My WTF Wednesday Post


Happy Hump day everyone! I have been having a great reading week. I finished reading "Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night" by Kresley Cole (Immortals After Dark series). I really like this series, but so far none of them beat the first book in my opinion.
I then decided it's been far too long since I've read a historical romance or a book by Lisa Kleypas so I picked up "Worth Any Price" by the fabulous Kleypas. The hero in this book is quite possibly my favorite hero of all her books. I'll get more into that when I post my review - soon.

After I finished that book (which I could not put down) I picked up another Breeds book by Lora Leigh. These books are hit or miss with me so they often tend to sit in my TBR pile for a while. Since "Soul Deep" is my favorite Breed book (and hottest sex book of the year-see my review- tag cloud) I decided to read the next Coyote book in the numerous Breed series.
That means I am currently reading "Coyote's Mate"...I haven't formed an opinion on this book yet but it is much, much more into the back story and labs than "Soul Deep" was. Not sure if I like that or not at this point. I hope to finish this by Thanksgiving and get a review up for the weekend.

"Shameless Embraces" by Lora Leigh


It's been six months since I read an erotic romance by Lora Leigh and even longer since I've read one of her steamy menage erotic books. But this month I picked up "Shameless Embraces" by Lora Leigh and it felt like last March all over again! Shameless Embraces is another book in the Bound Hearts menage series about men who share their women with other men to give their women the ultimate pleasure of having two guys at once. This book is actually two stories "Embraced" and "Shameless".

Synopsis:
Embraced: Book 6 in the Bound Hearts series.

"Marey has run from herself and from Sax for over three years. Lost years, hiding in the home her parents left her, living on the fantasy, too wary to reach out and make real the dreams of the life and man that torment her.
Sax Brogan is the embodiment of sinful and sexy-tall, dark, handsome and every inch of him the fantasy of Marey's dreams come to hot, throbbing life. And he's more than ready to claim his woman. Now the time has come for Marey to stop running and embrace not just the fantasy he represents, but also the reality. That is, if her ex-husband will let her live long enough to enjoy it.
Shameless: Book seven in the Bound Hearts series.
She's a temptation he can't afford.
Ian Sinclair, the man with no heart, the ultimate Trojan, the untouchable, the unreachable, may just have met his match.
As wild as the untamed winds, as innocent as love itself, Courtney's vivacious spirit shines as brilliantly as the brightest star. And he wants nothing more in life than to see the sweet innocence that is so much a part of her survive. That can never happen if he allows her to be drawn into the wicked, sexual excesses of his life.
He's a hunger she can't deny.
Courtney Mattlaw has understood her destiny her whole life. Her lifetime of happiness hangs on this moment in time, and forcing a man who feels he is unable to love, to trust his heart.
Haunted. Filled with loneliness. Incomplete. Ian is the very breath of her soul. She knows the battle to steal his heart could ultimately destroy them both, but it's a risk she must take.
When these two come together, sparks fly and the lust simmering between them ignites in a conflagration that will burn them to their souls and leave them … Shameless."

When I want to read some steamy erotica Lora Leigh is the author I go to first. While all the menages in this series begin to blur and all look the same, its still a fun read for Lora Leigh fans. The first book "Embraces" was all about Marey being hesitant about taking that step with Ian knowing that he would require her to partake in a menage- which she wanted but was afraid of. The second book was about Courtney knowing exactly what she wanted with Ian, but getting him to get over his hesitation in taking her there. The first story was just OK, nothing memorable and Marey and Sax were not my favorite characters in this series.
The second book was much more fun and engaging for me. I felt the story was more developed with Ian having personal issues from his past haunting him and Courtney being a smart young woman who knows what she wants and doesn't let fear of rejection stop her from trying to win the man she's loved for years. There is HOT chemistry between Courtney and Ian from the very beginning and it smolders until Ian snaps and finally gives them both what they want- hawt on fire sex. The threesome (when Ian finally gets to it) is sexy and introduces us to Khalid another guy in the club who likes to share women. Good story with hot sex.


I give this book 3 stars out of 5 stars.

My Weekend Round-Up


This weekend I have been reading and watching Netflix DVD's while I wait to get over this nasty cold I have. If you were reading my blog last March, you might recall that March is "Menage Month" on my blog. That means every book I read for the entire month of March has at least one menage sex scene in it.
Well I had dozens of menage books that I read that month and a few left over. This weekend I picked up one of the left over menage books; "Shameless Embraces" by Lora Leigh. This is actually two books in one -"Embraced" and "Shameless" and they are part of the 'Bound Hearts' series about men who share their women with other men in three-somes to give her the ultimate pleasure of two men at once. I read most of this series last March, but like I said there were just so many menage books to read in a month I couldn't finish them all! My review of "Shameless Embraces" will be posted tomorrow.

Now for the DVD's I watched. I've mentioned before on my blog how much I enjoy watching British television and movies ('Robin Hood', 'Vicar of Dibley', 'Two Fat Ladies cooking show' etc). Well this week I decided to try a series called "Skins" that is highly rated on Netflix.
Skins is about a bunch a college friends mucking up their daily lives in various assorted ways. Each character is very different from the next with their own issues, quirks and likability.

My favorite male character is Sid (guy in the hat and glasses) and my favorite female character is Cassie (blonde nutcase with food issues).
For whatever reason, Youtube is disabling ALL the video links to this show (I friggin hate that), but you can watch them on BBC America. It's too soon for me to rate this show, as I've only watched the first DVD in season 1 and have many more to view, but so far its made me want to see more.

I want to take a moment to say thank you for all the people who nominated me for blog awards this year. I really appreciate it.
The last two months when I took some time off from blogging I slacked off on posting the awards I received and I am really sorry about that. I just couldn't seem to keep up with blogging and life during that time, so I hope you'll forgive me for not posting the awards.

I hope to do better in the future about posting awards asap and to that endeavor I will start with thanking Rex Robot Reviews for awarding me with the 'Kick Ass Blog Award' over on her blog today. Thanks Rex Robot! I appreciate it.

The rules are you must post about the award and then nominate five other blogs to give the Kiss Ass Blog Award to.

It's so hard to pick just 5 blogs out of the many that I think are wonderful kick ass blogs. But here are my 5 picks in no particular order.

KB's "Babbling about books and more" blog - an assortment of interesting topics/book reviews can always be found on KB's blog.

Author Kendra Leigh Castle's Blog - Kendra is a wonderful author who has a fun blog that is a must stop every day for me.

Author Cheryl Brooks Blog - is a hot erotic blog filled with hot nekkid men, recipes, photos of Cheryl's home life, her trips and some short erotic stories she writes (check out her m/m erotic short stories- HAWT stuff!). *Adults only blog- full frontal nudity*

Cecile's All I Want and More Blog - this blog is by self proclaimed Hussy Cecile. You will find book and movie reviews, some of Cecile's own short stories and assorted thoughts and topics.

Lea's "Closetwriter" blog - Lea's blog has great book reviews, contests, FYI's on up coming book releases, author news and more. This is another must stop blog for me.

2010 Movie Trailers

Movies to look forward to...

This first one I like because its got Nicolas Cage in it, and I like him.


This looks amusing, different and interesting.


This one...wow...just wow. Great special effects.


Cool! Looks great!


Creepy...


And the one my kids can't wait to see because they LOVE the books...


VAMPIRES rule the world...for a while...


I hope this one is as good as it looks...


I love Johnny Depp...he's looking too creepy in this one!


So which movies are you looking forward to seeing? Three movies I want to see next year aren't included in this list. The first is "Remember Me" starring Robert Pattinson. I didn't repost it because I've already posted it twice on my blog. The second is "Brothers" again, already posted on my blog. And the third is "Eclipse" (3rd Twilight movie) which is done filming but has not yet released any photos or tidbits of the movie. As soon as I get any of those I will be posting them as that is my favorite book of the series and the movie I have most been waiting to see.
