Will she ever be able to outrun her memories? Can he be her salvation?

“What the hell is so funny?” I lick up the column of her exposed throat.

“The look on your face.”

“Glad to amuse you, babe, but you won’t think it’s quite so funny when I punish you for your little stunt.”

“Whatever you say. It was innocent.”

“Innocent? You’re in a bar in a strange city, with some of the craziest girls in the world, looking like a fucking sex kitten, and you call that innocent?”

“You think I look like a sex kitten?” Her voice goes low.

“Absofuckinglutely. Hottest girl in this room. The hair, the body, the outfit... Every guy in here, with the exception of our friends, wants to fuck you. Lucky for me, that’s my job. And when I get you alone, that’s exactly what I’m going to do.”

Her eyes grow hazy with lust, and she licks her lower lip. “Can you tell me more about this punishment?”

I move her to a dark corner and pin her against the wall. “Stop looking at me like that, Ember. I’m not above fucking you against the bathroom wall.”

“Ummm, sounds like fun. What else.” She taunts me, and I grow hard against her pelvis.

“You like that? You want me to talk dirty and tell you I want to eat your fucking pussy until you beg for mercy for leaving me tonight? Make you come silently against my mouth, fingers, and dick while we’re in a house full of people?”

“Yes, I want that. I want you any and every way I can get you.”

Review: 

This book is book three of the Surrendering series. It can be read as a stand alone, however, I would definitely recommend reading the other books in the series because the characters are recurring and I think it would be more enjoyable to the reader to know them better. 

I loved the secondary characters in this book. Ember's Aunt Chloe is a total trip and I just wanted to hug her cousin, Cruz. Oh, and Cruz's boyfriend, Alex? Yeah, they are both yummy. They are gay, over protective, alpha male big brother figures to Ember and I loved them to death. I want them to be my big brothers so we can all watch chick flicks together and be snarky together.

Ember's childhood is heartbreaking and causes her to be very shy, withdrawn and insecure. Robbie, an ex-marine, helps bring her out of her shell and show her how to not be afraid to be herself. He's understanding about her insecurities while still being the typical alpha ex-military over-protective sexy male. The sexual attraction between these two is intense and the sex scenes are steamy hot!
 

Without giving too much away, there are other characters from Ember's past that show up whose ass I wanted to kick. Of course problems ensue and then I briefly wanted to kick Robbie's ass too at one point. There is a HEA though and no cliffhangers so definitely read this one, you won't regret it!

My review of Center Mass by Lani Lynn Vale

Rating: 5  Stars

Title: Center Mass

Author: Lani Lynn Vale

Publisher: Lani Lynn Vale

Genre:  Romance, Military,  Suspense

Luke Roberts came to the small lazy town of Kilgore, Texas with one thing on his mind: Forgetting. He wanted to forget why he left. Forget those emerald green eyes that haunted his dreams. And forget how it felt to have his heart ripped out of his chest by a woman who didn’t like the fact that he had a child. It was something he’d been doing a damn fine job of doing, too. Until Reese smashed through every one of his defenses, and made him feel again. 

Reese Doherty was just trying to do the best for her little girl. So she moved to the little boomtown nearly an hour from where she grew up to be the school nurse for Kilgore’s littlest people. That’s where she met him. The SWAT officer and the man that would change her life forever. The sexy man who liked to drive fast, and live life like it should be lived. He drove her crazy, and became something she could barely live without. 

But Luke was a hero. A man used to risking his life to make the world a safer place. Something Reese had to decide whether she could handle or not. Preferably before her and her daughter became too attached. 

Just when she’s ready to give him her whole heart, her world takes a huge hit, and everything she thought she knew wasn’t as it seemed. 

Luke wasn’t a quitter, though. Damn far from it, and he’d prove to her that he’d be there when the dust settled. Whether she wanted him to be or not. 

Review: Holy crap this has some of the funniest parts in it. The humor in this book literally had me laughing out loud.

The scene at the movie theater made me snort, I swear it was so funny! Why can't that happen in real life? I'd pay money to see that. (read it to find out what I'm talking about)

The laughs just keep coming! I sh*t you not, my stomach is starting to hurt from trying not to laugh out loud.

Never have I ever, don't judge me. Too true. Loved the coffee cup sayings, the t-shirts the quotes at the beginning of the chapters...those need to be shirts. I'd so buy them.

OH! I adored the story too! I literally read this book in hours and had me laughing, had a few tears in there too and the it was a hot read. I got to know a little bit about the guys that he works with and can't wait to read about them in the series.
