Uncaged by Harper Sloan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Its the return of our fav little man. Cohen!


First off, let me say thanks to the amazing Harper Sloan for allowing me to have an ARC. I am more than happy to share my Cage family ride.
So if you're not familiar with the Corps Security series, WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN, then stop here and go


Melissa and Greg (Beast) are going strong and still having some of the hottest sex on this side of Mother Earth, pregnant belly or not. The love that this couple has for each other especially on Greg's end.


It's like Buttercup & Wesley their love is so strong. (Princess Bride reference)



Cohen is still the source of all the comic relief. But tragedy strikes and we are all forced to take a seat to the unfortunate events that occur to this family. If you've never seen a strong Alpha male love HARD then you need to read this book because Greg does it so well. The devastation, heartache and hopelessness is palpable. He...loves...his...woman [his family].





I cried, I laughed, I sighed - this book took me everywhere and I loved it. And finally, when you don't think you can take it anymore.



And the reader and the Cage family get what they want.

Beck (Corps Security #3) by Harper Sloan

 

Synopsis:

**Warning** This book is intended for a mature reading** 

~DEE~ 

I’ve always been good at wearing masks. Not letting anyone see the real me. I’m content being the happy-go-lucky best friend. The strong willed boss. The independent woman who doesn’t need a man. 

But the truth is I’m just as broken as the rest of you. I’m terrified that all it will take is one person to make all my carefully constructed walls crumble into fine dust. So I guard my heart with everything I have. Determined to never let anyone get close enough to hurt me again. 

All is perfect until HE walks into my life. No… he doesn’t just walk. He struts his good-looking, sex-oozing self-right into my space and demands that I see HIM. Making me want what I know I can’t have. 

So I did the only thing I know how to do. 
I run. 
But he just won’t let me go. 

~BECK~ 

The second I see her, I know she will be mine. I see past the gorgeous smiles and heart-stopping laughter. I see HER. She doesn’t want me to know her secrets or the past that haunts her, but I make it my mission to find out. 

To make her mine. 

She can run all she wants, but it will never be far enough to stop me from coming after her. 
She’s it for me and she knows it. 
She’s just too scared to admit it. 

Review:

Once again I am so honored & jazzed to be one of the first few people to get ahold of Beck and Dee's story thru Twinsie Talk Book Tours.

The first thing I think its very important to understand is that this is not a fluff piece. An easy read. There are books that are emotionally hard to read and this is one of them. I know I wasn't the only one hearing Danity Kane's Damaged as I read this. Dee's background is so troubled and so dark that you can't help, but want the best for her. (Along with some serious therapy) The world is not all unicorns and glitter, and just because you have been introduced to the man of your dreams doesn't always mean you two are the right fit at that direct time. I say this, not as a deterrent, but as a reason why a person should read this book.

 I am familiar with the entire series (I did review Cage when it was released as well). It is always nice to return to a favored series and visit known characters. From the getgo Beck and Dee's relationship was doomed. Dee was definitely not ready for what Beck was willing to give to her and wouldn't be ready for sometime. 

 For this book, the pace was slow enough for you to actually see the progress of Beck/Dee, but not so slow that the book was in danger of falling into the dreaded DNF (did not finish pile). And one of the most important parts of this book, Harper reminded me of Stephen King because in his books no one is safe. Anyone and everyone is vulnerable. Even though what happened - happened I was relieved to see that his brother was welcomed into the circle. I cannot wait to see how he is incorporated in this series; a series which get's better and better with each release.

Cage (Corp's Security #2) by Harper Sloan

Synopsis:

**Warning** This book is intended for a mature reading**

"Alpha heroes you'll want to kidnap and keep, heroines to root for, and sizzling love scenes with emotional punch." 
Carly Phillips, NY Times Bestselling Author

Greg Cage was born to protect. While growing up, he was his mother and sister’s shield against the world… until he failed. For the last decade, he has carried that guilt and need for vengeance around… until it was 
stripped from him. Now, with his best friend getting married and no longer needing his protection, he is even more lost, completely adrift, and
 desperate for some control. All he has ever known was how to protect: his family, his friends, and his country. Can he go against everything he has ever known, and give up that control?

Melissa Larson will never let anyone hold the reins in her life. She has 
been the rock in her family for more years than she can remember, and
 the fight to keep them together is her main priority right now. She has
 always been fiercely independent and proud. The last thing she will ever do is ask for someone else’s help. But when that choice is out of her 
control, forcing her to rely on others to save her and her family, and pick up the pieces that are left, will she be able to let someone else be her
 strength?

The second Greg locks eyes with Meli, he knows that she is someone he needs. Someone he craves. Meli knew the second she met Greg that he would be nothing but trouble and heartache. Her life takes an
unexpected turn, and that bitch Fate is back to wreak more 
havoc on another member of the Corps family.

All hell breaks loose, leaving Greg no choice but to call in a favor. He 
hooks back up with his old friend Braxxon Breaker from the Breakneck MC. Together, they make sure that nothing threatens anyone Greg loves 
again.

CAGE is a complete story with a HEA.

I feel so honored and jazzed to have been chosen to read and review an 
ARC of Cage by Harper Sloan thru Twinsie Talk Book Tours. 

If you are not familiar with Corps Security books you’re going to NEED to stop right here and go back to read book 1, Axel. Now after reading Axel I
 think I can honestly say everyone, who is a fan that is, was anticipating 
Cage’s story. I knew from Book 1 that Cage had a close connection to Izzy 
because she reminded him of his sister, but we didn’t know the full story behind it.

The first thing that you need to understand is the piercing that Greg Cage 
has. Please Google Apadravya, Reverse PA and Pubic piercings.  (Male Genital Piercings) Cage is tatted up and pierced up. :sighs: Moving on….

I will attempt to step through my Cage experience as best as possible without setting off a SPOILER alert.

First warning: It did not take 5 pages for me to be exposed to Cage’s sexy 
world. No ma’am. Headboard banging and wrists held behind her back. 
Are you kidding me? Cage is already sounding delicious. My preconceived 
notions about Cage on ‘brother status’, instituted from Book 1, have 
promptly exited stage right. 
And now that the reader has been informed that Greg Cage is a sex machine
you are prepared for his introduction and behavior to Melissa.
 I loved the Melissa character.
 She didn’t take sh*t from Cage and she seemed to always know what she 
wanted. She didn’t let him run the show from Jump Street – he had to ‘earn’ the privilege of dominating her sexually. Personally, I enjoyed the 
similarities between Cage and Melissa. The unnatural deaths of their sisters,
 along with the instant sex connection, are the glue that holds the two
 together. Besides Cage being so protective and dominant the best part of 
him is his ability to love and open himself to the possibility of it. This is the first book I have read where the hero is ready for that white picket 
fence fantasy. (The song Ready for Love by India Arie comes to mind)

Besides the sister connection they have & there is so much right there – 
there is also the issue of a crazy ex named Mandy. She is one crazy broad and I will leave it at that. There is also the relationship between Melissa’s
 nephew Cohen and Cage. If you don’t want to sigh and aahh endlessly do
 not read this book. Greg Cage is the PERFECT man. Who can live up to 
his perfection? The last thing I’ll mention is the mini crossover of characters between Harper Sloan and fellow Independent author Crystal Spears
 (author of the Breakneck series). I read both authors so I was all for this 
collaboration. I won’t spoil it, but suffice to say this book was AMAZING 
and Harper Sloan writes some mind-blowing heat stroke inducing fiction.

And because I want to - I'll explain my Cage experience with gifs...

 So at the first mention of piercings and the hotness that is Cage. I was literally melting

The fact that Melissa was trying to act like she didn't want him killed me, but I understood why. From the moment the two were introduced I began to plot her downfall. 

Melissa and Cage at the club


Eye f$%kin' ensues


And that's where we are introduced to "that crazy b____" Mandy (a previous character)

My prayers are answered & Cage and Melissa finally become intimate.

 NC-17 warning SO DELICIOUS
 

Any who! And because we need some more drama Mandy shows up and it is ON..

Ratchet hour aside we get introduced to Cohen. His and Cage's relationship is so freaking cute.
And because what would the plot be without someone running their mouths and spilling the beans. Jeez Mandy, get a clue.












 Until finally, fast forward (don't want to ruin it for you, but I'll just say BREAKNECK)

Axel (Corps Security #1) by Harper Sloan

 

A love so overwhelming and powerful that years later it still haunts you....That is the background for this book. I was introduced to this author at the same time that I discovered Crystal Spears (my review of Seize Me ). Izzy is so deserving of love and there's this mountain of anticipation when she and Axel are reunited. I know I wanted all of the secrets Izzy had to just come spilling out. In this book you are also introduced to Corps Security. Wowza! All of the men in that agency sound heartbreaking sexy especially Izzy's brother from another mother" Greg Cage. I know we, as readers, can expect naughty delicious things from Greg. 

Let me just say that everything I wanted to happen - happened in this book. It may not have happened on my 'give it to me now' time frame, but I was suitably rewarded. Izzy and Axel burn up the sheets. Izzy has been carrying around so many demons and is damaged in such a way that, in my opinion, the only one to fix her is Axel. Her first love, Axel and his monster truck. Harper Sloan pulled me into this world so effectively I feel like I know all of the characters, as if they work right next to me. I don't want to go into too much detail for fear I'll just SPOILER the HELL out of this review, but when I say Axel is one dirty talking Alpha male I am oh so serious. I absolutely have to resort to Scandal GIFs to explain my experience with this book.

Its like at first Izzy was trying to deny the chemistry still existed...

And then Axel started his seduction

Until finally, Axel went and got his woman.

And no holds barred....

And then there was more of...

Until finally I was literally in the bed screaming like a loon.

And then I hit the last page and...
