Just a bit of Complete...

“Firecracker, does this feel like I don’t desire you?” Marshall grinds his groin into my ass, letting me feel his thickness. The resistance I have been putting up falls away like a thin layer of clothing. Heat settles in the pit of my stomach and a dull ache forms between my thighs.“I’ve wanted you every day since I saw you almost ten years ago, Rachel,” Marshall whispers into my neck as he nips along the column making me shudder. “I’ve never stopped wanting you,” he continues, his voice coming out gruff due to my grinding down on his thick, pulsing length. “I was just waiting on you to realize you wanted me too, and to stop being so fucking difficult.” “I’m sorry,” I apologize, because I really am. So caught up in my insecurities and fear, that I almost ruined the best thing to ever happen to me. “You were never in danger of losing me, Rae,” he lets me know while he holds my face in his hands. “’Til death, baby. Only death will keep us apart; and even then…” My lips crash to his with nothing more to say between us. Our bodies long to communicate in the best way we know how. Our bodies long to connect. My skin buzzes with heightened arousal as our tongues touch, an electric current zapping through me. “If you leave me, this earth, I will find you, Rachel,” he threatens. “You can’t leave me. Whatever happens, tell me we’ll face it together; that we’ll get through it together.” How can I deny him that? He wants to partake of my joy and my sorrow. He wants to be there with me through whatever life throws at us and here I am: wanting to bail. “If you leave me, I will rampage through Hell to drag you back to me,” he asserts and I can’t help but chuckle lightly. “You assume I’d go to Hell?” I question. “Hell is reserved for evil people, I hear,” he states. “And evil would be leaving me on this Earth to let other women have their ways with me.” That causes me pause. Looking over my shoulder, I pin him with serious eyes as I tell him, “If I die and that happens, know that you will have no peace. I will haunt you until you off yourself.” Marshall only smiles against my neck before saying, “Ditto.”

My Review of Complete...

[Christina]

Amazon/Goodreads Rating: 4/4

In Patti's Imagination Rating: 8/8

 After waiting 7 years for his love to come back to him Marshall will not let anything or anyone take Rachel from him. Sometimes, though, there are complications that you can't control. Can they prove that love conquers all or will they be torn apart - permanently?
I fell in love with Marshall and Rachel while reading Complicated, and although this is marked as a standalone novella you really need to read the first book to understand their pasts. They are such strong characters and you can't help but root for them. As always when reading Ms. St. James' books i finished with a huge smile on my face.

Get to know Ghiselle St. James...

Ghiselle St. James is a Jamaican author who has a never-ending love for
written thoughts: poetry, song lyrics and non-fiction. She has been writing
erotic novels since she was 13 years old which made her popular with the
boys (hehe). Writing has been her outlet, as has singing, for most of her
life, and will continue to be.
I really hate talking about myself in the third person…
Having graduated in 2010 from the Jamaica Theological Seminary, with an
honors’ degree in Social Work, the writer in me seemed to reawaken and has
yet to go back to sleep.
I completed my first novel in January of 2013 and had never felt so
accomplished in my life. Since then I have published four books and have no
plans on stopping any time soon.
I write what’s in my heart as it’s hard to separate my heart from anything
I write. As a result, characters that are real to me often come out. I pray
my passion brings you as much joy as it has brought me.

REVIEW



[Christina]

Amazon/Goodreads Rating: 5/5
In Patti's Imagination Rating: 10/10

I have had the absolute joy of watching Gia Riley grow and transform as an author from her first book, Between the Pain and now I'm so proud as she releases her next book, Rock the Boat. No matter what variation of romance Gia chooses to write she has the ability to immerse me into her stories, whether it be about nurses, college students or discovering your first love as a teenager. Now she struck it big with a HOT rockstar, Easton Beck, and the insecure, broken woman who catches his eye.

They meet on a Perfect Match Cruise, only neither are truly looking for forever. Both have painful secrets and pasts they're hiding from but you can't run from cupid's arrow! This is a definite must read, but if you've read Ms. Riley's books before you should be prepared. She brought out a whole new level of steam and sensuality in this endeavor!

My husband loves this book and he didn't even have to read it!

Unlucky for some.

She was kind enough to leave something to remind me of her: thirteen thousand pounds worth of debt.

Thirteen; the day I lost my nuts.

Still, thirteen sucked... until it didn't.

SYNOPSIS


Amy Welton has a good life. Her mother and brother are the world to her, as is her best friend—and sister-by-choice—Bella. That’s how she finds herself in the midst of planning a party for two amazing people, and the help she receives comes in the form of one very sexy, dark, alpha male.

Rylee Kane isn’t the kind of guy you’d bring home to your mother. He’s the one who takes a woman to bed for a single purpose, and that ain’t love. But when he’s saddled with beautiful Amy, something happens to him. She’s a woman whom he’d never think of taking to bed, yet, he can’t come up with anything he’d rather do. The stakes rise, and his will is challenged.

He pisses her off all the time. She tests his nerves at every turn. When her feelings morph into something she swore not to let happen, will she stick through the danger to see the end? Or will they be over before they really begin?

“You’re not going back to him.”

“No. I shouldn’t have given you space. I meant it when I said I wasn’t leaving.”
“You don’t know Donnie, he’s-”
“I don’t give a shit who or what he is. We can protect you, Joy. I can protect you.” Tears welled in her eyes and her bottom lip quivered. It halted my tirade a fraction, but I needed to get this out in the open. It was time. We had to deal with it and move on, get away from this shit.
“This ends now.” Wide-eyed, she met my steely gaze. There was a flicker of fear, which she did nothing to hide. “No more Donnie and no more of the shit you keep putting into your body. I’ll help you, but you have to promise me no more of that shit.”
“Dawson, you know why-”
“Yeah, I do, and the guilt I carry around weighs me down, Joy.”

REVIEWS


We're doing another dual review, since neither Anita nor I could resist this book!
[Patti]
Amazon/Goodreads rating: 5/5
In Patti's Imagination rating: 10/10
"You look into my soul every day, Xanthe," I told her, taking one of her hands and bringing it to my lips. "It's yours. I think it always has been."

Nothing could summarize this book better than that. When we first meet Oliver Fairfax, he's a bit of a dick. Like Xanthe, I warred with whether he was perfect or the biggest asshole I'd ever met. But nothing sucks me into a story more than redemption and growth in a character, and Ollie truly turns everything around. Not only is he worthy of Xanthe, he elevates her, lifts her to emotional heights she had refused to climb before him. It's nothing short of another epic love story from Kelli Jean.

Lest  you think that's all there is to this story (trust me, that alone is enough), there is another element at work here. Xanthe, Rex, Jaime, Ricki, Ronen, Lilla, and Aunt Ellen are all involved in something much bigger than them. This story launches that larger picture mostly from the perspective of Ollie, which is to say, the reader knows very little for most of the course of the narrative. And I believe that's effective here, so I won't tell you the details, other than to say that there is more. Much more.

What I will say is this: you will laugh, you may cry, you will swoon, and you will love every moment. I wish I'd had more time to just sit and devour this book. Every damn thing kept jumping into my way when I wanted to read non-stop. I will be sure to leave space in my schedule to inhale the rest of this series. I know I'll want to do that, because we have just hit the tip of the iceberg here. In the meantime, I will suggest that you 1-click this as fast as your fingers will allow. Trust me, you'll be glad you did.

Amazon/Goodreads rating: 5/5
In Patti's Imagination rating: 10/10

This freaking book!! I'm not so articulate as Patti is so I'm gonna just fangirl all over Oliver while she says in nice words why he is the best book boyfriend I have read THIS YEAR!! 

I mean, besides having a new found love of beards, which Ollie of course has, he's incredible. He made mistakes but he realized them. Maybe sometimes it took him a while, or a few miles but he made amends. I liked him for it. And for his beard! Lol

Xanthe is insecure - secure - fighting woman. She is the most layered person I have ever met. She is strong, but sensitive. She is crazy, yet very sane. She's a great friend and simply an amazing person. She was a lot of fun to get to know. 

Kelli, you did an amazing job with this book. I enjoyed it very much and cannot wait to read more of your work. For a first book I have ever read from you, this is a hit. You got yourself another fan!


ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Born and raised in Miami, Kelli Jean traded the tropical heat for the arctic. Now she deals with twenty-four hour daylight in the summer, zero sunlight in the winter, and believes the Northern Lights make up for the mind-boggling amount of ice and snow she has to put up with for seven months out of the year.

She's surrounded by mountains and ocean and sheep, and claims her bizarre sense of humor is what keeps her sane. The insane don't know they're insane.

Kelli uses her imagination to create worlds she can escape to from the mundane tasks of everyday life, such as washing the damn dishes and vacuuming up Legos off the floor--and don't get her started on the mad amount of cat hair on the end of the couch. She gave up on that a long time ago. When the household goes to sleep at night, she writes down everything that happened in her head while doing such tedious chores. But she enjoys living in her own head, so that's pretty cool.

Technology terrifies her. She can barely turn on a computer, and was completely shocked when she'd actually written a book on one. To this day, she has no explanation for this baffling mystery. It took her three years to realize she can take screen shots of messages and pictures of bearded, tattooed men with her phone. Now that she's mastered this task, her phone is slowly dying, and she's nervous that she's going to have to buy a new one and it will take her another three years to learn how to use it.
