In Working It, New York Times bestselling author Kendall Ryan delivered a sexy and addictive contemporary romance about Emmy Clarke, a sweet southern girl out of her depth in New York City’s cutthroat fashion industry, and Ben Shaw, the hot male model who introduced her to a world of pleasure. But their story is far from complete…

Emmy Clarke is no quitter. Toughened by her experience working for fashion heavyweight Fiona Stone, Emmy has come a long way from her country girl roots, embracing her fast-paced and unpredictable life in New York City.

Though that life comes with more than a few complications.

First there’s the mystery of Fiona’s pregnancy, which may or may not involve Emmy’s boyfriend, superstar male model Ben Shaw. Emmy has always known that Ben comes with more baggage than she can handle—and not the Louis Vuitton kind. Yet Ben is the only man who has ever loved Emmy for who she is, and she wants nothing more than to do the same for him, even if it means forgiving his past and overlooking their wildly different lifestyles.

But when a shocking secret from Ben’s past comes to light, unraveling all of their progress, Emmy must decide if their relationship is worth the fight, or if it’s time to ignore her passion for him and let go.



I love this sequel! I was so scared to start it because I thought the author would rip apart my all-time favorite couple and break my poor little heart! I really, really enjoyed CRAVING HIM just as much as the first.
Emmy and Ben have such a strong connection and I loved that Kendall Ryan did not destroy this. Usually the second book in a series the author breaks a couple up, and more than half the book they are separated, only to end up together at the end. 

In CRAVING HIM, Emmy and Ben are together for almost the entire book. They face a lot of issues, but go through them together. I LOVED THIS! It was such a huge change from all the other books I've read lately. I have become such a big fan of Kendall Ryan’s books and will continue to read them. I have her on my AUTO BUY list. She writes great stories filled with believable characters, strong situations, lots of humor, and tons more. I just cannot get enough.

CRAVING HIM was a great sequel with a perfect ending. Ben grows a lot in this book and you really see the change in him. He was true to his word. Despite his past and all the loose screws in his head, he knew he wanted Emmy and was willing to change his life and give up all the fame and fortune if he had to just to keep her. I am literally blushing writing this review. Love me some Ben!

My only complaint was the wedge that finally does come between them (NOT FOR LONG). I didn’t really think that was a good enough reason to really get upset. And it sucks that I can’t really go into details because it would be a spoiler. So, back to why I love this book so much. ;)

I just do! It’s steamy, entertaining, romantic, and very emotional. You definitely have to read WORKING IT – book one in the series in order to really follow book two. Don’t worry… it’s worth it!


A definite Good Choice for Reading!

Review Of His Alone By Keta Diablo

Language: English
Source: Amazon.Com (link to purchase HERE)

Genre: Erotica BDSM*
Age: Adult 18+*

*I added the age restriction and genre(although Amazon does mention it is Erotica BDSM, it is just not represented in the format I have presented). The age restriction and genre was not provided by Amazon.Com.

Blurb:

Warning: This is an erotica novella with explicit language and sex.

Cleo has a problem, when she met Elliott, the maestro of Doms, eight months ago, he laid out the rules - no questions, no whining, and definitely no ties. But the lines blurred somewhere along the line and she crossed them. Now, she's in over her head with feelings for this beautiful man she shouldn't have. For her own preservation, she must end their weekly sessions and eat her heart in the process. But her Dom has problems of his own. Has he stepped over the same hazy boundaries?

I really enjoyed reading Keta's novella His Alone. Keta has a way of telling a story that leaves you salivating for more.

Cleo and Elliot both have a role to play in their little arrangement. Elliott is the Dom and Cleo is his Sub. They have a standing Friday night arrangement that has been mutually gratifying for the both of them. That is until Cleo comes to realize she needs more from her Dom then he originally offered in their arrangement.

I enjoyed reading about Cleo's struggle to come to terms with what she wants, and how she goes about dealing with the fallout. Cleo's Dom Elliott, had more layers than I was expecting, which was a breath of fresh air to me. Keta knows how to make these two characters relatable to everyone. On a scale from 1-10 I give His Alone a 10. It was a great fast read with enough kink to leave you satisfied. If you are looking for a HOT, quick read with some substance than His Alone is the novella for you. I encourage everyone adult 18+ to run out and pick yourselves up a copy and learn why, for Cleo, some things are worth taking a chance for.
