S.E.X. Review~ Sin in Blue Jeans by Dakota Trace

Sin in Blue Jeans (Bad Apples Book 4) by [Dakota Trace]"Sin in Blue Jeans" is a standalone novel in the "Bad Apples" series.

The Big Apple is known to chew up people and spit them out...
An ex-con and bad boy, Mason Adams has worked hard for the last five years to put his past behind him and thinks he's finally begun to succeed.

Then walks in a fleeting encounter from his past. Ryleigh was supposed to have been a one night stand - she shouldn't still be haunting his dreams - let alone showing up on his work site.

She prefers blue jeans and a hardhat to dress blues and uniforms...

Ryleigh Fagin may love her overbearing Irish family, but they all seem to think they know what's best for her - no matter how many times she tells them she's a grown woman.

Then back into her life walks the ultimate sin in blue-jeans, Mason Adams.
Not only does he have two strikes against him in her family eyes: he's an ex-con construction worker, he's about to rack up a third when it comes to fraternizing with his boss's niece.

Don't miss any of the stories in the Bad Apples series. Bad Apples is a series featuring five steamy contemporary romance tales bringing together the bad boys of New York City with the love of their lives who they are willing to do anything for… even change.

Sin in Blue Jeans by Dakota Trace was part of the Bad Apples series (each book written by a different author). This is the first book I read in the anthology and each is a stand-alone.

Mason was an ex-con fresh out of jail when he met a woman at a bar that struck his fancy. A brief encounter and a co.. block drove him from the mystery woman and the hell out of dodge. Some years later, the voice attached to said woman strolled into his office trailer at the construction site he worked for in New York City.

Ryleigh was a safety inspector, part of a construction company dynasty, and a female in a family of law enforcement. Her one-night stand starred in many of her subsequent fantasies until he came to life again, before her eyes.

I enjoyed the book and I am a fan of many of Ms. Trace’s work, but there were also some reservations. I am not a fan of the daddy romcom and a so-so fan of domestic discipline. I know this is a personal choice in reading material, but it is not at the top of my list. 

Additionally, as a fan of Ms. Trace and knowing how well her writing can draw a reader into the story, I found Sin in Blue Jeans very reserved- something was missing. Maybe it was the BDSM fire I know the author so well for. I will assume (and I may be wrong) that her way of infusing some of what she is known best for was the insertion of domestic discipline. Unfortunately, it did not work for this reader. The story seemed forced and reined in.

The introduction of an ex nun who has no qualms about talking about hot and heavy sex or who takes in bad boys and helps straighten them out seemed like an afterthought. There one minute, gone the next. I wondered if she was needed.

All in all, if you are looking for a quick one-hour read at a great price, pick up Sin in Blue Jeans. Dakota Trace is one of my favorite authors and you can never go wrong reading her works- Sin in Blue Jeans was just not my cup of tea.

S.E.X. Review~ Hands On by Dakota Trace

Single on Valentine’s Day. What a horrible thought – well not really as far as Seraphina Blackburn is concerned. It’s just another commercial holiday done up by jewelry and chocolate companies to sell tons of over-priced crap. She ought to know, considering she makes a living as a high-priced ad executive, who just finished a multi-million-dollar ad campaign for one of said companies. All she’s looking forward to this Valentine’s Day is her annual appointment with the professional dominant who will turn her bottom rosier than any dang valentine – no strings attached – particularly romantic ones. All she has to do is to arrange her date. The only thing stopping her is Caden King – her new sexier-than-hell-but-nearly-ten-years-younger-than-her’ assistant. 

Caden King didn’t just graduate at the top of his class from Princeton for nothing. He might be starting out as some ice queen’s lackey, but he had the determination and the drive to make it to the top – including blatant eavesdropping when the opportunity arose. Much to his surprise, his frosty boss isn’t as bitchy as he originally assumed – just a bratty submissive who needs a firm hand to remind her of her place. While he might not be the boss at the work, in the bedroom he ruled. Seraphina was about to be educated about what happens to subs who ignore their own needs - with the help of Single Status, she was about to receive some hands-on training she’d never forget. 

This Valentine's Day being single is all the rage. At least that's what the website, Single Status says and they're not trying to set you up with your special someone. But, instead, give you the time of your life. Sign up a family member, a friend or join yourself. Single Status will send an anonymous letter with details of an activity for the day.



Dakota Trace has done it again with her Valentine short and HFN, Hands On. What’s a girl to do when she’s a tiger in the board room but the desire to submit in the bedroom runs hard beneath the surface? The only thing left is to seek out Single Status for a submissively good time of her life~ even if it’s only for one day.

Seraphina was a well-rounded character brought to life by Ms. Trace and her ability to write strong women into her stories. A sense of realism permeated throughout the story as the main character sought to assuage her kink, all the while being true to her nature both as the highly sought after ad exec and the wish to submit after lights out.

Caden, a member of Seraphina’s team, and a dominant with a ‘thing’ for the lovely exec queen, knew just where his needs were best laid~ assisting Seraphina find her submissiveness through the help of Single Status.

The twists and turns of the sexily led scavenger hunt added a new dimension to the short HFN, allowing enough information to be divulged while holding interest. Furthermore, the doors were led open for the author to continue the storyline by delving more into the lives of Seraphina and Caden. Not all tales can be told in one hundred pages or less, as life is not always wrapped in a red bow. But, Ms. Trace left enough on the table to entice her readers to return for additional installments. The characters were real, flawed, and relatable.

Another winner by the queen of sexy.

S.E.X. Review~ Obscene Ecstasy by Dakota Trace

This match should be perfect or so Calypso thinks...

Screw what they say about revenge being served best cold. She was out to prove there would be a man out there who could keep up with her. When her ex-fiancĂ©e tells her that she was too much for him in the sack, Kristy Daniels is beyond pissed. So after giving her ring back, she heads for the newest, and kinkiest resort in the Caribbean. Surely at a place like Club Ecstasy Caicos, she will find a stud – or two to make her forgot.

Lowell McCormick has always possessed a high sex drive - to the point he’s lost lovers because of his constant state of arousal for both men and women. So after his last lover threw in the towel, he turned to Ms. Calypso’s erotic resorts. Surely there was someone out there who needed sex as much as him. Once he meets Oliver Stoddard, a fellow guest, and has one incredible night with him, he’s in a hedonist heaven. That’s until they set their sites on the newest arrival to the resort – a woman who pushes both of their cocks into overdrive, but isn’t quite the easy lay they expect.

Has Calypso misjudged this time? Or will Oliver and Lowell be able to overcome Kristy’s prickly exterior and win her battered heart?




Obscene Ecstasy, Calypso’s Choice 3 was a sensual and sexy read. Dakota Trace always delivers a well written story with wonderfully imaginative characters. Lowell, Oliver, and Kristy fit that bill.

Once again the vixen Calypso had a lover’s wager with her pirate men, Warren and Davvy- create another match at her exclusive resort and reap the benefits of her doing when she succeeded. Succeeding placed her one step closer to her goal and the “arms” of Warren and Davvy wrapped around each other.

Club Ecstasy afforded Lowell and Oliver the opportunity to fulfill their hedonistic fantasies of having another being able to keep up with their sexual drive. Kristy, also with a voracious appetite, longed for a lover to keep her on the edge and in a blissfully orgasmic state. What she didn’t bargain for were two men willing to fulfill her every desire and need, if she was willing to submit to her fantasies.

What I enjoy about this series, is the connection Ms. Calypso has to the duo Davy Jones and the connection she created with her clients at Club Ecstasy. Every wish was realized and executed with satisfaction. The sexual encounters were imaginative and highly erotic, as Ms. Trace delivered spice and lustfulness.

The Calypso Choice books are not for the faint of heart. The language is crude, the sex mind blowing, not the prim-proper cup of tea. Be ready to feel this book in your marrow, and enjoy a post-orgasm glass of wine.

S.E.X. Review~ Tempted by Ecstasy by Dakota Trace

Calypso’s agenda continues when a lovely widow contacts her…

Michelle Cross, or Shelli as her friends call her, is stuck in a rut. With all her kids off at college, this widowed mother splits her time between her charities, and lusting after men – well two men specifically: her late husband’s best friend, James, and her much younger gardener, Doyle. Desperate to resist temptation, she turns to an online dating, but fails horribly. It’s not until James suggests Club Ecstasy, that she decides to try one more time to exorcise the sexy pair from her every fantasy. Besides what could be better than Christmas in West Caicos? 

After making his fortune in the dot-com era, reclusive boy-genuis, Doyle Garcia took up gardening and found his new calling. He loves to get his hands dirty, and the icing on his Tia Roselina’s cake? It also allows him to tempt the luscious Widow Cross into his bed. Unfortunately, he’s not the only one with eyes for her. While he’d been known to share fishing holes with James Redding, could he also share the luscious widow with his friend? Only time will tell when James approaches him with a plan to seduce Shelli – all it will take is a couple first class trips to Club Ecstasy, and keeping his hands off James. The first will be easy? But the second, not so much – because if he finds Shelli attractive, James is temptation incarnate. Too bad he doesn’t realize he’s about to get a little help from a goddess who swears that there are no lines when it comes to no holds barred sex and love. 


Dakota Trace hit it out of the park with Calypso’s newest adventure Tempted by Ecstasy.  Widow Shelli was in lust with two very different men- her late husband’s best friend and the stunningly handsome and somewhat younger gardener. Unbeknownst to Shelli, James and Doyle already shared a past, so moving in on Shelli, through the help of Ms. Calypso, was just what the doctor ordered.

Fantasy came to life as Shelli met her uninhibited partners at the beautiful Club Ecstasy where the three set every available surface on fire and every whim became unadulterated.

The stigma Shelli began with, concerning her lust for two men, gave way to a delectable read as Ms. Trace forged ahead and wove Shelli’s insecurities into triumphs. James and Doyle were strong and handsome characters, soon learned they needed each other as much as they needed their woman.

LOVED the fantasy interrogation! What a different and innovative way to “get the information” James and Doyle sought from the not-so-prim and proper Shelli.

The innovative sex scenes were lusty and sexy. Ms. Trace left no stone unturned when she broiled the pages of my e-reader- descriptors that would make anyone blush.

Additionally, the back story of Calypso, Warren, and Davvy continued in Calypso’s plot to create her own threesome with her men of the Flying Dutchmen.

Sexy run amok as Dakota Trace led us on an adventure of…

S.E.X. Review~ Twice the Chance, Twice the Ecstasy by Dakota Trace

Calypso has been given a task…

Divorcee, Eryka Demonte, wants to find the sexual gratification that had been lacking in her marriage. So she’s willing to try anything, including signing up to meet two potential lovers at what used to be an abandoned resort in West Caicos. Now run by the reclusive Ms. Calypso, Club Ecstasy Caicos boasts of the most lavish accommodations and sinful temptations. Eyrka just prays the resort’s owner knows her business, because Eryka’s in desperate need of someone with the right touch.

Business partners and lovers, Luca Reed and Dre Bennet are anxious to celebrate their upcoming anniversary. Together for nearly twenty years, they want something special…and naughty. Dre thinks he’s found it when he receives a mysterious email from a Ms. Calypso. She’s preparing to open her newest exotic resort and would like them to come and test out the amenities. Eager for a tropical vacation complete with a beautiful woman, both men agree, never expecting they’ve been set up by a matching making Goddess with an agenda of her own. 

Warning: 
While this book is a highly edited and expanded re-release of the book (+15000 new words) with the same title that Dakota published in 2014 with Excessica Publishing, she hopes you'll enjoy visiting the familiar characters with a slightly different twist. 




Twice the Chance, Twice the Ecstasy was an erotic experience~ and if you’ve never had a fantasy of two hot men lusting after one woman, damn! you missed the boat. There was NOTHING sweet about this book and everything HOT.

Two stories unfolded as Calypso made a bargain with Warren and Davvy- the two men who made up the persona Davvy Jones- create human love matches in order to keep in their good favor. Calypso agreed to the terms, but simultaneously turned the tables on lover Warren in order to help fulfill Davvy’s unspoken fantasy.

In order to begin her task, Calypso casted her eyes on married couple Luca and Dre and the lovely, yet unattached Eryka.

Dakota Trace delivered unadulterated sex and bliss as Luca and Dre engaged in carnal activities with the repressed and very horny Eryka, on Ms. Calypso’s newest resort, Club Ecstasy in the West Caicos.

From beginning to end, this read provided erotica at its finest and in true Dakota Trace fashion. Imagery abound, Ms. Trace has the uncanny ability to transport the reader into a scene, creating a voyeuristic tendency and a fire in your loins. A nice chilled glass of wine was in order to make it through this hedonistically delivered story of unbridled sex.

Dre and Luca complimented each other with a synergy of sexual desire. Add the enigmatic Eryka, with a gusto for life and a sexual appetite in need of exposing, and no surface was safe. Their coupling, sexual frenzy, and shouts subdued the nature which inhabited the island.

Ms. Trace never failed to meld kinky with romantic. Run, don’t walk to get your copy of Twice the Chance, Twice the Ecstasy. But be warned. Serious sex awaits which may leave you quivering and reaching for your favorite toy or a willing mate.

S.E.X. Review~ Benevolent Master by Dakota Trace

Single mom, Alyce O'Connell is a desperate woman. With her thesis almost complete on the intricate relationships between dominants and submissives she thinks she’s found a way to better her and daughter’s life - until her adviser won't sign off on it. Dr. Gylberte insists that Alyce needs some actual in 'the field' experience. While she can't believe the woman is going to withhold her approval until Alyce has experienced at least a few weeks in the role of a dominant or submissive, Alyce is willing to do anything to get it - including begging the man at the door of New Beginnings to help her. 

Kaleb Terzis loves his life. He not only gets to help kids by running one of the most popular youth art centers in Napa Valley, he also works part time as a Dominant at New Beginnings with several of his friends. He's footloose and free - content to play the field of willing submissives, until a desperate woman comes into the club, all in the name of research. Even as he’s prepared to hand off Alyce to Master Ethan, he changes his mind when Alyce shivers at his touch and turns those needy eyes his way. Attracted to the cool beauty despite her resemblance to his ex wife, he takes her on - determined to prove that under her impersonal demeanor is a woman who needs to submit. 

He just never expects her to turn the tables on him… 




Benevolent Master by Dakota Trace was a sexy and lustful read. As a fan of Ms. Trace, I flocked to the newest addition in the Doms of Napa Valley series.

Kaleb and Alyce were sophistically written (although I had a hard time connecting with Kaleb at the start- he rubbed me the wrong way with his smug attitude). But that changed quickly with the author’s masterful writing and storytelling.

Alyce’s daughter, was craftfully developed- a child with autism, Ms. Trace hit the mark in her research. This sweet child tugged at my heartstrings and made me want to throttle anyone hellbent on hurting her.

The chemistry between Kaleb and Alyce skyrocketed throughout with witty dialogue and steamy BDSM scenes. The sex was exquisite, so grab a glass of wine before sitting down to read this tasty morsel.

Kudos Ms. Trace for delivering another winner.

S.E.X. Spotlight & Scavenger Hunt~ Thanksgiving in Napa~ Dakota Trace

Hi all! I’d first like to thank Ms. Evelise for allowing me to take over her blog for the day. Thanksgiving is around the corner and I don’t know about you but I’m getting excited to make my favorite dishes for my family.  In fact  I promised Alyce, the heroine of Benevolent Master, that I would make  my family recipe for pumpkin pie, for her and her daughter - and to share with the new man in her life, if she chooses.  *shrugs*  We’re talking homemade pumpkin pie piled high with whipped cream...

“You’re not making that confounded pie again, slave!  I want my fudge! You promised!”  

*groans*  Excuse me, while I go and deal with my whip wielding, dominatrix of a muse, Livvy. She just loves to making my life a living….well, difficult if you get the picture.  *sigh*  I keep telling her I will make her some peanut butter fudge when Christmas gets closer, and that Thanksgiving is for pumpkin pie…just ask my sister.  LOL  

“We'll, see about that!”  *clanking noises*

I wonder if I should be worried about that.  *huge crash*  Yep. I better go see what mischief Livvy is getting into now.  *grumbles about muses that need to be spanked*

“If anyone gets spanked here, it’s you, slave.”  *whips her flogger around while holding a bulging plastic sack of items*

An uneasy feeling fills me. Umm, exactly what are you doing?  

*grins evilly*  “Can’t make pie without these things.”  

*prays for patience*  Please give them back, Livvy.  

*shakes head and dances out of reach*  “Nope not until you make me my fudge!”  

*Hold up hands*  Come on, Livvy, don’t do this!  Alyce is counting on me to make that pie for her.

*laughs*  “No fudge, no pie.  I’m sure the readers will agree that Peanut butter  fudge is ten times better than pie and see my way of things..”

Not if I bribe them with a really cool prize.  *turns to readers*  What  do you say?  Want to help me round up my missing things from my ornery muse?  Those who help will be entered to  win a really cool basket  of goodies.

*stomps foot*  “They don't  want none of your damned swag, slave!!!”

I bet they will when they find out that I’ll throw in signed print copies of all three Doms of Napa books, along with that Flogger I just finished making….

*eyes widened, then narrow*  “That’s not fair! I told you I wanted it!”  

Too bad!  If you can hold my stuff hostage I can give away the flogger.

“You wouldn’t!”

Care to try me?  *lunges for the sack*

*RIPPP!*  Items spill all over floor.

“Bad slave!”  *drops to knees to gather up items*   “For that I’m giving them all away!”    *stomps away*

*reluctant grin*  Guess you know what that means?  Looks like we’re on a scavenger hunt - again!  When will that muse of mine learn? Readers love a good scavenger hunt and -.  *trips and nearly falls on face*   WHOA!   
Well it looks like we got a head start… *grins and holds up rolling pin*   here’s your first item. 

 Just enter it in the rafflecopter thingy below for your chance to win. I’ll announce the winner on my  author FB page on 19th, after we gather up all the items on list.   Tomorrow’s stop will be at the lovely T.L Reeve’s blog.

S.E.X. Review~ Under His Domme's Control by Dakota Trace

Steven has slipped up by lying to his wife, now it's up to his Mistress to bring him back on the straight and narrow. But when he finds out the price for his deception will he still surrender?













Is it possible to read a thirty-some page novella and be scorched? Hell, yes! That’s what transpired in Dakota Trace’s new short, Under His Domme’s Control.

Steven has been a very bad boy-caught lying to his mistress and now must reap what he’s sowed.

As always the sex was sizzling as Ms. Trace took us from the greasy garage where Steven worked to the playroom where he and his mistress/wife, Hope, lived.

All too many times a D/s story is written with the man as the dominant, but Ms. Trace harnessed her inner goddess and created a strong, affectionate and loving woman-Hope- into a take-charge sexy creature whose desire was to pleasure her husband first and then herself. In my humble opinion many are fearful of writing or reading a Domme-driven tale because they believe a woman in charge can only be considered a bitch. Not the case, and Dakota Trace is not afraid to takes chances.

The D/s relationship worked for Steven and Hope, allowing him to release his control and for Hope to assert herself, drawing upon both their inclinations.

The writing was superb, flowed and gave the reader insight into the world of D/s, female style.

Kudos to Ms. Trace for writing another winner and making me turn down the air conditioner- this reader almost overheated.

S.E.X. Review~ Safeword Interrupted by Dakota Trace

A Dom who thinks he has it all… 

Deacon Willis has lusted after his friend, Bethany for years – but has kept his distance, not wanting to alienate one of the most important women in his life. Not only is she the manager of his bar, she’s also the best friend he’s ever had. But all that changes one fateful night when he realizes Bethany’s desires run just as dark as his own. Once witnessing her need to submit, he’s determined to show her, that only he can give her what she needs. He’ll be her Dom and she’ll be his cherished submissive. Hopefully it will be enough to make her happy, because he’ll never be a family man. 

A sub who’s about to lose it all… 

Bethany Adams has been in love with Deacon for years, but knows his reputation. He’s a love ‘em and leave them type, never settling on one woman long. It isn’t until she walks in on him dominating another woman that she realizes he could give her everything she needs – a firm hand and a strong man that can fulfill every one of her submissive fantasies. But what happens when her deepest fantasy becomes a reality? 

Will Deacon stick around to be a father to his child…or will he walk away, taking her heart with him?




Safeword Interrupted was a well-written and developed friends to lovers drama in only the style and fashion deliverable by Dakota Trace. Deacon and Bethany have been friends and co-workers for ages. Upon losing a bet, Bethany agrees to enter a temporary D/s relationship with Deacon. Intrigued by what she saw in his office and with the yearnings she now feels, Bethany has little choice but to allow the fantasy to play out. For Bethany though, the fantasy becomes all too real as her feelings for Deacon flourish and unbeknownst to her, the playboy Dominant has taken his role in her life very seriously and to the next level.

As always, Ms. Trace elicited a myriad of emotions from this reader as I forged ahead through the book. If truth be known, Deacon was not my favorite character and I lamented over my inclination to despise him. His arrogance and self-indulgence left me seething with a desire for Bethany to toss him aside. But, patience being a virtue and Ms. Trace being aptly talented, my heart soon opened to Deacon and his misgivings—much of which stemmed from his childhood—Deacon soon won me over as a man of his word and a dominant.

Bethany’s characterization was a strong woman who fought for what she believed to be right and in the best interest of herself, her unborn child and even Deacon.

Together the two characters waded through the trials and tribulations of beginning a D/s relationship and Bethany’s reluctance to step into the lifestyle. Dakota Trace never leaves a stone unturned in her research of a topic and her mastery of transferring emotions from character to reader is flawless.
Kudos Dakota!

Excerpt

Deacon waited to see if Bethany would obey or if she’d continue to cling to the sheet and her false modesty.

Or if she’s going to force my hand. Dear lord let her force my hand.

Images of how he’d make her pay for her rebellion flashed before his eyes. His favorite of course, was bending her over his lap and warming her ass. But she dashed those thoughts when she dropped the bedding, letting it pool around her ankles. He didn’t bother to stop the soft groan from escaping his chest. Standing in a pool of sunlight, her lush curves backlit with her blond hair shining like an angel’s halo, she reminded him of heaven on earth. One he was definitely going to explore once they got back from the caverns.

“Now come here.” It was difficult but he kept his tone even.

She took halting steps towards him, finally stopping about three feet from him.

“Closer.”

She inched closer, then stopped. He sighed dramatically before wrapping his arm around her waist and pulling her up against him. “Better. Now kiss me.”

Her lips parted, and for a moment, he thought she would baulk but instead she lifted up on tiptoe and pressed her mouth to his. He savored the rich taste of coffee on her lips while she pressed a bit harder. He waited to see what she’d do. How far she’d go. He almost caved when her tongue rubbed over the seam of his lips before darting back into her mouth. If she thought that her little tease would coax him into playing, she was sadly mistaken. He continued to let her kiss him, not actively participating until a low frustrated moan escaped her. Then he took mercy on her, spearing his tongue inside her mouth. She gave a happy sigh as her tongue rubbed over his.

By the time he lifted his head, he was precariously close to saying screw it and tossing her back onto the bed. Only his plans of seducing not only her body but her mind as well kept him from giving into his baser urges. He had a plan. He drew back and slowly released her.

“Go shower, sweetheart. Before I forget my good intentions.” He curled his fingers into fists. Anything to keep from reaching out and taking what was his – at least for the duration of Spring Break.
