~*~Obsessed by books arc given in exchange for an honest review~*~

"Eden has given up so much. It can't end like this for her, for any of us. We have been through hell and back. We will get out of this; I just wish I knew how."

The final perspective in the Angel MC series we relive the chain of events from Hilary's POV as she tells her side to this heart breaking gut wrenchingcrollercoaster ride of teenage love, high school romance and adult tragedy. Six individuals brought together as friends, bonded through experience and hurt, strengthened in love and pain are finally ready to face their pasts and deal with their ghosts.

Mason and Hilary fall in love as children, marry young and doubts force them apart as they take a wrong turn in their relationship. Personal loss causes a rift and Mason dives in to club life quickly earning his club name of Reaper. Hilary wants to persue her career working long hours to qualify as a lawyer and Mason finds himself immersed in the darker side of the MC. Secrets and poor judgements lead to ten years apart, during which neither of them can move on, constantly haunted by the should haves/would haves.

The actions of all three couples are viewed through Hilary's eyes and we gain a better understanding of the impact of choices, decisions, secrets and promises kept. The bonds of friendship are tested to their limits pushing the boundaries of love to the edge of endurance. This is the gripping finale of the servicees. Will Hilary and Reaper overcome their trust issues, can they forgive the secrets of the past? Can they accept the people they have become and learn to love one another for who they now are? Can Angel move past the years of hurt and accept Edens reasoning, understand her motives and see through the loss to embrace the love of his life? Will Lilly and Zippo ever manage to deal with the living proof of his double life, a lasting reminder of his infidelity?

Not everyone is who they appear to be and as we found out in book two there is a hidden agenda for some. Can our favourite members of Angel MC figure things out in time to save the day and get their girl? The plot thickens and the thirst for power and revenge is unquenchable, pushing people to extreme measures. This book had big fat ugly tears roll down my cheeks, the writing was emotive and tender. It touches that what if? nerve and makes us realise that it's never too late and to live each day as if it's your last. The truth may have set them all free but hindsight is a wonderful thing. Can our sassy strong ladies get their guys? Can our alpha males see past their hurts to embrace and win back the women they love? This is a story of love, friendship and forgiveness.

A five star cry ugly read.

Title: Wicked Indulgence

Author: Missy Johnson

 Release Date: July 6, 2015

Blurb

I’m the bad boy of rock.

I play hard and party harder, my life is every dude’s dream. Women throwing themselves at me, more money than I know what to do with and I get to do what I love.

Perform.

I thought things couldn’t get any better.

I was right.

I’m no stranger to controversy, a side effect of doing whatever the fuck I like, but maybe I’ve taken things too far this time.

Being constantly in the spotlight is hard, especially when you’re on a downhill spiral and the only place left is rock bottom.

The question is, how the fuck am I going to get myself out of this one?

Excerpt:

. “I am really not feeling well, I think I am going to go back to the hotel.” I practically cry to Angie, Kim and Kiersten as we walk up to the convention center. I don’t think I can handle actually seeing him again and if I would have known before this morning that he was going to be doing his first ever book signing here, in New Orleans I would never have agreed to come. My best friends brought me here to help me get over the asshole that broke my heart, little do they know, they are going to bring me face to face with him.

“You are not, this is the whole reason we came here. Suck it up buttercup, you’re staying,” Angie says cheerfully. I want to punch her but she is so proud of herself for coming up with this idea. I feel my stomach roll with every step closer to the front doors. I’m going to vomit all over him and then laugh, it would serve him right.

“Angie please just let me go back to the hotel,” I whine. “Starr seriously? No, you will be fine it’s just your nerves. He is just a human like the rest of us. You will be fine. Besides isn’t Silas like your idol?” I shake my head and march past her to open the front door, but it is pushed out at the same time I reach for the handle and those blue eyes capture me and I watch as the beautiful smile melts off his face. It stings.

“Starr,” he gasps.

“Silas,” I reply with a curt nod. Then I see her. She is even more beautiful in person. Her normally long blonde hair is swept up into a messy side chignon. Little wisps of hair fall down around her ears and over onto her perfect face. Her face turns from his with a smile. She holds her hand out to me and I have the urge to snap her arm in half.

“Starr, I have heard so much about you. It’s so nice to finally meet you,” she says with so much sweetness in her voice it gives me a tooth ache. I look down at her hand, then back to her flawless face. I can’t help but flick my eyes toward Silas.

“I wish I could say the same, on both,” I sneer then maneuver myself around them and through the doors. I can’t stand in front of him for one more second without telling him exactly what a fucking scumbag I think he is. I barely make it to the line up to enter the signing room when I hear my name being called. I know that voice, I know what is sounds like when it’s happy, sad, tired. I know what it sounds like as it calls my name while he comes.

“Starr would you wait just one second? Kendra, go ahead in, I’ll be there in a second.” He kisses her forehead as she smiles and hurries inside. I glance back at Kim, Angie, and Kiersten. They are both standing beside me with their mouths practically open. “You three go ahead, I’ll make sure she comes and finds you. I promise.” Then he winks and they all giggle.

Fucking trader ass bitches.

Once they disappear through the door, he grabs my arm and leads me down a small hallway. He takes a right and opens a door and steps through and holds it for me to follow. I reluctantly do.

“Starr, what are you doing here?”

“Seriously Silas, seriously? That is what you think you have the right to ask me? It’s been five months Silas, Five months since I have heard a single word from you. Then come to find out after everything. All the speeches about being honest, you are fucking married. You’re a fucking pig and I can’t even stand the sight of you. You make me sick, thinking about what I helped you do to that poor woman out there. You should be ashamed of yourself. I hate you Silas.” The words fly out of my mouth so fast I barely have time to realize what I am even saying. I open my mouth to say more but he takes a few steps towards me and we are so close now I can smell his aftershave. It does things to my insides and my pussy clinches at the memory of him between my thighs.

“You might be pissed but you don’t hate me Starr, You still want me and I can smell you from here.” He whispers as he leans down and captures my mouth with his. I sigh and lean into his body and drape my arms across his shoulders. His kiss is deep, powerful, all consuming. His lips bruise mine as we both fight for control. So much emotion is poured into our movements and when his hands slip down to my thighs, he lifts my legs and they wrap around his waist as he crashes us into the wall. He is ripping and pulling at my shirt with so much need I feel as if I am the only thing that can keep him alive and he will cease to exist if I don’t give into him. I need to stop this, he is married, but I want it, I can’t stop it.

Forgiveness & Power in the Wrong Hands

Excerpt

Hunter Hunter walked back to the glamour opening at the bottom of the Sphinx. Mystic, the leader of the Meat Eaters, waited for everyone’s report from the war as they exited. As he waited in line for his turn, Hunter heard someone yelling his name. “Hunter, wait for me, I need to talk to you.” It was Saturesa, Sat for short, Hunter’s longtime friend. As Sat caught up with Hunter, he could hear the enthusiasm in Sat’s voice which meant trouble. Sat always had some hair brained scheme for picking up girls. “Hey, after you talk to Mystic, what do you say to coming to the Eastern Shore with me?” Hunter, not feeling very social these days, told Sat, “No, I’m headed home, but thanks for the invite.” Sat, never being one to take no for an answer, told him, “Come on, Hunter. Everyone’s going to the Eastern Shore for a weeklong celebration, and there is going to be lots of girls.” Hunter gave Sat half a smile and looked down, shaking his head as he moved up one in line. Hunter knew that once Sat set his mind to something, he would be relentless at getting what he wanted. Hunter rolled his eyes and huffed his retort with a slight rumble in his voice, “Fine, but if I don’t have a GREAT time, I’ll leave. Got it?” Sat rubbed his hands together in anticipation of some fun, and in his cheery voice responded, “Fine! But you’ll have a blast, I promise.” Hunter figured the only reason Sat wanted to go was the neighbor girl named Snowdrop. Hunter had never been attracted to a female Techie. He didn’t know if it was all the hair or the fact that the females were dominant, and he preferred to be the leader in a relationship. Hunter did agree that for a Techie she looked striking. Even though he had never met her in person, he had noticed her from a distance. She didn’t have that same thick hair as the other Techies and seemed to have more of her herb growing everywhere. She was also short for a female Techie. He had not been close enough to know what color her eyes were, but Sat could not stop talking about her amazing hazel eyes. Sat would joke about how he should have been nicer to Snowdrop when she had a crush on him. Hunter handed Mystic his one page report. “Hi Mystic, my report is short because Adam’s children did all the work. It’s always amazing to watch them in action. Is it okay to head home now?” Mystic looked up at him from her seat. “Hunter, how is life?” Hunter should have figured she would sense his loneliness. His kind lived so long, and without someone to share it with, the days and nights could go forever. Depression was a serious threat, but Hunter hated sympathy, so he denied it. “I’m fine.” Mystic regarded him with concern and shook her head in disbelieve. She didn’t believe for one minute that he was truly fine, but told him, “If you need anything, let me know.” Hunter winked at Mystic, hoping to lessen her worry. “Thanks. Catch you at the next war.” Mystic gave him a small but sweet smile as she turned her focus on the next Meat Eater in line. Mystic Jones, as the leader of the Meat Eater species, is responsible for each and everyone one of them. She made a mental note to check up on Hunter in a few weeks. That wink he gave her was not fooling her. Sensing a strong feeling of depression, she wasn’t going to let that go for long. As Hunter walked out of the Sphinx, he watched as Sat jumped up the minute he spotted him. Hunter felt like this was going to be a long week, and he wasn’t sure he could put up with Sat’s high level of energy. Then he heard Sat say, “Come on, we can get a ride on the war ships with the Plazies. Sap said he could drop us on the Eastern Shore.” Hunter smiled. “I have not seen Sap or Weeping in a few hundred years.” As they walked toward the war ships, Hunter thought about the Plazies. Sap and his wife, Weeping, are the leaders of the most unusual species, as far as Hunter was concerned. Hunter had heard that they now had a teenage daughter named Willow—he had also heard Willow was a handful. He could remember the first day he met the Plazies during one of the many wars in his lifetime. While walking next to Sat, Hunter gazed off in the distance as he remembered that day. He had walked onto one of the war ships to find no one on board, yet the ship was in operation with the precision of a well-organized team. He looked around, but stopped when he noticed a line of little sticks appearing before him, Plazies lined up on the ropes and rails. One of them started to talk, “Welcome Orion Hunter.” Hunter remembered his feeling of shock. Although he didn’t know what part shocked him more: the stick knowing his full name or that a stick was actually speaking. He had found himself staring at thousands of sticks shaped like humans. They ranged from 5-inches to 6-inches tall and looked like all different types of wood. As a woodworker in his youth and a construction company owner in today’s world, Hunter knew his timber. Hunter figured the look of shock showed on his face when Sap laughed and explained, “We are magic wood splinters and are what keep the old warships afloat. We are, for the most part, harmless, but we are not without ways to protect ourselves. Moving fast, it looks like we just appear and disappear, and this speed allows us to operate different areas of the ship quickly. We come from all different woods, hence the reason we all look different.” Being brought out of his thoughts by Sat’s voice, Hunter heard, “Hunter, they’re waiting for us. Let’s go.” Hunter felt the muscle in his shoulders tighten at Sat’s enthusiastic tone. He really was not in a party mood, and until now didn’t realize he had lagged behind. As they boarded the warships, Hunter saw Sap and walked up to him to say hi when he noticed something was wrong. “Sap, what has happened? Is everyone okay?” Sap turned and smiled, greeting his friend. “Hello Hunter. It’s been a long time, and yes, things will be fine.” Hunter curious asked, “Then why are the three of you so anxious?” Sap introduced his daughter. “Hunter, this is Willow, my daughter, and she faces a task that has her worried.” Hunter put his pinkie finger down to shake hands and told Willow, “Willow, if I can help, you need only ask.” Willow looked worried as she said, “Not unless you can undo my teenage misbehaving and what I thought to be harmless pranks.” Hunter looked at her with concern. “I hear an apology is owed. Am I correct?” Willow, in tears now, turned as she noticed the warships headed out of the delta and to the open seas. “Hunter, it is more than just an apology. I was awful to Creature, and I thought they were just harmless jokes … but a good man may die because of me.” Hunter thought a minute. “Wait, could you be talking about Creature Notte?” Willow looked up with a bit of hope that maybe he could help. “Yes, do you know her?” Hunter smiled. “As a matter of fact, I have worked with Creature off and on for a few hundred years. If there is one thing she is, it’s understanding. I think if you just come clean and be sincere, she will see her way to forgive you. Now, what is this about a man dying?” Willow, still not fully convinced everything would be okay, sniffled, “That is the whole problem, I have to take Creature on a quest to become one with Deciding Island, and if I fail and she does not go … then Mica Sands will die.” Hunter asked, “Mica Sands. He’s an Infin right? But what does he have to do with Creature?” Willow was still crying, and trying to talk. “They are in love. They are mates, and now they could lose each other because of me.” Hunter looked over at Sap for more clarity. Sap explained, “Mica was horribly wounded, and if Creature does not become one with Deciding Island, he will die. The only way to save him is if the Island does it … and because of Willow’s behavior, Gaia the Island’s spirit has said that is it up to Willow to take Creature on this quest into the Black Heart forest.” Willow cried out, “She is punishing me.” Sap walked over and put his arm around his daughter. “She is not punishing you; she is teaching you. Now go with your mother.” Hunter, Sat, and Sap watched as the two disappeared, then Sap spoke, “It is nice to see you again, but I must get to my post. We will be dropping the two of you off at Eastern Shore. If I don’t see you before you leave, goodbye.” Hunter gave his best smile, hoping to cheer Sap a little. He could see the worry on Sap’s face. “Goodbye, Sap. See you at the next war.” The rest of the trip Sat and Hunter watched the ocean go by, and, from time to time, would notice dolphins and whales playing in the ship’s wake. After reaching land at Eastern Shore, Hunter and Sat turned to wave at the Plazies. Hunter watched the old warship head back out to sea. It was so surreal in its beauty, yet it demanded the respect of an ancient warrior. Sat looked over at Hunter. “Hey, what is up with you lately? You’re always dazing off ... Oh no … you’re not getting depressed are you?” Sat was now worried about his friend. Hunter looked at Sat and thought, Great, now I have to put up with his enthusiasm and pity, what a week this is going to be. Hunter thought about it and decided that maybe he was a little more depressed than he was letting himself realize. “Hunter, look at me and tell me that you’re not getting depressed.” Hunter looked at his friend. “I wish I could, but I’m thinking that maybe I am getting just a little depressed. After all, how long can a man go without the love of a mate? And how old am I?” They didn’t really keep a close watch on time; the question was purely hypothetical. Hunter was not waiting for an answer, just making a point. Sat knew Hunter was older than he was. Sat had been around for four hundred plus years. Sat slapped Hunter on the shoulder reassuring him, “That will be our goal then, to find you a mate, and soon.” Hunter just smiled and kept walking.

Excerpt

The smell of bacon and coffee wakes me from the best night of sleep I’ve ever had. Muscles I didn’t even know existed are screaming their protest as I stretch against the cool sheets. The other side of the mattress where Nate slept mere hours ago is vacant, but the smells coming from the kitchen tell me he isn’t too far away. My mind fills with memories of Nate waking me up in the very early morning. He was gentle as he worshiped my body, bringing me to orgasm no less than twice that time, too. My body is singing as I climb out of bed and reach for a shirt. Nate’s shirt from last night is thrown on the end of the bed along with all of the clothes we were both wearing yesterday, so I slide the big shirt over my head and walk into the hall to the bathroom. The shirt still smells deliciously like Nate. It’s all musky and rich with just a hint of sweat. I can’t help but run my nose along the cotton material as I inhale deeply yet again. After using the bathroom and brushing my teeth, I head out to the kitchen to see what kind of deliciousness Nate has cooked up. My stomach growls loudly as I turn the corner and stop dead in my tracks. The sight before me is so damn sexy that I can’t even laugh at how comical it is. Nate stands at my stove, frying bacon, and wearing nothing but my white apron. And I mean nothing but my apron. The ties are wrapped around his lean waist and tied around his amazing lower back. Muscles move and strain as he works the tongs, flipping the bacon. Nate’s back is a-freaking-mazing! There is no other word to describe it. I’ve never seen anything like it before in my life. I had no clue that definition and muscles like that existed. The tribal designed tattoo spread across his shoulder blades is dark with hard lines and looks so astounding stretched across his taut muscles. But the muscles of his ass are what hold my attention right now. I wish I had a quarter because I’m pretty sure I could bounce it off his rear and get some serious air. Below his butt are the most well-defined, muscled thighs and calves I’ve ever seen. They scream power as he stands there in front of my stove. I will never be able to wear that apron again. The mental image I will carry with me for the rest of my life of Nate wearing it this morning is something I will never, ever forget. It’ll be one of the happiest memories I will cherish as I continue to move from place to place, searching for the life I know is out there. One that makes me feel safe and sound. One that is so very close to how I feel with Nate. He moves towards the skillet, grabs the spatula, and flips what appears to be French toast. I have died and gone to heaven. I don’t know when it happened, but there is no way this is actually happening in real life. “Hey,” he says with a huge grin and sparkling eyes, breaking me from the trance of my private thoughts. “Huh?” I ask, wondering how long he’s been talking to me and I’ve been staring at his bare ass. “Enjoying the view?” he asks with another hint of laughter. “I never thought my apron would look so good,” I reply with pinked cheeks. “Well, bacon grease isn’t something you want splattering in this region,” he says waving a hand at his white apron covered package. A package that is thickening and saluting me before my lust-filled eyes. “Breakfast first, beautiful,” Nate says with a smirk, drawing my gaze back up to his handsome face. “Are you sure?” I ask, walking towards him and stopping right in front of him. I run my hands up his bare chest and along his well-defined shoulders. Nate clears his throat before replying, “Yes. You need food.” He leans forward and kisses me square on the lips. “And energy for what’s going to happen as soon as I take my shirt back,” he says with a wink.

Release Blitz: Dash (The Novel) by Shantel Tessier @shantel_tessier

Title: Dash (The Novel)

Author: Shantel Tessier

Genre: Sports Romance

Release Date: June 30, 2015

I’ve never been one to follow the rules…or the law, for that matter. But when you find yourself behind bars and being offered the opportunity of a lifetime, you take it. I agreed to race motorcycles for Johnny Knight. A very powerful man who wanted me on his team, even knowing I was a liability. But will he still feel that way once he finds out that I had a one-night stand with his daughter? I didn’t mean for it to happen. I didn’t even know who she was until she walked into his office wearing my shirt from the night before. Too bad that was all she wanted—one night. It didn’t really matter who she was, I wanted more. So when she ran, I followed. I should have let her go. That would have been best for both of us. But I have never done what was right, so why start now? I’ve always been willing to take a risk, no matter what it would cost me. And I knew she was worth it all.

I’m Erik Dashling; you can call me Dash. This is my story of how I willingly risked one dream for another. But everyone knows that not all dreams come true.

"There are some particularly difficult scenes in this book, all I can say is that they were superbly written, poetic even, Shantel outdone herself in the delivery of the climax to the story, shell shocked would be how I felt..." ~ Book Hooked Brit

“Be prepared to fall in love with Dash, to melt when he brings out his cocky smirks and his sexy promises.” ~ Rosarita Reader (iScream Books)

"Such an emotionally heart stopping book. Loved it!" ~ The Smutbrarians

His face starts to harden, and his gray eyes narrow as they search my face. He looks at me as if he just realizes what my night has consisted of. A physical fight with Rodger. Whereas, I’m sure he got drunk and laid.

I actually throw my head back and laugh out loud. I laugh so hard my body shakes, and it feels good. I lift my head and look up at him as he stares at me with those beautiful gray eyes. They look hard as I watch his eyes follow the line of the stitches that are on my face once again.

I throw my hand up as I continue to laugh. He frowns when I snort, and it makes me laugh even harder. “Sorry…” I try to calm my laughter; it makes my aching body hurt, but it feels so good to laugh. “But this is just too funny.”

“Your ex-boyfriend beating the shit out of you is funny?” he questions. “I don’t see how that can be funny.”

My laughter dies immediately. Instead of standing, I lean back against the bench and cross one leg over the other. His eyes quickly scan my bare legs, and I feel my body heat start to rise. No! Don’t go there, Tabatha. You regret ever sleeping with him, remember? “No, the fact that you keep showing up is what I think is funny. The fact that you think I wanna talk to you is funny.” Oh, good one. Make him buy it.

“You wanna talk about funny?” he asks raising his voice. “I have woken up to you running away. Not only once, but twice. What the hell is your problem?” I take a deep breath that makes my chest rise. Is he really gonna do this? “And why was Rodger there after I happen to leave?” Oh, he’s going all the way. “Huh? Did you call him to tell him how bad I hurt you?” My mouth drops open. “Did you ask him to come over and kiss your wounds?” he shouts.

I stand and shove my hands into his chest pushing him backward. “Don’t you dare accuse me of something you know nothing about,” I shout back. “You were the one who had just been drunk and with your ex moments before. And you kissed her.” I do air quotes around kissed. “Who knows what else you did with her.”

“I was just doing what your father told me to do. Get information,” he says matter-of-fact with a wave of his hand.

“Oh? And he told you to stick your tongue down her throat?” I demand.

“No. His exact words were to do whatever I had to do in order to get the information that we needed.”

“Lies.” I spin around giving him back for a second before I turn back to face him with my hands clenched down at my sides. “All you do is lie,” I yell.

“And all you do is run away,” he sneers in my face. “Not all of us are as heartless as you and can just turn our backs on others at any given moment.”

 I feel the tears start to sting my eyes, and I blink them away. He truly hates me now, but this is not the time to fall apart. After everything I’ve been through tonight, I can keep it together for just a little longer. I swallow the knot in my throat and lick my dry lips. “Well, you made it pretty damn easy,” I lie. He hasn’t made anything about us easy. It’s so damn hard to stand here and be a bitch to him. My legs are tired, and I would give anything for him to pick me up and hold me in his arms. But that ship has sailed. “But I sure as hell can’t stand the fact that you keep coming around.” Stay strong, Tabatha. Don’t apologize; you can’t take those words back now no matter how big of a lie it was.

I expect him to yell in my face for what I said. For him to shoot the hurtful words right back. But instead, his hard eyes look me up and down, and he snorts as he shakes his head. That hurts worse than any words could. He looked at me as if I was nothing.

He runs his hand through his shaggy brown hair and speaks. “Well, I’ll make something else easier for you. I quit.”
