Release Day Exclusive Sneak Peek at PLAY ME featuring a cameo with Ethan Frost from the NYT Bestselling RUINED and ADDICTED!
“What are you thinking?” Ethan asks after a minute and I’m just opening my mouth to tell him when there’s a sudden commotion at the door. I turn around just in time to see Aria burst through it, looking wilder and hotter than I’ve ever seen her.
She’s dressed in a crimson sundress that hugs every one of her curves even as it makes her olive skin glow. One of the straps has slid down her arm and her hair is a just-rolled-out-of-bed mess. But it’s a captivating look on her, one that has my mind flashing to about a million different things I’d like to do with her—all of which start with plopping her firm, lush ass on my desk and burying my face between her thighs. For hours.
I’m so distracted by the thought of making her come that I almost miss the upset on her face, confusion mixed with hurt and panic and fear. Once I get past her breasts and it sinks in, though, I’m off the couch and heading toward her in an instant. “What’s wrong, Aria? Are you—”
“Fuck me.”
I freeze in my tracks. “What did you say?”
“I want you to fuck me. Right now. Please.”
Ethan rockets up from his chair, shoots me a look that is half-amused, half-concerned. “I will take that as my cue to leave.”
The fact that Aria doesn’t even glance his way tells me all I need to know about her state of mind. All thoughts of Valducci and revenge disappear in my sudden worry for her.
“Baby.” I cross the last of the distance between us and pull her body flush against mine. “What’s going on? What’s wrong?”


“Nothing’s wrong. I’ve just been thinking about what you said on the phone earlier and I want it. I want all of it now.”

Book Review ~ Play Me #5: Play Me Right by Tracy Wolff

Play Me Right
(Play Me #5)
by Tracy Wolff

Expected publication: December 2nd 2014 by Loveswept




Synopsis
Good things never have to end. Tracy Wolff, the New York Times bestselling author of Ruined and Addicted, brings her eBook original serial to an unforgettable climax in Play Me’s sensational finale . . . for now.

My name is Aria Winston. I’ve fought desperately to escape the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas. Now I’m in control of my own life and my own destiny . . . but my future belongs to Sebastian Caine.

Technically, Aria may still be in one piece, but she’s feeling pretty damn close to broken. While she knows Sebastian would die before hurting her, their intense, steamy encounters have opened up old wounds in them both. Now Aria is considering the unthinkable: walking away again—this time to save Sebastian from the pain she knows her past will cause him. But Sebastian’s the one who set her free in the first place—how can she not show him the same care and compassion? Because, in the end, being together forever is the only thing that feels right.

Play Me is an erotic serial intended for mature audiences.

My Thoughts
In the fifth and final installment of Play Me, Aria finally confides in Sebastian about her past.  Shocking as it was, and believe me it was shocking, it was totally not what I was expecting.  In the end though, everything came together beautifully and made perfect sense! 

Although this story is about Sebastian and Aria, the most entertaining character in this installment was Lucy, Aria's sister.  For a sixteen year old, she is wise beyond her years, and really gave Aria some good advice and she is funny as hell!

I really fell in love with Sebastian and Aria as a couple.  They each have their issues, but hopefully the love that they have for each other will make the future easier for them.  I really like the fact that they will be making a cameo appearance in the next Ethan Frost novel.  Their story is definitely not done and I can't wait to see more of them!

Overall, this was a really good series that I totally enjoyed.  Everything about it was intense - from the plot to the sex.  I am normally not a fan of serials, but this one was excellent and given that all five parts will be released on the same day, makes this one a winner in my book. 


Tracy Wolff once again shows that she is an amazing writer and awesome story-teller.  Her writing flows effortlessly and she is able to keep the reader on the edge of their seat the entire time, always guessing what will come next.  If you love a raw and gritty romance with a lot of intrigue, then I would highly recommend the Play Me Series.

Book Review ~ Play Me #4: Play Me Real by Tracy Wolff

Play Me Real
(Play Me #4)
by Tracy Wolff

Expected publication: December 2nd 2014 by Loveswept



Synopsis
How do you know when something’s real? In the steamy fourth installment of an eBook original serial from the New York Times bestselling author of Ruined and Addicted, a devastating betrayal unravels a fierce yet tender connection.

My name is Aria Winston. I’ve fought desperately to escape the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas. Now I’m on my own, in control of my own life and my own destiny . . . just the way I like it. Until Sebastian Caine changes everything.

Aria has learned to play Sebastian’s game. She’s given him control, taken it back, and let him push her farther than she ever imagined she could go. But when Sebastian’s past comes to light, Aria receives a glimpse behind the facade—a revelation that disturbs her even as it makes her feel closer to this simmering, complicated man. Finally she comes to understand the real reason why Sebastian feels the need to dominate everything in his path. But Aria has a tortured history, too. And together they’re a dangerous combination. Now she’s the one pushing Sebastian to the breaking point . . . and if one of them burns up, they’ll both go down together.

Play Me is an erotic serial intended for mature audiences. Aria and Sebastian’s story concludes in Play Me: Right.

My Thoughts
In Part 4 of Play Me, Sebastian’s secret is revealed, and my heart just about broke for this man.  For someone to carry that much guilt for so many years was just heart-wrenching. 

We still do not know much about Aria’s past, but a few more hints are given.  What we do know though is that she is falling in love with Sebastian, but still fears to give him total control.

This installment was INTENSE!  From Sebastian telling the story from his past, and the amazing sex – well, this one had me glued to each and every word.

It is really hard to write a review on this series without giving any spoilers away, but I will say that this series is beyond good!  Ms. Wolff is a spectacular story-teller and really knows how to reel the reader in and keep them interested throughout. I can’t wait to start the 5th and final installment, Play Me Right….I have a feeling that it is going to be EXPLOSIVE!

Book Review ~ Play Me #3: Play Me Hard by Tracy Wolff

Play Me Hard
(Play Me #3)
by Tracy Wolff

Expected publication: December 2nd 2014 by Loveswept


Synopsis
No one ever said love is easy. In the third installment of an eBook original serial from the New York Times bestselling author of Ruined and Addicted, Aria and Sebastian discover that building trust might be harder than they ever imagined.

My name is Aria Winston. I’ve fought desperately to escape the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas. Now I’m on my own, in control of my own life and my own destiny . . . just the way I like it. Until Sebastian Caine changes everything.

Ever since taking Aria under his wing and into his seductive domain, Sebastian hasn’t been able to think straight. Their chemistry is intoxicating. Their power exchange is exhilarating. And the sex leaves them both absolutely exhausted. But if there’s one thing Sebastian does know, it’s that he needs to protect this strong yet vulnerable woman. Because she has depths that are unknown—even to her. Aria has worked hard to establish herself as anything but submissive. That isn’t who she is, or who she wants to be. So why does it feel so sweet to give up control . . . and so intense when Sebastian takes care of needs she doesn’t even realize she has? But he has needs of his own—and secrets that run just as dark and deep as Aria’s.

Play Me is an erotic serial intended for mature audiences. Aria and Sebastian’s story continues in Play Me: Real.

My Thoughts
In Part 3 of Play Me, Ms. Wolff dangles the carrot a little closer and gives the reader a few more clues about Sebastian and Aria’s past, but still leaves us once again with a HUGE, jaw-dropping cliffhanger without any resolution. 

So many freaking secrets!  So much hot and steamy sex!  And so much mystery and intrigue!  But most of all, so much frustration over this amazing serial!  Why the frustration you ask?  Well, because this reader NEEDS to know details, and I’m not getting very many! Yes, we get snippets, but very few, which creates so many possibilities in how this story will end. 

I really am falling in love with Sebastian as he seems to be caring and kind, and an EXCEPTIONAL lover! 

I still don’t know what to think about Aria.  We get a few more details about her past and her family, but really nothing concrete.

I really am enjoying this serial and can’t wait to keep reading on to find out the answers I so desperately need.

Book Review ~ Play Me #2: Play Me Hot by Tracy Wolff

Play Me Hot
(Play Me #2)
by Tracy Wolff

Expected publication: December 2nd 2014 by Loveswept 


Synopsis
Return to a world of secrets and desires. In the sultry second installment of an eBook original serial from the New York Times bestselling author of Ruined and Addicted, Aria and Sebastian turn up the heat. But will they get burned?

My name is Aria Winston. I’ve fought desperately to escape the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas. Now I’m on my own, in control of my own life and my own destiny . . . just the way I like it. Until Sebastian Caine changes everything.

If getting tangled up with her new boss is wrong, Aria doesn’t want to be right. Powerful men usually have a way of thinking they can take whatever they want while giving nothing back, but Sebastian is different. He’s gentle with her body. Rough in all the right places. And hot enough to make Aria break every last rule she’s set for herself. But with her history, it’ll take more than mind-blowing sex to heal the pain deep inside . . . no matter how good Sebastian’s intentions are. She’s spent her entire life fighting for control of her own life, and no one’s going to take that from her. But the more time she spends in Sebastian’s world, the deeper she’s drawn into his sensual games.

My Thoughts
Oh. My. Gosh!  Where Play Me Wild gave us a brief introduction into the two main characters, Sebastian and Aria, Play Me Hot starts off, well, HOT!  Tracy Wolff did not waste a single moment in giving the reader the erotic adventure that was just beginning in part one.  In fact, most of the 55 pages of Play Me Hot was one hot, steamy, erotic session of pure sex that left me breathless – and wanting and needing MORE! 

The mystery surrounding both Sebastian and Aria’s past is driving me absolutely crazy and the frustration is mounting as part 2 just ends – abruptly, without any warning - begging me to start reading part 3.  It’s a really good thing that all 5 parts of this amazing serial are being release on the same day, because I think I would drive myself insane waiting for each installment to be released.

This is a definite page turner and I can’t wait to see what happens next!

Book Review ~ Play Me #1: Play Me Wild by Tracy Wolff

Play Me Wild
(Play Me #1)
by Tracy Wolff

Expected publication: December 2nd 2014 by Loveswept


Synopsis
In the seductive first installment of an eBook original serial from the New York Times bestselling author of Ruined and Addicted, a woman running from her past has finally found a bit of control . . . until her powerful new boss makes her go wild.

My name is Aria Winston. I’ve fought desperately to escape the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas. Now I’m on my own, in control of my own life and my own destiny . . . just the way I like it. Until Sebastian Caine changes everything.

Working as a cocktail waitress at one of Vegas’s hottest five-star casinos means putting up with a ton of bad behavior from the big spenders. But it pays the bills—and that’s all that matters to Aria, who needs every last dollar to escape from her father’s destructive grasp and the brutal man he expects her to marry. But when she lashes out against a billionaire who won’t take no for an answer, she nearly loses everything—until Sebastian steps in. The owner’s son and handpicked successor, Sebastian is dark, sexy, and kinder than any rich man should be. And when he apologizes and offers to keep her job safe, Aria can’t help the way her body reacts to his. Suddenly her job, and the security it brings her, isn’t the only thing Aria wants.

Play Me is an erotic serial intended for mature audiences. Aria and Sebastian’s story continues in Play Me: Hot.

My Thoughts
Play Me Wild is the first installment of what looks like a super-hot five part series.  The reader is introduced to Aria and Sebastian.  Aria is a cocktail waitress working at the Atlantis in Las Vegas.  She is sexy and has a take no crap attitude.  Sebastian is the son of the owner of the Atlantis and is filling in while his father is out with medical issues.  We get a glimpse that maybe Aria is hiding something about her past, but that is all we get – a glimpse.  Sebastian is super hot and sexy and you get the feeling that he likes control and his sight is on controlling Aria – in the bedroom.  The sexual chemistry between the two is just beginning, but I get the feeling it is about to explode!

Play Me Wild is a big tease and I can’t wait to read the next installment of this series.  Knowing how Tracy Wolff writes, it will no doubt be amazing and I am super excited to continue reading on!

Special thanks to Loveswept via NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
