FILTHY-ENGLISH-EBOOK.jpg

Blurb

Two weeks before her wedding, Remi Montague’s fiancĂ© drops her faster than a drunken sorority girl in stilettos. Armed with her best friend and a bottle of tequila, she hops a plane to London to drown her sorrows before fall semester begins at Whitman University.

She didn't plan on attending a masquerade party.

She sure didn’t plan on waking up next to the British bad boy who broke her heart three years ago—the devastatingly handsome and naked Dax Blay. Furthermore, she has no clue how they acquired matching tattoos.

Once back at Whitman together, they endeavor to pretend they never had their night of unbridled passion in London.

But that’s damn hard to do when you live in the same house…

One night. Two damaged hearts. The passion of a lifetime.




I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Holy hot summer break!

If you are in need of a quick beach read or afternoon alone with a excellent book and a porch swing FILTHY ENGLISH is it!

I couldn't rip my eyes away form Remi and Dax... 
Fate definitely has a way of getting her point across. Young and wild when Remington crosses his path for the first time Dax Blay never forgot the beautiful young woman who walked out on him. (You would have walked out too!)
Remi Montague has a to-do list. Dax isn't on it.
Well... actually,he's always been on it but after a whirlwind weekend,a shattered heart and then some. Remi has moved on to a nice safe boy.(The one your mother would pick out) 
I was a total mess with this story. Laughing,crying,laughing again. Heart broken like Remi and emotionally drained like Dax. Oh... wait there's that Fate girl again. 

I'm not a spoiler so you have to read this beautiful story to understand why life is hard for us when we're young and stupid and why sometimes we just have to let go and let the universe have its way. 

To say the least I frickin LOVED FIlthy English!
Five bloody good stars from me.

Without much thought except for comfort, instinctively I pressed myself against him, fitting into his arms as easy as breathing. He leaned against the brick wall of the neighboring building and wrapped me up, sensing my need to be grounded.
I don’t know how long we stood like that—maybe a minute, maybe five—but soon our breaths were in sync; the rise and fall of his chest in perfect accord with mine.
One of his hands traced down my spine and then up. He outlined my shoulder blades with his fingertips. His hands drifted to my hips then caressed back up to my hair, massaging my scalp.
But what had started as an innocent hug changed.
Fire licked my skin everywhere he touched. Of their own accord, my hands slid down to his waist and teased the line where his jeans rested on his hips. I went further, my fingers toying with the V at his hip until I felt him harden against me.
Lips brushed the top of my hair. “Remi . . . look at me,” he said, his voice raspy.
If you look up, you’re going to kiss him . . .
I tilted my head up and his mouth fused with mine in an instant.
Insistent. Wild. Hot. Yes! This is what I needed.
I groaned, and my hands rushed to his shoulders and dug in.
He was wrong—terribly wrong—for me, but it felt so right.
I felt wonderfully alive, revved up, as if I could crush a car with my bare hands, or push Dax against the wall and fuck him senseless. I recognized the feeling for what it was—an I almost-died-and-now-I-want-to-experience-life feeling.
“Wait,” he breathed as I ran my hand under his shirt. “It’s adrenaline. You’ve been through a trauma. You don’t really want this—”
“Shhh.” I lifted his shirt and kissed his chest, my tongue flicking over his nipple. “You taste like every good thing I’ve ever wanted.”
His taut restraint snapped, and he swayed into me. “God, I can’t tell you no.”

Ben
Those gold eyes were the first thing I noticed. I wanted more than anything to get lost in them, drown in her, to let go of my fears and doubts my past had left behind.
But it wasn’t just me I had to consider.
My son came first.
She's a force to be reckoned with, though. She was everywhere, in my dreams even, tempting me to throw caution to the wind.
And I was weak.
I gave into my clawing desire and let myself enjoy one night with her, having no clue she’d change me forever.
Once wasn't enough. I became addicted. I craved her – her scent, her skin, her smile, her eyes…her love.
I need Samantha.

Samantha

My life was uncomplicated. It was free and easy.
Then I met him, the man with the blue-violet eyes that entranced me.
I had a feeling I was making a big mistake when agreeing to one night of carnal bliss, but I was unable to walk away. I just couldn’t have foreseen how big of one it was.
He turned my world upside-down, working his way into my heart until it beat only for him. Now everything is complex, and there are secrets he’s not telling me.
Will he ever let me in?
Time would tell, but one thing is sure – I’d walk through hell and back, feel the blistering lick of each flame against my flesh, for just the promise of Ben.

Not intended for anyone under the age of eighteen due to language and sexual content.

Note from the author:
Fated Bliss is the second book in The Bliss Series, and though it is recommended to read Finding Bliss first, it’s not needed. Fated Bliss is a standalone novel with an HEA.

“Oh, my God,” Samantha breathed, her words drowned out by the pillow against her face.

She was laying on her stomach, her ass up in the air, with both hands clutching the comforter. She never looked more spellbinding.

“Spread them wider,” I demanded.

Her body swayed from side to side as she widened her stance.

“Perfect,” I murmured and licked her again.

Heavy pants reverberated through the room. The taste of her on my lips was ambrosia, better than anything in the world.

She was delicious.

I dipped my tongue inside her, her pussy clenching around me. As she rocked against me, wedging my tongue deeper, I about spilled myself all over she sheets.

Sassy girl.

Redoubling my efforts, I moaned around her pussy and fingered her clit.

“Ben,” she groaned. “I need you.”

“Just a second,” I told her, pulling away.

As I sat back on my haunches, I slipped two fingers inside her and watched in fascination as her body accepted them.

Magnificent.

She was a dream, letting me do what I wanted to her body in every way imaginable.

“You were beautiful tonight,” I whispered, nipping her ass cheek. “But you look decadent like this.”

She always looked decadent after orgasming, her face dreamy, her skin misted with sweat. I was working her into orgasm number three, and she thrived under it gloriously.

“If you had it your way, we wouldn’t leave the room,” she replied, then moaned loudly as I flicked her clit.

“You’re right.” I slapped her bottom. It wasn’t enough to hurt her, just sting a tiny bit.

She loved it.

“Oh, God,” she mewled.

I took her clit between two fingers and pinched lightly.

“Please, Ben…inside now. Enough is enough.”

I added a third finger, getting her ready for me. “Is that better?” I teased.

“No. You. I want you inside me,” she whined.

“I am inside you, baby girl.” I twisted my fingers and slid them across her g-spot.

She shuddered hard. “You know what I mean.”

“Tell me.”

“You’re an asshole – you know that?”

That mouth.

“Samantha…”

“Fine. Okay, I’ll say it!” she griped, shooting fire at me over her shoulder. “I want your cock.”

“Mmmm, you know exactly what to say to turn me on.”

Hearing her say dirty words spurred me higher.

I leaned in and licked her some more, tasting her essence.

Samantha cried out, her legs trembling.

Enough.

I was hurting already. If she only knew how much it tormented me when she pleaded. It made my balls ache and my cock excruciatingly hard. There was nothing better than Samantha delirious with need and begging for what only I could give her.

I savored her for a few more moments. She was lingering right on the precipice, and I wanted to draw it out a little bit more. Right when she was about to sail over the cliff, I pulled away and slipped my fingers from her.

“No!” she wailed.

“Shhh,” I whispered, petting her back, and scooted closer. “I’ve got you.”

I took myself in hand and pressed against her entrance. As she shuddered again, I thrust all the way home.

God, nothing has ever felt so good.

“Ahhh!” Samantha screamed, her head flying back. All of her gorgeous hair cascaded down her back as she lifted herself on her elbows.

Iridescent eyes met mine as she watched me thrust into her. I gazed into them, hoping she saw all the things I had yet said. By the swirling adulation staring back at me, I believed she did.

I kept my rhythm slow, wanting to drive her insane. She was already spasming around me, but she wouldn’t find her release at this pace. I’d been inside her enough to know.

Gripping her hips, I helped her drive herself on me. With every stroke, her ass shook and jiggled. It was a pretty sight, enough so that I started pounding into her, my need getting the better of me.

“Yes,” Samantha hissed, meeting my demands. “Honey…yes.”

“Touch yourself for me, sweetheart.”

Samantha shifted as I took her, sinking myself into her searing heat over and over again. Fingers slipped around the base of my cock as she felt us together, ripping a gasp from my throat.

“You feel amazin’, handsome,” she purred throatily.

“Keep doing that and it won’t last long,” I warned, my voice guttural.

“Good.”

**BT** Almost Innocent ~ Carina Adams


 New Dark Romance by Carina Adams!

Almost Innocent is NOW LIVE!






Callaghan. A name synonymous with power and fear. A family of untouchable criminals.
As a teenager, Gabriella Forte had no intention of getting to know the town's most dangerous brothers. Once Dustin set his sights on her, she was trapped. There was only one way out of her personal hell.
Declan was determined to break away from his family's shadow. Until he fell in love with the one woman he couldn't have. She changed everything.
Life isn't always kind. Love can hurt. Sometimes you need to sacrifice yourself to protect the people you care about.
It's been twelve years since Declan did the unthinkable and went to prison. He promised to stay away from Gabby and his nephew. That's one vow he can't keep.
Things aren't always what they seem. Facts are only as credible as the person stating them. The truth doesn't always set you free.

Warning: This is a dark romance. If domestic violence bothers you, if you can't read violence in literature, or you are looking for a light and fluffy read, this book is not for you.





I turned into my driveway so fast I almost sideswiped the gate, then I gunned the engine, slamming on the brakes at the last minute, so I didn’t collide with my brother’s Jeep. Leaving my car door open, I raced into the house and up the stairs, then I threw my weight against the door to Dustin’s room.

Just as the gunshot echoed throughout the house, shaking the walls as if an earthquake had hit.

His room was destroyed, furniture broken and scattered around, holes in the walls, the floor covered in debris. The scent of blood hit me like a freight train. The taste of copper invaded my mouth, almost as if it was me who had been wounded, and I stumbled backward as my eyes moved over the room, desperate to find her. The closet door was flung open, hanging from only the bottom hinge.

On the floor, just inside the closet, was a man, weeping. He clutched something in his arms as he rocked back and forth, sharp wails of pain seeping from his body.

No! No. I raced to them, fell to the floor at her feet, climbed up her legs, and shoved the trembling mass away from her. Her eyes were still open, yet there was no life left in them. One of her hands hung limply at her side while the other was curled over her rounded belly, almost protectively. Fuck, no!

I sank onto my knees next to her, pulling her up to me and burying my face in her neck. Not my Gabby. She couldn’t be gone! Without her, I had no reason to breathe.

Despair filled every part of me as I clung to the woman I loved, desperate to rewind the clock and get her back. Just for a few more minutes. Just to tell her how much she mattered to me.

“She’s gone. She’ll never be yours,” the sinister voice I’d grown to hate goaded. “She always thought she was never good enough for you.” He barked out a psychotic laugh. “You. Bitch was never good enough for me.”

Without moving away from her, because I couldn’t physically let go yet, I yanked my Desert Eagle from its holster and aimed at my brother. “You were never fucking good enough for her.” I pulled the trigger without a single regret. “She’ll never be yours.”

The look on Dustin’s face was one of betrayal and surprise. I didn’t know why he felt either. My loyalty to him died the day he’d discovered I was in love with his girlfriend and decided to punish her for my mistakes. He’d been there when I stole the life from perfectly healthy and decent men, so it shouldn’t be a shock that I’d relieved his black soul from his diseased, evil existence. He flopped over to the side dramatically as I returned my attention to the woman who was my everything.

“I’m so fucking sorry, baby,” I whispered, holding her tight one last time.

A phone rang across the room, but I couldn’t move away from the woman in my arms. I cradled her head against my chest, begging God and all of the saints to grant me a miracle. I’d give my life for hers. I willed my strength into her body.

It didn’t work.

The phone rang again, this time with a commotion behind me. I snapped my head to the right, a predatory growl on my lips, daring whoever had come into the room to try to rip her from my arms. The sight of my cousin, standing just inside the door, caused rage to boil out of me.

I wouldn’t leave her for anything. Except revenge. Pressing my lips to her still warm forehead, I laid her back gently and faced the man I’d trusted above all others.

I stalked toward him, gun drawn. “Where the fuck were you?”

Mark narrowed his eyes at me but was smart enough to step back.

“I told you to watch her. I told you to protect her.”

My best friend raised his chin defiantly, as if the love of my life wasn’t lying behind me and growing cold. “I don’t take orders from you, kid. She wasn’t yours.”

The pain that hurtled through my body was unlike any I’d ever felt, burning a path from my mind to my stomach as realization dawned. He’d known. The fucker had known and hadn’t lifted a fucking finger to stop it.

Loss—not just from Gabby, but knowing the man I’d loved as a brother was now gone—mixed with the bitter taste of betrayal and swirled in my stomach. I could finally see the man Mark had become. I hated him. He may not have pulled the trigger, but he was just as responsible for Gabby’s death as Dustin.

I lifted my arm without aiming and unloaded the magazine into him.I sat up, gasping for air and clutching at the blanket that covered me. It was just a dream, I told myself. Just a dream. I moved quickly, throwing my legs over the side of the bed, leaning my elbows on my knees, and clutching my head. Just a dream.



I received this book in exchange for an honest review. 

Brutally honest in more than one way. Author Carina Adams has given us a glimpse into the life of a strong brave woman Gabriella. Brought into the likes of an Irish mob by falling for one of the Callaghan brothers. She didn't realize it was the wrong one until things were so out of control for her. 

Dustin was evil reincarnated and uses Gabby for his own benefit. Never truly loving her. Watching his little brother become protective of her was like a challenge to him a game... and like all games someone has to loose.

Reading this dark story full of twists and secrets had me in tears most of the time and finding myself cheering for Gabby as she held herself together to protect the ones she loved. 

Everyone need a friend sometimes and this is proof positive. I don't want to spoil it for you but I'm gonna drop a name. Declan Callaghan! His undeniable love for his women has him learning things that tare his heart into pieces. Let's just say he's the real man of this family. 

I absolutely loved every word and meaning behind this story! It's a cold hard fact that domestic violence is all around us... sometimes we can pretend we don't know why our friends, family, or coworkers have bruises or wear there makeup a bit heavy but in reality we all know someone who suffers in silence. Please reach out to them...you may be the only one who can.

Thanks again Carina Adams for opening some eyes!

5 stars from me as I'm wiping tears

I have to admit Almost Innocent didn't grab me from the start. I found myself scanning several chapters. About half way in I became captivated and couldn't stop. By the ending I was so caught up in the story and with recent personal events it hit me in the feels. Almost Innocent is not a book for all. It does contain triggers for some with domestic violence & rape. While there is not great detail of the rape, it is known. 3.75 Stars from Me. :)
