Review: Curves 'em Right (Paranormal Dating Agency #4) by Milly Taiden

Paranormal Dating Agency Book 4 - STANDALONE

A BBW in search of love + two sexy wolf shifters ready to claim her as their mate = Sizzling Ménage Romance

Daniella Flores is looking for a good man. A man who will accept her as she is and go crazy for her curves. So far she’s had no luck in the romance department and is worried she might never find the right one. When Mrs. Wilder of the PDA offers to help, Dani is all for trying anything. Mrs. Wilder promises to find her love, romance and hot sex. What woman in her right mind would say no to that?

Kane and Blake have been searching for a mate to complete their Alpha triad. There’s just one problem: they’ve yet to find a woman they both want. Not to worry, Kane’s mother comes to the rescue and brings in the PDA. Unfortunately for them, Mrs. Wilder has something up her sleeve and it’s not a bra. When they meet their mysterious date, they know she’s the woman they need.

A masquerade ball brings Dani and the shifters together. The two men who are really good friends with Dani’s overprotective older brother. She’ll get one chance to finally live the fantasy night she’s always wanted with the wild wolves. Besides, it’s not like they could really want her for a mate. It will take some maneuvering for Kane and Blake to keep Dani, not lose their friend and their pack, and prove her curves are the only ones they want.

Reader Warning: This book contains panty-melting sex (the kind that makes you need fudge and a cold shower), adult language (we like some freaky dirty talk), and violence. If this is not the kind of stuff you like to read, skip this book. However, if you like dirty, raunchy sex with two men on one curvy sarcastic girl, then this is right up your alley. Enjoy!

Overall Rating:  4.5 Rockin’ ★★★★☆

First let me say that I loved this book! It was a fun, sexy read that I didn’t want to put down until I finished the last page. It was well written and flowed perfectly.  The characters were so real that I fell in love with each of them. Loved the way the author started this book with Daniella’s chance meeting with Ms. Wilder at the bakery.  But knowing Geri Wilder from previous books in this series, it was not a chance meeting.  The author’s last book gave a perfect lead in to this one!

The use of a Paranormal Dating Agency is a unique concept and really plays well in this novella!  Loved the way it transitioned from Dani’s past crush to the present day. Also, the way the book explained Blake and Kane’s reason for staying away from Dani even though they were attracted to her when she was younger! When Dani shifted to protect her brother it really added a lot to the book! That shift proved that she was an alpha female and a worthy mate for her two hot hunks.

I love Dani!  She is smart, intriguing and so free!  An empowered woman who is comfortable in her own skin, even if it's not a typical size 4!  The Alpha and Omega are just plain hot!  The fact that they each have certain qualities that make up a whole is just so cool.  Both characters are smoldering and have a depth that leaves me wanting more of them or wanting my own triad!!!  The story kept me interested.  I think that the animal magnetism totally rocked!  It just goes to show how nature is natural!!!  

Hero:  4.5 stars
Heroine:  4.5 stars
Plot:  4.5 stars
Steam Level:  4.5 stars
Cliffhanger:  Yes

Would I recommend this book:  Yes.  This is a hot, sexy read that involves two alpha males and one feisty female that wants to be loved.  A really great read that really sizzles!
Would I recommend this author:  Yes. Milly Taiden left me panting for the next book in this series with her teaser in the Epilogue.  Once again she did a fantastic job setting up her next book in this series. I cannot wait to read more about Geri Wilder and her amazing matchmaking skills.

Review: Teach Me (Southern Nights #1) by Ella Sheridan

A woman determined to heal…

Shy researcher Jess Kingston spent the last eight weeks recovering from her ex-boyfriend’s brutal attack. Body healed, she’s ready to put her life back together—except her ex isn’t ready to let go. She won’t cower in a corner while Brit tortures her, but she’s powerless to fight back.

A man determined to resist…

Ex-military security specialist Conlan James avoids commitment like the plague. His job, his Harley, and the occasional one-night stand are all he needs, until the day he rescues Jess from a tense situation and realizes he can’t get her off his mind. He can teach her to protect herself, but protecting his heart is another matter.

A madman determined to win…

As the deadly game of cat-and-mouse with Brit heats up, so does the hunger between Con and Jess. Safety might be found in numbers, but in bed, all bets are off—and the wrong move could lead to heartbreak. Or death.

When a sexy man steps in and saves her, she feels hope for the first time.

Conlan James is a survivor!  He has survived tours in war torn areas and returned home whole.  Or did he?  He lost is best friend on his last tour when they were ambushed. Con cannot stop himself from believing that his friend just gave up because his girlfriend dumped him. He now wants no part of the love word.  That is until he rescues a woman from an abusive relationship.  The fight is on between his head and his heart.  He believes that he can teach her how to protect herself and that he will be able to keep her safe. 

When her ex escalates his attacks, Con and Jess must work together to put an end to the insanity. Will they find a way to convince the authorities that her ex is dangerous?  Can Con keep Jess out of the hands of a mad man?  Read this intense mystery romance to find out more!

Review: Freed (Club Sin #4) by Stacey Kennedy

Fans who can’t get enough of USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy will love this wicked, wild spinoff novel that explores how sexy life can be outside Club Sin.

Mary Schmidt knows only too well how thrilling a Master’s touch can be. Her husband, Charles, had been her ultimate fantasy, a seducer in the erotic dance of dominance and submission. She misses the sensual lifestyle they shared, but mourns him so deeply she cannot bear to embrace her submissive needs with another Dom—until a man who exudes temptation reawakens desires she can no longer deny.

Elliott Foster is dazzled by Mary. He instantly knows that she’s the woman he’s been waiting for—a woman who turns games into need. As her Master, he dares to unlock the deepest pleasures of her flesh, releasing her from pain and healing her mind. When Mary’s lithe body comes to life under his, he knows their connection goes beyond sex. Now that he has found the perfect woman, the perfect partner, the perfect submissive, he desires only to give her everything she craves.


NOTE: Freed is an erotic romance intended for mature audiences.

Overall Rating:  4 Rockin’ ★★★★

Does life really end when you lose your other half?  The one you had shared your life with? Raised your children with?  Lived the BDSM lifestyle with?  This is the next book in the Club Sin series by Stacey Kennedy.  It looks at the BDSM lifestyle through the eyes of an established DOM and Submissive. It is also about rebirth of passion and a renewal of life.

Mary Schmidt had it all, a family and a husband that she loved and that loved her in return.  When he is taken from her it is difficult to move on with her life.  Suddenly she is alone and wanting more.  While having dinner with friends at their home she meets an intriguing male that she immediately identifies as a DOM. He is her age and her submissive self recognizes and wants to get to know him better.  She accepts an invitation to a gathering of like-minded people from him.  Is this the path for her?  Can Elliott be a new beginning for her?

Elliott Foster is immediately drawn to the beautiful Mary when he meets her at his friend’s home.  He can tell that she is a submissive and responds to him beautifully.  He knows that this is the woman that he has been waiting for and wants the chance to claim her as his own.  Will Mary be able to leave her past behind and take the steps to a future with him?

Hero: Elliott Foster 4 stars
Heroine: 
Mary Schmidt 4 stars
Plot:  4 stars
Steam Level:  4 stars
Cliffhanger:  No

Would I recommend this book:  Yes.  This is a sweet romance that sizzles with the BDMS lifestyle and proves that age has nothing to do with finding love. It also shows that it is never too late to find your HEA.

Would I recommend this author:  Yes. Ms. Kennedy once again dazzles her reading audience with her wit and insight into the BDSM lifestyle.  I look forward to reading her next book.

Book Summary


One crazy dog—one awkward vet—one naked pool guy—and one life-changing month in California to make friends, fall in love, and twist fate.

Who gets paid to walk a dog and recline by the pool all day? Sydney Montgomery, aspiring museum curator and professional house-sitter, that’s who.

When her aunt and uncle need a house and dog sitter for thirty days in Palo Alto, Sydney can’t turn down the chance to be closer to her sister in L.A. Within twenty-four hours of her arrival, Sydney’s cleaning up runny dog poo, taking an uncooperative pooch to a handsome yet awkward vet, and being rescued from the bottom of the pool by a naked “pool guy.”

Lautner, “pool guy,” has a hot body and a cool persona. With eyes of iridescent blue oceans, he is mesmerizing, sexy, and addictive. What he is not—the pool guy.

Dr. Lautner Sullivan is a college wide receiver turned pediatric resident. He knows how to woo a woman with flowers, pastries, and sweet tea. Lautner is every girl’s dream, but Sydney is not every girl. She’s immune to rainbows, fairytales, pixy dust, and the “L” word.

The attraction is immediate, the friendship is earned, and the love is undeniable. Thirty days is their forever, but forever is not long enough.

A standalone Contemporary Romance novel!

Emerson Ray is trouble. Juliet knows it the minute she lays eyes on Beachwood Bay's resident bad boy. Forced to spend her summer before college in the sleepy beach town, she never expected to crash into the most devastating guy she’s ever met—or for Emerson’s blue eyes to strip through her dark secrets, and make her feel a desire she’s never known. Their connection is undeniable, but Juliet is torn. She knows, once she gives him everything, there’ll be no turning back.



Juliet McKenzie is dangerous. Emerson can tell from the way she blows through all his defences, laying bare the demons he’s carried alone all his life. He’s left a trail of broken hearts and empty beds in his wake, but Juliet is different. Her innocence is intoxicating—and the passion she keeps hidden, just below the surface. He wants to be the only one to set it free, but with every kiss, he’s closer to losing control and doing the one thing he swore he never would: fall in love.

One summer. Two damaged hearts. Their story is only just beginning…
