He hated this lying, or more, not telling his wife the whole truth of the situation. Right now he felt like a first rate clod.

Seven Nights in a Rogue's Bed


Desperate to save her sister's life, Sidonie Forsythe has agreed to submit herself to a terrible fate: Beyond the foreboding walls of Castle Craven, a notorious, hideously scarred scoundrel will take her virtue over the course of seven sinful nights. Yet instead of a monster, she encounters a man like no other. And during this week, she comes to care for Jonas Merrick in ways that defy all logic-even as a dark secret she carries threatens them both.

Ruthless loner Jonas knows exactly who he is. Should he forget, even for a moment, the curse he bears, a mere glance in the mirror serves as an agonizing reminder. So when the lovely Sidonie turns up on his doorstep, her seduction is an even more delicious prospect than he originally planned. But the hardened outcast is soon moved by her innocent beauty, sharp wit, and surprising courage. Now as dangerous enemies gather at the gate to destroy them, can their new, fragile love survive?

Wow, Campbell really knows how to pack an emotional punch. Throughout most of the book I felt as though I was living the characters life and I loved it. The love scenes were so emotional with so many components thrown in, making the characters join body and soul.

Campbell is a particular author with a writing style that just wont appeal to everyone especially when she makes the hero out to be an absolute ass, however that is what she does best. I love Campbell's bad ass hero's.

For Desire Alone

A mistress should never be foolish enough to fall in love with her protector, nor trust him with her financial future. Mariah Desmond did both, and now her dearly departed protector has left her with nothing. Forced to seek another protector, she's determined that this time, she'll lead with her survival instinct—not her heart. But when she attends one of Vivien Manning's infamous parties, the familiar face of her late lover's best friend throws her for a loop. A painful past taught John Rycroft that he's not fit to be anyone's knight in shining armor. His soft spot—make that a hard spot—for Mariah is precisely why he's kept his distance. Yet the sight of her flirting with a bevy of men vying to become her next lover makes something inside him snap. As John hauls her bodily away from her suitors, Mariah's indignation melts away in the heat of the sizzling sexual chemistry. She quickly finds it isn't easy to navigate John's stormy emotional waters. Especially when his abusive father's quest to get his son back under his thumb puts her life in danger.

I enjoyed this second instalment to the 'Mistress Matchmaker' series by Jess Michaels. Definitely a standalone which is great for those whom haven't read the first book. I was actually surprised that the blurb pretty much tells you all you need to know about this book. I liked both John and Mariah with great character development. I liked it that although Mariah is a courtesan, she is still quite naive when it comes to relationships and love, somehow giving her a touch of vulnerability. The sex scenes suited the story to a-T.

Emma almost hated it when Alyssa was right about something, but she was afraid her friend had nailed this one on the head. She was sure Jason's agenda had everything to do with her, and nothing to do with shoes.

She stopped pacing and looked at him. "What am I to you?"
"What are you talking about?"
Her voice bordered on tears. "It is a simple question. What am I to you? Am I your mistress? Am I your plaything? Am I your whore?"
