Shutter By Eli Chastain

Shutter by Eli Chastain Shutter Volume #1 

Publication Date: August 9, 2014

  Genres: Contemporary, Novella, Romance, Serial

Synopsis

I get paid to photograph intimate moments in other peoples’ lives—specifically one man. During the day, I watch while he’s working, and every night I watch him while he’s f***ing. It started as a job but quickly turned into an obsession. His name is Nikolas Gallo. I spent years in front of the camera before I escaped. Now I’m behind it and in control of what my shutter captures. The moment I viewed Niko in the lens of my camera I found the escape I’d been searching for. I finally felt connected – whole. There are two types of celebrity photographers: those that wait for their victim to venture into public, always allowing some semblance of privacy. And then there are those that lurk in the shadows, steadily invading lives, hunting and searching for the most private shot, and that’s what I had become. My name is Brook Beckham and I found my inner peeping Tom.


Sas' Thoughts:
As a fan girl I can see how one can get hooked on a celebrity. But there's a very thin line between a fan an a stalker. Brook Beckham is a stalker with a camera. Her prey the ever so sexy Nickolas Gallo.
But unlike most of us fan girls Brook gets the opportunity of a life time but it comes with a price.

Shutter had me hooked off the synopsis alone! But once the story began i literally didn't but the book down til the story was over! An even then i'm aching to find out what happens next!!

Im rating shutter 4.5 stars only because I felt the romance happened a little to fast for my taste. I would have liked to see more of stalker brook in the beginning.

~ SYNOPSIS ~

Raegan Montgomery's life changed in an instant…

One minute you think you know someone and the next minute they’re a stranger. When Raegan was forced to make a decision, she ended up alone. All. Alone.

One step inside a gym was all it took.

The ring became her escape. She was more determined than ever to move on and forget her old life. That was, until she saw those blue eyes.

Garrett Johnson wants nothing more than to spend his time training and dominating in the ring.

It's what he's good at.

It's what he does.

He has no time, or desire, to be entangled in a relationship. But after one look at Raegan, his whole world shifted. He needs her, he needs to know her, only its not so easy. This may be a fight he can’t win.

Will he be able to win Raegan over? Or will it end in a total knock out?

~ EXCERPT ~

I don’t want her fighting anymore. She doesn’t need to, she’s away from her dad, and he was the reason she started all this. I can take care of her and make sure she has everything she’s ever wanted. What I can’t figure out is how to bring it up without upsetting her. I finally have her where I have always wanted her and I’m scared to lose her. I’m not scared of anything except that. I could lose every fight for the rest of my life and not feel a thing, but to lose her would completely tear me apart. She’s turned my life around and made me want to be a better person. I don’t know what the future has in store for us but all I can hope is she’s there for the rest of my life.

~ TEASERS ~

~ Catarina's Thouhts:

TKO is Ana Layne's first book and i can see many more to come.

TKO is about Reagan who lives in fear, alcoholic father, a boy friend who has cheated and Reagan knows she need to change her life for her to survive. She needs a job and money so that she can leave the situation behind.4

Garrett is a MMA fighter who doesn't do relationships, likes to party and king of one nightstands, he never hooks up with the same girl twice.

When Reagan decides to join the Gym Garrett trains at and both feel the attraction both know they are meant to be together. The chemistry between these two ooze through the pages but Reagan is reluctant to start something because Garrett has a reputation and Reagan wants more. Both have secrets and both are stubborn.

This book shows us how we relationships need to be worked at, we need overcome our fears and except help from those who love us. It shows us forgiveness can heal old wounds.
It also shows us that if you are willing to take chances you can find happiness.

The secondary characters are also wonderful and you will fall in love with Lance Whitney and Howard who show nothing but support to both Garrett and Reagan.

I gave this book 4 1/2 stars. When you read it you will want to know how things turnout. It ended like a cliff hanger to me, so I hope we get a second book to see how they all have endings.

Debt Inheritance (Indebted #1) By Pepper Winters

Title: Debt Inheritance

Author: Pepper Winters

Genre: Dark Erotica

Series:Indebted #1

Buy Links: Amazon B&N Goodreads

Rating: ☆☆☆☆☆

Synopsis:

“I own you. I have the piece of paper to prove it. It’s undeniable and unbreakable. You belong to me until you’ve paid off your debts.”

Nila Weaver’s family is indebted. Being the first born daughter, her life is forfeit to the first born son of the Hawks to pay for sins of ancestors past. The dark ages might have come and gone, but debts never leave. She has no choice in the matter.

She is no longer free.

Jethro Hawk receives Nila as an inheritance present on his twenty-ninth birthday. Her life is his until she’s paid off a debt that’s centuries old. He can do what he likes with her—nothing is out of bounds—she has to obey.

There are no rules. Only payments.

Sas’ Thoughts:

Pepper winters is one author I look forward to meeting one day even if that means I have to hope a plane an travel over seas!!
Her writing ALWAYS stands out from the rest and this book is no different!

On his 29th birthday Jethro Hawk In inherited Nila Weaver as repayment for a debt owed hundreds of years ago. An he fully planned to collect.

Nila Weaver 26, a successful fashion designer lived a busy yet sheltered simple life. her father and her twin brother never let her date. so imagine her surprise when her father introduced her to Jethro.

"I'm done,I'm being stolen for a debt only I can repay. A debt I know nothing about."

Although I read the synopsis, I wanted this to be a modern day version of Romeo an Juliette... I wanted Jethro to be the man of my naughty wet dreams.. the type of man that fulfills my every fantasy.. but he was quite the opposite and dear God I couldn't get enough! He wasn't evil though.. which leaves me with hope for my Romeo an Juliette theory.. lol (what can i say i'm a hopeless romantic)

we are left with a cliffhanger that you do see coming but hold on tight because its a good one!! I cant wait to read book 2!!

amazing job as always Ms Winters!! 5+++ stars

I'm addicted to writing. I've written 26 romance novels in 25 years, but I just started releasing them in May 2014 because frankly there are some things inside them I wasn't sure I wanted my daughters to read. The nest is empty, my girls all grown, so now I'm letting loose.

I believe in the adage; Don't judge a book by it's cover! Definitely the case with The Girl on the Half Shell. Perfect looking lives are not perfect. We all have our own challenges to overcome! It's a theme in the books I've written and I cover a wide range of contemporary issues in stories ranging from raw and steamy, to gut wrenching, to happy happily ever after. My first release The Girl on the Half Shell is my most intense novel, the first in the Half Shell Series and the one I had to wait until I had no kids at home to release. My Perfect Forever Series is definitely happy happily ever after! The first in this line of books was released June 2014 with The Signature.

COVER REVEAL: Forgotten Promises By Elle Brooks

Saying “I Promise” is the easiest thing to do, its just two tiny words. No one warned me of the weight they hold, that they not only have the power to make something, to give hope, or show devotion. They can destroy everything, cause so much hurt, ruin lives.

Every promise holds a toll, if I had known what mine would cost me, I would have walked away. Now I have to pay the price, watch the consequences of my actions unfold. Witnessing someone I love crumble after breaking my oath isn’t the hardest thing I’ve endured, it's being forgotten by the one person that I could never forget.

Forgotten Promises is book 2 in the Promises series and needs to be read AFTER Promises Hurt (Book 1)

Synopsis:

BDSM club owner Adam Kessler is no one’s hero. He joined the army to get away from the gang-life that had taken his brother, only to come home to heartache. He doesn’t hide his dominant side, and he doesn’t hesitate in his need to protect or enforce his particular brand of retribution on those who’ve earned it. There’s no way in hell he could walk past a man hassling a woman in an empty parking lot and do nothing. Only when the confrontation is over and the voluptuous blonde turns eyes filled with desire to him, does Adam realize he’s in trouble.


Psychologist Olivia Lang grew up with the proverbial silver spoon, and has never regretted spending more time on her career than on romance, until she meets Adam Kessler. He’s rough, tough, and ten years her junior…and she wants him.


Passion burns quick and hot between them and soon they’re caught up in an intensely carnal relationship that niether can deny. But when Olivia’s life is threatened and Adam shows her just how dangerous he can be, will it be too much for the civilized psychologist to handle, or will she truly accept the man and win her hero’s heart?


Catarina's Thoughts:


Primal is hot saucy and full of spark, with every page you read your pulse heightens and your heart beats faster.


A story about two strangers finding each other and realise they are soulmates, are the perfect fit, and have a connection nothing can break.


Olivia and Adam connect instantly body, heart and soul, they both feel it. neither had been looking but when Adam sees Olivia for the first time he knew he wanted her and wanted her to be part of is life .He knows he has to be up front and honest, give her the choice to be wit him.


You delve into the world of BDSM and his past, and you can see the chemistry between them electrify as you read through the pages. This book will grip you will want you to read on and see if Olivia is willing to submit to Adam and become his and only his. Olivia feels the connection and has never felts this way with any man.


Sasha White has written a remarkable novel that keeps you entertained through out, by the end you want more you want to see where it leads and how you can find your soulmate.



This is definitely a 5 star book and I hope there is a follow up because feel we could find out

more about Adam and Olivia, more can be explored.

A Week In NY By Louise Bay

A sexy, romantic fiction novella seriesInstallment #1Release: October 21, 2014Each novella is around 30k words

Amazon

Anna Kirby is sick of dating. She's tired of heartbreak. Despite being smart, sexy, and funny, she's a magnet for men who don't deserve her.
A week's vacation in New York is the ultimate distraction from her most recent break-up, as well as a great place to meet a stranger and have some summer fun. But to protect her still-bruised heart, fun comes with rules. There will be no sharing stories, no swapping numbers, and no real names. Just one night of uncomplicated fun.
Super-successful serial seducer Ethan Scott has some rules of his own. He doesn't date, he doesn't stay the night, and he doesn't make any promises.
It should be a match made in heaven. But rules are made to be broken.
 A Week in New York is the first in a series of three novellas.

Donna's Thoughts: 

This is the first book by author Louise Bay that I’ve read and I’ll be honest about it, I can’t wait to read more. This author knows how to write a sexy, confident alpha male. Her female character is just as well written. Anna is strong and independent. She and her friend have flown to New York from London with the friend’s fiancé to get away. Anna has just broken up with yet another wrong choice. She’s looking for some fun, not anther relationship and where better to do that than 3000 miles away from home.

Ethan doesn’t do relationships. He’s upfront with every woman he sleeps with. This is one night only, don’t give him your number, don’t ask for his and don’t expect him to stay the night. When he sees Anna across the bar, he knows he will have her. Even better, she has her own rules and thats suit him just fine.

This book is full of steamy sex and an interesting story line. I can’t wait for the next book Autumn in London. Great job Louise. I give this book 5 stars with 4.5 hands down the pants. 

About the Author

I write sexy, romantic, contemporary novels - the kind I like to read!

Ruined by romantic mini-series of the seventies and eighties, I love all things romantic. There's not enough of it in real life so I'll settle for books and films.

I love the rain, the West Wing, London, days when you don't have to wear make-up, being alone, being with friends, elephants and champagne.
