Featured Series: J. R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood

Hola Chickies!  This week our featured Spook-ta-cular series comes from the Fan-tas-tic Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward!  This series is THAT business because it was Celie's and my first discovery of Twilight for Adults!  To say we were in awe when we first listened to Dark Lover is an understatement.  I for one had multiple eargasms listening to Wrath because he is the epitome of my type of alpha male with just a bit of mean and 280 lbs of male sexiness!YEAK!

Arthur:  Jacquelyn Frank

When Celie and I decided to feature Jacquelyn Frank's Nighwalkers series as our featured series of the month, we spent some time thinking back on our favorite books in the series.  Since we read them ages ago, and because I also have a copy of the audiobook, I decided to load it back onto my Ipod and give it another try to see if my reaction would still be the same.  Well let me tell you, I still love Gideon and it was even better the second time around!

Nettie Reviews Sins and Needles by Karina Halle

Title:  Sins and Needles
Series:  The Artists Trilogy (Book 1)
Author:  Karina Halle
Genre:  Contemporary Romance

Sins and Needles.....the title says it all!  It's one of those books you pick up because your crazy group of Goodreads friends can't stop gushing about how Awe-Some it is so you give it a try.  Well little did I know what type of ride I was in for when I started.  To say I was initially disappointed is an understatement.  The book started out slow for me, and being the inpatient person that I am and because I have little tolerance for flashback scenes that tells the backstory, I almost gave up before things got good.  Well I'm really glad I powered through because when things picked up in this book, they shot through the roof!

Our SINsual quote this week comes from Knight by Kristen Ashley. This quote takes place after Anya believes a lie Knight's brother tells her.

I'm gonna let you off me, Anya, then you're gonna crawl into bed on your own, cheek to the mattress, ass in the air and feel lucky we are not at my place.  You need a cane, at least a strap but all I got is my belt and that might mark you so you're gonna take my hand.

 Now that Chickies is how Christian Grey as suppose to be........Laters!

Book Review: Lick by Kylie Scott

Title:  Lick
Series:  Stage Dive (Book 1)
Author:  Kylie Scott
Genre:  Contemporary Romance

"Love and heartbreak made you breathtakingly stupid, desperate even.  The things you'd try to tell yourself to make it through, hoping one day you'd believe it." ~Kylie Scott

HOLY COW! LICK is THAT Business type of book!  I don't even know where to begin gushing about how much I really loved this book....okay fine, I know but in the interest of not spoiling it for others I won't go into all the ways Lick rocked my world!

Lick starts out with the conventional taboo of boy meets girl in Vegas....girl is drunk and goes off with boy....boy and girl end up married by an Elvis impersonator....and girl has no clue what happened the next morning!  That is basically what happens to Evelyn and David in the book, however Kylie Scott weaves this immense screw up into a heart wrenching, soul souring beautiful story!  I love, love, love how Scott takes this couple through the ringer in a way that allows both parities to grow, challenge their beliefs about themselves and each other, and eventually make it to a place where they can accept their failures and consciously choose to learn from those mistakes and move forward.

Audiobooks....the New form of Reading???

The popularity of audiobooks has steadily grown over the past few years with the introduction of Amazon's Audible.com company.  Audible.com is a web based provider that features audiobooks from all different genres, as well as educational lectures, and other news media.

The beauty of signing up for an Audible.com account is that you can sign up for a plan that fits your needs, you get 24 hour customer service, and they have a no questions asked return policy for any book you purchase and don't like!  The other beautiful part of using an audible account is they have created digital downloads so you can sync directly to your Apple IPod, IPad, Droid, Kindle, and many other digital devices with the ability to play mp3 files.  No longer do you have to purchase the discs and then individually download each one, while trying to understand the complicated method of coding so that the tracks play in order before you can sync it to your favorite on-the-go device. What a major pain in the arse the old method was!

SINsual Sunday!

This week our SINsual Sunday Quote is from Passion Unleashed, book 3 in the Demonica Series by Larissa Ione.

Greedily, she reached between them and palmed his erection. She squeezed him through
his pants, and he made a raw, male noise. “Were you lying when you said you couldn’t come like this?”  “No.” His tongue swept over her bottom lip. “My kind can only achieve release inside a female.” “Then get inside me.” ~Wrath and Serena, Passion Unleashed by Larissa Ione.

 SWEET JESUS!  Those Demons were off the chain!  Laters Chickies!

Book Review: Undeniable by Madeline Sheehan

Title:  Undeniable
Series:  Undeniable (Book 1)
Author:  Madeline Sheehan
Genre:  Contemporary Romance

Warning: This is not a "typical love story". This is an all-consuming, soul-crushing, tear-your-heart-into-pieces story. It’s intense, gritty and raw, dark and disturbing, and it doesn’t happen overnight. This is an epic love story that knows no boundaries and has no time limits. It grows and develops—with hurt, sacrifice, and heartache—over the span of a lifetime. ~ Madeline Sheehan's book description from Goodreads.

Undeniable is one of those books you often see featured all over the place with a disclaimer that it is AWESOME!  It has been on my "to read" list for quite some time and as usual, I fall prey to the hype and have to pick up a copy to see if it really is "that business."

50 Shades of Grey Hits the Big Screen!

Hola Chickies, what’s shaking? Sooooooo, Tuesday was a huge day for fans of E. L. James’ Fifty Shades of Grey series after the press release announcing Charlie Hunnam as Christian Grey, and Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steele. While I’m excited to see the movie….even though I hated the books….these two would not have been my first picks for playing Christian and Anastasia.

Book Review: Tall, Dark & Lonely by R. L. Mathewson

Title:  Tall, Dark & Lonely
Series:   Pyte/Sentinel Series, Book 1
Author:  R. L. Mathewson
Genre:  Paranormal Romance

I have no idea where to go with this particular review.  Tall, Dark & Lonely is one of those books that you have to make some exceptions for because A).  It's the first book in the series and B).  The author has to finish the back story before the series can be awesome.  We that disclaimer in hand, I will try to summarize how I felt about this one.  

Ephraim Williams is a rare and special type of vampire that results from a human and vampire mating.  Unlike other vampires, Ephraim is not considered evil and most importantly, he can walk in the daylight.  He was born in the early 1800s to a Duke who suspected his wife was unfaithful to him resulting in her pregnancy with Ephraim.  Regardless of his wife indiscretions, the Duke raised Ephraim as his own until he turned 16 and went through a strange transformation while in a coma that changed him into a an adult male with a fiery desire to drink blood.  When it was discovered that Ephraim was indeed a vampire and required blood to survive, the Duke ordered Ephraim murdered, however being the rare breed he was, Ephraim was unable to be killed and survived brutal torture for 20 years before he was freed.

Book Review: The Guardian by Sherrilyn Kenyon

Title: The Guardian
Series: Dark Hunters Book 21
Author: Sherrilyn Kenyon
Genre: Paranormal Romance

Wow!  Where do I start with this one....after listening to Acheron’s story I didn’t think Sherrilyn Kenyon could make another story that brought tears to my eyes. But then, she wrote Seth’s book. This dude had such a hard childhood that I was depressed for most of the book!

Seth has an Egyptian God as a father and a human mother that should have been beat to death. This chick named Seth after his father who in turn, hated and rejected his son. His mom was so unhappy with her son that she took him into the desert and after breaking his knees left him to die alone. Do you want to find this chick yet????  I did....anyway, poor young Seth already had it bad but it got even worst. While stranded in the desert some were-hunter jackals took him in making him think he was part of the family. But no that’s no enough. The jackals turn around and sold Seth to a punk name Noir. Noir constantly abuses poor Seth to the point Seth has no self-esteem and believes himself to be worthless. Luckily, for Seth a women name Lydia enters his realm on a completely different mission.
