The Devil you know

33360090

Damian Tate. One look into his sad green eyes and I was hooked. I wanted to be the one to make him laugh, to make him smile. I hadn't expected him to be the one to make me blush, to make me hot...to make me fall in love. He was my first kiss, my first love, my first everything. I wanted forever with him, but life got in the way.

He enlisted, I went to college, and for years we were never in the same place long enough to pick up where we left off.

Thirteen years after he left, tragedy brings him home. The stoic boy I fell in love with grew into a quiet, dangerous and wildly sexy man. He still tugs on all the right strings for me, but he seems determined to keep me at arm's-length. 

However, when trouble comes knocking at my door, he is the one to put himself between that trouble and me. 

Spending time with him might drive me insane, or it might be our second chance at first love.


*************************


Damian & Thea were meant to be together but Damian's past was getting in the way. As these two see each other over the years Damian is quite and kind of a jerk but he has his reasons. Thea won't give up on him not matter how much she knows she should. When he is finally back things end up getting messy and he still keeps Thea at arm's length. Once the dust settles he has to make a decision when it comes to Thea. Some hot, steamy sex scenes. Fantastic ending.

Silent Waters

29963453


Moments.

Our lives are a collection of moments. Some utterly painful and full of yesterday's hurts. Some beautifully hopeful and full of tomorrow's promises.

I’ve had many moments in my lifetime, moments that changed me, challenged me. Moments that scared me and engulfed me. However, the biggest ones—the most heartbreaking and breathtaking ones—all included him.

I was ten years old when I lost my voice. A piece of me was stolen away, and the only person who could truly hear my silence was Brooks Griffin. He was the light during my dark days, the promise of tomorrow, until tragedy found him. Tragedy that eventually drowned him in a sea of memories.

This is the story of a boy and girl who loved each other, but didn’t love themselves. A story of life and death. Of love and broken promises.

Of moments.


****************************




Maggie May had finally gotten her family & she was planning her wedding to her neighbor Brooks. She is quite a bit to take in but she ends up convincing Brooks to go along with her plans. However, tragedy struck and changes everyone's lives - Maggie May's most of all. Brooks & Maggie grow close over the years - he's the only one who sees her. It's a beautiful love but Maggie has to let him go to follow his dreams. The years go by and they stay connected but for Brooks, no one would ever come before Maggie. When she needs him he comes home and yet again tragedy strikes again but this time is Maggie that needs to step up. Things get messy but when it all settles she will finally be free. Some sex scenes but nothing graphic or raunchy. Amazing ending.

Friction


33137720

Former overachiever Lucy WillIams sucks at adulting.

Recent divorce, check.

Pending lawsuit, check.

A move back to Boston to live with her mother, triple check.

It can't get much worse, right?

When she starts her new marketing job at EXtreme Effects, she's positive shit’s stopped hitting the fan. Sure, what she's advertising is a little ... unorthodox, but it pays the bills. And since she's seconds away from becoming Lucy Williams: Wednesday Night Bingo Enthusiast, she needs money to get the hell out of her mother’s house.

The only problem is her boss, Mr. Extreme himself: Jace Exley. He’s everything any sane woman dreams of—alpha, successful, ridiculously gorgeous. He's also Lucy’s worst nightmare. Because like every overachiever, she has that underachiever she brushed off. The slacker who, once upon a time ago, was the object of her dirtiest schoolgirl fantasies.

Jace Exley—with his sarcastic smirk and delicious accent—just happens to be that guy.

And the friction between them?

Well, that's the only adulting Lucy seems to be winning at
 



***************




Lucy is running home from a mess but she is determined to start over. When she finally gets a job interview the last person she excepted to see was the boy she crushed on when she was a kid. She didn't think he could get hotter but he did. Lucy was the beautiful girl in high school that busted his chops and was too good for him.  The attraction between these two are off the charts but work and sex don't mix. The attraction builds until they can no longer take it but it's casual sex - or so they say. When something happens and blows both their worlds apart it's ugly. Lucy does all she can to make it right now it's up to Jace to realize what they have is real. The sex scenes where smoking hot! Fantastic ending .

Lovesick

32824146

I couldn’t do broken. 

Broken is what he was. 

Broken is what I will always be.

To his eyes, that held so much despair, I couldn’t look for long. 

To his fist, that clenched so tightly, like he was locking away the sorrow. 

To his lips, that never uttered a word, from the years of heartbreak. 

And despite it all, I couldn’t stay away from him. 

It was like he was drowning in an ocean, and I wanted to grab his face, and whisper to his lips, “Don’t forget to breathe.”

This was how I fell for a man. A man who was so lovesick, I was afraid he would drown me in that same ocean he was lost in.

The Design

23453723

Five minutes until the interview begins. 

Fresh on the heels of her college graduation, Cameron Heart has landed an interview at a prestigious architecture firm.

Four minutes until the interview. 

She knows she’s only there because the owner, Grayson Cole, is her older sister’s friend.

Three minutes. 

For the last seven years, Grayson has been the most intimidating man Cammie has ever had the pleasure, or displeasure, of being around.

Two Minutes. 

But the job opportunity is too good to pass up. So, Cammie will have to ignore the fact that Grayson is handsome enough to have his own national holiday. 

One. 

After all, she shouldn’t feel that way about her new boss. And, he will be her new boss.




****************




Cammie lost her parents at a young age and she just hasn't quite found herself yet. She has a plan though and one she entends on following through with. When she lands a job at Cole Design it's going to be hard to see her crush everyday but when he drops a bomb on her during the interview he just challenged her. Cammie finally gets Grayson to break his rules and it's more than she hoped for. They both are hiding things and when it all blows up Cammie's sharp tongue keeps Grayson at bay. Now that they are thrown together Grayson is going to fight for her. Some hot sex- nothing detailed or raunchy. Fantastic ending.

Love in Lingerie


33133783



I hired her to fix my company, to bring Marks Lingerie back to life. I didn’t expect her to become my friend. I didn’t expect to fall in love with her.

The first rule of business is to never touch your employees. I think there is another rule about not falling for your best friend—a rule against imagining the curves of her body, or the way her breathing would change if I pulled down her panties and unzipped my pants.

Now, I can’t wait any longer. I’m tossing out the rules.

Damn the company.
Damn our friendship.
Damn my fears.
 



********************



I think this is the first on of Alessandra Torre's books that I read that I didn't get a total shocking twist (there are only 2 of her books I haven't read). 
Trey has a sexual kink and when it bites him in the butt he is left calling his new employee who he is utter attracted to to come save him. Kate lands her dream job but oh lordy is her boss the hottest man she has ever seen. Trey makes is clear there will never be anything between them but as they fight to save his business they sure do flirt. The sexual tension is so thick sometime you just want to cry. Years go by and at some point it has to come to a head. When it does it's explosively amazing. Now Kate needs to know if her vanilla ways will be enough for a forever with Trey. Not many sex scenes but they are HOT. Fantastic ending.

The Allure of Julian Lefray

From: JosephineKeller@LLDesigns.com

Subject: Justin Timberlake Nudes!


Lily, you predictable perv. I knew you’d open this email faster if I tempted you with a glimpse of JT's “PP”. Well, put your pants back on and grab some bubbly because I have much better news to share.

I GOT A JOB!

As of tomorrow, I’ll be the new executive assistant at Lorena Lefray Designs. I am SO excited, but there’s one itty bitty problem: I won’t be Lorena’s assistant. I’ll be working for her older brother, Julian.

I know what you're thinking- "But Jo, what’s the problem?"

Google him. Now. He’s the man in the fitted navy suit whose face reminds you that there’s hope yet for this cruel, ugly world. Keep scrolling…Do you see those dimples? Yup. That’s the Julian Lefray I will be reporting to tomorrow morning.

Lord, help us all...

XO,
Jo

She lands an assistant job but unfortunately she is totally hot for her boss.

Jo needs to go home to Texas to appease her parents but while she is gone Julian realizes just how much he wants more from Jo. Now he has to go get his girl. Jo also has a pretty funny outrageous best friend who is heading to New York to start her future as well.

Gang Bang



32079766

It’s one thing knowing your ex-boyfriend is a bit of a player, but it’s another thing altogether to find out he’s pimping himself out to anyone who’ll pay good money for it.

Not just himself, either. That would be far too regular for Darren Trent. 

Darren Trent – my teenage sweetheart and father to my two young girls – is not just whoring himself out. Oh no. Darren Trent pimps himself out alongside four of his mechanic friends – all of them at the same time. 

Five hot, sweaty mechanics at your service.

They call themselves the Bang Gang… you can imagine. 


In a village our size I should keep my head down and hope the scandal blows over before the girls or my poor old Nanna catch wind of it. 

Only it’s not blowing over. Far from it. It seems every woman in the village wants themselves a five-mechanic sandwich.

They make no qualms about it, either. Just rock on up to my café counter and ask how they can book themselves in for a Bang Gang special. Like I would know. 

I definitely wouldn’t know. I hardly even know Darren Trent anymore. We split up a lifetime ago.

I definitely don’t think about him late at night. Don’t think about five mechanics and me as much as every other woman in this village. 

And even if I did, I wouldn’t act on it. I wouldn’t draw the money from my savings account and have a go for myself.

And even if I did that, I definitely, definitely wouldn’t fall for him. Not again. Not after everything we went through. Not after splitting up the first time nearly brought me to my knees.

Not after settling into a decent routine, the girls and me, with no drama, no heartbreak, no crazy passions to rock the calm little boat we’re sailing on. 

I mean, who would be stupid enough to risk all that over a hot, sweaty, oily bit of rough like Darren Trent?


*************




It's about a gang banging bunch but it's so so much more. Darren is a man if fed words but I think that's why his marriage to Jodie failed. Jodie is a mom(or mum) and has lost herself along the way. As Jodie catches wind of what Darren has been up to she decides it's time to get herself back. Once she starts feel like her old self she wants to take a ride on this gang bang. Darren's feelings bubble yo the surface when Jodie comes to him for things other than what their girls need. It's a sticky mess of unsaid words and people trying to keep them apart. When it looks like they are in the path to forever it all blows up now one of them is going to have to set it straight but they are both busy licking their wounds. Some very hot steamy sex scenes. Fantastic ending.

Fling


32502626

I have a crush on my boss’ best friend. 
At least it’s not my brother’s best friend. 
Or my best friend’s brother. 
Or… never mind. It’s all pretty cliche. 

And worse? My boss’ best friend is his business partner. Which sort of makes him my boss too. Okay - it’s not sort of. It’s definite. Gabe Laurent is off limits. Totally off limits. 

Which is fine. I make do with my imagination. He’ll never know. Ever. Unless my work bestie passes me an eighties-style teen movie sex quiz during a meeting and I fill it out. 

And it ends up in Gabe’s hands…


***************


I love love love Jana Aston & the Fling is nothing short of Amazing! Sandra is sweet, quite & a fabulous employee who might have a little crush on one of her bosses. She however knows that she is not his type so she just admires him from afar. Gabe doesn't really know Sandra exists until he gets ahold of her sex quiz and now he can't stop himself from having a taste. However one night of hot steamy juicy sex won't be enough for him. Now he has to pull his head out of his butt  to get his girl! Fantastic ending.

Perfect Stroke


30804572

This bad boy wants to show her his rock-hard nine-iron…and his smooth stroke. 

C.C. 

Gray Lucas is a bad boy, on and off the green. 
As golf's new media darling, his face is plastered on the front of every tabloid in the country. 
His exploits are legendary--one of which is me.
We had a one-night-stand, before I knew who he was. It was passionate, wild and exhilarating. 
I should forget him. The guy is everything I can't stand – arrogant, entitled, and privileged. 
Then he walks into my garage, looking better than I remember, his eyes tempting me with wicked promises. 
But I'm not about to let a player like him into my bed again.
Not even if I can't stop thinking about the taste of his lips, his magic fingers, or other parts of his anatomy. 

Gray 
I work hard. I play harder. 
Until my playing causes me to lose my main sponsor months before I’m set to win the biggest tournament of my career. 
Now I'm stuck in the middle of nowhere, Kentucky. I need the sponsorship Riverton Metals can provide.
The problem is, my head isn't in the game. I can't stop thinking about the luscious redhead that I only know as CC. We had a one night stand – the best night of my life – but she bolted before I could even get her name.
Imagine my surprise when my car breaks down and the grease monkey under the hood is my dream woman. 
She didn't know who I was then, but now that she does, she wants nothing to do with me and my player ways.
She thinks she can resist me.
But I'm about to show her that this player doesn't lose…and that my nine “inch”-iron can deliver the perfect stroke.


******************


Gray & Cc have a hot hot hot one night stand but when they run into each other again things get crazy. Once Gray figures out who she is he is determined to have her again. These two are crazy about each other but there is a whole lot of crap they have to wade through before they realize it. I have to say Gray's family is pretty funny & I love when cc calls Gray "crayon-man". Some hot steamy sex scenes. Fabulous ending. Can't wait to read more in this series.

Pucked Under



32533899

Randy Ballistic and Lily LeBlanc are head-over-heels, bed-breakingly, screaming orgasmically in love. But even they have their challenges, mostly outside of the bedroom. 

With the off-season coming to a close and the boys gearing up for training camp, one more weekend of fun is the perfect way to welcome the new season. 

The entire crew piles into vehicles and drives to Alex and Violet’s Chicago cottage for a few days of relaxation―and hopefully a chance for Randy to shake the anxiety that’s been plaguing him. 

Accidental wardrobe malfunctions, typical Violet inspired overshares, and a whole lot of private time round out the perfect weekend getaway. 

But the moment they return to the city all of Randy’s angst resurfaces with the arrival of a surprise houseguest. 

************************


Lilly & Randy are just as funny and hot as the rest of the couples. Randy has some baggage he needs to sort through and Lilly knows just what he needs at every turn. Lots of info on the whole gang. Of course a lot of hot steamy sex scenes. Fantastic ending. I'm hoping we get Lance's story soon.

Hard Edge

31343426 


It was strange how when things happened, they almost inevitably happened in giant cloud bursts. Grady's death had started the cloud burst, and it had been pouring rain ever since. 

Kenna
I'd spent half my teenage years dreaming about being that girl, the girl who would finally steal the most elusive heart in town but I'd left that life behind--or so I thought.

My life had been feeling pretty damn solid, but somewhere along the way, the ground beneath my feet had softened. And now--now he was there. Like a lightning bolt I never saw coming After years of dreaming, I finally knew what real love felt like, but our relationship was fragile and I feared it would shatter easily.

Caden
It seemed she'd never considered the possibility that she was a heartbreaker, that she was the type of girl who could wrap herself around your soul with just her laugh.

Tragedy had reunited us. She had always been in my heart. I'd finally found my way back to the girl I loved, and I didn't want anything to get in the way of that. But my life rarely went the way I wanted.


***************************************




Kenna might have gone away to live her own life but deep down she knew something was missing. When she is brought back to her home town for the death of her best friend it just feels right to be there. When her long time crush shows up and they start hanging out it becomes clear this is where she wants to be. Caden has held a torch for Kenna since he first meet her but he kept it under wraps because she was just to good for him. When their feelings for each other come out they are up against an impossible wall trying to make a go of things. Guilt eats at Kenna and misunderstandings send her running back to her old life. Caden is heartbroken but eventually gets with the program and it off to get his girl. Some hot sex scenes. Fantastic ending.
