**Adult Romance**

Benella is concerned with two things – avoiding the two village boys who torment her and scrounging for food to help feed her family. Unfortunately, the best wild fruit and vegetables are near the walls of the estate, a dark misty place inhabited by an unforgiving beast.

When her tormentors lock her behind the massive gates, Benella knows her fate is sealed. Yet, the fate isn’t one she expects. Her encounter with the beast starts a bizarre cycle of bargaining for her freedom, a freedom the beast seems determined to see her lose.

A classic fairy tale with a new twist, the Beauty and the Beast saga begins with Depravity.

Intended for mature readers due to sexual situations and moderate language.

Review by Sarah

Nicole Craig’s debut in the Susan Stoker Operation Alpha World was a hit. Like visiting with old friends. I loved getting to know Francesca and Tripoli (Ethan). The characters were well developed and enjoyed the suspense and intrigue. The hair tie on the wrist swoon worthy for me.

Can’t wait to see what Nicole brings to this world in the future.

A young brat and his buttoned-up best friend together for an unexpected and romantic weekend in Los Angeles. Is it a recipe for disaster or a chance at real love?

Archer has been in love with his best friend for years, but he’d never admit it out loud. Comparing every man he meets to the only man he wants, everyone falls short of the high ideal of Clint Taylor. On the heels of a date gone wrong, Clint ends up the last place either of them expect…Archer’s bed. There’s a kiss and another, and then everything changes.

Clint doesn’t understand some of the things Archer wants from him, but he knows he isn’t a quitter and Archer deserves the best. Determined to be the man and the Daddy Archer deserves, the two men find themselves together for a romantic and kinky weekend beneath the bright lights of Hollywood.

Archer is rich and Clint isn’t.
Clint is patient and Archer could never be.
Archer knows what he wants and Clint doesn’t believe he’s enough.

With so much stacked against them, is it too much to hope that love is the one thing that goes right?

Reel Love brings together a bratty boy, a Daddy who doesn’t know he’s a Daddy, a gorgeous L.A. backdrop, and enough steam to fog up all the windows in a high-rise hotel.

This book is part of the Destination Daddies multi-author series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but there are so many destinations and Daddies to discover, why not grab them all?

Review by Polly

This is my first read by either of the authors. I love a good MC story and Ms. Prince and Ms. McCabe have delivered ten-fold! Josh (Red) Luke discovers a woman laying at the side of the road, almost beaten to death – but still surviving. His military training (medic) kicks into high gear because he will never leave a “man” behind. Once he has the women safely under his care/protection – he immediately falls for her. Beaten to within an inch of her life and left for dead, Nova has a long battle of recovery in front of her. She witnessed her friend being killed…and the killer also thought he finished the job with Nova. Now the he knows she is alive – he wants her dead and is looking for her. Nova, or Roadkill (road name) is still trying to piece her memory and life back together. Waves of memories come and go and start falling back into place little by little. With the help of Red and the rest of the MC crew she is gaining strength and confidence back. Lots of twists and turns that kept the story interesting and something I couldn’t put down. Red and Roadkill are perfect for each other. They just need to take things one day at time to see what happens next. He wants her to be his ole lady…and she is just not wanting to be a piece of property. Great storyline, good pace, awesome characters. Can’t wait to dive into the rest of this series! It is a little on the long side – but you need to realize that you are getting to know the “world and workings” of the Steel MC Montana Charter.

He wouldn’t take my money. He wanted my innocence instead.

When Nikolai Romanov came looking for my brother, I emptied my savings hoping I could pay off his debt. But it wasn’t even close to enough, so Nikolai Romanov decided to take me instead.

I didn’t expect a Russian mafia boss like him to be gentle with me… and he wasn’t.

Not when he spanked me for daring to wear panties under the dress he chose for me, and certainly not when he stripped me out of that same dress and made me scream in his bed.

He told me I would be his for a month, but the way he looks at me says I’m his forever…

Review by Polly

OMG! Really that’s all I have to say… OMG! I was sucked in by the first few pages and stayed firmly seated until the last page was read! This dark mafia romance has it all, steam passion, suspense, “mafia” dealings, family issues, etc. and Charlie and Nikolai (tossing out a Chefs Kiss) – they are fantastic! Oliver, well he can just kick rocks! Would definitely recommend this book!
