REVIEW: CASH is the fourth instalment in Cassia Leo’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAYERS erotic, romances series. This is billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley’s story line. CASH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalment is revealed where necessary.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Kara and Cash) CASH follows the fake engagement and building relationship between billionaire heir to Westbrook Oil Cash Westbrook, and Vegas Black Jack dealer Kara Langley. Kara Langley is desperate for money to pay her father’s medical bills when the opportunity of a lifetime finds our heroine the new Black Jack dealer at a private billionaire’s club, a club where she will meet the man with whom she will fall in love. Enter billionaire playboy and manwh*re Cash Westbrook, a man with more than his share of media disasters. When Westbrook Oil deems Cash a threat to the stability of the board, in desperation Cash sets about to clean up his image starting with a ‘fake’ fiancé in the form of Kara Langley. What ensues is the building relationship and love between Kara and Cash, and the potential fall-out as Kara’s father’s past seeks redemption for sins of the past using Kara and the people she loves in their need for retribution and repayment.

Cash is desperate to make good on the promise to clean up his image in an effort to reclaim his seat on the board but desperation meant finding the first available woman willing to play along as his fake fiancé, a move that threatens his family and his life. Kara Langley struggles to pay the mounting bills for her father’s medical treatments but sins from the past threaten any semblance of peace when Kara is targeted, and her life becomes a bargaining chip in a dangerous game on the Las Vegas strip. When Cash offers Kara one-million dollars to play his fake fiancé, Kara hopes to stay one step ahead of those trying to destroy her life.

The relationship between Kara and Cash is one of immediate attraction but Cash doesn’t do relationship, and the latest media frenzy refuses to die down as Cash’s personal life is paparazzi fodder. Kara is desperate enough to take Cash up on his offer but outlines three rules that must be obeyed in an effort to remain in control of the situation. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense

We are introduced to Cash’s parent Anne and Jacob Westbrook, as well as Kara’s father Kurt Langley, and his aide Jacie, as well as Kara’s friend Suzy. We are reintroduced to Knox Savage of Savage Security, as well as security guards Dex and Hector. The requisite evil has many faces.

CASH is a story of family, desperation, addiction and love. The premise is engaging, entertaining and enticing; the characters are colorful, energetic and charismatic; the romance is passionate and seductive. CASH is a fast paced, sizzling and animated story line.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date October 24, 2015

Rebecca hasn’t seen or heard from her mob boss father in four years, but she’s about to receive a message from him that will throw her life into chaos. She thought she left the crime family, and the painful memories, behind when she went into law enforcement. She never expected to be abducted by a smoking hot stranger. But when this stranger makes Rebecca an offer too tempting to refuse, she finds herself dragged into one of the most ruthless vendettas of the century.

Knox Savage is well known as the infuriatingly sexy CEO of Knox Security and a notorious bad boy. What most don’t know about Knox is that he loves helping high-profile criminals escape justice. He makes no judgments about guilt or innocence. And he doesn’t do it for sentimental reasons. But he’s about to take on a case that’s going to get very personal.

WARNING: Due to strong language, graphic violence, and sexual content, this book is not intended for readers under the age of 18.

••••••••

REVIEW: KNOX is the third instalment in Cassia Leo’s contemporary, adult POWER PLAYER erotic, romance series. This is billionaire CEO of Knox Security Knox Savage (aka Marco Leone), and mob princess / police evidence intake officer Rebecca Veneto’s story line. KNOX can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. KNOX was originally released as a four-part serial in 2014.

NOTE: KNOX contains scenes of graphic violence, as well as Domination and submission, punishment and bondage that may not be suitable for all readers.

Told from three first person perspectives (Knox, Rebecca and August) KNOX follows the rekindling relationship between billionaire CEO of Knox Security Knox Savage (aka Marco Leone), and mob princess / police evidence intake officer Rebecca Veneto. As the only daughter and child of John Veneto , the head of the Veneto Crime Family, Rebecca can lay claim to witnessing things that have affected her life, and her less than stellar relationship with her father and mother. A ghost from the past will come back into Rebecca’s life in the hopes of settling a score for sins long ago. Enter billionaire CEO of Knox Security-Knox Savage aka Marco Leone-the man with whom Rebecca will fall in love. What ensues is the rebuilding relationship and romance between Rebecca and Knox, and the potential fall-out as Rebecca is pulled back into the life she left long ago.

Knox has waited ten years for the woman that has called to his heart but ten years in which he has planned for the destruction of the man that destroyed his life. With the upcoming trial of Rebecaa’s father John Venetto, Knox is hoping to secure his release in an effort to find the man responsible for the loss of life that set him on a path towards vengeance and death. Rebecca Veneto just wants to forget about what happened and why but the reappearance of Marco Leone, the man now calling himself Knox Savage, brings with it too many memories of a time long ago.

The relationship between Knox and Rebecca is one of second chances of a sorts: years earlier, a then fifteen year old Rebecca fell in love with Marco Leone but Marco’s path lay before him, a path from which he would lay out the foundations of his future life. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic and intense.

We are introduced to Rebecca’s father, Crime Lord John Veneto; her long suffering mother Marie; co-worker Tracy Warner; bestie Lita, and Rebecca’s ex-boyfriend August Simmons. The requisite evil has many faces.

KNOX is a story of family, vengeance, second chances and love. The fast paced premise is engaging and edgy; the romance is spicy and hot; the characters are sassy, flirty and strong. KNOX is a dramatic and passionate look at mafia-style romance.

••••••••••

REVIEW: KNOX is the eighth and final instalment in Crimson Syn’s contemporary, adult HELLBOUND LOVERS MC erotic, romance series focusing on the men and women of the Hellbound Lovers MC. This is exotic dancer Jade Winters, and MC Enforcer Eric Knox’s story line. KNOX can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary but I recommend reading the series in order as there is an on-going premise throughout.

NOTE: KNOX contains scenes of graphic violence and sexual situations including some scenes of domination and submission that may not be suitable for all readers.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Knox and Jade) KNOX follows the forbidden relationship between exotic dancer Jade Winters, and MC Enforcer Eric Knox. Years earlier Eric Knox, along with Grayson Carter and Wolf Stone, served in Afghanistan with Jackson Winters. A roadside set up and diversion ended Jackson’s life but not before Knox promised his friend that he would look after his sister Jade. Fast forward to present day wherein Knox continues to struggle with his attraction to Jade, a attraction he believes threatens the promise he made. With the reappearance of Cartel boss Juan De La Cruz comes threats of another nature when Juan eyes Jade as the ultimate prize. What ensues is the building relationship between Jade and Knox, and the battle to stay one step ahead of Juan De La Cruz, as he sets a plan into motion to make Jade his own.

KNOX is a highly sexual, erotic story line with scenes of graphic violence. The attraction between Knox and Jade is palpable; Knox has wanted Jade from the first time they met but a promise to Jackson kept Knox in the wings. Five years would pass before Knox made his intentions known, intentions that Juan De La Cruz uses as fodder in his bid for Jade.

We are introduced to some of the characters in the author’s new spin off series: Ryan ‘Reaper’ Simon and the Death Row Shooters MC, and Father ‘Rex’ King and The Fallen Kings MC.

KNOX is a fast paced, edgy and energetic story-the perfect end to an imaginative series.

My name is Crimson Syn, not really, but what fun is it to use my real name. Instead I’ll use my inner goddess’ name, it’s much more fun that way. I grew up in New York City where I had a wonderful education, loving parents and awesome friends. What more could a girl ask for?

I started writing at the age of sixteen. The first romance I read was Stephanie Laurens’ Devil’s Bride. Since then I have been influenced by dozens of flourishing romance authors and even more dashing and daring rogues. I must say it, but Fifty Shades was not my first erotic romance, nor did it influence me to start writing them. If you’ve never read Mary Balogh, Elizabeth Hoyt, Lisa Kleypas, Bertrice Small or A.N. Roquelaure’s Sleeping Beauty trilogy, then you’re missing out. Those were my sweet introductions to erotic romance, and boy were they hot.

So here I am, after reading so many wonderful stories, I have too many sinful tales of my own not to share. I like my alphas rough and possessive, and I have no shame in saying it or writing it. I had delightfully wicked teachers growing up, their books took me to new worlds and brought me new loves. So, I want to do the same for you. I want to indulge my readers in those steamy reads that will send them into the arms of dangerous alphas and deliciously sexy rogues, without leaving the confines of their nice warm bed. If I am able to entice your inner goddesses, then I have done my job and I am satisfied.
