She's ready to move on with a little bit of help from a friend. She had always been the good girl and decides to do something perfectly inappropriate by taking a chance on an exclusive dating app. Noah Grant has no time in his busy political schedule for relationships. Noah isn't looking for forever after growing up in a politician's household. It is imperative for him to keep his proclivities from the public. When he meets Olivia he finds himself at a crossroads. give love a chance or continue to solely focus on his career.  

The story is sweet and heartwarming. Olivia is a strong woman who pushed past her boundaries and found herself. I loved it! 5 Stars

Book Review: Dirty-Talking Cowboy by Stacey Kennedy

Dirty-Talking Cowboy (Kinky Spurs, #1)

Emma Monroe has returned to River Rock, Colorado, after the death of her grandmother. Now she’s inherited a farm full of abused animals and she’s working as a waitress at the local hotspot, Kinky Spurs. The last thing Emma wants in her life is a man, as she’s still recovering from a recent heartbreak. But when a sensual and powerful cowboy, Shep Blackshaw enters her life, Emma begins to want things she shouldn't.

Shep knows sex shouldn’t be on his mind. He’s got a world of responsibility on his shoulders. He’s attempting to save his late father’s cattle ranch, Blackshaw Cattle Company, from foreclosure. But Emma’s heated reactions to his touch make ignoring her impossible. She’s the perfect distraction to make him forget that his father’s company is a sinking ship.

While their nights only heat up, soon emotions become tangled into the mix. Shep’s not only giving Emma the hottest nights of her life, he’s also healing her heart. With every encounter, she forgets her heartbreak. With every naughty adventure, she stops mourning the life she left behind. And with every dirty word whispered from Shep’s mouth, she stops thinking of all the reasons why she shouldn’t fall for him. But when the past comes to claim Emma, she’ll need to choose between the life she thought she wanted and the life she’s grown to love with Shep. How will she say no to forever with a dirty-talking cowboy.


I loved this book! The angst, the heartache, the struggle had me balling. Dirty-Talking Cowboy is a beautiful story with a bit of kink. 

Shep Blackhaw is all alpha cowboy! He taken on his family's responsibilities since his father's sudden passing. Meeting and falling for Emma Monroe was not in his plans but it didn't stop him from roping her in.  

Emma Monroe has returned to River Rock after her grandmother's passing.  She's left her life in New York after a heartbreak. She's hurting, much like the horse she's taken in, Bentley. Bentley is a part of the menagerie of abused animals she's inherited from her grandmother. While in River Rock Emma is set to sort out her life. Shep is very willing to help find her way.

Shep is 100% swoon worthy. He's all cowboy lassoing in Emma and fighting for her until the very end. I love how the author developed the relationship between Emma and Bentley. He was literally her spirit animal.  5 Stars

Book Review: Bought By The Boss by Stacey Kennedy

35185556

What’s better than one bad-boy boss? How about two?

In a duet of naughty novellas, a charity date auction turns into all-out war when a pair of powerful corporate lawyers each buy the other’s assistant for a weekend of seduction.

HIS PRICE
I’ve wanted Aria Finley from the moment I met her.
We flirt, we laugh, we connect. It could be perfect.
She’s even best friends with my assistant.
Problem is, she works for my archnemesis—Jackson Keller—and she’s the kind of girl who stays loyal unless you give her a reason not to.
Besides my hard-on there’s something hot between us, and I won’t rest until I put my finger on it.
So when I get the chance to buy Aria for the weekend at a charity auction, there’s no limit.
I’m going to take her home and take what I want because I’ll make her want it too.
And by Monday, she’ll know she’s mine.

DIRTY MONEY
Liam Maxwell thinks he can get to me through my assistant, Aria.
Well, two can play that game.
Now Mallory Beckett—Liam’s assistant and Aria’s best friend—is mine for the weekend.
Only she has no idea who bought her at the charity auction.
This is going to be worth every penny.
But soon I realize that Mallory has been waiting for my touch all along.
What starts as a fling turns into something more.
From the beginning, I was so focused on stealing her away.
I never thought about the fact that I’d drown if I lost her.
Now the game has changed. And she needs to know that she belongs to me.




I loved, loved this book! It's contains two separate stories that are intertwined by a broken friendship. I read both stories in one sitting.

Liam Maxwell has finally decided to pursue Aria Finely. He bids high at a charity event to win a weekend with Aria. Liam has stayed away from Aria because she works for an opposing corporate lawyer, who also happens to be his old law school roommate and now archnemesis. Their connection is intense! Liam has a plan to win over Aria but can she move past her loyalty to her boss. Oh, man! Liam sent shivers down my spine with his sexy dominance.

Jackson Keller decides that two can play that game. Jackson bids on and wins Mallory Beckett who works for Liam. Mallory was only suppose to be a pawn in his game against Liam. However Mallory has other plans and turns the tables on Jackson, offering herself up for a weekend fling. Mallory holds her ground with Jackson and soon creeps into his heart. They discover they have a lot in common. Mallory also discovers the truth about the feud between Liam and Jackson. Can Jackson make a mends in order to win over Mallory?

I love the dual conflicts the characters faced. Aria and Mallory are faced with choosing between love and loyalty. It doesn't help that Liam and Jackson are swoony, hard-headed, dominates. It's a fight to the end (literally) to get these two men to make a mends. I will say I had a few good chuckles that added the intense sexiness.  5 Stars!

Book Review: Cuffed by His Charm by Stacey Kennedy

Cuffed by His Charm (Dirty Little Secrets, #4)
A tabloid scandal unites a powerful mogul and a woman from the wrong side of the tracks in this tantalizing novel from the USA Today bestselling author of Bound Beneath His Pain and the Club Sin series.

The multimillionaire owner of a chain of successful Irish pubs, Gabe O’Keefe loves being in the spotlight almost as much as he loves women. But when all his secrets are exposed in a shameless tabloid, his glistening reputation takes a hit. What hurts most is learning who sold him out: sweet and sensual McKenna Archer, his own employee. Gabe thought he could trust her. But now he’s got bigger problems than keeping his hands off McKenna.

After putting a difficult past behind her, McKenna would never betray Gabe. But she knows someone who would: her brother, a compulsive gambler who owes money all over town. To make things right, McKenna will have to set aside her feelings for her boss. Easier said than done. Gabe oozes pure temptation. But when they team up, McKenna sees that he isn’t the manwhore she always thought. He’s strong. He’s real. And the heat between them is the only thing that makes sense anymore.


Cuffed by His Charm is the fourth book and final book in the Dirty Little Secrets Series. The story line continues in this suspense filled romance. You do not need to read the series in order, each story is an independent romance. 

We pick up with Gabe O'Keefe confronting the possible snitch, his employee, love interest, McKenna Archer. Gabe and McKenna share a mutual attraction but Gabe has kept his distance because McKenna is his employee.  Now all bets are off since discovering that McKenna is the snitch. 

As it turns out, it was McKenna's brother who has sold out Gabe and his friends to the tabloids. Now the issue is McKenna's brother is missing and Gabe has to put his feeling aside or lose McKenna.

I really enjoyed this series but I felt Cuffed by His Charm was a small let down. McKenna, our heroine, didn't have enough balls. She didn't get angry in spite of being hurt but rather she was a doormat. Although at the beginning of the story Gabe made a terrible decision he redeemed himself by putting aside his personal feelings in order to keep McKenna. 3 Stars

Book review: Skirt Chaser by Stacey Kennedy

Skirt Chaser (Filthy Dirty Love Book 2)
Greyson Crawford works hard by day and plays even harder at night. And he understands and obeys the rules of the game. One, don’t mix business and pleasure. Two, employees are off-limits. So, he’s been eagerly counting down the days until interior designer, Evie Richards is no longer under contract with his Seattle architecture firm. But when that day comes, he realizes there are more obstacles in his way. The biggest…Evie herself.

Until Evie gets asked to be the maid-of-honor in her best friend’s destination wedding, and Evie needs a date. The circumstances are perfect for Greyson to set his plan of seduction into motion. He will happily play the boyfriend for the wedding event, if Evie will surrender to his every command and play in his bed.

For Evie, it’s all fun and games until Greyson’s first touch; then she begins to question what’s real. She knows better than to fall for a guy like Greyson—a skirt chasing ladies’ man—but with every slow caress and kinky adventure, she realizes that Greyson knows what he wants, and it isn’t just her body surrendering to him…it’s her heart.

Stacey Kennedy is one of my go to authors. I enjoy her sweet and sexy stories. Skirt Chaser is now my absolute favorite!

Skirt Chaser
is the second book in the Filthy Dirty Love series. Oh yes, their loving is definitely filthy dirty. The story pulled me in immediately. The characters chemistry is off the charts. The story is fast-paced. It doesn't give you a chance to put it down.

Evie Richards is the maid-of-honor in her best friend's wedding. A wedding which her best friend is marrying her ex-boyfriend. It's a pretty sticky situation but Evie has made the best of it. She only wants them to be happy.

Greyson Crawford, Mr. skirt-chasing ladies' man, is ready to make his move on Evie now that she has completed her contract as his interior designer. When Grey discovers why Evie ran away crying, he makes his move and offers to go to the wedding as her date. It's a win-win for both of them because Grey gets Evie guilt-free with no strings attached and Evie gets a pseudo boyfriend in order to get through the wedding.

Grey has only one rule for the weekend "My game. My rules. Your surrender, until we're back in Seattle." The weekend moves quickly as Grey and Evie get to know each other outside and inside the bedroom. Their relationship is pretty intense until Grey inadvertently splashes cold water on it and they go their separate ways. This is where I couldn't read fast enough. I wanted a HEA and I wanted on the next page. Don't fret the author did not fail.

Skirt Chaser is a heart felt, emotional roller coaster of a ride romance. 5 Stars!

Book Review: Restrained Under His Duty by Stacey Kennedy

Restrained Under His Duty (Dirty Little Secrets, #3)

As the chief of security for a prominent senator, Ryder Blackwood is stunned when an anonymous source sends him a compromising photo of his boss’s twenty-five-year-old daughter getting down and dirty in an underground sex club. If it gets out, the media firestorm could ruin her father. More troubling for Ryder is how arousing he finds the whole situation. He’s known Hadley Winters since she was a kid. And now she’s the woman in all his most private fantasies.

Wild behavior helps Hadley get through those painful, lonely nights, but she’s been waiting a long time for a man like Ryder to protect her from herself. Ryder is raw. He’s real. And he makes her feel safe. Now that they’ve both become pawns in a blackmailer’s dangerous game, there’s more at stake than her father’s political career. As the intimate threats tear apart a tender new love, Hadley is forced to trust Ryder with her life—and her heart.



Restrained Under His Duty is the third book in the Dirty Little Secrets series.  It is by far my favorite in the series. Stacey Kennedy is one of my go to authors. She writes sexy stories with alpha males and strong heroines. This story has both. There’s also plenty of intrigue, suspense and heated moments.

Ryder Blackwood, sex club owner, Dominants’ Counsel member is the chief of security for Senator Gary Winters. Hadley Winters, daughter of Senator Gary Winters, has been interested in Ryder since she was a little girl. When he rejects her yet again she lets loose. Now Hadley Winters needs Ryder’s help with finding her blackmailer but can Ryder keep his feeling in check in order to keep her and her father safe?

This book! The suspense kept me on edge.  The characters flaws gave them depth. Plus, there’s finally a breakthrough in the ongoing story line that has plagued the Dominants’ Counsel. I can’t wait for the next book. 5 Stars!

Book Review: Heartbreaker by Stacey Kennedy

Heartbreaker (Filthy Dirty Love)
Veteran cop, Maddox Hunt, is all about the job. Sure, there are women—lots of women, truth be told—but there’s no one special. Until a one-night stand from his past, rookie Joss O’Neil is assigned to his division. Suddenly, all he can think about is her. The scent of her. The taste of her.

Fresh out of field training, Joss has thrown herself into her job, determined to kick-start her career. And while police work has its thrills, her gorgeous new boss is what really gets her pulse pounding. Too bad he’s nothing but a distraction. Especially since he’s as devastatingly handsome as she remembers, and his sexy smile arrests her heart.

Now that Joss is back in Maddox’s life, he has a plan: satisfy her fantasies and fulfill his every dark desire. Nothing is off limits. Her pleasure is the endgame . . . but even the best-laid plans have a way of falling apart. Despite his best attempts to keep his distance and have things remain only about the pleasure, Maddox soon finds himself breaking the only law he’s set for himself. Don’t fall in love.

Heartbreaker is book one in the Filthy Dirty Love series. Yes, this series couldn't have been better named. This is a second chance lust-to-love story that begins with an intensely steamy one-night stand. This story brings on the heat! There are plenty of steamy scene that will fire up your senses.

Joss O'Neil is assigned to the west precinct of the the Seattle Police Department. She's a rookie with a big goal to be a detective. As chance may have it Joss's new boss is none other than Maddox Hunt, police lieutenant, total badass, resident heartbreaker and the one-night stand she had a year ago. It was a year ago when Joss had been dumped by her long time boyfriend, the man she put first and let dictate her life. She was headed to the police academy and didn't want a relationship so a one-night stand was just what she needed. But what she couldn't forget was the connection she felt that night.

Maddox is not a relationship type of guy. He makes it clear to women that it's only a one-time deal. Maddox has one-night stands and disposes of the women before they can dispose of him. It's how he deals with his feelings about his mother, who had left him as a child and never returned. When Joss reappears in his life Maddox can't help feeling like they have unfinished business.

This story is sexy! Maddox is all Alpha. He's a filthy, dirty, possessive bastard. Joss and Maddox have an intense chemistry that keep you turning the pages. I found myself cheering for Maddox, Joss and their HEA. I loved the epilogue. Stacey Kennedy never fails to leave you feeling good at the end. 4 Stars!

Book Review: Tied To His Betrayal by Stacey Kennedy

Tied to His Betrayal (Dirty Little Secrets, #2)
Darius Bennett can’t live without supreme control. A self-made billionaire, he’s rich enough to get anything—and any woman—he wants, yet he’s still haunted by a broken relationship. Five years ago, Darius let Taylor Erikson go because he knew he could never give her what she truly wanted: his heart. But the moment Taylor walks back into his life, bruised and beaten, Darius blames himself. To make good on his betrayal, he vows to help her heal—in and out of the sheets.

Once upon a time, Darius was Taylor’s world. Now his fierce embrace is exactly what she needs to get back on her feet. But Taylor pays a heavy price for her sizzling nights with Darius. As the emotional ties become stronger than ever and the paparazzi hunt her down for their next juicy story, Taylor must face some hard truths. They can’t go back. And to move forward, the key to loving Darius isn’t about keeping his secrets—it’s about exposing them.


Tied To His Betrayal is the second book in the Dirty Little Secrets series. It's Darius and Taylor's turn to find love in this second chance romance. 

Taylor Erikson has return home bruised after a fall out with her now ex, Shawn Mason. Darius struggles with Taylor's return because he ended their relationship so she could have a better life.

"She wanted the fairy tale, and unless the hero likes the darker delights of sex, power, and money, then I'm not the right type of knight in shining armor."

 
Darius is ten years older then Taylor and had put his career front and center. He let go of Taylor so she could live her life and find the right person. Instead Taylor only found heartache and pain. Now that she's back home Darius is conflicted. He wants to protect Taylor from her ex, from the paparazzi and from himself.

Darius begins to understand how his past has effected the choices he's made. Why he put business in front of his personal life. Can he change before he loses Taylor forever?

The story deals with a few issues including childhood trauma and physical abuse. This is where I struggled with the story. Taylor made a decision to handle her ex instead of reporting him to the authorities. I understand the character's intention but I still struggled with her decision. Although the ending is a happy one, there are still unresolved issues for the group. 3 Stars.

Review: Bound Beneath His Pain by Stacey Kennedy

Bound Beneath His Pain (Dirty Little Secrets, #1)
Real estate mogul Micah Holt exerts absolute control over all aspects of his life. As a founding member of the Dominants Council that oversees San Francisco's sex club scene, he keeps his dark side hidden away from the press, who will chase down any hint of scandal. He's always in command of his world, careful to expose his closely guarded secrets only to those he knows he can trust. Then Allie Bennett shakes his legendary discipline. She's beautiful, pure, untainted. But is Micah willing to sacrifice her innocence for his own selfish obsessions?

When that sexy smile makes her body burn, Allie tries with all her might to ignore it. For one thing, Micah's her new boss. For another, he's as complicated as he is devastatingly handsome. Still, Allie can only fight so much before she gives in to his dangerous games. She knows he's got dark secrets. But when she discovers the true depth of his pain, Allie must decide how far she's willing to go to light the way for love.


Dirty Little Secret series had been introduced at the end of the Club Sin Series. The new series centers around the men of the DC. However this series is a little different from the previous. The first story in the series, Bound Beneath His Pain doesn't revolve around the BDSM clubs in San Francisco but rather the Dom millionaire who finds the one woman who can see through his pain. 

Micah Holt is 'an enigma and one with a dark past.' He's the founding member of the Dominants Counsel and a very successful Real estate mogul. Micah is an interesting character. He owns a club that caters to his fetishes however he doesn't attend. When his demons need to feed he turns to his friend with benefits. It's his demons that have held him back from a real relationship. His past is dictating his present, he has villainezed himself. 

Allie Bennett accepts a job at Micah's agency and becomes the eye of his obsession. Allie has secrets of her own. Micah aggressively pursues Allie. She pushes back because she doesn't want her secret to get out. When they finally come together one of Micah's secrets is revealed causing Allie to run. 

Allie is the light to Micah's dark. She's innocent to his demons. Micah holds his demon at bay but Allie fights to have all of him. Micah pigeonholed Allie as innocent and pure, missing the signs that they may not be so different. The story has the right amount of angst and sexiness. I enjoyed the ending. I can't wait for the next book in the series, there's a glimpse of the next couple at the end of the book. 5 Stars!

Wow, Dax does not let us down. He lights up Sadie on their first steamy encounter by completely commanding her body.

Review: Mine (Club Sin #7) by Stacey Kennedy

Mine (Club Sin, #7)

Dmitri Pratt is living out his dream. Not only does he own the ultimate playground for the BDSM lifestyle, he’s found a special connection with his deliciously sexy sub, Presley Flynn, the woman who complements him in ways that go far beyond the bedroom. But when an anonymous blackmailer threatens to expose the elite, high-profile members of Club Sin in a notorious tabloid, Dmitri’s perfect world spirals out of control.

Before she met Dmitri, Presley never imagined she would find a Master who could deliver on all her hottest fantasies. Dmitri’s love and his sensual artistry surprise her every day, until he suddenly turns distant and cold. For the first time, Presley wonders where Dmitri’s heart truly lies: with her, or with Club Sin. As the life they’ve built together begins to crumble, Presley can only trust that Dmitri has what it takes—to defend what’s his, and win back the woman he cannot live without.



I was initially saddened to discover that this will be the final book in the Club Sin Series. I've enjoyed getting to know the characters. The ending does bring a beautiful surprise. If you have read the entire series this will be an emotional ride. I read the last few chapters blinking away the tears. Stacey Kennedy brings us back to the couple who started it all, who brought the Club Sin family together and gave us a happily ever after.

When the past comes back to haunt Dmitri and the Club Sin members, it's Dmitri who puts himself and his relationship on the line to keep their secret safe. It's an angsty, emotional ride with a beautiful HEA.

Good News! Stacey has a new series coming out Dungeon's Key. The characters were briefly introduced in 'Mine'.

Review: Commanded: A Club Sin Novel (Club Sin #6) by Stacey Kennedy @Tastybooktours @Stacey_Kennedy

Commanded: A Club Sin Novel (Club Sin series)

A dedicated cop, Sawyer Quinn blows off steam by immersing himself in his role as a Master at the hottest club in Las Vegas. But when Sawyer goes after the perp who brutally beat his sister, he teams up with Chloe Nash, a sexy private investigator who awakens a sweet new need: to keep her to himself, away from the dungeon of Club Sin. Chloe is beautiful, smart, and too innocent for the BDSM lifestyle. Sawyer’s never wanted a woman like this before. Is her love worth swearing off the one thing that keeps him sane?

There’s something different about Sawyer: a commanding strength that pulls Chloe into a vortex of heady desire. But when she learns about his double life as a Dom, she’s shocked—and afraid she could never complete him. Then he saves her life, and just like that, Chloe knows she will be able to give him anything he desires. She is his—wherever and however he wants to take her








I really enjoyed this short read, I finished it in a day. I couldn't put it down. This is the sixth book in the enjoyable Club Sin series, we are treated with Sawyer Quinn and Chloe Nash's story. What can I say I'm a Club Sin glutton!

Chloe Nash follows the rules, she's a hard worker and conforms to social norms. After one meeting with Sawyer Quinn "had changed her self-perception. His presence had awakened her in unique ways." Chloe began questioning her happiness, she wants passion. A horrible event brought Sawyer to seek Chloe's assistance. Chloe works for Porter Marshall as a private investigator. Sawyer and Porter are both sexual dominates at Club Sin.   

Chloe tries hard to conform to society's norms, she has no kink experience. She has an intense connection with Sawyer, but will that connection be enough after Sawyer shares his kinks. Sawyer discovered BDSM after he left the military, it provided him with structure and gave him away to be in charge. Sawyer has a real connection with Chloe that defies logic. He isn't going to ignore it and he'll do anything to keep it. What will they be willing to sacrifice for their relationship? Are either willing to change who they are?

I really like Chloe, she may be a conformist but she's willing to explore in the name of love. She doesn't judge without knowledge. Sawyer is a deluxe alpha male. He's a real Dominate, he knows his submissive needs and wants. I don't want to give anymore away. You'll need to read the story.  I can tell you if you if you enjoy the club sin series, you will enjoy Commanded. Commanded has it all, passion, action, emotion, and a HEA.  Oh, and of course kink!

Review: Tamed (Club Sin #5) by Stacey Kennedy


Tamed_Kennedy

Porter Marshall has nearly achieved his goal of becoming a Club Sin Master, but his new sub poses a much bigger challenge than he anticipated. Despite their mutual attraction and red-hot dungeon sessions, Kenzie Hart plays her own games. Her bratty, you-can’t-break-me attitude masks terrible personal hurt—pain that only the exquisite touch of a skilled Dom can release. But when Porter suggests taking their connection to the outside world, Kenzie denies him . . . which only makes him want her more.






Kenzie can’t ignore the raw, fierce bond she has with Porter. But she can’t give in to his dangerous demands, either. Is the passion they share real, or is he using her to solidify his status at Club Sin? And yet, who else can she trust with the shattering secrets she holds within? As Porter expertly brings her to the point of no return, Kenzie surrenders her body—and, piece by piece, her heart.



 

1-Click Pre-order on Amazon Tamed: A Club Sin Novel



 


This is Porter and Kenzie's story and The 5th in the Club Sin series.  When Kenzie is at Club Sin she's a 'Brat'.  She misbehaves in order to provoke a a Dom into punishing her. Porter has been assigned to Kenzie in order to gain his Master's status at the club. He had been watching Kenzie for a while and was ready for the challenge. What he didn't know was he would fall for her. Kenzie was hiding secrets from her Dom and her friends. Secrets that could hurt her and were consuming her. Porter had a difficult job getting Kenzie to open up. . This story provoked all sorts of emotions. I cried, laughed and smiled. Although the first few pages struck me as slightly corny I really enjoyed the story. We got to know and understand Kenzie. Her past was consuming her and her present was falling apart. Porter had the right amount of patience, confidence and self doubt.   He saw into Kenzie's soul and wanted in and not just as a friend.  The question is will she let him in? Will she share her secrets?  I can't wait for the next Club Sin book.  Sawyer and Chloe?
