I find it hard to sum up my life in a paragraph, but I’ll try.

Reading has always been a passion for me and writing is as instinctive as breathing. Every inhale is an idea; every exhale a creation. Flutter, The Discover Series, was my debut release and since then I have written a contemporary romance duet- The Edge of Darkness and The Grace in Darkness. I also co-wrote Little Black Book and The Wrath Of Sin with Tabatha Vargo.
The only thing I do better than writing? Making beautiful, sassy, and independent girls. My daughters will always be my greatest accomplishment, my biggest fans, and my every inspiration. I live, breath, and would die for them! I’ve been married to one of the greatest men in my life for eight years and I love him more than chocolate (you know shit just got real :), Justin Timberlake and Friday’s. Without him, my website would be a mess and I would probably be paying more taxes than I should be. He’s a jack of many trades, and this is just my opinion, but I like to think besides my daughters, I’m his second-biggest accomplishment. (Does anyone else hear a horn tooting?)
I was born in Denver, Colorado, but I will always think of sunny Arizona as my home. I don’t have a big family, but I’m close with my sister, brother & mom. My mom is my hero, my reality check, and I couldn’t have asked for a more amazing person to be raised by. She has supported me throughout this crazy adventure and I’m lucky to have her on my side!
6 things you should know about me:
1. I’m a tornado with lipstick! Translation: I’m very girly, but I can get down and dirty with the best of them.
2. I adore the color pink!
3. I love things that sparkle (including vampires!)
4. I like even numbers (hence 6 things about me, not 5)
5. I’m loyal to a fault, but I like to see the good in everybody. Don’t mistake my kindness for weakness though because my bark is not always bigger than my bite :))
6. I don’t like calling readers ‘fans’. When it comes down to it, I am all YOUR biggest fan! MWAH!
I will never be able to thank every reader, every blogger, or every author who has helped me in one or a million ways since I published, but I will try every chance I get. Y’all are the reason I’m here and every comment, every message, and every review makes me feel like I have a reason to be. So to the moon and back, THANK YOU! Mwah!

Okay, so this was a little longer than a paragraph.

Review - The Wrath of Sin by Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea


Title: The Wrath of Sin 
Series: Mortal Sin #1 
Author: Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea 
Release Date: April 25, 2016


SIN
I'm not a murderer, but fury will make you do irrational things. I need my vengeance, therefore she must die. But revenge is bittersweet when desire overpowers your reason. She threatens everything. I don’t want to feel human again, and that’s how she makes me feel.
She calls me SIN, and she will feel my WRATH.

EMILY
Pleasure. Passion. Lust.
Those were all foreign to me. I needed something more. But when I met him, I got more than I bargained for. I’m sick with desire for my keeper. He’s a mystery—an enigma. His agony is evident in every painful touch. I want to rescue him, but I must save myself first.
I call him SIN, and he’s the epitome of LUST.






Wow!! This story grabbed me right from the beginning and it refused to let me go until the end, wishing…no, hoping that Jacksin would get the closure and happiness he so deserved. 

Oh, that Sinful Sin—he's a hard-headed a$ and stubborn like heck! He knows he's right and he'll do whatever he has to, to prove it. Little did Sin and Emily realize, their feelings would take root and refuse to let go until they both gave in. 

This was an emotional read, which had me on pins and needles, rooting for Jacksin to find peace and redemption, and for Emily to find the happiness she's been chasing, even if it's with someone like Sin. 

It flowed beautifully and had my undivided attention—so much so that when I got to the end, I was sad seeing their journey end....**Sigh** 
~ Review by Kara

Wrath of Sin is totally sinful, in a dark and demented way… 

I have to say Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea are solid writers who are guaranteed to entertain. This was a fast read for me because once I started, I couldn’t put it down. There were so many things going on. Jacksin isn’t sure which way is up, or how to get out of the bottle in his hands. Emily is striving to live a not-so-boring life. What happens when these two individuals collide is something I never could have expected. 

There were so many directions this book could have gone. They could have delved into the deep, dark, mental health issues of what happens after loss. That’s a rabbit hole that spirals to depths we can’t even imagine unless we’ve experienced it. But yet somehow, they helped a reader find the light in this. I’m not sure how or when it exactly happened. I did recognize the process for what it was, but it was just So. Much. More. 

Sin. Sexy. Dark. Dangerous. Demented. Sad. Angry. —All words I’d use to quickly describe the characters, feelings and emotions of this book in an overall way. Then, there’s the light. Just one small sliver that makes its way out. That’s what we all live for. The slivers of light that bring us hope.

Review - Little Black Break by Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea


Title: Little Black Break
Series: Little Black Book #2
Author: Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea
Release Date: March 8, 2016


My name’s Sebastian Black, and my life as I know it is over. My little black book days were numbered the minute I met Rosslyn. She became my one and only and lightened my dark soul.

But now my past is threatening my future—threatening the woman I love. I’ll do whatever it takes to protect her. Even if I have to lie—pretend to cheat—I need her to leave my world and remain safe.

Breaking her heart is killing me, but I refuse to let my old sins destroy the only good in my life.

If you love her, let her go. If you’re dangerous like me, pray she stays away. I won’t let her get caught in the crossfire. No matter who I have to break.






I loved Little Black Book, so I was excited to see that Sebastian and Rosslyn were finally getting another book. 

Sebastian and Rosslyn have come a long way in their relationship, but now someone is threating their happiness. Sebastian is determined to protect Rosslyn no matter the cost or heartbreak…

I enjoyed seeing Sebastian and Rosslyn’s lives again. Sebastian is as protective as ever. It was a bit hard reading them going through so much hurt and heartbreak because of some person who doesn’t want them to be together. 

I liked this book. It was a good sequel that added some suspense. Rosslyn and Sebastian go through a lot in this book—but they make it through to the other side. The epilogue was a good little look into the future, and this sequel was just what these two needed! 
~ Review by Leah

Little Black Break is the second book that follows Sebastian and Rosslyn, as they take the next steps of their relationship… 

I’m a huge fan of Little Black Book and was clawing at the fence for this book. I jumped into it as soon as it landed on my Kindle. It didn’t take two pages for me to be engrossed into the world that is Mr. Black. He is the ultimate alpha male. The type we all enjoy reading about. He’s hot, hungry for his woman, loves control and it’s his way or the highway. Rosslyn has a sassy mouth and doesn’t take his demands laying down. Sebastian will do anything for his Jessica—ANYTHING! To what extremes will he go? Read it and you’ll find out! 

This is a typical Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea book—and by typical, I mean it’s anything but. You never know what you will get when you jump into something they’ve written. There is angst, mystery, dominant men, sassy women, and so much more. I stayed up until 2:30AM to finish this book and I wasn’t disappointed. I was ready for more. More Mr. Black. More Jessica Rabbit. More Rosslyn. Just MORE…

Blog Tour - Little Black Book by Tabatha Vargo & Melissa Andrea


 

Title: Little Black Book
Author: Tabatha Vargo & Melissa Andrea
Release Date: June 30, 2014
 
 
 
My name’s Sebastian Black, and I want to buy you. I could have any woman I want, but I choose you.

NO RELATIONSHIP, JUST SEX.

Here’s my offer…


I’ll put your name in my LITTLE BLACK BOOK, and when I want you, I’ll call you. When I call, you’re going to come, in more ways than one. It will be mutually pleasurable for both of us.

There are only two rules:


DON'T EVER DENY ME.
DON'T FALL IN LOVE.


If you do either, I’ll remove you from my book and payment stops.

Do we have an understanding?

 



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The blurb for this book really intrigued me, it doesn't give you much, just enough, to make you want more! Once I started reading I didn't want to stop.
 
Both of the main characters, Sebastian and Rosslyn aka Roz, have dark pasts. The way they live their lives shows that.  I thought that Roz was a strong female character.  With all she had been through and her current situation she did her best to keep her and her brother safe.  Sebastian uses the women in his Little Black Book so he can stay away from love but still have sex.  The women in his little black book are nameless to him, besides the cartoon character nicknames he gives them.  They come together because Roz has no other choice and she is Sebastian's Jessica Rabbit.  They learn a lot about each other through their abnormal relationship and they both ended up with more than they had wanted in the beginning.  
 
There were definitely some hot scenes in this book, but that is something you can expect with Sebastian Black!  I ended up loving both Sebastian and Roz as characters and I would love it if they got another book!  Little Black Book was the first book I've read from both of these authors, and after reading this one I will be sure to check out their other books!

Sebastian Black, oh, Sebastian Black, damn the man is sexy as Hell! How can you read that synopsis and not One-Click immediately? Find a comfortable spot to sit, dive in and make sure to have a spare pair of panties on hand.

Mr. Black doesn't do love, he doesn't do attachments. He assigns his women names of cartoon characters and never bothers to learn their real ones. If they start to get the look of love in their eyes, they're done. Cut off and erased from the book. 

Rosslyn has been dealt a shitty hand in life. Struggling to take care of her younger brother a job at Clive's, Sebastian's club, is a Godsend to her. But the enigmatic owner doesn't want her at his customer's beck and call, he wants her all to himself.

Throw in some cat and mouse, a little bit of drama, suspense and lots of sexy time and you have a winning book on your hands! I loved Little Black Book. I was totally wrapped up in this book and fell more for these characters in each and every chapter. A great read by this pair of authors, Tabatha Vargo and Melissa Andrea. It is a standalone, no cliffhanger. 

Now go to amazon, go directly to amazon, do not pass go, do not collect $200. One-Click and make a date with uber sexy Sebastian.
 
~ Review by Erin
 
 
 
 
 
 

Let me start off by saying this book was Sizzling Hot! From the beginning of the book's blurb until the very last word of the book it had my full, undivided attention.

Sebastian Black's appetite for no strings attached sex consumed him like the need for air to survive. He picks the ones that he wants added to his Little Black Book but under the name he deems them worthy of...like Bambi, Wilma, Betty...
 
As you get to know Sebastian you come to see that he is a man tormented by his past demons that will not let him go and I will say once you realize what they are you will end up shaking your head and hoping it's not true. His way of coping with those demons is getting lost in nameless women that he controls as he pleases. There is one woman that is constantly in Sebastian's life and that is Victoria "Vick" and you see why she is and why he feels he can't let her go. When his eyes land on Roz working there at his club he knows he's met his match - "Jessica".
 
"Her thick-lipped smiled kindled something deep in my groin-a tiny spark ignited and made my balls ache."  
 
Roz's life has not been easy and she has gone through a lot at a very young age and is still going through it, making tough decisions that not only affect her but her little brother as well. I loved the banter between Sebastian and Roz as well as when Sebastian goes Alpha on Roz at times, to let her know that he's the one calling the shots not Roz's "smart mouth".
 
You will feel like you're on a roller coaster of emotions when reading this book because it's more than Hot Sex - which I will NEVER complain about, but there is an story within these sizzling pages! Thank you Tabatha Vargo & Melissa Andrea for a Hot, Steamy, Sizzling story and maybe we can get a novella on Sebastian & Roz or better yet, another book :-)
