From the moment Gordon Dewitt spots Chelsea being swarmed by men
at his BDSM club he knows she will make an excellent
submissive. Her attitude is full of defiance but her demeanor
and dress hints of a woman seeking a master. A true Dominant,
Gordon decides to show Chelsea what it means to truly submit.
But when they come together in an intense encounter, the lines
begin to blur and each starts to wonder if they've finally met
their match.
This quickie from Reese Gabriel is chock full of explosive BDSM
scenes but a tad light on characterization. While it's easy to
believe that they have found the perfect Master and sub with
each other, the quick leap from lust to love seems a little
forced. But to be honest, does it matter? You'll want to read
this for a voyeuristic peek into the world of masterful Sirs and
bratty slave girls.

Having just graduated from college, Jared Todd comes home to
help his widower father with the family ranch. The work leaves
him little time for a love life, which is just as well since
he's gay and no one in his small town knows it. When Jared's
bitten by a coyote he rescues from a trap, he begins to have
erotic dreams where his coyote turns into a beautiful man and
makes love with him. Jared's about to find out that some dreams
really do come true.
While this Ellora's Cave Quickie ended way too abruptly for me,
this hot and primal story works as a whole and gets the job
done.

Planet Amanas - Decades after the betrayal of the Drakon lords
Eartha is Hameon of Gradoc’s slave, used for work in the fields
by day and his pleasure at night. Longing for escape, her
patience is finally been rewarded and she successfully slips
away from Hameon’s stronghold. Taking refuge in a tavern from
the guardsmen seeking to recapture her, Eartha realizes she
needs help. The guardsmen will be looking for a single woman and
they are hot on her heels. Eartha needs a man – fast -- and the
lone one in the corner is as good as any.
Arrik Varkas Drakon is one of the Drakon lords, men who are
capable of living as both dragon and man, and who were once the
trusted advisors and warriors of human kings. But that was
before they were betrayed by the kings and ultimately chose to
withdraw from the world of man. On this night, Arrik has grown
tired of his own company and seeks out a bar hoping for some
entertainment. When Eartha, of the bare feet and ragged cloak,
offers herself to him, he’s surprised by how much he wants to
accept. If only Eartha knew what she asked, for once a Drakon
claims a treasure, he keeps it forever.
A tale of wizards, dragons, men and those who are both man and
dragon, DRAKON’S TREASURE, is a satisfying read. Eartha is a
woman who has lived through many hardships and deserves to find
happiness. Arrik is, at heart, a lonely man in need of someone
to complete his life. The sex is steamy and the conclusion
satisfying. I recommend that fantasy and paranormal fans stop by
Ellora’s cave and pick up a copy of DRAKON’S TREASURE.

Famous singer Regina Rose is in a bind -- literally. Kidnapped
from her plush mansion in Hollywood by an obsessed fan, she now
finds herself at the mercy of her two captors. When she learns
that one of them is the man she had a crush on when she was
fifteen, innocent Regina doesn't know whether to be afraid or
happy. Adam Bennett broke her heart three years ago when he
shacked up with another woman, but it looks like he's taken her
to claim what he believes is rightfully his.
For three years Adam has waited for the perfect time to have
Regina. His desire for her has forced him to kidnap her, and he
feels no remorse. Adam knows that once he makes Regina his
woman, she will have no choice but to stay with him and be at
his mercy for the rest of their lives.
True, this book is full of non-consent and forced seduction, but
STALKED is a fantasy being played out. Keep that in mind as you
read this unbelievably hot book about a famous woman "kidnapped"
by a man obsessed with what he never had and lost anyway.
STALKED is rated E-xtreme because of very graphic scenes and
talk. Some readers won't like this kind of role-playing, but for
those who do enjoy intimacy games, the latest from Jaid Black
will definitely keep you interested. And be ready for a surprise
