He had problems of his own. But once Marissa's under his protection, he will do whatever he can to keep her safe. Even force her to face her deepest fears.
My review:
This one was definitely very hot! I really liked it for the most part. Marissa annoyed me at first with how easy it was for her to jump on the back of a strangers bike running from another biker. She was so scared of Rip because he was part of a "biker gang" then without anything thought just goes with another biker. But then I did like her. She has some spunk to her.
I was also kind of hot and cold with Killer. He's super sexy but at times I didn't like how he acted with Marissa. They were extremely sexy together but he tended to come off as a jerk sometimes.
There was a little f/f action that I could have done without but overall I liked the story.
Pleasure Point (San Francisco Doms, Book 3)
by Eden Bradley
Genre: BDSM Erotic Romance
The island always knows what you need…
Miranda lives in paradise— the exclusive Eden resort, the ultimate in fantasy retreats. Roan, the resort’s dungeon consultant, lives part-time on the island and full-time in the past. When the sexy Dominant and the sultry pastry chef both receive one of the island’s mysterious invitations they spend a sizzling week together in the dungeon suite. They’re left breathless, wanting more… and hopelessly falling. Both have been scarred by loss, both have created a nearly impenetrable shell. The intensity and intimacy of kink might be the perfect recipe to open Miranda’s heart again. But can the man who fulfills her every secret desire ever give her what she needs the most?
My Review:
It took me a bit to get into this one. It was a good read but I just didn't connect to much with it.
I found some of the BDSM stuff interesting. I didn't know some of the rules that they talked about in this. So it was neat to learn a bit more about it.
I liked both of the characters. At times they were frustrating but they fit together really well. They both had a lot of baggage and were widowed. The sex was very hot!
So I liked this one but didn't love it. If it was a longer story and not a short maybe it would be more believable for me. But overall still a decent read.
Meet the Authors
Hi. I'm Opal Carew, a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author. I write erotic romance for St. Martin's Press and Samhain Publishing, and I self-publish stories. I also write romance as Amber Carew.
So why do I like writing erotic romance? I like being able to push beyond traditional boundaries. I like dealing with a female character who is growing and evolving - questioning her sexual boundaries and pushing past them. My stories usually include menage a trois. It is great fun to write a heroine choosing between two equally appealing heroes... or more.
These aren't women who just jump into bed with anyone. They find themselves in an unusual situation - something exciting and erotic - but a situation where they have to push themselves beyond their comfort level. As a result, they grow as a person. So often fear holds us back - of what others will think of us, of what we will think about ourselves - and we don't follow our hearts. These women push past that fear.
