Synopsis

A closeted football star. An out and proud photographer. And a road trip.
Wade Truman had grown accustomed to admiring Heath Taylor from afar. Now, years of denying himself and the irresistible Heath are wreaking havoc on Wade’s resolve. The odds are stacked against them … they’re graduating college soon. Wade just signed a multimillion dollar football deal—thrusting him even further into the spotlight. Not to mention, what would the gorgeously refined Heath want with a small town jock boy like himself anyway?
Heath grew up privileged, accepted, and out. And the two hells he swore he would never put himself through—crushing on a straight guy and being anyone’s dirty little secret—have presented themselves in one sweet talkin’, dream hauntin’ package. One weekend with Wade, and Heath’s sure the devil himself has come a-knockin’.
Warning: Contains Southern accents wielded like weapons of desire, a snarky, do-gooder Pennsylvanian, and two boys deserving of true love.

Teaser

Wade Truman was untouched—the knowledge rushed Heath’s brain and dizzied him. His desire was a tangible thing that crawled and ached and keened. Mine, he thought. A fierce possessive streak staggered him. A snarky gay boy from Pittsburgh didn’t do caveman. He wanted to be done by caveman. But, Heath had never wanted anything more than Wade—his Southern gentleman fantasy come to life. “Mine,” he rasped as Wade’s flesh pebbled under hand. “Mine,” he growled.

“I’m surrounded by my family. I've been their protector, counselor, and leader. I was forced to be strong for them. But now, it’s my time to be strong for myself.” ~ Reggie Evans Five years later… The Evans family has experienced their share of heartache and trauma. Individually, each has faced the darkest days from their past to move forward with their lives. Today, they are stronger than ever. They have discovered the strength to move forward. Survive anything. Endure all. Each Evans brother has moved past the turmoil surrounding Presley’s death and Jeremy’s incarceration, finding the love of their life and living in happiness for the last five years. Together, they have grown, wounds have mended, and there is nothing standing in the way of their promising futures. That is, until a villain from years ago comes from the shadows, upsetting the family’s blissful existence. Once again, the family is divided, each brother forced to evaluate how crucial it is for them to stay together in Sulfur Heights or face the reality of leaving to survive on their own. Everlasting Love is ultimately what the Evans brothers have been searching for their entire lives, but will it be the path fate has planned? **Mature Content Warning: 17 years and older for language and sexual content.**  
Excerpt
My insides are boiling from my adrenaline-filled rage. I never suspected Jake really felt the way he does. Stabbing myself in the eye would feel ten times better than the pain of his words. I couldn’t believe he said that, yet I could. Jake has always been an asshole; however, this takes the cake. The moment he spoke his true inner feelings, all I saw was red. He doesn’t consider me his brother, only a stray Reggie saved. Reggie moves to my side and puts his hand on my forearm, squeezing hard enough for me to take notice. I glance up to his face, and it’s painfully obvious he was also hurt by Jake’s words. Reggie is probably internalizing it and blaming himself for this moment, but I think it’s good everything is out in the open. Jake is always quite candid when he’s drinking; I’m just surprised it took so long for the words to fall out of his mouth. However, I’m glad his true feelings are out. Now we can really move on from this night, and the night will be known as the one the Evans brothers became no more. Reggie clears his throat, as if he’s trying to swallow down the fury that’s settled inside his body. “Jake,” he says in a quiet, deep tone, “I think it’s time to leave.” “You’re kicking me out?” Jake is baffled. He tucks his flask back into his pocket before approaching Reggie. “Fine, I will leave. I always knew you were a pussy. You could never stand up to her… or him, for that matter.” Jake shoulders past Reggie, snags Delilah’s arm, and walks from the garage, shouting to her to get the kids as he moves to his car and sits in the passenger seat. I stand at the threshold of the door and look at my brother. I’m really not mad anymore. I feel sorry for him. He’s defaulting to truly harmful words to make the rest of us feel as bad as he does. In fact, he’s acting like a child. Jake’s always been dramatic, so I guess I should have expected nothing less. Yet what he said is unforgettable. I’m not sure how forgiving I can be after hearing what he said. The hateful words will always be in the back of my mind. Zoe and Delilah file down the back steps with all the kids in tow. Delilah quickly ushers them to the car and straps them in as Jake continues to stare me down, taking small sips from his flask. He doesn’t know it yet, but he’s about to lose everything he has unless he has a come-to-Jesus meeting with himself and changes how he treats Delilah. If she were smart, she wouldn’t stick around for the aftermath of this night. Jake is bound to be intolerable. Delilah falls into the driver’s seat and backs away from the house as we all stand in the driveway, watching them drive off. I know Reggie feels like he’s watching his family leave for the last time. ~Drake Evans

Synopsis

They had it all. There wasn't anything they could do to make their lives better. Their relationship was thriving. Their daughter was perfect. The adoration they had for one another was indescribable. They were surrounded by family and friends who loved them unconditionally.

There wasn't a time Brax and Jazz lived with any regret, until Jazz started digging into her past. And now the happy life they once shared, has crumbled before their eyes, forcing their family through a whirlwind of emotions and pain.

What do you do if your marriage gets hit with the one thing you’d never expect? Can you stand the test of time and move forward as one? Or would you throw away everything you've spent years building, because it’s the moral thing to do?

Relationships are handed different obstacles to face, but in this case, two people are left pondering what society says is correct.


If you love someone with your whole heart, more than anything in the world, they become worth the fight. 


They are lost until you.


***Contains sexual content and strong language. Mature readers age 18+***

Review by Wendy Book Obsessed Pimpette

* * * obsessed by books arc given for an honest review * * *


I wasn't so sure about this book due to some of the other reviews, I didn't know if it was for me. I'm so glad I stuck with it.

Brax and Jazz have a love that people dream of.

Brax fell the first time he seen Jazz on her graduation night, he knew he had to have her a week later he takes a chance they go out fall in love, get married, have a child they live the American dream or do they.

Jazz grew up in multiple foster homes, not really having stability. She gets asked out by Brax and their lives start. Jazz has never had the feeling of family, but she gets that with Braxs family, a since of love and stability.
Jazz wants to search for real parents or at least find out about them, thinking it will bring closer to a part of her life that still feels empty., she just never expected what she got.
This book was awesome. Brax is your sexy, alpha man all the way. The way he loves Jazz and supports her is just breath taking. I'm probably the biggest smushy smut loving reader there is, and it was refreshing to read a book that didn't start out with two people who felt like the didn't deserve each other and just date and pussy foot around, don't get me wrong those are my favorites, but it was nice to start off with a MARRIED couple and see the ups and downs they go through. This book was awesome. Definitely a 5 star.


Review by Julie Sweetheart Obsessive Pimpette


Very sweet love story about Brax and Jazz. They have a beautiful life and family. This book will make you laugh, cry ,and then ask what the crap. The twist and turns are glorious. I would recommend this read. No spoilers here. Excellent Book

Adult Contemporary Romance

Amazon | Barnes and Noble | iTunes

He talks dirty to me, but I don’t know his name.

He wants to tie me up, but I don’t know his face.

He turns me on, but I couldn’t point him out in a crowd.

I’ve fallen for an anonymous stranger, and tonight the anonymity ends. Tonight I want more than typed secrets and texted promises. I want something reckless. Heat. Passion. The thrill of being entirely possessed.

Because I suspect this anonymous stranger isn’t a stranger at all.

Lizzy Thompson met riverrat69 online through Something Real, a service promising to deliver meaningful relationships by forbidding its users to share names or photos until they’ve reached a certain benchmark. She was looking for love. He was researching an investment. They hit it off. Talked and flirted, hid behind screen names and cartoon avatars.

Now they’re breaking the rules and meeting in person. But Liz is prepared. She’s picked up hints and followed clues.

She’s ninety-percent convinced she’s discovered the identity of her dirty-talking online friend.

She wonders if her ex-lover Sam Bradshaw knows her identity too.

When she rolls the dice on one reckless night, her chance at something real could crumble.




Review by Mazzy Boss Lady

Read in December, 2014

**** I received an arc in exchange for an honest review ****

This book is about two people that always have something that comes between them, stopping them being together. A book full of twists and turns you will be taken on a rollercoaster of complications.

A warning though there is a cliffhanger, and you will be wanting the next book asap, as it is one hell of a cliffhanger.

Lexi has produced an enjoyable read and I recommend reading this book.

Excerpt from Something Reckless

“You look amazing in this dress. I’ve been pretending all night that there’s something I want to do more than get you out of it.”

“What would you do with me if you got so lucky?”

“I’d keep you up all night, for starters.” He slides a hand into my hair and traces the side of my neck with his thumb. His groan rumbles through me. “Tell me what you came here for.”

I thought that was pretty clear. “I’m wearing extremely slutty underwear. What do you think?”

His nostrils flare and his breathing goes thready. “I think I’m going to have to up my game, because now I want to see it.”

I have to bite back a smile. “Good,” I say. My heart thumps out a beat, probably Morse code for please and thank you.

“How slutty is this underwear of yours?”

I lick my lips. “Oh, it’s damn near whorish.”

“Let me see it, Liz.”

I lift my chin and prop my hands on my hips. “Seriously? That’s all the seduction I get? Let me see it?”

He steps closer until I have to crane my neck to look at him, and holy hell he smells good. “What game are we playing here, Rowdy?” he murmurs against my ear. “Is this the one where we pretend we don’t want each other and sleep alone . . .” His fingers skim down my shoulder and my eyes float closed. “Or is it the one where I make you come so hard you scream my name and tomorrow you act like you want nothing to do with me?”

“Are those my only choices?” I ask, but I keep my eyes closed, focusing on the feel of his rough fingers dancing across my skin. The truth is, I don’t want to play either game. I’m done playing games when it comes to Sam. I’m done pretending I don’t want him when I do, and I’m done pretending our annual one-night stand is enough for me.

“Tell me you aren’t going to run away in the morning. Promise me you won’t shut me out again.”

I don’t know what that means, and I’m too scared to analyze it. My eyes are still closed when he takes my chin in his fingers and tilts my face up to his, still closed when he brushes his lips over mine and when I open under him because I’m helpless to this man’s kiss.

“Promise me,” he repeats.

“I won’t run away.” Then I unzip my dress and let it fall to the floor in a puddle, and my boldness is rewarded. Sam’s lips part and his breath escapes him in a rush.

He steps back and takes me in. The bra is strapless, black lace demi-cups that lift my breasts until they threaten to spill out. The panties—what there is of them—are a thong in matching black lace. Their fine lace straps sit in a sharp V high on my hipbones.

A ringlet of hair escaped my up-do, and he takes it between his fingers and twirls it around. I deserve a medal for not melting right here at his feet.

He hooks his index finger under the black bow between my bra cups. “Did you wear this for me?” His voice is a husky whisper that I can’t deny.

“Yes.”

His fingers skim my belly, trace over my hip, following the lace of my thong behind me to where the straps meet at the small of my back. My breath catches as he takes the fabric path over the curve of my tailbone and down, his fingers bringing every nerve ending to life as they pass. Electric pleasure whips through me.

“Fourteen months since I’ve touched you,” he says. “Fourteen months since I’ve gotten to hear the way you breathe when you’re turned on, since I’ve gotten to listen to you scream as I make you come. Tell me you haven’t thought about it.”

“I’d be lying.”

“Don’t lie,” he says, eyes hot and intense. “Just tell me you want me.”

FREE introductory novella to the SOMETHING RECKLESS



  
“You need a good guy. A long-term guy. One who does dates and romance and emotional strings…I’m just an asshole who wants to tie you up, make you come, and walk away.”

Samuel Bradshaw is a man with a reputation—the kind of reputation that should have me running the other way. Instead, it has me searching for the shortest distance to his bed. I won’t be the starry-eyed girl who thinks she can change a man like Sam, and despite what he thinks, forever is not what I need. I need the things he makes me feel, the way he turns me on, and the promise of pleasure in his eyes. This promises to be SOMETHING WILD.

This isn’t just a two-year long one-night stand. It’s my life. This is my life. Our life. It isn’t just some careless affair. I’ve made the worst decisions a woman could, but I’ll earn my second chance. She can try keeping all the guilt for herself, but I’m just as much to blame. Loving Casey wasn’t my biggest mistake.

Review by Emma Mistress of all Dark & Twisted

Book 4 in the Severed MC series by Ava Manello and K T Fisher sees the troubled but ever loyal biker Ash aka Cowboy take to the fore.
He's carrying the inner turmoil of feeling to blame for more than his fair share of pain and loss from previous MC troubles, personal agendas and family tragedies. He's a man who places high values on friendship, protection and loyalty. So his inability to protect and save his loved ones in times of need plays heavily on his mind.

Cowboy has distanced himself from his Severed family recently but Emma and her close friend Lucy cut through that cold exterior.
Lucy is fiercely independent, fun and well liked by all the bikers and old ladies. She gets a new bar job at the newly refurbished Severed local bar which is now owned by Declan Donnelly, a man who Severed are keen to know more about in light of recent violence and events facing the club from an unknown threat. This threat escalates to new heights and it's something that "whatever course of action we choose to follow now will result in deaths. It's inevitable..."

Can Cowboy give himself a chance to care for someone again or will it all end in pain and loss again as club life in Severed has never been more chaotic for this set of bikers.

This is another stella MC book by Ava and K T, they manage to focus on a new couple as well as include a brilliant twisting plot that involves all of the well loved Severed and Carnal favourites. Will this threat cause any more losses to the Bikers of Australia? Will Cowboy get his HEA? And what is the reason that the Severed MC is being targeted? Read this to discover all the answers and you won't regret it!!

*** I was a beta reader for this book ***


Review by Nadia Chief Obsessive Pimpette

"Fate has decided. She's not done with me yet."

Cowboy is broken, his soul is weary and his burden is already too heavy to bare any more tradegy or loss. He can no longer see his self worth and with Emma serving her justice in the previous novel he feels he had outlived his usefulness.

Lucy is the pivotal person that has the power to break through his despair and open his eyes to how valued he is by his brothers. Cowboy has been appointed her look out by Emma before she left, but he soon realises that his feeling run deeper than just a platonic guardian figure. She fits. She makes him dream of something more.

They battle through the common issues faced by being friends to lovers, he has some real cave man tendencies! Lucy is a sass filled, independent lady that has her own inner strength. She is the perfect partner for Ash as she calms the storm in his heart.

But no love story is ever easy in Severed. The MC has a worrying development - some one has moved in to the area and has started selling drugs, causing people to OD. Declan Donnelly has also recently arrived, looking to bury his past in Severed. He is the new bar owner and lucky Lucy manages to find herself a job there. He is more than meets the eye and he soon embeds himself with our favourite bikers. I hope we see more of him soon.

Carnal and Severed work together as an unknown element plots against them and Death has not yet left them alone. Things get heated and very very bloody...cue the box of tissues! You have been warned. This novel has the right blend of action, drama, tradegy and hope. It's a beautiful blend of emotions and the connection to the characters is a powerful thing. The ending...wow! No spoilers so that really is all I'm saying. I need the next one...now now now, what more has Fate got in store for our MC?

Four and a half scorchling hot stars.
 

Review by Julie Sweetheart Obsessive Pimpette


I absolutely loved the Severed MC series. Each book has been a blast read. This one was actually my favorite. Cowboy and Lucy are my favorite couple. Cowboy has to let go of his demons and finally learned to open up to love. I love their characters and the entire story line. This MC keeps their town clean and their woman happy

I love erotic suspense that's well written and engages the reader, and I love promoting the heck out of it over on my book blog.
