ARE YOU READY TO GET CUFFED?
As a cop, Levi Kincaid is all about discipline and control . . .in the bedroom, and out of it, and he’s always been very careful about choosing women who abide by his rules. Hot sex and intense pleasure? No problem. Emotional commitment and forever promises? No way. But he never anticipates falling for a blue eyed angel who makes him want to cuff her to his bed and do dirty, sexy things to her. And that control of his? It doesn’t stand a chance against Sarah Robins, the one woman he can’t resist .
•••••••••
REVIEW: DIRTY SEXY CUFFED is the third installment in the contemporary, adult DIRTY SEXY erotic romance series, focusing on the Kincaid brothers-Clay, Mason, and Levi- coauthored by Carly Phillips and Erika Wilde. This is youngest brother and police officer Levi Kincaid, and Sarah Robins’ story line. DIRTY SEXY CUFFED can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous stories is revealed where necessary.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Sarah and Levi) the storyline follows Levi on nightly patrol as he tries desperately (for five weeks) to seduce the cashier at the all night variety into a date. Sarah Robins continues to turn all of Levi’s efforts down until an armed robbery places Levi between Sarah and a loaded gun. What ensues is a friends to lovers romance wherein Levi will discover that Sarah is on the run from her past-a past that is about to catch up with the present.
The relationship between our couple is slow to build as Sarah continues to push Levi out of her life. But five weeks is a long time and Sarah is more than grateful when Levi places himself in danger to protect the woman with whom he will fall in love. The $ex scenes are erotic, passionate and intense. Levi likes a little kink in the bedroom.
All of the previous story line couples play secondary and supporting roles. Mason and Katrina are planning their wedding; Clay and Samantha have an announcement of their own. Tara Kent, the bartender at Kincaid’s bar will have her story told next in DIRTY SEXY SINNER. The epilogue ends on a bit of a cliffhanger revealing what’s in store for the Kincaid brothers and Tara.
The world building continues to focus on the dark, abusive and damaging early years of the three Kincaid siblings. From their drug addicted mother to absentee fathers, the backstories are emotional and heartbreaking.
DIRTY SEXY CUFFED is a story about brothers and family; romance and love; letting go and moving forward. The premise is entertaining and hopeful; the characters are playful and dynamic; the romance is provocative and sensual. My only issue is the conflict resolution that felt like a bit of a let down; too quick, too simple, and not without some questionable actions.

Excerpt #3
What about fun? he countered easily. Ever take time for that?
It’s been awhile, she admitted softly. He didn’t miss the quick flicker of sadness in her gaze that made him want to reach out and touch her, to use his thumb to smooth away the crease that had formed between her brows. Resisting the urge took more effort than he’d expected. Then how about you say yes to a date with me, and I’ll remedy that for you. I’m all about having a good time with a pretty girl, he added with a wink. She opened her mouth to speak, and certain a denial was about to spill out, he quickly held up a hand to stop her.
Wait. Don’t say anything. She pressed her lips back together, and even though her gaze was wary, he continued on while he still had a bit of leverage. I want you to really think about your answer this time, instead of automatically turning me down, because one more rejection might just crush me.

Erika Wilde:
Erika Wilde (aka Janelle Denison) is the USA Today bestselling author of over 50 contemporary romances for multiple print publishers.
So, why the new pen name?
As Janelle Denison I’ve always written sexy books, but lately my writing has taken on more erotic elements that I wanted to keep separate for readers because not everyone likes their reading material on the spicier, kinkier side of romance. However, please be assured that even as Erika Wilde, you will still get an emotionally layered story with characters you’ll care about and fall in love with. That is always my goal, whether I’m writing straight contemporary romances, or more erotically charged stories.
Currently, I’m working on The Marriage Diaries and making sure that Dean and Jillian enjoy exploring the more erotic side to their marriage. The series will be on-going, with no foreseeable ending as of right now, for as long as readers want to be voyeurs to Dean and Jillian’s sizzling new relationship.
I’m also planning a spin-off series in the future, featuring the hot military men that work security for Dean at Noble and Associates.
