K.E. Osborn Edition: Dare to Tell the Truth with Kayla the Bibliophile

Let’s start with a little foreplay…
What would you say is the most embarrassing thing you have done or had done to you?
Well that’s an easy one. I went on a 5 week holiday with my Mother and our friend Kim. Awesome you say? Well yes it was, until we got to a little place called Frans Joseph. We stayed in these cute little cabins. They had a paddock with horses right behind our cabin, so I decided I would go and have a little chat with the horses. I got to the fence and I put my hand on the railing and I felt something. I didn’t know what it was so I touched it again. Then I thought to myself “Oh I think the fence is electric,” so I touched it a third time just to make sure. Yes I got zapped three times by an electric fence. Lol.
Craziest Fan moment?
Well as my book is new I don’t have a lot of fans as of yet, but I will keep you informed :0)
Pick one!
Favorite book and/or author?
I know it sounds a little cheesy but I guess my favorite book would be FSOG as it pulled me back into loving books again. As for a favorite Author I have too many to mention.
Import or Muscle car?
Muscle all the way!
Favorite song and/or musician?
Anything by Bon Jovi.
White, Dark or Milk Chocolate?
Dark, but I’m not really a huge fan of chocolate. I have to be in the mood to enjoy it.
Sam or Dean Winchester?
Is there actually a choice here? It has to be Dean. *Wipes drool from her chin*
Commando, Boxers or Briefs?
Hmmm, tough one, I’m going to say either Boxers or Commando.
Damon or Stephan Salvatore?
Again there’s no choice here, lol. Has to be Damon *Again, wipes drool from her chin*

Wine please :0)
 Coke or Pepsi?
Coke, but I like Pepsi as well.
Biker boy or Rocker dude?
Ohhh tough one, but I think I’m leaning towards the Rocker.
Do you believe in vampires?
Lol, only sexy ones like Damon (I wish he was real)
If you could have a super power what power would you pick?
To be able to do anything I could think of. Eg if I want a glass of water, I would just think that and it would appear.
What would you do with your super power if you had it?
Probably wish for lots of money lol. Oh and world peace (that’s what I’m supposed to say right?)
Would you abuse your super power? How?
Lol. Yes, if you have a super power you have to do spoil yourself every now and then right? And again probably by giving myself an endless supply of money lol.
Enough foreplay, let’s get it on!
Tell us about your 1st time!
Oh God my Mother will be reading this! Well it was on Australia Day with my then boyfriend (We will call him, B) So B and I had just been to the fireworks spectacular and we came home to my parents house. We waited till my parents were asleep and things got hot and heavy and then he asked if I wanted to. It was my first time and B’s as well. It was kind of awkward, but I’m glad I got to share the experience with him. Out of all my boyfriends, I’m glad B was my first.
Screamer, moaner or silent?
Lol. Sorry Mum. Depends on how good they are ;0)
Whips or chains?
If I had to choose I would pick chains.

Do you ever leave home without panties on?
Lol. No.
Have you ever had sex while at work (any job)? If so, where?
No.
What is the strangest place you ever had sex?
Cinema. OMG I can’t believe I admitted that!
What turns you on more, reading a sexual story, watching a porn or listening to sex?
Reading.
What profession do you find the most arousing sexually?
Any man in a uniform ;0)
Does size matter?
I think size is always good if it’s bigger, but I’m sure if you’re on the smaller side, if you know how to use it well, then no size doesn’t matter.
Do you or have you ever had a “cop” fantasy?
Lol. No but maybe I should.
Do you or have you ever had a “Delivery Guy” or “Service Man” fantasy?
Lol. Again no, but that’s a good idea!
If you were on a bus and got a glimpse up a pantiless girl’s skirt would you keep looking?
Lol. No not my thing.
What is the strangest sexual experience you’ve had?
I was just about to get it on with my then boyfriend (We will call him, A) and we were both completely naked around 7 a.m. and my Mother walked in to wake us up for work. Awkward! 
Funniest sexual experience you've ever had?
This one goes to B. We were making out and then he sneezed in my face!
Most embarrassing sexual experience?
Refer to above with A.
Dominant or Submissive?
Submissive

Biggest turn on?
Sexy smile and bulging arms.
Biggest turn off?
Stinky feet
Pet peeve?
Running late.
So tell us something nobody knows about you?
As a young child I used to pretend I had a boyfriend called Aaron, and at night I would cuddle my pillow pretending it was him.
What did you think while reading these questions?
OMG! Poor Mum.
Thank you for answering my naughty questions. Was it as good for you as it was for me?
Oh even better lol.

Blog Tour Stop: Very Bad Things by Ilsa Madden-Mills


If you follow me, I assume the genres you like are either Paranormal Romance, Erotica, NA, etc...stuff with lots of raunch in it. So, let me start out by saying, we're gonna have to grade Very Bad Things on a different scale than what I'd normally use. I say this because this book would probably be better for a younger crowd. Don't get me wrong, if you are a person who doesn't need a lot of nooky in their book to enjoy it, then by all means...the STORY itself was fantastic. The suspense and anxiety it gave me were CRAZY. You should see some of the messages I sent to Ilsa, literally yelling at her because this book made me absolutely bonkers.

But if you were to go into reading this book KNOWING that there isnt much actual sex in it, I think you will enjoy it more. I always refer to this as the 'Consequences Effect'. CJ Roberts wrote a fantastic review of the book Consequences by Aleatha Romig. She forewarned everyone who was hoping that Consequences would be like her Captive in the Dark, that the book hinted at the "love scenes" but didn't actually explicitly describe the acts. After reading her review, I went into reading Consequences for the story itself, knowing that it wouldnt be like that, and so I was able to enjoy it instead of just waiting for the raunch to happen.

Back to VBT. Go into this book for the great story itself. I'm telling you now, the humpage is very light. The build up, however, is INSANE. Our main guy has balls of STEEL. For him to be able to hold out and deny her the way he does, over and over and over...I've never met a man that would be able to do that. Because Nora is HOT. Her genuine good-heartedness, mixed with her trying desperately to be bad, is a lethal combination that no man would be able to resist.

The characters are wonderfully developed. You love some (and can't wait to read about them more in the upcoming books) and others you seriously wish were real so you could kick their ass.

I don't read YA, but I would definitely squeeze in the sequels in this series. I want to see what happens to Nora's best friend, and Leo's brother!

Description:

Born into a life of privilege and secrets, Nora Blakely has everything any nineteen-year-old girl could desire. She’s an accomplished pianist, a Texas beauty queen, and on her way to Princeton after high school. She’s perfect…

Leaving behind her million-dollar mansion and Jimmy Choos, she becomes a girl hell-bent on pushing the limits with alcohol, drugs, and meaningless sex.

Then she meets her soulmate. But he doesn’t want her.

When it comes to girls, twenty-five-year-old Leo Tate has one rule: never fall in love. His gym and his brother are all he cares about...until he meets Nora. He resists the pull of their attraction, hung up on their six year age difference.

As they struggle to stay away from each other, secrets will be revealed, tempers will flare, and hearts will be broken.

Welcome to Briarcrest Academy…where sometimes, the best things in life are Very Bad Things.

Review of Lola Stark's Tattered Love


 
4.5 Star Review of Tattered Love by Lola Stark

I have gotten so lucky lately in the books I’ve read. I can’t remember the last time I went on a streak of all 4 & 5 star books. This one, though…wow. Have you ever read a book and just saw yourself in every single aspect of it? Not simple things like, “Oh! She and I have the same color hair!” No, I’m talking about to the point where you want to ask the author, “Ummmm, have you been hiding in my bushes?” Which is exactly what I asked Lola Stark every few pages while I was reading Tattered Love. 

Book Description:

When ex-Special Ops bad-ass Mace walks into Needle's Kiss tattoo parlor, he never expected to find the girl who would turn his life upside down.
Hard as nails Scarlett has been unlucky in love: she’s been burnt, chewed up and spat out. Reluctant to have another relationship, can she keep her wits about her when hot-as-sin Mace walks into her tattoo parlor? Or will he break her down and leave his mark within her ink?
What starts out as a little fun, turns into something so much more.
Can Scarlett look beyond Mace's devastating past or will his demons come back to haunt them both?
Content warning: contains steamy, anywhere-goes sex, an alcohol induced embarrassing night out and two headstrong lovers taken on a whirlwind of crazy.

This book provokes every single emotion a person can go through. The excruciating lows that make you Kim K Ugly Cry…we’re talking red puffy faced with snot…just…everywhere because you don’t want to move away from your kindle long enough to get actual tissues--- to the incredible highs of laughing so hard your belly hurts.

I personally identified with the story because I felt like I was reading about my home. I’m from Fayetteville, NC, which is the town next to Ft Bragg. It’s known for the ridiculous amount of tattoo shops in such a small city, I guess we thought “So many soldiers to tattoo, so little time…” lol! Anywho, the beginning of the story takes place in Scarlett’s tattoo shop and it so detailed, so descriptive, that in your head you can hear the tattoo guns, smell the disinfectant, see all the bright colors of the tattoo posters on the walls…I have 11 tattoos and reading made my addiction flare up!

This is Lola Stark’s first book, but you would never know it.  The pace of the book flows nicely; you aren’t bored at any time. There’s the perfect amount of sex…just when it seems like they might be having an unrealistic amount of nooky, Lola cleverly hints at it, then moves along with the story. Scarlett is a really likable chick, very important to me when reading a romance; it’s not all about the dude for me. But if it WAS all up to the dude for me to like a story…Mace would have definitely done it. Mace…le sigh. If he was a real guy, I would find him, and he would be mine. Scarlett be damned! He was my perfect man, described just like my husband (told you I asked her if she stalked me) dark good looks, tatted up, domineering and bossy. Ugh! Totally lickable.

But, like I told Lola, Tattered Love got a 4.5 instead of a 5 because she made me ugly cry. I don’t like to cry…bitch. But seriously. Go buy this book…like now.
