Title: Unexpected Protector (Isthmus Alliance #2)
Author: Sloan Johnson
Release Day: November 2013

Synopsis:

Everyone makes mistakes in life. Unfortunately, Holly Richards has become an expert at taking the wrong path in life. This time, she may have gone so far that she has alienated the one person who has always been there for her. Will she be able to make the right decision for once in her life?

Tommy Reed’s world shifted the night he found Holly Richards lying in a pool of blood on the ground. For reasons he can’t explain, he feels the need to protect Holly from her own past. In the process, he’s hoping to also teach her that there is more to D/s than releasing pent up emotions. 

Life isn’t easy for the former-junkie and the cop. Some of those closest to Tommy are less than thrilled with his devotion to Holly. Those who pressured Holly into her former life are worried she’ll share what she knows. Is there any way for both of them to come away from the situation unscathed?

My Review

5 of 5 Unexpected Protector

Let me start by saying that Sloan is a genius by bringing together two things I love erotica and the depth of a dom/sub relationship. I mean Sloan had me on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading Holly and Tommy's story. I loved Holly from Unexpected Angel even though people were mad at her for betraying her family and friends but she had her reasons and let me tell you addiction is no joke to kick so I commend her for trying and keeping clean even though she has all this chaos going on in her life.

Right off the bat we start where Unexpected Angel left off with Holly lying in a pool of her blood and taken to the hospital. She realizes she needs to get her shit straight before she kills herself. But life is so hard and difficult and what adds to it is she is not sure she is worthy to be living because of all the pain she has caused and all the hurt she has done to her family and friends. But the one light at the end of the tunnel for her is her savior Tommy. She knows she is done living the wrong life but what can Tommy do to save her?

Tommy has lived a tough life and sometimes it has shown him things he rather have not seen but he takes it day by day. So when he sees Holly he decides to help her and wants to get to know her because she pulls something in his heart. Tommy is not sure what it is or why but he is determined to help Holly. In the process of helping her out he falls for her and wants to explore this dom/sub relationship. But what happens when the past collides with the future and Tommy's demons come back? Can he stand strong or will he walk away? Is Holly strong enough to face his demons and heal him just like he is healing her?

Sloan the ending just cruel I need book three like ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Excerpt:

I nod, my throat constricted by the emotion I’m not used to feeling. 

“Good girl,” he whispers in my ear before drawing the lobe into his mouth, sucking and nipping. He continues working his way down my neck, biting my collarbone harder than I’m used to. I jerk in surprise, but not in pain. 

“Don’t stop,” I beg him. My mind doesn’t seem to process the fact that he’s on the wrong end of my body to make my core clench tight. I never knew before now that it’s possible to be driven to climax without any direct contact with either my nipples or pussy. I scream his name as my head falls back, eventually allowing my head to come back to rest on his shoulder. 

“Such a responsive girl,” he praises me as he holds me close to him.

“What about you?” I ask when my breathing returns to normal.

“Spanking,” I say, my voice barely audible. 

“What was that? You need to speak up.” 

“I want you to spank me,” I whisper a little bit louder. I don’t recognize my strained voice. 

“Spanking how? You said you weren’t into pain, but now you’re saying you want me to spank you. Do you mean lightly, teasing you as I run my fingers through your pussy. Or are you willing to let me push you to your limit, spanking you hard with my bare hand or possibly a belt, thrusting my fingers into your throbbing core until you come so hard your juices are dripping down your thighs?”

Hearing him list the different ways he could turn my ass red brings my body to life. I feel myself growing wetter with every suggestion, not wanting but needing to feel the sensations he describes. 

“I want that,” I admit meekly. As I sit next to him, our bodies barely touching, I resist the urge to climb into his lap, pushing fabric to the side and taking what I need at this moment. “I need you to show me that pain can be pleasure.”

“Are you sure?” He asks sincerely. “I can respect the fact that you said you don’t want pain. I won’t lie and say I don’t enjoy inflicting it to an extent, but if that’s not something you crave, it won’t be fun for either of us.”

I look him in the eye, wanting him to see and feel the sincerity of my words. “You might be the only man I have ever trusted enough to explore that with.”

He wraps his arms around me, nearly pulling me off my stool. “I’m honored that you feel that way, babygirl. What else?” He urges me to continue. I shift in my seat, feeling a damp spot forming in my panties. If the thought of him doing these things to me affects me so deeply, I’m going to be slipping over myself when he’s actually touching my body.

Synopsis:

Tasha Skinner finally shed the baggage of a failed marriage. Now, she’s looking forward to a night of margaritas and man-bashing. Tasha’s friends have other plans, including Leather, Lace and liberation.

Dylan Caprese didn’t want to go to Marquee, but he and his friends were on a mission. They took it upon themselves to make sure things didn’t get out of hand when wannabe Doms mixed alcohol with playtime at the monthly Leather and Lace night.

From the moment he set eyes on Tasha, he knew there was something different about her. She wasn’t some bondage babe who thought she knew what it meant to be into BDSM. She was much, much worse; she was innocent and trusting. He can tell she is something precious.

When Tasha’s past threatens to destroy her, Dylan begins to realize that while their paths have never crossed, their lives most definitely have. Will he be able to save her before it’s too late?
