CRUSH AMAZONThe danger isn’t over.

It’s only just begun.

Circumstances brought them together and their undeniable connection won’t let them part. But when the past and the present collide, emotions run high—things are said, lines are crossed, and rules are broken. Both focused on crushing the enemy, the retribution is almost too much to bear. Still, there’s no undoing what has already been done, and every action has a consequence.

He loves her and she loves him, but love isn’t a shield.

Sometimes your only choice is the one you’d rather not make. Pushed to the limit, the tainted love of Logan and Elle is in jeopardy. With outside forces driving a wedge between them, they have to dig deep within their souls to release the ghosts of their pasts, and fight even harder for what neither knew they needed—each other.

Can love really conquer all?

Kim Karr is a New York Times, USA Today and Wall Street Journal Bestselling author.

She grew up in Rochester, NY and now lives in Florida with her husband and four kids. She’s always had a love for reading books and writing. Being an English major in college, she wanted to teach at the college level but that was not to be. She went on to receive an MBA and became a project manager until quitting to raise her family. Kim currently works part-time with her husband and recently decided to embrace one of her biggest passions–writing.

Kim wears a lot of hats! Writer, book-lover, wife, soccer-mom, taxi driver, and the all around go-to person of her family. However, she always finds time to read. One of her favorite family outings was taking her kids when they were little to the bookstore or the library. Today, Kim’s oldest child is seventeen and no longer goes with her on these, now rare and infrequent, outings. She finds that she doesn’t need to go on them anymore because she has the greatest device ever invented–a Kindle.

Kim likes to believe in soul mates, kindred spirits, true friends, and Happily-Ever-Afters. She loves to drink champagne, listen to music, and hopes to always stay young at heart.

          “You need help?” Chloe looked up and paused. “You look like you’re struggling.” She was stuck with one foot still inside her pants.

 

His skin was nice and tanned and his abs were rock solid, she could tell by just looking at them. The muscles in his chest and shoulders were sculpted, even his thighs had defined muscles.

 

She licked her lips when she spotted the tattoos on his arms and chest. One looked like a skull tat and the one on his arm kind of looked like a tiger but she couldn’t tell from her position.

 

            “Clothes. Off.” Chloe would have thought that was sexy if she wasn’t freaking out. She stood there, bent over, staring at his torso like she was stuck on stupid. “What is it?”

 

            “Are you photo shopped?” The man looked like he stepped out of an underwear ad for boxers. Her eyes traveled to his package. Holy shit! He was fucking huge. It was hanging down the side of his boxers and the head was sticking out of the leg part. No way that thing will fit.

 

            “Um, no?” He laughed. Jackass.

 

            “No one looks like that!” Chloe stood up. Okay, get the damn pants off.

 

            “You want me to put my clothes back on?” He motioned toward his clothes that were lying on the floor in a pile. The asshole was laughing at her.

 

            “No. No, that’s not necessary. Kind of defeats the purpose.” Chloe took her foot and stepped on her pants to pull her other foot out. She felt a little inadequate standing there in front of him. Yes, she exercised, but damn.

 

            “Are you sure? I can keep my clothes on.” Damon started to reach for his clothes.

 

            “Smart ass.” Chloe stood there in her red panties that were already wet, and a white tank top. Her skin was damp from sweat and she was hot. She really would like to take a shower but she didn’t want to wait.

 

            He reached for his jeans and pulled out his wallet. He tossed two condoms on the bed before he dropped his pants and looked at her. His eyes said ‘yeah, you’re in trouble’. 

 

            “You’re not undressed yet.” When he took a step toward her, she backed up a step but hit the chair. She had nowhere to go. What the hell, girl? Get it together. He’s just a man!

 

            Chloe reached down and pulled her tank top over her head. The next thing she knew, he was standing so close to her, she could feel his breath on her skin.

 

            “Are you scared?” He whispered in her ear. She felt his tongue on her neck and shivers ran through her body. No, she was nervous, not scared. Well, maybe a little. She held her breath while his trailed over her skin.

 

            He lifted her up and put her against the wall as he took her mouth with his. It was rough, demanding, and she loved it. When he pushed his dick against her panties and started to grind himself into her, she was ready to explode.

 

            A moan left her throat before she could stop it. She didn’t want to seem eager, desperate. But right now, that’s exactly what she was. She could feel her pussy muscles quiver with anticipation.

 

            “You’re wet. I like that.” He whispered in her ear. His hot breath on her sensitive skin and the feel of his dick against her clit made her come apart. Her orgasm hit her like a rocket.

 

            Damon leaned into her and removed his hands. The next thing she heard was the wrapper of the condom before she felt the head of his dick at her entrance.

 

            “Yes. Oh, God yes.” That’s all she could say. She felt him slide into her, her muscles clenching around him. OMG!  He stretched her insides to the point she thought she would rip.

 

            Damon raised her arms above her head and held them there. His mouth smashed into hers with force and intensity. It was raw and fast and just what she needed. This could turn out to be an awesome trip.

Excerpt

 

            “Do you know her?” Damon asked but he never looked away from the girl.
            “No, but I know she can ride. And won a lot of money.” Devin smiled and held up a wad of cash. Damon would bet it was at least two thousand dollars.
            “I’ll give it to her.” Damon grabbed the money out of Devon’s hand and headed toward the girl.
            “Damn man, give the rest of us a chance, dude.” Damon ignored him and jumped off of the platform. He stepped up on her right side just out of eye sight.
            “Your winnings.” When she turned to face him, he got a good look at her up close. She had green eyes, jet black hair that was wet from her helmet and bronze skin.
            Her tank top was damp from sweat and clung to her torso. He could see the outline of her breasts under her bra and her waist was small, emphasizing her ass and hips. She had long legs but she was petite enough to where he could pick her
up, throw her over his shoulder and carry her off with one arm. Caveman thinking, Damon.
            “Are you going to stare all night or give me my money?” Damon blinked. He looked down at the hand she was holding out waiting for him to hand her the money. When he looked up at her face, she had a small smile.
            “I’m not done staring yet.” She actually blushed.
            “You can hand over my winnings or I can take them from you. Your choice.” She tilted her head to the side just a little. Yeah, that would be fun.
            “I’ll take option two, after I buy you a drink. You know, to celebrate you winning.” Damon could tell everyone near them was watching and listening, but he didn’t care. He crossed his arms over his chest, money still in hand.

Release Day Blitz – War by Isabel Lucero

 

 

 

Title: War
Author: Isabel Lucero
 Release Date: March 16, 2015

 

Synopsis

 

My father was the leader of a protection racket; a criminal group that uses violence to ensure our clients won’t be harmed or robbed, and that their businesses will remain protected. What we do isn’t legal, but it’s the way we’ve lived for many years now.


Memphis Reed—my father—was formidable. He was a man people both respected and feared. He taught me everything he knew, and when he died I was left in charge.

Before his death, a battle was brewing on the streets. Lies were told, deceptions were made, and people were killed. People we thought we knew changed, relationships and friendships were torn apart, and loyalties were questioned. After his death, a full on war is raging, and Roman Rios—a man we now know we can’t trust—wants to move in on our business.

With me now being the leader of nine men, it’s up to me to protect them from Roman and his own crew of ruthless criminals. I’ll do whatever’s necessary to keep my business my own and protect everything my father worked for. Even if I have to go up against Xavier Delgado. Roman’s number two. A man with no heart and a black soul. A man Roman trained to be as vicious and cold-blooded as he is. A man who once upon a time I thought I was in love with.

Yes, I’m a she. My name is Chevelley Reed, and all’s fair in love and war.

Review

By Barbara Danks

Chevelley Reed, also know has C and Chelle, was born into a crime family that ran a Protection Racket business. Dangerous: totally, murder: absolutely, revenge: all of the time. Trained by her father in all aspects of the business, Chevelley was a force to be reckoned with; she always carried at least one gun and knew how to use it. When her father was murdered she picked up right where he left off by heading up the business that was made up entirely of men. These guys were hard core murderers, kidnappers, torturers, whatever it took to protect their customers as well as their own lives. This business was not for the faint of heart, but it was the only thing that Chevelley knew. She was born and bred on it.

Meet Xavier, lethal, badass, gorgeous and sexy! He also worked with his Father in the Protection Racket business until he died. Upon his death, Xavier was given an ultimatum by a man named Roman, who was the most evil man to walk the earth. This ultimatum gave him no choice but to work for Roman in his racket business. Roman’s goal was to put Chevelley out of business. He did not want competition. The only way to put people out of business in their world was to kill them off one by one by one!

This is a story about war between these two businesses. This is also a story about Chevelley and Xavier who before his father’s death were lovers. They had not seen each other for many years until they confronted each other with this impending war started by Roman. They were on opposing sides, but could they forget everything they had meant to each other, would death be their final fate? How far would a man go to protect the woman he loves?

If you are expecting a hearts and flowers erotic romance novel, this book is not for you. Isabel Lucero did a 180 with this change of genre. This book is hardcore, it is dangerous, it is murder, it is bloody and I loved it and think she gave us one hell of a great read. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!!!

Rosie’s Book Heaven was given an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
