BLOG TOUR :: INHIBITIONS BY KIMBERLY BRACCO (REVIEW & EXCERPT & GIVEAWAY)


 Title: Inhibitions
Author: Kimberly Bracco
Genre: Adult, Contemporary Romance
Release Date: February 20, 2015


In the last six months, Ashley’s life has been one disappointment after another. She walked in on her boyfriend with another woman, leaving her needing a new place to live and a mountain of debt. As if that wasn’t enough, her ex convinces her that his infidelity is her fault for being unadventurous in bed.

Deep down Ashley has always had the desire to be wild but has been held back by her own insecurities. She’s desperate to break free, but she's fearful of how people will judge her if they know her inner desires. She wants nothing more than to lose herself in sex that pushes her to the limit, but she hasn’t found anyone she trusts enough to take her there until she meets Tanner.

Tanner doesn’t trust anyone outside of his inner circle easily. The infamous, media proclaimed playboy, quarterback is tired of people using him for money, connections and to get their fifteen minutes of fame. Determined to protect his image and himself, he makes sure to keep most people at arm’s length until Ashley is thrown into his life. He’s inexplicably drawn to her, and she needs his help in more than ways than one. But to help her, he’ll need to let her in.

There’s an immediate attraction and connection that neither can deny, but can both of them get past their inhibitions and find what they are looking for in each other or will everything backfire in their faces?



Wow.

Just Wow.

Inhibitions is one of the most wow books I have read.

Not because the story is so original or even complicated, and such. It’s real. It’s simple. And it is amazing.

It is a book every woman should read!! Because Ashley is one of us. She’s a woman who has been hurt and betrayed. She’s a woman who tries her best every single day. She’s a woman who wants to be loved. And she’s one strong woman, who can take anything on.

Ashley is such a good and strong woman. She is really awe-inspiring!!

I loved reading about Ashley!!

I LOVED both POVs!! Ashley was so real and Tanner so ideal!! Both POVs gave something different to the book, making it even more incredible than it already is.

Tanner is such a good leading character!! He’s dynamic, sexy, good and successful. And more than anything else, he takes care of our girl. He makes her happy, which is what we all want!!

Needless to say that I loved everything about this book!!

It is one of my favorites and I can’t wait to re-read it!!

I just cannot wait for the next book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, Inhibitions receives More Than 5 Stars, because it managed to stay in my heart mainly due to Ashley’s truth.

NOTE

I really wish authors start saying if the book is a stand-alone or not, because even though you like the book and the series, you want to know if the story will conclude in this book or the next one.

"Hello, beautiful." I smile at her as she approaches.
The smile that lights up her face is bright enough to illuminate the whole floor. God, she’s absolutely stunning, and I know she has no clue just how stunning she is, which make her even more attractive.
"Hey there, handsome. What’re guys up to?" she asks. "I hope we aren’t cramping your style tonight. I know you didn’t plan on hanging out with us." Her insecurity is cute only because of how oblivious she is to the way every guy is looking at her.
"The minute I spotted you, I had no intention of being with anyone else for the rest of the night. I haven’t stopped thinking about you since we had dinner, but everything has been so hectic. That article of yours has done wonders for my image but not for my spare time.” I laugh. “So what were your plans for the evening, baby?" I notice her shiver each time I call her ‘baby.’ I don’t think she’s aware that she does it, so she clearly isn’t aware of how hard my cock gets when she shudders like that. I can’t remember having this problem before. No one has ever affected me this way. I’ve never called anyone ‘baby’ either, but with Ashley, it rolls off my tongue like second nature. I hadn’t been kidding when I’d said I haven’t been able to get her off my mind. I’ve been checking out her other articles over the last few weeks, and she’s been making nightly visits to my fantasies. It’s as though she inside my mind, taking control of me the instant I’m alone. I wonder what she’s doing, if she’s happy, how her day has been… Not to mention all the sexual positions I’ve pictured fucking her in.

Release Date:  February 17, 2015


Synopsis


New York Times bestselling author Sawyer Bennett hits the ice with the story of a playboy athlete whose winning ways lead him to a beautiful woman with a lot to lose.
 
Carolina Cold Fury star Garrett Samuelson never wants to miss out on a single minute of fun. Whether he’s playing hockey, hanging out with friends, or walking the red carpet with a new date on his arm, he lives every day to the fullest. When he meets Olivia Case, he sees someone who’s exactly his type—confident, sexy, smart . . . his next fling. But the more he pursues her, the more Garrett shares a side of himself that other women don’t normally get to see.

Olivia has been keeping a secret. While Garrett lives for the next thrill, Olivia’s not sure she’ll live to see the next day. She’s undergoing treatment for some serious medical issues, and she doesn’t have time for a relationship with no guarantees—especially one with a hot-as-sin womanizer who won’t take no for an answer. But as she gets to know the real Garrett, Olivia can’t help falling for him . . . hard. To reveal the truth would mean risking everything—but you can’t score without taking the tough shots.

What a life changing book this is!

Olivia and Garrett survived so much throughout this book...They had their bad moments.. They had their good ones.. And they certainly had their sinful ones!!

They are amazing together as a couple. Don’t get me wrong; both of them are good people, with hearts of gold. But together? Together they form perfection.

It was just so sad..Olivia’s situation, her health, her troubles, everything she had to go through in such a young age..

Garrett..Most would say he was the surprise..I don’t think that..Everyone is different before and after they meet The One.

“She happened to be standing near me and only after I met her, was I ready to fall.” - Garrett

The story progressed as you would think, though. And that is why it doesn’t receive a 5 Star from me.

Garrett is a great book, with a truly beautiful story about some amazing people (or characters)!!!

What I loved the most about this book is Olivia and Garrett. They are great people. They are very different from each other, but they are such good people. They are wonderful!

Garrett is a well developed story, with brilliant characters that steal the spotlight as they should!

As it always happens with Sawyer Bennett, her book is something you should read!!

So, Garrett receives 4 Gorgeous Stars!!

Amazon  |   Amazon CA  |  Amazon UK   |  Amazon AU




Rian is a wonderful book about love and second chances.

It has an extraordinary story behind it, revolving around special characters who touch your heart.

What I loved the most about it is our couple. Rian and Liadh are such good people. They are giving and caring and they work for what they have, no matter their background. I loved that! I loved that despite how differently they grew up, they ended up to be equally good.

I also liked the different location. Dublin and the Caribbean, and those lovely, gorgeous, unique names the characters have!!

Rian has gathered so many special, different little things that make this book stand out!

It isn’t very long, too, so it was a very enjoyable and delightful read!!!

What I didn’t like very much was how the whole Liam thing was handled. It felt a bit rushed and it didn’t give me the satisfaction, since I didn’t see the details I was looking for. It felt too little in comparison with the rest of the book. It was a moment that wanted more, and I didn’t feel it.

However…..

It is very funny.

It has incredible characters that I absolutely loved.

It is sexy when it should be.

It is different and almost magical!!

So, Rian receives 4 Gorgeous Stars!!!!


The curtains were pulled so tightly that not even a sliver of light entered the room. Only the soft glow from the fireplace illuminated a small area of the bed and Liadh stood naked and proud as she watched Rian slowly undress. As his cock sprang loose from his tight black cotton boxers she breathed in sharply. So magnificent a sight before her, she almost lost her composure. His skin had beads of sweat that shone like diamonds on his skin, and she could smell the muskiness of it as he took off each layer and dropped it beside him onto the wooden floorboards.
Rian walked towards her and kissed her full and hard on the mouth, he pulled her in close to his body. Liadh could feel every inch of him hard and wet. She was enveloped by the blackness of the room, the serenity of their secret place, intoxicated by the scent and shape of him, the feeling of his coolness against her warmth. His mouth, his lips, his tongue, all known to her and so precious. Liadh returned every movement, replicated every touch he lavished upon her. Abandoning any semblance of reason or fear she grinded against him as the tip of his cock banged over her pussy tantalising every piece of her.
He held her face tightly and deepened the kiss, his tongue probing into her mouth, his teeth nipping at her lips as she moaned loudly into his mouth.
“My mouth wants your cock,” she mumbled into his mouth. Rían stilted suddenly and she felt his breath coming in short bursts.
“Are you sure, I mean I don’t want you to feel you have to do…”
Liadh pressed her fingers to his lips “Shut up Rían, I want you in my mouth. Give me what I want.”
His mouth was dry so he just nodded at her. Whatever she wanted she would have. It had always been that way.
Rian lay back on the bed and threaded his hands behind his head. Liadh gripped the base of his cock in her hand and traced her tongue up the length of it, twirling it around the head, teasing him, owning him. Rian’s hands flew down to his sides and he gripped either side of the bed, his lower torso rising slightly off the bed to meet her tongue. She felt him tense and jump slightly with the intensity of feeling. His body writhed from the touch of her mouth wrapped around his cock, so warm, so soft. Her hand wandered up to his thighs and she spread them kneading the inside greedily between her fingers, as her mouth continued to suck on him in a steady rhythm, fast and then slow. Twisting her mouth left and right she teased him, tantalised him until he was moaning and begging her to stop.
“Liadh…Liadh you need to stop lovey, I’m gonna come Liadh..Oh Jesus!”
Liadh looked up at him wiping her mouth with the back of her hand.
“Then come Rí, come into my mouth. I want to taste you. I want all of it.” Rian bit his lower lip and bucked beneath her mouth as she brought him to the cusp of an orgasm. Smiling at him she bent her head one last time, gave one last suck as he exploded into her mouth holding her hair tightly between his fingers. He didn’t shout out, instead he shook and whispered her name quietly over and over again. Liadh loved it, the sense of control that washed though her. She had done that, she had given Rían pleasure, and she had made him weak and helpless in her arms. She laid her head on his thigh as he caught his breath and rubbed her hair gently. The taste of him, the smell of him captured in her mouth and on her tongue, she was even hotter for him.
