Knight & Play (Knight #1)

Knight 1

Amazon Worldwide | Barnes & Noble

 
There’s only one thing in life Lucien Knight really hates, and that’s husbands who cheat on their wives.

There’s only one problem in Sophie Black’s life. Her cheating husband…

From the moment Lucien & Sophie meet, the seal is set.

Romantic, emotional & intensely erotic, Knight and Play is the perfect read for lovers of international bestsellers Fifty Shades & Bared To You. Let yourself be swept away by Part One of the Knight series from Kitty French, a romance so hot it’ll burn your fingers…

CEO of Knight Inc. Lucien Knight is catch-your-breath gorgeous and damaged by his troubled past in Norway. All grown up and relocated to London, he’s built his empire of adult clubs from the ground up to become the gorgeous patron saint of the sex industry. No one knows the dark childhood secrets that have given Lucien a backbone of steel and a heart encased in ice. No one until Sophie Black, that is…

From the moment girl-next-door Sophie accepts the job as Lucien Knight’s PA, she understands how Alice must have felt when she tumbled down the rabbit hole. Lucien takes her safe, vanilla life away and plunges her head first into a huge dish of fantasy flavours. Rich, spicy chocolate covered with dark, oozingly lickable sauce? Check. Tutti-frutti with indecently red, glistening cherries on the top? Yes please.

Lucien strips away all of Sophie’s inhibitions, and when he instructs her to select three new toys, she soon realises he has more than a game of Monopoly on his mind… 

He’s opened the door to a whole new pleasure packed world without limits, and Sophie is utterly intoxicated. But how far is she willing to go? And what happens when she has to step back into reality again?

Lucien & Sophie’s is a story of star crossed love and forbidden passion, a sexual odyssey that spans the globe and changes both of their lives forever. Let it change yours, too.

My Review

5 stars!! Knight & Play is an absolutely delicious story that can be devoured in one sitting and will leave you wanting more. Lucien is a perfect leading man for me, strong, smart, sometimes funny, and very sure of what he wants. Sophie can be a little maddening but I really felt a connection between these two characters and I loved the whole premise of the story. I read a lot of erotica and cheating doesn’t bother me but some of the reviews have strongly criticized the book because of this. It is an integral part of the story line here and added lots of emotion and angst to the plot. I also absolutely loved the settings of this book and they really added to the exotic feel of the book.

Unless I feel a strong emotional connection and bond between the main characters, I can’t feel connected to a story. Well I really bonded with Lucien and Sophie and can’t wait to dive into the next books in this series!

Excerpt:

“Look in the mirror, Sophie.”
She tried to pull away but he held her firm. “Look. Tell me what you see.”
She looked, reluctantly. And she saw the same person she always saw reflected back
at her. The same yet subtly different. More grown-up? More knowing?
Black silk underwear, hold-ups, high heels. Long, tumbled blonde hair. A kissswollen
mouth, and the liquid, sensual eyes of a satisfied woman.
And standing behind her, a head and shoulders taller, Lucien. Shirtless.
Beautiful.
Her Viking warrior, and now her Viking lover.
“Let me tell you what I see.” Lucien said, his hands on her shoulders.
“I see a woman with the face of an angel.” He ran the back of his fingers down her
cheek. “A face that makes men want to fuck her just to see how she looks when she
comes.”
Sophie stared at him in the mirror, shocked and mesmerised.
“She has the kind of curves that make men want to touch her.”
He splayed a big warm hand over her pale stomach, making her skin tauten and her
breath catch in her throat.
“I see a woman who deserves to be treated like a princess.”
He only had to touch her and it was as if he’d flicked the ‘seduce me now’ switch
in her head.
“Look at you, Sophie.” He was so close that she could feel the warmth of his breath
tickle her neck. “You’re like a peach waiting to be plucked from the tree.” He stepped
flush against her, her back against his chest.
“Velvet soft skin.” He trailed his fingertips down her arms.
“Luscious curves.” He covered her breasts with his hands and stroked them through
her bra.
“Ripe.” He slid a hand between her legs and cradled her. Sophie watched his every
move in the mirror with wide eyes, almost too turned on to breathe.
“Juicy.” He groaned as he slid his hand inside her knickers. “So fucking juicy.” He
moved his fingers along her sex, still wet from the first time he’d made her come.
“I want to lick your juices, Sophie.”
Sophie could feel his erection pressing hard into her back, and all she could think of
was how much she wanted him to carry on making her feel this good. The sight of
them in the mirror was like a life size soft porn movie; she couldn’t take her eyes
away from his hand moving inside her knickers.
“Tell me that isn’t beautiful,” he said against her ear.
She couldn’t. The fact was that he made her beautiful.

 

Knight & Stay (Knight #2)

Awaken Teaser1

My Review:

6 perfect stars!! Nina Lane ends the Spiral of Bliss series on an absolutely perfect note, as we follow Professor Dean West and Olivia through even more trials and tribulations involving their marriage, her family relationships and his academic career. I didn’t think Ms. Lane could top the story lines of the first two books in the series, but she has done just that.

Dean and Liv are forced to be apart due to a very serious matter involving his academic career at the university. Added to this stress is the re-appearance of a person from Liv’s past, which stirs up intense emotions and further threatens their marriage.
But Liv and Dean share an intense and beautiful intimacy that is far too often missing from contemporary erotic stories. They truly live in a state of (wedded!) bliss that is both breathtaking and incredibly satisfying to read.

“We have a tropical island, Dean. It’s called our marriage. And I’d be happy to lounge around naked eating bananas, if that’s what you want. “

I absolutely love how Liv grows and matures as a character in Awaken. Dean also learns how to let go a little, and to let life truly take them on an unexpected journey. I cannot believe this series has come to an end, and I will miss these characters terribly. Thank you to Nina Lane for creating a spectacular story filled with characters that I will never forget.

Review

I love a good MC book so I jumped at the chance to read Deadly Seduction. The synopsis sounded so promising! We meet Cillian and Gisela, who had a passionate teenage romance that resulted in the birth of a child when Gisela was only 16 years old. Flash forward years later and Gisela is now a Harvard-educated attorney and Cillian is VP of the family’s MC. He is also married to someone else and involved in some serious criminal enterprises. When Gisela agrees to defend him in a criminal case, sparks fly and she doesn’t think she can stay away from him again.

The storyline is very fast-paced and engaging, and the sex scenes are totally hot. There are a lot of characters in Selene Chardou’s world and it is sometimes hard to keep them all straight! I loved the setting and the Irish background of some of the main characters. I had a tiny issue with some of the legal stuff and Gisela’s reaction to some of Cillian’s behavior (no spoilers). Overall, this is an engaging MC story with lots of steam and very strong characters, which made for a fairly quick and action-packed read.

Excerpt

Now, I found myself in the same position with Cillian, and I couldn’t do it again. Not only because of Brianna but because I was in love with the fucking guy.

“Leave Brianna and we’ll pick up this conversation at another time. Until that happens…I don’t think I can do this.” My voice was small but firm.

He crawled over my body so he could face me. “Now you’re not playing fair. I told you I would leave her and I will. You can’t deny me—I won’t be able to do this without knowing you’re by my side.”

“And I will be when that Irish bitch is out of your life.” I gritted my teeth together. “You left me in a foreign country for her, and drop kicked my ass outta your life. Now, I’m supposed to drop everything because you give me a few empty promises after mind blowing sex? I want to believe you but we’ve got too damn much history between us, babe. I need to see some actions before I commit to anything.”

Cillian smiled wryly. “Always the fucking attorney. Fine, I’ll show you actions but you better keep up your end of the bargain.”

I turned over onto my side away from him. “Don’t worry about me. Unlike you, I don’t make promises I can’t keep.”

Synopsis:

“All my life, I battled with the knowledge I was twisted… fucked up to want something so deliciously dark—wrong on so many levels. But then slave fifty-eight entered my world. Hissing, fighting, with a core of iron, she showed me an existence where two wrongs make a right.”
Tess is Q’s completely. Q is Tess’s irrevocably. But now, they must learn the boundaries of their unconventional relationship, while Tess seeks vengeance on the men who sold her. Q made a blood-oath to deliver their corpses at Tess’s feet, and that’s just what he’ll do.
He may be a monster, but he’s Tess’s monster.

My Review:

First, be aware that this book is not for the faint of heart. Human trafficking, drugs, kidnapping, abuse in all forms – this story contains all of this and more. But it is also an incredibly rewarding and fulfilling book if you can make it through the very difficult parts of Tess and Q’s story.

Reading the fantastic Tears of Tess first is a must so that you can fully understand the dark and complex nature of the main characters’ relationship. I had been waiting for Pepper Winers to continue Tess and Q’s story and I devoured Quintessentially Q almost in one sitting. This is a highly addictive series and the writing is lush, detailed and very, very sexy. I mean, Q almost literally burns up the pages. If you like very dark erotic romance (yes, this is most definitely a romantic story), then I can’t recommend this book and series highly enough. One of my favorite books this year.

Excerpt:

With nerves lodged in my throat, I pulled out ropes, cuffs, bondage of all types.
Tess watched remotely as I piled my arms full of things and headed back to the bed. Placing them on the towel at the foot of the four poster, I looked at Tess. “Tie me up.”
I never thought I’d ever say those words. But I needed her to bind me. I wouldn’t be able to go through with this if she didn’t. I’d run like a fucking coward, or lash out and hurt her.
She picked up the leather cuffs, the buckles clinking. “Where?”
Trying to curb the terror and anger and so many fucking things, I forced myself to sit on the mattress and lie down.
My heart was a fucking crazy thing going a billion miles an hour; I couldn’t look at Tess. I couldn’t look anywhere but at the large canopy above my head. The four posters were sturdy—half a fucking tree sturdy—once she bound me, I wouldn’t be able to get free.
My stomach rolled and I swore I would be sick. Shit. Oh, shit. What the fuck am I doing?
Tess glided closer to the bed, looking like a malnourished ghost. She eyed the cuff, then my limbs. My fists pressed against my thighs, every muscle locked tight.
I hadn’t undressed. The element of having jeans and a T-shirt on was my only armament; I wanted to keep it that way.
I gritted my teeth, spreading my legs for her.
She swallowed and obediently looped the soft leather around my ankle.
Black spots appeared in my vision as she tightened the buckle around the bedpost. She fastened it and I wriggled.
“You need to do it tighter. I can get free.” I hated every word. I wanted to chop out my tongue for being such a traitor, but I wasn’t doing this for me. I was doing this for Tess. To somehow break the barrier she’d fortified. If it took dynamite in the form of making me shatter, then so be it.
Tess nodded, tightening the buckle until it bit into my skin. Heat travelled up my leg, causing me to shiver with helplessness.
Torturing me with fluttering touches and slowness, Tess secured my other ankle before sighing heavily. She looked at me with a thousand wishes in her eyes and no hope. Moving toward the head of the bed, she chose a length of silk rope.
Our eyes never left each other as she bent and captured my hand with hers. The moment her delicate fingers touched my trembling skin, I bucked. My cock roared to life and all I wanted to do was kiss her, fuck her, never let her fucking go again.
She bit her lip, her eyes darkening just a little.
“Embrasse moi!” Kiss me, I demanded, capturing her hand with mine.
We stared so long, so hard, I wondered if I’d die waiting for her to obey. Finally, she bent in half, lowering herself toward me. My legs might be bound, but my arms and torso weren’t. The moment she was in grabbing distance, I wrapped my arms around her, dragging her hard against me.

Tears of Tess Synopsis:

A New Adult Dark Contemporary Romance, not suitable for people sensitive to grief, slavery, and nonconsensual sex. A story about finding love in the strangest of places, a will of iron that grows from necessity, and forgiveness that may not be enough.

“My life was complete. Happy, content, everything neat and perfect.
Then it all changed.
I was sold.”

Tess Snow has everything she ever wanted: one more semester before a career in property development, a loving boyfriend, and a future dazzling bright with possibility. 

For their two year anniversary, Brax surprises Tess with a romantic trip to Mexico. Sandy beaches, delicious cocktails, and soul-connecting sex set the mood for a wonderful holiday. With a full heart, and looking forward to a passion filled week, Tess is on top of the world.

But lusty paradise is shattered.

Kidnapped. Drugged. Stolen. Tess is forced into a world full of darkness and terror. 

Captive and alone with no savior, no lover, no faith, no future, Tess evolves from terrified girl to fierce fighter. But no matter her strength, it can’t save her from the horror of being sold.

Can Brax find Tess before she’s broken and ruined, or will Tess’s new owner change her life forever?

“After battling through hell, I brought my esclave back from the brink of ruin. I sacrificed everything—my heart, my mind, my very desires to bring her back to life. And for a while, I thought it broke me, that I’d never be the same. But slowly the beast is growing bolder, and it’s finally time to show Tess how beautiful the dark can be.”

Q gave everything to bring Tess back. In return, he expects nothing less. Tess may have leashed and tamed him, but he’s still a monster inside.

Genre: Romance/ Crime

Otherwise Occupied Trailer

Synopsis:

After Evan Arden was imprisoned by the enemy for a year and a half, he returned from the desert as a military hero. He’d suffered some minor injuries during his captivity, was discharged from the Marines with a touch of shellshock, but was considered otherwise unharmed. Now he wonders how he ended up where he is—incarcerated in Chicago’s Metropolitan Correctional Center for using his sharpshooting expertise to take out the neighborhood park with a high-powered sniper rifle and multiple rounds of ammunition.

Lia Antonio, the woman he rescued from the desert heat the previous year, is the only person who can bring him out of his sleep-deprived psychosis and mounting PTSD. When she does, Evan knows he can’t just let her go again. He’s never considered leaving the business before—who retires from the mafia?—but he’s determined to get both Lia and himself out of harm’s way.

Evan faces overwhelming forces from multiple directions as a deal to get him out of jail turns more dangerous than he imagined. With a mob war on the horizon and the feds holding evidence over his head, Evan has no choice but to throw himself into the middle of another warzone.

In his efforts to make things right, Evan crosses the wrong man and finds himself on the business end of the crosshairs. With his acute perception and intelligence, he tries to stay a step ahead of his former co-workers, but this time, it isn’t just his own life on the line—he’s got to protect Lia from the man who once called him son.

My Review:

If you are a fan of intense psychological thrillers, do not miss this last installment of the Evan Arden Trilogy! Evan is a shell of a man, he thinks he’s unloveable and he suffers terribly from painful memories of his past. Lia might be his savior and he will do anything to protect her. The storyline is incredibly creative, and the steam factor is off the charts!

This is a real page-turner, a true romantic suspense story. There are some memorable (and dangerous) characters here and Ms. Savage kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading this book. I loved the completely unpredictable plot and absolutely loved the chemistry between Evan and Lia! I highly recommend this book and series when you crave some major suspense and need a departure from a hearts-and-flowers story. Evan is an amazing character, and the writing is top-notch. I am glad I got to know Evan Arden!

BOOK TRAILER


“You may be blonde Trixie, but you’re far from being that stupid. You’re an evil bitch, who has no fuckin’ life so you get your kicks from making everyone around you miserable! You think Savannah‘s slap hurt, just remember I throw punches bitch, and I don‘t hold back. You even think about causing any more heartache for Savannah and I‘ll beat your ass seven-ways-to-Sunday!”

Clenching my fists I fight the urge to physically remove Trixie from my club. She needs to get the fuck outta here before I lose it. Dixon and Braxton must notice my entire body shaking with fury, because they leap to their feet, quickly trying to get Trixie to go elsewhere. I’m grateful when I spot them dragging her over to one of our bouncers and he escorts her out of the club.
Brooklyn glances at me momentarily over her shoulder, with her eyes scrunched together looking mad as hell before running after Savannah.
Fuck! Now Brooklyn’s pissed at me! So much for a fun relaxing weekend with my boys, this night has turned to shit. Jax had the right idea going straight to gambling.
“I have to go find Savannah, try to sort all this shit out, you guys coming or staying here?” Ranking my fingers through my hair, I look back to where Savannah disappeared to. I don’t see her or Brooklyn anywhere.
“We’ll hang here, have some more drinks. Maybe walk around chat up some people. Go find Savannah.” Braxton tells me clapping me on the back. “If you need us just shoot one of us a text.”
Not wasting any time, I maneuver through the crowed. There are people dancing by the tables making it hard to get through. With alcohol coursing through my veins my head is foggy, and every step I take my entire body feels off balance. I feel like a ping pong ball bouncing off of people as I try to find Savannah.
After what feels like an eternity, I finally spot Savannah and Brooklyn. My heart stops in my chest as my blood boils inside my veins when I see who they’re with. Standing beside Savannah, resting his hand on her fuckin’ arm is Shayne. I immediately see red.
Clenching my hands into fists along my sides, and taking in hard sharp breaths, I make my way towards them. Friend or not, seeing Shayne consoling my girl is too much after knowing he was all over her in LA last night. There’s people screaming and dancing all around me, but all I see is Savannah. My feet freeze in place as her eyes lock onto mine. The hurt I see in them is almost too much, but I’m too far gone to stop the course I’m on.

Taking long strides, I reach Shayne within seconds, with my anger sobering me up quickly. Savannah see’s the all too familiar look in my eye that says I’m ready to throw down. Friends don’t fuck with other friends women, especially one’s they’re engaged to.

Reaching out for me with desperation in her voice Savannah tries to stop me, “Kayden!”
Ignoring her I focus all my attention on Shayne. His lips instantly curl up in a Cheshire grin. “Hey, Knox.” He greets me with his laid back persona but his face shows me the truth. He has to know that I’ve read the bullshit story going around about Savannah and him. I threw this fuckin’ party for him, and he hasn’t even once tried to clear the air with me tonight. He’s shady as fuck, and I want nothing more than to knock that smug smile off of his fuckin’ face.
“Don’t try to act all fuckin’ friendly with me Shayne. I see straight through your bullshit. First you’re all over my girl last night, and now I find you yet again with her?”
Brooklyn and Savannah wanting to stop this before it escalates try to talk me down, but I drown them out. I put all my attention onto the piece of shit in front of me. He may think I’m to chicken shit to fight him because he does MMA, but he’s never been more wrong. I never back down from a fight, and never have I in my entire twenty six years ever lost a fight. I don’t intend on that changing tonight.
“Is there not enough women throwing themselves at you Shayne? You have to try and get with Savannah?” I spit out at him.
He throws his head back letting out a small chuckle. Taking a pull from his beer, Shayne shifts his eyes off of me, and onto Savannah. I immediately notice her become uncomfortable under his gaze, and drop her eyes immediately down to the floor.
Slamming his empty bottle down onto the table beside him, Shayne focus his attention back onto me, “If you want to get all territorial Knox, than I can too. I take it from the way you’re talking; Savannah hasn’t brought you up to speed on all of the men from her past. If she had, I know you sure as hell wouldn’t be throwing me this party tonight, and our friendship would’ve been over the minute you two got together.”
What the fuck is he talking about? Did I drink more than I thought tonight and I’m now hallucinating?

Reaching out to me, Savannah rests her hand on my forearm. I can feel her nerves bubbling over as her handshakes against my skin. The electricity that sparks between us the moment our skin connects is overwhelming. I’ve ached for her touch this entire time we’ve been apart, but now my feelings are all over the place I feel desire engulfed with a roaring fire of anger.

Her voice comes out shaky as she shouts over the music and chatter around us, “Kayden please don’t do this. Come with me please, so we can talk about this privately.”
I shake my head back and forth ever so slowly, as I bring my focus back to Shayne. “I’m not going anywhere. Not until Shayne here has his moment on his soap box. Go on Shayne; please enlighten me on your relationship with my fiancée?” My heart is hammering so forcefully against my chest that it feels like any second it’s going to burst out of my chest.
Leaning against the table and resting his hands on either side of himself Shayne turns to Savannah, “Sorry doll, I won’t let him walk around acting like I’m trying to stick my dick into his chick.”
The posse that’s filling Shayne’s VIP table has now focused their attention onto us and what’s transpiring.
“This is fuckin’ stupid. You two need to stop this pissing contest, and get over your freakin’ selves! You’re friends! Don’t let something so elementary come between you two. Kayden threw you this party for Christ sake!” Brooklyn says stepping between Shayne and me. The determination in her voice causes a knot in my stomach to form.

Raking my fingers through my hair, and letting out a sharp breath, I step around Brooklyn, causing Shayne to bring his attention back to me. Forcing myself between them, I fist his t-shirt causing everyone around us to gasp. Cell phones are turning on all around us as people begin taping our altercation.

“Say what you have to say, my patience is running thin!”
Shayne’s flashes a small smile up at me before reciprocating my actions, and fisting my shirt into his hand as well. “Don’t push me Knox, I never turn down a fight no matter who the fuck it is.”
A raspy chuckle escapes my mouth as Shayne’s words sink in. “I never back down either. I’d hate to beat your ass a week before the big fight, but you keep pushing me and you’ll leave me no other option. So say whatever the fuck you gotta say before I knock your ass out just for the simple fact that you had your mouth on Savannah last night.”
Shoving me off of him, he releasing his hold on my shirt looking at me and everyone who’s accumulated around us. Sliding his hand over his buzzed head Shayne finally begins to speak. He’s still has the same cocky grin on his face, but I can see anger erupting in his eyes as I stand toe to toe with him.
“You may have Savannah now, but I had her first. I helped her sooth her broken heart, and it was the best lay of my life. I had no idea handcuffing a woman to my car and fucking her brains out could be so arousing. I swear I sported a hard on for days after that. Every time I drive my car…” I can’t hear any more of this; I need to stop the vile words that are pouring out of his mouth. Without thinking, I connect my first with his face.
“You’re fuckin’ dead!” I scream as I block a punch he throws at me after the shock of being punched wares off. Fisting his shirt in my hands I rip him off of the table he fell back onto. Blood is pouring out of his nose, and the corner of his mouth. Spitting out some onto the floor, and wiping the rest away onto his shirt, Shayne stares me down. He throws another punch, this time connecting with my jaw. Instantly pain courses through my jaw and into my ear. Massaging my mouth, I flash him a small smile, “Come on Shayne, I know you can hit better than that!”
I can hear Savannah and Brooklyn screaming at us to stop somewhere behind us, but right now my entire focus is on the piece of shit who fucked her. I know it was before us but it still pisses me off, he continues to pursue her.

The next few seconds go by in a blur; we end up on the floor each taking punch for punch. The entire VIP area has formed a circle around us, and I know for a fact this shits going to go viral within the hour, but I don’t give a flying fuck at the moment.

I feel a pair of hands grab onto me pulling me off of Shayne, and I spin around to find one of my bouncers are dragging me away from Shayne, while another pulls Shayne off of the ground and escorting him out of the VIP area.
Looking around the crowd I no longer see Savannah anywhere. I spot Dixon and Braxton making their way through the crowd of people who are slowly returning to their partying now that the show’s over. Lifting my shirt up I wipe my mouth, my white t-shirt is now ripped and stained with blood.
“What the fuck was that!?” Dixon screams at me as security follows us to my office.
Giving him a, don’t fuck with me look, I ignore him and stock towards my office door. My head is too fucked up to process all this shit right now.
I can hear Braxton and Dixon talking behind me as we push our way through the crowd on the dance floor. The sound of Britney Spears and Will-I-Am bumping out of the speakers makes my head instantly pound.
Memories of Savannah dancing to this song plays in my mind like a movie, swaying her hips to Scream and Shout, as she climbed onto the stripper pole in our limo. Never in my life was so consumed with desire for a woman before Savannah. Ever since our first night together I’ve been addicted to her taste, her touch, needing it like an addict needs his next fix.
I can’t blame Shayne for wanting her; fuck any man with half a brain would want her. Just the fact that someone I’ve known for so long is the person trying to take her away from me is more than I can take.

BLOG TOUR, REVIEW and INTERVIEW: GABRIEL’S REDEMPTION by SYLVAIN REYNARD

December 3, 2013

Welcome to our stop on the Gabriel’s Redemption Blog Tour! We are beyond thrilled to bring you our 5-star review along with an interview with Sylvain Reynard himself. And scroll down to enter the amazing Rafflecopter giveaway. Enjoy!

Author: Sylvain Reynard
Title: Gabriel’s Redemption (Gabriel’s Inferno Series #3)
Publisher: Penguin Berkley

Summary:

From the author of the New York Times bestsellers Gabriel’s Rapture and Gabriel’s Inferno comes the epic conclusion to the captivating romantic trilogy.

Professor Gabriel Emerson has left his position at the University of Toronto to embark on a new life with his beloved Julianne. Together, he’s confident that they can face any challenge. And he’s eager to become a father.

But Julianne’s graduate program threatens Gabriel’s plans, as the pressures of being a student become all consuming. When she is given the honor of presenting an academic lecture at Oxford, Gabriel is forced to confront Julianne about the subject of her presentation—research that conflicts with his own. And in Oxford, several individuals from their past appear, including an old nemesis intent on humiliating Julia and exposing one of Gabriel’s darkest secrets.

In an effort to confront his remaining demons, Gabriel begins a quest to discover more about his biological parents, beginning a chain of events that has startling repercussions for himself, Julianne, and his hope of having a family.

I was thrilled when Sylvain Reynard announced that there would be a final book in the Gabriel’s Inferno Series. I could not get enough of Gabriel and Julianne and re-read both Gabriel’s Inferno and Gabriel’s Rapture several times when they were first released.

Gabriel’s Redemption, the third book in the series, is immensely satisfying and stunningly written. Even descriptions of simple acts such as eating or studying take on rich and layered meanings when written by Sylvain Reynard. And the love scenes between Gabriel and his beloved Julia took my breath away.

“In the months since their marriage, their desire had not abated, nor had the sweetness of their coupling. All speech melted into motion and touch and the bliss of physical love.”

This story takes place shortly after their marriage and shows the struggles that Gabriel and Julia — like most couples — must go through while building a life together. Will Gabriel overcome the guilt he feels about his past? Will Julia be able to reconcile Gabriel’s burning desire to start a family with her own educational ambitions? She, too, feels guilt and conflicting emotions over Gabriel’s plans for their future together.

“Gabriel was a consuming fire. His passion, his desires, all seemed to overtake the desires of those around him. He’d told her once that she was the only woman who’d ever said no to him. He was probably correct.”

Sylvain Reynard weaves in many Old Testament references which enrich the love story between Gabriel and Julia. Nicely balanced with the heavy themes of love, forgiveness and redemption are the funny comments by the Snarky Narrator, which lend an air of levity to the book.

The secondary characters that I love also make appearances in this book. Professor Picton is a strong influence on Julia and helps to guide her in making certain life-altering decisions including dealing with the evil Christa, who is still out to make trouble for the Emersons. We also see a glimpse into Paul Norris’ life and the dangerous Simon and Natalie also make appearances.

Gabriel’s devotion to Julia remains unwavering and I loved reading their scenes together. He still battles with feelings of inadequacy but Julia’s goodness helps him overcome his deep-seated feelings of guilt and self-loathing.

“Almost six months into their marriage he loved her more than before, he envied the very air she breathed.”

I also loved the way in which Julia grew as a person in this book, and became much stronger in her educational studies and in dealing with her professors and others who conspire against her. She also stands up to Gabriel, who is certainly a force to be reckoned with. Gabriel, too, grows as a person as he uncovers facts about his past that help him find closure to certain events in his life and bring him some measure of peace.

“I suppose we’re all on our own spiritual journeys.”
“Some of us are further along than others.”

Sylvain Reynard did a spectacular job of concluding Julia and Gabriel’s story in this book. Once again, Sylvain delivers a richly detailed and deeply-felt story that will stay with you long after you finish the last word. I was sobbing at the sheer beauty of this book and can’t wait to read more from Sylvain Reynard.

Interview with Sylvain Reynard:

And now…we couldn’t believe our luck in snagging an interview with SR himself! With many thanks to our dear friend Mags, the Bellas posed a few questions to the author and here are the results of our interview!

The Gabriel Series has brought readers together from all over the world because of their love for Gabriel and Julia. In fact, I have made several close friendships with wonderful readers from all over the world because of your books! Did you ever anticipate this effect when you were writing these stories?

Hello Book Bellas. It’s a pleasure to be with you and your readers.

Thank you. When I began writing about the Professor, I had no idea anyone would ever read my writing. Everything has been completely unexpected. One of the things I enjoy most about being a writer is interacting with readers from around the world. Through Twitter and Facebook, I regularly speak with readers in South America, Asia, Europe, Australia and New Zealand, the Mid East, and Africa. It’s like visiting the UN without leaving my desk.

Why do you think the themes of love, redemption and forgiveness have resonated so deeply with your readers?

Simply put, I think these themes represent what are most important and most essential to humanity. I don’t think I could write a novel that didn’t include these elements to some extent.

What would be the anthem of your life?

That’s a good question, but a difficult one. I’ve always liked “40” by U2.

Who would play you in a biopic of your life?

A computer. It would have to be a Mac, however.

For the Bellas, there is only one Professor Gabriel O. Emerson, and that is the one and only David Gandy. Whom do you envision as Gabriel?

Many readers have told me that David Gandy is their ideal Professor. I’ve also heard from readers who prefer Henry Cavill.

When I began writing the novel, I envisioned someone like Clive Owen as the Professor. But I was told fairly early on by readers that I was wrong – that is not who the Professor is. So I’ve learned to keep my mouth shut on the issue and simply to smile at nod at whomever is suggested …

Well. We digress but let’s take a quick look at both Mr. Clive Owen and Mr. David James Gandy:

image

image

Okay… one more look:

image

image

Hmmm…both handsome men for sure, but Mr. Gandy will always be our beloved Professor Emerson!

City or country?

City. Specifically, Florence.

We certainly agree with SR on that choice.

image

Favorite beverage?

Much as I enjoy alcohol, I need coffee.

Your supporting characters play an integral role in Gabriel and Julia’s story. Will we see any of them again in the future?

It’s possible. Readers have asked about Paul, for example. And I’m particularly fond of Katherine Picton.

But I can tell you that readers will be seeing more of the Professor. He has a cameo in my next novel, “The Raven,” which is the first in a new series. “The Raven” is a paranormal love story and readers can learn more about it here.

Many thanks to Sylvain Reynard for “sitting down” with us today! And congratulations on the amazing Gabriel’s Redemption!

Author Bio:

I’m interested in the way literature can help us explore aspects of the human condition – particularly suffering, sex, love, faith, and redemption. My favourite stories are those in which a character takes a journey, either a physical journey to a new and exciting place, or a personal journey in which he or she learns something about himself/herself.

I’m also interested in how aesthetic elements such as art, architecture, and music can be used to tell a story or to illuminate the traits of a particular character. In my writing, I combine all of these elements with the themes of redemption, forgiveness, and the transformative power of goodness.

I try to use my platform as an author to raise awareness about the following charities: Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation, WorldVision, Alex’s Lemonade Stand, and Covenant House. For more information, see my Twitter account.

Today we are thrilled to bring you our review of REMY by Katy Evans along with a fantastic giveaway!

Book Title: Remy
Author: Katy Evans
Date of Publication: November 26, 2013
Publisher: Gallery Books

Synopsis

Underground fighter Remington Tate is a mystery, even to himself. His mind is dark and light, complex and enlightening. At times his actions and moods are carefully measured, and at others, they spin out of control.

Through it all, there’s been one constant: wanting, needing, loving, and protecting Brooke Dumas. This is his story; from the first moment he laid eyes on her and knew, without a doubt, she would be the realest thing he’s ever had to fight for.

Goodreads Link

Reviewed by Ellen:

Katy Evans has written an intensely sexy book which perfectly ends Brooke and Remy’s roller coaster ride that began in Real. Katy’s intimate portrayal of Remy’s innermost thoughts and feelings is always fascinating, and at times heartbreaking, as the reader witnesses his constant struggle to love, be loved and simply live in the world.

Remy is not a standalone book by any means and I recommend you read Real and Mine first. Katy has created an unforgettable character in Remington Tate and her books have resonated with legions of fans, myself included. I absolutely loved reading Remy’s POV and devoured this book almost in one sitting. Remy is almost painfully flawed as a human being but is also desperate find love and some kind of balance in his life. His struggles are, for me, the crux of this story. I loved him through all his highs and lows and hoped he would get his HEA!

You know you are getting loads of steamy sex if you have read Real and Mine. And Katy Evans really delivers on the hot and VERY primal sex scenes in Remy. Whew! It is Remy’s POV, after all. Remy and Brooke’s scenes together are totally hot. And very, very satisfying.

I absolutely loved the conclusion to Remy and Brooke’s story, but I was a little sad to reach the end of this book! Like all of Katy’s fervent fans, l feel very connected to Remy and Brooke and hope that we hear a little more from them in the next two books, Ripped and Raw. I give Remy 5 swoony stars!!
