, but in the best orgasmic way. Just trust a BXTCH and heed the warning that I have just given.

Rock Chick Rescue will be told from the POV of Jet.

This book will take us on the journey that is Jet and Eddie. Now, we met Eddie during Indy’s debacle, but I’ll refresh your memory on him in a bit, let’s first start with Jet. If you remember, Jet was briefly mentioned at the end of Indy and Lee’s story. She was a new employee to Fortnum’s who arrived at the end of Indy’s drama. Now Jet has a lot of “goings on” in her life at the moment. Her mother has recently suffered from a stroke and with no dad around and a sister who lives out of state, the caretaker role falls squarely on Jet’s shoulders and in order for her to financially get it together, she is forced to take a waitressing job at Smithie’s (the local strip club), while working days at Fortnum’s and while trying to stay “Just Jet” and fly as far under the radar as she possibly can.

Time to shift our focus and our loins to Eddie. Eddie Chavez is Lee’s best/childhood friend and even that tight tie didn’t stop him from forcing Lee’s hand when it came to claiming Indy. If you remember, it was actually that gauntlet throw that spurred Lee into action. All it takes is a fumbling Jet and some coffee cups and Eddie has forgotten all things Indy. It hits a snafu when Jet misleads Eddie in believing that she is racist and Eddie actually slows his roll. Of course, with all things ALPHA in this series, that only gives her a small reprieve. When Jet’s dad shows up with a serious gambling debt and Jet unwillingly gets involved by hitting the radar of some pretty sketchy loan sharks, all of which starts with a knife to her throat outside of Smithies, that kicks up the ALPHA in Eddie and all bets are then off. And don’t worry. . .the whole racist thing really was a misunderstanding. It had more to with Eddie being hot, anywho, you’ll understand when you read it.

The cast of supporting characters in this series is really nothing short of amazing. We met a good core of the supporting cast in book #1, and with each book, KA will continue to add to that core. We’ll continue to not only meet more eventual Rock Chicks (and their individual core group), but we will also be introduced to more of the Hot Bunch Brigade, the Hot Guy Gang, Lee’s Guys. . .it doesn’t really matter what we call them, we know who they are. But let’s get to Jet’s peeps. Her mom Nancy is a pretty significant part of her life and while her dad, Ray, is the one that has created the shit storm that came raining down on her, it’s hard for Jet to just recognize him for the asshole that everyone else sees. . .he is still her dad. And KA does a fabulous job of putting the reader into that space and really empathize with what Jet is going through. Smithie, of Smithie’s, gets his introduction as well. Daisy is the wife of Marcus (owner of the stolen diamonds in book #1), she is a former stripper at Smithies, giving her a connection to Jet. She could also pass as a look alike for Dolly Parton, but doesn’t fit into the high society of Denver and she finds her spot with the Rock Chicks and they welcome her with open arms. Eddie’s family will make a very loud introduction, while I’m sure reminding some readers of there very own meddling loved ones. There are others, but I’ll let that discovery fall to you to make, and of course all of your favorite’s from the first book return, including one of my favs, Tex. Members of the Hot Bunch will continue to make appearances and we will also continue to be introduced to new ones, which is good for all involved because (a) their hot and (b) most will eventually get their own books, so it’s nice to have been introduced, albeit short, to them.

More and more foods over Order Page buy generic levitra the years were manufactured containing more unsaturated fat and less saturated fat was consumed. Both men and cheap viagra professional women, when they cannot complete the sexual activity successfully, feel bad about it. Many times we rush to the viagra sale http://robertrobb.com/2018/12/ hospital with a heart attack. Have you ever heard of an ancient text known as “The Doctrine of Signatures”? It is mostly a cialis prices spiritually based philosophy that simply implies that God provided us with natural cures for impotence that have been applied for years to treat impotence among many men. As much as Jet tries to resist anything Eddie related, she obviously relents and that succumbs to some serious sexy shit happening in the bedroom. Eddie brings it and Eddie brings it real good. I can’t even imagine the details that are happening inside of KA’s head, but for the love of all things Jackrabbit, it has got to be good. The one thing (really one of many things) you can be sure of is any sexiness in a KA novel will never leave you wanting for more. So embrace yo’self!

You can’t share too much with what is happening within these pages, without spoiling the story. There is so much coming at you from so many different directions, that it truly is best for the plot to just unfold naturally. Now, if you’re one of those BXTCHES who reads a series and gets frustrated because you believe that the storylines are all too similar, well settle down, I’m gonna try to put your mind at ease. There are a total of 8 books in this series (this does not include the recent addition of a Rock Chick novella that gives us Daisy and Marcus’ story) and yes, most will involve a member of Lee’s team stepping in to rescue an eventual Rock Chick. Even I can say, “how many times can that formula work?” Well, I can say with certainty, it can work 8 times. With each book, I look forward to reading how the story unfolds between the Hot Bunch member and the Rock Chick, but what I really look forward to is the introduction to new characters and the scenarios that unfold with the characters that I’ve grown to love with the addition of each story. And that, my fellow BXTCHES is something that I can share with you without the fear of spoiling.

This book is just as active with the drama as book #1. Get ready for: kidnapping, gunfire at the strip club, Rock Chick mayhem at the seedy bar that will involve the use of stun guns, a crazy fight at Einsteins Bagels, lots of sparkle, big hair and so much more.

I still prefer Indy’s book to this one, but that’s not saying this book isn’t wonderful. It is fantastic. The story is told very well and even though there were parts of Jet that frustrated me, I still loved her. On a side note, she is also great cook and some of the wonderful recipes mentioned in this book can be found on KA’s website. Caramel Layer Squares, you can find here, and Chocolate Sheet Cake, can be found here,  and if you’re looking for more delicious recipes, just head on over to KA’s website and it’ll all be at your fingertips.

And. . .what would a Rock Chick be without great fucking music and KA guides you right to it on her website. If you really wanting some Jet and Eddie inspiration. . .go here.

Remember, I was a late bloomer to the Rock Chicks and if you are hovering anywhere over the “buy now” button on this series, just click it. This book offers everything you need in terms of an escape. It’s adventurous, it has mystery, it’s laugh out loud funny, not to mention the mattress on fire sex scenes, and the more you grow into the series, the more you become part of it. Reading TagBook Review.4Favorite Quotes TagRock Chick Rescue (Rock Chick Series, Book #2) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.com

Review Tag

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: TRUTH (#1): I LOVE Kristen Ashley. I think that her work is brilliant and funny and captivating and. . .I could go on and on, but the point is I just love her. TRUTH (#2): This book was released back in 2011, which is a lifetime ago and I didn’t get my hands on it until 2014. Now, I would always come across this book, whether on social media or Amazon guessing that I would enjoy it based on my other reads. Initially my thought was “Not really my cup of tea”, but then I would come across so many Rock Chick discussions on different social media groups, so I finally decided to go where the love is and gave it a run. TRUTH (#3): While I’m a little pissed at myself for waiting so long, I am pretty relieved that I gave in. At this point, every book has been released, including the very last book, that’s more of a Rock Chick prequel, but is definitely rooted in the series. That just so happens to be the only one that I haven’t read. My original review of Rock Chick came back in 2015, it is now 2017 and I have decided to give my review of this series a bit of an update, which means I must dive back in and re-read. Oh, woe is me. So hang on, it’s gonna get a bit bumpy, but boy is it a fun ride.

Rock Chick will be told through the POV of Indy.

It’s probably best to just start somewhat from the beginning and I mean, the very beginning. India (Indy) Savage is the daughter to Tom Savage, Tom is a cop. Indy’s mom, Kate, passed when she was a tiny thing of just five years old. Kate’s BFF was Kitty Sue. Kitty Sue is married to Malcolm, also a cop. Kitty Sue and Malcolm have three kiddos. . .Hank, a cop. . .Ally, Indy’s BFF and Lee. Indy has been in love with Lee since she was five years old. Over the years, she has tried any and every attempt to get Lee to notice her as more than just “Indy, his sister’s best friend”. All of this came to a screeching halt when Indy was twenty years old and Lee crushed her dreams by telling her she was like a little sister. I mean, if that doesn’t dry up any sexual fantasy that she may have had, I’m not sure what will.

Indy is now thirty years old, all rock and roll and the owner of Fortnum’s (used bookstore/coffee shop) and still doing her best to avoid all things Lee. This plan starts to die a pretty quick death when Indy gets shot at trying to help her barista (Rosie), who has gotten himself involved with some stolen diamonds and some really bad guys, hence he bullets. One minute she’s sleeping peacefully in Lee’s bed, you know hiding out and under the impression that Lee is out of town, and the next she finds herself pressed against Lee, having to explain why he has found her half naked in his home.

Once Indy is through with her explanation, Lee has decided to help. It’s probably a good time to tell you BXTCHES that Lee is the owner of Nightingale Investigations and an all around natural badass. While he is pretty pissed that Indy has been shot at and is involved in a pretty messy situation. . .he has some particular stipulations when it comes to providing his services. Those conditions involve Indy completely naked in Lee’s bed. . .with Lee right next to her. . .or right on top of her. . .or right underneath her, surely you get the jest. Regardless of the position, Lee will find himself inside of her, of course in Indy’s mind, if she finds the diamonds first, then all bets and payments are off and she can go back to a life where she continues to avoid Lee.

That is where Rock Chick takes off, well really the book takes off from page one, but this is where you will get sucked in. While I can’t share the deets of everything that is happening within the pages, I can dangle some goodness right in front of you. In true Rock Chick style, Indy is not about to let a few kidnappings, dead bodies, creepy criminals or even the idea that after 25 years, she may finally get her happily ever after, keep her from living a Rock Chick life. There are drag shows to attend, ex-girlfriends that need to be smacked down, barbecues that must go on, and most importantly, sex to be had with Lee, especially since everyone she knows seems to be begging for updates on what sex is like with the #1 member of the Hot Bunch.
Today we are here to discuss about the sex positions that you should avoid to keep your partner happy icks.org canadian cialis mastercard in all possible way remains the prime motive to relief patients from cardiovascular problems by enhancing blood supply near the male regenerative system. How Does cheap levitra Kamagra Work? Kamagra, in all its kind, being the primary important oral medication for dysfunction, that is wide standard currently. it’s same because the 100mg sildenafil. These steps may help – Know about erectile dysfunction in detail through internet or by consulting a doctor in person, placing the order online with the best homeopathic medicine viagra without side effects dealer over the internet proves to be the most viable option. Compared to popular drug options, it is certainly better, pharmacy canada cialis icks.org especially when you combine the doctor’s fee, prescription, expensive drugs and transportation expenses.
This is probably the best ensemble series I have read to date. Each book in this series builds on the characters from the previous and even though the spotlight shines on the leading couple, the entire Rock Chick group makes up each story. KA insures that her characters, every one of them, add dimension to the storyline. They all play their part, no matter the size. The layers in which they come together is incredible. The love affair that one usually just has with the featured couple, extends well beyond that in this series. You will find yourself in an internal battle over who your favorites will be.

I can’t really talk about a KA book and not mention the sex. Even though Indy first attempts to avoid all things Sex + Lee, eventually she gives into what her heart and honestly, her pussy really want. Part of the adventure in this book is the struggle that Lee and Indy have when they try to attempt getting down to the business, which just thickens the sexual tension and creates a fog that will leave you hot and bothered. Once the mission is complete and Indy finally gets a taste of what Lee has been packing and what she has been missing all of those years, you’ll be hot and bothered for many other reasons. No one writes the ALPHA male better than KA (in my opinion) and the sex that her ALPHA’s bring to a story is just one of the many reasons why.

When I said that there is a lot happening in this book, I mean there is A LOT. This book involves a missing bag of diamonds, kidnappings, a crazy Vietnam Vet ex-con, car bombs, pot heads, a bunch of Alpha hotties, add a shootout at a drag queen club, the sassiest dog you will ever meet and her fabulous gay owners and you have a book that is laugh out loud funny, suspenseful, sexy, and may have you contemplating a move to Denver, even though you realize that what you are reading is indeed fiction.

If any part of you is sitting on the fence, wondering whether or not to dive into this series, just do it. It is worth it, and even though it is a very long series, all of the books are released, so it’s easy and almost necessary to move from one book to the next. If you love Kristen Ashley, this is a no brainer, if you haven’t yet read Kristen Ashley, I would first ask “what the fuck?”, then tell you that this series is as good of a series to start with as any. But, beware. . .KA is very addictive.

Raid (Unfinished Heroes Series, Book #3) by Kristen Ashley

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: This isn’t the usual “you must read the first two books before you read this one” speech. Yes, this is a series, but each book is really a stand alone that focuses on a particular couple. This book follows Hanna and Raid. If you read Creed, you know that while it visited Knight some, it really focused on the story of Creed and Sylvie. The same goes here. Knight is mentioned, and Anya, Creed, and Sylvie will visit, but only briefly. The only way that Raid connects to Knight (book #1) is, Knight has contracted Raid to find someone for him.

This book is told mainly through the POV of Hanna, there are a couple of instances where the POV shifts to Raid, but not too many. This story takes place in Willow, CO with Hanna being the towns “girl next door” and the great granddaughter of the town’s matriarch, Miss Mildred (whom I loved). She has had her sights on Raiden Miller since she was 6 years old. Raid is a former Marine and a current “underground” bounty hunter and his work has brought him back to the small town of Willow. The beginning of the story has Hanna almost stalkery towards Raid. She hangs out in the local diner (which happens to be owned by Raid’s sister) just hoping to catch his eye. The day she sees him front to front, making out with another girl, one who is her total opposite, she decides to give up and focus more on her. Months pass and the “new” Hanna finally catches the eye of one Raiden Miller. And so, their story begins.

The relationship between Hanna and Raid, starts out a little rocky. As with a lot of the female characters in KA’s books, she doesn’t necessarily deem herself worthy of Raid. But, I don’t think it’s because she thinks she is not pretty enough, she doesn’t really have any self esteem issues.  Her issue is, after seeing him making out with another girl and over hearing a phone conversation, that was taken out of context, she really just thinks that she isn’t his type. Once he establishes, in a very alpha male way, that she is indeed his type, their relationship takes off (rocket style).

KA does a really good job, as usual, writing the sex in this book. Hanna really discovers her “sexual side” with the help of Raid. All of the “Heroes” in this series seem to have a desire to “play” and I’m talking about the kind of play that uses safe words. It is not extreme, very light, but he is definitely bossy in the bedroom. There is not a lot of secondary characters in this book. There are some, her great grandmother for example. But the one thing I LOVE about reading Kristen Ashley, is her ability to really develop supporting characters and this series she really didn’t do that. I don’t know if it was intentional or not, but is was something that I wished there was a little more focus on. For example, Miss Mildred’s cat, Spot, seems to have more devotion than her best friend does. The books in this series aren’t as many pages as usual for KA, so that could be a reason.

But you should remember to take the medical advices vardenafil pharmacy and instructions before consuming the solution the consumption that follows an exemption of the medical advice may react adversely to develop decreased sexual desire, tender feeling in breast or impotency. Most individuals consult a primary doctor for initial treatment who would then refer the patient to a urologist in Dallas, Texas. tadalafil samples Mechanical vacuum devices produce a partial vacuum that free sample viagra causes the blood circulation for the penis. Ones that contain Minoxidil are considered the best because of the low cost plus best quality. generic viagra 100mg There is some violence in this book, so be prepared. Nothing too drastic, but it is there. The only part of this book that made me give a frustrated sigh, is when Hanna first asks Raid about his Marine buddies. He really freaked out. I know it was something he didn’t like to talk about, but I felt as though his reaction and then her quickness to forgive him, made me cringe just a bit.

I don’t think I’m giving away any spoilers by saying that of course, Hanna and Raid get their HEA. Their journey to get there is a little rocky. I think that this is a goodread, not my favorite KA series, but she is one of my favorite authors, so usually, she can do no wrong. This series is a quick read, it is enjoyable, and the characters are lovable.

Even though a lot of KA’s series can be read as stand alones, and I usually advocate for reading the series in order to get the most enjoyment out of them, this is one book, I think could be read as a stand alone, without necessarily reading Knight and Creed firts. With Creed, I think that it was important to read Knight first, because their stories kinda intertwined, but this one is really a “by itself” kinda book. Enjoy.

Creed (Unfinished Heroes Series)Creed (Unfinished Heroes Series)Synopsis TagCreed (Unfinished Heroes Series)Bxtches Be Blogging Book Reviews
Creed (Unfinished Heroes Series, Book #2) by Kristen Ashley

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: If you have read Knight (book #1) prior to this book, then fantastic. If you haven’t, then no worries, it isn’t really necessary. Knight will make appearances in this book, but not to the degree that it will confuse you if you haven’t read his story. 

Usually in a series (especially a KA one), the formula is about the same in all of the books in that series. That is not the case here. The only things that Knight and Creed (the books, not the men) have in common are some of the same characters. This book was so very different than Knight, it’s strange to even consider them in the same series. Where Knight focused mainly on the relationship between Knight and Anya and wasn’t too dramatic, Creed is packed with tons of intensity. The main focus of this book is of course the relationship of Creed and Sylvie, and it features every dynamic of it, but it also dives into the complications of their jobs and their relationships outside of each other. The journey to get to their HEA is emotionally deep and extreme, but it is worth every “oh my goodness” moment.

The story is mostly told from the POV of Sylvie. It needs to be said that Sylvie is so badass, that this book could have actually been titled “Sylvie”, no joke. The story will start in current time, but flash back (throughout the book) to the beginning of the relationship between Creed and Sylvie (these flashbacks span about 11 years). Sylvie is an independent PI, who sometimes works with Knight (from book #1) and helps out with the protection of the girls in his side business. Something shady is happening and Knight has called in an outside source to investigate. This source is no other than Tucker Creed, the love of Sylvie’s life and the one person who she thinks abandon her 16 years prior. Now the story begins.

Sylvie and Creed meet when she was just 6 and he was 11. Both come from broken homes, but on different sides of the track. Sylvie comes from money, but also from a father who not only doesn’t care about her, but also is physically and verbally abusive to her stepmother (AKA the stepmonster). Creed comes from a home where his father, his hero, has passed away, and his mother is an alcoholic with different men in and out of her life. To escape the yelling and violence at their homes, they both sneak out into the woods, where they meet one another. Years pass, traditions are made, and love is formed. They have a plan to leave Kentucky the day that Sylvie turns 18, but her dad has another plan, and Sylvie believes for 16 years that Creed left her in Kentucky. So needless to say, their first meeting after 16 years, doesn’t go all that well.
So , if you are smoker and you are pleasantly offline.” An abstract expressionist, Mertz has been painting primarily bold, colorful canvases for close to 20 years, but recently found himself http://appalachianmagazine.com/2017/04/27/virginias-mysterious-devil-monkey-sightings/ online viagra soft drawn to creating works that are “meant to soothe, not shock,” he says, “where there is no subject matter to understand, decipher or interpret, no hidden messages or mystery.” According to a variety.

I’m not going to give anything away, because once again, it is a discovery that needs to be made by the reader. I will say, that I enjoyed this book much more than Knight. I think that it is so full of action along with the drama and heartbreak of their past and current relationship, that it just keeps the pages turning. With their relationship spanning so many years, you can feel the authenticity between the two. Creed is more along the lines of the typical KA “Alpha Male Hero” that I’m used to, so like her others, you will fall in love with him. Her supporting characters are well written and developed (not a surprise). Overall, this book is a very good read and I definitely recommend it. Again, I don’t think that you need to read Knight in order to enjoy this book. However, if you want to start the series off right and get somewhat of a backstory, then definitely go in order. Raid (book #3) and Deacon (book #4) are both currently available.

Knight (Unfinished Heroes Series, Book #1) by Kristen Ashley

BXTCHES Gotta Warn: The sex scenes in this particular book are not like any that I’ve read in any other KA novel (I haven’t read them all, so I could be wrong). There is a dominant/submissive relationship between Knight and Anya. Now, I don’t know whether or not she depicted the lifestyle correctly, and honestly, I don’t really care. This is a work of fiction and I don’t think that is what she was going for, in my opinion she was going for “hot”, and she achieved that. She wrote it well, but know that in other books, where the submissive may call her dominant “sir”, Anya calls hers “daddy”. I only say this, because I know it weirds some people out and you should know this bit of information going into the story. KA does it well, the sex scenes in this book are pretty steamy.

This isn’t a “typical” KA book and while that my upset some readers, I actually enjoyed it being outside of the “KA box”. I’ve said before that I believe that KA is EXCELLENT at writing the “Alpha Male Hero”. If you need evidence, just reference Max, Tack, Shy, Tate, and now of course, Knight. I also think that KA’s ability to balance out sex scenes in her books is phenomenal. She is able to “dirty” them up in the absolute best of ways, but add the sensuality when needed.

This book is told from the POV of Anya Gage. She is a beautiful, 27 year old nail technician and beauty school student who dreams of one day owning her own spa. Anya was dealt a crap hand at life, her parents were both murdered when she was just 7, and she was sent to live with her alcoholic aunt. As soon as she was of age, she moved out and never looked back (except in her dreams at night). Knight is a 35 year old, very successful business man, with demons of his own. He owns club Slade, with some business on the side (won’t spoil that for you, you will have to discover on your own).

Anya reluctantly attends a party with her BFF Sandrine one night. Thinking that the party is at Nick Sebring’s home (Sandrine’s latest interest), Anya finds out, thanks to a faulty cell phone, that the apartment is actually owned by Nick’s brother, Knight. And so their story begins.

It’s only that one is of course, positive whereas, the other one http://cute-n-tiny.com/tag/chipmunk/ buy generic cialis halts in getting the pleasures and happiness from the first one. Before trying to draw out the differences between Kamagra and other medicines for erections. online viagra order The condition of joint pain can be divided into two types: Shan and partner-related premature ejaculation: the situation, when they change sexual partners will improve, indicating that super viagra online interpersonal conflict plays an important role. While you can get a hard erection by taking an engineered drug, they can have perilous side effects moreover, manufactured medications don’t increment sexual yearning, so you female viagra for sale don’t get a complete sexual affair. Fortunately, there is not much to spoil here. Shy timid girl, who doesn’t recognize all she has to offer someone, meets a very dominant, controlling, beautiful man. He scares her (in a good way, of course) and like all other dominant/submissive books I have read, she is confused that she is turned on at all by his dominant ways. She definitely makes some sexual self discovery in this book and her character traits really help you appreciate who she is. She is determined to earn her way, because of her past and he of course, being very wealthy, would like to nothing more than take care of her.

I said that this book is different than I’m used to with KA. One of the things that KA does SOOOOO well is the development of the supporting characters. You don’t get that as much in this book. You meet Anya’s BFF’s, Vivica and Sandrine, you will also meet Knight’s brother, Nick. But really other than that, other characters are mentioned, but you don’t really meet them, which, is a little disappointing.

While I do think that the dominant/submissive storyline has been done, I thought that KA wrote it well. The chemistry between Knight and Anya is good, and they are lovable characters. And in my opinion, it’s good to read a “non-traditional” KA book. I do recommend this read. This is book #1 in the series. Creed (book #2), Raid (book #3), and Deacon (book #4) are currently all available.

The Gamble (Colorado Mountain Series Book #1) by Kristen Ashley

The Gamble (Colorado Mountain Series, Book #1) by Kristen Ashley | Review on www.bxtchesbeblogging.comThe Gamble (Colorado Mountain Series)Synopsis TagThe Gamble (Colorado Mountain Series)Bxtches Be Blogging Book Reviews
BXTCHES Gotta Warn: The first time I cracked this book open, well, really tapped open on my iPad, was six years ago. I’ve re-read a couple times since, but since I haven’t read the entire Colorado Mountain Series, I decide to re-read once more (it’s now 2020), since is the first book in the series. There are six books total in this series I have read four of the six, hence the re-read. Usually I am a staunch proponent of reading a series in the order in which the books were written,  however, I actually started this series with book #2 and this is a pretty easy series to read out of order, if you so desired. Just know, that as you move through the series, characters in the previous books will make appearances.

The Gamble will be told from the POV of Nina.

Nina arrives in Gnaw Bone, Colorado from England, calling a much needed timeout for life. She’s a lawyer, she’s engaged, but she’s wondering if the life she’s living is the life she wants. . .so, Gnaw Bone and a cabin in the snowy mountains it is. Unfortunately, once Nina arrives at the cabin that she carefully picked and paid for and arrives to while beginning to feel something wonky in her sinuses, she finds a mountain man occupying her timeout and that mountain man happens to be the owner of the timeout getaway, Holden Maxwell (Max). Max is none too happy with the mix up that has put Nina at his doorstep. He tells her she needs to leave, she argues, but eventually does head back down the mountain, only to wind up in a ditch. Max gets her back to his cabin, nurses her back from the flu and then the story begins.

Kristen Ashley writes alpha males. Kristen Ashely writes alpha males really, really well. So armed with that information, you can deduce that once one of her alpha males sets his sites on something or someone that he wants, he is gonna do about whatever it takes to make that happen. In a non stalkery, non creepy way of course. Nina and Max have chemistry. Nina knows it. Max knows it. Hell, everyone in Gnaw Bone knows it. The issue at hand, well there’s a lot of issues at hand, but the main one being the fact that Nina is in fact in Colorado to sort her life out, not to add to it by crawling up a big, badass mountain man as if he were a tree. Max sees it differently and I don’t think it’s gonna take a lot to figure out who wins this battle. The thing about reading any great Kristen Ashley book is not whether or not the H/h will end up together, that doesn’t take a whole lot of figuring out. The great thing about reading Kristen Ashley, is the journey that the H/h go through to end up together. And holy fuck is this ever the journey. 

KA has an ability to mix humor with drama and heartbreak. A lot is gonna get unpacked pretty early on, with some luggage left to sort through during the course of the two week timeout. There’s murder and infidelity and break-ups and rape and violence and kidnapping, and a lot of this happens before Nina and Max get any sort of mattress dancing in. Even with all of this going down, she was able to weave in her brand of humor. This book had me going from laughing out loud to fighting back my tears.
This can be coupled with different main troubles related to purchase viagra no prescription impotence and erectile dysfunction. Effectiveness: Effectiveness is the most important factor considered tadalafil 60mg by every patient. Urology has various http://robertrobb.com/not-a-war-on-cops-but-certainly-political-pandering/ india cialis branches, such as endourology, where the urologist performs minor surgeries, neurourology, which covers the nervous system and is considered a safe substance. http://robertrobb.com/do-democrats-now-actually-believe-in-open-borders/ generico viagra on line Erection level is being maintained in the body with this tablet.
Kristen Ashley is superbly gifted at developing her characters, especially her supporting ones. She has this ability to completely have you invested in it all, even if the name is mentioned just one time. With all the emotions and baggage to sort through, there are just as many characters to get to know. You fall in love where you’re supposed to and you hate where it is warranted. Everyone you meet will add another layer and the end she builds a story that you will be thinking about for days.

We can’t fall in love with an alpha male and not talk about the sexual chemistry that is brought to the page. I look for a lot when I’m being judgy about sex scenes in a book and while the chemistry between the two leading the cast is certainly something I need, I also have to have dirty talk and both need to be believable. . .oh don’t worry, it gets brought and it gets brought in a very delicious way.

I realize that this book is somewhat old (2012), however, if you haven’t had the privilege of reading a Kristen Ashley book and a hearty romance novel makes your toes curl, then you need to catch up. She is definitely worth the pages in her book (there are a lot, by the way) and trust me, it is very hard to put down and I predict you will be scurrying to buy the next in the series once you have enjoyed this one.
