Getting Naked At The Hilton

Getting Naked At The Hilton/Dee Dawning/eXtasy Books/ebook/311 pages.

When Scott first meets Rachel he is feeling mad because a girl called Carol has stood him up. However, the sparks that fly between them as he dances with this incredibly sexy lady soon makes him forget the other girl. Rachel is as attracted to Scott as he is to her, but she has been badly treated by her former lover and she needs to put Scott to the test. Despite the lust they both feel, Rachel makes Scott get naked in her room in the Hilton while banning him from touching her as they talk and get to know one another. Naturally, this can’t last long and they indulge in the first of their passionate love making scenes.

Rachel is of mixed blood and her agent Lester hurt her when he ditched her for her white girl friend and partner in their singing act. When Lester sees Rachel with Scott he wants her back and promises a big contract. Scott wants Rachel to marry him even though they’ve only known each other a few days, but she thinks it best to wait until after the new contract has finished. Desperate not to lose her, Scott is determined to make her and Chloe famous. Lester isn’t going to take this quietly but his spite may rebound on him. This book has a happy ever after ending, but not quite what you would expect in the general run of things!

This is an extremely sexy book. Well written and amusing at times in its own way, this is a book for all those who love to read about sex. I give the book five red roses but warn it is for readers over eighteen and those who like erotica. Linda

Mis-Staked

Mis-Staked/J Morgan/Champagne Books/ebooks/358 pages

This fantastic book is – according to him! – written by Stud L. Monkey and the tone is irreverent and extremely funny. Breathred owns the chimp, which talks and speaks of his master with affectionate contempt. At the beginning of the book, Breathred seems to be one of those unfortunate souls who can never do anything right. Perhaps because of his love for comic books, Breathred has decided to become a vampire slayer and has advertised to that effect. His first job leaves him out of pocket and with egg on his face. However, his girl friend Luna, with whom he has never yet got past kissing, recommends him for a job and they all team up to go looking for the Mother Vampire’s tomb – a high priestess of the Vampires and very dangerous. The legend says that if the Mother ever returns from the grave, she will wreak havoc on the world – but hey, who believes legends?

Leopold is a Vampire of about three hundred years old. He wants a sacrifice to bring back the Mother, because he hopes to take her power and rule the world despite being warned off by a senior Vamp. Breathred is meant to be the sacrifice, because he is a pure soul and very rare in this world. However, the first attempt to capture Breathred goes wrong, because he suddenly develops real Vampire slaying techniques and manages with Luna and Stud’s help to kill the two Vamps sent to get him. Nothing daunted, the friends join up with the team to discover Mother Vampire’s tomb. There are many mysteries in this story, not least – who or what lies in Breathred’s past?

This extremely talented author goes into the kind of detail few others dare and brings tears to your eyes with his wicked humour – ranging from Breathred’s first awareness that he would like to do more than kiss his girlfriend to the chimp being mistaken for a filmstar. I loved the humour and feel it would make a great film. Be sure not to miss reading this brilliantly funny book! Besides the humour there is a terrific mystery to solve.

I am not sure that America appreciates yet the treasure it has in comic genius J. Morgan, but it will!

This book deserves a bouquet of red roses, Linda.

A book that has a little something for everyone. A compilation of several short stories that are very hot. Each story is stand alone and can be read in any order.

Lady of the Moon is the first story and is fun to read with all the different types of paranormal characters. Dragons and other paranormal aspects make it a truly interesting read.

Other stories are a little dark but still hold the readers interest. Whatever your taste in erotica this book will have what you want.

A few of the stories I would have liked to see a more conclusive ending. I would have preferred to learn how the characters resolve their predicaments and answer the questions that still remain.

I give this one 3-1/2 red roses.

The Unaccomplished Lady Eleanor

THE UNACCOMPLISHED LADY ELEANOR

This story begins in Nottingham in May 1815, Lady Eleanor Myres has been made very miserable by the appearance of her new stepmother Hester at the family home, Merryoaks.
Eleanor and her father had been very close for as long as she could remember, her mother having died when Eleanor was but eleven years old. They had shared poetry together, debated on the politics of the time and ridden together putting, all the less important details such as young ladies accomplishments, fashionable clothes and the more gentle arts taught to young ladies, to the back of their minds. But to Eleanor her life had been perfect, until her dour stepmother had moved into their home and spoilt everything. She had informed Eleanor that with a total lack of any of the accomplishments a young lady would need to find a husband she would likely be an old maid. To which Eleanor had replied that she was quite happy to remain unmarried and live at Merryoaks, Hester was not impressed with her answer and stated that she could not live with them forever.
So Eleanor was in a coach on her way to stay with her Godmother Lady Ormiston in Whitlock Castle, a grey and depressing place just a few miles from London.. Banished from her beloved Merryoaks to learn to be a lady ready to married off to any suitor that could be found for her, whether she liked him or not, the thought made her shiver.
The little that Eleanor could remember of her Godmother was not hopeful; it was of a booming voice and a terrifying elderly and stern lady. At last they had arrived and the coach drew to a shuddering halt, Eleanor peered out of the window to see the enormous illuminated castle cold and eerie surrounded by mist, the sight made her shiver and her heart sunk. Eleanor thought of the last time she had stayed at the castle, it had been six years before, when she was thirteen; she had broken her ankle when falling from a tree. Lady Ormiston had been exasperated with her tomboyish behaviour and had warned her father that he should take a stern hand with his daughter if she was ever to become a lady. After that stay they had not visited the Castle again much to her great relief. Eleanor’s heart sunk even lower and she felt her body chill, if only she could turn around and go home.
Standing in the great hall she was given directions to find her room, by Giles the stern looking butler. Staring around at the stately forbidding hall Eleanor wanted to run away, but to where? She had not been attending to the directions given to her so when Giles walked away with his last words ringing in her ears, Lady Orminston would expect her in the Drawing room in half an hour, she almost panicked, but pulling herself together she started forward to try and find her room wishing that she had paid more attention to Giles instructions. When she at last found her way she was pleasantly surprised in the room she had been given it was newly decorated light and airy, perhaps it wouldn’t be so bad here for a while after all. But this lightening of her spirits was not to last for long, on the way back to finding the Drawing room she some how managed bump into a very rude young man who it turned out to be is her Godmother’s nephew. He laughs at her as her Godmother berates her for being so clumsy. Eleanor hopes that she doesn’t have to see much of this young man, but as he lives at the castle that is a vain hope.
Things are to go from bad to worse as her Godmother embarrasses her in front of other guests in the evening. Pulling not only her old outdated clothes to pieces but also her character, Eleanor is very lonely and desperately longs to go home to Merryoaks.
Can Eleanor possibly find happiness at the dreadful castle and with the people who are living or staying there, will she be married off to the first man to ask for her hand, whoever he is? I have really enjoyed this unusual regency romance with some very surprising events and wholeheartedly recommend it to all regency lovers.
