Fall into the LAP OF LUXURY

Hi, book buddies :-) I always get very excited about any book by Brianna Hale. I love her intense and romantic writing. And her heroes are unforgettable. Let yourself fall in the Lap of Luxury...

MY OPINION 

I am astounded. I was expecting dark romance, but this goes beyond the norm into ironic, witty, psychological territory that breaks boundaries between fun and wrong, hot and morbid, emotional and insane. 

Ever imagined a psycopath with a soul and a prudish lady with macabre tendencies falling in love like puzzles from hell? This could be something like that 😂

Damir Ravnikar is a well-dressed brute, with a honed sense of revenge and a twisted sensual streak. He is the charismatic psycopath who teeters between the demented need for revenge out of a feeling of betrayal and this profound craving for his brother’s assistant. Bethany is the efficient orphan who gets aroused by violent danger with a proclivity to deviate into primitive coupling. That combination, my curious friends, is a masterpiece of entertainment. 

What really cracked me up and enraptured me is that the author came up with a deconstruction of the whole horror film genre from the perspective of a hot-blooded female more interested in rutting than dying. That Predator fantasy was stolen right out my own filthy imagination! I think all the horror films should be re-shot to that new code 😆😈 

Sumptuous settings, a sleek and villanous atmosphere, devious manipulation mingling with action-packed plot twists, a madman hellbent on vengeance and a woman in love with her monster of choice. This story of two brothers lost in a vendetta links with the first novel and ties both romances in a knot of blood, sex, soulmates, hatred and hope with a touch of dark humour and loads of steamy times. One of a kind and terribly addictive. I don’t know about you, but I might look for my own good times in the next horror flick I watch 😄

Favourite quotes: 

So brave. So beautiful, too, to withstand my storm and draw so much delight from it.

What does it mean when a madman finds you extraordinary?

ABOUT THE MASTERMIND

There’s nothing Brianna Hale likes more than a large, stern alpha male with a super-protective and caring streak, and when she’s not writing about them she can usually be found with a book, a cocktail, planning her next trip to a beautiful location or attending the theatre. She believes that pink and empowerment aren’t mutually exclusive, and everyday adventures are possible. Brianna lives in London.

We are ready for a Prince of Sin + giveaway

Hi, book buddies :-) How are you doing? Ready for a new reading experience? ;-) Prince of Sin is exactly that.

Prince of Sin

by Cass Ford

Genre: Contemporary Romance 

When a savvy gossip vlogger and porn’s most renowned bad boy fall in lust, they must decide if they’ll follow passion into dangerous territory.

When savvy gossip vlogger Morgan Sidney gets assigned the breakup of porn’s most illustrious couple, she strikes a deal with her boss—if she scores an exclusive, she’ll get promoted. So when the famous and flirtatious Prince of Sin offers to fulfill her three wildest sex fantasies, Morgan must decide whether she’ll keep things professional or surrender and explore her sensual side.

As someone who despises the media, why is Chase Prince spending time with a reporter? Clearly, he’s intrigued. But can a scorched sinner—and the biggest smut star around—let a fierce civilian enter his domain?

Prince of Sin takes readers beyond Tinseltown’s glossy Hollywood Hills to Silicone Valley—for a behind-the-scenes look at a sometimes bleak, always risqué world.

“She needed to be this fake, tabloid-friendly couple,” Chase revealed. “That’s
why I don’t care what strangers think. It’s all horseshit.”

His laissez-faire image philosophy impressed Morgan. She’d been raised to
present most respectably in a prim world. They hiked in silence for a
moment until strangely, an out-of-site owl hooted. “You want to direct?”

“Wanted,” he clarified, stiffening and scratching uncomfortably behind his
neck. “But Tori’s right, I know nothing about directing.”

As they passed another group, one guy shouted, “Love your work, man!”
Chase softened, high-fiving the guy. He took recognition in stride.

“And you?” Chase asked.

A raindrop skimmed her arm. “What about me?”

“Once you’re free from this wretched porn beat, you’d like to work on real news
?” When she simply shrugged, he asked, “What do you want to do with your
life?”

“To make the news, not just report it,” she explained, breathing deeply as they
approached the hilltop.

“How?”

“However I can,” she responded, an enthused smile forming. “Perhaps I’ll
write world-changing features, do humanitarian work, bridge the gender
gap, produce controversial films and market the fuck out of them, because
all I do is read marketing blogs and brainstorm creative ways Slander could
sell itself better.”

They reached the summit to face hazy L.A. Catching her breath, Morgan
clutched her ponytail in defeat. Inland, downtown skyscrapers vanished into
darkening clouds. Westward, a continuous stream of airplanes landed at
LAX, ushering more dreamers to the City of Angels. “How will I ever make a
difference with twenty destinations and no GPS?”

To Chase, Morgan’s response was sexier than anything he had heard in a
long time. Almost daily, he met self-obsessed women counting Followers
and Likes. But Morgan hoped to help others, to change the world for the
better. Her compassion inspired awe.

He frowned, mortified at having once suggested a private session with
someone so genuine. He’d never desired a woman’s inner beauty, but
suddenly nothing aroused him more. Marching over, he lifted her chin and
softly kissed her. She closed her eyes, melting into his inviting lips.

When a raindrop splashed their noses, they separated and exchanged
fraught glances. The sprinkle escalated, thunder erupting as people dashed
to their cars. Chase and Morgan followed, carefully descending the summit
under a thickening downpour. Reaching a plateau, Chase considered the
view and saw that Grieta Profunda Canyon Park, the public hiking
metropolis, was clearing out. He grabbed Morgan’s hand. “Stop!”

She raised an eyebrow as he turned his hat backward before seizing her
face. Their mouths met with force, tongues entwined, hearts racing. She bit
that luscious lower lip, a craving finally fulfilled.

Besides a few ant-sized stragglers in the valley, they were completely alone.
It was undeniably a public tryst, overlooking Los Angeles, yet sheets of rain
placed them in safe seclusion.

Chase backed Morgan through bristly shrubs before pressing her against a
steep slope. Dry dirt slopped into mud and splattered their legs, but neither
cared, devouring each other their only concern.
