Within Temptation by Tanya Holmes

Title: Within Temptation (Sons of Temptation #1)

Author: Tanya Holmes

Release Date: May 12, 2014

Category: Romantic Mystery/Romantic Suspense. This is not erotica or romantica. This is a romance centered around a murder mystery.

Heat Factor: 3 out of 5 -- The sexual tension is high, and the burn is slow. Sex is character-driven, rather than plot-driven.

 

================================

Love, betrayal and murder in a small town….

Twelve years after her mother's murder, Shannon Bradford fears she may have helped convict an innocent man. Even worse, her prominent family may have had something to do with it. Desperate for answers, she seeks help from the one person least likely to give it. Her best friend and childhood crush, Trace Dawson. The man she sent to prison. Serving hard time for murder has left Trace angry and bitter. As far as he's concerned, digging into the past won't replace the years he's lost or erase the hell he's lived. Now that he's free, Shannon Bradford tops his list of bad memories. But he never counted on falling in love. Set in a sleepy little town during the dead of winter, this award-winning romance novel is a tale of one woman's quest for truth and a man's struggle to forgive.   "MEMORIES flooded my mind, of the quiet riot he was, of the secret crush I’d had on him, and the extraordinary friendship we’d shared so many years ago. As fast as those images came, others replaced them. I was thrust back to the crime scene, back to Mother’s corpse and the shirtless eighteen-year-old roaring obscenities while Sheriff Gray and a deputy dragged him away in handcuffs." -- Within Temptation  

Excerpt

Trace ripped the front door open, flooding the porch with light. There he stood, an unsettling combination of heaven and hell poured into a tight black T-shirt and jeans that hung below his narrow hips in a way Auntie would’ve deemed vulgar. We stared at each other for half an eternity as Ray Charles crooned, “You Don’t Know Me” from somewhere in the house. “Take a wrong turn?” he asked, ice dancing in his eyes. “I’m sorry.” His jaw worked. “Four days, two hours, and twenty-three minutes of sorry. You get my messages?” I nodded in shame. “I just…” “Got scared.” My breath escaped in a misty cloud. “I should’ve called.” “You think?” He studied me in angry silence for a time. “Lose the hood.” “What?” “The hood.” He nudged his chin. “Take it off.” He was testing me. His ‘you’re ashamed of me’ look was unmistakable. So I did as he asked. I tugged it down. “Satisfied?” Trace swung the door all the way open and his arm formed an arch. I studied the man-made entrance with caution, then ducked beneath it and went inside. He kicked the door shut. Unbuttoning my coat, I watched him lean against a wall, arms folded. It may have been my imagination, but he seemed to study me with the same lethal aloofness of a cat watching an unsuspecting mouse—right before the pounce. To steady my frayed nerves, I concentrated on the beautiful living room. He was renovating. I smelled paint, and drop cloth draped the floor in the adjacent dining room, which he’d jammed with tools and supplies. An ornate brass floor lamp stood attached to an extension cord that snaked down the hall to what I assumed was the kitchen. A cute tabletop Christmas tree, complete with tinsel, golden ornaments, and candy canes was propped on a twenty-five-inch TV. The pine floor had been polished to a high gloss. Beige paint with alabaster molding covered the walls. Stylish brass vent and outlet covers complemented the gilded vintage ceiling fan above them. I gestured. “You’ve been busy.” “Yeah. My shrink thought it’d be therapeutic.” “You do good work.” I tore my eyes from his sullen face. “It’s beautiful.” “But a far cry from the fancy digs you’re used to.” It wasn’t said maliciously. In fact, there’d been a ring of humility in his tone that had almost bordered on apologetic. “My tastes are simplistic,” I said. “I fell in love with a dilapidated Queen Anne Victorian, but I didn’t trust my instincts. I hesitated. Now it’s under contract.” I turned to him and sighed. “Speaking of which, I may have a job for you. The couple buying it needs a good carpenter. Can I give them your number?” He hitched a shoulder. “Uh, yeah. Sure.” “When do you think you’ll be finished here?” “In a few months.” He lifted a brow. “Guess I’ll be needing a real estate agent.” “Look no further.” I tried to smile, but it felt lame. What had happened at the club and my vanishing act screamed in his eyes. “So, do you have a place picked out or….” “Naw.” He paused, then in a serious tone added, “I’m leaving Temptation the second my parole year is up. Sooner if I can get a transfer.” My smile froze. He’s leaving? “Ah, th-that’s understandable. What, with everything that’s happened.” “Exactly. There’s really nothin’ keeping me from going, is there?” He paused for a beat, tilted his head, and cocked a brow. “Cholly’s got his own life. Mama and Daddy are gone. Bev’s married, and if Cole ever gets out, I’ve got to find a way to help him—but not here. Not in this town.” Fearing, dreading, I hesitated before asking, “Will you at least stay in West Virginia?” I cleared my suddenly dry throat. “Or will you move away?” “What do you think?” He gave the room a fleeting glance. “Three tenants lived here over the past twelve months. When they heard about what happened, they hauled ass. So selling this shack won’t be easy. Either way, I figure I’ll check out the West Coast. Maybe Washington state.” It felt like he’d reached across the room and punched me in the stomach.

Rescue Breathing by Zoe Norman

Title: Rescue Breathing (The Breathe Series - Book One)

Authors: Zoe Norman

Genre: Contemporary Romance

Release Date: June 11, 2014

 

Book Description

When Manhattan Psychologist Olivia Burke receives an invitation to present her research on trauma in servicemen in Seattle, she is determined to turn the business trip into the start of healing her own traumatized heart. FDNY Firefighter Owen Maxwell is an unapologetic playboy who spends his days saving lives and his nights breaking hearts. He puts his life on the line every day and is skeptical about doing the same with his heart. But when he meets Olivia, the girl with the shattered spirit–sparks fly. They share a hot weekend in Seattle and discover that they want to share so much more. Both Olivia and Owen are in need of help mending their hearts. What remains to be seen is if they can do that for each other, or if they are so damaged they go up in smoke. Rescue Breathing is the journey of two lost souls, trying to breathe new life into each other without losing themselves along the way.  

Book Excerpt

Light is hurting my eyes, and I give a groan. One eye struggles to open, and I get a full face of sunlight coming through the enormous window I obviously forgot to shut prior to passing out last night. Clearly that was because I was exhausted after Owen and I made love for most of the night. Mmmmm...last night. I look over to the space beside me and note that I’m alone in my bed. Owen left last night, leaving me to sleep by myself and ruminate about what has been going on in the last few days. I feel a bit overwhelmed by all that’s happened, and I suddenly feel an urge to think it through, start to make some sense of it all. Realistically, this can’t happen can it? I mean, yes we come from the same city, but what are the chances that he’s really going to reach out to me when we get home? And I sure as hell won’t be reaching out to him. Aside from not wanting to look like an idiot if he rejects me, my recent history does not set me up to be the one to make the first move. I’m lucky if I make any move at all. And just as I start to feel hopeless about Owen, I remember moments like last night, or in Starbucks, and the connection we clearly have. Yes, we have had a lot of sex. But is that just because we’re out of our element and we’re just doing what’s accessible? I mean, it’s not like we can learn about our regular lives when we’re not home. Maybe it’s opening a door to our being able to learn more about each other moving forward. But didn’t he say he wasn’t looking for a relationship? Yeah he did. Of course, that was before all that’s happened this weekend, before last night. And last night... Just…wow. We didn’t just fuck last night. That’s not what that was. We made love. We connected. And I swear that’s not just me being a silly girl. In fact, there were moments where he seemed downright uncomfortable, like he was feeling things he wasn’t accustomed to or didn’t want to. Why does all of this have to be so complicated? Why can’t it be like in the movies? Boy meets girl, boy seduces girl, they have sex, they get married, they have a kid, roll credits. I pull the covers over my head and groan. This is going to be a problem. And I don’t know what to do about it. I’m leaving tomorrow. Then what? I don’t want to get hurt. I’m really terrified of that. The bottom line is that if I let this guy into my life, then I risk letting him into my heart. And if I let him into my heart, I risk getting hurt. Simple. But as Charley says, I can’t spend the rest of my life wanting but not trying, hurting and not living. I think it might be time for me to take some chances, and who’s to say that taking chances has to end in my being hurt? I can take some calculated risks, right? Be careful where I step, make my intentions known, let him know about my fears, and keep an open mind. Christ, my fears… Wait until he hears that story.

Life remains simple but lonely. She doesn’t do relationships. In her line of work, it’s risky. As an escort you don’t mix business with pleasure, it’s a conflict of interest. That was always the rule—until Anthony.


As one of the new owners of Ahz, Anthony is a hot commodity. A once confirmed bachelor, Anthony’s tune has changed ten-fold since Emma came into his life. She’s the one, and he’ll do anything for her as he proved their first night together.


Their relationship races forward at breakneck speed. All the while, Emma, guards herself so that her heart is never at risk.


She now finds herself in a new line of work, beside Anthony as the voice of Los Angeles’ hottest nightclub. While Anthony is away on business, several challenges emerge that have the potential to destroy their love––their lives.


When it comes to brownie points can you ever collect enough to erase the past?

Kelly Collins lives in Colorado with her husband James. She’s the proud mother of three young adults that still manage to keep her on her toes and her head spinning. They are her greatest accomplishment.

Over her life, she has been a jack-of-all-trades between Dental assisting, teaching, and running her home staging business until finally, one day, she decided to do something she was meant to do. She wrote. And she hasn’t stopped since.

Armed with a glass of wine and her laptop, Kelly loves nothing more than to create a world that any woman would want to live in.

I’m a stay-at-home mom with four young children and one extremely supportive husband. We’ve been married for nine years and reside in Highland, Michigan.

I've dreamed of writing romance novels since I was little. After having baby #4, who may or may not have been fathered by Christian Grey, I decided it was time to pursue my dreams.

When I'm not volunteering at the schools of my children, running to various appointments, enjoying time with my friends and my book club, dating my husband, or avoiding cleaning my house, I'm writing!

I love music and believe that books and music can't exist without the other. My goal is for you to read more than a good book, but for you to have an experience!

Vengeful In Love & Reunited In Love by Nadia Lee

Revenge is sweet...

Self-made billionaire Alex Damon wants his pound of flesh from the people who ripped his family apart. When he discovers his enemies' daughter is working at his company -- and most likely spying for them--he decides to start his revenge by seducing her.

Natalie Hall is stunned at the personal interest from the CEO of her company. Vulnerable, with an already bruised heart, she wants to avoid any involvement--but she can't deny the desire he arouses in her.

...but love is sweeter...

What should've been a straightforward eye-for-an-eye starts to unravel as Natalie's unflinching loyalty and kindness begin to thaw Alex's cold intent. But caring for her is unthinkable...since he plans to use everything in his power to ruin her family and everyone else she holds dear.

 

I was given this book for an honest review.

This was an emotional story but I soooo loved it. I love books that feature interracial romance. It might not matter to some and some it might, but I think it is beautiful. This book has a great plot!  It is very well written. I enjoyed all the components. In this book there is corporate espionage, company restructuring, friendships, revenge, and some great chemistry. 

Natalie is an Asian woman who was adopted by a rich, conservative white political family. She knows nothing about her heritage or her birth parents. Her mother is so cruel to her and doesn't make no beans about it. Her younger sister and her has no kind of sisterly bond. Her father, the politician, is non-caring and non-present.

Alex Damon is a self made billionaire and is looking for revenge on the people who ripped his family apart. So when he finds out that  Natalie is the daughter of his enemies and that she is working in his company he decides to take his revenge by seducing her. I bet you're interested? What are you waiting on! I highly recommend this book!

A temporary reunion...

Newly jobless and adrift, former investment banker Kerri Wilson travels to Virginia to see her best friend and regroup, only to run into billionaire playboy Ethan Lloyd. It's been years since she's snuck out of his bed after the most amazing sex of her life, and he's so not her type--she likes them tall, dark andmanageable. But he's too hot to resist, and she succumbs to another sizzling, no-strings-attached (or so she thinks) night.

Unwilling to let her go this time, Ethan makes a simple proposition: a job, a place to stay, and an exclusive affair that will end when either of them finds someone else. But with her dark, painful past catching up to her, Kerri may have to bolt again--even though her heart is telling her to stay. And Ethan's not giving her up without fighting to make their "temporary" arrangement something far more permanent... 

I was given this book for an honest review.

I am loving this series! Kerri Wilson finds herself jobless and lost. She decides to visit her best friend in Virginia. She thought her luck was total crap when she runs into billionaire playboy Ethan Lloyd. Y'all these two had some explosive sex and Kerri snuck out on him. Kerri and Ethan are best friends to Alex and Natalie! I am totally hooked on this series! If you like some hot and spicey scenes and a good story I recommend you read this series.
