[Review] Stripped Down by Emma Hart

What do you get when you mix a bottle of tequila, a single mom moonlighting as a stripper, and her sinfully sexy boss with an impulsive side?

Married. You get married.

Rich. Demanding. Hot. Crazy.That was Beckett Cruz in a nutshell.Not to mention wild, determined, dangerous, and forbidden.
He was my boss—and, after a drunken moment of insanity, my new husband.
An annulment was impossible... so was keeping him. I was taking my daughter and leaving, determined to give her a quieter life.
But Beckett Cruz had never taken no for an answer.
And he wasn't about to take mine.
What happens in Vegas... might just keep you there.

My Thoughts

Emma Hart removed me from the world while I was reading Stripped Down. While reading this book I didn't have any other thoughts other than Beckett, Cassie, and CiCi. It was amazing. I took a break form the real world and I couldn't have loved it more. She made me lose track of time. When a book does that to a reader you know that it is worth the read. I was especially captured right form the author's note at the beginning of the book. Thank you for including that Emma, a lot of us need reminders of that.

Beckett Cruz was my world during the time I submerged myself in this book. He took over my thoughts and my mind. The things he would say and do had me wanting to be Cassie. I just fell head over heals for Beck. He knows how to handle a woman. Just when you think he is getting too cocky he does something incredibly sweet and remarkable. Beckett Cruz is completely swoon worthy.

Cassie Cruz is a fierce and protective mother. Her character and personality fit perfectly in this book. Everything she did was to protect her daughter CiCi. And let me tell you, CiCi was awesome. I loved the part she played in this book. Emma Hart did amazing with her character. She didn't ignore her or maker her a small unimportant character. No, Emma included her in a big part of the story and it was a huge success. Because of this, the story was amazing. The things CiCi did and the way she was portrayed was exactly how kids are.

Stripped Bare was hot, sexy, and full of one Beckett Cruz that had you squirming for more. Beck is one of my favorite Hart Heroes. I really recommend this book. If you are looking for something hot and fun, then pick this book up. I can guarantee you will fall in love with it. It is more that what it seems to be with that sexy cover. Emma Hart always writes more to a story than you ever thought possible.

[Blog Tour, Review, & Giveaway] Booty Camp by Debra Anastasia

Booty Camp Dating Service is a wildly successful matchmaking company. The twist? Well, Wolf Saber --who inherited his gift-- is NEVER wrong when he matches people. It’s a gift passed down from his grandmother to his mother to him.

He’s sexy but stays behind the scenes, letting his buddy Chance do all the talking while he matches the clients at parties and events. Booty Camp Dating Service travels the country, and nine months after they leave the city there’s always a flurry of weddings and an accompanying baby boom. Booty Camp claims that clients will be 110% satisfied and they deliver on that promise every single time.

Except Wolf refuses to deliver on that guarantee for himself. He doesn’t find love until Hazel Lavender’s best friend pushes her through his front door. Now all he wants to do is make sure Hazel is 110% satisfied…in his bed. Which, ironically, would break the very rules Wolf demands of his employees--no dating clients, ever.

So instead, Wolf and Hazel fight. And kiss. And fight some more.

Will Wolf’s own rules make him the very first Booty Camp Happily Never After? (Book Camp Dating Service is a STAND ALONE!)

Review

**4 stars**

This was my first Debra Anastasia book and I'm glad I picked this. This book had me laughing out loud over some of the comedy.

Hazel, man did she crack me up. Signing for a dating service is something she did to humor her friend, she just didn't think it'd turn out how it did. I loved Hazel's character because she was funny, sweet, caring and a spit fire all at once. If she didn't something, you felt it. Praise to Hazel and her middle finger use!

Wolf, I felt somewhat bugged by him because of his stubbornness, but it also made me relate to him more because he was following rules and thinking objectively.

This book made me laugh, a lot, but at times it felt rushed. Overall, I'm giving this book a 4 star rating and the recommendation to read it id you're looking for something with humor.

Debra writes stories mostly in her pajamas with her hairy coworkers (dogs and a cat) to keep her company. Comedy, New Adult, Paranormal and Angst stories fill up her hard drive. A lot of her time is spent in the mom carpool lane. Debra has been married for 19 years to her favorite guy. She loves to laugh at her own farts in the morning and can be found on Facebook and Twitter being an idiot. She’ll hug you if she ever meets you and will most likely smell like cotton candy when she does it.

Wolf pulled her close so her chest was pressed into his and used his other hand to throw everything off his desk, including the light. It tossed interesting shadows around the room, but her magnificent face was highlighted, and that was exactly what he needed. He kissed her while laying her gently back on the desk.

“Hey.” Hazel stopped him, and he waited to see what she needed while panting a bit. “Don’t be gentle, for fuck’s sake.”

He stood up and looked at the wall for a second, running his hands down his face.

“Am I too much for you?” she asked.

He heard the hint of self-conscious seeping in. And that was criminal.

He crawled on top of the desk, caging her between his hands and knees.

“No. My problem is that I want a bed. And maybe some rope and lots of lube and good music and a few things that vibrate in a drawer close by. I want to make you come on my face so hard you think you’re dying and this”—he looked around his office—“is none of that.”

Hazel’s returning bravado made her eyes sparkle. “Surely a man that runs a dating service can be creative when he needs to be?”

His only reply to her dare was to put her nipple in his mouth while massaging between her legs with one hand. With the other he balanced above her perilously on the narrow desk. His knees were close to the edge, hemming her in.

She bucked against his hand and hissed at him. “Get to work, then.” She grabbed his face and pulled it back up to her mouth.
