ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 15, 2025

She never thought her high school crush would give her a second glance. He thought she was too sweet to be tainted by him. Until one night changes everything.

Mia
Moving back to Shine wasn’t my plan, but when I thought my grandmother needed me, I dropped everything to come home. That’s what I’ve always done—what’s always been expected of me.
What I didn’t expect was to run into the only boy I ever dreamed of in high school who grew up to be the most beautiful man I’d ever laid eyes on. A man who is now the Vice President of the Black Roses MC
The last thing I should do is get swept into the dangerous life that I steered clear from when I came back, but there’s no denying the fierce pull between us.
And there’s no telling where I’ll end up if I give in.

Knox
My job is to protect my club and my brothers. I don’t have time for the little librarian who runs circles through my mind.
But no matter how many times I tell myself she’s too good, too clean for someone like me, she finds a way to infiltrate the walls I erected years ago.
I should have stopped myself from tasting her, from claiming her, but one kiss changed everything.
Now, there’s a danger lurking, and it’s unlike anything we’ve seen before. A new enemy is at our doorstep. And this time, it’s my woman they’re after.

REVIEW:The next installment in the Black Roses MC; Knox by Kate Randall has arrived, and what a book it is. As always, I recommend reading the series in order to get the most out of it, but each book can be read as a standalone.

Mia and Knox will always have a special place in my heart, their story speaks to so many reads, regardless of gender. We all have hope that a past crush would see us for who we are and return those feelings somehow. With Mia and Knox, it leaves a little hope left for the rest of us, even if it only is a book.

Mia returns to her hometown in order to help her ailing grandmother, while it is not something she necessarily wants to do, she does what is expected of her, like always. Little does she know her hometown has more in store for her than just helping her Nan out. Her crush from high school, the one boy she has never really let go of, he’s just around the corner, and just as handsome as he was all those years ago.

Knox lives his life to protect his club, to protect his family. He get his hands dirtier than most and doesn’t mind it as long as it’s for the right reasons. Chaos is circling, but the only thing that seems to occupy his mind is a face from long ago. The innocent little library that has haunted his dreams, she’s back in Shine, back in his terrority. One taste and he is gone.

Holy moly! Knox might just take the top spot for MC hotties in the series, and that is saying something, Ozzy had me in a chokehold, but Knox…(fans myself) These two had some of the best chemistry in the series, with their shared history they weren’t strangers, but more like long lost lovers coming together again. Knox and Mia take the time to learn one another, truly learn one another, not the personality they show to the world, the real person behind the mask. They make such a strong connection to each other because of this, and that too leaves their spicy scenes to be top notch hot.

The story line is fast paced, easy to follow and the added suspense of danger adds just the right amount of tension to keep the reader engaged and eager for the next page. With the next book arriving in the summer, I can’t wait to see where Ms. Author takes us next.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date November 19, 2018

Kara needs fast cash to pay her ailing father’s gambling debts. Dealing blackjack at the Billionaire Club is her lucky break. Until a scorching hot one-night-stand with bad boy billionaire Cash Westbrook turns into a million-dollar bet. Cash agrees to pay her father’s debts…if Kara pretends to be his fiancée.

Kara agrees to Cash’s terms, but she doesn’t expect to find herself falling for him. And when it comes to love, all bets are off.

•••••••••

REVIEW: CASH is the fourth instalment in Cassia Leo’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAYERS erotic, romances series. This is billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley’s story line. CASH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalment is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kara and Cash) CASH follows the fake engagement and building relationship between billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley. Kara Langley is desperate for money to pay her father’s medical bills when the opportunity of a lifetime finds our heroine the new Black Jack dealer at a private billionaire’s club, a club where she will meet the man with whom she will fall in love. Enter billionaire playboy and manwh*re Cash Westbrook, a man with more than his share of media disasters. When Westbrook Oil deems Cash a threat to the stability of the board, in desperation Cash sets about to clean up his image starting with a ‘fake’ fiancé in the form of Kara Langley. What ensues is the building relationship and love between Kara and Cash, and the potential fall-out as Kara’s father’s past seeks redemption for sins of the past using Kara and the people she loves in their need for retribution and repayment.

Cash is desperate to make good on the promise to clean up his image in an effort to reclaim his seat on the board but desperation meant finding the first available woman willing to play along as his fake fiancé, a move that threatens his family and his life. Kara Langley struggles to pay the mounting bills for her father’s medical treatments but sins from the past threaten any semblance of peace when Kara is targeted, and her life becomes a bargaining chip in a dangerous game on the Las Vegas strip. When Cash offers Kara one-million dollars to play his fake fiancé, Kara hopes to stay one step ahead of those trying to destroy her life.

The relationship between Kara and Cash is one of immediate attraction but Cash doesn’t do relationship, and the latest media frenzy refuses to die down as Cash’s personal life is paparazzi fodder. Kara is desperate enough to take Cash up on his offer but outlines three rules that must be obeyed in an effort to remain in control of the situation. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense

We are introduced to Cash’s parent Anne and Jacob Westbrook, as well as Kara’s father Kurt Langley, and his aide Jacie, as well as Kara’s friend Suzy. We are reintroduced to Knox Savage of Savage Security, as well as security guards Dex and Hector. The requisite evil has many faces.

CASH is a story of family, desperation, addiction and love. The premise is engaging, entertaining and enticing; the characters are colorful, energetic and charismatic; the romance is passionate and seductive. CASH is a fast paced, sizzling and animated story line.

(Power Players #3)

Genre: adult, contemporary, erotic, romance

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 24, 2015

Rebecca hasn’t seen or heard from her mob boss father in four years, but she’s about to receive a message from him that will throw her life into chaos. She thought she left the crime family, and the painful memories, behind when she went into law enforcement. She never expected to be abducted by a smoking hot stranger. But when this stranger makes Rebecca an offer too tempting to refuse, she finds herself dragged into one of the most ruthless vendettas of the century.

Knox Savage is well known as the infuriatingly sexy CEO of Knox Security and a notorious bad boy. What most don’t know about Knox is that he loves helping high-profile criminals escape justice. He makes no judgments about guilt or innocence. And he doesn’t do it for sentimental reasons. But he’s about to take on a case that’s going to get very personal.

WARNING: Due to strong language, graphic violence, and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

••••••••

REVIEW: KNOX is the third instalment in Cassia Leo’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAYER erotic, romance series. This is billionaire CEO of Knox Security Knox Savage (aka Marco Leone), and mob princess / police evidence intake officer Rebecca Veneto’s story line. KNOX can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. KNOX was originally released as a four-part serial in 2014.

NOTE: KNOX contains scenes of graphic violence, as well as Domination and submission, punishment and bondage that may not be suitable for all readers.

Told from three first person perspectives (Knox, Rebecca and August) KNOX follows the rekindling relationship between billionaire CEO of Knox Security Knox Savage (aka Marco Leone), and mob princess / police evidence intake officer Rebecca Veneto. As the only daughter and child of John Veneto , the head of the Veneto Crime Family, Rebecca can lay claim to witnessing things that have affected her life, and her less than stellar relationship with her father and mother. A ghost from the past will come back into Rebecca’s life in the hopes of settling a score for sins long ago. Enter billionaire CEO of Knox Security-Knox Savage aka Marco Leone-the man with whom Rebecca will fall in love. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship and romance between Rebecca and Knox, and the potential fall-out as Rebecca is pulled back into the life she left long ago.

Knox has waited ten years for the woman that has called to his heart but ten years in which he has planned for the destruction of the man that destroyed his life. With the upcoming trial of Rebecaa’s father John Venetto, Knox is hoping to secure his release in an effort to find the man responsible for the loss of life that set him on a path towards vengeance and death. Rebecca Veneto just wants to forget about what happened and why but the reappearance of Marco Leone, the man now calling himself Knox Savage, brings with it too many memories of a time long ago.

The relationship between Knox and Rebecca is one of second chances of a sorts: years earlier, a then fifteen year old Rebecca fell in love with Marco Leone but Marco’s path lay before him, a path from which he would lay out the foundations of his future life. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

We are introduced to Rebecca’s father, Crime Lord John Veneto; her long suffering mother Marie; co-worker Tracy Warner; bestie Lita, and Rebecca’s ex-boyfriend August Simmons. The requisite evil has many faces.

KNOX is a story of family, vengeance, second chances and love. The fast paced premise is engaging and edgy; the romance is spicy and hot; the characters are sassy, flirty and strong. KNOX is a dramatic and passionate look at mafia-style romance.
