My Passion for Books

I inherited my book addiction from my mother. She owned hundreds of Readers Digest Condensed Books and I broke my teeth absorbing the abridged versions of the great classics. I lived for the arrival of her monthly subscription and read way past bedtime.

Life changed, I married, and motherhood slowed my reading down dramatically. On my twenty-fifth birthday, my husband decided to put a little spice in our marriage and surprised me with individually giftwrapped romance books. He seductively wrapped the racy covers in shiny red paper and accented the packages with black bows. I admit to being a complete romance snob and pretending to be happy about the shocking smut.

I realize now that his amazing picks, based on the steamiest covers he could find, started my love of HEA romance novels. I will never forget my horror on seeing the original artwork of The Black Lyon by Jude Deveraux, The Kadin by Bertrice Small, and Bold Conquest by Virginia Henley. I should have won an academy award for my gracious acceptance of my presents.

I planned to skim read the books, pretend I loved them, and keep him happy. The poor man didn’t see me for a solid week. Scanning wasn’t an option after the first chapter of The Black Lyon. I read the next two books and then read all three again. The stories pulled me in and changed my reading habits forever.

The hunky males seductively gracing the covers didn’t intimidate my husband. He lay in bed reading his technical manuals and asked me to let him know when I got to the sexy parts. Our marriage was never the same.

I read Harlequin, Silhouette, and every historical love story I could get my hands on. I will never forget my tears and laughter reading Whitney my Love by Judith McNaught for the first time. Janet Daily kept me up late into the night and I hounded the bookstores for the latest Catherine Coulter.

Today my tastes glide from sweet dreamy stories, sexy werewolves, and seductive erotic books. I own a Nook and Kindle. I stock my eReaders like I stock my bookshelves. Ilona Andrews doesn’t write fast enough, I gobble up Cherise Sinclair hours after a new release, and I advance order the latest Julia Quinn without blinking an eye.

Writing has been an incredible journey for me. I want people to feel the emotions of my characters. I like imperfect men and women that grab life by the horns and challenge love. I write erotica BDSM and push the envelope of sexual fantasy. I live HEA and I’m proud of my husband and his ability to keep our marriage romantic, spicy, and loving. He doesn’t order me flowers; he sneaks next door at 5 a.m. and cuts a bouquet from the neighbor’s prize roses. When I say I’m fat he buys me a bag of Hershey’s Kisses and tells me he loves my sexy love handles. He is my hero.

I remain the ultimate romance snob; if it’s not romance, it’s not worth reading.

Please describe yourself with three different words.

Review

WOW! I cannot believe I’ve never read any of Holly Robertson’s works before! She created amazing characters (each one lovable), and her writing and very vivid descriptions, were all fantastic in every sense that all made for a very addictive erotic read. A definite MUST read for all erotic genre fans out there :)

Angel is a woman that was trapped, kept prisoner for some time and used and abused by her captors. She’s a woman that has been through so much in life, yet manages to keep on living. She sets a strong example of a woman’s strength and determination at work, with a large side of play (wink wink). Having met both Zach and Monroe has worked wonders for her and I see her (even though she’s been through so much negative) as a VERY lucky woman!

Monroe is a mysterious, handsome and intriguing man that will set any woman’s panties a flame! He’s one hard core dominant that throws off the vibes both in and out of the bedroom. He can be gentle when needed and a killer when absolutely necessary, and a vicious one at that. He also has a kind heart, amazing looks and a hearty sexual appetite.

Zach is a hero through and through. The man has a huge heart and great looks. Since the day he met Monroe, he’s discovered more and more about himself both as a person and as a Dom. He has likes and dislikes in the bedroom, but has never allowed all of his likes to be known, to anyone. Befriending Monroe has helped him to realize his likes are not as abnormal as he feels they are and letting them be known to his intimate partners will only help to bring more to the experience and boy oh boy does it ever!

Two Doms for Angel is packed full of action, excitement, M/F/M scenes (that let off steam from the pages), very sexy BDSM elements and HOT heroes. All in all I’d say it is one gripping, emotional steamy and addictive read that leaves you wanting more in the very best of ways! I REALLY hope to see more of this trio. Really I do (hint hint).

Holly's Satin Sheets Review: In Her Sights by Charley Colins

In Her Sights by Charley Colins a.k.a. Keri Ford

Length: 271 Pages
Genre: Romantic Mystery w/ a twist
Website: http://keriford.com/charley-colins/

Buy Links: Amazon, B&N, Kobo, ARE, Smashwords, iBookstore, and Diesel 

Blurb: 
Some call her a killer.

Others call her a hero.

Lexie Olympia calls herself neither. She's getting the job done because she can. A beloved philanthropist by day who's nicknamed Melville's Sweetheart, Lexie has the city wrapped around her little finger. Having been a victim in the past, left behind with the killer still on the loose, Lexie knows what it's like to live with that fear. Instead of biting her nails over it, she takes action. Drug lords, gang leaders, con artists, kidnappers, serial killers, anyone who leaves behind innocent victims are marked on Lexie's list.

When a neighbor leaves a stolen ancient dagger on her doorstep and skips town, Lexie’s left picking up the pieces. The police, a local private investigator, and a gang are all after this artifact and Lexie uses her nighttime persona, Artemis, to get to the bottom of things. Everything is going smoothly until she gets caught.

Review by Holly Roberts:

Simply put…I loved this book. I was hunting for something different and oh momma, this story gave me everything I craved. “In Her Sights” took me on a thrill ride of romance, mystery, and just plain fun.

Lexie is my kind of female. She’s smart, tough, and independent while hiding her secret life behind a sweet socialite persona. Ms. Colins kept me turning the pages, trying to solve the mystery, and wanting more Lexie Olympia.

Then we have Clayton; ex-police officer, haunted by past demons, a hunky heart of gold, and a longing to uncover every secret Lexie hides. He’s falling for the mysterious community sweetheart but sees more than meets the public eye.

I’d like to complain about the limited sex (I’m a smut lover) but I can’t because the story stood on its own and the slow burn was worth the wait. I’m harsh on proper police procedural and only noticed two writer/misconceptions that will most likely be overlooked by the average reader. If you’re a stickler, you’ll roll your eyes, crack a smile, and continue reading this special story.

Batman, meet Lexie Olympia and plan on getting your ass kicked.
