Cain Murphy is as big and bad as they come. After serving in the Marines, he’s returned home to Wyoming and now works as head of security at the exclusive sex club, The Wicked Horse. His job is to protect not only the patrons, but to zealously guard the secret existence of the club itself.

Sloane Preston is all about discovering secrets. As an undercover reporter, she’s determined to reveal the truth behind the facade of The Wicked Horse and expose it for all the world to see. She just didn’t count on her pathway into the club coming at the hands of one gorgeously scarred and bad ass bouncer who manages to easily possess her body and soul.

While Cain’s not looking for anyone to catch his eye, Sloane did it all the same, and he’s not bemoaning the fact that she’s as wickedly kinky as he is. As both get caught up in the sinful fantasies that only The Wicked Horse can create, secrets and loyalties will be tested and hearts will risk being broken.

**Warning: this book has sex in it. Lots of sex. Dirty sex. The Wicked Horse Series is a bit different than what Sawyer Bennett normally writes. While you’ll still enjoy fabulous characters, a suspenseful story, some witty banter and an epic romance, there’s just
… a lot of sex. You’ve been warned.



We all remember Cain from the first book. He's the head of security for Woolfe & Bridger's Bar THE WICKED HORSE - and their accompanying sex-club THE SILO.



He also does special sexual fantasy-packages for members of the club.


He's a really hot former Marine with a scarred face....which does not send the ladies running. He could take one or more of them home every night. And he does, often. But he doesn't partake of the bar or club visitors while working.
And during working hours at the bar he notices her.
A pretty blonde.
Eye-flirting with him every time he comes into the bar.

Sloane.
She's new to town.
She's a Washington, D.C. reporter.
Reporting about dirty politicians mostly.
And a tip landed her in THE WICKED HORSE. The guy said there's a sex club attached and that Governor Hayes is right in the middle of it.
We of course know from the first book, that he's the father of Callie, and doesn't have anything to do with the Club.
Sloane wants to get close to Cain to find out enough for a good story.

But the more she gets to know him, and with every one of those amazing orgasms he gives her, she's not so sure anymore why she came to Wyoming in the first place.



But even if she wanted to stop working on her story - her boss wouldn't let her.....
 
WHAT WiLL HAPPEN TO SLOANE & CAIN????
WiLL THE TWO OF THEM GET THEiR HEA?
OR WiLL HER SECRETS BE TOO MUCH FOR CAiN?
WiLL EVERBODY SURViVE???


I'm not telling you that of course...

I really loved Cain's story.
He's this very sexual, former soldier. All kinky and hot and scarred - a total ladies man.
And that's how he always wanted it - but now that he met Sloane - everything he always thought he wanted, doesn't seem so great anymore.
Could this tough guy become a one-woman-man over night???
It's really adorable to see Cain fall for Sloane.
But there's always her being a reporter hanging in the background, that makes us feel sorry for Cain, and for Sloane too, because we know that it won't be nice, once Cain finds out....

I really enjoyed the story - lots of extremely erotic and funny and cute and sad moments!!!
I couldn't put it down!

WICKED LUST - was a really wickedly beautiful erotic Romance!
Check your bank statements - save some money! You'll so want to be a member of The Silo too☺

Book #3 will be about Rand (we met him before - and in WICKED LUST he might have joined in some sexing! He'll fall for the kinky widow Catherine!) - after that we'll hopefully finally get Bridger's book -it will be soooo much fun to watch him fall for someone...maybe, if I have any say in it - 2 someones ☺☺

Sexy cowboy?  ☑
Exclusive sex club?  ☑
Sexy cowboy member of  sex club?  ☑

Oh yeah, back to The Silo we go!


Timbeeeerrrrrrrrr!!! Hear that sound?  That's the sound of Cain falling for Sloane - and he falls hard!

He is a mountain of a man - ex military, kinky, sexy and scarred - ladies love the scars!  Loves the perks of the job at The Silo... until Sloane.

Right from the get go you could feel the pull, the sexual chemistry between Cain and Sloane,  and you could feel Cain's attraction to Sloane, more than sex, just ... more.

Of course we can't have things going smoothly, and when a huge roadblock is thrown up between our lovelies, I knew it was going to take some getting over.

Getting over (or under!) each other or their issues had me running the whole gamut of emotions.  I was angry, hurt, sad for our couple.  They need to get things right, they just do!

Wicked Lust is a sexy, sexy book that starts with a bang and takes us on one heck of a ride.... now can't wait for Logan or Rand's stories, but especially Bridger's.  Me thinks it is going to take quite a lady.. or man.. or both... to bring him to his knees, and I can't wait!

✪ The Heat Is On (Boys of Summer #4) ✪ Katie Rose ✪




Perfect for readers of Joanna Blake and Sawyer Bennett, hailed as “charming, sexy, and smart” by Lauren Layne, the Boys of Summer series from award-winning author Katie Rose heats up as a homegrown baseball star returns to snag the one that got away.

When veteran catcher Connor Jackson gets traded to the New Jersey Sonics, he welcomes the opportunity to possibly cap his career with a World Series ring in his home state. But there
’s another reason Connor is glad things have come full circle. In pursuit of hardball glory, he left behind his college sweetheart, the one girl he could never forget. Seeing her again stirs up long-lost desires . . . and this time, he’s determined not to strike out.

A divorced mother of four, Tracy Coleman no longer aspires to gossip-mag glam
—but she’ll make an exception for a date with Connor. Their chemistry is hotter than ever, and being alone with him is more seductive than she anticipated. Who could blame her for leaving out a little detail like the kids? Now all she has to do is come clean and convince the man of her dreams that they—Connor, Tracy, and her children—have a future together.

Second chance romance? ☑
Sexy baseball star? ☑

I have loved the previous books in the Boys of Summer series, so it was a no brainer to read The Heat Is On.

Connor Jackson is a pro-baller in the twilight of his career, and is back in his home town - and back near the one that got away. 

Tracy Coleman, single mum with 4 young kids is disillusioned with love, with men.  But she has never stopped loving Connor, even though it has been years apart and completely different worlds.

There was still that spark, that connection when they meet up, and you just want them to have their happy!  But when Tracy hides things from Connor, you just know that it is going to be struggle.

I think Connor is my favourite bad boy to date (and that's saying a lot as they are all fabulous!)  He is determined, he is strong, he is sexy as hell, and he steps up to the plate when it matters the most.

What woman wouldn't want him??

I got a little frustrated with Tracy at times.  When she wouldn't tell Connor about her kids, but then getting a bit annoyed when he finds out.  I got her being protective of her kids - a good mumma bear - but the push and pull with Connor, gah!  But that made me swoon for him just a little bit more, that he didn't run for the hills.

But seeing Tracy and Connor come together is worth all the gah! moments.  To see them open up, to become more. Plus, the steam factor when things start to heat up.... smexy!

The banter between Connor and his teammates is wonderful. Such jokers, but so deep at times.

I read The Heat Is On in one sitting, and I was disappointed when I got to the final page.  Ms Rose keeps me wanting more each and every time I read.

I hope we get many, many more Boys of Summer books - because, you know, those team rosters are always changing so there is always going to be fresh meat.. I mean material... to write about.

✿ Secret Confessions: Down and Dusty ✿ Casey ✿ Rachael Johns ✿




They say that no one has secrets in a small town—these women prove them wrong.
Eight brand-new stories from some of Australia's hottest writers in Australia's hottest genre. From the bar stools of the local pub to the wide open plains of the biggest stations in the world, these tales travel the dusty roads to the heart of Australia and the women who understand how to work hard—and play even harder.
In the latest in the wildly successful Secret Confessions series from Escape Publishing, the women of Down & Dusty invite you into their lives—and their bedrooms.
Casey Cooper left her husband and the small town of Milpinyani Springs in her dust a year ago, vowing never to return. But a favour to a friend finds her back in town—and back in her husband’s garage, where he offers her a proposition too sexy to refuse. A naked Joel has always been the one thing Casey can’t resist—but can her heart handle the heat?





ARC received from publisher via Netgalley for an honest review

I adored the Secret Confessions: Backstage series, so seeing this new Down and Dusty series of novellas from some of my favourite Australian authors put a smile on my dial.

This series series over 8 weeks is set in rural Australia.

I live in a small rural town, and I get a lot of the "small town" things in these stories.

Episode one sees Casey returning to Milpinyani Springs, and back to see her husband Joel for the first time in a year.  But this visit does not go how she was expecting it to - but that is not a bad thing at all.

I adored the spark that is still between them, the insane sexual chemistry.  You could feel the pull between them leap off the pages.  I just want them to be good, to get back together.

But you will need to read this for yourself to find out if they do.

I love Ms Johns' writing, she draws you right into the story from the first word to the last, and you will find this tasty morsel leaving you wanting more.

Can't wait for the next episode.

 

 

 
I’m an English teacher by trade (please don’t hold that against me), a mum 24/7, a supermarket owner by day, a chronic arachnophobic, and a writer by night. I rarely sleep. I live in rural Western Australia with my hyperactive husband and three mostly-gorgeous heroes-in-training.

I’ve been writing since I was 17 when I broke up with my first boyfriend (at the time I thought he was The One and was hugely devastated in the fashion of all 17 years olds). For some reason unbeknownst to me, I turned to writing as a form of therapy for my broken heart. It was enlightening to realise that with writing I could create whatever ending I liked. I wrote the story of me and The One and actually ended up killing him off. The writing was therapeutic, the story was cringe-worthy but I had caught the bug.

Almost a decade later, after a Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Writing and English and after many, many attempts at writing different types of novels, I joined Romance Writers of Australia. Finally I learnt there was more to writing a book than just typing out random thoughts – I learnt about craft, conflict, consistent characters, etc – and I also learnt that I LOVED contemporary romance and that was what I wanted to write.
Eventually I found a publisher who liked my work enough to offer me a contract. My first book came out in December 2011 and I’ve been living the dream since then (i.e. working from home in my pjs). I’ve written sassy, urban romances for Carina Press, a cowboy romance for Tule Publishing and lots of rural romances for Harlequin Australia and HQN.

In 2012 my debut rural romance, JILTED won the Australian Romance Readers Association’s Favourite Contemporary Romance Award and in 2013 I was voted in Booktopia’s Top Ten Favourite Aussie Authors. I’m currently Australia’s number one rural romance author according to Bookscan Neilson.

I hope that if you decide to try one of my books – about pretty normal people creating pretty amazing happy ever afters – that you enjoy it and pine a little when it ends
