Christy's Review: 



   photo FA4A3DFE-4B6E-409F-8070-27D81FDF0B5C_zpsptdax001.png


I love royal romances and after reading 'The Sinful King' earlier this year, I knew I wanted more from this royal family. The Naughty Princess is a novella featuring King Elias's sister, Princess Pilar.

Pilar is a good girl and never gives her royal family any trouble, unlike one of her brothers. She keeps under the radar as much as she can and doesn't get into anything too exciting. Until she goes out with Benjamin Drake. Ben is someone she's crushed on for a while, as a famous footballer, he's always in the limelight.

Pilar and Benjamin go out a few times, and find that they really like each other. Not only that, but their chemistry is insane. It's hard, though. Pilar has a lot of expectations as a Princess and Ben tries very hard to keep his private life private, which is difficult if you're involved with a royal.

This short story packs quite the punch. I loved both Ben and Pilar and watching them navigate their feelings for each other. The Naughty Princess was a short and steamy story that held my attention from start to finish. I really hope we get a book about the final Prince, Aramis. I'm dying for that playboy's story!

LIVE! The Sinful King by Claire Contreras


If you had any ties to Marbella, it was impossible for you not to have heard the stories about Prince Elias and his debauchery. 

Every summer he arrived with his security detail and friends in tow and rented out a row of cottages near the water. 

Cottages that belonged to my family. 

Each of those summers, my parents sent me away – summer camp and later, boarding school. Anything to keep me away from the royals and their partying. 

I hadn’t been home in years, but when I finally come back for the summer, I see that not much has changed. Like all the summers I’d been gone, Prince Elias is back, but this time with an incognito security detail and no friends. 

This time, there is no partying, no noise, no crowds. No reason at all to even think he was there. 

I’m given strict orders not to talk to him, not to even look in his direction, but he makes this an impossible task. 

I may be doing everything in my power to stay away from him, but there is no one in the world who can say no to the future King of France.


The Sinful King is LIVE and FREE in Kindle Unlimited!

CHRISTY'S REVIEW: 
   photo FEF2D605-FE93-4EE4-9AB1-F09EEF458F1B_zpscez8bbzm.png
   
“You don’t have to be a king to change history.”
“No, I suppose not.” He smiled. “You can be a queen.”
The Sinful King is one of the best royal romances I've read recently! It was the perfect stand-alone romance and I devoured it.

Adeline and Prince Elias meet in an unconventional way. The prologue of this book threw me for a loop and I couldn't wait to find out more about these two. Fast forward years later and Adeline is getting away after a scandal when Prince Elias comes back into her life. There is a lot going on in Elias life as well. His father, the King, is sick and Elias is the heir. There is a lot of pressure on him and the only thing that makes him feel calm and alive is Addie.

This couple had so many obstacles to overcome. The fact that Elias is royalty and Addie is a commoner being the main one. I was so anxious to see how everything would turn out. They had such a profound connection and the most intense chemistry, I needed them to be together. I just wasn't sure how it would all work out.

This was an epic romance. It was beautifully written and I loved the characters and the prose. The Sinful King is an addictive read that's full of love, passion, angst, and steam. I loved this one and I hope Claire writes more from this world! I definitely want more of these royals.

“You don’t curtsy to me,” he said into my ear.
“Are you not my King?”
“Are you not my world?”

Blurb:
I'm naturally gifted on the field and between the sheets. With flashy cars and enough media attention to put the Royal Family to shame, I’m the definition of Most Eligible Bachelor.

I want her naked in my bed.
She thinks our worlds are too different.
All I want her to think about is screaming my name.
She says I’m bad news.
I have three weeks to prove her wrong.

Christy's 4.5 star review!

When I heard that Claire Contreras was writing a sports romance, I knew I had to get my hands on it. When I saw the cover, I was looking forward to reading it even more! The Player is different than her other books, but I was not disappointed in the least. Fun, engaging, sexy and sweet- this is a fantastic read!

Warren Silva is back in his home town of NYC for three weeks. He is a top football player in Manchester and this is the longest he’s been away from the sport in years. He has family things to take care of, then he expects to get on with his life overseas. What he doesn’t expect is to meet someone like Camila. The moment he lays eyes on her, he knows there is something about this woman. He’ll do whatever it takes to get her.

Camila is a strong and independent woman. She lives in Washington Heights and works in a field where she serves others. She’s a kind a giving person. When she meets War for the first time, she doesn’t know what to think. He’s insanely attractive, but anyone with eyes can see that. But that’s where it stops for her. They’re not in the same world.

Oh, my. You could seriously feel the attraction and sexual tension jumping off the pages between these two. I just knew when Camila gave into Warren, it would be explosive. And it certainly was. These two together are smoking hot!

Warren Silva. What can I say about this man? He is your typical professional athlete in many ways. He’s rich, a bit cocky, self assured and is used to getting what he wants. He also has a soft side. A side that doesn’t come out often, but is definitely there. Camila has a huge heart but she’s not a push over. She’s got a bit of snark to her. I adored her. She truly is a beautiful person and worthy of someone like Warren’s heart. Both of these characters know what is truly important in life and it’s not money or fame.

The Player is one of those books that I didn’t want to put down once I started. The writing is strong, the characters are endearing and the story is sexy as well as heartwarming. I enjoyed this story so much! 4.5 stars.

The Player Excerpt by Claire Contreras


Look what we have for you!
 An excerpt for The Player by Claire Contreras
Release Date: October 10th







SYNOPSIS:
I'm naturally gifted on the field and between the sheets. With flashy cars and enough media attention to put the Royal Family to shame, I’m the definition of Most Eligible Bachelor. 
 
I've never met a man who doesn't want to be me or a woman who doesn't want to tame me. Until I meet Camila. 
 
From the moment I lay eyes on her, I know I have to have her.
 
She wants to keep me at arm's length.
I want her naked in my bed.
 
She thinks our worlds are too different.
All I want her to think about is screaming my name.
 
She says I’m bad news.
I have three weeks to prove her wrong.



EXCERPT:

“Are you upset I crashed your friend-date?” he asked, his eyes searching mine.
     “Would it make a difference?”
     “No.” He sighed, running a hand through his hair. “Maybe. This is new territory for me, Camila.”
    “The stalking thing?” I asked, smiling at his flustered look.
    “That and . . .” he shook his head, moving close to me again, pressing me flat against the wall behind me, “this.”
     His free hand traveled down my spine, stopping on my ass, which he grabbed a handful of this time. My lips parted as I gasped, watching the way his eyes darkened. Our lips met at the same time, our tongues crashing in each other’s mouths in a wild escapade. I wrapped my arms around his neck, willing myself closer to him. My pelvis rocking against his very pronounced erection, my bare chest covered by only the thin layer of fabric brushing against the buttons of his hard muscled chest.
      “You’re killing me,” he whispered against my lips, taking hold of both sides of my face. “You’re fucking killing me and you don’t even know it.”
      The fire inside me spread through me, roaring through my veins with each touch, each drop of his lips on a different part of me, my shoulders, my neck, my collarbone. My stomach ached with the absolute need I felt for him.
     “I don’t want to want you this much,” I whispered when our lips broke apart again.   
      His eyes searched mine, his gaze softening. “But you do.”
      “But I do.”
       “And you can’t will the feeling away.”
        I shook my head, looking at him as if he was going to give me some kind of antidote for this. Whatever this was.
        “Neither can I,” he said, placing his forehead against mine. “Neither can I.”
