Author: Sophia Karlson
Genre: Erotic Romance

Blurb

James Sinclair keeps his life uncomplicated. His job as a trader is intense, he travels a lot and everything else must fit in or buzz off. Relationships don’t make a blip on his radar, and the world is really better off without that thing called love.

When James returns to his Paris apartment from a business trip to find a beautiful, unknown brunette in his bed, his cage of perfect existence is rattled. Said brunette turns out to be his little sister’s best friend, there by his own unwitting invitation.

Mila Johnson has done a lot of growing up since James had last seen her, and what’s a man to do but to claim his side of the bed, with a whisper that the situation is total fantasy material?

Mila is in Paris seeking inspiration for her first solo art exhibition. James’s unexpected arrival adds another dimension to her stay, especially since her teenage fantasy is still larger than life and slipping between the sheets with her.

One night of fooling around opens a Pandora’s box which Mila wants to pry open wider, whereas James wants to keep the lid on—Mila is a sweet innocent and no way is he going to expose her to anything, especially not to the real James Sinclair.

As he free-falls into complication territory, James struggles to keep control over his past and his heart. When his ex-girlfriend arrives out of the blue, hell might just be a place where he’d rather be.






Excerpt

James appeared in the entrance hall and Mila’s heart skipped a beat at seeing him. He looked ruffled, his tie loose around his neck and his hair disheveled as if he’d dragged his fingers through it too many times.
She sat straighter, brushing the tendrils of hair from her face. “Hi.”
He dropped his laptop bag at the entrance and tossed his keys into the bowl on the table. “Hi.” He closed in on her, and with each step he took, her heartbeat edged up a notch. By the time he stood at her feet and she had to lean back to see his face, her pulse was racing.
“Rough day at the office?” she breathed, their earlier sexting running on repeat in her mind.
“You could say that.”
She looked down so that he couldn’t see her grin, but her eyes came level with a budding bulge in his trousers and she had to look even lower. There was a rustle of fabric and with a sigh, he dropped his jacket to the floor. She looked up to see him tugging at his tie. He unknotted it slowly, intentionally, and her stomach did a slow warm-up at seeing his fingers, the memory of him licking her juices off them earlier as vivid as if he’d done so a second ago. The tie landed on top of his jacket.
“We have unfinished business.” He stared down at her as he started to roll up his sleeves.
She shifted in the chair, sudden heat crashing through her at the look in his eyes. Yes, we do.
“Your business dinner?” she whispered. She was in it deep this time.
He took his time to finish rolling up his sleeves. Every cell in her beat in a frantic tick-tock. She had no idea what he was getting up to, but within her, there was an unruly reawakening of this morning’s unfulfilled desire.
“Cancelled.” He placed his hands on the armrests and bent over her. She wanted to lean back, to get away from his gaze that didn’t break with hers, but she was trapped. His lips were inches from hers, and hers felt dry in anticipation that he might kiss her.
She ran her tongue across her lips, her breathing stalling as he bent over to run his lips across her temple. At any moment he could slip lower, to her lips.
But instead of searching for her mouth, he grazed her ear. “But that’s a good thing because now I can take care of other… issues.”
She closed her eyes as a heated wetness gushed between her legs. “What issues?”
“Someone called me a pussy tease.” He nibbled her earlobe and she dropped her head to the side to give him access to her neck. “What does that even mean, Mila?”






Author Bio


I've always been drawn to the magical escape of books and the journeys they take us on without leaving the comfort of home. I’ve been fortunate to have traveled to France, and this book was inspired by a visit to Paris some years ago. We were walking in some narrow alley in the 1st arrondissement of Paris, when I noticed a door with a single plaque with Club PrivĂ© written on it. My imagination got going, and at some point, things got pretty wild. I’ve wanted to write for a long time, but life had plans of its own. I’m grateful to finally have time to write, and love writing contemporary and erotic romance in far-flung settings. Taking readers on a journey of their own with my books is part of the plot. Bon voyage!

I never planned on meeting her, I also don't plan on letting her go. I'll do whatever it takes to show her that I'm more than just the name, and will stop at nothing to make her mine.

Oh hell no! We’re not canceling these plans. I will make this work. I will get her and Randy on track to walking down that freaking isle. I am getting to go on a bachelorette weekend vacation to party with my best friend! This is happening whether Mags and Randy like it or not.

He climbed onto the foot of my king-sized bed, handed me my black coffee, and set out the food carefully. "How about breakfast in bed and a movie?" He pulled Almost Famous out of his jacket pocket and tossed me a smirk. The smell of the bitter coffee made my mood lift a little, and I peeked out from under my blankets.
 
There is no way I can turn down that smile, my favorite movie, and breakfast bribery.
 
"How could I say no to an offer like that?" I jumped out of my bed, tousled my hair a little in an attempt to tame it slightly, and put all of the pillows back onto the bed while Walker started the movie and threw his black leather jacket onto the floor.
 
We climbed under the covers, cuddling down to have an awesome breakfast with good company. Walker’s shoulder cradled my head as I slurped coffee from the plastic lid and let my eyes wander over his muscular, tattooed arms. I had been with him and Randy for almost every one of their ink sessions. I could imagine the swallows on Walker’s chiseled chest that he got about a month after we met. He was handsome and tall, and he had an erotic stare that could make any girl wet within seconds. I never knew why he just jumped around from girl to girl, not even able to define monogamy. Randy had always said that being promiscuous was just in Walker’s nature, and I never questioned it further.
 
It was comforting to have someone fill the other side of the bed. We watched the movie, reciting every line, and munched away on the glazed treats. When the credits started to roll, Walker pulled me to him tighter; he could always tell when the tears were about to start. I breathed in his mix of salty tears and men's cologne, a smell that had become a little too comforting to me recently. We lay silently while the credits played out, the movie soundtrack hushed in the background of our embrace.
 
When the room went silent, I buried my face into Walker’s chest a little harder. "You'll never know how much it means to me that you come here every week," I choked out, unable to contain my emotions any longer. His thumb battled the tears cascading down my exposed cheek.
 
Walker’s big green eyes were soft, a look rarely seen from the hard-ass country boy. Knowing that made his kind face and words mean so much more to me. "I'll never miss our Sunday tradition. It's the best part of my week. You still don't know how much it helps me too."
 
The sincerity of his words spread over Walker’s face, and again, he stunned me. His chiseled jawline, jet-black hair, and olive skin made his light eyes stand out, and when he was vulnerable to emotion, it made everything that much more handsome. 
 
 
 
 
You want to know more about me? Well, let's see...

I am just an average twenty-something following my dreams.  I have a full time "day job" and by night I am an author.  I guess you could say that writing is like my super power (I always wanted one of those).  I am the lover of wine, sushi, football and the ocean; that is when I am not wrapped up in the literary world.  

A portion of all my profits are donated to The Marcie Mazzola Foundation.

Our secrets define us.
I’ve run far to escape my past. Eight years and almost two thousand miles lie between me and the horror that consumes me.

But when those secrets come home to roost, I have to decide what I’m willing to risk for my happily ever after. When the evil I left behind finds me, I have to choose. Will I succumb to the girl I was and crumble under the pressure? Or can I break the cycle and finally be free to fly?

review

5+

Trying to gather my emotions here..

Holy. Bloody. Hell. I am still on a book hangover and to be honest, I don't think I'll be able to get rid of my emotional connection with FREE TO FLY any time soon. Not having any expectations, I was purely zoning in on how intriguing the synopsis sounded. Then begins the process of trying to read a story at every free time possible, with a hectic atmosphere all around you BUT it had to be done. This is one of those books that you wish you knew you could have saved those spare couple of hours without distractions because Morgan Reeves is a sneaky author. With he debut novel, I could not understand how in the world I was so addictive to a mere story that I thought would simply be another romance with a little erotic element to it..

How bloody wrong was I.

This is your one true warning: DO NOT proceed with Zoe + Logan's story without promising yourself that you will try to keep sane throughout and if possible after you're done. Also, make sure you are not distracted IN ANY WAY POSSIBLE. Trust me, you'll be thanking this review's warning later. 

Ok. Now. How do you review a book that touched so many emotional triggers and made sure to have left me a blubbering mess of an idiot that forgets to have tissues and some form of a glass of wine when dealing with THIS type of story? Ugh. If only I knew. It was WORTH EVERY LAST TEAR and near HEARTBREAK.

I loved Zoe and Logan from the very beginning. That doesn't happen often as I tend to unintentionally find little and sometimes big flaws in both main characters. Not here though. Not one bit and that's so damn hard to admit as I don't want it to seem as if I'm sugarcoating anything - ever. 

It was just so easy to feel connected with a girl who has a mask of strength above the broken pieces that are yet to be picked up and somehow mended back together.

And with Logan, firstly, how can you not be interested in reading a little more about that sexy, handsome as hell and all things "sweet baby jesus" type of personality? He is definitely the type of character that can only be formed in books, though that might not be 100% true. Morgan Reeves wrote his character in such a clever and precise way that thinking he will be popping out of the pages any second was a near possibility.All I am trying to say, the author wrote him in such a way that it made me WANT and NEED to find my very own Logan.. 

Sigh. The struggles of perfect book boyfriends are 130% real and almost painful to bare.

Back to the story and trying to get my head out of the gutter ( ;P ), we follow a road where one life is trying to live, trying to become a beating heart WITH a soul that isn't always so clouded with grey.. A life that wants to move away from a past that has done far too much damage to ever be considered fixable.

Then, we have another life that is trying to perfect his way of knowing of what he wants with what he should be wanting or doing.. Constantly trying to live in a successful life, he finds himself trying to figure out if her life will finally bring his very own to were it belongs..

DARK.

EMOTIONAL.

SUSPENSEFUL.

DEEP.

SOULFUL.

HEARTBREAKING.

FUNNY.

SEXY.

TOUCHING.

CONSUMING.

ADDICTIVE.

PURE.

FREE TO FLY is a story that will bring out a whole new you, or at least, as it did with mine, it will without a doubt become an addictive touch upon your soul.. I know that might sound cheesy, but you not fall head over heels with a book that is something completely different to what you might have read before. No not read, experienced. Free to fly is an EXPERIENCE with very dark and tear jerking struggles all of which reveal a story that with it's many twists and turns, will have your heart thanking you.. even though it will be broken in half.

Better a broken happy heart than one that consumed a story without a second glance at the emotions that it didn't feel. 

Thank you SO MUCH Morgan Reeves for an ARC of a gorgeously dark story that I wont ever be able to forget. It touched my messed up soul so it will surely do at least that to everyone else that has their hands on it. I cannot believe this was your debut novel!! Holy hell!! You have some talent, like no other. 


Thank you again for creating a perfect emotional characters that have given me so much to think about. Loved it beyond words..

xx
I took the envelope, and our fingertips brushed. My breath caught. It was unbelievable that such a small touch could affect me so much, but there I stood, my heart pounding in my chest and a heated flush working its way up my neck. He was standing way too close to me, and I swayed as lust hit me full force.
He caught my hand before I could jerk away and brushed his thumb across my knuckles in a soft gesture that left my skin tingling. Emotions flitted through me so fast I couldn’t make sense of them. An ache started in my chest, and I searched his tender expression, confused. How had we gone from jesting to this?
I was in way over my head with this man.
I closed my eyes as the enormity of the situation hit me. I couldn’t pretend this was all about sex anymore. Not with his affection shining through so clearly.
Just as I was about to tell him to let go, he sucked in a ragged breath and stepped away before clearing his throat.
I opened my eyes and stared at him, bewildered.
“Have a good night, Zoe,” he said and went back to sit at his desk.
I almost asked him what happened, but I decided against it. I’d asked for this, hadn’t I? He was respecting a rule I had put in place.
As desire pulsed through me, I cursed my own stupid rule. I was officially an idiot. I sighed as I fled the office in sexual frustration, not even bothering with a goodbye.
Morgan Reeves currently lives in the middle of Iowa, surrounded by lots of cornfields and people with a fanatic love for college football. Her heart, however, will always belong to California. She has two Minions to call her own and a husband who may or may not think she’s insane. Morgan loves to read romance in any genre, and she loves to chat books. She also loves Facebook, so feel free to stalk her at https://www.facebook.com/authormorganreeves or add her as a friend on her personal page. She’d love to hear from you! Free to Fly is her first published book, and is the first in a series of interconnected standalones.

Excerpt

“Are you going to be a good girl?”

“Yes.”

“Do you still think I’m nice?”

She swallows and thinks about her answer for a second. “Only when you want to be.”

“Exactly. And you don’t get to decide anything. You don’t get to manipulate me. I won’t allow it, so don’t try it ever again.” I grip her ass so tight that she squirms and my fingers mark her skin red.

Her face glows as I lean in to take a whiff of her scent. Her face is much cleaner than before, and all the make-up has rinsed off. She looks pure … less tainted than hours before. Every passing second her shifting behavior affects me. Changes me. It forces me to look at her in more ways than just the one consumed by hatred.

With the water cascading down her beautiful body, puckered nipples, and pink lips, I get the sudden urge to take what belongs to me.

So, I do. I kiss her, pressing my lips softly onto hers, marking her as mine. She doesn’t fight, doesn’t even flinch as I kiss her gently, my tongue dipping out to lick her sweet, icy-cold lips. I let my tongue roam free across her mouth and push inside, forcing her to open up and let me in. She doesn’t resist; instead, her tongue finds mine, and her lips cling to me. The cold doesn’t suppress the warmth flowing to my cock, which grows thicker every second. All I can think of is kissing her, fucking her every fucking second of the day …, and then ruining her for life.

I step into the shower with her, increasing the temperature further until it’s warm enough to heat up her body. She’s still shivering, as I press her firmly into my warm body. She makes herself small to fit between my arms, as if I’m a radiator she’s cuddling up to. How cute. I just want to fuck her with my tongue.

Her taste is exhilarating, and I can’t fucking get enough of tasting her, her mouth latching onto mine with equal wantonness. Her body is quickly regaining its normal temperature, and her natural flush reappears on her face, although I’m not exactly sure if that’s because of the shower or because I’m grabbing her ass and pushing her body against mine.

The urge to turn her around and bend her over gets bigger and bigger as she pants into my mouth, desperate for air … desperate for more kisses. I let my hands roam free over her body, cupping her tit and giving it a nice squeeze. My mouth silences her first moan, as I taste her willingness to finally submit. And, oh … how I will make her submit.
