Alessandra Torre 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?

I can’t tell you. Truly. I’d have to kill you. My husband is the only one who knows.

 Craziest Fan moment?

After a news article ran in our local paper, my next door neighbor showed up with a copy of one of my books. I signed it, listened to the 70 year old man describe his favorite sex scene, and have avoided him ever since. ;-)

Pick one!

Favorite book and/or author?

Gillian Flynn. I’d marry her if I could.

 

Import or Muscle car?

Muscle. Preferably a ’65 GTO. 

Favorite song and/or musician?

Anything Bob Marley.

White, Dark or Milk Chocolate?

Milk… definitely. The others could stop production and I wouldn’t even notice.

Sam or Dean Winchester?

Dean. I don’t like long hair unless your last name is Hemsworth.

 Commando, Boxers or Briefs?

Commando or Briefs. Boxers scream ‘unfuckable’ to me.

 Damon or Stephan Salvatore?

Both. It’s threesome time. I’ll let Damon take me first.

Wine or Mixed drink?

Mixed drink - I know NOTHING about Wine.

Coke or Pepsi?

Dr Pepper

 Biker boy or Rocker dude?

Biker if I HAVE to choose. But I’m not a huge fan of either. I like cowboys, men who get their hands dirty, and wealthy alpha males.

Do you believe in vampires?

No. Sorry TwiHards.

 If you could have a super power what power would you pick?

X-Ray Vision. I always envision men with small penises. I’d love to know who is packing heat.

What would you do with your super power if you had it?

Leave the house A LOT more.

Would you abuse your super power? How?

I’d have loose lips when it came to sharing the good stuff. But would never rat out a small package.

 Enough foreplay, let’s get it on!

Tell us about your 1^st time!

17 seconds long. I was 19. And I think, even with that short length of time, I faked an orgasm. *sad face* He was an asshole. Really not worth me waiting so freaking long.

Screamer, moaner or silent?

Moaner during oral, screamer during doggie, silent when the orgasm is really really strong.

 Whips or chains?

Neither. I like a leash and collar when I’m feeling frisky.

 What is your favorite alcoholic beverage?

Water Mocassin. It is delicious and sound wicked when you order it.

 Do you ever leave home without panties on?

Only if I want to drive my husband nuts.

 Have you ever had sex while at work (any job)? If so, where?

Hmmm. I work from home so that’s hard. I’d have to say – knowing where the question is coming from - no.

What is the strangest place you ever had sex?

In a vehicle, during a carwash.

 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?

President of the United States. Which narrows down my sexual opportunities greatly. 

Does size matter?

Yes. Over 7 inches, girth is preferable to length, IMO

Do you or have you ever had a “cop” fantasy?

I’ll have any fantasy out there, as long as the guy is alpha as fuck and delicious.

 Do you or have you ever had a “Delivery Guy” or “Service Man” fantasy?

Well yes.. I wrote a book about one (The Girl in 6E).

 If you were on a bus and got a glimpse up a pantiless girl’s skirt would you keep looking?

No. I couldn’t. I’d have second-hand embarrassment too bad.

What is the strangest sexual experience you’ve had?

On the roof of a Suburban. Don’t ask. Even now, me and my husband are like “What were we thinking?”

 Funniest sexual experience you've ever had?

My son wandered in the bedroom mid-romp. We threw the blanket over our bodies and had to answer his detailed list of questions before he finally got bored and wandered away.

 Most embarrassing sexual experience?

Embarrassing? Haven’t had one yet. Guess I need to do it more.

 Dominant or Submissive?

I try and be dominant, but I have no chance against an alpha male.

 A fantasy you haven't fulfilled yet?

Orgy.

 Your stand on sex toys?

Great as a compliment, nothing beats the real thing.

 Siiiigh, that was fantastic…how about some pillow talk?

What would you do if you could be a guy for a day?

Visit lots of gym locker rooms.

 How would you describe yourself so that someone could pick you out?

Bundled up girl with Dr Pepper and a laptop in hand.

 What's the last thought in your head that involved someone you like?

I wonder what perfume she’s wearing?

 What is a question you want me to ask you?

When does the sequel to Blindfolded Innocence release?

--Great question! February 25^th!

 What is a question you refuse to answer?

Your first one. ;-)

Any tats or piercings? If so, where?

One tattoo, in a place that doesn’t show when I wear a bikini. Had a belly button ring but took it out because I was no longer twelve.

Biggest turn on?

Confidence and sexual prowess

Biggest turn off?

disrespect

Pet peeve?

People who crack their knuckles

So tell us something nobody knows about you?

I can’t listen to people brush their teeth. It drives me nuts.

 What did you think while reading these questions?

That I might be sharing WAY too much.

 Thank you for answering my naughty questions. Was it as good for you as it was for me?

Absolutely!

 Did you have anything else you’d like to say before we go?

Give my books a try. And I apologize in advance if I offend you. ;-)

Blurb for Fake (The Nicki Sosebee Series, #9)

Jade C. Jamison

Nicki has come to realize that she can’t fix everything wrong with the world, at least not by confronting the bad guys head on, so she intends to educate people by tackling one small problem at a time.  Now, there’s a woman on city council who’s growing a little too big for her britches and stirring up trouble in Winchester, dividing citizens into two clear sides—her side and the other—and Nicki plans to expose her for what she is.  In the meantime, Nicki hurts Sean and risks losing him for good.

Nicki Sosebee is a strong woman who's not afraid to go after what she wants, whether it's a man or a story. She's tough and her mouth shows it. She's a free spirit and feels no need to apologize for who she is or what she believes in. Fake is #9 in the Nicki Sosebee series.

Much Love

Kayla the Bibliophile Blog Tour Stop: Qwen Salsbury's The Plan

 

 

Let’s start with a little foreplay…

 

What would you say is the most embarrassing thing you have done or had done to you?

Wow. You don’t pull any punches, do you? lol

Okay, the single most embarrassing thing I’ve ever done centers on something I did when working for a movie theater my freshman year of college. It is so embarrassing because it is so, so very stupid. I know better than this. Anyone knows better than this. I failed to get my very polyester (think band uniform) pants dry. After driving to work with them hanging half out the window, they were still damp. I did relish the idea of wearing them like that for hours, so my sleep-deprived brain thought it was a great idea to throw them in the concession stand microwave.

I know. I know. I knew better. The zip sparked and a section of the pants became a molten, tar-like mess that stunk up the entire theater. So pungent, popcorn sales plummeted that day.

When I realized what I’d done, I was so embarrassed my knees went out from under me in the middle of the lobby.

 

Craziest Fan moment?

Me being a fan? I nearly hyperventilated sitting in the front row at a fan convention one time. I plead the fifth for what might happen if I ever meet the boys from Supernatural.

 

Pick one!

 

Favorite book and/or author?

The Outsiders by SE Hinton

 

 

Import or Muscle car?

Muscle. Think 67 Mustang, Impala, etc

Favorite song and/or musician?

Barely Breathing by Duncan Shiek holds a special place in my heart

White, Dark or Milk Chocolate?

Milk

 

Sam or Dean Winchester?

Both!

Actually, I think Dean is one of the most interesting characters in television history.

 But, I’d climb Sam like a mountain.

 

Commando, Boxers or Briefs?

Briefs

 

Damon or Stephan Salvatore?

Damon. (But, I’d take Alaric Saltzman over either brother)

Wine or Mixed drink?

Usually mixed.

 

Coke or Pepsi?

COKE

 

Biker boy or Rocker dude?

Biker

Do you believe in vampires?

Alas, no

 

If you could have a super power what power would you pick?

The ability to heal others

What would you do with your super power if you had it?

Heal others. Not heal assholes.

Would you abuse your super power? How?

See above. I’m not that benevolent.

Enough foreplay, let’s get it on!

 

Tell us about your 1st time!

It was to “Comfortably Numb”

If that doesn’t tell you enough, he cried afterward because it was about 15 seconds long.

Screamer, moaner or silent?

Talker

Whips or chains?

Dip

What is your favorite alcoholic beverage?

Amaretto sour

Do you ever leave home without panties on?

Yup

Have you ever had sex while at work (any job)? If so, where?

Nope

What is the strangest place you ever had sex?

Elevator in a shopping mall

 

 

What turns you on more, reading a sexual story, watching a porn or listening to sex?

Hearing

What profession do you find the most arousing sexually?

Chef

Does size matter?

Duh

 

If you were on a bus and got a glimpse up a pantiless girl’s skirt would you keep looking?

 Like a car wreck, for sure

What is the strangest sexual experience you’ve had?

I was making out in a car with a guy I’d dated a few times. He whipped it out for the first time and it hit the steering wheel. I said some version of “hell no” and that was that. So, I’m not sure if it was strange because he was gigantic or because I practically ran in terror.

 

Funniest sexual experience you've ever had?

Perhaps the one above.

Most embarrassing sexual experience?

The footboard of my bed fell off while mid-foreplay with the hottest guy I ever landed.

Dominant or Submissive?

I’m one but I’d prefer to be the other

A fantasy you haven't fulfilled yet?

Hammock sex

 

Your stand on sex toys?

Some are fun, some are pointless

 

Siiiigh, that was fantastic…how about some pillow talk?

 

What would you do if you could be a guy for a day?

Write my name in the snow

How would you describe yourself so that someone could pick you out?

The hottest chubby chick in the area

What's the last thought in your head that involved someone you like?

If you mean a friend, then it is that I screwed up the dedication in The Plan and left off someone who really and truly deserved to be there. I feel like real jerk.

What is a question you want me to ask you?

Borrowing from this list, I love to hear embarrassing sex stories.

 

What is a question you refuse to answer?

Um, maybe something that would compromise my kids’ safety. Other than that, I’m an open book. I think.

 

Any tats or piercings? If so, where?

Just my ears, the standard double piercing.

 

Biggest turn on?

A man who can really dance

Biggest turn off?

A man who only thinks he can dance.

Pet peeve?

Asking me what I want to do and then not doing it.

Also, dishes sitting in the sink.

So tell us something nobody knows about you?

Nobody? I guess that I have the tv on if I’m alone just because being someplace silent tends to freak me out.

What did you think while reading these questions?

That I write far more interesting sex than I have actually had. And that Sam Winchester needs to change that. Oh, and that this is probably littered with typos that I will not catch even after multiple proof readings. I am notorious for typos. My facebook posts are like word jumble puzzles.

Thank you for answering my naughty questions. Was it as good for you as it was for me?

lol

Did you have anything else you’d like to say before we go?

Thank you for the grilling!

Sassy Sara's Review of The Plan by Qwen Salsbury

 

Emma Baker is infatuated with her boss, Alaric Cannon.  
He has no idea that she exists because he is too busy firing his assistants to have time for such things. That's okay though, because she has a plan.  

I love the way this book is written.  In parts it seems like it could be a screenplay manuscript because there is so much attention to detail, and at other times, you feel like you are reading Emma's most secret desires that are locked safely in her diary.  The characters were wonderful  You felt the torment and anguish that Emma was going through while trying to hide her true feelings for a man that as an employee, she has come to fear.  The attraction is there from the beginning, but it's that on-the-edge-of-your-seat 'will they or won't they' anxiousness that keeps you from being able to put this book down.  

I started reading this (despite warnings from Kayla) at 9PM at night and was so ensnared with the drama of this book that I didn't get to sleep until after 1AM and after a few hours, went to work where I continued to read at every opportunity.  The story had a great flow and I really hope that there is more to this series, and soon!!

Sassy Sara Review of Blindfolded Innocence by Alessandra Torre

Well that's certainly an interesting way to start a book!!  Those were my thoughts after reading the prologue to The first book of the Innocence Series.  Alessandra takes us on a wild trip in this book, in more ways than one...

Pre-law student Julia Campbell is fresh off a failed engagement and happy with her new independence. Even if she weren't warned away from Brad at every turn, she'd know he was bad news. The last thing she needs is a man who could destroy her job prospects, not to mention her innocence. But before she knows it, the incorrigible charmer has her under his spell. His deviant tastes plunge her deep into a forbidden world of sexual exploration…but her heart may not survive the fall.

I think the real question is, how far are you willing to go to please the person you are dating?  Mind you, this isn't the man you are planning to marry or someone you have known for years and are just now coming yo understand his... kinks... This is someone for whom you work (technically) and someone who has a track record of not being faithful.  Do you risk getting your heart and head involved with a man who may not ever be more to you than a fun time?  

"You're too... you'll be too attached. I'm not a boyfriend, Julia."

"I don't want a damn boyfriend. I want your cock. Your cock right now. Put it in me and fuck me."  

I don't know HOW Alessandra does it but she was able to get my attention so thoroughly that I was dying for another fix of this odd couple.  Fortunately, there is a short story called The Diary of Brad DeLuca which was book 1.5 of the series that helped curb some of my appetite, but still!!  The wait is fortunately almost over as the release of Masked Innocence is February 25th.  I for one will be all over that book the second it whispers to my kindle.  

Such a great NA book that doesn't SEEM like a NA book because these characters were acting like ADULTS... It's so refreshing to have characters be young and 'carefree' but at the same time keep their heads attached.  

We will be reviewing Masked Innocence when it is released and will also include our Dare to Tell the Truth that Alessandra was kind enough to take.   I also recently found out that Alessandra will be at the Authors in the City signing that I will be attending on March 15th so I not only get to read her awesome stories, I get to meet her too!!!  So freaking excited!!

Stalk Alessandra!!
