I highly recommend Obedience by Liza Snow! This book is X rated and only for adults. I absolutely loved all the characters and dynamics of the story. Even though the focus is the forbidden romance blossoming between Cassandra and Chandler the twists and turns and plot of the story were extremely refreshing. The main storyline is about Cassandra following her dream of being a silk aerialist for Cirque du Lys. She finally gets to train under her idol and mentor, Chandler. Chandler is her professor and mentor and should not blur the boundary between them. The book switches the viewpoint between Cassandra and Chandler perfectly. The passionate, steamy scenes in the book feel natural and I loved the BDSM aspects such as bondage. Get ready for an entertaining show at the circus!

The Boys of Alpha Block by Nancy Nau Sullivan. This was such a good book. Its the story of a group of teenage boys incarcerated at Alpha Correctional Center a juvenile detention center. These boys have been humiliated, abused and degraded by the guards. The boys begin to think that trying to escape might be the better option. They are being held like animals in a cage. Working together they devise a plan to break out thinking that its got to be better than staying in this place waiting to be raped, starved and beat up. This place is not a rehabilitation its a torture chamber. The Teachers and some of the guards know something is about to happen because they can feel the tension in the air. Some of the boys become lifetime friends and will do whatever they can to protect each other. I was really upset with the teachers and guards for the way they let these kids be treated. This book will tug at your heart.

I was very impressed with this book. I was actually very intrigued with the whole thing. It was so well written that reading about the circus and the training you really feel like you’re sitting there watching it unfold before your eyes. It was so detailed that I almost forgot I was reading it. the love and chemistry that happens between the two main characters Cassandra and chandler made me feel like I was involved in something that I wasn’t supposed to know about. It kept me wanting to read more, I really couldn’t put it down. I felt like I couldn’t read it fast enough to find out what was going to happen next. I usually don’t grab romance reads but this book had me on an emotional journey, it was a little slow but the action, love scenes were well worth it.

I was intrigued with the storyline and the cover of this book and decided to dive in….and this was quite an enjoyable read! This story gave me lots of suspense, intrigue, rawness of the characters and definitely my heart for these boys and what they suffer as far as abuse…this author did a great job of storytelling.
What is the ultimate price of freedom and is it truly worth the cost? The boys at the correctional institute stir up a way to escape…..but at what worth? Escape the abuse from the institute officers… something has to happen……..
This story is truly a very good read…the struggle and what the boys endure at times….my heart.

I am so thankful this is the first book in a series because whoa… I love how Cassandra and Chandler’s chemistry simmers as the story unfolds. The setting is unique as they are circus performers, and it made their characters compelling and endearing, and I love them together. This story twists and turns like a good mystery should and kept me in suspense and at the edge of my seat the entire time! It was hard to put this book down and not read it in one, long sitting. It’s steamy romance, vibrant storytelling, and characters I couldn’t get enough of. I tend to shy away from a lot of steamy romances, but this one has my full recommendation. I can’t wait to get my hands on book two!

Who doesn’t love a forbidden, age-gap romance?! This is the story of Cassandra (the student) and Chandler (the teacher) and how their lives, present and past, intertwine as she becomes his protégé. I do love how quickly this book hooked me and Snow’s writing is excellent. I absolutely love the dual perspectives…it’s one of my favorite things being able to get both main characters’ POVs. I think Snow handled the spice very nicely in this book and though it was a slow-burn, I liked the pacing. There were a few times where some transitions were abrupt and that kind of jarred me; however, I enjoyed the book. This did end on a cliffhanger and I can’t wait to get my hands on the 2nd book.

This is the heart-wrenching tale of the “Boys of Alpha Block.” It takes place in a juvenile detention center where the boys are subjected to the horrors of physical, mental, emotional, and (sometimes) sexual abuse, as well as abuse of power, humiliation and degradation, and complete disregard for their education. I would consider this book to have a slow pacing but I couldn’t flip the pages fast enough to find out what was going to happen next. This book will take an emotional toll on you; however, there are bright spots in it too. Friendships are formed and there is hope which does ease some of the tension of all of the darkness. I think one of the things that has stuck with me long after I’ve finished the last page is the fact that there were “good” people in positions to help the boys and they just stood idly by. This book is definitely worth the read, but do be prepared to have your heart tugged at and to have a good stare at the wall when you’re done.

This book was exciting and thrilling. The boys plotting an escape because, quite frankly, the guards were jerks. The story is full of drama. The teachers just wanted to do the right things by the boys. This was a story I had to devour in one sitting. You can’t put it down. Once you get pulled into Alpha Block, you can’t leave. The characters are so well-written that you feel like you know them. Their struggle is real. Though the boys committed crimes, they didn’t deserve to be abused like that. An amazingly well-done story that had me sucked in and reading it page to see what was coming next. The English teacher knew something was coming, she had me looking. The story flows so well. I can’t recommend this book enough. I hope to read more from this author. Check it out, you won’t be sorry.

There isn’t anything I didn’t like about this book. I loved all the plot twists and character development as well as the suspense and trying to figure out what happens next. I could not put it down! I also loved the addition of the ropes as that is something I am interested in as well. Cannot wait for Discipline to come out in September!

This was a really good book! The circus aspect was very different from what I expected and nothing I’ve honestly ever read before. It was very easy for me to get immersed in this story. My one complaint is that the timelines changed pretty abruptly, so I kept losing my focus during chapters changes. There is a lot of mystery and untold things that take a while to get to the bottom of, and I’m ready to see what happens in book two for sure! This story does end on a cliffhanger, for anyone who doesn’t like that happening.

Hooooooolllllllllllllllllllyyyyy Cow. Chandler could tie me up anytime. Oh, that voice. I am in for this series, be it two or twelve books.
Can we talk about, just for one second, how this book ended? I mean, all the unanswered questions. There is so much I need to know. So much I want to know. Will she forgive him for leaving her in the silks that way? How linked are their families? How much danger are they in? Why did they go after the ex-wife? So many questions!!!
The way this author describes the way things feel, smell, taste, sound, or look is absolutely impressive. This book was a feast for the senses. When does the 2nd one come out? Tomorrow? Yesterday?

Obedience: A Dark Student Teacher Romantic Suspense (Ties That Bind Book 1)
Chandler and Cassandra have a very interesting and complicated relationship. They are teacher/student and both aerialists. But there is intense attraction and a little bit of self loathing and a lot of hot and cold feelings from Chandler. That frustrated me some especially since neither one of them is a young adult in their late teens or early twenties.
I found myself getting very caught up in the second shibari scene and also never thought about how erotic aerial artistry could be until now.
Cassandra has an amazing friend in Alex, everyone needs an Alex in their life. She also finds Henry and Dana along the way.
Chandler is a mess, he has too many demons he is dealing with and gets stuck in his head way too often, though I understand how easy that can be at times.
As frustrated as I would get at times I did enjoy the book and definitely found myself getting lost in the pages. The description of the ropes work was enthralling and I definitely want more.
Looking forward to reading the next book by Ms. Snow and hopefully get a happy ending.

The Boys of Alpha Block by Nancy Nau Sullivan 4 Stars
Alpha Block is a boys correctional facility. The boys are in for misdemeanours, murder and everything in between. Life is not easy and being caged in is even worse. The boys are planning to escape and everyone has a roll to play. Caroline McBride teaches them and truly believes in the rehabilitation of these youths. Her intuition is telling her that something is brewing but she can’t figure out what. She believes in these boys and wants to help them choose a better way of life. Unfortunately she keeps getting railroaded by the deputies. There are rules for a reason.
This book was really stepping out of the box for me. It was not my usual genre but it sounded interesting so I took a chance. The story was well written. I’m not sure how I feel about it though. It made me sad. I felt bad for the boys and the lives that they lived. The way the deputies treated them got me angry. One thing that I did struggle with (I know it sounds silly) was the font size. It was so small that I got annoyed reading the book. It’s probably just me being crazy so don’t let it deter you from reading this story.

This is the second book in the series which I didn’t initially realise as it can be read as a standalone. I’ve read some other books by the author, so I was really looking forward to reading this one. It did not disappoint.
As usual I enjoyed the writing style used, it added to my enjoyment in reading. The story had me hooked, now I’m not usually one to go for love triangles as I feel they’re a bit over-done, but it was done well and, in the plot, it worked.
There’s darkness, suspense and mystery which I thrive on when reading so this was a great book for me. I’ll be going back to read the first in the series and impatiently wait for another!

Stalked by the Devil is part of the To Kiss a Stalker Series. It is a fast-paced romantic suspense that centers around the story of Melody, her sister Sahara, and Sahara’s billionaire boyfriend Keith. Melody is unemployed and living with her successful, supermodel sister Sahara. Sahara is dating billionaire Keith and is hopelessly in love with him, but Melody hates him and is convinced there is something sinister lurking under Keith’s charming exterior. Melody is determined to find out the truth behind Keith’s charming façade and prove that he is not a good person and is not the man her sister thinks that he is. Danger lurks in the shadows as Melody tries to prove who Keith really is and neither of the sisters may be safe when Sahara gets a stalker.
This was a fast-paced, intense, and captivating storyline with characters that are instantly relatable and engaging. Melody has the best interests of her sister at heart even though it is hard for Sahara to see. There is a history between them that involves meddling in past relationships, so this plays a factor in how Sahara treats Melody when Melody tells her that she does not like or trust Keith. Keith is someone that you instantly dislike because he comes across as slimy, manipulative, condescending, and arrogant. The author did a great job of building the suspense and mystery in this book as we learn who we can or cannot trust. The twists and turns that will grab your attention and keep you reading to find out what happens next. This book had romance, action, danger, mystery, stalking, and obsession.

This intriguing forbidden age-gap romance will keep you curious and turning the pages from the first page to the last. I enjoyed the slow-burn bdsm nature of the relationship. The ending was certainly a cliff hanger and I will have to read book 2 in this new series.

This author certainly knows how to write a book that will grab your attention. This book is fact paced and edgy.

Although i only discovered this author recently, I have really come to enjoy her work. This is a great book that is worth the read.

Thrilling All is not what it seems in this twisted story. Melody has so many things going on and add in a possible evil stalker, what’s a girl to do? I really enjoyed this story and was glued from start to finish. I have read a few books from this author and I enjoy the writing style. This book has romance, mystery, a billionaire and even a love triangle. Recommend.

I never hesitate to pick up any book from this author ever….and I really liked the suspense of this story and just when I had it all figured out…I did not have every piece. This story is fast paced and really draws you in.
What happens when one sister constantly meddles in her other sisters love life? That is what happens when Melody totally despises her sister, Sahara’s boyfriend Keith. Call it sister intuition of sorts, but Melody will do anything to prove to Sahara that her boyfriend is nothing but trouble. When a stalker comes into play for Sahara’s affections and lies upon lies are spun in many webs….Will Melody and Sahara be safe?
This is a well written romantic suspense that had me guessing. Highly Recommended if you love suspense, danger, lies, twists and turns!

“Fear is the name of his game…” Stalked By the Devil is the second book in the To Kiss A Stalker series by Stacy Deanne. This is a gripping story with intrigue, drama, mystery, BWWM, angst, obsession, stalking, tension, and danger. This is the second book in the series, but it can be read as a standalone, but having said that, I am interested to see what might have happened in the first book, so. I will be going back to explore it and find out what it was all about. The story was quite gripping and a little dark and intense at times, with a bit of a ‘mystery’ to unravel. I enjoyed to dramatic developments- and the tension that Stacy-Deanne injected into her story. Looking forward to exploring more of Stacy Deanne’s books…

Undeniable is such a thrilling story! It is frustrating in a fantastic way and keeps you on the edge of your seat! Military PTSD is a tragedy that leaves our main hero certain he is just the wrong man while the heroine sees him as anything but the wrong one. Add in danger, twists you absolutely cannot predict, and a spicier BDSM side, and this story had me hooked! Not for the faint of heart, this book will have you staying up late to read the next chapter!

This is an author that I have enjoyed reading from the first book I picked up. This is an author that writes with a lot of heart and soul. Her characters pop off the pages and into your world. This book is no different. This is a well written story where the author used details to make the story realistic. A fast paced, engaging story that is hard to put down. This is a romance story that has much going on in it. I felt that the author did a great job of not getting me confused with the characters. I enjoyed watching their growth and chemistry throughout the story. They add to the entertainment value of the story which makes it easy to read. This is a great romance story that I highly recommend

Given the chance to work with an idol I think we would all jump to do that. Cassandra has dreamed of working with Chandler since the day before her 13th birthday. A few months shy of turning 26 she is at Dreamers and doing just that. But will her ideas of him change when she learns all the sides of him?
Cassandra is a aerial silk student and her dream is to perform. Chandler is not only the best but he is also a professor at the school and her mentor. But he has another side of him, another side of performing one that is more intimate than the silks. Chandler is trying his hardest to keep so much of his life secret. Cassandra is a breathe of fresh air and making him cross all sorts of lines and boundaries.
Cassandra is running from her own secrets while Chandler is hiding his own. Both fighting demons but also fighting the feelings they have for one another. There is no denying the chemistry is there for both of them, despite the student/teacher and age difference. This is just book 1 and I absolutely can’t wait to get my hands on book 2.

3.5 stars Stalked by the Devil by Stacy-Deanne is another thriller story in the To Kiss a Stalker series where the MCs are BWWM. Stacy-Deanne’s stories are fast paced and this one is no different. It is full of suspense, intrigue, thrills and mayhem, crazy and a little darkness. Some things were a little predictable but overall, it was an interesting and enjoyable read. This will keep you on your toes at times. She is on a mission to prove that not all that glitters is gold. She will find the proof that the devil belongs in h*ll. But in her search for the truth will she find more than she bargained for. He’s rich, successful, and gorgeous He’s dangerous. He’s a guy who always gets what he wants, and he wants her. He is a stalker, an obsessed man. I wonder what is next from Stacy-Deanne.

The Devil may come in any form, male or female. This story kept me in suspense as to who the true guilty party was. The characters run the gamut from sweet to sleazy and, man, I loved every one of them. The storyline had it’s moments but if you love romantic suspense, this is the one for you. Lovers of steam will be overjoyed at the touch of steam in this one also. Romance, suspense and drama abound. Will family and long awaited love win? You’ll have to read to find out. <br/><br/> <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/list/150094264-shelly-kittell”>View all my reviews</a>

Fear is the name of his game. Nothing’s going right in Melody Carter’s life right now. She’s broke, unemployed, and living in the shadow of her successful fashion-model sister Sahara. But that ain’t even the half of Melody’s problems, the biggest one is Keith Taylor, Sahara’s new boyfriend who’s slowly worming his way into the sisters’ lives. Keith’s perfect to everyone else: successful, gorgeous, and at 35 he’s the co-CEO of his family’s billion-dollar company. But Melody feels she has every reason to hate him from his arrogance, his controlling ways, and how every woman he’s had a relationship with seems to disappear.
While everyone else seems blinded by the silver-tongued bachelor, Melody will do anything in her power to prove that Keith is the devil himself. Tropes: Billionaire, stalking, interracial, love triangle, office romance, first love, second-chance, opposites attract

I thoroughly enjoyed Obedience. I knew there’d be tension. I knew there’d be control. I even knew it would be forbidden fruit. What I didn’t know was that it was going to turn out the way it did. The author wrote a beautifully painful story of struggle, control, tension. Sometimes there’s things in the world we can’t have, well at least that’s what we tell ourselves. And that’s exactly what Chandler is doing. He can try and justify it all he wants. Cassandra is my student, I’m too old for her, it could jeopardize my job. It’s all crap there’s a bigger issue at play. The question being: Will that bigger issue be enough to keep from succumbing to his desires? And if not, can he keep her safe? Cassandra idolized Chandler. He’s the reason she chose her career path. However the man runs so hot and cold, she can’t keep up. She wants him, but does he want her? The character growth was written wonderfully, the question will always remain: Will they give into what they truly want? This book caught me by surprise, I didn’t expect it to play out the way it did. But it worked and I can say I was satisfied to an extent. I’m looking forward to reading book 2. Now it’s time to look for other books by this offer, while you pick up/download/and start reading this book.

I didn’t really know what to expect out of this book, considering I have nearly zero knowledge of aerialists, silks, tricks, circus performers, etc. However, I know I didn’t expect two separately voiced POV scenarios that clearly gave a view of each different personality and the people in their lives, beautiful imagery, such great story and relationship building with such a wonderfully fleshed out array of characters…I really loved it!
Chandler is a world class silks aerialist in his family’s circus, as well as helps teach and mentor at the college they run to train the best of the best. The first half of the book is really how he’s losing it as his life falls apart. He just finalized his divorce after 20 years with his wife – who almost immediately married his best friend. Aging has him struggling to feel like he’s still “got it”, he feels numb, underwhelmed, or angry all the time, has been drinking too much, is nursing a repetitive knee injury, is struggling to focus and keep his partner safe in their silks act, and now his father has roped him into both sitting in for an auditioning process he doesn’t want to be a part of, and 6 months later, being forced to take over his ex wife’s classes suddenly at the college. He is constantly on edge and upon meeting Cassandra, becomes consumed with her. He drives himself mad trying to avoid her and not being able to stand being away from her. Will she turn out to be his saving grace? The one who learns all his secrets and still is by his side?
Cassandra is the daughter of performers herself, and upon seeing Chandler in one of his acts when she was a child, she immediately knew she wanted to do what he did. It consumed her life, practicing, reading up on his family and their circus, learning his routines, taking steps forward to end up exactly where she wanted to be – performing with Chandler in the silks under the big top. After a decade of struggling, she finally made it through college and to the audition process for Dreams Academy. Luckily, it happened to be the set of auditions that Chandler was forced to attend, and she wowed him with her abilities. Once she was accepted to the Academy, she was also hired as a TA and ended up being the TA to Chandler. She is constantly enamored with him, drawn to him, inspired by his talents while being either irritated with his surliness or very confused after feeling she was getting closer to him. Chandler obviously has some secrets, but she has her own and intent on protecting them. Will she be able to protect her heart from Chandler?
