I could have just sat there looking into his eyes all night, but his lips were only inches from mine. With that realization, a need grew inside me. I had to taste him. I needed to kiss his lips and let him know that I was his. Slipping my arms around his neck, I closed the distance between us, gently kissing his bottom lip.
He grunted, and I pulled away.
“Did I hurt you?” I asked.
His mouth tugged up in a playful smirk. “Sweetheart, I hurt all over. But don’t ever stop kissing me. It’s worth the pain.”
His swollen eye grabbed my attention again. I brushed it lightly and then kissed his eyebrow and his swollen cheek. I wanted to kiss away all the hurt.
I pulled away and took his injured hand. “Ian, we need to—”
He didn’t let me finish, instead he pulled me into his arms and kissed me hard. I tasted metal and salt in his mouth; he tasted like a fighter. Brutal and powerful and strong. I wanted more. Even with his injured hand, he pulled me onto his lap so that I was straddling him.
“We need to take care of some unfinished business,” he grunted as he pressed my center into him. He was already hard, and my body ached for his.

Cade’s always taken risks…

Cade takes cares of his sick younger sister by doing what he does best--cage fighting and starring in adult movies, his newest harebrained moneymaking scheme designed to pay for his sister’s growing medical bills. But when his latest gig finds him admitted to the ER sporting an erection from hell, thanks to the little pill given to him by the director, he can’t get the pretty little nurse who treated him out of his head, even though he knows she’s so far out of his league it should be illegal.

Alexa’s always played it safe…

Tired of being pigeonholed as the sweet, innocent one, hardworking nursing student Alexa has been looking for ways to break out of her Goody Two-shoes image. When her friend suggests the outlandish idea of losing her virginity to the sexy and sure-to-be-skilled porn star, Alexa is mortified. But then when Cade refuses her proposition, she finds herself pissed off and embarrassed. When she tracks him down to give him a piece of her mind, she isn’t prepared for what she finds. Watching him care for his little sister tugs at her heart, and suddenly it’s no longer just about losing her virginity, but about helping Cade. Because Lord help her, she might actually be falling for a porn star…

NEW RELEASE + GIVEAWAY: FILTHY BEAUTIFUL LUST by KENDALL RYAN

From New York Times & USA Today bestselling author, Kendall Ryan, comes the third book in the Filthy Beautiful Lies series.


Pace Drake loves sex. He knows where get it, what to say, what to do, and he makes no apologies for satisfying his needs. But when he meets single mom, Kylie Sloan, he's enthralled by her, and begins to question his standard operating procedure. After all, there's no chase, no mystery when banging a woman in a nightclub bathroom. Kylie's depth and determination make the sloppy, drunken hookups that fill his weekends seem empty and shallow. She's the opposite of the desperate, clingy women he's used to. She doesn’t want or need anyone to take care of her and that only makes him want to care for her more.

Kylie's trust in men has vanished. The last guy she was with played ding-dong-ditch-it with her uterus and left her with a baby to raise. Now her infant son is the only man she has time for, even if she misses sex and intimacy more than she'd ever admit. Opening her heart up to a younger man who's best known for no-strings-attached sex and his casual lifestyle is probably the worst idea she's ever had. But Pace wants to prove to her there are still a few good guys left, and watching the sweet way he interacts with her baby makes her want to try…but she can really trust that his days of hitting it and quitting it are in his past?

Filthy Beautiful Lust is the third book in the Filthy Beautiful Lies series, however it can be read as a standalone novel (no cliffhanger). To understand the full growth and development of the characters, it is recommended that you begin with book 1, Filthy Beautiful Lies.

CHAPTER 1

PACE

I still recall that day in the pool last summer when I'd taken the crying baby from her and entertained him all afternoon. I couldn't even be sure why I'd done it. I suppose, looking back, she just looked like she could use a hand. I've never liked seeing a woman struggle. Although a damsel in distress, she is not. I get the sense she's not the type to back down from a challenge and has enough strength and determination to succeed at just about anything she tried. A sexy quality, to be sure.

As we stand there, me sipping my bourbon, and Kylie grinning politely at the crowd, the silence between us grows. I feel like we have nothing in common, and I'm at a loss, trying to think of something to say, anything that will keep this beauty in my presence. There are so many things I want to know about her, but none of them are any of my goddamn business. How she tastes, what noises she makes when she comes. I also want to know how she ended up a single mother, and if Max's dad is still in the picture. I tried asking Colton about it once, but he remained incredibly vague. The asshat. If there was a worst wingman award, it would go to my brother.

"Have dinner with me this week," I say. It wasn't what I'd been planning to say, but once the words leave my mouth, they feel right.

"Pace, that's sweet of you to ask, but I can't…" She pauses, like she wants to say more, but doesn't. Her body language is all wrong too. Where women are normally vying to get closer, placing their hand on my bicep, or even brushing their breasts against my arm, Kylie stands straight and tall, like she wants to avoid physical contact at all costs.

"Are you here with someone?" I ask. It's also absolutely none of my business, but I'd happily shell out ten grand just to find out if she's fucking someone.

"No," she confirms.

"No boyfriend?" I press further. I need to know what I'm up against.

"There's been no one since Max's father," she says quietly.

My inner alpha male beats on his chest in triumph. "That's quite a dry spell."

"Indeed," she murmurs.

"It's just dinner, Kylie. It's not like I'm offering to step in and play daddy." I treat her to a playful, crooked smile, my dimple out in full force. I've heard it's quite irresistible and that's what I'm banking on.

"That's exactly why I can't. I'm sorry."

Fuck. Why am I such a fucking idiot?

"Oh," I stammer, at a loss for words for the first damn time in my life. Christ. Grow a pair, Pace.

"Besides, something tells me if you're interested in a woman like that," Kylie tips her chin toward the bar where Sheena, or Trina, is making a spectacle of herself, "you can't possibly be interested in a woman like me."

Hold the fuck on. Now that's where she's wrong. "Why's that?" I ask, meeting her fiery green gaze. If she's about to criticize herself, I will not hold back in proving to her how very wrong she is.

"Pace," she admonishes. "Look at her. They look…inflatable."

When I realize she's not tearing herself down, but instead chastising my taste in women, I almost want to laugh. "A woman like that is good for only one thing and we both know it," I say.

She raises her eyebrows, waiting for me to explain.

"One good fuck," I continue.

"You're crass." Her eyes light up, and her mouth twitches in an attempt not to smile.

"I'm direct, and you like it."

She shrugs. "At least you're honest. That's more than I can say for most men."

"Go out with me. One time, Kylie. What do you have to lose?"

I can practically see the wheels turning in her head, and for one brief, beautiful moment I think I might have a chance. "Bye Pace." She turns and walks away, her long legs carrying her across the room while my heart throbs.

Fuck.

"Kylie, wait."

She turns and tosses me a sexy wink. "Go have fun with Malibu Barbie.

This is not over.

I play to win.

SUMMER READING SATURDAY: SEXY, STEAMY, SMUTTY EDITION

This Saturday's Summer Reading Series post is all about Sexy, Steamy, and Smutty! Enjoy! 

The farther we get into summer, the harder it is getting to find (for me, anyways!) NEW stuff to recommend, since so much of the books we have loved and like to read can cross over most of our categories! So this week, I plan to try really hard not to highlight a book I have used already...so here goes!! (P.S. If I fail at this quest...my deepest apologies!) Meanwhile...I'm sticking with what I know which is probably stuff I've already mentioned about 100 million times. Sorry guys! 

Up In Flames by Nicole Williams. I had read some of her stuff (Crash series) and loved it, so I jumped on this stand alone. (And stand alones can be refreshingly good sometimes when in a book hangover!) This story is about a flame jumper, I think he was called....aka he jumps out of helicopters during forest fires to rescue people on the ground. Summer romance, check. Forbidden/somebody has a significant other (cue angst) love, check. Super sexy times, double check! Great New Adult read, and super fast + perfect for a summer read.I haven't read this--but am now intrigued.Hmm.

Down to You by M. Leighton. Smooth talking club owner...even smoother talking lawyer...and twins. Holy smokes! These brothers will melt your panties right off...and the story will get you wrapped up right to the shocking end...I don't see a lot coming, and you may not be surprised, but I almost fell out of my chair with how things ended. Lucky for you...book 2 is published already, but we can all wait together for the 3rd one! I have read this one and h-o-l-y smokes...some of those caused my Kindle to steam.

Hard to Love by Kendall Ryan. I think I have loved everything  I've read by Kendall so far, and this one was no different. I had to know how things would go down when the blurb includes a) a porn star in the ER after taking viagra + b) the sweet nurse who takes care of him that still wants to get with him anyways....but the real kicker, even after all of that, is that he's doing whatever he has to to take care of his little sister....swoon! Okay, and it does fall into the sexy, steamy, and smutty category. Read Kendall's Tweets if you don't believe me ;) Yet another new author for me to add to my list of authors to read! I see my one-click finger getting twitchy.

Confessions of an Alli Cat by Courtney Cole. Here is where I fail and think I've mentioned this book before, but I really, really loved it, so sue me...I'm mentioning it again! About a recent divorcee trying to get her groove back in hilarious and awkward ways....I mean.this is in the blurb

Alli’s idea of “trying new things” is nothing like that devil-of-a-best-friend of hers. Somehow, Sara, the devil of a best friend, talks Alli into trying out a sex toy, sleeping with a younger man and letting a stranger in a lab jacket put hot wax on a place that should never, ever, ever see wax. And that’s only the beginning.

So I think we can all agree there is intrigue here....and when the younger man keeps popping up in her life outside of the sex club he works in....holy hell....her luck sucks, but it makes for a lot of sexy, steamy, and smutty scenes. Shel if you ever read this one, I am totes reading it with you! I haven't read it but I've seen it around. My TBR list just got a lot longer. Bye bye bank account.

Okay, I think I've relived these books in my head enough...Shel...what qualifies as Sexy, Steamy, and Smutty to you!!

Well...I think my suggestions would be remiss if I didn't post

the one series that got this whole smut/erotica/smexy thing out and in the public eye...we all know which one I'm talking about, right? Fifty Shades of Gray by E.L. James. It started a whole slew of women reading and talking and probably refreshed some marriages.Haha. It's smut-tastic. It's practically a sexual dictionary--need a new move or idea? Pick this series up and you'll have plenty of things to work with. **Late add! Sorry!** I was looking through my goodreads read books, and I read this last June...Wow..definitely kick started my newfound book obsession, but I can't believe it's already been a year! What a wild year it has been! 

I recently finished the This Man series by Jodi Ellen Malpas 

and let me tell you that this series was sexy, sexy, sexy. Throw in some British humor, some intrigue, some angst, and love and you've got yourself this delicious treat of a series. I cannot wait to see what Courtney thinks of it. I giggled and sighed and raged in various parts of the all three books. I'm kind of sad it's finished and cannot wait to see what she publishes next. **Reading this now...holy moly...it's going to be insane, I can already tell!**


Another steamy, not to be missed book is Tidal by Emily

Snow. This book features a young actress trying to sort out her life post-rehab and a hot surfer guy. It's set in Hawaii and after reading it I had to physically restrain myself from packing my family up and becoming a surfer girl there. It just sounded so appealing! I think all of Emily's books are smokin' hot and this one was no different. A great summer read if you haven't read it yet! I have this, but haven't read it! Obvs, I should rectify that in my spare time! ;) 



Want one that packs in sexy, steamy, and smutty? Try The Blackstone Affair series by Raine Miller. Yet another series set in London--apparently I'm obsessed? This series follows around an American girl with secrets, a dangerous stalker, and a British guy who's hired to protect her. All three books in this series are out and are super fast to read. OOOhh! One I love too! I read Naked a while back, and have book 2, but for reasons unknown haven't gotten to it! 


Hey! I did it!! I managed to suggest reads that I really haven't talked too much about in our blog--go me!!! We hope you enjoy these hot reads--you may need to sit in the A/C or take a cold shower to cool off after reading them! Feel free to post your favorites in our comments! Happy Reading.
