Book Review: Please, Sir

Image
  My flesh bends to his every whim Everything I have is his to use Fleeing to Bluebell is my chance at a clean break. With a new teaching job and gig as the JV cheer coach, I'm excited to start over but more importantly, moving puts distance between my toxic, gaslighting parents and abusive ex. Was I expecting to meet a smoking-hot cowboy who didn’t hesitate to suck a splinter from my palm my first day in town? Definitely not, and of course, he’s off-limits. So imagine my surprise when I'm on my knees, my wrists bound, his leather painting my skin with crimson welts. My voice, weak and thin, desperately begging, “ Please, Sir ,” as my eyes roll back with euphoria. Then the door crashes wide open, and standing there slack-jawed is the only student I’ve formed a bond with since I moved here, staring at me like she’s seen a ghost as I’m bound and begging… For her father. My Review This book starts out sweet but eventually turns into one heck of a spicy read! I loved it a lot. The ...

Book Review: Ice Rivals

Image
  I once fell in love with two people. I was lucky enough they fell in love with me too. Chance Kellerman was the broken boy whose father convinced him he was worthless, and needed to hide his shameful desires. We became friends first, then brothers when we played hockey for the same team. But it was Presley King who brought us even closer. With her we became more. She set us on fire, and we had everything we’d ever wanted. Then she left us. Four years later, Chance and I are playing on rival teams when Presley appears on the Jumbotron. Our lives look a lot different than they did in college, and the odds seem stacked against us, but I’m positive we’ve been thrown back together for a reason. Convincing them of the same won’t be easy, especially when Presley’s job finds out about our unconventional relationship. I’m prepared to fight for us, until one moment on the ice changes everything. I thought fate brought us together, but maybe we’re only destined to lose it all. My Review I a...

What more could you expect when two disco devils become obsessed with a not-so-innocent angel? My Review Dante and Kat are the Disco Devils. They demand respect and grab all the attention of everyone in the room. Even, I felt the magnetic draw they have. I love how close Kat and Dante are with each other. Dante calling Kat "Kitty Kat" is sweet but shows his love for her as well.  When you bring in Dot, the dynamics change and for the better. Dot seemed so innocent, but she is a wildcard. Who knew under those angel wings that she was a firecracker. If you mess with one of these three, you better be ready to face the other two.  While she is not part of the group rela...
