The Kiss-Nichelle Gregory HEARTS AND DIAMONDS

“You’re a great cook, Nia.”

She smiled as he took a bite of garlic bread. “Thanks.” No need to tell him this was probably her best meal. “You’re haven’t touched your wine.”

Quin glanced at his glass. “I don’t usually drink when I’m working a case.”

“Oh. Do you want something else to drink?” Nia held her breath as his eyes flitted across the minimal cleavage showing in the wrap style dress. Her nipples pebbled even more and this time, she was sure he noticed.

“Water’s fine.”

She got up, walked the short distance from the dining room to the kitchen and took a deep breath once out of his viewing range. One thing had been confirmed for her tonight. She wanted him…bad.

The water sloshed over the top of the overfilled glass and she poured some out into the sink.

Dammit, keep it together, girl.

“So you’re the baby of the family?”

Nia jumped at the sound of his deep voice carrying from the dining room and more water spilled. With a frustrated curse, she threw paper towels over the mess and walked towards him with the water. “Yep, I’ve got two older brothers. One lives in Indy and the oldest lives in DC.”

“Parents?” He turned in his chair and extended his hand for the glass.

“Don’t you have all of this in a file about me somewh—” Nia gasped as her mouse slipper slipped beneath her and she stumbled towards Quin. The water hit him seconds before she fell to her knees in front of him. “I am so sorry.” She blinked in sheer mortification as the liquid seeped into the dark fabric on his thighs. Her gaze drifted further up his leg to see the unmistakable bulge inches away from her.

“It’s okay.”

Nia dragged her eyes up from his pants to meet his heated gaze. “No, it’s not.”

Quin ran his finger down the tip of her nose. “It is. I needed to cool off anyway.”

A ribbon of desire coursed along every nerve ending in her body as he stood up and offered both hands. “Let me help you up.”

She took them, visualising an actual spark of electricity from his touch as he yanked her up from the ground. “Thanks, Quin.” She lifted her chin, saw the same longing in his eyes and something twisted in her stomach as they stared at one another. She laced her fingers with his as time stood still. “Kiss me.”

The whispered request shocked her. She waited with baited breath for him to move, her words, her heart lay before him. Just when she would’ve pulled away, he groaned and pulled her against his chest.

His hands skimmed up her arms, into her hair as he kissed her. She melted into him, wrapped her arms around his neck and welcomed his fierce kiss. He took over and she wanted him to. Her moan of pleasure only encouraged him to delve deeper, tasting and stroking her tongue as he backed her up against the dining room wall. She could barely breathe, lost in the rhythm of his masterful kisses. One hand left her hair to cup her ass, kneading the soft curve beneath her dress. She ran her hands through his hair, loving the feel of the thick texture between her fingers as he pressed his hard cock against her belly.

“You’re so sexy,” Quin said, breaking away to look down at her.

“Ditto.” She closed her eyes as he claimed her lips again, this time in a soft, sensual caress that left her boneless. He ended the kiss and her body craved more. “Quin…” She sighed as his lips brushed her temple.

“Nia—”

The shrill sound of her phone ringing broke the moment, stopped her from making another brazen request of his body. She pulled away from his embrace to reach for the handheld laying on the dining room table. “Hello?”

“I needed those diamonds.”

Nia froze.

The cold voice on the other end of the line was unmistakable.

“Tess?” She whipped around to look at Quin already on alert as he tapped his watch and indicated for her to keep on talking. “Where are you?”

“Closer than you think.”

The line went dead as Nia stared at Quin. She handed him the phone in a daze.

I give Doll 4 Strong Shots 

I’m going to start this review with an explanation as to why I gave it four strong shots here, but five stars on Goodreads. To put it simply, I’m not crazy about short stories. I always find them a tease, like going to the bakery and getting a sample of the most divine concoction. The taste of decadence is just enough for you to want more, enough to leave you salivating at just the idea of another bite, but they won’t give you more. Actually, you had the last sample and the baker’s gone on vacation.

The four shots for a short story is me sulking. If Ms. Gregory cooks up a sequel, I give her another shot—hell, I’ll probably give her a bottle. She’s just that good.

From page one, the utter surrender of the main character to her flagrant desires drew me in. You have to admire a woman who, despite some brief moments of uncertainty, decides to go after what she wants. I absolutely loved this line:

This was her gift to herself. She wasn’t backing out now.  

With sexual tension thick enough to smother the unsuspecting, this story explores the sensual side of BDSM, the pleasure of being at another’s mercy, the thrill of being denied until pure need just about tears you apart. Rena Venoy is a naughty little sex doll, but it’s fun watching her antics and I enjoyed seeing her learn her lesson. The toys and tools of the lifestyle are used in a way that’s both sexy and fun, and I really enjoyed the TPE (total power exchange) of the dolls’ role.

Despite the fact that this book was short, the ending was quite satisfying. This book is sweet, sexy fun with a bit of an edge—a perfect read at the end of a hard day, before you curl up to…sleep, that’s it, a nice bedtime story. So long as your prepared for erotic dreams.  ;)
