Blurb:  Shane and Noah set out to seduce Kitty Velvet into selling them her family's struggling steel company at a deep discount. They plan a weekend of deception and sexual adventure to convince her to give up the business she spent her life keeping afloat. As they begin their passionate getaway, things don't go as planned. Instead of putting their rival out of business, they gain deeper feelings for the feisty blonde - and for each other. With their world upside down, Shane and Noah must now decide if business ambitions are worth losing a chance at something bigger than money, and more precious than owning a steel empire.

 Kitty has worked hard to keep Velvet Steel afloat, but changing technologies and the growth of their rivals have made the company's continued viability almost impossible. As she embarks on a erotic weekend to de-stress and regroup, she develops feelings for two strangers who turn out to be the very men who have made her life a living hell for the past year. But is saving her family business worth losing her only chance at love?

Publisher's Note: This book contains explicit sexual situations, graphic language, and material that some readers may find objectionable: anal play/intercourse, capture fantasy, male/male sexual practices, menage (m/m/f).

Review: A hot little erotic number, that does have a little bit of a plot. Before reading this, I suggest getting a big glass of Iced tea and a fan, because the sex is scorchting hot!

Despite their intentions in the begining, Shane and Noah soon realize that they need Kitty just as much as she needs them. All in all a happy-ever-after ending for everyone. I can't wait to read more of Suzanne's work!

Blurb:

Rose is skeptical when Lady Denville hires her to take care of some ghosts in her townhouse. She expects to find a nest of rats or leaky water pipes. Instead she finds two sexy spirits intent on fulfilling her every sexual desire. They introduce her to a whole new world of pleasure -- and a curse that may destroy them all. Lionel and Jonathan have been trapped in the townhouse for decades, waiting. When Rose walks in, they know that she is the one with the power to save them. The key to their freedom lies within reach, and both men must put aside their differences if they ever hope to break the curse that binds them to the townhouse. As the men set out to seduce Rose and gain their freedom, their sexual desire turns into something more. Now they must be honest with the woman they love, or stay imprisoned in the spirit world forever.

Publisher's Note: This book contains explicit sexual situations, graphic language, and material that some readers may find objectionable: anal play/intercourse, male/male sexual practices, menage.

Review: Whispers, by Suzanne Rock, is a quick, fun read. If you like your paranormal romance hot and full of ghosts, curses, and M/M, M/F, and M/M/F action then this is the book for you. Although, I did find some of the heroine’s thoughts to be redundant, especially when she was lamenting her relationship with her deceased husband I found the overall story engaging. I’d love to see the three main characters again, preferably in a novel length book where the author had room to flesh them out even more.

Desperate to escape her controlling family, Chloe Bradford scrambles up to the housetop of her Texas home on Christmas Eve. There she discovers a sexy stranger cloaked in shadow. He convinces her to shed her good-girl image and give into her most secret desires. The man's low, raspy voice tugs at her memory as much as it awakens her passion. Is he a Christmas miracle, or some figment of her imagination? When he tries to leave, she follows him, eager to learn his identity.

Zach can't stop thinking about Chloe, or their reunion on the roof. His wolf-half urges him to reveal his identity and claim her, but he doesn't dare. For both their sakes, he must remain in the shadows until he can control his inner beast's bursts of rage. After a decade of struggle he thought he could handle his curse, but Chloe's presence causes his control to slip. As the moon-rages become more frequent, he knows he's slipping toward the insanity that claims many of his kind. Only Chloe can save him, but he broke her heart over a decade ago. Her forgiveness would be the real Christmas miracle.

Review:

Top quality writer with a mediocre delivery on an intriguing idea. The premise if phenomenal, the writing descriptive, the characters and plot are ripe for exploration. The story is ready to be told. The problem is that it really isn’t told in this book. I get a small glimpse of Chloe and that she’s unhappy in the life wanted for her by her family. Zach had the life he wanted until it was ripped away on a night that changed everyone’s futures. Most of the threads in this plot line are unanswered. All we really know at the end is that Chloe and Zach want to be together and I was left with the impression they were ready to fight for each other…and whatever is out there…waiting in the next book to be told to the reader.
