That was, until she ran into an unlikely stranger who flipped her entire world on its axis. Aidan had a secret locked away in his heart; one that would surely send Cassie running the second she discovered it. He held onto her closely and kept his secret guarded, but one careless mistake could reveal all. Their friendship was strong, their moments beautiful, and the love that brewed between them intense—something neither denied. The only problem? Cassie was slowly letting him into her life. Could she let herself get close to the one person she didn’t think she should? Her mind tells her to run, but her heart tells her to stay.

       “God, he’s gorgeous, Cass,” Mel gushed, pulling me out of my thoughts. I followed her swooning eyes and immediately found the source standing by the bar. She was right about one thing: he was definitely good looking.

       His hair was dark; his jawline was sharp, complimenting his clean-shaven face. His body was hidden under a pair of dark jeans that hung on his hips and a button up shirt that was layered under a casual suit jacket. He looked professionally polished. He also had more than just mine and Mel’s eyes on him.

       I bit down on my bottom lip. Something else stuck out about him. I glanced back at Mel. “He looks familiar, doesn’t he?”

       She deepened her gaze on him, wrinkles forming around her eyes. “Eh, kind of. Why don’t you go talk to him?” She wiggled her brows.

      “No. I’m not here to pick up guys. I already have an awesome one back at home.” My voice was playful, but my insides clenched at the thought of talking to a guy—especially that guy.

      “Yes. That’s true.” She held up one finger as if she’d just discovered how they get all that caramel into the Caramilk bar. “But this guy can actually take you to dinner.” She laughed and I gave her an exaggerated eye roll. Suddenly, she sat straighter. “Looks to me like you’ve been noticed too. Someone’s hot-ass eyes are locked on your back. I think he knows you were ogling him.”

      “He does?” My heart went from normal to pounding in zero point three seconds. “How?”

      “For real?” She gave me the you’ve-got-to-be-kidding-meglare. “He’s been looking over here all night, but he caught you just as you turned around. I wasn’t able to hide my looky-loo eyes, sorry.” She shrugged as if to let me know she wasn’t sorry. “What if you do know him? School, maybe?”

      “I don’t know. I guess it could’ve been college. He looks older, though.” The urge to see him up close was something I hadn’t experienced before. It was powerful. “Okay, I’ll go, but just because I need to know where I’ve seen him before.” I couldn’t even admit to myself that part of me wanted to talk to this attractive man just because.

When an accident claims her mother’s life, Keahilani Alana must take charge of her family or risk losing what little they have.

The door to a heavenly hellish opportunity opens when she stumbles upon a valuable secret her mother left behind on the slopes of an extinct volcano—a legacy that tempts the family with riches beyond their wildest dreams. But the secret is much bigger and more sinister than they realize. As reality unravels and exposes eerie truths about the siblings that should have remained deep under the mountain, Keahilani must either resist the call of her blood or risk being consumed by its darkness.

The ladies at All IS READ Congratulates Bella Jewel on the release of Melancholy (Joker's Wrath Book 2) TODAY!  I had the awesome privilege of reading Melancholy and if you are an avid reader of Bella Jewel, this is one for you!  
Enjoy <3 Lexy 


Title: Melancholy (Jokers' Wrath MC, #2)
Author: Bella Jewel
Genre: MC Romance
Release Date: September 15, 2014


"There's never been a time I've cared about anything more than my club. Today that all changed. Today I got you."

To truly understand a story; you need to start from the beginning, but to start from the beginning; you have to go back, further than just you. After all, our stories don’t start with us, do they? Our stories start with the person before us, and the person before them. We are created from the stories of those people - from their mistakes, from their achievements, from their love and their hate.

No one’s story is ever truly their own.

I tried to create my own story, my own path, and my own actions. I’ve seen things people only see in their worst nightmares, but I never let it beat me down. I never let it become who I was. I picked myself up, and I kept going. Everything was what it was.

There was no point analyzing what it could be.

Could be’s didn’t matter.

Until Maddox came into the picture. He saved my life. He changed my world; giving me the second chance some of us only dream about. There was only one thing missing in my second chance, and she was the reason I fought so hard to survive.

My sister.

My sister who is supposed to be dead, well, at least, that’s what I thought.

That’s what he told me.

Now is where my story changes, but to understand this story, you have to start at the beginning…where it all began…and before. 





Melancholy; an abnormal state of gloom, sadness and dejected.

This is all Santana was used to. At an early age, she needed to be the protector, the provider and the broken hearted. Santana did what was necessary to survive, no questions. As it was, life wasn’t always about her and when her “no questions” gets her into a lacking of security, Santana is left in unknown conditions. That is until by chance Maddox, the President of the Joker’s Wrath MC Club finds her, and gives her the protection she needs. Little did Maddox know that this broken girl would grow into a woman he WILL NOT live without. His only problem is that Santana says and acts otherwise.

“When a man kisses you, and he really means it, and you really feel it, then you will ache for him. Everywhere.” ~ Maddox

Enter the quick-tempered, sexy, dominate Maddox. Why is it when an author starts writing these character traits, I am all over them, panting, rubbing my hands ready to dive in?!

 Let’s start from the beginning. I adore Bella Jewel and her books, so it’s no big surprise that I was jumping for joy when this series started. Melancholy is book 2 and Precarious (book1), should be read in order to know the back story to these two combative souls. The energy in this book is classic Bella style, as she grips you into the world of a motorcycle club and their businesses but also laying down the foundation of a great suspense in trying to get back the one thing that Santana thought she lost forever. Her will to survive. 
I definitely liked Maddox and Santana’s story the best so far, but I have this uncanny feeling that I will go berserk when Joker’s Wrath 3 comes out (Mack’s story), but you need to jump into Melancholy first to meet this achingly sweet, dark man, who scares me just a little bit.  

*Note from Bella~ This story is the second book in a series. You can get the first book on all major retailers. (Precarious - Jokers' Wrath MC Book 1) This contains no cliffhanger and has a HEA. 18+

In darkness, we find danger. In danger, I find Beau.
Ash is a prison guard, she's tough, she's strong and she never backs away from a fight. She takes her job seriously, she takes her training seriously, and everything in her life goes as planned.
Until the day he is brought into the prison.

Deranged. Crazy. Psychotic.
All those words describe the infamous Krypt, but Ash suspects there's far more to the quiet man than meets the eye. Secrets are being hidden by the club, information is being kept under wraps. Krypt is silent for a reason. 
Ash is desperate to know that reason. 
Continually fighting, Krypt is transferred to a high security prison. Ash is in charge. She's always prepared, always alert. Not even her skills will stop the club from ambushing them and taking back Krypt. Only Ash ends up right in the middle of it. 
They take her, too.
Now she's stuck with a Motorcycle Club who are tougher than any prisoner she's ever laid eyes on. And they won't let her go. She's too much of a risk. Until the situation can be sorted, they send her and Krypt into the mountains together....alone. 
An epic, dangerous love will be built on the foundations of darkness.

~+~ Blog Tour & Review ~+~ Rock Addiction by Nalini Singh








A bad boy wrapped in a sexy, muscled, grown-up package might be worth a little risk…

Molly Webster has always followed the rules. After an ugly scandal tore apart her childhood and made her the focus of the media’s harsh spotlight, she vowed to live an ordinary life. No fame. No impropriety. No pain. Then she meets Zachary Fox, a tattooed bad boy rocker with a voice like whiskey and sin, and a touch that could become an addiction.

A one-night stand with the hottest rock star on the planet, that’s all it was meant to be…

Fox promises scorching heat and dangerous pleasure, coaxing Molly to extend their one-night stand into a one-month fling. After that, he’ll be gone forever, his life never again intersecting with her own. Sex and sin and sensual indulgence, all with an expiration date. No ties, no regrets. Too late, Molly realizes it isn’t only her body that’s become addicted to Fox, but her heart…






FOX HADN’T BECOME THE LEAD singer of one of the best-selling rock bands in history by being a shrinking violet. No, he went after what he wanted, no holds barred. And the raw promise he could feel between him and Molly? He had to know where it would lead, the need so strong he hadn’t felt anything like it since the day he’d figured out that music was his escape, the air in his lungs.
Which was why he was leaning against the wall beside Molly’s apartment at five that afternoon, a guitar by his side.
The elevator doors opened at a quarter after the hour, Molly going motionless two steps outside of it, the doors closing silently at her back. Yeah, she hadn’t expected him, but Fox was ready to work with that. Waiting patiently as she took a deep breath and completed the trek down the corridor, he drew in the scent of her, his gaze lingering on the fluttering pulse in her neck.
“How did you get past security?”
Fox smiled slowly at the blurted-out question, wondering if Molly knew how bad she was at hiding her emotions. He liked it, liked that he saw the real Molly, not an illusion she’d created to tempt him—not that she had to do anything but smile to tempt him. “I told you the security sucks.”
Unable to resist, he reached out to run his finger down one creamy cheek flushed with a mix of surprise, passion, and, he was certain, sweet, hot feminine anger. His guess was borne out when Molly unlocked her door with jittery hands and put down her handbag on one corner of the bench, her fingers trembling before she curled them into her palms. “You’re breaking the rules.”
“What rules?” Closing the door, he leaned back on it and willed her to face him. Much as he loved the shape of her from the back, he liked watching those expressive eyes whisper her mood to him.
Shoulders tight, she turned. “This was supposed to be a one-night stand.”
“Ah.” Folding his arms over the plain black of his T-shirt, he said, “How about a one-month stand instead?” He knew he had to play this exactly right. Molly was wary of him, and yeah, he could understand why. To have her in his life beyond a fleeting instant, he’d have to win her trust.
She jerked up her head. “What?”
“Why not? I like you. You like me.” He smiled—because the reason Molly had needed to jerk up her head was that she’d been staring at his chest. “Admit it.”
Sitting down on the bench, she began to unzip her boots, very obviously not looking at him. “You’re okay for a rock star.”
He wanted to bite her, then pet her until she was limp and languid in his arms. “We burn up together.” Deliberately modulating his voice—his instrument—for maximum effect, low and bedroom rough, he saw her fingers stutter on the zipper. “I’m here for a month. It’s an easy equation.”
When the words “Let me think about it” fell from her mouth, he thought she might’ve been as startled as he was, her lips parting on a slight gasp—as if to call back the declaration.





Zachery Fox is the lead singer of the band Schoolboy Choir and is everything one would expect, hot, tattooed, pierced, sinful singer. Molly Webster is a quiet librarian who keeps to herself due to a slew of insecurities that she can’t seem to overcome. One night their paths cross and well… the rest they say is history.
Fox is such a sweet and caring guy and his addiction to Molly is instantaneous, and they find themselves heading home for what Molly assumed would be just one naughty night with a sexy rock star. One night then becomes a month since neither want to part ways. Molly is afraid to be with Fox and have his stardom ricochet badly onto her and makes him promise once they split to never come looking for her again, she has been burned in the past and doesn’t want to go through it all again.  Fox however can’t keep away… Do they end up together? Go grab a copy of the book to find out!
This is the first book in the Schoolboy Choir Series and it’s off to a great start. This is also the first book by Nalini Singh that I have read and I applaud her for trying out a different genre than her normal Paranormal/Sci-fi fantasy.  I instantly loved Fox, he ends up being the total opposite of what one would expect from a wicked rocker. It took me a little while to warm up to Molly, I totally understand where she was coming from with the insecurities that she was battling but for a good amount of time I actually wanted to smack some sense into her. I was happy to see that Molly wasn’t a tiny little twig, it was more realistic in my opinion to have someone that was bigger be a heroine. The connection between the characters was scorching and the sexiness was at a level 1000! I enjoyed the interaction with the secondary characters and felt they were integrated seamlessly, that being said I will be waiting to read the next book in the series as soon as it comes out.
