Review: Unforgivable Sin (Escort, #2) by Isabel Lucero

Synopsis 

In book two of The Escort Series, Troy Thompson and Emilie Watson are finally admitting their feelings and thinking about giving a relationship a try.

What happens, though, when being an escort in Sin City isn’t the only problem to worry about when starting a new relationship?

Someone from Troy’s past is back. Carla was the love of his life, his ex-fiancé, and the woman who committed what most consider an unforgivable sin. A sin that forced him to believe he’d never love or trust another woman again.

With Carla doing her best to convince Troy that she’s changed, and showing up to his house with talks of friendship, Emilie is left to wonder if her and Troy’s connection is strong enough to withstand the return of his past.

Is Carla truly back to heal old wounds, and get closure on their relationship? Or is she back to do whatever’s necessary to be the only woman in Troy’s life?

Review

This is Troy and Emilie's story and it's an interesting story indeed.  Troy has trust issues which he developed after his previous engagement went sour. Troy decides to commit to a relationship with Emilie by quitting his job as an escort.  Unfortunately, Carla (Troy's ex fiancee) returns after 5 years to try and win back Troy.  It turns out Carla is nuts!!!  She lies about her parents in order to sneak her way back into Troy's life. Carla befriends Emilie, STALKER!! The story takes a scary turn and reveals how much Troy cares for Emilie.  There's twists and turns, hot scenes, hot tempers and lots of emotions.

Quote

"Thank you for being stupid enough to chat on a wonderful man and putting him back on the market for me to find." Emilie smiles at Carla. "Because of our unfaithfulness, Troy will now be able to experience what a real relationship is like; a relationship that doesn't revolve around only one person,  A relationship that doesn't consist of lies and dishonesty, but instead built on friendship.  He'll know what it feels like to be loved unconditionally."

There are a lot of things in this world that are easy to escape from. Having a son you didn't ask for isn't one of them.

Mack is a nomad. He likes his own space and he struggles with emotion. His past is grey and his future looks about the same. That is until his ex-girlfriend dies and his son is handed over to him. A two month old baby he didn't know existed. Until now. 

His world comes crashing down around him. 

Desperate, he hires a nanny. 

Jaylah has gotten herself into some serious trouble, so when she sees the job opening for a nanny pop up, she jumps on it. Of course she's not a nanny, but she figures she can pull it off. I mean, how hard can it be? 

She's thrown into a world of diapers, hourly feedings and a whole lot of laundry. She's also introduced to the most rugged, gorgeous man she's ever had the pleasure of meeting. 

The best part, he's the baby's father. 

The worst part, he's a biker. 

Their sexual tension is huge, but he's a hard nut to crack. She'll get in, though. She makes it her mission to break through the wall Mack has built so high around himself.  Her world is about to spiral out of control, and she's taking Mack along for the ride.

Review

 

We pick up with Mack selecting a nanny to care for his son Diesel full time, 24/7. Jaylah needs to escape because she owes money to a drug dealer and finds a job as a nanny to a child of  Jokers' Wrath biker. 

Mack is closed off. He isn't ready to be a father, especially not to son from a woman he once loved and lost. Jaylah has no experience as a nanny but learns fast. Mack soon finds out Jaylah's issues with the drug dealer and helps pay her debt.  However there was a complication, Jaylah's ex-boyfriend, the reason she owed the money returns.  Jaylah helps Mack slowly develop a relationship with his son. Jaylah is threatened by Mack's younger brother, who wants revenge against Mack. There's kidnapping, murder and finally closure.

I can't put Bella Jewels books down. This is another great MC book. I love the characters and the story lines.

Review: Living in Sin (The Escort Series Book1) by Isabel Lucero

Jace Jamison is every woman’s fantasy. He’s a mysterious businessman willing to sweep you off your feet, a tattooed bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks, and a sexy friend you want to take that next step with. Jace is everything and anything you want him to be. He’s a highly paid escort.

But nobody knows who Jace really is; the man whose dad abandoned him, whose brother was killed, and who had to take care of his mom at a young age. At the age of nineteen, he was living in Sin City, ready for a life away from stress and struggle.

Adrienne has been having a sexual drought since she broke up with her boyfriend. Even then she wasn’t getting fully satisfied. Being an event planner, she’s constantly working at numerous events. Several times she’s seen a man she can only refer to as the God-like creature at her work functions. He’s devastatingly handsome, tall, and has beautiful eyes, but he’s always with a different woman. The last thing she needs is another player in her life.

After a few chance encounters with Jace, her best friend convinces her to just get some good sex out of him and not worry about who she’s seen him with. But what happens when she finds out that he isn’t dating these women because he wants to, but because he’s paid to?

Keeping his job a secret from Adrienne seems easy at first, but when she begins meeting people he knows in his escort life, and they begin getting closer, he knows he has to tell her before someone else does.

When their worlds entwine, and confessions are made, will they be able to work through it? Will she be able to push aside his sins and focus on the good in him? Will Jace get what he’s never had? A woman who wants him despite what he’s done. Or will living in sin cost him what he never knew he wanted. 

Review 

 

Living in Sin starts off with a bang. Or I should say a banging good time. We first meet Jace Jamison as he's doing his job. Oh what a job he has. Jace had been thinking about leaving his current employment because he was starting up a new business with his coworkers. After meeting Adrienne he leaves his old employer and begins to think about his future with her.  At first Adrienne believes Jace is a player or aka The King. 

                                             

She soon decides to give Jace a chance. The only question remaining is if Adrienne will accept his past.  This story is a sweet read, even with the banging good time. 

Hansel Part I (Hansel #1) by Ella James

One boy. Mother calls him Hansel.
One girl. Mother named her Gretel.
Locked in little rooms, in the mountainside mansion of a crazy woman.
Until he saws a hole into the wall dividing them.
Then at least, they have each other’s hands.

It doesn’t end well at Mother’s house.
Everything gets…broken.

Ten years later, they meet again in an exclusive Vegas sex club.
Whips.
Chains.
And most of all, a mask.
What happens to love when it gets twisted? 

This is the third series of Ella James erotic fairy tales. At the beginning of Hansel I already felt a little lost. However as I continued reading I couldn't put it down.  As we discover Leah (Gretel) was kidnapped and brought to The House by Mother and meets Hansel. Presently Leah finds Edger (Hansel) in a new version of the House performing BDSM. She finds out Edger is taking applications for a new submissive and applies. This novella is a scorcher.

Welcome to my blog.

In creating this blog in hope to share my thought on books that keep me sane. My life is hectic being a Mom, a wife and working full time. I have a lot of responsibilities at home and at work. I use reading to relax and unwind. I prefer romance and adult fiction. However it was the Harry Potter series that got me started reading for leisure. My Nook became my best friend the last couple of years. I use Goodreads to read reviews and leave reviews. 

Where this will go.... I don't know. I hope to make some new friends who enjoy reading as much as do.
