About the Author:
My name is Toni Aleo and I’m a total dork.

I am a wife, mother of two and a bulldog, and also a hopeless romantic.

I am the biggest Shea Weber fan ever, and can be found during hockey season with my nose pressed against the Bridgestone Arena’s glass, watching my Nashville Predators play!

When my nose isn’t pressed against the glass, I enjoy going to my husband and son’s hockey games, my daughter’s dance competition, hanging with my best friends, taking pictures, scrapbooking, and reading the latest romance novel.

I have a slight Disney and Harry Potter obsession, I love things that sparkle, I love the color pink, I might have been a Disney Princess in a past life… probably Belle.

… and did I mention I love hockey?

.... The Blurb  ....
I didn’t expect to fall off the stage and land in the powerful arms of this gorgeous man.

He’s a brutal warrior on the rugby field and a delicate artist with the cello, and the combination is irresistible. His music seduces. It inspires my dancing and demands my surrender.

I gave up on my dream once, and I’ll need his help to resume the chase.

And when we take the stage together, I’m willing to give him everything. My submission. The dark secret I’ve been keeping. Even my tenuous heart.

But will he want any of it once he knows the truth?
.... My Thoughts   ...
In Short
- This book had me wanting more.
- The characters are all so well developed and all add to the book.
- The scenes are raunchy but tasteful.

In Long
Wow, this book totally took me by surprise! I became totally engrossed and have been left wanting more, I actually don't think I could ever get enough of these characters. A few pages in i just knew this book wouldn't be enough and I searched to see if this book was part of a series, I felt relief and excitement when i saw it was! 

The characters are so well developed. I adored spending time with them, they all brought their own part to the book and even the secondary characters made their own stamp in the book. 

I couldn't get enough of Grant, I was intrigued by everything about him and just wanted to get to know him more and more. He has so many different sides to him and his character really grew throughout the book which was so intriguing to read.

The story line is full of raunchy but tasteful scenes that really got my blood pumping. Just when I thought a scene couldn't be beaten, Nikki would prove me wrong with an even dirtier, sexier scene.


Final Thoughts 
Everything about this book was just perfect, I loved every second. I can not wait to read the rest of the series.

Quotes

.... The Blurb  ....
We’ve made a list, and we’ve checked it, twice
And she’s about to find out what happens to bad girls tonight.
We’ll deck her halls with more than holly
This Christmas Eve, we want her nice and naughty.

They call us ruthless, and cruel. Filthy rich beyond belief, dominant beyond compare, and we run our company with iron fists.

It’s the night before Christmas, but all is not calm. And all sure as hell ain’t right or bright. See, someone’s been skimming from the company piggy-bank, and selling secrets to our rivals.

Not just anyone though. Her.

Noelle Healy. The new hire. The innocently tempting, forbidden little tease who’s been driving us insane in our need to have her. 

…and we will have her.

Dark hair, wild, fierce eyes, and just enough sass in those pouty lips and curvy hips to drive a man wild. Or two of them.

But someone’s been a bad, bad girl this year, and she’s about to find her stocking stuffed with two somethings much harder than coal. We’ve got some heavy bells for her to jingle, and enough mistletoe to last all night.

Christmas might come but once a year, but the two of us are farmore frequent than that. And Noelle’s about to unwrap a bah-humbugging she’ll never forget.

.... My Thoughts   ...
In Short
- This is a short steamy read. 
- I really enjoyed this book and it took me by surprise.
- Madison Faye is the excerpt at dirty and steamy reads. 

In Long
Madison Faye is an expert at packing a book full of steamy, hot scenes in a short read. From page one I was engrossed in this book. The story line took me by surprise in a few places and I absolutely loved it. 

The story is a short one but I felt like I got to know Noelle quickly, within a few chapters and I loved her characters. I didn't get to know Seamus or Brock as well but for a short and hot read it was enough, woah was it enough ;)


Final Thoughts 
 I really enjoyed this, just what I needed!

.... The Blurb  ....
We've always been different. 

Normal is something that's bored us from the moments we were spit into this world, screaming and crying, wondering why we were dispelled from the sanctity of the darkness we both crave. 

I guess in a way, it's made us stronger than we thought we were. 
Especially now since we have each other. 
I’d do anything for her and she would do anything for me. 

Lie. 

Cheat. 

Steal. 

Kill. 

We were never meant to be together, but the universe has a way of taking two completely different disasters and putting them together to let destruction reign freely. Our story is born of violence, deceit, and mischief, but it’s one you won’t soon forget. 

Welcome to the world according to Pike & Molly.

.... My Thoughts   ...
In Short
- I did not expect this, you can't expect this.
- This book challenged me mentally that not many other books could. 
- The two characters are insane and crazy. 

In Long
Woah. 
I did not expect this. I don't think you could expect this, because whatever you are thinking, times it by 100 and then again. 
I love dark romance, I love characters which have a challenging dark side to them but what Molly and Pike 'bring to the table' is just in another league. I kept thinking throughout this whole book whether I wanted to continue reading this, it challenged me in a way mentally I didn't think was possible. But then I just couldn't put it down, it was so gripping in such an odd way,

Pike and Molly are insane, there isn't really a better word to describe them and I can't think of many others either. Their characters definitely spiked my interest because it was like seeing into this whole new mind which was scary as hell. 

The story line is a strange one because really there isn't one as such, it's mainly about following Pike and Molly. That said following them alone is this whole new disturbing, difficult to read, messed up story line. 


Final Thoughts 
I feel like there is more from Molly and Pike, I want to see where they go and what they do. I went on a massive roller coaster with them and just feel like I need more of them, something different.  

Quotes
'Love. It's a stupid emotion that people offer up as an explanation for either hurting someone or lying to someone.'

'Bad, bad, bad, that's what makes me sad. You will pay, you will die, I want to hear you cry.'

'There are rules on how you're supposed to live your life, but Pike taught me that rules are people's way of holding you back because of their fears.'

.... The Blurb  ....
“911. What is your emergency?”

Every night, Zara Llewelyn picks up the phone and assists people in distress. House fires. Assault. Motor vehicle accidents. Home invasions...

Between the hours of six and two, she is the answer to a thousand cries for help. But when the payphone outside Zara’s apartment building mysteriously begins ringing night after night, the very last thing she wants to do is pick it up. And yet, she can’t seem to help herself...

Pasha Rivin’s trying to outrun fate. He’s been running from it for years now, but escape isn’t in his cards. As the oldest son of the oldest Roma family in the country, he’s not just a member of a proud and fiercely traditional clan. He is their reluctant king...and now he’s expected to find a wife.

The fiery redhead that shows up on his doorstep, following a trail of breadcrumbs, hunting for a missing little boy, is the last person Pasha’s mother has in mind, however. 
She’s an outsider, an intruder, and as far as his family are concerned, she’s not welcome on their land, let alone in their king’s bed.

Pasha has never allowed his destiny to stand in the way of what he wants, however. And he’s never wanted anything more than he wants the girl with the burning green eyes.

***

Zara Llewelyn picked up the phone and learned a secret.

Falling in love has never been so dangerous...
.... My Thoughts   ...
In Short
- Roma King is full of suspense. 
- I haven't read anything like Roma King before, it's a unique read. 
- I feel like we have so much more to come from Pasha and Zara.

In Long
Callie Hart is one of my favourite authors. Her writing always pulls you so far into the world she has created that you forget who you are and where you are while reading her stories. 

Roma King is a unique, suspenseful read. I can honestly say I haven't read anything like Roma King before and I know I won't again. I felt like I was a ball being thrown from person to person while reading Roma King. So much is going on, getting to know each character and trying to piece together the story line, which is often impossible until Callie is good and ready for her readers to understand what is happening.

Pasha has many sides to him and is a complex character. The different sides often coming out when he is with different characters. Callie has a special talent for creating these breath taking characters and Pasha, as well as Zara, just reinforced this. 

Zara had me puzzled, and the people she surrounds herself with just as much. I honestly can say I haven't met anyone like Zara, or her friends. I absolutely loved this  crazy, wacky group of people. Everything about them was so unpredictable, just like the story line. 


Final Thoughts 
I am really excited for book two in this duet. I feel like we have so much more to come from Pasha and Zara and this is just the beginning, which makes me crazily excited. 

Quotes
'We're all waiting for you. We're all holding our breath, but soon we're gonna run out of air.'

'He's burned through my mind like an unstoppable forest fire, starving the rest of my thoughts, my worries and my concerns, until they've dwindled and flickered out.'
