There were quite a lot of stories within this book. I really enjoyed them until I would get to the part where it said story to continue in (name of Book) I thoroughly. enjoyed each and every character. It seems now that I have a few books to wait on and when they are released you better believe I’ll be reading them

Each and every story in this collection pulls you in and will not let you go. You go through all of the emotions with these characters. I have definitely found some new authors to try after reading these.

Entrust - Club Obsidian, Skye Callahan

 Smoking hot introduction to Lena and Eric. Loner is surprised at how easily Rusty is able to draw deeply held issues out of her. Eric is surprised at how caught up with Lena he is. I'm thinking this is going to be a tumultuous series!

The Compound - The Compound Trilogy, Claire Thompson
Alexis arrived at the Compound searching...for more. She couldn't let herself go. Master Paul is to train Alexis for a month.  The very first day, Alexis sees Paul and is so drawn  to him.  Paul feels something that hes never experienced for a sub before, anf hes having a challenging time trying to stay within the rules of the Compound.  This turned out to be a great love story!



Daddy’s Sassy Little Supermodel - Sassy Littles, Adaline Raine

Oh, Kay is so lost. Her life has taken a turn and she just can't seem to recover. Sebastian is trying to deliver presents when the weather takes a turn for the worst. Luckily hes close to his best friend's house where he can stay out of the storm. The pull between these two is something...even though Kay doesn't always read the situation correctly.

Just A Man - The Porter Trilogy, Shannon Youngblood
Alex and Charlie are just the cutest.  It takes a turn when things begin to happen to Charlie. The ending lets us know this was only the beginning!


The Silken Edge - Silken Edge Series, Laci Paige
Holy mackerel!  Talk about pushing limits.  A learning experience for Jake and Kristy.  I had tears in my eyes by the end.


Drawing on Love - A SAFE Security Trilogy, Michele Zurlo
 Your heart just breaks for Jessica.  So hard to try to find yourself in your 20's after being what someone wants for years. To find your love while you are searching for yourself is not always a good thing. Jesse is such a great fellow, your heart breaks for him to. 

Sparks - A Special Agent Novel, C.P. Mandara
A dark number which is a prelude to more.  Lois is training for a job, as a submissive, and its a bit harder than one would anticipate.  James is her trainer and the attraction is strong.  James is not a fan of the company sending in Lois but he doesn't have a say. Emotional, sexy and keeps you on the edge of your seat.

Adventurous Me - Bliss Series Book 1, Deanndra Hall
Awe! This was one hell of an adventure.  Trish is newly out of a marriage and looking for something...just not sure what.  She's invited to a club which opens her eyes to lots of new. 
Clint is unsettling and uncertain.  He's paired with Trish and, boy does the adventure begin! 
Great read with lots of feelings.

Find Her - Avenging Angels MC, Nia Farrell
Ok so these guys are serious! The Demons took an Angel's daughter. There is no love lost between the two MC clubs. In fact the Demons are going to use Rose as a party favour, but the Pres gets her first...

Michael is called upon by the Mafia to find the boss' niece. He's able to hack tech to find what he needs. Luck is on Rose's side because Michael finds her and Krissy.

Rose ends up going into hiding with Michael and things start to get interesting. Michael's going to train Rose to be his sub...she may be a natural, but she's been around it for so long she really wants to get away from the Clubhouse. Is Michael all she really needs?



Mastering the Virgin, Simone Leigh
Oh what a delicious end to this box  set.  There are 4 very hot books in this Mastering the Virgin - it's like a box set within the box set!
Exciting, sexy and soooo hawt af. Charlotte is auctioning off her virginity...luckily James is on hand to win her.  Between James and Michaelis, they introduced Charlotte into a great number of sexual adventures.

I'm reviewing two stories from this great set.
Find Her by Nia Farrell
Rival MCs stumble on their rival's daughter, and it all goes downhill from there. I liked the cat and mouse game Rose and Michael played with each other. It was a forgone conclusion these two would combust. It was only a matter of time. They both wanted it, but Michael was kind enough to put it into words. Since they were stuck together Michael was "generous" enough to offer to teach Rose to be a sub. Wasn't he thoughtful?!?! I like the results of their long suffering passions put to the test-fire!! Great story and great characters I was invested in.
Just A Man by Shannon Youngblood
Baggage- past and present! When baggage itself isn't enough to stifle you, but it resurfaces again because you weren't decimated enough from its' first go at you and it's looking to take you out of the game once and for all!! The first book in a must read trilogy. Action, mystery, and heat enough to incinerate your soul. Alex and Charlie are fire, and I need more! The cliffy is like a red flag to this bull- charge through and read on. Can't wait for book 2 and 3. Captivating storyline I need more of. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book and am giving an honest review.

My review is based on Simone Leigh's book "Friends", which is book one of her "Mastering the Virgin" series. This story gives all the details of how James & Michael became friends, sex partners in their BDSM games at the club and ultimately the buying of Charlotte. This is a must-read for anyone reading Simone's books. And with that in mind, since the other authors of this anthology are new to me, I can only assume they bring the same high caliber work with their stories. I look forward to getting to know each of them.

Smoke up your Kindle with this hot collection

Pleasure Bound is a deliciously sinful collection of stories by different authors but they are each really hot and erotic. After I grabbed an ARC copy I decided I to purchase this book also, just to keep in my library to peruse later on also.
If you like any one of these author's this is definitely a book you want to grab and also be introduced to other author's that you might like.

I received a free ARC of this book in exchange for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.

Really fantastic wild and dirty anthology. Lots of explicit sex but unfortunately also lots of cliffhangers. Since these books are first in series, I expected the cliffhangers. I'm not a fan of cliffhangers, but these books are so good I could overlook that and just enjoy them. Life is too short to lose sleep over cliffhangers! If they really bother you, then this anthology is not for you. Personally I loved them all.

Furious

I just wasted my time reading the teaser about Eric and Lena by Skye Callahan and then am left high and dry. Rest of book isn't on Amazon which is the only place I will get books. What a waste of my time. Not trying any of the other stories for fear the same thing will happen.

OMG, this will definitely peak your curiosity for the rest of the series. This is a collection of first in series from some of my favorite authors and a few I am less familiar with but intrigues none the less.
But be prepared, you will be left with a big cliff hang-over. Great reads none the less!

Highest quality compilation I've ever read

It seems that usually compilations are very uneven in the quality of the work. Not so this one. Each and every story is a gem that you will enjoy.

A really good combination of different authors. A few reviews:

Just A Man by Shannon Youngblood;
Mr Porter and Miss Hightower starts out as an impossible combination. Already during the interview for Alex’s personal assistent, the sparks are heavy between them. Charlotte has a problem with the changing mode from Alex. - I couldn’t stop reading. I’m going to get the next book in this serie.

The Compound by Claire Thompson;
When a dream come through. Maybe Alexis didn’t know what she searched for, but she got more than she could ever ask for in The Compound. Finally her fear fell away.

Find Her by Nia Farrell;
Michael...sigh...
Well it's not just Michael - he wouldn't be enough without Rose. Both of them together made the story, surrounded by Alpha males and one lioness - Rose's mother. Hope to see more of her later on.
The connection between Rose and Michael, when he trained her...
You have to read it - I'm not saying anymore.
