My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As a new author to me I never know what to expect going in or if it will take a bit to get into their writing style. Well I was captivated from the first page and i was immersed into this story the more I read.
Katie, well she seemed from the outside to be superficial and a daddy’s girl, but we learn the truth pretty quickly through the eyes of Ramone and also getting her points of view throughout as well.
This book had me holding on for all the ups and downs and the gut punches it held.
I still have many questions left at the end of this one so I cannot wait to dive in to book 2 as I really need to know what happens .

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I do love me a forbidden romance set in the world of the mafia/cartel.
This novel starts off with a bang (literally) and doesn’t stop! So many twists and turns. Katie is supposedly a spoiled brat, daughter of Cartel leader Carl. Once people know Katie though they realize she’s really a selfless woman who is trying to live under her father’s tyrannical hand. After an attempt on Katie’s life Ramone is ordered to protect her life with his, and to make sure no one touches her, as an arranged marriage is being worked out. Of course, when you’re ordered not to touch what happens but you begin to want that person.
I enjoyed seeing the true personalities of Katie and Ramone emerge throughout the story. No on is who or what they seem at first. Plus the lust, and later love, that develops between the two is palpable. I did appreciate the slow build up of desire for one another. First the reluctant sexual thought here or there, then the blatant attraction.
While overall I thoroughly enjoyed the story, there were times I was lost as to who the internal monologue belonged. Sometimes it seemed that there was a third person narrator giving us more information, or foreshadowing things, and then it would switch to either Ramone or Katie’s thoughts, but in third person format. I think in the beginning I would have been able to follow better, and been more emotionally attached, if the narrator switched between Katie and Ramone in first person.
I was excited to read the chapters here and there where we got insight into the mind of the hired assassin. It was interesting to see his perspective of the job and him seeking out his target, compared to us seeing what’s happening to Katie and Ramone. I also enjoyed the mini mysteries that popped up along the way: what happened to Katie’s mother; and who exactly is Ramone?
Warning, there are some gruesome and gory bits as this is set in the world of the cartel. (Note, I shall never look at a soccer ball the same way.) Also trigger warning for human trafficking of women.
Takeaway: if you like dark romance, you’ll enjoy this one.

Sexy Drug (Losing My Heart Book 1) by Melody Calder

This is the first book I’ve read by Calder. I will definitely be coming back for more. Sexy Drug is the first book in the Losing My Heart Series.

Katie is the only daughter of a known drug dealer. She is shot and watches her best friend die in front of her eyes. Then she finds herself attracted to her new body guard. Although she knows she shouldn’t, she ends up falling for him. The quote I chose for Katie is: “I know there’s a back way. I just don’t want the staff to see this either. They talk and I can’t handle any more rumors. Not with being stuck here until I’m sold to the highest bidder.”

Ramone is on a job and doesn’t want to put up with what he calls a selfish brat. Once he gets to know Katie and understands why she acts the way she does he starts falling. He shouldn’t feel this way since she is the boss’s daughter and off limits to him. The quote I chose for Ramone is: “As you know, your father wants us to join him for breakfast. You have fifteen minutes before we have to leave, if we are to make it on time. If there’s nothing else you need, I’ll be in my chair.”

Highly recommended for Romantic Suspense lovers.

Ramone finds himself bodyguard to spoiled socialite Katie after she is shot. Katie is not truly spoiled. She really is a selfless person that helps those in need but with a criminal drug lord for a father most people assume the worse. As the two get to know each other, they find things changing not for the better. Katie’s being forced to marry a criminal because her dad “owns” her. Can Ramone help her? Will Katie be able to break free? Oh my goodness, this book left me holding my breath in anticipation of what came next. From the beginning scene of the shooting to Katie being sent to meet her groom, the action never stopped. Ramone seemed like an undercover agent? That was a question that I’m looking forward to seeing answered. Katie came into her strength as the book came along. I don’t know if I could have stood up to my crime lord dad. I can’t wait for the next book to come out.

Sexy Drug, (Losing my Heart book 1) is the first book I have read by Melody Calder and I am so happy it is part of a series because it will not be my last! I loved that the storyline was fast paced from the first to last page and it had everything I look for in a romantic read- suspense, excitement and an element of danger. I had really hoped to connect with Katie as the story progressed but I much preferred Ramone. Admittedly, I don’t like many main female characters in the “romance” genre BUT there is something lovable about a tough guy with a soft spot. Overall, I think the best part of Sexy Drug was Melody Cader’s attention to detail, from the very first page I was impressed with the way she could describe something like pavement with such detail without making the storyline feel heavy or bogged down. I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Sexy Drug is a quickly paced, slow burn romance novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat from page 1 until the very last. I enjoyed getting to learn about 2 of the main characters backgrounds and how they got to where they are in life. It wasn’t just insta-love. Katie has been kept away from the ruthlessness, and sadistic tendencies of all the men around her including her father who treats her like she is just another piece of property. Her father has arranged for her to marry someone so much worse than even himself. Ramone has been through so much himself but there is still so much more to be seen about him. They portrayed cool indifference to cover what was growing between them but they were so different behind closed doors even while Katie’s life is in danger. I honestly cannot wait to read more in this series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sexy Drug is book 1 in the Losing My Heart Trilogy by Melody Calder. It is a powerful blend of love, deceit, crime, lust, and betrayal all beautifully woven together in a story that will keep you riveted. Callous, cold hearted bodyguard Ramone is ordered to be personal bodyguard for his boss’ spoiled, obnoxious daughter Katie. A girl that he has always despised and wanted nothing to do with. All that changes when he is assigned to be her personal bodyguard after she survives an attempt on her life by a sniper. As much as each tries to deny it, they forge a bond and find a growing attraction between them. Each must deny their attraction for the other or risk being killed by her overbearing, controlling father who is a powerful drug lord.

Sexy Drug was beautifully written and had a nice flow from chapter to chapter. It starts off strong and keeps you hooked from the first few pages and compels you to keep reading. Full of descriptive writing Melody Calder draws the reader into each scene making you feel as though you are there in that place and in that moment. The tension between characters intrigued me and compelled me to keep reading to see what would happen next. I found the book hard to put down as I was drawn into the world of Ramone and Katie. This is a book that I know I will want to read more than once, from cover to cover, with no interruptions. I highly recommend this book!

This is the first book in the Losing My Heart series and wow what a book. It had  me gripped from the first page. It’s a rollercoster story with danger, Romance, suspense and excitement. The author does an amazing job writing the characters that they literally jump off the page.

Sexy Drug (Losing My Heart #1) by Melody Calder follows the storylines for Ramone and Katie. Katie, the daughter of a ruthless criminal, is in danger and she gets a bodyguard courtesy of her father, Ramone.

The tension in the book is so thick you could cut it with a knife. The characters interactions with each other seems like something you could find in a tv show or movie. I kept getting that sensation while reading it that it could be a tv show. The portrayal of evil was believable and sometimes uncomfortable. It was a great read that I binged in a day.

I will definitely finish this series!

Sexy Drug is the first book in the Losing My Heart series by Melody Calder. This is a fantastic romantic suspense, with a enemies to lovers/mafia element, some drama, danger, tension, and more. I was pulled into the story quite quickly and was avidly reading to discover how it all played out in the end.
Katie is the daughter of a powerful and dangerous drug lord. She has the reputation of being a spoiled princess. Ramone is one of her fathers trusted men. They have a mutual dislike of one another- so things get heated when Katie’s safety is on the line and Ramone is tasked with keeping her safe. Thrust together, the sparks soon fly. Get set for a fantastic read! Now I can’t wait for the rest of the series.

Thank you, Melody Calder!

Lots of intrigue and excitement in this one! Katie Rosewood is the daughter of crime lord kingpin Carl Rosewood, who will stop at nothing to keep his daughter safe. After an attempt on her life, he assigns one of his top bodyguards, Ramone Sanchez, to guard her 24/7. Initially, Ramone sees her as a spoiled rich girl, but after spending time with her and seeing her at her most vulnerable, he begins to care for her. Unfortunately, while Carl vehemently protects his daughter, he is a thorough narcissist who sees her only as a valuable possession whom he can control at his whim. When he decides to expand his business, Katie may end up being a pawn whom he can trade to satisfy his desires.

The character of Carl is drawn well and is truly frightening. I really liked Ramone, and we got to hear a lot from his point of view. The plot takes many twists and turns, which kept me engaged in the story. All in all, this is a good romance with many elements of danger and corruption that will satisfy readers of crime and suspense as well.

Sexy Drug is the first book in the Losing My Heart series by Melody Calder. It’s the first time I’ve read any work by this author but if this book is anything to go by then it won’t be the last. I want to know what happens next in this story for a start.
Katie is the daughter of a very powerful crime lord and when someone tries to kill her, her father puts Ramone in charge of her safety with the added ‘request’ of do not touch her. That’s not an issue to begin with as both seem to seriously dislike one another until they get to know one another better. Needless to say Katie and Ramone become sexually attracted to one another but it’s more than his life is worth for him to even put a finger on Katie. Or is it?
I loved reading Katie and Ramone’s story. It’s dark and raw in moments and not for the faint stomach in places. Let’s just say that I wouldn’t want to get on the wrong side of Katie’s father. He’s a very cruel and ruthless man and Katie is just a commodity to him.
I was sucked into the story from the very start and devoured this in the space of a few hours. I just didn’t want to put it down.
Definitely recommend.

Sexy Drug is book one in the Losing My Heart series by Melody Calder. Dramatic from the very beginning, the pace stayed quick throughout the entire story. The story had many enjoyable and heart stopping moments. The storyline was edgy and gripping, keeping a reader on high alert awaiting the next event. With breathtaking danger at every turn, Katie and Ramone were on a treacherous road, but that did not diminish the intensity and passion that reigns between them. Their chemistry was electric and their journey went through many highs and many more lows. The author had a crafty way with words and played with a readers imagination and provided a titillating and unforgettable book. 5 stars.

They switch back and forth between Katie and Ramone, at first it’s hard to tell which perspective you’re reading it from. I wish that was done a little differently, but after several chapters I got the hang of it and could hardly tell. Other than that this was a great read and I can’t wait for the next installment!

Ruthless and cruel is what she is used to so when she finds out about her bodyguard, she expected the same.

I live in a world where I am a commodity to my father, but when a new bodyguard turns up can I make nice and tolerate him or will he shock me and see the real me.

Katie is the daughter of the big crime boss, she is an object to him but she is trying to become her own person but when you are watch 24/7 can I truly let my hair down and become the person I want to be.

Ramone started at the bottom of the pole, a drugs mule for the biggest crime family but slowly through the years he has progressed through the ranks and is now in the inner circle, the only problem now he has been asked to become the security to the bosses daughter, the only problem is he can’t stand her so this assignment should be interesting.

This is the first book I have read by this author and enjoyed this book from the first word to the last. The story is a lovely slow burn where you get to know the history and back story for both characters, I loved the way the characters play the antagonist to each other and while at the beginning they can’t stand each other but slowly get to know each other and then start having feelings.

The secondary characters in the book develop and draw you further into the story and the you feel invested in the mysteries and twist that this story has to offer. I really enjoyed this book and would love to read the next instalment and see if there are more answers revealed in the next book.

Sexy Drug is my first experience reading a Melody Calder book and I really enjoyed the story. I am anticipating the second book in the Losing My Heart series since this one left off on a cliffhanger and I now must know the remaining part of Katie and Ramone’s stories. This book is a story set in the midst of a cartel and how the main characters develop a friendship built on trust, in a world where trust can lead to death. Katie is the daughter of a ruthless drug lord and Ramone is one of the boss’s trusted men, assigned to protect Katie after it becomes clear someone is out to kill her. This story is fast paced with many questions still remaining to be answered, the main one being who will survive. I cannot wait for the next book to see where this story takes me.

I liked the idea of this book. I was eagerly ready to read it and get down to the nitty gritty. What I struggled with is the description of every little thing. There would be paragraphs of description then one line of dialogue. I am a person who need more dialogue. The descriptive is fine to set the scene but then let the characters be free to talk and move. Due to this the book seems to be way to slow. It picked up and got more interesting during the last half.

This is a cliffhanger and I wonder if that is why the story is slow. Basically filler to drag out the story for more books. Sorry I am not a fan of cliffhangers either.

As for the characters..Ramone has real promise. Strong and smart but not too smart. Katie is in a tight spot. Hopefully her character can get stronger and figure out how to break away. Carl is just exactly what someone would think when thinking of a crime lord.

Overall this is an okay book. I love the idea of the story. The characters are pretty spot on and solid. I would enjoy more dialogue and less minute by minute.

I found Sexy Drug to be a very character centered book. Melody Calder was able to draw my interest in with the constant turmoil within Ramone fighting his feelings and keeping the facade of a killer. Katie’s hatred towards her father runs deep, and she tries to thwart his control at every interaction. She Also has a deep-seated hatred as she suspects Carl’s right-hand Danny to be the one that caused her mother’s disappearance. What I found unique about the plot was that the assassin had a voice. Going by the name of K, he is determined to finish his mission or face a gruesome death at the hands of the unknown person that has hired him. The details of this book are gruesome, and I would caution anyone adverse to extreme violence and bloody death scenes to proceed with extreme caution. The ending was climatic and left off leaving me questioning the true motives of Ramone and Carl Rosemand. I also wonder if K is given another chance to kill Katie or if his botched sniper attempt has cost him his freedom. I can solidly give this a 5-star rating as the plot compliments the character development and kept my interest that I read the entire book in one sitting.

Sexy Drug is the first book I have read by Melody Calder, but I LOVED it. I cannot wait to read the rest of the Losing My Heart series. I was instantly hooked and didn’t want to put it down. Lucky for me, I was passenger on a road trip, so I got to read it all in 1 night. However, it had such a cliff hanger ending that I am left wanting more. The book focuses around Katie, the daughter of a drug lord/cartel leader. When there is an attempt on her life, her dad assigns her a body guard, Ramone. The reader and Katie first believes he is just hired muscle, and one of the “bad guys” but we soon see there may be something deeper. There are hints and clues into his past, and who he really is, but it is never fully revealed. I love that the mystery remained throughout. I love reading mafia books, but this one takes the cake. Highly recommend this book, and cannot wait to read the next book.

Straight from the very first chapter I was sucked in and held until that last page that I wanted to come because I needed to know how things would come to a close, but at the same time I dreaded so much so. I loved this read and was so enamored. I could not get this book out of my head long after I had finished it. This brought the best of both worlds for me with the slow burn romance and the dark underworld of the mafia too. I won’t divulge all the details or anymore than the blurb does because I feel that would give away too much and ruin the experience for readers.

Sexy Drug by Melody Calder is the first book in the Losing My Heart Series. Identity is important, portrayal even more so. Kate finds this out as she learns everyone isn’t always who they seem on the outside.

Katie’s dad is a ruthless and cruel man. She can only assume her new body guard, Ramone, is the same. An instant dislike is apparent between the two. However, when you spend all of your time with someone, you get to know them on a deeper level.

Can first impressions be put aside for these two to work together, or is it a disaster from the start? If they can’t work it out, who suffers?
