The Temptress- CJ Fallowfield Review

Hello Readers,

So my Saturday has been a slightly stressful one with my bank not allowing me to do something online then claims that "Oh its not us". I keep thinking to myself "Yeah Right". So this past week has been adventure filled with me doing the great book tour with Becca from Loving The Book. I have to say it was a lot of fun with 2 great reviews coming out of it. I see so many people retweeting and getting involved. This is a great reminder of what having a really meanful book feels like. It was just what I needed.

Now I have rambled onto for a lot longer than I should have.

The Temptress Review for CJ Fallowfield.

The Temptress There’s just something about a French accent, something that conjures images of romance, sex and passion. There’s a reason French is called ‘the language of love.’ Lulu McQueen runs an exclusive honeytrap agency, to test the fidelity of rich men for their suspicious partners. While her business flourishes and her track record in the field remains unbroken, earning her the nickname of The Temptress, her personal life isn’t so successful. A trip to Paris, years ago, led to the most erotic encounter of her life with Luc, a charismatic, dominant, irresistible Frenchman. For one night she experienced bliss on a scale she’d never encountered and fled in the morning, ashamed of herself, but her Parisian one night stand was burned into her memories and no one since had compared. With no one available on short notice, Lulu steps in to lure Mrs. Le Grand’s rich husband, for an extortionately high fee. Lulu’s in for the shock of her life when she finds her mark at the hotel bar. Luc Le Grand still has a face and body to make Adonis weep. He exudes confidence, masculinity and raw sex appeal. The question now isn’t whether Lulu can tempt him, but whether she can resist him, retain her reputation and secure her fee, or whether she’ll fall under Mr. Le Grand’s spell. Again.

5 Star Review: 

From the start C. J Fallowfield created a great book with detailed character. The history between them spans over a six year period. I found myself throughly enjoying the book from start to finish. I found the way that she characters and their flaws will leave a lasting impression on the reader. Even though the erotica wasn't my cup of tea it didn't ruin the storyline at all. She paced the book well and you get value for your money from beginning to end.

She managed to have a great story that wasn't just wrapped around sex. She captured the fear of a mother with a son well and the emotions in this book were well developed, thought out perfectly. I take my hat off to the author and will be tempted to try her other work in the near future. She has found a great mix that would fit into so many of the romance and erotica molds out there.

I was delighted to find this teasure and can see a really bright future for this author in the future.

Thank you for dropping by and I hope that you will subscribe to the log so that you can read more of the reviews that I have coming up. You will also get to see snippets of my crazy life.

Beautiful Disaster (Beautiful 1) by Jamie McGuire Review- 5 Stars

Hello Readers,

A cloudy day here in Helensbrugh and we just got back from a trip to the hospital. I was reading as I waited in a place that certainly left me with some inspiration for one of the novels that I'm writing. I'm editing and writing for you so be patient. I want to thank you for stopping by to see what I thought of the great Jamie McGuire.

I did a review of a author I hadn't even heard anything about. I just stumbled upon the book as a wrestling romance author I was interested in seeing what she did that I picked up the first two books in a much wider series.

So here is the blurb: 

Suffering from Fifty Shades withdrawal symptoms? Then meet Travis...Good Girl. Abby Abernathy doesn't drink or swear and she works hard. Abby believes she has created enough distance between her and the darkness of her past, but when she arrives at college, her dreams of a new beginning are quickly challenged by the university's walking one-night stand. Bad Boy. Travis Maddox, handsome, built, and covered in tattoos, is exactly what Abby needs - and wants - to avoid. He spends his nights winning money in a floating fight club, and his days as the notorious college Lothario. A disaster waiting to happen...Intrigued by Abby's resistance to his charms, Travis tricks her into his life with a simple bet. If he loses, he must remain celibate for a month. If Abby loses, she must live in Travis' apartment for the same amount of time. Or the start of something beautiful? Either way, Travis has no idea that he has met his match. Or that this is the start of an obsessive, intense relationship that will lead them both into unimaginable territory...

REVIEW: 

From the beginning I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this book. I found myself able to fall in love with the characters from the beginning. There was some moments in the book where I wish the fights were described in full detail and I hope that when I start the second book that is what I find. I love the chemistry that you find from the characters to whom the book focuses on.

I will warn you that there is some moments in the book where you want to hit the heroine up the back of the head and tell her to get her act together. So from a writing stand point the author succeed in making me feel something. That is what books are meant to do. They are meant to pull you in and make you feel something. Leave you needing something else from the characters. Jamie does this in spades. She will be a very successful series writer. I can't wait to see what other gems that she has released to the world.

I want to congratulate her again on a job well done.

Thank you for stopping by and make sure that you keep your eyes on the "Wrestling Thoughts" blog for the Draft Snippet of "Marie's World: The Aftermath".

Bookset Review for Georgia Le Carrie- 5 Stars

Hello,

After a heat wave from hell from Helensbrugh and a busy week I have been feeling bad about how delayed it has been for me to get this book review to you. I have gotten to know Georgia La Carre a little bit and I love her to bits. She is so caring and authors always tell each other what is going on behind the scenes and the support we have shared with each other is why I do this.

I hope to bring you even more awesome news soon. I have opened a wrestling blog with my thoughts on it. Please find it through the link that is here: http://kristalmckerringtonwrestling.blogspot.co.uk/ My aim is to write a blog a month for the blog site. So if you like my thoughts on wrestling then please check it out.

Now onto the reviews of "Bookset of Crystal Jake" or the EDEN books by Gerogia La Carre.

Blurb: 

EDEN Book 3:
Book # 3 The conclusion to EDEN:  The Bestselling Erotic Romance Series. Sexy & Suspenseful a whirlwind of steam, romance, and  suspense. Meet the commanding, charismatic,  Alpha - Jake Eden. Actual page count 188.

Lily:
I've been such a fool. Such a fool. He saw me coming and tied me up in knots. And I let him. After Vegas, my heart and mind have been thrown into complete disarray. Is it really possible that what we had-- all that blazing, unquenchable passion--was just an illusion?

I know I've lost his trust, but somehow I must find a way to repair the damage I have caused and find my way back to his heart.

I have to make it right... whatever it takes.

Jake:

She is my wife now, but I know she's not mine. Not really. Not properly. Not the way I want. You see, I want it all. Every last bit of her: heart, mind, body and soul.

And I'm prepared to move heaven and earth to make that happen. This is my mission and my promise. Watch me make her mine or die trying...

CRYSTAL JAKE BOOKSET Blurb:
The Bestselling Erotic Romance Series. Sexy & Suspenseful a whirlwind of steam, romance, and suspense. Meet the commanding, charismatic, Alpha - Crystal Jake Eden. 
Book 1 
Haunted by memories of her brother’s death, and searching for answers,Lily Hart embarks on a career that takes her into a seedy underworld, where she is exposed to wealth, greed, lust and the reign of gorgeous, powerful, and dangerous men—one man in particular wreaks havoc on her emotions. 

At thirty Jake Eden has everything: looks to die for, money, power and a never-ending line of twisted, fucked-up women willing to do anything to get with him. Love? Love was for pussies…until a woman with the stage name of ‘Jewel’ arrives on the scene. She alone is different from all the others. 

Oozing pure, unadulterated sex, strong, intelligent and independent, she is everything he should stay away from, but she makes him itch to tame her and keep her for himself. 
Her lure is addictive and undeniable and soon he is hooked. 
But when the line between betrayal and loyalty is put to test… 
Will love be stronger than revenge? 

Book 2 

Lily: It wasn't supposed to be like this- I came ready, determined, but nothing could have prepared me for Jake Eden. 

Engulfed in his power, his lust and his primal need for me, I've become ever more helpless in his hands. I love the way he touches me, holds me, protects me. I feel alive in ways I cannot explain. I know I am giving my body to a criminal...week after week, but I can't stop. 
I'm addicted. 
He has no idea. 
It's all wrong, but I'll stay with my plan until I figure out a way around the conflict I'm facing... 


Jake: I never knew that looks could blindside a man the way Lily Hart's beauty did me. When our eyes collided that first time, the connection was instant, I knew, that she was like no other. She was something special, uniquely different. 
But I've discovered since then that there is a secretive side to her, and now I fear deception stalks her eyes. 


I know I must keep my distance, but she keeps persisting that I have her heart, so how can I push her away when all I want to do is tie her down and make her mine? 

Book 3 

Lily: I've been such a fool. Such a fool. He saw me coming and tied me up in knots. And I let him. After Vegas, my heart and mind have been thrown into complete disarray. Is it really possible that what we had— all that blazing, unquenchable passion—was just an illusion? 
I know I've lost his trust, but somehow I must find a way to repair the damage I have caused and find my way back to his heart.

Jake: She is my wife now, but I know she's not mine. Not really. Not properly. Not the way I want. You see, I want it all. Every last bit of her: heart, mind, body and soul. 
And I'm prepared to move heaven and earth to make that happen. 

This is my mission and my promise. 

Watch me make her mine or die trying...

EDEN BOOK 3 REVIEW: 

This could not have been a more prefect book for the ending of this series. I found myself unable to put it down and read it in 2 days. I wasn't able to believe how well Georgia Le Carre created a crazy, breath taking world. I have enjoyed the story of Jake and Lily. I will be buying the books to do with Jake's brother. Well I hope that there is storylines for Shane, Don and the other members of Jake's family.

I can tell you that the twists that are in the novel will make you speak out loud and you will be extremely annoyed if anyone interrupts you. This is prefect for those journey to works where you just want to get lost in another world. I have to say that I can't get enough of this amazing English author. I have to say that I'm surprised that she isn't a New York Best seller. I can see that happening in the near future.

I take my hat off to the most amazing erotica author I have had the pleasure of reviewing for. I hope that this review has you recommending this book to all your friends and family members over 18.

CRYSTAL JAKE's BOOKSET REVIEW: 

I don't usually buy booksets. I got this from the author and I fell in love with the books that were filling up Kindle with great detailed stories. I couldn't help but to get involved with the characters. Jake and Lily will make you forget all about your own world and problems. From the nail biting moment when she starts as a dancer till we find out the truth about her. We all fear what Jake will feel when we find out the truth about Lily. Her tragic past and how she handles all of this as she goes on the adventure of her life.

I am glad that I got this bookset and I made sure to review each of the single books that were in the bookset because these novels have just a well created world. The author Georgia Le Carre managed to bring London alive on the page without over doing it or screwing up the wonderful characters she created. I was more than relieved to see that these characters were 3D and I was in awe of what this British author managed to do. I hope that she will never stop writing books. She has made her a fan of her work for her life and I can't wait to read her latest release. I wish I could subscribe her Author page so that I could know about every single book that is released.

If you haven't read Georgia Le Carre then you haven't experienced what a great erotica is.

Thank you all for coming out to check out the final review in the "EDEN" series and I hope that you enjoyed it. Please subscribe to the blog for the latest reviews. I hope that your having a great weekend. I know that most of you are celebrating in the US so happy 4th of July from me.

Book 2 of Crystal Jake's Book Set- 5 Stars Yet Again- Georgia Le Carre

Hello Readers,

So today I was suppose to get my jaw fixed and instead I have been sitting home reading Georgia Le Carre's book Eden Book 2. I got the call yesterday cancelling this surgery and a call today saying that my second surgery might not be done when they said it would be done. I have several months of pain ahead of me and I'm more than not happy. I hope that the editing and reading that I'm doing will help to get me through this. I'm still working on "Dragon" and "Marie's World 2".

My list of stuff to do never ends.

Now onto what you came here to read. Its my 2nd review for Georgia Le Carre and I promise that I'm not giving her 5 stars all the time because I love her to bits. No its because I love her work. She is a talented author who needs to be read, respected and appreciated like a fine wine.

Review of Eden Book 2

Review:

From the outset of this book you feel the conflict that Lily feels about the sting that she is running on Jake. We see more of the history of Lily in this book and we learn what it takes to survive in the gangster world of London. We see clearly one man's determination to live and survive. Jake does that through his very graphic and very well described fight scenes.

We start to believe that Jake has truly fallen in love with Lily when he takes him to meet his mother and we see her wanting to open up to Jake as he romances her. He is carrying just as a deadly secret as the one she carries within her heart. We see them both opening up to each other and wanting to be apart of each others lives. Lily is doing everything in her power to not give into the temptation that is Jake Eden. She soon finds herself unable to do so.

The author Georgia Le Carre enthralled her audience with this next book and continues on the power that is based inside this book. You will be desperate for the final installment of this great story. That is what happens in this second book. You find yourself carrying along with Lily and wanting her to make it with Jake Eden. There is a great desire for a happy ending. I will not give away what happens only that Georgia Le Carre shows her true talent by sucking you right into the end. She has a great deal of detail and patience to not rush any elements of this story and that is what makes this truly special.

I suggest that you buy all three books because one is not going to be enough and you will not resist what is contained in this storyline. Its steamy and hot enough to have you reaching for the ice cold shower, but not being able to put down the books itself. You will not want to stop reading until you get to the end of the books. So make sure that you have a day and a bit to finish it and time to gossip with your friends the wonder that this author creates.

I hope that you will be picking up the Eden series for yourself and are enjoying my reviews enough to subscribe to the review blog. The button to do so is on the right handside I believe below the book links to my own work. 

Thank you for stopping by again.

5 Star Review of Eden (Crystal Jake) Book 1 by Georgia Le Carre

Hello My Faithful Readers,

I'm sitting here after being told by a dentist that they are going to take my teeth out while they fix my jaw next week so I'm going to be doing a lot of reading. I will be doing some writing on my favorite series "Marie's World."

During this past week I spoke to wonderful best seller who will be giving me a quote for my upcoming second attempt at erotica. The books called Flame and I'm over the moon that she will be doing a quote for the first one of my trilogy.

Now I will not take away much more of your time as I allow you to read the review of the first book of her amazing book set called Crystal Jake. So please enjoy the review and make sure that you share the links to help this author reach new readers who can enjoy the book as much as I did.

Review of "Eden" Book 1

(Crystal Jake Book Set)

Blurb:

Book no 1 in The Bestselling Erotic Romance Series. Sexy & Suspenseful a whirlwind of steam, romance, and  suspense.

Will love be stronger than revenge?

Review:

From the start of this book its like getting into a sports car with a F1 driver in the front seat. From the beginning Georgia gets you all caught up into the wraps of a great story. Compelling steamy scenes were filled to the brim with large amount of plot. The 3D characters stand out and they bring you off the page in a way that most erotica novels offer. This one gives you far more than what it costs to buy it.

The twists of Lily getting hurt, the soft sides of Jake helps to make the book flow really well. The characters demand more from you and they give you a thought provoking look into the modern gangsters still operating in the capital of Britain. From the outset you will find the London lifestyle flowing through each of those pages. You can't miss it.

At the end the cliff hanger and the twist will have you racing to grab the next book in the series or frantically search for the bookset. Both are more than worth the time and effort.

Thank you for following this book and stay tuned for my thoughts, opinions on the rest of the books this great author has sent me.

A Valentine For Emma by Pam Binder- 5 Star Review

Hello Readers,

Today its muggy in Helensburgh, as I prepare to take next week off I have to say I'm enjoying writing again. I have been editing a lot lately and I'm hitting "The War: Dragon" and "Marie's World 2". I have enjoyed getting my teeth into these books. Currently I have 4 of the Susan Family Series finished and we are just so excited to see what you think.

Joe has been doing a tour in Zurich and the UK. He's enjoying being out there with you the readers and his fans of wrestling. He wanted me to say hello from him to you.

Now onto why your here. The review of this great short read.

A Valentine For Emma

By Pam Binder

Blurb: 

Take time for love… 

When Emma and Bjorn attend a Valentine's Day Ball they are accidentally thrown back in time to the French Revolution. Surrounded by revolutionists, their only chance to find their path home is to work together. 

Emma Grey owns a bakery in a cozy retail village outside the bustle of Seattle. She has recipes for Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups, Candy Bar Cookies and even Vegan Chocolate Date Delights. She doesn’t, however, have a recipe for love and romance. 

Björn spends half his time as a fisherman in the dangerous waters of Alaska, and the other half following his father’s advice never to marry. 

Most couples need one matchmaker to help them overcome their barriers. 
Emma and Björn will need three. 

Review:

This was the sort of time travel romance novel that should be out there. 

The settings were prefect, the magic made the book truly stand out.
Leading heroine Emma showed her struggles to let go of her past and her

fears in order to be with the man she loves with the whole of her
heart. A man that she is denying herself.

Bjorg makes up the troubled hero perfectly as he shares some of the same 

painful events that Emma has experienced. What he doesn't know is that he 

needs to move by the ideas and lessons his father has drilled into his mind to 

make himself happy. For one year he carries a secret around with him and 

more to the point he holds onto his feelings.

Both get a shot at true happiness one night in the opening of a wonderful 

cafe. The story doesn't just stop with amazing heroines and heros. We
have the sisters of the cafe who are bound to follow old laws and rituals to 

do with their magic. Could be one of the sister be planning to change
everything?

I felt myself drawn to the sisters who owned the new cafe at the end. I hope

that this wonderful author will continue with Fiona's story. I think that Pam 

Binder has done more than earn her success. She has shown a great deal of 

passion for what she does and I can't wait to see what else she comes out with. 

Her mind and style is detailed, well planned along with many other tricks of the 

writing trade that are often missed. She has a great piece of work here and its 

earned more than 5 stars for sure.

Review of "The Tree Man" By DW Gillespie

Dear Readers,

So despite facing hard times at home with medical problems I'm still editing and working hard with Amanda Struz. I can tell you that she is amazing and her work on coversbystruz.com is an amazing book cover website. Those of you who wanted to get book covers like me this is the place to go.

I'm promising that we have a lot of hype behind the book that is coming out called "Flame". I know that you will be squealing when you see the authors who showed never ending support towards this book coming out with Indie Gyspy.

Now I will get on with the review of DW Gillespie's Tree Man which wasn't my cup of tea however I still was professional when I reviewed it. These are what I found in the book and my opinion is my own.

Tree Man Review

5 Stars

When the wind died down and the rain receded, the storm left more than just broken limbs for the small town family to clean up. In the crook of an ancient, lightning-struck tree, they find something they never expected. 

A skeleton, the bony arms entwined, hidden away from the sun. 

No one knew how it came to rest inside of the tree, but each of them see something different in those hollow eyes. 

Hope. Fortune. Madness. 

The Treeman offers this, and more. But the price they pay might be greater than any of them imagined.

My Review:

The darkness level in this particular book will have those who are into very dark and twisted stories watering at the mouth. This short story will repulse, scare and make you think all in one sitting. This book isn't for the faint of heart or those who enjoy soft horrors. The Tree Man is the sort of story that you read on Halloween and spend the rest of the night sitting in your best with a flashlight, weapon of some kind wishing that you read it in the delight. I think that those who love Stephen King books will find that this pushes the boundaries just like many of his other pieces.

If this was the intent by the author then I applaud them as they successfully succeeded.

Thank you for your patience between my reviews. I hope that you will continue to subscribe and keep up with my reviews and blogs. I hope that you will find these so helpful.
