Sinfully Sweet
BORN TO BE WILDE by Janelle Denison
Ex-Marine turned security specialist Joel Wilde thrives on the high-wire thrills that come with his job. And he isn’t about to give all that up to settle down – - not even with a sexy woman like Lora Marshall. Which means that while he’s protecting her from a violent mobster, he’ll need to set a few ground rules to keep things professional. Good thing he’s always been a rule-breaker at heart.
SAVIN’ ME by Alannah Lynne
One step away from the coveted Vice Presidency of her firm, the last thing Kat Owens needs is the distraction of a man. Her client, Erik Monteague, disagrees. He's charming, sexy, seductive, and impossible to ignore. Erik's perfectly executed seduction gets Kat into his bed, but her passionate, loving nature is more than he bargained for. As the carefully constructed walls guarding his heart dissolve, he's forced to make a decision... spend the rest of his life running, or risk being devastated by love again.
DRIVE ME CRAZY by Marquita Valentine

Will Carter risk it all for love, or will Melanie be left holding the trophy for second place?
ANGEL BABY by Leslie Kelly
When Claudia Warren goes into premature labor in the worst possible place, a handsome stranger comes to her aid, saving her life her daughter. Former rebel Chase Paxton is a loner, and he likes it that way, so delivering a stranger's baby shocks him to his core. Even more shocking is that the beautiful young mother disappears before he can even learn her last name. Now, fate has brought the very sexy, available Claudia back into Chase's life. And while the physical attraction between them sizzles, neither wants any emotional tangles. Can two people who've sworn off love for good ever move beyond the past to trust in a future together?
THE PERFECT PROPOSAL by Rhonda Nelson
Annie Witherspoon has spent the last five years working toward obtaining the CEO position at Hightower Advertising.

Now, thanks to some inconvenient, ill-timed bout of nostalgia, her boss is giving his global playboy nephew a shot at her job.
Mitch Hightower isn't nearly the playboy the papers make him out to be and, after the sudden death of his business partner, Mitch feels to need to be closer to his family, to his heritage. But when pitted against Annie Witherspoon to win an important account, Mitch finds himself less concerned with pitching his campaign strategy and more interested in marketing himself...to her.

About the author
Janelle Denison
159 books559 followersIt’s hard for me to imagine that I’ve been writing romances for over twenty years now! I started at the young age of 21, just after I got married. Reading romances, and then writing them, came about as a result of having too much time on my hands. When I first married my husband Don, I was working a regular nine to five job and he worked swing shift, from four in the afternoon until midnight. It wasn’t an ideal schedule for newlyweds, and in order to pass those hours when I was alone I started reading romances, and eventually tried my hand at writing them.
The road to publication wasn’t an easy one. It took me five years and dozens of rejections to make my first sale, which was to Harlequin for their “Stolen Moments” line. THE FAMILY MAN, written under the pseudonym Danielle Kelly, was one of the twelve novellas published in 1993 for this promotional line.
It took me another two and a half years (and more rejections!) to sell my second book. HEAVEN’S GIFT (written under my own name) was published in October 1995 by Leisure Love Spell for their “An Angel’s Touch” series. Another two years passed of collecting even more rejections before I finally sold to Harlequin Romance and Harlequin Temptation. At the time, writing for both Temptation and Harlequin Romance provided me with a wonderful creative outlet for both my modern, ultra-sexy stories, and my warmer, traditional romances. But as the years passed, I realized how much I enjoyed writing the sexier stories and streamlined my career accordingly so that I was no longer writing the sweet traditional romances, and instead focused on the hotter, sexier stories for Temptation and Blaze.
After writing over two dozen books for Harlequin, I decided to branch out. I wanted to write anthologies and single titles, and came up with an idea about three sexy brothers with the last name of “Wilde”. Little did I know that those Wilde brothers would become such a sensation with readers. In the second Wilde book, WILDE THING, four Wilde cousins were introduced, and readers started writing in for their stories, too. It’s been a joy and pleasure to write each of the Wilde stories, and I want to thank everyone for purchasing those books and putting them on the USA Today Bestseller list!
I’ve been a full-time writer for years, which consists of being deep in deadlines, writing proposals (growling at the husband to fix a glitch in the computer so I can get back to work!), perusing contracts, line-edits (stressing over a scene that won’t work or characters that just won’t talk or cooperate with my plans for them!), galleys, art-fact sheets, promotion, and other publishing paperwork. Admittedly, I wouldn’t trade all the craziness in for pantyhose, rush hour traffic, and a nine-to-five job again. Writing is hard work, but I find the rewards are well worth the effort. Fan letters are one of those priceless rewards, and can keep me on a high for days! I’ve met the most wonderful people through my books, some of which I now consider good friends.

Slick's review posted on Guilty Pleasures Book Reviews
4.25 Overall
This is a collection of full length romance novels by several awesome authors. This collection is $5.99 so basically $1.00 per book and you can’t beat that! Below are some “mini reviews” of each of the books in this collection. I hope you’ll read the reviews and see that this is one collection worth way more than the price; some of these books have been published before so just be aware of that when you are picking up this collection.
Born To Be Wilde by Janelle Dension 4.5 stars
When Joel Wilde is asked by an ex-Marine buddy to keep his sister safe he knows he can do the job but once he meets Lora Marshall he realizes there’s a whole lot more he wants to do than keep her safe. There was some danger and intrigue in this book but the main focus was the growing relationship between Joel and Lora and we got a bonus love story between Lora’s friend (and boss), Sydney and her daughter’s algebra teacher Daniel. Joel is determined to keep things on a professional level with Lora but when she is injured comfort leads to much more and although he tries to shut it down he just can’t help himself. I really love seeing always in control guys like Joel lose it. It proves they are human. Lora is really insightful and begins to understand why Joel prefers to remain distant. I love that she calls him on it and that she doesn’t back down from him and tells him how she is feeling knowing it will send him into a tailspin. This is an entertaining story and honestly a fantastic group of characters.
Savin’ Me by Alannah Lynne 4.5 stars
I had previously read and reviewed Savin’ Me and I can honestly say after reading it a second time I completely agree with my original review. Check it out here: http://www.guiltypleasuresbookreviews...
Angel Baby by Leslie Kelly 4.5 stars
I’ve read a lot of Leslie Kelly’s works in the past so I was really excited she was part of this collection. When Chase finds Claudia in a cemetery about to give birth neither one of them ever suspects their lives will be forever changed. This story held me captivated from the start. Poor Claudia had no choice but to accept the help of a stranger when she went into early labor but the fact that Chase jumped in and held her hand and helped her deliver he daughter was pretty damn remarkable. When she appears many months later on a job interview for his company, it becomes evident that neither one can deny the special bond they have with one another. They tap dance around each other for quite a while all the while talking and finding out more about each other and their past lives. They both have some serious past hurts they must work through and it was fun to watch their relationship grow and change over the months. I love that they are as passionate about each other as they are about Claudia’s daughter, Sarah. Angel Baby is a sweet yet sexy romance that grabs hold of you and doesn’t let you go.
Drive Me Crazy by Marquita Valentine 4.0 stars
I really love when a childhood crush turns into adult passion. Melanie Smith has been in love with her best friend’s older brother, Chase Ambrose, forever. It really started as a little bit of hero worship back when she was a young girl but over the years it changed to a very much one sided love fest. Following a career ending crash, Chase is back home and Melanie has decided it’s now or never to get his attention. I flat out loved this story! Melanie is a piece of work but considering his childhood and upbringing it’s no wonder. I admire the way she works hard and doesn’t want to rely on anyone to take care of her. She is bound and determined to make it on her own even when life and her Dad seem to always get in her way. Chase was a little harder to like only because at times he seemed so insensitive. However, I think this is in part to becoming jaded as most pro athletes tend to become and also because he’s never really had to worry about anything in his life. There has always been someone there to help him put the pieces back together. They come from vastly different backgrounds but oh the chemistry between them is undeniable. They share some very intense and steamy moments but they also share a lot of heartache. I like that Melanie finally realizes she has to do something that make her happy and goes for it and that not only does Chase encourage that he supports her fully. These two are a special couple and I have no doubt you will very much enjoy reading their story.
The Perfect Proposal by Rhonda Nelson 4.5 stars
Have you ever read Rhonda Nelson? I have, and this book reminded me of why I enjoy her work so much. The Perfect Proposal is the perfect blend of romance, longing, wittiness, and sexy fun. Annie Witherspoon is have a pretty shittastic day when she is “rescued” by Mitch Hightower. Little does she know that her knight in shining armor is the man trying to take away the job she’s earned over the last five years of her life. Annie is one of those women you can’t help but like; brought up in foster homes, she went to college and has made a name for herself in advertising. She tough, smart, and at this point in time more than a little ticked off. Mitch has returned to his family’s company following the death of his best friend. Determined to take over the reins for his ailing uncle, he soon finds he’ll have to compete with Annie for the title of CEO. The hilarity that ensues when a quirky client insists that they spend two weeks at his ranch in Texas with him is quite comical. At times it is so obvious these two are being thrown together by some scheming matchmakers. However, I just couldn’t help but enjoy watching them navigate through all the challenges and eventually succumb to their feelings for one another. While the ending was perfectly satisfying I wanted to know who ended up at CEO and more importantly was Mitch’s uncle, William, was involved in the scheme to get them together. Even with not knowing that, The Perfect Proposal is an absolute delight and it reminded me why I’ve always loved this author’s work.
The Right Choice by Carly Phillips 4.0 stars
I admit I have a sick sense of humor because I kind of enjoy books, tv shows, and movies where the bride realizes as her wedding approaches that she’s in love or in lust with someone else. So is the case for Carly Wexler. She’s engaged to Peter Novack but for both of them it’s more of a marriage of convenience; they like and respect one another, are friends, but there isn’t any passion. Carly is okay with this because in her eyes passion ruins everything and she feels that she can trust Peter to be the reliable, responsible, and to honor his vows. Then she meets his brother, Mike, and she beings to understand just what passion can do to a person. I won’t lie Carly is one pretty messed up woman. She is still reeling from her father’s infidelity and the ensuing scandal when she was a teenager. More than that she has never understood why her mother chose to ignore his affair. Mike is no prize either, having been orphaned as a child he is a world famous photographer risking life and limb to break the next big story but his last assignment got to him, left him injured, and bringing old hurts to the surface. While I loved the instant attraction between Carly and Mike, there were times when this story drove me a little nuts. Even after finishing it I still can’t understand the charade both Carly and Peter went through especially when it was so evident they had so very little in common. The fact that Carly had true feelings for Mike even if it was only lust at the beginning should have been a clear indication that continuing to plan the wedding and avoiding Mike as best she could was the wrong thing to do. I do appreciate that Carly and Mike spent a lot of time getting to know one another and that Mike really tried to be the stand up guy. He was upfront and honest with Carly about his job, the fact that he’d eventually leave, and that he’d do everything in his power not to hurt her. I also applaud the author for making both Mike and Carly face their past hurts and work to get past them. Overall I enjoyed The Right Choice and even though it’s not my favorite in this collection, it was still a worthy romance.

Born to be Wilde(2 Stars)-
The main characters just didn't do it for me. They really didn't have anything keeping them apart in my opinion. The side characters however had a very interesting story and I liked their chemistry a lot more. They had much more to overcome.
Savin' Me(3 Stars)-
I liked this story more. The main character was very relatable. I don't have too much to say about this one.
Angel baby(4 Stars)-
This story was my favorite, it had a great meet cute and the story just was very sweet. The romance built steadily and the reasons they tried to stay apart were legitimate.
Drive me Crazy(4 Stars)-
While this story wasn't my favorite in the book, I really liked the author's style. It was a little too much about the love making aspects of their relationship, I like when there is a little more build, but since they already had the strong friend foundation it didn't seem completely out of place. Also of all the books this one had the most grammar errors or typos. All of them had a few, but this one was the worst. ONe sentence was "It was is okay." I mean its such as easy fix there is no reason not to have an editor read through and make the corrections so they don't distract from the story.
The Perfect Proposal (2.5 Stars)
Pretty much a corny love story. It had its moments, but it wasn't really a page turner.
The Right Choice (3 Stars)
The best edited book for sure. I'm glad it ended with this one, because the constant typos/grammatical errors were driving me crazy. Overall I like that this story had a stronger plot. I really wasn't sure how the heroine was going to handle her predicament. It was a more engaging story that the last, but not my favorite of the series, nor my favorite by Carly Phillips in general.
Overall I got a lot of fluffy reads for 99 cents and was happy I took advantage of the deal.

Way too "sexy". I had to skip a few books in this set. I couldn't even finish Carly Philips because it was the typical romance with no storyline. Bored. It was a good thing this was only $1!
