INTO HER FANTASIES by ANGEL PAYNE - #RELEASEBLITZ

Title:  Into Her Fantasies
Series:  The Cimarron Series #3
Author:  Angel Payne
Release Date: December 16, 2016



She’s the I’ve-Got-This of Happy-Ever-After…until a perfect prince becomes her ultimate fantasy.

He’s just a client…
So Lucy Fava tells herself when arriving on the Island of Arcadia, desperate to save her wedding planning company by securing the year’s biggest bash: a double Cimarron wedding. But first she must impress the man holding the kingdom’s purse strings: Prince Shiraz Cimarron.

Beyond beautiful and unspeakably alpha, the enigmatic male ignites every drop of Lucy’s blood—and a flood of dark, dangerous fantasies. She vows to leave Arcadia as soon as possible, but when Mother Nature grounds her, she can’t resist a taste of her fiery desire for Shiraz.

It’s just a fling…
The words become Lucy’s mantra, even as she discovers the man beneath the three-piece suits, the soul hidden in his perfect body, the lover beyond his regal kisses. The dominant fantasy she’s craved her entire life…

It will change her forever.
When real-life pierces their passionate bubble, Lucy realizes how deeply seduction has become addiction, passion has turned into need…attraction has deepened to love. But Shiraz has promised to be his country’s hero by following through on a loveless marriage, meaning it’s time for Lucy to cut her losses and run. Should be easy. She’s done this a thousand times before.

Only never like this. 

Never while cutting out her heart at the same time. 

Note: Each book of The Cimarron Series can be read as a stand-alone story, though some readers may enjoy the continuity of secondary characters when reading the books in order. Every novel is a stand-alone story with a happy ending. 

Book 3 of the series is the explosive love story of Prince Shiraz Cimarron and headstrong American Lucina Fava…



Into Her Fantasies is the third book in the Cimarron series.  It is about the youngest Prince, Prince Shiraz and wedding planner Lucina.  Lucina's company is bidding on being the wedding planner for the joint wedding of Prince Evrest to Camellia and Prince Samsyn to Brooke.  Note:  To learn more about the other two Cimarron princes read the first two books in the series.  

While I have read both of the other Cimarron books I do think that Into Her Fantasies could be read as a standalone.  Lucina (or Lucy) doesn't know much about the history so it is summarized briefly by Shiraz.  The synopsis is done in a way that it wouldn't make you feel like you've missed out (but the other books are both great so I suggest reading them).

 All I can say is Shiraz, Shiraz, Shiraz.  He is hot.  He is gorgeous.  He is sexy.  He is Dominant.  AND he's a Prince.  Lucy is used to good looking men (she lives in L.A.), but Shiraz is like nothing she's ever seen before.  He is a fantasy.  He is Lucy's fantasy.  Lucy is somewhat jaded, snarky, and constantly horny.  It gets even worse when she first meets and gets starstruck by Shiraz.  

Both Lucy and Shiraz know that they shouldn't be together, but they can't resist.  

I loved this book.  I loved both Shiraz and Lucy and I loved them together.  I can't wait to read the next book in the series.  I give Into Her Fantasies FOUR AND A HALF STARS!

Hi there. I'm Angel: book lover, writing addict, hopeless romantic, pop culture geek and avid shoe lover.

A bit about me...

I've been hooked on books since I was a kid but it got worse in my twenties, when I discovered romances--the hotter, the better. Growing up in Southern California, with lots of surfer manliness surrounded me, was certainly a good boost for reading about delicious alpha guys and the women who adore them. When I learned I had a knack for telling these stories too, I guess you could say I was doomed--though my path toward romance novelist took a few detours via a concert-reviewing gig for my college newspaper (free show tickets...backstage passes...that was a no-brainer), artist interviews for a Beverly Hills dance music mag, personal assistant work for a record producer, dance club disc jockey, and a lot of fun in the hospitality industry.

These days, I still live in California, and have found an amazing alpha guy of my own who was brave enough to marry me. We live on a street that looks like Brigadoon, with our beautiful daughter. I have the best life ever, and never forget to thank the Big Guy Upstairs for it, either.

WILD CARD by ANGEL PAYNE - #BOOKREVIEW


wildcard

Title:  Wild Card
Author: Angel Payne
Release Date: October 18, 2016

  

**This WILD Boys novella was originally part of the ONE NIGHT IN VEGAS limited release box set**

White lace and promises…

Jen Thorne is more than ready to help her best friend tie the knot, sumptuous Vegas style—until she shows up at the rehearsal and catches sight of a surprise guest to the festivities. Sam Mackenna, a Scottish RAF pilot on loan to the Air Force for cross-training, has been the object of her secret erotic fantasies for months. But even with romance in the air, a hunk like him is hardly likely to choose a geek like her.

A kiss for luck…

When Sam and she are unexpectedly alone, the gray-eyed warrior entices Jen to share her deepest fantasies—then throws the wildest card of all into the mix. He wants to the chance to make as many of them come true before dawn’s light.

One night. The man of her dreams. A wild card worth playing, or an invitation to the biggest disaster of them all…
What if her heart gets shuffled into the playing deck?

Wild Card was a very quick read.  As it was originally part of an anthology you would think it would be almost too quick, but it wasn't.  Wild Card is the story of Scottish RAF pilot Sam and US Air Force employee Jen.  While Jen isn't in the Air Force she works for them.  Sam is "on loan" to the US Air Force.  They meet and form a friendship.  But both are secretly attracted to each other.

Sam, like many of Angel Payne's lead men, is all Dom, and Jen is submissive.  While she hasn't explored her submissive side she is definitely interested.  While the story is short I got a feel for both characters and really liked both.  They were hot and steamy, but still sweet and romantic.  The ending was particularly sweet.  

Wild Card was a good, quick read if you're looking for light BDSM with an accent.  I give it FOUR STARS!

USA Today bestselling romance author Angel Payne has been reading and writing her entire life, though her love for romances began in junior high, when writing with friends on "swap stories" they'd trade between classes. Needless to say, those stories involved lots of angst, groping, drama, and gooey kissing.

She began getting a paycheck for her writing in her twenties, writing record reviews for a Beverly Hills-based dance music magazine. Some years, various entertainment industry gigs, and a number of years in the hospitality industry later, Angel returned to the thing she loves the most: creating character-based romantic fiction. Along the way, she also graduated with two degrees from Chapman University in Southern California, taking departmental honors for English, before writing five historical romances for Kensington and Bantam/Doubleday/Dell.

Angel found a true home in writing contemporary-based romances that feature high heat and high concepts, focusing on memorable alpha men and the women who tame them. She has numerous book series to her credit, including the Kinky Truth series, the Secrets of Stone series (with Victoria Blue), the W.I.L.D. Boys of Special Forces series, and the acclaimed Cimarron series. Temptation Court, a new series being launched through the Dark Nights Discovery project, debuts in 2016.

Angel still lives in Southern California, where she is married to her soul mate and lives on a street that looks like Brigadoon, with their awesome daughter and Lady Claire, the dog with impeccable manners. When not writing, she enjoys reading, pop culture, alt rock, cute shoes, enjoying the outdoors, and being a gym rat.
