This is a box set made up of 5 full length novels and 1 novelette. I am so happy that this came as a complete set or I would have had to wait even longer then the seconds I had to. I am usually not into these stories but they sucked me in and I just couldn't stop reading.
Lexi had her heart broken by her high school love and has never gotten over it. Jude also had his heart broken by his high school love and has not gotten over it. After 8 years they finally find each other again and the sparks fly. The feels factor in this was high and I felt so bad for the both of them. You want them to figure out how much they love each other instead of push each other away. I found myself so mad at Jude and feeling so sorry for Lexi.
Blue and Jessie hate each other. You can feel the tension leap off the pages and you just know that the sex between these two is gonna be explosive and Skye Turner does not disappoint when it comes to the steamy scenes with these two.
Micah, Bradi and Eric have been friends forever and it was nice after hearing so much from them in book 1 and 2 to have their story. While I am usually not into the m/m sex scenes the way these were written it almost made me want to be a gay man.
Clove and Liam's story hits close to home for me. Clove loved the wrong man and ended up pregnant. Liam is her knight in shining armour, they just don't know it. It was refreshing to here about a man that was okay with being the man that took over when the other man is a total douche.
Dade and Melonie, you ever meet someone that you just can't get out of your head? Dade did just that and can not get this woman out of his head. Melonie just happens to be his baby sisters ob/gyn. I wanted these two to get together so much. Dade is always the strong one in the group and totally deserved to love and be loved and he found his match with Melonie.
Cruz has so many demons and I felt so sorry for him. I wanted to jump into the pages and just wrap my arms around him and never let go. Luckily he had Tifanie. He holds the weight of the world on his shoulders. He believes that he will turn into some demon and you feel so sorry for him. Cruz's story was actually my favorite and I would love to hear more from him.
I am so glad that I got this series and took the time to read them. The sex scenes were steamy without being vulgar and you find yourself wanting to be part of their lives. I can not wait to start on some more of Mrs.Turners novels.
Declan Farrell, earl of Dungannon and the famous highwayman known as “the Gypsy,” is about to have his heart stolen by the very woman he intends not to marry.
BACK COVER COPY:
STAND AND DELIVER
Declan Farrell, earl of Dungannon and the son of the duke of Arlington, is a nobleman of the highest order, dissolute and a thief. He is a drinker and a lover, and at night he is “the Gypsy,” a highwayman who prowls from the city of Boreas to Chappendale Forest.
And yet, his heart is true. Impelled by a tragic past, he steals from the rich and gives to the poor, offers hope to those who cannot fight their fate. So much was taken from him, which is why he gives. He himself is undeserving of love and happiness, but there are those who are worthy, like Lady Althea Standfield, daughter to the duke of Oxmoor. Independent and kind, beautiful and smart, she must be freed from the obligation of marrying him. His heart might be stolen by a woman of such fine form and finer character...but his heart is all that he has left, and it is perfectly protected.
She licked her lips—wondering what his would taste like. How the sculpted muscles that undulated beneath the wet shirt would feel against her palms. How tight those brawny arms would hold her.
His smile widened, became knowing and he began to slide his hand slowly up and down the handle of the pitchfork in a suggestive way.
Althea stumbled away from the window, turned then looked wildly about her.
She had to have him.
Declan Farrell.
She must have him whether he was willing or not.
If it was the last thing she ever did, she would claim that man as her own!

“I have such need for you, wench,” he said.
That was more than evident to her. He was close enough for her to feel the tip of his cock pressing against her body.
The laces undone, he pushed her nightdress over her shoulders and it fell from her arms, rippled down her body to pool at her feet. Before she could take another breath, he snaked his arms around her, put his hands to her rump and lifted her. She wrapped her legs around his waist, her arms around his neck and kissed him. He took three steps to her bed, turned and drew her down with him to the narrow mattress.
From their very first night together she had known he would always be a gentle—and thorough—lover. He always put her pleasure before his own and this night was no different. His hard body covered hers, his delicious weight pressing her into the covers, and he smoothly eased her thighs apart with his hips. His lips moved to her chin, her neck, the sensitive sweep of flesh between neck and shoulder and then he was gliding down her. The moment his mouth closed over her straining nipple, she arched toward him. His low chuckle vibrated against that turgid peak to send chills down her sides.

In her past lives she's been an Import Broker, a Communications Specialist, a US Navy Civilian Contractor, a Bartender/Waitress, and an actor at the Michigan Renaissance Festival.

From a young Ann has had a love affair with books would read everything she could get her hands on. As Ann grew older, and her hormones kicked in, she discovered bodice ripping Fabio-esque romance novels. They were great at first, but she soon grew tired of the endless stories with a big wonderful emotional buildup to really short and crappy sex. Never a big fan of purple prose, throbbing spears of fleshy pleasure and wet honey pots make her giggle, she sought out books that gave the sex scenes in the story just as much detail and plot as everything else-without using cringe worthy euphemisms. This led her to the wonderful world of Erotic Romance, and she's never looked back.
Now Ann spends her days trying to tune out cartoons playing in the background to get into her 'sexy space' and has accepted that her Muse has a severe case of ADD.
