Dark Desires 1 ~ Touched By You~ By Emily Jane Trent

Another cliff hanger people! This short story is not very long. It is the first part of another series that gives you just a taste to wet your whistle, and leave you hanging at the end. 

This story showed we have Natalie and Trent, who meet up four years ago for a little elicited fun at a concert. Fast forward 4 years and Natalie has landed a dream scholarship to a dream design school in NYC. She gets a room to rent from a former model and all her dreams are coming true. That is until she bumps into Trent. The man who gave her and incredible orgasm at a concert four years ago and then disappeared. She has held this man to such high standards that no man can ever compare. When she meets him she is shocked and excite. Trent goes out of his way to whoa Natalie, really wining and dining her. Until Natalie realizes, after giving up her virginity to him, that he has been manipulating her life to lead her back to  him.

The characters are kind of week, and you definitely get the sense that it cheesy romantics, but under it all Trent is supposed to be a dormant who likes rough. Sex, while Natalie is niece and innocent in so many ways. The story is kind of slow, and makes you hope that the other parts of this series will pick up the pace. 

It not a bad read, if you need something to read to kill and hour or so of your time.

Rope Burn ~ The Boot Knockers Ranch~ By Em Petrova

Rope Burn  ~ The Boot Knockers Ranch~ By Em Petrova

 

Last night I was able to finish Rope Burn book 5 in the Boot Knocker Ranch Series by Em Petrova. I had been waiting for the Dom from Down Under to get his story and this book did not disappoint. Every time I grab one of these books I wish I was able to go to this Texas ranch where all the men are Sex Therapists. I have never read a cowboy series before this one, but I’m no understanding the fascination with these type of men. They are strong, and masculine and not afraid of hard work. Tabbart and Stowe come at each other from such different areas, but having a man truly know what a women needs is so hot!

These two main characters are well developed and draw you into their world. I love the idea of an Aussie Cowboy, who wields a whip and loves to dominate women. You have a strong independent woman who is so tired of always watching what she does and worries about how others will perceive her because of her fame. As a woman who controls so much in her life, I can understand the idea behind letting go, giving that control to someone else. This book did not disappoint.

While this is book 5 of the series, it is definitely a stand along book as well. I strongly encourage you to start at the beginning of this amazing series with Pushin’ Buttons. Now I’ve gotta go grab the next book in this amazing series , book 6 just game out not to long ago and is calling my name.
