BLURB:
New York Times bestselling paranormal author, Nicky—Nick—Love is anything but successful in
love. For years he’s lost himself in his writing career, but now he’s ready to
get back to his rebel-boy roots. While restoring a motorcycle at Stone’s Auto
Service, he meets the Wildcat of his dreams. She’s a shock to the system for
the romance writer who doesn’t remember a damn thing about wooing a woman.
Cool-as-ice, Catarina “Wildcat” Steele is utterly
untouchable until Nicky ignites a spark she can’t control. Their electric
attraction explodes as Nicky pursues her, but he comes bearing the baggage of a
family tragedy he’s hidden from everyone. He knows love has no guarantees.
Their passionate romance falls apart when Nicky discovers
Cat’s secret rivals his own. The truth about her past reopens Nicky’s raw
wounds and awakens a ghost he never laid to rest. He doesn’t know how to have
Cat, and now he can’t trust her. Will they be torn apart . . . or tamed by love?
Where do I even start?? I fell in love with Nicky Love in Stone, At Your Service which was the first book in the series. In that book Nicky who's a paranormal erotic romance author. He has a very big, crazy & stalker fans. He came up with plan. Everybody thought he was gay. And, it worked until people kept questioning where his boyfriend was. Enter his best friend Josh Stone. They went to a convention and Josh fell head over heals in love with LeeLee.
Now, with his cover has been blown, Nicky bought a new motorcycle and has been restoring it in Josh's garage. That's where he meets Catarina Steele. She's his "Wildcat" After their first conversation when she slapped him. Catarina is feisty and very closed off to everyone, except her 2 brothers. Her brothers Brodie & Boomer are high up in their MC and are very, very protective of their sister and with a very good reason.
Josh & LeeLee are preparing for their wedding. Nicky of course is Josh's best man. Ever since his best friend fell in love and it's in his face 24/7 he realizes he wants that. His Mimi, his dog, Josh and his son JJ & Josh's mom along his the guys at the garage are his family and he loves them. But, he's definitely missing that something more.
The more time Cat & Nicky spend together their chemistry and connection just keep getting hotter & stronger that they stop fighting. You'd hope it would just go from there. Except both of them have their secrets. Only Cat's brothers know her secrets. As for Nicky nonody except his Mimi knows his. Not even Josh knows.
Both Nicky & Cat have become so closed off because of their secrets. Cat doesn't trust many people. Nicky has become filled with guilt.That neither one of them know how to be in a relationship. It becomes doomed from the start. They have to find a way to say their secrets outloud and hope the other one doesn't run for the hills.
I absolutely loved this story!! The relationship Nicky & Josh have is really the best. They still joke and go back & forth. Joke about everything. Constantly try to out due the other one. And, still be serious and be there for each other. The guys from the garage are still funny as before and still up to their old antics. The hens and everyone else from the convention are still big in this book. Their twitter conversations between them, Nicky & LeeLee had me hysterical. And, watching Cat grow and open up was great to watch!! Plus, the hotness level... OMG!!! Was off the charts. These 2 definitely had it and them some. My kindle smoked 1/2 the time I was reading it.
I am so looking for to Ride the novella that comes out next. Then, Cat's brother Brodie's book Steel, Into Your Heart comes in April. And, I am counting down the days to get my hands on them bad boys!!

EXCERPT:
“You get to me and I don’t want to be got
at.” Cat slung herself into the chair next to mine.
“I like getting under your skin.” Pulling her chair closer, I pinned her
legs between mine. I caressed along her neck until I cupped her face. “If you
give us a shot, I guarantee I’ll make it worth your while.”
She slammed her lips against mine. This kiss was volatile and urgent as
our tongues fucked against each other. I slipped back for a moment, listening
to her jarred breaths. That goddamn ponytail had to go. I freed the elastic as
she unbuttoned the shirt I’d thrown on earlier. Playing with the line of hair
down my torso led Cat to my jeans. Her palm cupped my hard cock hidden beneath
the rough fabric.
Fuck. FUCK!
Straight black sheaths of sweet smelling hair fell to her waist. “Jesus
Christ, Cat.”
My fingers spun through the silken strands. When she claimed my mouth
once more, that black velvet curtain closed around us. With one hand at the
back of her head, the other on her waist, I pulled her into me. The sweet wet
pressure of her mouth and tongue made me dizzy. Her gasps and moans were hot as
hell.
“Stand up for me,” I ordered.
When she did, I kicked her chair away. She stood between my spread legs.
Her pale blue irises were almost eclipsed by her pupils as she gazed down at
me.
I skimmed a knuckle along the buttons on the front of her shirt. “Any
more ink?”
“Maybe you’ll have to find out.”
I unbuttoned her up-to-the-throat, down-to-the-wrists top. Underneath was
a scant black bra, the cups overflowing with mounds of flesh.
I gave her a wicked grin. “I can’t think of anything I’d like to do more
than uncover you inch by inch.”
Kissing her stomach, I listened to her gasp. I worked her shirt down her
arms, leaving it bunched at the wrists by the cuffs. The flat of my hand moved
down the center of her body and back up. When I reached the front clasp of her
bra, I gave it a tug. “Can I?”
She inhaled shakily. “Yes.”
I unclasped the hook, and oh holy shit. Her tits burst forth. I rocked
back in my seat and stared. “Maybe not any more ink, just these beauties?”
“Nicky,” she whimpered.
That was the best sound on the planet, but it wasn’t to be outdone by the
sight right in front of me. I touched the very tip of one nipple, barely
holding myself in check. But fuck, I wanted to feast on her with my eyes before
I sucked on her with my mouth. Her teardrop-shaped tits were topped by
plum-colored nipples. But that wasn’t it, not by a long shot. Cat’s sexy,
dusky-colored nipples were fucking pierced. I circled one with my fingertip,
then the other. I tucked my finger into the dangling filigree decoration
hanging from one piercing and flicked it.
“Nicky,” she groaned, her hands digging into my hair.
I lifted my mouth to her, sucking a hot, pert pearl of flesh into my
mouth. Sucking it in, letting it slip out. Nibbling on the jewelry, I tugged
with my teeth it until she moaned. And because I was pretty damn sure I’d never
get enough of having my face in her tits, I moved to the other one. Licking,
tonguing, suckling. Oh yeah. The
suckling, she liked that, maybe as much as I was getting off on it. Her moans
escalated the longer I held her nipple and jewelry in my mouth, curling my lips
around her. Grunting, I moved into the deep valley between. I lapped there too.
I sat back for a moment. Her tits glistened and the color of her peaks
was even deeper. Her skin was pink from my face rubbing against her. The
piercings swayed with each of her breaths, her hips did too, silently asking
for more.
“Sexiest woman I’ve ever seen,” I growled.
I reached up and pulled her face to mine. My lips were rough on hers. She
was just as hungry, lashing her tongue into my mouth, rasping it across my
teeth and cheeks.
I let her go. I needed more of her breasts. “I’m gonna be here awhile.
You don’t mind, do you?”
She quickly shook her head. Her long black hair swished around her back.
Her mouth opened, but all that came out was a long low mewl. The sound set my
stiff cock right on the edge of release. I swooped down to nuzzle and tease her
some more. With my hands clasped at her waist, my thumbs circled her taut
belly, which trembled.
I unbuttoned her jeans. “How about this, darlin’? Is this okay?”
Her nails scratched across my scalp, pulling me closer.
I’d take that as a yes.

January 8, 2015
BLURB:
The full, sexy, New Adult
version of RIDE, the novella featured in Stone, At Your Service, Carolina Bad Boys series.
College man Jase Everly
has bad boy written all over him. Rides a
motorcycle? Check. Has tats? You
bet. Couldn't give a shit about rules? He's
all over that.
When he's cut off from
the oil baron family funds, he finds a new way to support his education, his
bike habit, his bad habits. And his business venture is nothing he's proud
of.
Top-notch student Avery
Greene is a good girl. Deans List, never
missed a class, straitlaced material. She's on the college fast track until one
night and one jock destroy her life. She
hides inside her sweaters. She buries her nose in her books.
She ignores the pain
inside her, and she's sure she hates Jase from the moment she lays
eyes on him.
The
problem is—Avery needs someplace to stay,
and Jase wants a roommate. They’re enemies at first sight. Now they’re going to
live together.
Roomies?
Maybe.
Romance?
Never.
That’s what she said.

children and many a wild and wonderful journey in between, Rie has come home to
her calling. Her work has been called edgy,

Really nice article. So glad you loved the book because I loved it too! I've been taken by Rie Warren in a way I'd only ever experienced with JR WARD. Can't get enough of her alpha characters - her fresh writing approach - the sense of humor - the sizzle between the sheets uh err pages - when they find their love interest. Rie & her characters own me! I'm helpless to do anything but read the minute she gives us a new story. AND SO DAMN FAST! With other best sellers, we wait year(s) for sequels to stories we love, But not with Rie! She pounds em out and demands they get into our hands faster than ..the the hens would blow Stone if given the chance! Which reminds me! Wasn't Stone a hoot in this round!? I loved all the glimpses of him & LeeLee - Stone the Barbarian, at times - Stone I don't give a f**k - Rhett Butler - and ahhhh Daddy Stone *sighs*. But Nicky was a wonderful - hot- sexy, surprise. I love that the humor was there but the drama cranked up a lot in LOVE. Theres so much to love about him - and Josh and all of Rie Warren's characters! Its a great time and an absolute STEAL at .99. **feel bad for Rie - I've paid so much more for such LESS reading experience** She really deserves an avalanche of success with this series I think. Thanks to all the bloggers who are helping get the word out.
ReplyDeleteGreat job covering a great new story - thanks!
