Review of Spin Me Round #2 by Elle Carmichael


Garnet Delaware is one of LA’s best DJs, although her fight to the top has been far from easy. Life was tough after leaving home at sixteen, but she’s shed sweat and tears to earn the respect of the music industry and is now content in the arms of her girlfriend, Lena. When Garnet is offered the opportunity of a lifetime —performing at music festivals around the country in her breakout tour— she can’t wait to take the next step. However, she’s not looking forward to leaving Lena behind, even if the separation is only temporary.

NFL bad boy Wesley Black has disgraced himself, throwing away his football career. Now he is determined to get back on track to prove he has his life under control. And despite the fact that his dreams have been flushed down the toilet, he wants to redeem himself by helping Garnet achieve hers. But his desire for Garnet grows, so when the tour that he’s managing ends, Wes isn’t ready to let her slip away so easily.

Plans are not always set in stone. An unexpected turn almost ruins Garnet’s career, and the person she most despises wants to help her find her way back. Turns out, the truth has a way of unlocking secrets that can either make Garnet stronger or destroy everything she’s worked so hard to build. 

*This is a serial. The installments are not novel length.* 




Overall Rating:  4.25 Rockin’ ★★★★

After the way book one ended, my emotions were bouncing all over the place.  I needed to read the next installment of Spin Me Round, book two by Elle Carmichael. It picks up two weeks after Wes and Gar's night of unbridled passion and guilt is consuming Gar. Due to her inebriated state, only small bits and pieces flitter through her mind, and those memories have her wanting something she never believed she would.  Her three year relationship with her partner Lena is at stake and she doesn't want to hurt her.

We are also given a view into the mind and thoughts of Wes, which we didn't have in, part one.  The steam is off the charts as the battle for everlasting love continues and there are many questions that I have and want answered.  

What will Gar do? Will she reveal to Lena what happened or sweep it under the rug? Why is Wes so enamored with Gar? What motivates him? 

It seems we will have to wait for the next installment in this ongoing drama.

Siri's Saga Synopsis: (Say that three times really fast!) 

Bestselling Author of Siri's Saga.
UNTOUCHABLE describes Siri Wright until she meets Aurelius Moore. From the first time their eyes connect, there are fireworks and the game is on, but both harbor secrets that threaten the very real possibility of having a beautiful thing together. 

Aurelius Moore, 24, is an Army helicopter pilot, an alpha male in every sense of the term, who knows what he wants and makes it happen. In Vegas, he wants Seary, but she is untouchable. When she vanishes, he returns home to Alabama to wait for her return. I will have her! 

Siri Wright, 24, is a successful Vegas Star, but she is NOT stereotypical. While she knows sex and works her moneymaker, she is more than an exotic entertainer. She is a gifted dancer with a ballet background, who has turned her talent into a specialty niche which has made her rich and famous, but her identity is top-secret! She is untouchable and lives under the protection of celebrity status. She is kept isolated and alone.  

When a family emergency brings her back to Alabama, she meets Moore and wants him! But she is mindful of her stripper stereotype, and doesn't want him to label her a whore before he gets a chance to know the real Siri Wright, so she is careful to only show him the fun loving girl, not Seary, the Sex Diva, who has so many secrets! What's one more? 

Secrets! Secrets! Secrets! 

They both have more than anyone knows and could possibly guess! Can their beautiful thing survive all their secrets as they are unveiled and unraveled? And what about the Cocktail Party?

UNTOUCHABLE Excerpt:

A low groan escapes him. Laying my head sidewise as I lick my lips, confident I have made him horny as hell, I smirk. "Like that?" His hooded eyes and his hungry expression were nothing compared to the dark look on his face now.... Wide eyed, I watch him struggling, knowing instinctively not to move, to wait. For all my experiences in Vegas, I have never seen this expression before. The intensity is truly as frightening as it is exciting. I can see and feel the ferocity of his passion. It looks and feels like a storm. Holy f*cking hell! The electricity between us sends my hand to reach for him and his eyes dart to it, then they look directly into mine. The piercing power touches something deep inside me and whatever it is comes alive! Damn, that look turns me on! He is a f*cking fine Beast who would feast on me! I pull my hand back. I would let you f*ck me right now, Mr. Moore, and that's never happened to me before!

"Damn straight. Just like that." He growls.


Bestselling Author of Siri's Saga.
UNSTOPPABLE describes Aurelius Moore when it comes to Siri Wright.
When a death threat is made, Aurei and Siri flee to his home in Rome, where Siri learns all there is to know about a man NO ONE TRULY KNOWS. Despite her confidence that the dark is only dark until the light shines on it, Aurei has some very dark secrets that Siri will have to come to terms with as they explore this beautiful thing they have found. Aurei's secrets are even more private and potentially more devastating than hers. 

Secrets! Secrets! Secrets! 

They both have more than anyone knows and could possibly guess! Having survived the unveiling of her secrets, will they survive the unraveling of his? 

UNSTOPPABLE EXCERT:
"Tell me. Tell me what you NEED me to do." His voice is getting deeper. I can hear the beginning of a rumble. 
My lips spew the words and as they fall off my tongue unfiltered, I know when I say them that they are perfect. "COMPLETE me."
He freezes, hovering. I can feel his breath, blowing gently across it as it waits for release, hard and throbbing. His voice is low. The words come slow. "What did you just say?" 
I almost lose it with his soft breath. I grit my teeth and tell him again. "I NEED YOU to COMPLETE me!" I lift my head off the floor and look down at him inches from my pussy. 
"Damn!" He stares up at me, then pushes up and crawls to stare into my eyes.

***WARNING*** This novel contains explicit language, sex, drugs, violence, and sexual situations that some might find offensive. This book is intended for adults 18+ years of age.


In my world, there is no such thing as love. It is just a lie we whisper into our client’s ear. Love is foreign and hazardous. What I did not expect was to bare my soul to a man who is as egotistical as he is dangerous.
His name is Landon. Despite his blackened soul, he tried to save me, but what he didn't expect was my torturous fate to catch up with me.
To your father, I'm the escort.
To your mother, I'm the whore.
To the legal system, I'm the prostitute.
In the end, I'm just the other woman.
I have no idea if I will continue to survive, if I will ever find my path aside from the gritty streets I know so well. There is a good chance I will wind up in the ditch like most women in my position. Surrendering to my fate is the only choice I have. I must relinquish it all.

Excerpt
Following Jayden across the way, I skim the crowd at the café and land on a pair of handsome eyes. So handsome, I stop walking.
Sitting at a table full of sexy men is a short, blond-haired guy, his face hard and chiseled. My God, his arms are pumped with muscle as his hands flex around a brown football. My core blossoms with incredible need as I eye his toned arms, and what I assume is a matching hard chest beneath his jersey.
“Charlie, let’s go!”Jayden yells, making me realize I’ve been standing here like an idiot, staring at a sexy stranger in a café. The guy smirks at me and tosses the football in the air, breaking eye contact.
I tuck my hair behind my ear, giving a small smile in return before walking forward. I suddenly crash into something, the impact throwing me back on my ass hard.
“Shit!”I shout with pain.
“Fuck!”roars a male voice standing above me. My eyes jolt upward to find a broad-shouldered man in a black suit, holding a broken plastic cup in one hand with coffee spilled all down his front.  My stomach tangles into a bundle of tight knots, and my hands tremble from the strength and power this man radiates. Oh, shit.
“I am so sorry!”I stand up and start frantically brushing at the man’s very expensive-looking suit. My God, it’s like rubbing a rock. His body is so toned and strong beneath my palms, which isn’t helping me get a grip on myself. My eyes skirt up his arms, finding the fabric stretched tight around his biceps and causing me to swallow the lump forming in my throat. The knots in my stomach crawl into a fit of butterflies, and my heart races. He’s handsome—intimidating, really. The way his toned body and squared shoulders take up the space takes my breath away. His jaw is chiseled to perfection with scruff claiming it perfectly. I bite my bottom lip to keep from moaning.
“It’s fine, really,”he states, his voice deep as he grabs my wrists to stop me from slapping at his stained shirt pathetically. My body sparks with electricity where he grips me firmly. My mouth parts and my breathing shallows as I slowly trail my eyes from his hold on my wrist to his eyes. They’re green with little brown flecks thrown around them. They’re captivating. His jawline is strong and defined, his nose broad, and his dark hair is smoothed back with just a trail hanging loosely out of place on the front of his forehead from our sudden run-in. He’s fucking gorgeous, and I can’t look away.
“Are you all right?”he questions, raising an eyebrow. His voice is low and rough, making my eyes focus on his mouth.
“I-”I stutter, completely lost in the thought of his luscious lips on mine. These lips are not like any belonging to the guys at my high school, that’s for sure. When you look at them, his lips look like they’re made to make love to a woman’s body. The thoughts of the glorious pleasure they could bring make my cheeks warm, my chest ache.
“Charlie, let’s go!”Jayden hollers, catching mine and Sexy Man In a Suit’s attention.
“That your friend?”he asks, his lips that hold the perfect cupid’s bow turn into a slight smirk.
I open my mouth to speak but a wild hiccup noise escapes instead, caused from the wild beat of my heart against my chest. I close my eyes, humiliated.
He chuckles, releasing his hold of my wrists. The way he laughs causes my skin to rise with goose bumps.
“I gotta go,”I whisper nervously. I look down and stride quickly toward Jayden, praying I don’t bump into any more hot men on the way.
“Lord, give me strength. Vegas is already becoming a bad influence,”I mutter, catching up with Jayden.

Blog Tour: Kinkaid by Rie Warren












BLURB:
From the world of Carolina Bad Boys and Retribution MC, a steamy New Adult standalone novella . . . Magic Mike XXL ain’t got nothin’ on Kinky Kinkaid.

Kinkaid:
Bonafide pussy magnet. Kinky Kaid I wanna get laid. Yeah, I’ve been called that shit and more. It comes with the territory. See, I’m a male stripper. I shake my moneymaker so I can pay the bills and take care of my people.


I’m also a hardcore, hell-bent biker dude, the newest prospect at Retribution MC. Probie 2.0, and they can never find out how I earn my living. Women love me. They toss their panties at me. They push hundred dollar bills into my G-string. I’m down and dirty and the honeys dig it. All
but one.

There’s this girl, Sadie. She’s beautiful and funny and kickass with some major ink. I’d never make a move on her because she’s my best friend.


Sadie:
Best friend? Bullshit. Kinkaid treats me like I’m his kid sister. I’m the hell-raiser, the tomboy dirt biker, his late night call but never like that. He thinks he’s safe from me. I’m going to prove him wrong. I’ll make him see me as a woman one way or the other.


When I find out what Kinkaid’s been hiding there’s hell to pay. Except then he gives me a lap dance. A hot, wicked, panty-melting lap dance. A lap dance that unleashes our intense desire, fresh jealousy, distrust and anger.


Everything changes after that, and not for the better. I love him. I hate him. I can’t lose him. Sometimes I can’t stand him. He’s hot as sin on a sultry lowcountry night, and he’s still my best friend.


I don’t know if he’s man enough to give me what I need.

Warning: Graphic sex, graphic action, graphic language. Triple X caution.

EXCERPT: 

I accepted a stiff drink from Rebel-Mae, the funky punk bartender with the glow-in-the-dark pink
fauxhawk, forgetting for a moment I was the Grade-A beef in the joint. No sooner than I took my first sip of Jack, women surrounded me, pressing against me, panting all over me.


I couldn’t very well leave the clients out in the cold. I slung an arm around one of them and smiled
at another, raising my eyes in a help-me expression across the bar toward Rebel-Mae when something familiar snagged my gaze.


I did a double take. Then a triple look.


Then my legs almost collapsed out from under me. My heart went sluggish. My body felt cold. My gaze stopped on none other than Sadie my-motherfucking-best-friend Grace.


Holeeey Shit.

She stared at me with wide unblinking eyes and pink spots on her cheeks.


Everything got real hot, real fast. I hadn’t been this nekkie in front of my best girl since . . . oh yeah . . . never. I was acutely aware of that fact as Sadie’s eyes coasted painstakingly from the top of my head all the way to my toes like she was taking inventory.


My heart returned to its normal rhythm then it decided to go one better and jackhammer in my chest. I returned Sadie’s stare with the same scrutiny. No wonder I hadn’t picked her out in the crowd. Sitting about five feet away from me, she looked like a complete stranger . . . a very sexy stranger.


Sadie usually wore paint-splattered coveralls, torn jeans, and baggy T-shirts with her thick hair
braided down her back. Tonight her hair hung loose and straight as a sunbeam. It reminded me of the beach at Isle of Palms—a mixture of white gold and sun-spun brown, little sparks of red filtered in. Soft and silky and silty.


It wasn’t just the hair that blew me away. Sadie had curves all of a sudden. Where the hell had those come from? The killer dress was the same turquoise blue as her eyes and made her irises stand out all the more. The dress? Oh man, it was silk or something, cinched at her waist with a straight skirt that didn’t go low enough on her thighs as far as I was concerned. And the top? That was no better. The neckline needed to be a lot higher, turtleneck high, come to think of it. As it was, the
damn thing hugged what looked like perfectly round tits, a suspicion supported by the fact a tight V of tawny cleavage was very, very visible.


Finally—dear Lord—her long willowy legs ended in inappropriately strappy, high heels. Not her
standard, sexy Fox Racing Moto-X boots. This was not the regulation Sadie uniform I was used to. Her outfit definitely affected the blood pounding through my body—loudly in my ears and coursing lower at an alarming rate to my cock. My cock that was barely covered in black mesh. Yeah, it was about to bulk up.


Sadie only glanced away from me when one of her group tapped her on the shoulder. The chicks giggled and whispered, and my worst fears were soon confirmed. It was a bachelorette party. Yep, one of the babes wore a veil and a white sash that read: Bridezilla! Tall glasses littered the table, and out of each one popped every bride-to-be’s favorite party favor: a plastic penis straw. The women were well lubricated, well on their way to Happyville with a trip to Hangover City in the morning.


Sadie didn’t look happy. Not one bit.


I’d thought her discovering my dirty little secret was the worst of it.


I was proven wrong in the next instant when Sadie’s crazed posse pointed at me, chanting, “LAP DANCE! LAP DANCE! LAP DANCE!”


You have got to be fucking kidding me.

But no. It got a million times worse when Bride-fucking-zilla (that shit was no joke apparently) got up, drunk-swayed over to me, and pushed me at Sadie.


“With her!” Bridezilla shouted as I stumbled in Sadie’s direction.


“WHAT?” I caught myself moments before I face-dived between Sadie’s legs, rocked backward, and then quickly moved clear to the other side of the table. Where my ass was immediately pinched.


Bridezilla looked expectantly at me then Sadie.


“What?” Sadie echoed my question.


“Well, you two can’t keep your eyes off each other,” said the blonde wifey-to-be. “Might as well get your hands in on the action too.”


This can't be happening . . 

Jesus fucking Christ.


Yahoo! said my cock.


That thing needed a choke on it.

Older brother/best friend? I felt none of those things all of a sudden, especially when Sadie looked in my direction and slowly wet her lips.


Maybe shock and horror wasn’t quite what she was feeling after all.


I was definitely hot-faced, and no way did I want to give my best friend—my hottie hot best friend—a freakin’ lap dance. Unfortunately the rules were the rules.


“Gotta go change first,” I mumbled.

Would I recommend this book: Yes! You have your MC romance with a twist, Probie 2.0 is a male stripper at a gentlemen’s club and no one knows about it, or so he thinks.  This is a hilarious read, sometimes with tongue in cheek humor and yet still filled with love, drama and sizzling heat!
Would I recommend these authors: Yes! Each book that I read by this author reaches another level of the WOW factor!  As you read, you discover characters that not only touch your heart but remain after the book is finished.  The plots are deep but at the same time, simple with the stories they convey!
