Uniforms & Handcuffs – what’s not to love?

Since I love Sylvia Day‘s books so much I just had to get these books and they didn’t disappoint!  There are 6 novella’s (each take an hour or two to read).  They are definitely Adult themed books!  I read the Men Out of Uniform one a few weeks ago and just finished the Hot in Handcuffs one yesterday.  This sure has been a FUN entry to write ;).

 

Men Out of Uniform: Three Novellas of Erotic Surrender by Maya BanksKarin Tabke and Sylvia Day

From the Back Cover:

“The hottest thing about a man in uniform is imagining him out of it… They may enforce the rules, but when men in uniform are off duty and under the covers, they’re experts at breaking them. In this searingly sexy anthology, popular authors Maya BanksSylvia Day, and Karin Tabke present men in uniform–unzipped… “

 

Soul Possession by Maya Banks

“In Maya Banks’s Soul Possession, Jessie spends a hot night with two sexy-as-sin detectives, only to be accused of murder the very next day. But when Jessie becomes the target of a serial killer, her two detectives will risk everything to have her back in their arms–and in their bed… “

This novella was an interesting start to the books.  I’d have to say that out of all 6 novella’s it’s probably the most intense…but I definitely imagined the guys on the covers as my two sexy-as-sin detectives…… :).

 

Taking the Heat by Sylvia Day

“It’s time for protected witness Layla Creed to come out of hiding and take the stand in Taking the Heat by Sylvia Day. Layla has only three days to reconnect with federal marshal Brian Simmons–and slake the white-hot lust that has simmered between them for years…”

I think this was the best novella in this book!  It kept me hooked and Sylvia Day showed her skills again!  The TV show Arrow is starting here in Melbourne after Easter and there have been ads on TV since before Christmas!  I cannot wait to watch it.  Stephen Amell is the lead character…… 🙂 but for now he’s my federal marshal Brian Simmons.

Wanted by Karin Tabke

“Karin Tabke’s Wanted follows the X-rated exploits of bad-boy cop Colin Daniels and the soon-to-be-ex-wife of a mob boss. He’s been hired to guard her body, but it drives him to distraction instead, putting his career–and his life–on the line…”

This novella was pretty good as well.  Even a few weeks after reading it I can still remember what happens which is always a good sign!  Ever since the TV show Las Vegas, I have loved Josh Duhamel!  He can be my cop Colin Daniels since he has that bad-boy vibe!

Hot in Handcuffs by Shayla BlackSylvia Day and Shiloh Walker

From the Back Cover:

“Three Novellas of Erotic Capture 
Allow yourself to imagine the man behind the dark sunglasses. Hear the purr of his zipper as he lowers it, then reaches for the shiny metal hanging from his black leather belt. It’s futile to resist arrest. Give yourself up to the fantasy. Besides, he thinks you’re so hot in handcuffs…”

 

 

Arresting Desire by Shayla Black 

“FBI Agent Jon Bocelli never stopped wanting beautiful professor Lucia DiStefano. She’s interested in taking her first lover, and he intends to be that man. When her past puts her life in danger, Jon risks everything to save her and prove this fling is forever.”

I was watching the new movie This Means War the other night and couldn’t stop smiling! I absolutely loved the movie and I could picture Chris Pine & Tom Hardy as the characters in this Hot in Handcuffs book!

I definitely thinking Tom Hardy is my ‘experienced’ FBI Agent Jon Bocelli!

 

On Fire by Sylvia Day 

“When Deputy Marshal Jared Cameron investigates a series of arson attacks in a seaside town, the biggest blast of heat comes from sexy fire inspector Darcy Michaels–until their scorching after-hours affair is compromised by a secret from Darcy’s past.”

This novella was great as well.  There was a mystery element to it and kept me interested and wanting to know how the mystery is solved!

 Chris Pine can be my Deputy marshal Jared Camereon any day!

 

The Unwilling by Shiloh Walker 

“Mica Greer and her former lover, ex-FBI agent Colby Mathis once shared an intimate past and a powerful psychic gift. Now, they’ve been reunited by a bizarre series of murders–and an electrifying passion that could put them both in jeopardy.”

This novella was interesting and it had a pyschic element to it, so it wasn’t quite as believable as the other ones but definitely didn’t disappoint either!

I have no idea who this last model is, but I had to laugh today when @YummyRose89 posted this photo on Twitter! It has to represent psychic Colby Mathis!

 

All in all all of these novella’s were fun reads by fantastic authors and I would highly recommend them if you are open minded and looking for some adult reading! I am giving them a rating of 4.5 stars!
