HOTTER WITH A POLE by Delilah Devlin

This book is a novella, so I was expecting the wham bam sex, and saying the "L" word being said early in the book. Maybe it's because I've read a good bit of erotic romance as well as BDSM books that I realized that the author might not really have a working knowledge of the BDSM world.

When your heart is stuck in the wrong gear, a quick fix isn't going to cut it.

When Noah buys a classic '68 Camaro from a fellow firefighter's widow, he hopes it will ease some of the grief crushing his heart.

But the grinding noise under the car's hood sends him straight to a mechanic. Something about the burly, imposing Hoyt sparks Noah's interest, and it's not just Hoyt's ice-blue eyes and bad-boy biker looks. It's the mutual interest they have--Club LaForge.

After losing his partner to cancer a year ago, Hoyt never thought he'd feel the same kind of rush with another man. But his reaction to Noah throbs deep in his body like the rumble of his Harley.

LaForge seems like the perfect place to meet and work off some sorrow, to feel alive again. But the flood of desire quickly gets hot enough to melt their emotional barriers into unexpected connections.

Connections Hoyt isn't sure he's ready for...especially since history has a scary way of repeating itself.

This book was not what I expected when I read the description.  This story felt as if the author heard about BDSM and did not do much research on it and wrote this story.  The story was not also very well thought out.

Almost everyone in the Station was involved in Club LaForge.  That means that the men were accustom to seeing gay couples going at it, and in some cases, some even took part.  So the main reason why Noah wanted to keep his relationship quiet about Hoyt did not feel right with me.

The author also portrayed Hoyt as this silent, broody type, but I did not get that from him.  The description of emotions felt off and I could not connect with any of the characters.

I was promised steamy, hot sex scenes and quite honestly, I could not picture the positions that the author put her characters into.  One minute they were in this position, then they were in another one, and so on and so forth until they both climax.  I was mostly left confused on what had happened and that's not a good thing when it comes to sex scenes.

With a little more time and effort, this book would have been awesome.  It had the bones of an excellent novella, but it just fell flat to me.  I know every author, at one time or another may feel pressured by a deadline, I really hope this is the case for this one.


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...

THE HIGHLAND HENCHMAN by Amy Jarecki

After reading "The Angel and the Warrior" I really needed a book to pick me up and I am so glad that this book did just the trick.  The only thing that irked me was that the heroine in this book upset me greatly. Needing royal assistance, Baron Ross issued a tournament to enchant the Highlanders to leave their land and come to the Lowlands to take part.  What he really wanted was for the Highlanders to fight a dangerous battle that would get most of them killed. After the tournament the Highland Lairds choose instead to entrust their best warriors to stay and fight. This was not exactly what Baron Ross wanted but he knew that he could not change their mind so he accepted. Bran MacLeod was one of the warriors that was left behind, and even though he did not like it, he knew that he can never go against his Laird.  It did not help matters that their was a dangerous instant attraction between him and the baron's last daughter.  Bran knows that getting involved ...
