I got a google alert surprise today. Two of my books received reviews from Passionate Reviews. One for Bid For Love and one for Pleasure After The Pain. I’m so thrilled. I thank Passionate Reviews for these two wonderful reviews. It makes me so very happy.

I throughly enjoyed Bid For Love. It is a sweet romance that has you rooting for both Nico and Jeff the entire story and wishing for friends as true as Fran and Audrey.
Like many of us, Nico considers herself plain. She compares herself unfavorably to her buxom co-workers and other women. Jeff is extremely shy when around Nico. He doesn’t consider himself that special and has a hard time believing he was listed as one of the ten sexiest men. I found myself wanting them to talk to each other some how and get together. I was kept on the edge of my seat as situation after situation happened to the both of them.
I laughed out loud at several of Ms. Chase’s descriptions. Her whit is razor edged and shone throughout this story. I especially loved when she spoke about wanting variety and visiting the local ice cream parlor. There are several places that I’ve also wondered about. With the detailed descriptions in this story, I now know all about speed dating and bachelor auctions. My heart was in my throat during the entire auction.
Savannah Chase’s first book, Bid For Love, is an enjoyable read that I heartily recommend.
Ms. Chase proves herself again with a very hot, vividly detailed short story revolving around tattoos.
I felt that I was inside the tattoo parlor with Serena as she looked around the store and through the binder that Jack had given her. I felt the cringe from Serena when Jenny moaned with the first prick of the needle. When Serena walked out after seeing the design of the stranger with the blue eyes, I could not believe it. I kept shouting in my mind for her to do it. I was so glad when Serena went back to the tattoo parlor. Even though Jack tries to warn her off of the design she picked, Serena was determined to get her tattoo.
Getting inked was made to be an erotic event. The descriptions of what went on before, during and after were fantastic. I could totally immerse myself in this story and be Serena. After the inking, the story really got hot.
For an erotic little pick me up, I definitely recommend Pleasure After The Pain.
