For A Reason by Jessie G.
For A Reason Blurb:
Former Marine and full time big brother, Bull Connor, spends his days helping those in need of a second chance and his nights fighting the inner demons that won’t let go. During a routine tow he comes face to face with the only person who refuses to need him and the one man he wishes would.
As a throw away, Ian Jones is used to being alternately overlooked or ridiculed but hasn’t given up on the idea that with just one chance he could turn it all around. Rescued by the one man who neither overlooks nor ridicules him, he longs to be more than a man in need, but can he be the man Bull loves?
Ian isn’t pining for the family he’s never known but when they descend, unwanted and uninvited, Bull must prove that he’s the man who will protect Ian’s long neglected heart by sharing the demons that torment his wounded soul.
For A Reason R Rated Excerpt:
Ian hung his head, his breathing erratic as Bull softly stroked his back and legs, just letting his fingertips graze the sensitive flesh. “A good lover knows every inch of his partner’s body inside and out. He should take the time to arouse them slowly, to find every trigger point and ensure that the experience only brings pleasure.”
Parting those cheeks, he didn’t do anything more than look for a full minute, waiting to feel Ian squirm uncomfortably. “A real man would start with a kiss.” He leaned in and circled the exposed hole with his tongue, lapping and probing until Ian’s long legs trembled. “Arousing and soothing the flesh of his lover, hoping they will be receptive to their partner’s touch.”
After slicking his fingers with lube, Bull circled the tight bundle of nerves and nudged one finger inside as he felt Ian yield to his penetration. Sinking deeper, it was all he could do not to groan when Ian did. “Touch is tremendously important between lovers, it creates a connection that speaks of want without words. My want speaking to yours.”
Gently he eased another finger in, encouraged by the strangled whimpers filling the room. Slowly, he pulled out almost all the way before sliding home again until Ian couldn’t contain his cries of pleasure. “Being attuned to the sounds his lover makes, the partner learns what brings the most pleasure and takes that knowledge to heart. His lover’s pleasure becomes more important than his own and he lives to hear every whimper, every moan, and every harsh breath until it’s a symphony in his head. He wants to hear it every night, encourage it with every kiss and caress until it is an addiction that must be fed.”
As he continued to finger fuck Ian, deliberately stroking the sensitive gland with every pass, he was pleased to see a drop of precum bead on the head of Ian’s cock. “The sounds you make are music to my ears. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of hearing them.”

i’m not sure how i’ve missed this author or this series but i’m so glad it finally fell in my lap. when i was halfway through this book i went to goodreads to see what else jessie has written. turns out this is book 2 in this series and i bought book one back in june. i seriously don’t know if i can read book 1 any
time soon because this book was so good i’m afraid i might be disappointed if book 1 isn’t as good. i really didn’t want this story to ever end.
let me start my review by saying that my answer to my kids when something happens they don’t understand is ‘everything happens for a reason, even if we don’t see or understand why”. i absolutely love that this was a main theme in such a wonderful but heavy story.
so…ian. i’m not sure there are words to describe the pain you feel when reading about his life. it is a physical pain that is almost incomprehensible, especially for a mother. seeing how strong and how wonderful
he is when bull brings him out of his shell is truly amazing considering what he went through. it was hard to remember that this is just fiction – i so wanted to be able to reach out and just hug ian several times in this book.
and that brings us to bull…big, beautiful bull. the way he loved ian was absolutely magical. the way he takes care of everyone in the book makes you a little jealous if you don’t have someone like that in your life. he was the perfect match for ian and melts your heart on every page.
the supporting cast is fantastic and i sincerely hope every one of them gets a story – saul, javier, chris, liam, billy, owen, bella, craig…and maybe even a novella of maddie & keiran 🙂 – and now i have to go back and read about ric and davin.
jessie thank you for such a wonderful story. i look forward to more great things from you.
Past Hurts (Sizzling Miami #1)
Blurb:
Abandoned by his mother and raised by a judgmental, homophobic father on the unforgiving streets of Overtown, Davin Monroe knows a lot about survival and little about love. As heir to the family business, Alaric Bennett’s innate strength makes him the pillar upon which the family problems fall, but leaves him emotionally abandoned by those that need him.
One chance meeting and five beautiful years together do not prepare them for the dark, depraved jealousy threatening their hard earned happiness. Now a killer has forced Detective Monroe to face the past and the only man his heart has ever wanted. With only one shot at redemption, Alaric is determined to uncover to truth and bring his lover home.
But when discovering the one secret that has kept them apart for eight years unravels an entire hidden life, can they survive the revelations that follow?

Author Bio:
Before I am a writer, I am a voracious reader who panics when there are less than fifty books on her wish list. That wasn’t always the case and shamefully I must admit there was a time early in life that I hated to read. After throwing every possible age appropriate book my way a relative snuck me my first romance and I have been hooked ever since.
My love of reading morphed into a desire to write and I still have old notebooks and floppy disks full of ideas and partially written plots. While earning my computer degree, and starting on my career and family, I didn’t write a single word. It wasn’t until I was buying school supplies for my oldest son that the itch came back. Oddly, I can sniff out the stationary aisle in any store and have been known to skip an item on the grocery list in favor of a shiny new notebook.
With the advent of social media I filled up my feeds with my favorite authors hoping to glean some words of wisdom as I pounded out half formed ideas with alarming regularity. Two repetitive themes emerged: To be a great writer you must read a lot and your butt must be in the chair every day like it’s a job. Even if you write dribble, you’re writing. The more you write, the easier it will be to write and the better you will get at writing.
Every day I took the time to write dribble, every day I told myself I was a writer, and on January 28, 2014 I woke up in the middle of the night with Past Hurts pounding in my head. Within two months, I also had the foundation for Books 2 and 3 and the Sizzling Miami Series was born.
When I’m not reading or writing, I own a successful web design business. My husband and I live in Central Florida and we’re enjoying life as parents of adults. Whenever possible we hit the road on the motorcycle and dare anyone to find us.

Thank you so very much for hosting this blog stop and for your awesome review. I’m so glad you loved my men and I’ve got my fingers crossed that you’ll love Ric & Davin, too. I’m a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. Good or bad, even if it’s just a lesson to learn, there’s always a reason.
i’m sure i will love them but ian and bull will be hard to beat! i CANNOT wait for the next book! the countdown has begun!
LOL no pressure there 🙂
