Summary: HEART - BRAKINGLY SEXY
Comment: Like its predecessor I Love Bad Boys, I Brake for Bad Boys is the erotic contemporary romance anthology headlined by the favorite triumvirate of writers like Lori Foster, Janelle Denison and up-and coming ingenue Shannon McKenna. This book lives up to its reputation of being indulgently bad, heart-brakingly sexy and darkly dangerous.
Then why not a five-star review for their concerted effort? Of the three entries, Janelle Denison's story Something Wilde is discerningly the best because of her outstanding male protagonist Eric Wilde who gives room for freelance co-worker Jill Richardson to breathe, respects her opinion as to her partnership with the firm rather than corner her. That - in my view is a subtler display of passion and being sexy; their erotic coupling are fuelled by wild fantasy of reckless blindfold and pearls - yet never on par with the intensity of the romantic moment when Jill risks it all for love.
That is not to say Shannon McKenna or Lori Foster isn't good. In fact Ms. McKenna's sexual scenes are exquisitely burning with raw emotions between massage therapist Tess Langley and rich businessman Jonah Markham but sometimes the marathon becomes overly gratituous. Their attraction is fierce and intense - enough to make Tess cower because she fears Jonah will conform her to a mold like her parents and her ex. The initial manhandling by Jonah may be disapproved by some romance fans but as the story unfolds, Ms. McKenna softens him into a kind of protectiveness rather than obsession that makes him endearing.
Lori Foster's hero Ian Conrad is equally intrusive when he sets his sight on conquering the sassy and fiercely independent Erica Lee albeit of a lesser intensity than Jonah. Fans will rejoice with the comeback of her past characters in a reunion - Asia, Becky, Cameron and George. Yet while huge as he is, ahem, physically speaking and distant, Erica is charmed by the honorable and virile Ian. The sex scenes are sparkling yet ironically less bold considering the bondage and spanking themes in her last efforts and Erica is the most outspoken of the three.
Who will ever complain a book with loads of sensual pleasures? However when it comes to this insanely talented three, I was looking for a little bit extra - and Ms. Denison's story clinched my thumbs-up. Her hero just literally stopped my heart with his graciousness. Who ever says manners don't count?

Summary: Something to Keep You Warm on Cold Nights...
Comment: This anthology is the second one of the 'Bad Boy' series of stories that Brava is releasing which are hot and sensual romance short stories. Like the first one (I LOVE BAD BOYS), this one features Lori Foster and Janelle Denison, and adds rising star Shannon McKenna. Like the first one, this one was hard to put down. It was great from page one to the end.
DRIVE ME WILD is the first one and is by Lori Foster, the hot star of Kensington/Brava Books. It is the last one of a series of stories featuring three girlfriends who had made a pact of asking out the first guy they spotted in the local porn shop shopping for wares that interested them. Ian Conrad had learned about the pact and wanted to be the one that Erica Lee chose. He was attracted to the standoffish and attractive Erica, but she was afraid of letting a man too close, because of situations from the past.
Ian doesn't know this, but is intent on breaking down her barriers. To achieve this, he agrees to be her sex slave and agrees to any demands she may make. Erica can't believe that she is attracted to the company electrician, but man, do the sparks ever fly. The scenes between the two just sizzle and the love scenes are sparkling hot.
What a fitting end to the Girlfriend Stories, as I enjoyed the whole series immensely.
SOMETHING WILDE by Janelle Denison is the first of a series of stories about the Wilde brothers. Eric Wilde is attracted to the comely Jill Richardson, with whom he is currently working on a project with. She is resistant to his advances, but he senses her attraction. He decides to act upon them while he can and embarks on a crusade to woo her. Keep ice close by'this one is hot. Another outstanding story by Janelle Denison.
TOUCH ME by Shannon McKenna is another hot, sensual and enjoyable story. It is about Tess Langley, a massage therapist, who is hired by one of her customers to provide services for a party he is throwing at a remote retreat. She learns upon her arrival that there is no party, that Jonah Markham wanted her alone so he can explore the sensual side of Tess. They both had an unsettled childhood, and must both overcome these before they realize that their attraction is love and not just lust. Of the three stories, this was darker, but still, I found it very good, and yes, very hot too.
If your idea of bliss on cold winter nights is to sit down with a book with sensuality that sizzles and scorches, then pick up I BRAKE FOR BAD BOYS. All three stories shined for me and make me look with great anticipation for the next book in the BAD BOYS series.
