A TOUCH OF PASSION by Bronwen Evans

I was so excited to receive this book. I read the first two books in the series, and I loved them and this book was no different.

Being kidnapped and sold to harem is more than the high spirited and independent Lady Portia Flagstaff can take. She loves excitement and danger but this, this was too much.

She has to find a way to escape, but what can she do? She is only one woman, up against hundreds of guards. Her only hope is in Grayson Devlin, Viscount Blackwood. A man who despises her reckless ways, but sets her heart on fire.

After losing his entire family when he was young, Greyson Devlin, also lost his best friend in the war. He promised his best friend, as he was dying, that he would look after his sister.

Having her abducted and sold in to slavery is not exactly a good way of keeping his promise. Enraged, Greyson sailed off as soon as he learned about her kidnapping and miraculously, he was able to save her.

Now in order to protect her reputation, he must marry her; which is the last thing he can possible want. To make matters worse, it seems as if Portia was targeted because of him. Someone wants to frame him and his friends for a crime their father's had committed.

Not only does he have to find the culprit who is out to frame them, Greyson also has to convince Portia to marry him. Not really understanding why she refuses him, since it seems as if she wanted to marry him for years, but she has the ridiculous notion of marrying for love.

Would Portia agree to marry Greyson without gaining his love? Would Greyson learn to accept Portia's independent nature? Find out in the third installment of The Disgraced Lords Series, A Touch of Passion.

+Bronwen Evans I loved, loved, LOVED, this book. I enjoyed the passion that Portia had to life. She did not want to leave this earth with any regrets, but that attitude is what made her such an easy target to kidnap as well.

Greyson on the other hand, likes Portia, but denies himself (and by extension her) from claiming what he wants. In my opinion, Greyson needs to get over himself. He just thought that Portia would change her ways to please him and that she would except his marriage proposal.

In a nutshell, he wanted her to change who she was to please him. And what does he have to give up? Absolutely nothing. How is that fair? He does not want to proclaim his love to her, but she is not free to love anyone else. Greyson was really selfish and pigheaded and deserved Portia leaving him.

Ah, you're wondering about the leaving part right? Besides the mystery, the writing was amazing in the story and the story quite compelling. I want to know who's out to get them for something their fathers did? I want the other book in the series to come out already, but it's coming out in mid 2015. No set date yet, bummer.

I strongly advice that you read this book, BUT you have to read the first two books to fully grasp what's going on.

HAPPY READING!

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face. Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can. What makes this situation worse is that the business is failing and the owner is so set in his ways that he refuses to change anything to fix it. Frustrated with the way things were, hel...

MY CURVY VALENTINE by Sugar Jamison

This book is tied with Gentlemen Prefers Curves for the best book in this series. Maggie is such a beautiful person, but she is also clueless.

Deciding to quit her high paying job as a bio-medical engineer and to follow her fashion dreams by working in a clothing store that caters to the full figured woman like herself. You might think that Maggie Calhoun must be out of her mind, especially since this all came about with her parents divorce. And you would be right, Maggie is out of her mind.

WICKED BOND by Sawyer Bennett

Finally, we come to Bridger's story and I must admit, it was not what I was expecting. Bridger Payne is a walking enigma that no one can quite figure out. Even his best friend don't know the full story of where Bridger came from. In the Silo, Many want him but not can have him, well not the real him anyway. That's because Bridger lives with so much pain, a pain he has no reason to get rid of since the pain is what makes him survive. If you've read the books from the series you would know Bridger. He helped each and every one of my lovable guys to get their head out their arse and go after their women. You would think that a man that gives such good advice would also take his own preaching, but no such luck. Bridger more believes in happily ever after for everyone other than him. In his mind, he's too f*cked up to be helped and he's learned to accept that, but then Maggie was unexpectedly dumped in his care and Bridger found emotion he's neve...
