Synopsis

Some secrets won’t stay silent...

An evening out at the theatre for Lana and Blake ends prematurely with shocking news.

Frantic, the couple rush home to discover their worst fears. And Blake is forced to confront the realization that his new family is on a collision course with his past — caught in the crossfire of adversaries who won’t hesitate to hurt them.

Once again Lana shows the strength that underpins her character to keep her family together, but with Blake already weakened by the revelation of devastating secrets, will they be strong enough to face down such menacing adversaries?

Lana and Blake know that time is running out and difficult decisions must be made, ones that will irrevocably and forever alter their lives.

And that ultimately, Blake will be called upon to make the greatest sacrifice of all

(18+ due to mature themes and sexual content)






True Evil is Not Always in The Open For All Eyes to See 
Oh my SH*T! that was phenomenal Le Carre brings her A game to the table for this one. This is part 5 of an intense series that started with a desperate girl and a man who had it all except the most important thing. Lana and Blake's love has been through so much pain but through it all they have always maintained their passion. I'm a huge fan of this series its always bitter sweet coming to the conclusion of a these two's story. 

L-ost, Victoria was casted away her horrendous act has make Blake take action.

O-pen, Lana cannot get over how amazing Blake is their honeymoon is something she will never forget.

V-ictoria, the pain inflicted upon her can't hold a candle to what she has planned as her revenge. 


E-ncounter, visiting with her mother will be the beginning of what Victoria plans to set in motion.

S-uspicious, while away a visit to Sorab from Blake's mother will prompt them to find out more about why she is taking an interest.




S-uperior, Blake's mother will never accept Lana in his life after a humiliating display Lana knows never to try again.

A-lone, playing into Victoria's game she will acquire the pawn she needs to set things in motion that will alter everyones lives forever.

C-areful, not sure of what may happen Lana and Blake take extra security measures.


R-evelations, part of Victoria's plan has been executing crushing Blake and Lana is only the beginning. 

I-ncriminating, Blake knows who is behind his and Lana's torture he will do what it takes to restore their happiness.

F-ierce, Lana will not go down without a fight she is willing to give up everything in order to have what was taken from her back.

I-llusion, everything Blake knew to be true was false walking away is something he welcomes.

C-onfrontation, coming to terms with everything has been easier than expected. Blake will never be fully rid of his past he now knows where the power was hidden all these years.

E-ntrust, Lana saved Blake from the darkness he vows to keep Sorab safe and away from the evil that will always loom over their lives waiting for a chance to strike.


Omg so I've spoken before about Ms. Le Carre taking us through twists and turns, Love's Sacrifice is no different. So many shocking truths are revealed that they will have your jaw hitting the floor. I despise spoilers so I won't go into it just know that things aren't as they seem. The people we've met have motives that aren't revealed until this installment. The ending was perfect! There were a few shocking things that happened and evil's were dealt with accordingly. The most powerful of serpents makes a promise to Blake and he vows to make sure it never happens. Finally achieving the peace he has longed for will be the beginning of the rest of his and Lana's life. So I know this is the conclusion of Lana and Blake but the ending was left a bit open. Fast forward through time and I can totally see something being written about Sorab. This was a wonderful read I cannot recommend this series enough! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo!


My Fav’s

Lana & Blake
These two love each other fiercely there is nothing they wouldn’t do for each other. My heart broke for them when they were crushed by Victoria but they figured out a way to remain together through the pain and the finale was magnificent. This power couple will stay with me and the obstacles they've overcome. Lana & Blake have both suffered a great deal of loss in their lives seeing them together and the light they shine was epic!

My Rating
4.5 Honeymoon, Mother in Law, Tea, Servants, Brooch, Cell Phone, Opera, Test Results, Brother, Sister, Mother, Serpent, Always Watching, Limo, Good vs Evil Love Filled Stars! I'm so sad to see these characters go but their happiness was amazing to read about! I absolutely recommend it.

The Way I See It
Trying to gather the words…I’ll just throw out some feels then we’ll go from there, amazed, shocked, exhilarated…

Wow. Just. Bloody. Wow. 

I KNEW IT!! I don’t know how I knew but I just KNEW!! Seduce Me was killer!!! Tid bit about me, I’m a hopelessly, optimistic, romantic, skeptic!! Lol yea I know! Try living it y’all! I love Lana and Blake this is NO secret. Besotted was perfect for them so naturally when I heard Seduce Me was to be the conclusion of their story I got that immediate sense of Yay! and NO! You know that bittersweet feeling I’m talking about.  
#SayingByeToFavCharactersHurts

WELL…Then I read it was going to be told in JULIE’s POV?!! I was like… 

WHAT?! 

Wait…So I read it again…”yep that's what it said!”

Cue the nerves. Now, I am mentally slapping my face for EVER having a hint of doubt! Bravo Le Carre! Bravo! This was DARK, SEXUAL, & SENSUAL…ADULTS ONLY PLEASE!! I went through all of the emotions with this one. At the end there was an amazing surprise. There will be MORE! I cant wait.

S-
urprise, Julie never thought Lana considered her a friend, for so long all Julie has ever felt is envy and pain.
E-
vents, being a bridesmaid puts Julie quite close to Lana and little by little she will come to realize so many mistakes.
D-
estiny, though Julie has only ever wanted one man, things could never be so easy. She must battle through another to achieve her ultimate goal.
U-
nnoticed, it seems as though Julie has become something unremarkable until she looks into the eyes that will stop at nothing to captivate her soul.
C-
hallenge, so much time has been spent "practicing" finally faced with an opportunity, Julie will understand everything she has been doing and why.
E-
vade, Julie is presented as the muse whilst evil lurks by. What everyone see’s is dominance, leaving no doubt the power that radiates from Vann’s greatest ally.


M-
usic, through pain and raw honesty Julie bares her soul. So much time has gone by wasted, she refuses to give up. The magnetism and what its transformed into is too precious to give up.
E-
lation, a phone call, a warning, and a date. Lana and Julie have come along way. It seems as though they will continue to walk side by side the way it was meant to be so long ago.

Look, I know Its a bit vague but there is so much amazing-ness that goes down I don’t want to spoil it. This is a MUST READ for fans of the series GAH! Conspiracy Theorists Hold.The.Phone. There's a certain level of mystery, lore, truths, and theories all thrown into Seduce Me. It makes the read a bit darker and VERY VERY intriguing. Though it was told in Julie’s POV we still see our fav couple and experience their love through the pages. I cannot recommend this series enough it has been an amazing ride and I'm looking forward to what’s in store!


My Fav’s

Lana & Blake
These two exude love and though their presence isn't the main focus its still enough to showcase their essence.

Julie
Talk about character growth! I wasn't sure of her at first, upon meeting Julie I loathed her. Throughout the pages I came to understand her. Then something quite magical happened, I came to love her. In the beginning she was full of envy and hatred but when she started to open up a certain transformation befell her. Finding love had always been a quest of hers and I was happy that she was able to embrace what was in front of her.

Vann
Lets just say he is PERFECT! I fell pretty hard for him right away!

My Rating
4.5 Wedding, Doughnut, Best Man, Jack, Wine, Dance, Emperor, Date, Studio, Paintings, Dinner, Journal Questions, Gun Wound, Picture Removal, Requested Kiss, Unplanned Discovery, Gallery Event, Muse, Adam & Eve, Evil Soul, Fierce Protector, Seduction, Bared Souls, True Love Filled Stars!!

Author Interview

Thank you so much for being with us today we are huge fans and look foreword to getting to know you better!


1. How old were you when you first started writing and what or who is your muse or inspiration for writing? 
A) Too old. 
B) My muse is my dog.  
C) I have to keep him in the style he is accustomed to.
2.  Where is your favorite place to write? and how often do you write 
I write on my dining table, sometimes in bed and occasionally in the garden. How often? That totally depends on how close to my deadline I am.  If it is someway away then I can’t even be trusted to finish 1000 words a day, but as I get closer to the dreaded day I became a demon of industriousness.
3.  Do you have any information or any teasers you'd like to share with your fans?

☺ Thought you’d never ask:  

Something wakes me. He is home. I see the glow of the little moon-face lamp under Sorab’s door. Softly, I open the door and freeze in the doorway. Blake is standing by the cot staring at Sorab as he sleeps. His hands are gripping the cot so hard, his knuckles show white. He has opened a window and the night outside has become coal black. No stars. No moon. A soft breeze blows in. I feel it on the bare skin of my arms. Goosebumps scatter. The room is full of clinging shadows. My heart hitches. 
He whips his head around suddenly, and I am face to face with him. I see his eyes. For a moment it is as if he does not recognize me. I do not recognize him. It must be my imagination in overdrive but it is as if I have interrupted a powerful predator. His eyes burn through me, angry blue. 
‘I regret nothing I would do it all again in a heartbeat, if I had to,’ he whispers. The sound is fierce and heady with male dominance.





WHICH DO YOU PREFER?



Coffee or Tea?  Neither



Sweet or Sour?  SWEET…please



Mountains or Beach?  Hard one, but mountains



Bookstore or Library?  Library…I like librarians telling me off. ☺



Mac or PC?   Easy, Mac



SHORT ANSWER:


If you could visit anyplace in the world, where would you go?  Why?
Oh! Impossible to do. There are simply too many places that I haven’t been to and would love to go to.


List 5 things you would absolutely need during the zombie apocalypse? (no family or friends) 
  1. A book. I want to be reading when I am attacked by a zombie.
  2. Lipstick – Can have the zombies looking better than me.
  3. A truck load of chocolate bars.  During an apocalypse one would presume there is not longer any need to diet.
  4. At least one super sharp machete – obviously.
  5. A totally gorgeous man to wield the machete.


Eeeeeep!!
<3

Book Spotlight: Besotted (The Billionaire Banker #3) by Georgia Le Carre



Besotted

(The Billionaire Banker #3) 

by 

Georgia Le Carre
Expected Publication
April 29th 2014
Author Self pub 



Synopsis
In Forty 2 Days we cheered as we learned of Lana's opportunity for a second chance to put things right with our wounded hero, Blake. We read with joy at the news of baby Sorab's birth, and with tension in our bodies as the spirited Lana fought and finally overcame the might of Blake's powerful family to win the heart of the man she adored.
But Lana still needs answers to many burning questions?
The secrets are many and tangled? Will she get the answers she seeks?

Blake finally lays it on the line to Victoria, and declares his true love for Lana, but will that be the end of the matter?
Then there is the re-appearance of Marcus.
Can Lana keep her resolve and overcome all obstacles to claim her man forever?

(18+ due to mature themes and sexual content)






The Way I See It 
Okay I’m kind of a mess of tears right now. Besotted was so delightful it was a telling of Lana and Blake’s true love. The intensity of their passion and the pureness of their love emanates from the pages. I feel like Lana has been through so much pain it was nice to see her in absolute bliss. Not all is roses; she is met with confrontation and handles it very well. Blake is fiercely protective of his love. There is nothing this man would not do for his family. The conclusion is right around the corner I can’t wait to see what happens.

B-lake, not once in his life would he have imagined loving so fiercely and wanting to protect someone so strongly.

E-ngraved, Lana can no longer deny or doubt the feelings that are shared between these two. She would risk her life for his; he would destroy the world to keep her safe.

S-orab, though unplanned this little being has become everything that is good and light in a world of darkness. 


O-pportunity, Marcus will never approve of his brothers selection but he is envious all the same. Lana will take him down a notch and show him her strength.

T-ruth, Blake has never danced around any situation he must confront his past and make it known nothing will ever be the same.

T-urmoil, though every ones cards are out there is a menacing danger lurking. Lana feels the pressure of hatred but she will let the feeling pass for now.

E-mpire, though Blake must keep running things he will not let his professional life interfere with living madly in love. His little family has become everything to him and he will guard it with all his power.

D-estiny, when Blake kissed Lana for the first time he kissed her soul. There is nothing she would not do for Blake so agreeing to the rest of her life with him comes as second nature.

Aw this was super sweet though super short it was nice seeing Lana Blake and little Sorab. It felt as though this was the calm before the thundering storm. I’m desperately hoping for Lana and Blake to find what their hearts desire. I’m looking forward to meeting Blake’s favorite brother and hope we see more of him in the future. Ms. Le Carre has a way of pulling you into her words and Besotted is no different. The sexy scenes are beyond sexy with a pinch of deviant *winky, blushing face.* Blake and Lana will have you fanning your face; these two are absolutely perfect for each other. I have to be honest though, at the end of Besotted we are told that Seduce Me the conclusion of Blake and Lana’s story is told by Julie? I don’t know how I feel about that I love Lana’s voice it’s going to be hard to replace it. That’s all part of being a reader though; enjoying the twists and turns the author is willing to take you on. I’ve got my fingers crossed maybe there will be 2 pov’s? Oh well best to just jump right in right?


My Fav’s

Lana & Blake
These two love each other fiercely there is nothing they wouldn’t do. Getting to read about their love with minimal conflict was a treat. I’m looking forward to seeing this powerhouse couple in Seduce me. I hope they crush those against them once and for all.

My Rating
4.5 Funeral, Texan, Tea, Scotch, Ice, Dinner, Sapphires, Sorab, Trip, Confession, Hatred, Desperate Plotting, Plane, Fireworks, Pink, Destined Love Filled Stars! This has become a fav series of mine so I absolutely recommend it.

Excerpt

The knock on the Lanesborough Suite’s door is firm and unhesitant.  I glance at my watch.  Very punctual.  I like that.  I open the door and… My, my, she is a beauty: waist-length, straight blonde hair, gorgeous big eyes.  And scarlet lips.  Lana almost never colors her lips so red.  She is wearing a long, white coat belted at the waist and really, really high heels.  They remind me of the shoes Lana wore the first night I met her.
She is chewing gum, though.  I hate that.  She must watch too many movies about big-hearted hookers.  I put my hand out, palm outstretched.  For a moment she looks at me, clueless.  I raise my eyebrows and she hurriedly takes the gum out of her mouth and puts it into my hand.  Then she raises her own eyebrows and cheekily stretches her hand out.
‘Don’t you want to come in first?’ I ask, amused but not showing it.
‘Of course,’ she says and walks past me.  Her accent is odd.  She must be making it up as she goes along.
I close the door and watch her walk ahead of me.  She has a good walk.  I like a woman who can walk with grace.  She stops in front of the low table where there is a platter of fresh fruit and a bottle of champagne cooling in an ice bucket, then turns around to face me.  For a moment I am distracted by the picture she makes standing in the agreeably English decor of traditional prints and chintzes teamed with bold choices of acid greens and Schiaparelli pinks.
‘I’m sorry, what’s your name?’
‘Rumor.’
I smile.  The name suits her.  She looks like a rumor.  Couldn’t possibly be true.
‘Would you like a glass of champagne?’
She lifts one foot and lets it swing back.  It is impossibly erotic.  ‘I’d like to be paid first.’
I don’t react to the provocation.  ‘The money is by the lamp.’
She glances at the neat pile of money as she works the two buttons on her coat. The coat lands on the sofa behind her.  She is wearing a very short white dress…
