ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 12, 2016
It’s been five years since I’ve seen her.
Five years since Gabriella James damn near destroyed me with her betrayal, sending me to hell in a cage.
I’ve crawled free, escaped the mob, opened a night club, and continue to battle my demons through underground fighting and sex. But now Gabriella’s back, begging for absolution, wanting my forgiveness. All I want is what she’s denied me for all these years — her body.
Sex. That’s all we’ll ever have.
Because Gabriella is still keeping secrets. I see it in her eyes.
I don’t trust her, and I’ll never forgive her betrayal.
But that won’t stop me from taking her.
Over…and over…and over…

REVIEW:
ONLY FOR YOU is the third installment in Naima Simone’s contemporary, adult, erotic, romance THE LICK novella series focusing on three childhood friends: Rion Ward, Sasha Merchant, and Killian Vincent, co-owners of the nightclub Lick, and their exclusive aphrodisiac club The Loft. This is underground MMA fighter Killian Vincent, and bartender Gabriella James’s second chance story line. ONLY FOR YOU can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Killian and Gabriella) ONLY FOR you focuses on the rekindling relationship between MMA fighter Killian Vincent, and Gabriella James. Five years earlier, to protect the man that she loved, Gabriella called the police in the hopes of preventing a potential massacre within the Irish mob only to discover that Killian had been arrested on trumped up charges and it would be five years before she was able to explain her story, apologize, and move on with her life. Back in town for a girl’s night out lands our heroine in the nightclub owned by the man that she loved but a man she no longer recognizes due to experiences and life behind bars. Gabriella offers Killian anything he wants, one night free of inhibitions, and Killian wants everything Gabriella has to offer.
ONLY FOR YOU is a highly sexual story of second chances, perceived betrayal, and personal revenge. Killian’s mind was destroyed; his need to hurt reflected in his MMA fighting style; but his love for Gabriella burned with thoughts of retribution and moving on. The rekindling relationship brought with it memories of what was, and a past that refused to move forward. The $ex scenes are erotic, provocative and intense. Gabriella is willing to submit to atone for her sins-there are some light BDSM scenes of bondage and spanking, as well as some oral and anal play with toys.
ONLY FOR YOU is another quick and sexy read; a story that wraps up the LICK series with an epilogue that fast forwards the series one year where we get a glimpse into all three relationships and what is in store for the future. The premise is wicked; the romance is a steamy-a second chance at forever; the characters are broken but growing strong.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 30, 2016
Rion Ward fought hard to be free of the Irish mob life. Now, as the co-owner of Boston’s hottest aphrodisiac club, he’s traded crime for the ultimate sexual fantasy. But when the “good girl” from his past walks through Lick’s doors, he discovers that his unconsummated hunger for her never abated.
Widowed for two years from a man who felt that anything besides the missionary position was dirty, Harper Shaw is ready to move on. The first step to feeling alive again is sex. Hot, dirty, black-out-from-orgasm sex. And who better to provide it than the brooding, sexy, tatted bad boy-turned-man she’s known for years?
Rion, however, has one stipulation: He’ll be hers only for one night. One night to explore her every fantasy. One night to push her limits. One night to introduce her to a passion that makes both doubt if it will be enough

REVIEW: ONLY FOR A NIGHT is the first installment in Naima Simone’s contemporary, adult THE LICK SERIES erotic, romance novella series focusing on three childhood friends who grew up working and living for the Irish Mob- Rion Ward, Sasha Merchant, and Killian Vincent, co-owners of the nightclub Lick, and their exclusive aphrodisiac club The Loft. This is Rion Ward, and Harper Shaw’s story line.
NOTE: ONLY FOR A NIGHT contains some scenes of M/F/M sexual situations including anal and oral play.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Harper and Rion) ONLY FOR A NIGHT focuses on the rekindling relationship between widow Harper Shaw, and co-owner of The Lick aphrodisiac club Rion Ward. Five years earlier Rion Ward walked away from the only woman that he loved pushing Harper Shaw into the arms of another man. Fast forward to present day wherein the now widowed Harper returns asking Rion for a night of sexual pleasure knowing that her heart still belonged to the man in question.
The second chance relationship between Rion and Harper covers but a day or two in the life. Their highly sexual rekindling is the major focus on the story line premise without any outside interference or conflict. The $ex scenes are erotic, provocative and intense
We are introduced to Rion’s friends and co-owners at Lick and The Loft- Sasha Merchant and Killian Vincent-two men who along with Rion fought their way out of the Irish Mob.
ONLY FOR A NIGHT is a sexually seductive story line; a second chance romance between two people whose lives were destroyed by sins of the past, and a reluctance to accept love and a happily ever after. The premise is fueled by want and need; the romance is hot; the characters are passionate.

About the book: RELEASE DATE: October 10, 2016
The Boston press calls her the Mob Princess. I call her trouble.
Discretion is my business, and the reporters dogging her every step are bad news. She’s looking to rebel, to tarnish her naïve “good girl” image by getting dirty with me. I gave up a career as a thief, but Corrine Salvaggi’s wide eyes and sinful mouth damn near begs me to steal her innocence. To corrupt her.
Lucky for her, I deal in sex.
Whatever your fantasy, I deliver. Voyeurism. Threesomes. A little slap and tickle.…
If it’s your kink, I can fulfill it.
So yeah, life is good. Simple.
Until she enters my club.
Still…
It’s just sex. Our little secret.
For now

REVIEW: ONLY FOR YOUR TOUCH is the second installment in Naima Simone’s contemporary, adult LICK erotic, romance novella series focusing on three childhood friends who grew up working and living for the Irish Mob: Rion Ward, Sasha Merchant, and Killian Vincent, co-owners of the nightclub Lick, and their exclusive sex club The Loft. This is Russian Sasha Merchant, and Mafia princess Corrine Salvaggi’s story line. ONLY FOR YOUR TOUCH can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty.
Told from dual third person perspectives (Sasha and Corrine) ONLY FOR YOUR TOUCH follows the building relationship between Mafia princess Corrine Salvaggi, and club owner Sasha Merchant. Corrine has lead a sheltered life, completely unaware of the family business; oblivious to the illegal activities that provided her life but since the arrest of her father, the truth about the family connections to underworld crime, drug trafficking and prostitution have sent our heroine looking for some action of her own. Enter Sasha Merchant, the man who will make all of Corrine’s fantasies come true.
ONLY FOR YOUR TOUCH is an erotic journey. Corrine needs to let off some steam, and ‘The Loft’ and Sasha Merchant are the perfect avenues to allow Corrine to explore a different side of her life. Sasha knows that to entertain any possibility of a relationship with Corrine invites the world of the Mafia onto his front door. The $ex scenes are intimate, erotic, and intense. Nothing is off limits at ‘The Loft’ between consenting adults.
Sasha’s business partners and friends Rion Ward and Killian Vincent play secondary and supporting characters but there is very little information to tie Rion’s story (Only For A Night #1) to the current timeline.
ONLY FOR YOUR TOUCH is a quick read; a look into the play rooms and sexual adventures of The Loft and its’ exclusive membership. The premise is energetic; the characters are dynamic; the romance is a sexually passionate escape.

“Leave the clothes,” he reiterated.
She shook her head, her grasp on her jeans tightening. “Humiliation wasn’t part of this bargain. I’m not walking out of here without any pants on.” A shadow crossed his face even as his lips firmed into a straight line.
“Humiliate you? You think I want to give every motherfucker out there material to go home and fuck their fist to? Let them look at those thighs and imagine them wrapped around their waist? Their head? No, Gabriella, my intention isn’t to humiliate you,” he murmured, the silken tone all the more dangerous.
“My sole focus is hustling your pretty little ass next door and upstairs as fast as possible. Whatever you think about me, I’d never place you in harm’s way, and that includes exposing you. Now,” he lowered his face until she could easily detect the green flecks in his golden eyes. Something flickered in those eyes. The same thing that, for just a moment, softened his mouth so he appeared almost…vulnerable. Hungry. No, no. Need. Like he needed her to walk out of this room with him. But in the next instant, the emotion disappeared behind a shuttered mask.
“Are you in…or out?”
She didn’t answer. Instead, she dropped the clothes and walked to the door, that brief flash of…whatever accomplishing what the pretty little ass and the possessive tone he’d uttered it in couldn’t.
Naima Simone’s love of romance was first stirred by Johanna Lindsey, Sandra Brown and Linda Howard many years ago. Well not that many. She is only eighteen…ish. Though her first attempt at a romance novel starring Ralph Tresvant from New Edition never saw the light of day, her love of romance, reading and writing has endured. Published since 2009, she spends her days—and nights— creating stories of unique men and women who experience the first bites of desire, the dizzying heights of passion, and the tender, healing heat of love.
She is wife to Superman, or his non-Kryptonian, less bullet proof equivalent, and mother to the most awesome kids ever. They all live in perfect, sometimes domestically-challenged bliss in the southern United States.
