Upcoming Release: Elite Metal - Sterling's Seduction by Sabrina York

COMING FEBRUARY 10th: Elite Metal is coming out in February—a novel approach to collections, where all the stories intertwine! Our heroes are ex-military secretive operatives, who all belong to a kickass motorcycle club. Sound yummy? I know! 
Follow  us on Facebook for release updates!


Elite Metal – Book One in the Elite Warriors Series

For decades the US Marines funded a top-secret unit known as Elite Recon. A deadly group of men and women sent to infiltrate dozens of countries completely undetected. Mission objectives so extreme casualties were not only probable, but expected.

The current batch of operatives had returned from hundreds of assignments unscathed…until one mission went horribly wrong. Several men lost their lives and the group disbanded. The remaining leathernecks were scattered in the wind with new identities. They were told to blend in. Be normal. Or face being forever silenced just like their fallen brothers.

Now, two years later, each living member of the group is kidnapped and given a chance to make things right. But this time they’re no longer under the thumb of Uncle Sam. A mysterious private backer who knows about their past has brought them back together. No longer are they forced to turn a blind eye to the lost and forsaken.

A new life. A new future…Elite Metal.

Scorching romance from Anna Alexander and Jennifer Kacey, Heather Long, Sabrina York Rebecca Royce, Saranna DeWylde and Roxie Rivera


Sterling’s Seduction
By Sabrina York

When Sterling spots a reporter masquerading as a waitress in a dingy bar in Deep Ellum, he suspects she’s investigating the team. And that’s something he just cannot allow to happen. Too many lives are at stake. He will do everything in his power to learn the truth—even seduce her. And to stop her story from coming out? He might even tie her to the bed.

Nothing is off the table when it comes to keeping his brothers safe. Nothing. It’s a damn shame she’s everything he’s ever wanted. It’s a damn shame her touch warms his cold, dead heart.

READ AN EXCERPT

As she rounded the corner, her steps stalled.
Because there he was, leaning against his bike. Waiting for her.
Well, she hoped he was waiting for her. When he saw her, he unfolded his long legs and stood.
“Did you change your mind?” she asked, trying for a flippant tone.
His beautiful eyebrow arched. “About what?”
“Taking me home?” Might as well be brash.
He gestured to his bike. “My alternator is shot. I’m waiting for a ride.”
“Ah.” Why disappointment flooded her was a mystery. Or not.
“Was there…an offer on the table?” His voice was a low melody that danced on the skeins of air. It was annoying. And not.
“Hey. I’m not the one who walked away.” She tried not to let her petulance show.
He stepped closer and searched her face. She let him. Not hiding at all. Or not hiding everything. She let her interest show.
“Let’s get one thing straight, Pigtails—”
“Pigtails?”
“Yeah. Pigtails.” He flicked her hair, reminding her how she’d pulled it up. She’d been going for backwoods innocent, but it might have backfired on her. With a harsh movement, she yanked out the rubber bands and her hair fell around her face. His lashes flickered. Something that looked like hunger washed over his features.
“What do you want to get straight?”
His jaw clenched. “I don’t like questions. Pure and simple. Understood?”
The way he said the word, with a thread of dominance in his tone, sent a shiver through her. She lowered her eyes and nodded. “Understood. So…do you? Want to come home with me? No questions asked?”
“Maybe.” He checked his watch. “Looks like my ride isn’t going to show, anyway.”
Hardly the flood of interest she would have preferred. Irritation rippled. “Or I can give you a lift home.” And when his cheek bunched, “Or call you a cab.”
“I’d rather go home with you.” He stepped closer, too close, and pulled her against him. His fingers were harsh on her flesh, his insistence alluring. Yes, this was what she wanted. Something rough. Something ruthless. Something demanding.
Hunger rose in her, swamping her desire to finish this story and get back home. Hell, she could probe him with questions later. After. This need was far more pressing.
When he lowered his head, she caught a whiff of his aftershave and her knees locked. He was tall, muscled and rough around the edges. Just the kind of guy she’d always craved.
His lips touched hers and she nearly collapsed. It was a wild rush, a tumult of sensation. For a starved woman, as she was, it was irresistible. She couldn’t help but kiss him back, a manic frenzy. Her passion seemed to spur his on, and he wrapped himself around her, tipped his head and deepened the kiss. His hands roved over her back, her hips, her ass. Nothing tentative. Nothing tender.
When he lifted his head, she was a bowl of Jell-O. Ready and willing.
“So do you want to?” Her voice caught on the invitation.
“Yeah.” He yanked her tighter and his cock gouged into her belly, hard and needy. “Yeah. I want to. Just no more questions.”
No more questions.
Right.

100th Review Celebration - Giveaway! 2 Books by Sabrina York

It's been a long time coming, folks! 100 reviews. Had some rough years, a lot of hiatuses, name changes, lost all our readers; but we're back and we're strong and we're not going nowheres! It can only get better from here on out.

So in celebration of Book Verse's 100th review, and as a thank you to both new and returning readers, we are holding our very first raffle(s)! Squeee - am I the only excited one here? Free books, can I get a hellz yeah!? I went back and looked through the reviews from the last couple of months and picked a few of our 4 and 5 star rated books to give away. 

We have a total of four different books, by four different authors. I say this calls for a little author spotlight! So for the next four days, we will give you guys some general information on each author, some stalking links. And we'll also relay any special interactions we've had with them. Entering is super easy, just scroll down to the rafflecopter widget and follow the steps to get entries. We will be verifying entries, so no cheating! :)

We thank you again for your support and hope you'll stay with us for future reviews, author interviews, and other fun stuff!

 ***

Welcome to our 4th and final day of our 100th review celebration. Don't forget to enter the raffle for our day 1 prize - an ecopy of Balustrade by Mark Henry, day 2 - two ebooks by Dakota Cassidy, and day 3 - an ecopy of Unlovable by Cynthia St. Aubin. What better way to wrap things up than with the lady that set this whole celebration in motion; Her Royal Hotness herself, Sabrina York!

Sabrina's too hot for a real picture. ;)


About Sabrina (taken from her website): Her Royal Hotness, Sabrina York, writes naked erotic fiction for fans who like it hot, hard and balls-to-the-wall, and erotic romance and fantasy for readers who prefer a slow burn to passion. 

An award winning author of over 20 hot, humorous stories for smart and sexy readers. Her titles range from sweet & sexy erotic romance to scorching BDSM.

I met Sabrina, I believe also through Mark Henry. In fact, it might have even been the same FB event where I met Cynthia - listen, I go to A LOT of events, I can't keep track of all of em' - don't judge me.

Sabrina seemed like a nice enough individual; her books looked good too. I added some to my TBR list. Then I started bumping into her a lot at different events, and shortly after meeting her I won one of her books. I'm a sucker for free books. I was excited, but I had so many other books I had to get through before I got to hers - I bumped it up as far up as I could, but with ARCs and other prior responsibilities (my word is my bond) her book had to wait. When I finally got around to it, I completely understood why she was known as Her Royal Hotness. But more than hot steamy reads, her books are intelligently written - because she's a smart lady - and if there's something I love more than a good sex scene, it's a well written book.

But Sabrina is so much more than her books, as I soon learned. She is an amazing individual. She's funny, she's nice, and so generous. She gives tiaras away, people! How much more generous can one get!? Oh, and she loves bacon. Anybody that loves bacon is top notch in my book.

She has quickly become one of my favorite authors and one of my favorite people.

Today I will be gifting an Amazon kindle copy of Rebound. It's the first book in her Tryst Island series and the first book I read. Sabrina, the generous individual that she is, has also decided to donate a second ebook to the winner (see what I mean?) - winner's choice, as long as it's a single title. So go ahead and enter below.

And that's a wrap people! Thank you so much for participating, and don't forget all raffles will remain open for 7 days from the day they were first posted - so keep sharing, keep retweeting, and we'll see you during our next review. ;)

Training Tess by Sabrina York

When Jared spots his sister’s very vanilla assistant in a BDSM club, he can hardly believe it. He’s lusted after Tess for years but didn’t think she could handle his darker needs. Like his predilection for cuffs. And whips. And spanking. Hell, for domination of every kind. But as soon as he sees her wearing a collar, he’s lost to his desire. He vows to claim her for his own. 

For Tess, dressing up as a sub while researching an article she’s writing is a lark—until she sees Jared in the club. She may be new to the Dom/sub scene, but she knows what she wants. With Jared—and only Jared—can her deep, primal desires come to light and be fulfilled. Let the lessons begin. 

Reader Advisory: One of the heroine’s lessons involves some sexy touching from a feisty Domme. 

***
 
I've had this book on my TBR list for some time now. The cover caught my eye; it's my favorite Sabrina York cover. I got this book as an early birthday gift and decided I needed to read it ASAP - I waited long enough. Reading this book just solidified my love of Sabrina York. She has quickly become one of my favorite authors. It's as if she's writing these books just for me - they contain everything I like in a hot steamy read and even things I thought I wouldn't like. She has a way of making scenarios I never cared for, enticing. (Gonna have to revisit those scenarios at a later date, hehe.)

I am enamored with Jared. He is a Dom with a playful attitude; but don't you date touch his woman! This playful man will quickly be replaced by a ferocious beast, and he will pummel you. I kinda love that in a man, so of course I was hooked. Tess, to me, was your average heroine. I didn't anything special about her. But the way Jared viewed her - that I liked. That all consuming need to have her, and not just in his bed for a few nights, but to have all of her forever. The way he resisted her, thinking she was too vanilla for him. His vow to make her his when he saw her at that BDSM club. Seeing Tess through Jared's eyes was amazing.

Is it weird to be jealous of a fictional character?

I enjoyed all of the characters in this story, even Dennison. He served a purpose and without him we wouldn't have the great scene at the end. I am very curious about Jared's sister, Marla. Especially after the Epilogue. I hope there's a story with her as the lead - I'm going to have to check on that.

Fantastic read. I highly recommend. You guys, it's really good! Sabrina York doesn't hold the title of Your Royal Hotness for nothing!


Uncensored comments from Kindle:

  • I'm not a fan of mirrors but I too like to have a mirror in front of me while my partner is doing things behind me. It is such a freaking turn on! (TMI? Screw it, it's my blog!)
  • Still, before he drifted off he gently tucked the covers around her and wound the end of her leash around his fist. So she couldn't slip away in the night. - Favorite line.
  • "No one else will even notice." - Yeahuh, ok.
  • Jared is so naughty! And a smartass too! Love it!

Took half a star off because I wanted more story. I wanted to see how Jared dealt with waiting for Tess to come around - he was sure of himself, but he wasn't sure of her and it was too soon. Sometimes it's a double-edged sword writing a really good book. ;)


GUESS WHAT!? THIS WAS OUR 100TH REVIEW!!! COME BACK TOMORROW FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL.

Rebound by Sabrina York

Kristi Cross has had the hots for
her friend, Cameron Jackson as long as she can remember, but she knows she's
not his type. She's nothing like the women he dates. So when he suggests they
play for a kiss over a game of Hearts, Kristi can't resist. Even if she loses,
she wins. Because she's finally going to taste him.

Of course, one kiss can quickly
become something altogether steamier, especially when both parties are on the
rebound...


***

Rebound by Sabrina York is the first installment of her Tryst Island series. She is known as 'Her Royal Hotness' and now I can see why! I devoured this book - and not just because it was a novella. There are numerous reasons why I read/enjoy certain authors; some authors I read just for the storyline, others for the characters, others for the sex scenes. Sabrina York has it all! The premise of the story I really enjoyed - who hasn't had a crush on a friend and hoped it would lead where Kristi and Cam's friendship led? The characters came to life for me, and I loved their banter. I'm so enamored with this bunch. They are awesome together. Cept Bella...I could do without Bella.

The sex scenes were smokin' hot too! And I really liked that, even though they were explicit, it wasn't just porn - the characters' emotions were there, and it was more than just fucking.

And on top of all this, the whole book itself was very well written. Sabrina York is very intellectual, and it made this story an even better experience for me! Rebound was sweet, hot, and funny as hell. It always snuck up on me, the laughter, all the way till the end. A perfect ending, and funny to boot!

And now for my random comments from my Kindle:
  • His battery ram was primed and ready to go. - LMAO!
  • Holy. Fuck. is right! Do I have any long time male friends? *Goes in search of male friends.*
  • Cam, Holt, AND Drew!? Sheesh, Kristi of the golden pussy.
  • His cock swelled. His hips churned. His body wept. Sanity fled. -My gawd, it's a freaking poem!!! My favorite line(s).
  • Incontrovertibly - My favorite word in the whole book. Told ya, smart cookie!

Royal Hotness indeed!
