Wounded Beast (Gypsy Heroes, #2)

Wounded Beast (Gypsy Heroes, #2)
By Georgia Le Carre

SUMMARY
She wanted me. I wanted the pain to go away...
Ella 

The first time I met Dominic his magnetic arrogance took my breath away. He was everything I'd never expected to have. A drop dead gorgeous Alpha bad boy.
But it was my job that led me into his path and he hit me like a freight train that I never saw coming. Suddenly this complicated man beast has erased the staleness of my terribly dull life and replaced it with a lust for the excitement, danger and knowledge he brings to my life.
He's taken me to places emotionally and sexually unimaginable and I'm deliciously addicted.
Everything is perfect, well almost. Except there's the parts of him that I cannot reach . The parts he keeps locked away...

Dominic 
I wasn't looking for anything other than meaningless sex. But Ella had something that fascinated and intrigued me. From the moment we locked eyes she got my attention.
Fuck it. I should have just walked away, but I didn't. She thinks she can fix the pain. Save me.
But not even her incredible magic can conjour up a potion to remedy that. Or can it?
 

REVIEW
Great read again. Dom wasn't the brother I liked the best, so I wasn't sure I would like his story. He really is a wounded beast. His story is tragic and sad. It is very strange how Ella fits into to the story. I like her a great deal. She is fun and upfront. Ella falls hard for the gorgeous man he is HOT! and he is HOT in the sack! It must run in the family. I like her because she is not afraid to take what she wants and doesn't hold back. Women should be able to express their sexual wants and needs without judgment just like a man does. Just because you like sex doesn't make you a whore. 

It was great to get a cameo of Jake and Lily. I love those two. We get to see again how much Jake takes care of his family. I really admire his character. 

This one runs parallel to Jake and Lily, where the girl thinks she is doing the noble just thing and it all turns out to be wrong and corrupt. That the people you think are bad really are not in the slightest. Tax evasion is on the table this time with Ella as the enforcer. 

It does have a twist and I kinda guessed it but I didn't find out till the end I was correct. 

Great sexy read! Enjoy! off to the third installment.

SUMMARY

If only he hadn't wrapped his strong hand around my wrist and caused me to look into those wickedly intoxicating eyes. But he did.
Now I can't get him out of my head.

Which is just as well...

REVIEW
Four Stars

Well read my way through the Eden family. Shane was the one brother I was looking forward to, but as I read his story he turned out to be a real jackass at times. 

Shane is the youngest brother and a total man whore. He sees it, he takes it. He is hot as hell and makes the ladies feel good. He sees Snow and has to have her damn the consequences. He sets it up to sleep with her for the weekend and that's it, but as they say crap happens. I didn't like how he treated Snow at times, he made me upset with some comments. He redeemed himself and proved to be as manipulative as his brother Jake.

Snow is a complicated woman. She got herself in a terrible situation and was abused beyond words. I am surprised she rallied as well as she did. I liked her strength, but she was very kind hearted and at times I wanted to slap her for being so naive about people. Her mom is a terrible person and Lenny is a disgusting pig. Wish Lenny could have met a untimely end. Glad she got her justice in the end.

Good sexy read, but Jake's story was the best! Enjoy

Sexy Beast (Gypsy Heroes, #1)

Sexy Beast (Gypsy Heroes, #1)
By Georgia Le Carre

SUMMARY
Layla Eden
He's forbidden and everything I should loathe in a man. Arrogant, foul-mouthed, inked, a bare-knuckle fighter, thinks he’s God’s gift to women, and yet … one look into his magnetic eyes and I am doing crazy things I've never imagined doing.

I tell myself just one taste — what harm can it do?

But what happens if one taste is not enough…

Billy Joe Pilkington
She's the hottest girl I know, and I've been lusting for her since I was old enough to fuck, but she's also a spoiled little fucking princess who swoons about the place like she's something special.

She wasn't so high and mighty after her first lesson on my knees.

Well I’ve got news for her — I'm gonna kick down her walls, strip away the façade, and take what I want. And this time I'll keep what's mine...
 

REVIEW
Not sure how I feel about this one. It had a different angle then the others I have read by this author. We get the forbidden love aspect but then it morphs into something quite different.

Layla and BJ get together after the can't control their attraction and kinda humiliate each other. She doesn't want to tell her family, it gets all twisted then bam it is out there and bam she is pregnant. I don't remember ever reading when they had sex that they didn't use birth control, but whatever. There was no warning to the reader that she was it just was thrown out there. To me there was just something missing etween them, they didn't light my fire with their chemistry and interactions. I just couldn't really buy into them as a couple. Then there was that incident on their honeymoon, stupid and hurtful to each other but they do it anyway.

Then there is a health issue. And all the emotions that go along with her choice come out. The author does a great job expressing the whole range and I liked that part. Every opinion that would possible be out there was addressed. I know what happened to her could happen and has happened, but it was a stretch for me. I know not my call and the author does state at the end that the opposite happens more regularly. So I have to pull back my judgement there.

It is ok...not a bad read, but not as fantastic and spell binding as what I have read by this author previously. I will keep reading the series. Enjoy!

Crystal Jake: The Eden Trilogy Box Set (Eden, #1-3)

Crystal Jake: The Eden Trilogy Box Set (Eden, #1-3)
By Georgia Le Carre

SUMMARY

Book 1
Haunted by memories of her brother’s death, and searching for answers,Lily Hart embarks on a career that takes her into a seedy underworld, where she is exposed to wealth, greed, lust and the reign of gorgeous, powerful, and dangerous men—one man in particular wreaks havoc on her emotions.

At thirty Jake Eden has everything: looks to die for, money, power and a never-ending line of twisted, fucked-up women willing to do anything to get with him. Love? Love was for pussies…until a woman with the stage name of ‘Jewel’ arrives on the scene. She alone is different from all the others.

Oozing pure, unadulterated sex, strong, intelligent and independent, she is everything he should stay away from, but she makes him itch to tame her and keep her for himself.
Her lure is addictive and undeniable and soon he is hooked.
But when the line between betrayal and loyalty is put to test…
Will love be stronger than revenge?

Book 2

Lily: It wasn't supposed to be like this- I came ready, determined, but nothing could have prepared me for Jake Eden.

Engulfed in his power, his lust and his primal need for me, I've become ever more helpless in his hands. I love the way he touches me, holds me, protects me. I feel alive in ways I cannot explain. I know I am giving my body to a criminal...week after week, but I can't stop.
I'm addicted.
He has no idea.
It's all wrong, but I'll stay with my plan until I figure out a way around the conflict I'm facing...

Jake: I never knew that looks could blindside a man the way Lily Hart's beauty did me. When our eyes collided that first time, the connection was instant, I knew, that she was like no other. She was something special, uniquely different.
But I've discovered since then that there is a secretive side to her, and now I fear deception stalks her eyes.

I know I must keep my distance, but she keeps persisting that I have her heart, so how can I push her away when all I want to do is tie her down and make her mine?

Book 3

Lily: I've been such a fool. Such a fool. He saw me coming and tied me up in knots. And I let him. After Vegas, my heart and mind have been thrown into complete disarray. Is it really possible that what we had— all that blazing, unquenchable passion—was just an illusion?
I know I've lost his trust, but somehow I must find a way to repair the damage I have caused and find my way back to his heart.

I have to make it right… whatever it takes.

Jake: She is my wife now, but I know she's not mine. Not really. Not properly. Not the way I want. You see, I want it all. Every last bit of her: heart, mind, body and soul.
And I'm prepared to move heaven and earth to make that happen.

This is my mission and my promise.

Watch me make her mine or die trying...
 

REVIEW
Leaning towards a 4.5 star rating.

Another win from this author....damn this book if freaking HOT! I need a shower and I need to find my hubby!

Wow what a twisty as heck book! Glad I could read this in one shot, if I had to read and wait then wait again I would have gone more insane then people tell me I am now. 

It is hard to talk about the book without spoiling it. 

Lily is one messed up woman. She has lots of secrets and tragedy in her life. She comes the distance in this book from a wrecked person to one that is happy and strong. She is interesting and hard to figure out at times.

Jake is freaking HOT, freaking A! He even has a tattoo on his man part! Woah! Yeah, that is what I said when I read that too. He is an interesting character and I underestimated him in so many ways. I can't say anymore or I will give it all away.

The sex us off the chain.....way off the chain. It is not safe to read this at work and you need to be close to something that will help you out after you read it, if you know what I mean. 

The only part I didn't like was the big reveal and it kinda seemed a ad in realistic. That is why I gave it 4, well more like a 4.5.

Great read, hot as hell! I am off to the other books on the series! Enjoy!

You Don't Own Me: A Bad Boy Mafia Romance(The Russian Don Book 1)

You Don't Own Me: A Bad Boy Mafia Romance(The Russian Don Book 1)
By Georgia Le Carre

SUMMARY
Dahlia 'You Don't Own Me.'  Zane 'In my world I own everything.'
Zane 
I'm everything a mother prays her daughter will never come across.
Manwhore, Mafia boss and ruthless killer.
I've never met a woman who could hold my attention longer than it took to satisfy my c**k.
Until Dahlia Fury.
She alone is different. She walked into my world, the way a lamb strays into the path of a wolf, completely defenseless.
She made me hard the moment our eyes locked. I had to have her. But I never imagined taking her would be like popping a powerful drug. One I'd crave over and over.
The heat between us is blazing, like nothing I've experienced before, and every time I see her I want to devour her inch by inch.
I defined the terms of our arrangement (one month), but each time I brand her, like a damned addict I need another fix ...
-
Dahlia
'You can do it. It's just a simple Swedish massage,' my friend pleaded. I should have listened to my inner voice. I shouldn't have gone, but I didn't, and ended up in a room alone with the epitome of an Alpha male, a sexy powerful Mafia boss with eyes cold enough to freeze my blood.
He took hold of my body in the most shockingly possessive way. He made me lose control. I ran from him as if all the devils in hell were hot on my heels, but he never left my mind.  
Then, something unthinkable happens and the cold-hearted predator is the only one who can help. He agrees to help, but ... nothing is for free.
Now I roam around his London mansion waiting for him to summon me, touch me, arouse me, and satisfy me.  
The way only my Russian Man Beast can...

REVIEW
5 BIG SEXY STARS

arghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't believe I have to wait to see what is going to happen. I was duped into how long this book was when I bought it. It said 320 pages.....LIARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that darn page count included the bonus book included....I DON"T WANT A BONUS BOOK!!!! I WANT THE ENDING!!!! Ok sorry the inner drama queen in me is coming out. I know deep breaths......

This book is sooooo good!! I could not put it down. Zane is one hot MFer!!! HOT!! He is also a HUGE jackass!! He says a lot of stuff that is very vulgar and mean but you can tell it is just a cover up for how he really feels. He can't afford to have feelings and care about someone in his line of work. He is extremely manipulative for sure!!! But dang is he HOT!! 

and dang is the sex even HOTTER!!! Panty dripping HOT!!! YIKES shower inducing damn!!! Off the chart chemistry between these two.

Dahlia, I like her. She really loves her family and will do anything to help them. She is sweet and when given a credit card to spend money she spends it on the people in the mansion that have taken care of her or she buys shoes for her roommate. Dahlia takes things in stride, but she is falling fast for Zane and I am worried about her. She really doesn't want to fall in love and she does voice her displeasure with Zane, but heck if he gave it to me like he gives it to her I would just give in too, so I cannot blame her at all!!! 

LOVED it will be reading the next even though I am a tad put out by the length I am suckered it 100% I am also going to check out her other stuff. I am on the hook until May 6th.... Oh joy!!
