I have been not quite so patiently waiting for this one.  I fell  in love with Madison and Logan in Part I (the Lingerie Shop), and this was just what I wanted from the second installment.  Logan is training a sub for another Dom and asked Madison to help out.  She hesitantly agrees.  Hesitantly because this submission stuff is all new to her and she’s not sure what will be expected of her.  While the book starts off with a steamy training session, it only gets hotter as the pages turn.


This is one that will make you cancel appointments so that you don’t have to stop reading it. I love the relationship that is building between Madison and Logan.  My only complaint is that Part III is not available yet!


If you enjoy strong Doms helping someone explore submission for the first time, this series is for you.  Start with Part I: the Lingerie Shop.  You won’t be able to stop with just Part I.  Soon you’ll be anxiously awaiting the release of Part III with me.


A note:  this book contains a steamy hot scene between Logan, Madison, and another sub, although no intercourse is involved.

Mitch is a tiger shifter.  When he’s injured in the line of duty, Gina steps in to help him heal.  Gina is a rare white tiger shifter, a princess who was raised in exhile.  The attraction is instant, but can a soldier ever be good enough for a princess?


Although I have not read the first book in this series, I had no problem following this story.  In fact reading this book makes me want to go back and read the first one (I’ve added it to my already too-big TBR list).  The relationship that builds between Mitch and Gina was beautiful to read. A relationship where they make each other stronger.


The perfect combination of romance, magic, politics, and purring.  This one was a page turner.  Bianca D’Arc is quickly becoming an author I have to read.  I only wish her back list wasn’t so large already!

Contractor Ben needs another project, fast.  When high school teacher Mallory asks him to finish all the projects her ex-husband left behind, he’s drawn to more than the money the project will bring.

This one pulled at my emotions a bit.  Mallory has been through a terrible year of life and is trying to bounce back.  Ben is trying to provide a stable home life for his daughter Amber.  The two of them fit together.  Yet they don’t rush into things, which I appreciated.  I didn’t care for the drawn out suspense of what had happened in the last year for Mallory.  It frustrated me, more than drawing me into the story.  And there was some mild kink that just didn’t work in this one for me.  Other than that, this was a solid read.


I’m guessing this is the first book in a upcoming series.  I will read the second one when it comes out, because I’m predicting Beth’s (Mallory’s friend) Vegas vacation will turn out to have some unexpected consequences and I want to see if I’m right.
