His Number One Fan
Danyell A. Wallace - 2015
She’s a pre-med student who’s looking forward to a well-deserved break from the common stress of being a college student. So she decides that instead of going to Italy with her family during her two-week spring break, she wants to spend it with Caleb instead, who also happens to be a member of an up and coming band called Wildfire, that’s well known in the Sacramento area. Her plan is to fly out to California to catch up and reminisce with her best friend, but that all changes her first night there when she meets the rest of the band members, and becomes real curious about their lead singer, Mason Scott. Their first encounter is brief, but when his gray eyes land on her brown ones, she knew she wanted to know more about him…In every imaginable way. The night she steps foot inside the club, The Grind, to watch Wildfire’s last performance before they were set to go on tour with Caleb’s dad’s band, Hurricane, she’s immediately drawn to the sounds of an electric guitar, drums, and a strong sexy raspy voice echoing throughout the club. Her eyes search the room looking for the owner of the voice, when they finally land on Mason. He was standing behind the microphone with his eyes closed, grasping it while letting the lyrics flow through his lips. Every emotion he was feeling came flowing. Women were screaming his name, demanding his attention, while the men stood in awe wishing they could be him. Nyla stood there not wanting to move, afraid that she would miss the message that he was trying to get across in the lyrics. She was never a fan of rock music, but then again she really didn’t have a favorite genre either. If it was good to her she listened to it, and Wildfire was good. Mason stops singing and pulls away from the mic, and picks up an acoustic guitar sitting on its stand nearby and starts playing it with so much grace. She couldn’t take her eyes off of him. Seeing him perform gave her an amazing feeling. She always relied on video clips and audio snippets that Caleb sent to her by text message of Mason’s musical talent, and now she was experiencing it live. Everything about Mason oozed sex appeal from his tousled black hair, all the way down to his exposed neck, arms, and legs, that showed off his different tats, to the way he worked the crowd. Flirting with every male or female he came in contact with. He didn’t discriminate. He makes his way back to the mic, and he closes his eyes briefly again, and begins rocking back and forth, allowing the music to take over him. Before singing the next verse to the song, he opens his eyes and they lock with hers. From that single moment alone. She became His Number One Fan… Not realizing that this night was the beginning of both of their lives changing forever…

Moan
Kenya Wright - 2016
WARNING: If Eyes Wide Shut and The Da Vinci Code had a one night stand in a dark alley while it was raining, then this novel would be there baby. The main setting of this story is a masquerade ball where sex lathers every inch of the castle, and all masked guests are welcome to explore any desire. BLURB:
Roman, the Sex Tycoon of Europe, requested that Emily interview him. He's invited her to his exclusive masquerade ball in London. She'll be the only reporter there, partying among the most powerful people in the world. But there's something bigger going on at this party where masks hide the wicked, and sex happens in and out of the shadows. There are lives at stake, and Roman is certain that Emily can help. All he has to do is keep his hands off of her long enough to take down an evil man called the Devil. But it's hard to focus with a woman like Emily and the more he's around her, he's thinking less about the plans and wondering more about the many ways he can make her moan.
EXCERPT:
Roman had the kind of face that stroked the wicked parts of the body—ripe lips, tanned skin, midnight hair and a smooth grin. Strong and defined, his cheekbones made me want to nibble them.
His jaw was a work of art in a deep, catastrophic way, because although it was beautiful I wanted to do so many naughty things to it. Things that one didn’t do with a human jaw. I wanted to rub my sex all over its angular length until I came. I wanted to use my nipples to trace circles all over it. I wanted to fuck him hard. I wanted to bite. I wanted to gnaw. I wanted to grip his bed sheets and moan as he moved on top of me.
