*****5 "Bend to my will" Stars*****

"The woman I'm looking for will bend to my will and bask in the pain I gift her. In return I will give her everything I have and everything I am."

Agnes has had a rough time of it over the last year. The birth of her son, only to find out that he has terminal cancer, then to lose him at around 6 months old. Her marriage doesn't survive the loss, and without the support of her husband, she may not either.

One thing leads to another and she finds herself seeking out a Dominant. Someone to help her feel... something... anything again.

Enter Master Marcus. The meet online, and for many weeks they talk and get to know each other. Master Marcus is hopeful that the relationship will become something more once they meet.

Agnes, being cautious, uses her middle and maiden name as her online persona, becoming Eliza Stuart, and it's Eliza he's looking for when she agrees to meet him at the upscale BDSM club.

Agnes is excited, and nervous about her first time in a BDSM Club, but she puts on her big girl panties and heads through the door of the club and to the bar where Master Marcus has asked her to wait for him.

But then, there's more.

David sees the beautiful woman standing by the bar taking in all the scenery around her. The minute their eyes meet, he's done. He doesn't believe in love at first site... until now. He introduces himself, and who should walk up to claim her? But his best friend... Marcus.

Things get really interesting at this point!

Who will have Agnes/Eliza? Who will she want? Will the "therapy" of pain in the club help her to center her life again after such a tragic loss?

The best way to find out is to run as fast as you can and grab this book. If you enjoy a juicy BDSM story with real feelings, romance, and smexy sex, then look no further for your next book boyfriends!

*****5 "That is INSANE" Stars*****

Willow Madison is a "new to me" author, and has thrown me right into stalkerville! She's good. She's really, really good!

It's hard to review this story without giving too much away, but I'll try!

"She's obviously crazy. Obviously broken."

Grace has been terribly abused in her past, which has left her with many emotional scars. Her only option was to try and outrun all of it.

She is a very unique character to me, I don't think I've read one quite as screwed up as this poor girl is.

"Breaking a woman is easy once you apply simple mindfuck techniques"

Simon takes women, breaks them, trains them, and sells them. It's who he is and he makes no apologies for it. He has spotted Grace, and he wants her, and in his line of work, he always gets what he wants. He's a hard character to get a read on, one minute he excites me, the next I hate him. But all wrapped up around that box of crazy is someone with a story that I want to learn more about.

Miles... now if you think what I've said here about Grace and Simon is crazy, well, just wait until you meet Miles.

"I have a plan for us, my love. A way that we can be together always. Would you like that?"

Miles is the man left behind, and he wants Grace back. She's elusive but he has the money to find her and bring her home.

And that cliffhanger! Damn! Just. Damn. This book is full of the dark and crazy, and I loved it! I can't wait to read We Were One Once Book 2!

Overall rating: 1.6

As much as I love Marissa Honeycutt's books, this one was a letdown for me.

I couldn't connect with the characters, Kyra just annoyed me. And if you've been kidnapped by a psycho who works for another psycho, why would you care if they thought you were pretty or not?

"You're gonna be a sex slave." "me? a sex slave? who would want to have sex with me? my body is not attractive!"

Really? *THAT* is what she's worried about? That her body isn't attractive?

It was dialogue such as that that made me want to throw my Kindle across the room, and I'll admit to basically skimming this book from Chapter 9 on. I'd read a few pages and do something else, like read another book, then come back to this one. Thus the reason it took me forever to read.

****4 "Walk on the dark side" stars****

The final book in the Killer series by Bonny Capps tells the story of Gabe's grandson, Milo, the last of the Thibault line.

It's been a long journey from Gabe and Amelia to Gabriel and Dani and now to Milo, a.k.a. "M", and Adriana. This book begins twenty-five years after Gabriel ended, twenty-five years after Milo was stolen from Gabriel and Dani.

Milo is deep and dark. He looks like his father, Gabriel, with blonde hair and green eyes and the Thibault gene pool is at it's strongest in Milo. He is a killer with over 900 kills, he's got a lot of blood on his hands and makes no apologies for it.

"She understands my darkness, because now she's such a huge part of it. She's not an angel. She's a devil, just like me. She's the epitome of my affections, and I don't go giving that shit to nobody."

He's happy living his life without the ties of any relationship. Women are meant to be used, abused, fucked, and then just move on. Don't look back, don't get involved. That was his motto.

Until Adriana.

"'I'm your whore...your little kitten,' I whisper."

"I hate to love him, and I love to hate him. Our relationship is a double edged sword."

Adriana works at a club that her father owns called "Beau". She's a dancer and it's not by choice. Her father has total control over her. And he's a totally asshat. He uses her beauty to pull in the customers night after night into the Beau. She has black hair and very pale skin, earning her the nickname, "Living Dead Girl", and once her gray eyes clash with Milo's green ones, it's over for both of them.

Their "non-relationship relationship" is tumultuous at best and it's hard to say too much as I don't want to give anything away. This is one of those "end of series" books that you must experience for yourself to get the full value of the ride.

And the ending... damn, what an ending. I didn't see any of it coming, it actually made me choke up.

Bonny, you did to me again..

But seriously, that was.......

Loved it!

Dangerous Ties by J.L. Beck

Dangerous Ties by J.L. Beck

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Writing: ★★★
Story: ★★★
Characters: ★★★

Overall rating: 3.0

This book had the potential to be so much more than it was. Everything felt so rushed. If the author had turned this into something other than a short story, and took time to develop the characters, it *could* have been so much more.

But instead we have a short story that ends in a major cliffhanger and no release date as of yet for the next book.

The author, on the last page of the book, asks, "Loved it? Hated it?", I didn't hate this book, because I did see the potential in it. But I didn't "love" it either... kind of lukewarm.

"I was a lion on my first hunt, the prey within sight. All I had to do was sink my teeth into her."

I wanted to know more about Grayson, how he came to be where he was and who he was. His story sounds so tortured. The bad boy that would give just about anything to be something more.

When Grayson spots Ellie across a crowded club, he's drawn to her. He doesn't know why, he just is.

He's at the bar when she approaches him. She's decided, on this night, that she's going to be someone else. Just to do something other than work and hide. One (quick) minute later, Grayson taking her out of the club, out the back way.

"I'm going to take you back to my hotel. Fuck you. Then leave you there with the lingering feeling of my cock being inside of you wears off."

But things go horribly wrong, and next thing we know, instead of being the quick night of passion they're both looking for, circumstances put Ellie and Grayson in the position of being captor and captive.

Grayson has to kill Ellie, his own life depends on it. But can he do it? He's never hesitated before, so why is he this time? With her?

"In the end you deal with the cards you were dealt in life. I couldn't change the hand, but I could draw a new card to better my deck."

Secrets come out, lies and truths are told. Will someone die? Will Grayson and Ellie make it out alive? Who are Grayson and Ellie? You'll have to read to find out.

This book could have been more of a 3.5 or 3.75. But it needs a lot of editing work, and bit more character building. I'm not sure if I'll continue with the series. Depends if the author is going to string us along with a bunch of short stories or if she'd going to make an actual novel of Severed Ties.
